armpants So cool that you got to visit. How did it go? Is this the first time the kids were meeting?

We still need to finish our taxes tonight. We owe a bunch of money since we underestimated my income for the year. And we have to pay 2018 estimated taxes at the same. And we had a major screw-up this year and lost a bunch of money that was set aside by DH's employer to be used for dependent care. Today sucks. Luckily tomorrow is a new day.

The window saga continues. I called on Thursday and had to leave a message in which I expressed my frustration. No one has called me back. Tonight I went on line to make sure my credit card auto payment was scheduled and i saw that they have billed us.... for a job that is not done!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Another phone call will be made tomorrow.

Pizzaslut, i'm sorry! Try getting up and switching rooms - turn the tv on for a bit or read something. Then try going back to your room to go back to sleep. I wish I could send you gallons and gallons of coffee.

Pizzaslut, is that just due to the pregnancy or your lovely toddler too? I'm so so sorry. I know how crappy it is. The best thing I can say is it will be over soon! (that's like telling someone in a marathon at mile 20 they are almost done, I know...) I hope your experience is like mine and you get relief right away after delivery and that your baby is a magical unicorn sleeping baby. (well, my baby isn't a magical unicorn but she is doing pretty damn good for a 10 week old)

Pizzaslut sorry for the crap sleep. When I can’t sleep I try my to move to the couch or put some music on. My sister told me about this CD that claims to help you sleep. I bought it and sometimes I think it help on the nights I play it and can’t sleep. I’ll go find the name and post a screen shot of it.

I had Paragard put in yesterday. flippinchica, I think you have it, anyone else with experience? I am just wondering what the average bleeding is like at the beginning. I know it can vary a lot but just wanted to see anecdotally if it is usually the 2-3 months mentioned in their literature.

Thanks guys. It's from my pregnant and the coming on of a cold (because that's what I need right now). J actually slept great!
Plus I was stressing about something at work so I couldn't turn my mind off. I had H take J to daycare and I am staying home for the morning to rest. I want to take off on Friday so I'm hoping to get into work at some point today.

Yes, like jedi, I've used some like that music. I usually search for reiki music on youtube and it is the same ideas with the delta stuff. After my babies were born and there was so much adrenaline pumping but I needed sleep, I used those and some guided relaxation to help me fall asleep.

easternshoregirl, i have paraguard. I also had mirena prior. so i can't remember how long i bled after it was placed. I think it was off and on, very light for a few weeks. I did stop periods with mirena but not paraguard.

I’ve used guided meditation when I’ve needed to clear my head. They have lots of different pens on YouTube. Including That specifically help you sleep and I have fallen asleep a few times. I listened to one once that had you envision you are at a cabin by yourself. The rain starts to fall and you watch the rain fall on a porch. Then you go inside and light a fire. Ahhhhh. So relaxing

Poppy is protesting leaving this morning. Current situation. (Hiding under H’s raincoat. She had been wearing my sneakers.) I get it, kid. I don’t wanna either.

With all the flash flooding yesterday, our basement took on some water.. enough that H had to pick up a shop vac, but it wasn't too bad, thankfully.

Nothing going on today, and my kids are driving me nuts. It's cold and snowy. I did all my cleaning and laundry yesterday, so I was hoping to get some extra stuff done, but I have zero ambition today. We may do a Costco run after DH is home from work. This morning is going so slowly!

I need to buy some clothes. Can't wait!
Lol I have jeans or a skirt suit. So it's starting to veer very far left or right depending on the day. I need to just pick up some black dress pants and keep it in the middle haha.
Although today is the skirt suit and it does feel fun to wear. Will wear more.

armpants So cool that you got to visit. How did it go? Is this the first time the kids were meeting? It was the first time meeting. M has been curious, but unsure what to think. Last night he got on the floor when his brother was found tummy time and showed him how to wiggle forward some. M also read to him this morning when his brother was sitting on my lap. Great visit, but we're beat. They went to the city and we're going to meet them later at the aquarium.

shellyr Fx your dad continues to get good news. Pizzaslut are you taking anything to help you sleep? I'm taking a half dose of Unisom because I just can't function without sleep. I hope you're getting some rest this morning.

I know it can vary a lot but just wanted to see anecdotally if it is usually the 2-3 months mentioned in their literature. I had about a week of bleeding after the insertion and nothing since. I didn't get my period back till DS1 was 15 months though.

armpants, I don't take anything. I may mention something to my doctor tomorrow. Last night I woke up congested with a headache and then start d worrying about work so I didn't get back to sleep. The two nights before I woke up with terrible heartburn. I am definitely going to stop eating snacks right before I go to bed to see if it helps. It seemed to help last night. I did stay home today and have been resting in between small, 10-minute bouts of straightening up and spraying Lysol over everything.

I'm in a super bitchy mood today (I'm sure AF will rear her ugly head soon). I went off on DS1 this morning (justified in my head...i'm sure not so for the 18 year old brain....never feels good). Then I totally fell on my way into work this morning, cut up my knee pretty badly (don't worry everyone had a good laugh watching it over and over on the surveillance cameras...) and it looks like someone shook a friggin snow globe outside my office. I'm over this winter/spring and over today. Counting down until our HR director and program manger meet with that staff to let her go....not going to be fun. And all I am dreaming of is a big glass of wine (but alas half way through the whole 30, so no go on that).
Sorry for the negative nelly....
