*cue craving for waffles*

Oh man, I seriously want waffles now

@doxiemoxie212 I'm thinking waffles for dinner now!

My TW goes to my Dad. I wore a sweatshirt over Thanksgiving that says "the turkey isn't the only thing in the oven" to tell them that I'm pregnant. He wanted to get some pictures so we took some of him and his wife and me and MH. At that time he asked if they could put it in his wife's family calendar. Her brother that puts it together would be the only one to see it before the whole family gets it at Christmas which I said was fine. We're going to send out Christmas cards and put it on social before the rest of them would get the calendars.

Now, last night my dad texts me asking if he can put the photo in their Christmas card. I didn't want to make a big deal about it because they are the asshats that put a whole letter with the Christmas card telling everyone about all the stuff that happened with the family that year so I'm sure it will just be included with my SIL being pregnant too and all the other news but like rly!?!?! Why do you have to be the one to get all the glory and congrats? Now I feel like we are in a race with them to send out our cards first so that the people who would get both get ours first.

@krashke that's so annoying. Definitely an asshat move. You should be the one getting all the glory and congrats. You're the one doing all the hard work! Can you ask them to hold off a few days? May be the letter writing will hold them up a bit.

My boss is the TW today. I'm almost through making January's schedule for 20 rotating shift pharmacists and he decides everyone is going salary Jan 1st. This totally changes the way I schedule because now everyone is going to pretty much dip after their 8 hours whereas before people would stay until it was done. It's fine and all, but now I have like 2 days to completely come up with new rotations and figure out how the F I'm gonna make this work.

@krashke That's really annoying. I get they are excited but it's your news to tell. I could see my Dad doing something similar, so I get where you're coming from.

@amys614 I hate that kind of shit at work becuase you know he probably palnned on doing this for awhile and just didn't communicate it you, the one making the schedule. Lack of communication is a huge pet peeve of mine!

AFM, I told my ob at my appt we were not interested in any screenings at the time, and she sent me for a viability u/s. They included an NT measurement in the scan, which measured high. I got a call yesterday about it being a "soft marker" for congenital cardiac issues and I should go the bloodwork and have a level II anatomy scan. Of course, this news is unsettling. My TW about the whole thing is that NONE of these tests are diagnostic, they are screenings that give probability of risk. Which I expressed I didn't want. I know she had to tell me because it was on the scan, but imo it's useless information that will just cause more stress until anatomy scan. Exactly the reason I didn't want it in the first place. So, f*ck that increased measurement. I'm enjoying this minute, this hour, this day that this baby is alive and growing inside of me.

My TW is my husband. He agreed to go to an allergist maybe four months ago, and he went, and they ran tests for dust/pet hair/etc, but for his nut allergies - which he has never had a formal test for as an adult - he had to go get a blood test at a lab. Again, it has been FOUR MONTHS, he hasn't gone, and now our deductible is going to reset in January. Like, wtf dude. It takes 15 minutes. And now we're going to California on Thursday, and he has a deal closing on Friday so, ugh, whatever, I guess we'll never know which nuts he's allergic to and which ones he isn't. Or maybe I'll just get annoyed enough that I start testing him myself. (just kidding....)

@courtyowl427, ugh, that's awful. Try not to worry too much, these screens give lots of false positives.

My TWs today are my dog and DH. Pup's got incontinence issues and pretty much always poops in her sleep, so we make her stay in the living room rather than sleeping with us. Well, DH decided to switch her dog food at the time that her old food ran out rather than mixing the two, so now her poops are rancid. Even though our bedroom door was shut and is on the second floor, I still woke up smelling it. Had to wake DH up to take care of it, even though he didn't smell it. I couldn't get the smell out of my nostrils, so I had to put perfume all over my wrists to mask it. Only thing I had on hand since i purged most of my paraben/phthalate containing products. Now my nausea's back today because I barely slept.
