With the heatwave still happening here in VT, I anticipate a lot of us are going to have some weather related BFs. Put em here, ladies!
Re: Monday BF- July 2
Also i when back to sleeping with H last minute and of course everything i moved out for started again. He came to bed after me so he wakes me up getting in and wanting to cuddle and touch me. Then he was flopping around like a whale and taking the cover and most of the bed. Idk if he brushed his teeth but he better be because i don’t want to be smelling that (he has a terrible gross habit of not doing it). Oh and he left the seat up and i almost fell in. We’ll see if he gets up early to help take DS to the sitter since we never discussed it and we are both off work.
Our AC isn’t working correctly, which is dumb because the thing was brand new when we moved in here three years ago. So it’s going to be a long day trying to keep everyone cool enough.
My DS has had a fever of over 100 for over 24 hours and I’m worried that it’s like heat exhaustion or something because we were outside all weekend. So I’ll probably take him into the doctors this morning.
Sorry for the novel below!
Can I just say that I'm super annoyed with my doctor. I had seen him a few weeks ago and mentioned that I thought I had a yeast infection and he said okay and that was it and started talking about something else and so I got distracted and forgot to mention it again, this also happened at my appointment last week as well. I have been back and forth to L&D with contractions but I'm not progressing, my doctor was on vacation for 2 weeks so I saw the other doctor in the practice and she was super nice. my doctor had called something in the stop the contractions but he called in the wrong prescription and the pharmacy couldn't fill it and by the time the other doctor got the the message she said don't worry about it why are we going to bother stopping the contractions. A few weeks ago I had made an appointment with my regular doctor and I had to get back to work to cover lunches, the office was running late and so I rescheduled the appointment for the next day, when I showed up my doctor was not as nice as he usually is and I don't know if I annoyed him by rescheduling or what but it's been kind of weird ever since. I've had to call him twice about an issue and he kind of just brushes me off, my last appointment last week I had gained 5 lb in a week where I was I wasn't gaining at all for a while and he was a little concerned about possible preeclampsia but didn't seem too worried because my BP was fine. That was on a Tuesday, on Wednesday I had a horrible headache and ended up leaving work the headache lasted until Friday. I called the office on Wednesday at 10 a.m. And he never called me back, I called the office on Thursday at 2 and he never called me back I finally called on Friday evening after I went to CVS and got my blood pressure taken and I was 139 over 80 so I gave him a call he finally called me back and said don't worry about it you're fine take Tylenol for your headache and he was just very short with me. I'm feeling very annoyed that I'm so close to the end and he just is being kind of a jerk, I have an appointment with him tomorrow and we are going to schedule my induction for the end of the week, which he said that we would do last week but didn't. I just don't know what to do I feel like if I do go into spontaneous labor at home I don't even want to call him. Maybe it's a pregnancy hormones, but my husband is also annoyed with him. Just had to vent a bit, this doctor is supposed to be amazing and everybody loves him and raves about him but I just not feeling the same experience as everybody else seems to have.
I feel like I can't even complain about the heat because I literally refuse to leave my air conditioned house.
You’ve got to be kidding me right!?! I’m thinking the vast majority of parents would for sure choose safety over comfort.
My BF is the newsletter I am trying to print. Everytime I go to print this damn thing something goes wrong with the printer, the paper, the office kid ruining perfectly good copies...ugh...
IKEA Kitchen BF - worst IKEA trip ever including the time DH broke my rear-view mirror off trying to pack the car.
Even with the customer service drama aside - so far I'm still super happy with going with an IKEA kitchen.
I *cannot* anymore with side sleeping. I wake up in the middle of the night from hip pain. Turning over from side to side is huge chore one I feel will send me into labor it’s such a strain. At this point I feel I will have permanent bruising on my hip bones. All I want to do is sleep on my back or stomach. I’m also 110% over all the swelling and not being able to lift my legs like 5” off the floor. That underbelly/RLP pulling and soreness is no joke. I can’t tell if I’m miserable because this baby is riding so much lower then my first or if it’s cus I’m 4 years older..ready to be done!!
@nimmle @wildtot Oh, goodness! You have to call back!!?!?!? Fuck that! They make is sooooooooo difficult to do all of this. I'm not able to comprehend it. I get wanting to avoid scam/fraud. However...just...make it easier for us pregos!!!!!
@wildtot totally agree with @nimmle send a video. "is this proof enough?!?!"
DH is off today but we didn't see him as he was completing projects in his basement office, which is cool since he didn't get time to do it this weekend (his fault). But he kept saying things like, "Ok, can I have til 1:30 and I'll be up?" and so I got really excited that he'd be up to help and then...he wasn't. I am so so so so tired today I don't know what my deal is, and having him here while I napped on the couch would have been amazeballs. He just took DS downstairs so I guess I could nap now but its almost dinner so I gotta clean up the kitchen.
OMG guys - the IKEA designers messed up and I'm seriously tweaking out right now. All the uppers and half the lowers are in (not finished, but in) and there's a F'n huge gap on the right side of the window that is NOT in the design package and it's driving my super symetrical eye nuts... They kept the glass front cabinets to the L and R of window both 18"....the one to the L is 2" from the window...the one to the R is 4" from the window and then there's a 2" filler between it and the corner cabinet....so I got 6 f'n inches of dead wall.... off to IKEA website to come up with options to discuss when DH comes home....
Bonus BF - after having an actually decent visit with MIL yesterday and her understanding and agreeing that we just can't be going down their way any more because we can't be the extra 45 min away from the hospital any more, she calls DH to see if we want to drive down for dinner tonight >_< I told DH to go with DD and leave me home but sentimental fool won't.
Anyhoo - I talked to DH about the fact that my doctor thinks it's likely that I am going to go early. Even though it's not certain, it was enough of an excuse for him to call up his Aunt and Uncle and ask them to postpone until sometime after the baby is born with the recommendation they get a hotel. **phew**
eta of course H hasn’t cleaned the litter after I’ve been asking for days and despite the cat pooping on the carpet.
edited again because i still had to put DS to bed while going though a contraction.
