Is anyone up? Today is my last day of work before maternity leave. And like no one is going to be there so I’m going to Olive Garden (I’ve been dying to have the salad for weeks now) with my boss’ assistant then hopefully leaving early for a pedi. Fx this day goes fast!

Oh and DD1 went to bed with a fever. Since I’m up I checked her temp again and it’s still over 100 so I gave her some Tylenol. She’s already on an antibiotic for an ear infection so I have no clue where this came from. Hopefully it goes away fast and she doesn’t get me or DH sick

I’m up. Had a terrible dream & couldn’t fall back asleep. I’ll blame that absurd temperature DH wanted the house at tonight. I’m exhausted. Thankfully he is only going into work for a few hours today so I will get some help w DD later.

DS has been waking twice a night since his surgery. Just went up and gave him meds and rocked him a little. I’ve been so spoiled with him STTN for the past year- hoping this is just a temporary thing and I’ll have a chance to STTN some more before baby comes!

Went in to the OB yesterday because my blood pressure was over 150/90 for the third time in two days. It was 148/85 in the office but came down when I laid down. Everything else checked out fine (still waiting on labs but I’m sure they’re fine). Now I’m only supposed to call if I get high readings that don’t come below 135/85 when I lay down. Alrighty then. We’ll just keep pushing it. Lol. And I’m supposed to ‘rest’ a lot. Because you know, that’s what you do when you’re home with three kids on winter break right before Christmas. Riiiiiight. I hope all of those who slept poorly get a nap today and you have time for a pedicure sarahh! Olive Garden salad sounds delightful.

DD was the best sleeper, down to 1x a night by like 7mo and fully sttn before her first birthday. I got SO spoiled. When DH left for deployment she was 16mo & literally THE night he left, she woke up crying for me & did it Every. Single. Night. He was gone haha. It was a long 7 months 😂😂

I actually STTN last night with no pee breaks!! I woke up about to burst but at least I got some good sleep haha.
MH is off work today so I think we’ll take DD to the pool for some open swim and then I gotta run a few errands later... alone!! Shopping alone is the biggest treat.

Hi ladies! I am up. I slept for a decent amount last night. I think I did so much running around yesterday that sleep sort of just happened. I woke up a bunch of times but managed to get back to sleep after a short time. G is ready for school. I am dressed and and we have both had breakfast. I am going to get some donuts and coffee and bring it to her school for the teachers. There are 7 teachers plus the admin team so I really can’t afford to get them all individual gifts so donuts and coffee is what they are getting. I have to do some cleaning, gift wrapping and laundry today.

I’m glad some people slept well. I’m not one of them.
Something/someone really pissed me off at work yesterday and I let it get to me. I couldn’t fall asleep and was up off and on all night thinking about it. I’ve really good this pregnancy about not letting things stress me out. Ugh!

Attention! Air Duct Cleaning Review! So I’m not sure exactly what I’m reviewing because it’s not like I’m air quality testing but that’s not going to get in my way of sharing my thoughts. I’m really happy we did it. They were here for 4 full hours. They explained everything they were going to do and didn’t cut corners. They have a huge long industrial tube vacuum that they use to suck directly from your furnaces. They then used different tubing to suck out every single vent and return in the house. We have like 40. They remove each vent cover for this process obviously and then clean ed the cover and inside of the vent. They showed me videos of some vents/ducts before and after the process. I was so into it! They don’t think it’s ever been done at our home and this house is almost 100 years old with a two story addition in the process and basement remodel so lots of dust/debris/nasty stuff. My H and I immediately thought the air was cleaner but I’m sure that placebo effect. Regardless, I’d recommend. Cleaning out your dryer vent line is important to fire prevention too. sarahh I’d wait until after you potentially insulate because I’m sure there will be so much money leftover after that project but they really recommend after any remodel/project type that will use air up more dust and debris.

Hey guys! I’m in the hospital waiting for a bed to open in L&D to start induction. When I came in for my NST yesterday, baby girls heart rate was irregular and showed an arrhythmia. I was already scheduled for the 26th but MFM said fuck it and decided it’s time for her to come out. We waited 24 hours for my Lovenox to wear off so I will have the option for an epidural this time! Yay

Morning! Definitely my favorite Friday lately! H just has today left then two week Christmas break! Plus we have three Christmases this weekend and that makes me happy!
It’s supposed to be hella cold, but, oh well. Better than storming haha.
I took it pretty easy during the day yesterday, and it helped a lot, so I’ll try again one more time today. Just going to make an easy snack for extended family Christmas tomorrow since they didn’t put me in charge of any food lol.
Have a good one!!

Good luck smash!!! Happy Friday everyone! DH and I took today off to do our Christmas together. We are going out to lunch at our favorite French restaurant for crepes, and then tonight we'll do a bread and cheese tray and exchange gifts. We are both very into gift giving so I'm really excited to give him his presents!

benandjerrys I agree with what others have said, sounds like BH. It's still progress and your body is gearing up for the real thing.
