I feel like my closet and bathroom need handicap rails to help me get up off the floors, toilet, etc.
Everyone I see says "there's no way you'll make it to March 30th", and I just know that every person who says it is adding 12 hours to this pregnancy. lol
3 miscarriages - 1 DS (6) - 1 DD (3) - #3 due March 30!
@NOLA520 Those companies do sound really cool. I was assuming they would cost too much but I should look into it just in case it's not that bad. At least it's nice knowing it will be an option someday when I have more money.
I'm feeling so weary about life in general. I'm not sure I want to live past like 40. I'm so tired of having to do things over and over already. Seriously, how many meals have I had to eat so far in this life? And I have to eat 3 of these a day even though I'm already sick and tired of most foods? Life is so made up of repetitive tasks.
Nihilism is fun... I get this way too sometimes, but it usually clears up when the weather gets warmer. To help with the food thing I've stopped making grocery lists, and I just pick out meat and a vegetable to go with it. Keeps me on my toes lol
I made the mistake of volunteering to watch an 11 month old on top of my 20 month old while people were getting more stuff from our old place. Both kids decided to poop themselves at the same time. The other kid also was the most difficult baby I've ever had to change a diaper for. I spent 15 minutes trying to put a diaper back on him.
@CCLow87 I usually stop counting kicks around 15-20 no matter how long it took (always NOT the full 2 hours). Figure if I'm supposed to get to 10 in 2 hours, I'm fine once I hit that 10.
Omg my MOTHER IS PISSING ME OFF! I can't get her to go a minute without her being psychotically obsessed with my baby. The latest? I'm supposed to go back to work a couple weeks after LO is born. I'll be doing the same thing that I am now. I'd be at the studio from 5:15-7:30, which would have me home all day on Tuesdays until 5:00, then home by 8:00 at the latest. My fiancé is switching his day offs from Thursdays to Tuesdays so he could be home with LO. My mom is pitching a fit that she isn't going to be getting to watch the baby and that she was hoping I would have come to my senses by now about being away from the baby that long while breastfeeding. I'm not sure what she was expecting to happen with her watching him instead, or for the fifteen minute break I have between classes, but I'm over it. I'm literally going to be going into labor at any point over the next couple of weeks and I have had a LOT of shit hit the fan lately. I can't deal with her baby fetish on top of it >:O
Eta: Just found out our water isn't running. We live off a well. Our landlord lives in NY. This literally just happened within the last thirty minutes. I hate my life.
Why am I more worn out and contractiony the day that I didn't do as much lifting? Yesterday I moved tons of boxes. Today I mostly walked around and watched two children who fought over who was going to be held.

Update: just woke up to the sink running. Wtf? It's cool. I'll take it. At least I can get a shower in the morning and can go to the bathroom in my house vs the store down the street.
DH is pissing me off. About to go to bed and I say "we need to cook the roast before it goes bad" and he responds with "I'm going to put it on in the morning." He then asks me how to put it on the way my mom does and with what, and I don't know so I tell him to call her in the morning. He then says, "but I asked you to text her earlier." Um, no you didn't. You asked me how she cooked it and I responded with "in the mornings before she goes to work and leaves it on until she gets home." If he wanted to know about seasonings and all that, he could have specified the first time instead of just accepting that answer. And never once did he actually tell me to text her. Now he's being defensive because he doesn't want to call her in the morning, but it is too late to text her now.
I ordered the stationary entertainer from Target.com last week and it was originally scheduled to deliver about 2 days after it shipped. It shipped from Savannah, GA which is the state I live in....yet, per the tracking log, the package has gone from GA to CA back to GA and then back to CA, then it went to OK and now it's in AL....wtactualf?
I'm sure the package is going to be a great condition if it ever actually makes it to my house in GA.
@yodiggityI hate fedex. I've shipped and received a few things from swap groups through them, and it consistently takes 3 days longer for something I ship from AZ to get to the east coast, than it does for something shipped from the east coast to AZ. How on earth does that work?
So in case anyone was wondering... You can't buy Girl Scout cookies online, but you can stalk the local Girl Scout troup's movements on their weekend selling binges >.>

I just bought cookies this past weekend again because the mom told me it was their last weekend....did I get swindled??? Maybe it varies by state...

We have warmer weather here so it might go a bit longer. Or this is their last weekend >.> omg I need to stock up!
I don't get the Girl Scouts. Why do parents want to turn their kids into salesmen? When I was a kid I hated being pressured to sell shit and as an adult I still never want to have to sell things to people.
@RoseShadow873 I was a girl scout, and our troop put very, very minimal effort into sales. Like, "Here's the form. National has prizes. Sell if you want to, or don't." We didn't set up stands or tables or anything, not even once. We preferred to spend our time earning the fun patches.

I worked with a couple Girl Scout troup's to get their dance badges. That's a cute/fun way to spend a couple hours
I swear I'd give anything for a full night of sleep and to get rid of this heartburn from the depths of hell . Today is my 30th birthday and between feeling like a cow, the discomfort/heartburn, and lack of sleep I'm going to pretend it's another 29th so I can actually celebrate next year. Not how I pictured my 30th but in 4 weeks or less I'll have my present in my arms

Happy b-day and welcome to the 30's club! And yes, keep your eye on the prize - in 4 short weeks or maybe even less she will be in your arms and you won't even remember what heartburn is like.
Happy birthday @jonesl12 !! I took preventative Tums last night because it has been getting so bad in my sleep - and for the first time in a LONG time I was fine!
There should be a rule about being pregnant on your birthday. I told DH that he's only allowed to have November through January babies from here on out. I'm not interested in being beyond uncomfortable for my birthday a third time.
I was just driving and felt super itchy/hot, so I rolled my shirt up and was looking down examining my giant belly like it held all the world's secrets... When I looked up and a big truck next to me had two guys both staring at me in amused confusion. Oops.

Bummer about heartburn...hope it passes soon!
