I was really hoping to wake up in labor this morning. No such luck. I just have a few papers to grade this morning and then maybe I'll do general housework? I'm not used to having downtime when DS is in daycare.

Ugh, I'm puking over here. Seriously?! Can't this stop? I guess I should still expect the random morning sickness until I have this baby. It's just exhausting. Almost 33 weeks so less than 2 months of it left. Yay? This girl baby is definitely worse as far as pregnancy sickness goes than my boy was.

I was up from 12-2:30 last night. I may have to break out the Tylenol pm one of these nights to at least get 8 hours of sleep.
DH and I got a lot done yesterday at the house. We got DD's craft corner set up and her new rugs in place and I cleared out most of the stuff in the Nursery. I probably have another hour or 2 of stuff to do in the nursery then we should be in good shape. I also need to go through DD's clothes and sort them into totes. Our cleaning ladies emptied out a few totes that I had organized with stuff that was too little and stuff that was too big so that stuff is back in her drawers and closet so I can't tell what all she has. That may have to wait until after baby though when my mom is here.
Hopefully this week is quick at work. I don't have much to do but also don't have any spare vacation days to use unless I eat into the days allocated for maternity leave.

You guys. MIL told me yesterday that as a baby gift she’s hiring her cleaners to come in to clean my house!!!! I nearly cried when she told me. The mess of my house has been driving me crazy. I barely have it in me to keep up with the regular day-to-day spiffing, let alone cleaning the toilets, mopping the floors, scrubbing the tub, etc. Forget all that. My priorities have been making sure there’s enough dishes in our cabinet to eat off of and the living room isn’t too cluttered for DD to play in 😂 I’m going to have her book it for when I’m around 38 weeks so hopefully ill come home to a somewhat clean house still after giving birth.

I have the worst low back pain at night. It get better as I go on with the day, but I'm wondering if it means baby is sunny side up. I sure hope not!

I am the opposite as you- I am pregnant with a boy and the pregnancy sickness is way worse this time around vs. my pregnancy with my daughter

Good morning everyone! Happy Monday! What an awesome gift amesie, that's so exciting! This week our office floors are being redone, so I get to work from home since they don't want me around the fumes. I am soooooo excited to get a week working from home, especially the week before Christmas! I will have some time to get some cleaning done, some wrapping, etc. I haven't been sleeping well either so it's such good timing.

Morning! Pretty boring appointment. No dilation. Although the baby is big. She said she thinks he’s already about 7 pounds. Jake was 7lbs 6oz and a week late. She said she wouldn’t be surprised if I went early and that if I did and happened to dilate on my own they’d allow me to try vaginal delivery.

amesie, that is my dream come true! Awesome! yellow711, I've taken it upon myself to dress casually. I'm in sneakers today with really casual pants and a sweater. I will try for a dress/skirt a couple of times this week, but with my comfy outfits sprinkled in too. Sorry to hear you are also not feeling well. sarahh, ugh. Managing the clothes rotation is a tough job sometimes, even without someone else sabotaging you!

Morning!
It’s my birthday today! My kids had a costume parade coming into my room this morning to give me presents, it was very cute haha. Our plan tonight is to make pizza and have supper in the basement while watching the Grinch. I realized we hadn’t taken the time to have a Christmas movie night yet and I just wanted something nice and laid back to do.
Hope everyone has a good day!

DD was up a ton last night. Around 3 she said she wanted to get dressed. I was very whatever and she got dressed then went back to bed. I just took her to the pediatrician who pointed out her dress is on backwards. Seriously I'm just lucky she's dressed and we survived the night.
She's got an ear infection and we are waiting for amoxicillin at the pharmacy now.

I'm just at the OB waiting for my 30w check up.
I'm going to attempt AGAIN to get my Dr to write me a work place accommodation since my job is being a butt about letting me wfh on a regular basis. Even though my SI joint pain is gone for now. Do not want to come into the office every day obscenely pregnant. I didn't have a lot of oversight last pg so I slid under the radar but no such luck now.
I have a headache that keeps coming and going. No thank you.
I need to bake cookies tonight and finish a couple craft things.

Hello friends. I’m exhausted. I slept 4-5 hrs last night & feeling it today. We had lots of errands— doggy got groomed & we had to get groceries. I’m waiting for DD to lay down so I can enjoy my coffee in peace. I’m also not feeling the best today...I’ve felt nauseous off & on the last few days so I hope that means I’m expelling this baby soon lol.

Hi! I have had an insanely busy day and it’s not over yet. G isn’t napping which is awful but at least she will go to bed really easily tonight. MH and I are going to clean up a bit before her afternoon services start and then I am heading out to run a few more errands. Happy birthday tiffrobot! amesie I have the jealousy big time. I would looooove a cleaning service right before the new year.

Since everyone and their dog keep asking about baby coming I posted a update: I'm still very much pregnant Facebook status. My secretary just commented for baby to hold off until the 26th. Ummm for my comfort please no. I mean baby will come when he's ready but I'm definitely not encouraging him to hold off until after Christmas.

My church project wrapped up today and while it wasn't a ton of work I'm really happy it is over.
My OB told me today that they won't let me go past 40 weeks so if Faith hasn't arrived by Jan 24th (39 weeks) then they will schedule an induction. I'm still hoping to avoid it, but at this point I'm just kinda done being pregnant and ready to meet this baby. My weight is holding steady, my glucose levels are good except for my fasting so she increased my oral meds a bit to help with the fasting numbers. I start my NST's on Thursday. Best of all there is no sign of protein in my urine, so last week's positive was a fluke!

So my big news is, we have an official move date to our new house - Jan. 3. My C-section is scheduled for Jan. 10! Send me all the 'stay inside baby!' Vibes.

I feel like I’m in a nightmare. Today after his HBOT, we changed his diaper and the gauze over his graft fell off. It was stitched to the penis so that probably explains his screaming earlier today when I guess it ripped. Nothing - absolutely nothing- could have prepared me for what it looks like. I emailed pictures to the surgeon but haven’t heard back yet which is beyond frustrating. They have password-protected post-op photos on their website and B’s looks wayyyyyyyy worse than all of them. Basically whatever you are picturing in your head - times it by 1,000 and that’s maybe what it looks like. My best friend burst into tears when I showed her.
I’m sorry to keep unloading here it’s just almost unbearable and venting helps some. I can’t even drink vodka or take Xanax which is what I need.
