We just took DD to an open play gym thing this morning where they have a big foam pit for the kids to jump and play in. DD spent almost the whole hour there. She conked out within 10 minutes of going into the crib for her nap. She usually take almost a whole hour to pass out, if at all these days, so it's SO nice for a change.
But now my mind is running like crazy with a growing to do list especially as I'm trying to keep up with the threads. I think it just sunk in that I'm 30 weeks along now and there's still plenty of things to take care of, and nesting is just getting stronger. AH!
@pshaortao The need to nest has really set in for me as well! I feel like I'm starting to annoy my sisters, mom, MIL & fiancé with very small things. Yes, I know they are small, but that doesn't mean I don't want them to get done. lol

Part of me is like "we have clothes, diapers, and a place to sleep, so we're all set," but the other part is like "you still need to buy that little basket for the bathroom!" which is so unlike me to even think! let alone be upset about!!
I'm at 30 weeks, which is like 3/4th done, it's so nuts!
Well I'll now I'm pissed bc I pull up to my house and some truck belonging to someone helping them move is blocking my driveway. There are a million places to park on the street that aren't blocking anyone's driveway. Who does that??? If the moving truck was blocking the driveway bc that's where they needed to let furniture out I feel like I could let that slide but it's just your random friend blocking my driveway and I'm so annoyed. What if I were in the garage and you were blocking me in? I don't want to say anything bc who wants to start on the wrong foot with next door neighbors just bc I'm a grouchy pregnant lady.

There are a lot of little DQ rules in car seat ultra orthodoxy and if you try to abide by them all to the letter you're just going to drive yourself nuts. At some point you have to decide what you're comfortable with.

I truly appreciate the concerns, experiences, and thoughts. I don't see anything visibly wrong, not even stress marks. Maybe if we take it somewhere to make sure it is installed correctly in the car they can check it more thoroughly? I'm 99.9% sure nothing is wrong with it either, but still overly cautious.

When my seat fell twice off the high garage shelf, there wasn't a mark on it. Graco said that the impact from a fall is considered the same as the impact from an accident and that there's no way to tell if it's no longer safe for use. Car Seats for the Littles are super conservative in their advice (so take this with a grain of salt), but I know they often cite that no one can visually inspect and confirm.

I fainted this morning so I had to go in for an U/S before my regularly scheduled appointment. Every thing looked good with the baby so the OB ordered some blood work to check my iron again (just had a CBC 2 weeks ago). I drink 6 bottles of water a day but when I mentioned how much ice I eat (4-5 32oz cups of Sonic Ice) she said that could be a sign of anemia. I have also lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks so I may be seeing the nutritionist again this pregnancy since I have been eating and not been sick.

I totally understand the issue with people saying it could be dropped etc. But honestly... how do you know that Jimmy stock boy didn't drop any of the boxes as he was going to put them out on the floor. Or the UPS guy could have just thrown boxes out of the truck in a hurry. Yes you may be able to see damage to the box... but maybe not. You really can never truly know if your car seat was dropped or not. I would consider it a great deal personally!

Also, the boxes are supposed to provide the most protection. So if a stock boy did throw it, it's in the safest packaging for it. ETA: and if a box was visibly damaged, I wouldn't be comfortable buying it either.

The sun finally came out today! It's warm (68!! and it was snowing two days ago lol), bright blue skies. I'm so ready for spring and summer.
i did use my Doppler and she's got a good HR. I listened for 4-5 min and it was very steady in the high 130/low 140s which is basically where she's been at all my appointments. I'm thinking I'm overreacting? im ready for her to be on the outside so I can watch her breathe! (But not until more cooking!)
Just keep track and call your doctor if you don't feel movement go back to normal. I'd rather call the doctor than be wondering or in doubt.

Definitely call to be better safe than sorry. Or do what you did, have some juice or a snack and do another hour of counts. Also, I've learned which times of day are most active; do you know what these times are for you? Maybe keep an eye on when those times are, and you can be better reassured when you feel movements then, know what I mean? Hope you feel better soon!
I guess I just wanted to post to say I'm there with you! It's scary no matter what the stage of pregnancy and I hear it's scary when they're outside too
