It’s cool and rainy here today. All I want to do is curl up under a blanket and watch movies. But both kids are home from school today and tomorrow for Rosh Hashanah and they have taken over the tv. So instead I’m miserably folding laundry and watching stuff on my iPad.
They really do sound amazing. My LO has been sick most of the weekend so I took her in today. They (we ) basically water boarded her to flush excess wax out of her ears and she has a double ear infection. My poor baby. We’re on the couch watching doc mcstuffins but I wish it was movies.

Today I was up at the crack of dawn to head into Manhattan (from New Jersey) to attend a live taping of The View. We wound up being turned away because they were at capacity so I went to work instead........ WHAT a bummer. On the flipside, though, if you're turned away once they are kind enough to give you actual solid tickets with no risk for a future show... so we'll be going back again next Monday.
So just so you all know in case I’m MIA for the next few days: my area is under mandatory evacuation for storm surge flooding due to the impending Hurricane. I’ll be headed out of town with my daughter and dog (and a friend’s dog) to stay with another friend. We will be out of harms way and our house should be safe, but I might not be able to get on much. See ya in a week or so!

Had an OB appt this morning. Baby is down where he or she is supposed to be. Doc brought in the ultrasound machine and gave me three okayish photos, which I was excited and thankful to get bc she didn’t have to do that. One picture shows baby with their hand over their face. It’s so precious.

Thanks everyone. We made it safely to a friend’s house in Connecticut with DD, our pup and a friend’s pup (she has 3 and was worried about hotels turning her away because their policies are only 2). It’s looking like the storm is turning south after a bit of a stall so hopefully it won’t be too bad in our area.

I finally got my NIPT test results today and I am low risk! I feel like a giant black cloud has been lifted. I don't think I realized how stressed I was about this until now. I feel like I can finally relax a little and start to plan for this baby!
This is most definitely a random, and I would like to preface it by saying I know it’s just SILLY speculation - but have any of you, especially STMs, accurately predicted the gender of your baby from dreams? Over the last 3 weeks I’ve had 4 or 5 memorable dreams about baby being a GIRL. And what’s funny is that if I’m answering honestly, I’ve always pictured myself with a boy first. (Perhaps because I was a big sister I kind of like the idea of my kid being the big brother???? I don’t know.)
Technkcally all I want is a healthy baby but I can’t shake these dreams that keep pointing to girl and I always wonder if they might mean something!!!

I’ve only ever had girl dreams and according to my NIPT I’m on boy #3 lol
I knew from the very beginning with my first that he was a boy. Friends would joke that I would have a girl because I was so dead set on him being a boy that I would jinx myself. He’s a healthy 7 year old.
I had a dream the other night that this baby is a boy. So we shall see if my dream was correct and if your theory is correct.

I haven't had any gender dreams but a friend of mine had a dream I was pregnant (before we told friends I was) and it included the gender so we're curious to see if the friend's dream will be right . I think we are having a boy but everyone else including DH thinks girl.
@indigoheightsblog with my first i dreamed it was a little boy with brown hair. DS is blonde so im interested to see what this one (also a boy) will look like! I dreamed he was a girl last night though.
I had a I had a dream that my twins were a litter of puppies. I took them to work with me and they kept escaping from their box and crawling all over the place. Probably lots of Freud there, but pretty sure I’m not having puppies.

I never had dreams about baby being a specific gender but I just knew my 1st was a boy I had no doubts. Now this time I have no idea. I don’t have a feeling I’m not sure if it’s because I want a girl so bad that it’s making me unable to have a feeling or what.
I've never had strong feelings on boy/girl with any of my prior 3 pregnancies. This time I keep thinking boy but like you @ashley14598 , I don't know if it's just because that's what I'm hoping for is getting in the way. I'm actually scaring myself a bit by how much I'm hoping for a boy!
I have a really strong feeling that it's a boy. Not because I'm dying to have a boy, I just have a feeling. Can't wait to know if that feeling is correct or if I have broken mom-tuition.
@Lbloom i'm in the exact same boat.... i'm SUCH a "girly girl" too you would think i'd be apesh*t praying to have a daughter. I'll be thrilled either way (and I'll love dressing them up either way!) but for some reason i just can't shake this hope for a little boy first.
@indigoheightsblog - haha! Well, I've had 3 girls so I'm just hoping for a chance to experience the other side, plus I would really love to see what a son of mine and DH's looks like. (I have a friend who's oldest son is her exact replica in really tall boy form!) Kind of silly, I know. We are team green, so when I see that baby, no matter which we get it won't matter because I'll be holding him or her. You can't be disappointed when that baby is in your arms!
@swanbrooner that seems to be a trend! @Lbloom you are so right i am going to be a freaking ball of sobs when i see that baby!!!!!!! can it be march yet?

H felt pretty much all the way through that she'd be a girl, but I don't think that was based on dreams.
@3rdtime_charmed - That is hilarious! Pregnancy dreams are so crazy!

@meggyme I'm glad you guys are evacuated and can hopefully enjoy this spur of the moment "vacation" with friends.
