Iâm approaching freak out mode. I have several weeks to go but I am afraid she will be like DD and come early. I have so many things that still need to be done and not enough energy to do them. I know people say scheduled c sections are so much better and Iâm seriously hoping thatâs the case. My emergency cs with DD and the recovery were both absolute hell.

tbirdlove - Phew! DS1's new mattress has been unwrapped and doesn't smell at all. I could have just moved his current mattress to his new room and used the new mattress for the new baby whenever he moves to his crib, but now I can leave the current mattress where it is and let DS1 use his new mattress as soon as the room is done being set-up.

Hugs teambrink. Try to scale the list back to just the necessities and start with those đ Are there any tasks that can be entrusted to your H/SO?

Just got stabbed three times trying for an IV in my arm. Lots of waiting. I think this induction might take awhile...

tbirdlove I can pass some stuff off to him for sure. Just hate to do it, even though I probably should. Iâll make a necessities list tomorrow and see what we can get done.

Hasn't happened to me this time but first pregnancy I had times I could smell things no one else could. It was crazy at times. We're talking I could smell a CLOSED bottle of hot sauce 2 rooms away when MH took it out of the fridge.

MH never does anything to my standards, so I also hate giving him any tasks! I also should delegate some things, but mostly I end up doing everything myself. He tends to find a way to do a half-assed job and it just pisses me off!

In fact, I stayed sensitive to scented things even since DS was born! I don't think it's been quite as bad this pregnancy, but I never did ask MH if he could smell it too.... You're right that it could partly be that.

Ugh it's been a long morning already.
DS turns 2 in a few weeks but the way daycare runs he was eligible to move up this week as part of the start of their new school year. Figured why not so he gets used to his new room now rather than switch rooms right as little brother arrives. He was not happy at drop off. First time in a long time he's cried at drop off and he did not want me to put him down. I know he'll be fine, he'll have a great day and he'll get used to the change, but I feel so bad. I also really loved his last teachers and they adored him so I hope I like the new ones as much.
Then I get over halfway to my desk from my car and realize I left my coffee in my car. I couldn't have done that a few weeks ago when it was mid-60's and dry in the morning?? No, I choose today when it's already 85 feels like 95... Yuck. Can't go without my coffee though!!

I got maybe 15 minutes of sleep last night đ had contractions from 1-3:30 then when those stopped my restless legs wouldn't let me sleep. I'm at a 3 right now and started pitocin an hour ago and contractions are starting again. The anesthesiologist is going to come by in a bit to have me sign consent forms and I'll probably get me epi before things get too intense.

Sorry to hear no sleep brenna. That's rough, especially with what's coming. I hope you can manage some naps today before things really get going.

I'm hoping with the epi since I won't feel my legs there will be no restless legs and I'll sleep a little. Last night I just closed my eyes and didn't play on my phone or anything so I feel somewhat rested.

Pitocin contractions are not very fun. They started up quick! Hopefully it means baby will be here today!

Hopefully you get some rest brenna after the epi and hopefully your contractions stay productive. My first induction was a long one due to not really being favorable when I was induced. Hopefully your new baby will come by this evening!
