I don't see a new board for this yet so here it is. Hope no one minds. I don't have a sweet GIF like @anewadventure but I'm sure we have praises or steam to let out since we are all VERY close to having babies!
Re: MBF / MM 11/20/2017
MM - I had my favorite radiologist today for my 38-week size screening. I could have cried tears of joy! It was such a blessing to have her. She is the sweetest and shows actual interest in her patients instead of the Cruella I've had the last 3 times who has no bedside manner or people skills what-so-ever.
MBF - My work has had 9 MONTHS to prepare for my departure. And neither my boss nor our assistant is prepared in any way. My last day is Wednesday and my boss took PTO this week at the last minute. I get it, there is a holiday, but you've known for literally months that we would be to the wire right now and you decide to be out of office the last 3 days of the week last week and on PTO this week. You're a F*cking genius. And our assistant has blatantly said to our boss and our GM that she wants nothing to do with my duties while I'm gone. Like what?!? you were hired for this very reason or situations like this. I just don't get people. Redundancies have to be in place should something happen whether it be spontaneous change in employment (at will state) or accident. I guess my mind is just blown at how unaware and lazy people can be. I'm not even supposed to be working right now and my boss sends me an email for something due at 1PM today and just says "It's your last week you got this." Like NO! You have to learn how to do my job sometime and now might be a good time to learn.
Sorry that was so long but damn I'm heated about it.
My Magnificent Monday: Hired a housekeeper for the first time ever and she came for the first "deep clean" today. I'm so happy I could cry. We try to keep a semi-clean home but the little things (like soap scum in the tile, or realllly dusty baseboards) are chores I can't stand and THEY'RE DONE! It wasn't even that expensive and we have a decently large house. I can't believe I've never experienced this joy and wonder before. 10/10 would recommend.
And for those that have been following the MIL delivery room drama. We have finally nailed down a plan so MIl wont be there until we call her to come *whew*
We're not telling people when labor starts, and my MIL made a bunch of comments over the weekend that she wants to know. Sorry lady, but guilt trips don't work on me. She also said she wants to know so she can pray for the baby. And I'm not religious, but I'm pretty sure you can pray at any time.
@balletnerd awwww im terrified of having her on the Thursday just for it being a holiday. I would much rather have it after midnight for birthday party purposes lol. I told my mom last night i feel like if its thursday shed get sick of having the same birthday dinner every year LOL.

Baby #2 due December 2017
@abcola I feel you! I started feeling annoyingly uncomfortable around 28 weeks with this baby and this last trimester hasn't been the most fun. I wish I had some advice or light at the end of the tunnel for you, but sadly I do not. The only light for me has been that we are so close to having babies.
@elcd458 that's awesome! I keep promising myself that one day I'll have one when we get a house.
