@jessie_95 there is nothing more disappointing than spilling a perfectly good beverage! I spilled hot chocolate on my work desk once and just ruined my morning even more than it already had been! Also YGPM!

@inthewoods23 - nooo not the hot chocolate!! Ugh spilling the perfect beverage is truly one of the top three worst things in life. And bless any soul that comes in contact with you AFTER spilling said beverage.
@novaghost99 so glad you've got a new OB and you like them! That makes the whole process a lot easier.
Estimated Due Date/Weeks + Days: 28 & 4
FTM/STM/STM+: TTM
Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: Green! DH is still convinced I'm going to have a come-apart over this. I'm going to prove him wrong. lol
Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Baby's big toe is the size of a chocolate chip
Upcoming appointments: On Friday the 13th! lol
How are you feeling?: Tired, I get winded doing anything cardio. Otherwise fine.
Rants/Raves: Rave: I have figured out that if I sit on the 2nd step of my stairs, I can put on and tie my shoes semi-comfortably! Rant: Baby brain is a bitch. I've had the same conversation with the same co-workers two or three times this week. Then I told another co-worker I'd set up a meeting for this past Monday. But 1) I forgot I was going to be on PTO on Monday and 2) I forgot to set up a meeting at all on any date. I have to leave myself reminder notes around my warehouse so I remember to actually lock up and turn off the lights. It never occurred to me to deliver some product (that I'm responsible for) to a researcher, despite them asking for it by a certain date until they emailed me after the deadline. Seriously, I need my brain cells back!
Questions: natm
GTKY: You've hired some house cleaning services woohoo! What room are you most embarrassed to have them clean? 😬 So I have a lady come clean every 2 weeks, but I'm always embarrassed about the kitchen. She probably wonders if I ever wipe down the table and sweep the floor after meals.
@twentythree19 - yay team green! Same here. Fiancé is slowly wilting away every day I don’t cave in and say I want to find out, which just fuels me more to NOT find out.
Also, the stair thing? You’re a genius, it never occurred to me to use stairs to my advantage, you’re a gem! But also, that baby brain is serious shiiiii. I feel you on all of it.
