On another note, I'm babysitting my 14-month-old niece this weekend. She's generally super fun and easy (literally will just walk in to her room and ask to go to bed at night when it's her bedtime) but lately she's been suuuuuper clingy to her parents and basically acts terrified of me even though I see her like once every other week lol. I'm scared she's just going to scream the whole time and it's going to destroy my parenting confidence.
Trying to enjoy the last few weeks with just one kid and actually sleeping!
I had a dream about giving birth to her last night and it was so sweet and SO scary. I was like wait no, it's too early! But in the dream she was perfect and I woke up nearly in tears because I want her to be here and was sad it wasn't real. But also nope, too early, too much prep to do. Stay put for now and keep cookin' little one.
Also, I have started baby powdering my boobs because of constant sweat/moisture. Mmm, sexy. What a glowy/magical experience
@UnbreakableKimmySchmidt I'm doing this in my mind too. Both DD and DS came at 38 weeks on their own accord, so even though I technically have 14 weeks left, I'm only really banking on having 12 weeks just to be safe. And to make me feel even more overwhelmed, I have a bunch of vacation to use up before my leave so my last day of work is only 10 weeks away! Ahhhhh! No idea how I'm going to get everything done.
This weekend we finished getting all our totes in the crawlspace organized and did a big charity donation. Rented a steam cleaner and cleaned the carpet in the basement so that we can move all the toys in the spare bedroom down there so we can start setting up the nursery. I think once I see the crib in the room, shit will start getting real....

TW - Loss
Another random, this past weekend was my one year anniversary of losing my third angel. So that's been hard. I didn't cry as much as I thought I would and I think it's because of having this little guy but still gut wrenching.
TW over

This pregnancy seems to be going by super fast. I can’t believe I’ll be in my third trimester on Friday.
**TW** @sparkymcgeee I'm sorry that you had a rough weekend with the anniversary of your loss. I recently passed my due date (9/21/18) for the baby that I lost in Feb. Having little brother on board definitely helped, but it still stung knowing that I should be holding a newborn right now.

I have to fire my staff person today. I've never fired anyone and have been working with her for almost a year on her issues around all kinds of things. She's had many many warnings and all the support I can give but just isn't improving. Not looking forward to finding and training a new person before I go on leave but it has to be done. I feel down though. I hate that I am ruining someone's day/life and they aren't a bad person.
Wah.
@greenhillgirl That is never a fun experience. Hope it goes well.

@sparkymcgeee (((hugs))) Those loss anniversaries are so hard and so unpredictable sometimes in terms of knowing how you'll feel. Sometimes the lead up is worse for me, sometimes the day of, sometimes the days after....it all just sucks. I have the death date of my first loss coming up next month and I think it will be really bittersweet this year. I usually take a compassion day from work on that date and just do whatever I feel like I need to do to take care of myself and honour her memory. Our lost babies will still always be our babies. Glad having little man on board seemed to help ease the pain of the anniversary for you.

@greenhillgirl good call on talc, I didn't even think about it & will have to double check. But oooof I hate confrontation and feel for you. I hope all goes as well as it can.
*TW*
@sparkymcgeee I'm sorry about your weekend
in doing something either for you or to honor baby's memory. I plan on taking the day & keeping myself busy, but open enough to feel what I need to feel. Sending so many hugs your way!
I cannot tell you how many times I counted on my fingers because I was convinced that you all were wrong about this 3 month thing. Wow.

@sparkymcgeee I hate those anniversaries. Thinking of you! You too @kianarain and everyone else. I've been reminded a lot of my loss lately because DS overheard me telling someone that he was a twin pregnancy. Now he says he has a best friend (imaginary) who is his brother he was in my tummy with. Its rough trying to explain these things to a 5 yr old - its like he gets it but not why it upsets me.
I officially have 12 wks until my c-sec. I can't believe its almost down to single digits!! I also agreed to work until xmas eve so I'm begining my holiday freak-out at this time. I haven't bought a single present, made a list or anything.... so behind my normal this year

Baby #3 EDD: 6/18/24
@ladystout08 and @bradleysmommy28 we were just in Lancaster two weekends ago. We went to Strausberg Railroad for a day out with Thomas and Friends. It poured rain and was damp and chilly all day. When I was a child, my parents would take us to Lancaster to eat at the Good and Plenty.
After a a while I started to second guess myself, wondering if I should be more worried than I was. We went back to the hotel and I called my doctor. I was hoping they would give me a list of symptoms to look out for and tell my that I would be fine. However, they said anytime a pregnant woman falls and her stomach might have been hit they tell them to go to the ER.
That totally freaked me out: the tears started coming. I called my mom (a nurse) who told me she agreed, which scared me even more. We went down to the lobby of our hotel to ask where the closes ER was and how to get there. The girl working was amazing!! She spoke to her manager and immediately had an ambulance on the way - all ambulance rides from Disney World are free. The paramedics came and did my blood pressure and said I looked fine but if I felt better they would transport me. DH and I decided we wouldn’t relax until we went to get baby checked out.
I had to be wheeled through the lobby of the hotel where I’m sure I freaked out several small children. We got to the hospital and they brought me right up to L&D triage. I got hooked up to all sorts of monitors for baby and me and left for a while. They came back a bit later and said baby looked perfect, no contractions, everything was fine. They didn’t do an ultrasound but said it would be a 4 hour wait if I elected to do one, which they didn’t think I needed. I still felt fine and baby had been kicking away, so we felt totally reassured and got discharged. We got an Uber back to the hotel, where I was reminded why I love Disney so much.
We checked back in with the wonderful girl at the front desk to let her know we were ok, which they had requested we do. She was so happy for us and immediately hooked us up with fast passes for a bunch of extra rides today, as well as replacing one we had last night for a super hard to get ride that involved several phone calls.
About 15 minutes later after we were back in the room the manager of the hotel called DH, whose number she had gotten while the paramedics were checking me out, and said she heard all was good but wanted to see if we needed any reservations or anything. He said no, maybe just some water bottles (I don’t understand men’s minds and where they go for things like this haha). She also gave us a credit to pay for the Uber ride back. A short while later room service shows up with 6 water bottles on the house.
Lastly, when we got home from dinner there was a beautiful little set up in the hall with a stuffed Minnie Mouse, a picture frame, a onesie, and the most thoughtful note from the staff. They truly went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy even though they had no reason to do anything more than make sure we were safe.
