I survived! He pulled both on the left side. Didn’t have to cut them out so not nearly as bad as I was expecting. The last one he almost lost down my throat. I caught it with my tongue though so all good. ETA: My dentist is sexxxxxy!!
@DunkinDecaf I really think she only put her question in the title.
I'm hungry. I want all of the food. However, I'm trying to be very conscious of my carb load until I hear more from the Dr. I've been basically snaking on the lunch I packed every 2 hours.
currently eating an apple and I had some carrots earlier. There were strawberries in my morning shake. Which is more fruit and veggies than I normally get!
@jynjer91 glad your dental stuff went well! @sammierose464 sorry about your glucose test... Hope the 3hr one goes better. My cat used to take naps with me and this time she just stood in the door and wouldn't move one way or another. I finally just grabbed her and put her on the bed closed the door and climbed in bed. She promptly jumps back off and goes to sleep in my closet. Spoiled rotten, snob of a fuzz butt.
Anyone want my moby wrap? Used maybe twice with DD1 but I’m too lazy to tie it. In excellent condition. I’m happy to mail it to anyone in this group for free just so I don’t have to feel guilty about throwing it away.
Omg I miss you guys SO much! Not only did my new dentist start last week, but my new front desk girl started as well. Every moment is dedicated to training and figuring out what we don't have that the doctor needs me to order. I have not had a second to even glance here! I might have to resort to bumping on the app, because I cannot go this long without checking in with you guys anymore!!!
I got so emotional last night guys. As my H and I were falling asleep, we were cuddling and I started to cry. H asked what was wrong and I told him how sad I was that we were in the last few months of it just being the two of us. Its been 5 years of me and him, just the two of us, traveling and going out to dinners and doing what we want/when we want and just having so much fun, and I am so excited for this baby, but I also am going to miss that so much. I lost it last night thinking about it.
@kiwi2628 I love mine and Jeff's relationship, just the two of us. We keep joking that because we don't really like other people, we just made one that we'll love instead. I kinda think it'll be mostly the same, just something new to entertain us and laugh at/with.
Yes, I'm aware that I said I'll be laughing at my kid. No shame.
Had my us this morning, I have some stubborn babies who do not like their photo taken! But they look great and are measuring big!! Eta: completely forgot to mention I'm now sitting at the lab for my 1hr... 20 minutes to go and I feel so yucky/:
Yep- having a baby is going to change my life in ways I can’t even begin to imagine. In some ways I already am sad about some of the life I have built that I am giving up. I see it when I go out with my friends and have to bail two hours earlier than everyone else; and then recognize it again when I choose to not go out because both gestating baby and getting ready for xem to be on the outside takes so much time and energy.
But it is okay to feel this way. Our lives are changing. We knew (and hopefully loved) the things we did pre-baby, and it is scary to not know if we will equally love our lives once we welcome baby.
Funny maybe, but even though i am not a FTM i am having some of the same feelings. i know that i have felt this way with the other kids and always end up laughing at myself because somehow that new little one fits into our lives in just the right way, but there is still always that feeling that we are giving something up or taking away from something that is so right...and yet it just seems like the time/space/energy just fills to fit the new dynamic and everything is that much richer for it (not that there aren't difficult parts of the adjustment, but hopefully it helps to know this and we all end up feeling that way at least for the most part )
@kiwi2628 yes it will be different but it doesn't have to end. I know a lot of people don't share this view but we brought our daughter everywhere since the beginning. They are pretty chill at restaurants and such. We still travel a good amount of time, but it is usually to and from family gatherings. The only place we have yet to bring her is to the movies, because of the noise level when she was little and now because she wouldn't sit still. It is an adjustment but there are so many fun things that you open yourself up to when you have a kid. Just don't forget to take some time for yourselves. Date nights are a must, as a friend once told me you have 18 years with your child and forever with you partner so keep that flame burning.

There are many times I find myself thinking "this will be so different once G is here". And it's one thing to take a 6yo to the grocery store, another to take a newborn. Right now with mine and DH's schedule, he keeps SS down at his parents on Tuesdays. During the school year SS goes back to mom at 7:30, so it'd be hard for him to get SS at 5:15, drive the half hour home, and then turn around at 7ish to take him to the meeting spot. I have a feeling baby will be coming with me to the bar on Tuesdays until DH can come get him around 8. Thankfully I have friend who play my trivia show who will help me for the little bit of overlap that G will be with me.
@kiwi2628 it’s only natural for you to feel like that, but it will be ok. We spend so much time getting our lives exactly the way we want them, and then something like a baby gets thrown into the picture and shakes everything up. Obviously you won’t know how baby will truly change your life until they’re here, but you will adjust and find a new normal that still makes you and your H happy. Like @bntfroggie said, it’s still possible to go out and travel and do the things you like to do once you have a kid, it just takes a bit more planning and effort sometimes.
After baby, you may miss the time that you and your H had just the two of you, but you’ll be creating new memories every day and watching your little one grow up to be their own independent person, which is a completely incredible new experience. I had the same feelings before DS was born, but every day he amazes me with the things he learns and does, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. I’m sure you’ll feel the same after your LO is born, but it just takes some time to adjust.
The main logistical thing I sort of worry about is that we only have one car. The winters are so ferocious here that my husband doesn't bike to his job...so, I guess baby and I will drive him to and from work each day? Or he can take the car some days, if I'm not going anywhere? To be determined!
I'm feeling similar lately with DS running out of time as the only child. I'm worried about how he'll adjust to sharing Mommy & Daddy and I'm just trying to soak up every moment I can with just the 3 of us.
But then I see him with cousins and friends and how much fun he has when someone his age around. I think he is going to loooove having a sibling. I just have to remember that babies don't do much for the first 8 months lol so he'll have to be patient!
@kiwi2628 hugs mama. I felt the same way before each of the girls were born too. To some degree I feel it this time but not as much. Each new baby obviously shakes things up, but it’s always a wonderful change

I just had grapes and strawberries and both were the absolute tits.

The ocean totally took me under today and my bathing suit completely fell off Hahahaha
THANK GOD my SIL was next to me and grabbed DD before she came down with me. I hope I didn’t traumatize her for life!
...I should probably wash them someday huh?
@kiwi2628 totally understandable! But like @jemmerjams said it will be better! It will definitely be an adjustment but it's worth it! ❤
