This is literally the first image that comes up when you google "random." Does this remind anyone of putting your TV on channel 3 to play a VHS/DVD or fire up the Nintendo?
I finally got my blood results from last week, and they didn't test HCG or anything. Granted, the baby was measuring on target and we heard the heartbeat so I guess HCG doesn't mean as much at this point? I just thought it was odd.
Also, I have no antibodies for measles or chickenpox despite being vaccinated as a kid, so that's a kick in the a$s. I'll have to avoid little kids who haven't been vaccinated! Also, I had HIGH antibodies for something called parvovirus, which I have no recollection of ever contracting - although I did read that some people can be asymptomatic. It's not a good thing to get while pregnant, so I guess I'm happy I have immunity.

Bodies are weird.
Isn’t parvo from dogs? interesting. I’ve never been tested for that but they ordered a million other labs for me this time. So many vials. Apparently my mean platelet volume is slightly high and possibly high creatine in my urine? I’m not sure if I read that one correctly, but it was flagged for preeclampsia 😞.
I am currently in the process if cleaning out my craft room/office closet to start transitioning the room back into a nursery. We saved all our baby stuff, and had been storing it in my son's larger closet, so it's mostly just swapping things back.
The craft room/office has served mostly as an overflow space for all our random stuff and isn't really used on a regular basis. There is SO much! I am so overwhelmed by all that needs to be done before baby comes. I really need a new, bigger house. *Sigh*
Most of what we're doing is just swapping. All the baby stuff in the basement will come up and the other stuff that I decide I *need* to keep will go down to the basement.
Apparently parvo is a thing in dogs but they can’t transmit it to humans. In humans it’s commonly referred to as Fifth’s Disease, which usually presents as a rash and fever.
