I miss my husband. He has been doing a big thing at work and has been working super long hours. He was working from 4 am-10:30 pm last night. Thank god this project should be over soon!
I hate those weeks (sometimes months) when DH has a huge project due. There is zero predictability in our schedule and I have zero help in the evenings with DS. I just keep reminding myself it won't last forever.
I told my boss this morning that I'm pregnant and taking mat leave and it went well! He was really nice about it. I was super nervous about it for some reason so I feel so relieved now!
@bearwithme I don't have help in the evenings either if he isn't home and last night was apparently throw a huge fit over every little thing. I quickly lost my patience for that.
Guys, baby girl and I could really use any spare good thoughts our direction. I don't want to go into it all, but a possible major issue was picked up on my MFM u/s. I don't go back until the 7th, but please any thoughts/prayers that the doctor didn't see what she thinks she saw would be great.
@sparklingdiamond positive thoughts sent your way!!! Keep us posted.
@bearwithme yeah evenings alone suck. My husband is a CO at our county jail and works 4pm-midnight 6 days a week and then has a 3 day weekend. It makes a very hectic schedule and it gets hard having to do bedtime alone especially after a day at work. Hope your DH's work thing finishes soon and you can have a break!
@justsuzie at least you know DH means well...but he needs to trust that you know your own limits too.
@sparklingdiamond I don't know if this is pertaining to NT scan, but I did A LOT of research and the amount of times that a "problem" was discovered and turned out to be nothing was more frequent than a "problem" that was actually a "problem". I'll still be thinking of you.
@justsuzie Yes, it was during my NT scan, but since this was the MFM she did a more in depth scan and checked all the organs and everything too. The neck measurement and spine were all fine.
@sparklingdiamond, these things are so scary. When my sister was pregnant, the doctor called them and had them come for an evening appointment so she could tell them that she thought the baby had too much fluid in his brain. After a ton of anxiety, they discovered he just has a big head. He's 12 and still does. With DD1, after the anatomy scan they said she might have a heart defect. I went for a repeat scan 2 weeks later and everything was fine. The first time she was just moving a lot. Not minimizing how scary this is. Just wanted to share examples of times when things were fine. I think these items to Look out for happen a lot. Will be thinking of you and waiting for an update.
Princess @Poppy0419 I was taking a nap when the dumb mail lady laid on her horn and then came up and knocked on the door. She's lucky J slept through that -.- I couldn't go back to sleep afterwards though My everything hurts.
Anyone want a Gap Small Maternity shirt. My boobs (38D) outgrew this shirt. It's prefect for someone short to cover your butt or average height will prob fall at your waist. Great for someone who is maybe a 36C or less. I'll send it out free to a good home. PM me.
Do they make sparking cider in little single serve bottles?

@ivyvines6 same. I’ve already hit my caffeine intake for the day. And I’m going to just have to go over it. Because I don’t have time for a nap.
@bearwithme evenings alone suck. I never have help in the evening and by then I’m burnt the hell out.

@thunderberry I just told my boss too. Huge weight off of my shoulders. I still have to tell her I won’t be coming back, but baby steps!
