I slept terribly. I can't get comfortable but at least it is my last full day of work. Tomorrow I'm working just the morning.

I also hoooooribly too ugh. Luckily MIL is taking DD for the day so I can slug around as necessary. I don’t have much to do today so hopefully I can get in a nap later.

Happy Baby Day marygracerich!! FX for Baby Day sarahh!! Sitting in the parking lot at work. I need to go in and make coffee and oatmeal but I also want to nap. DS woke up at around 11pm about 30 seconds into an attempt at ST. I tried to sing/rock him to sleep w out luck for probably 30/45 min. Then i put him in his crib and he lost it so I convinced him to lay down by laying down on his floor and reaching into his crib so he could hold my hand. That lasted about an hour. I finally told him I had to pee and I’d be right back and thankfully he let me go and slept until 7! Phew! 37 weeks today And DS

I'm extremely surprised I haven't popped yet! Since I have my school stuff done I have the next two mornings to myself. Last night we decided that DS will stay with MIL the night before my induction since we have to be there so early. I tear up just thinking about leaving him for the last time.

I actually slept really good last night and slept until 9:15 this morning! We got the house disinfected yesterday but I'll still be washing my hands frequently the next few days and trying to keep my hands away from my face. I need to go out and run some errands today, but it is bitterly cold out and my winter coat won't zip anymore. I'm too cheap and lazy to go buy a winter maternity coat just for this month when I don't leave the house for work everyday. I have some online purchases and gifts to return/exchange and I need to do some of my grocery shopping for my bulk cooking session on Friday. DH is working from home with nothing to do so I'm hoping we can go drop in at the day cares we are interested in for tours and information. It will be slower than normal I'm sure but I don't want to schedule a tour so they are ready for us. I don't have a "new" bump picture, but this is from Monday, so close enough! My OB won't let me go past my due date and if she hasn't arrived on her own by the 24th then we will be scheduling an induction so absolutely no more than 5 weeks left!!!!

37 weeks with baby girl #3! I have an appointment later this morning and then I plan to spend the day nesting - washing newborn clothes, reorganizing closets, putting away Christmas decorations, and more. Finally something clicked into gear that made me realize we will be having a baby soon! 😂

Checkup today! Will include a repeat GBS swab since I had my first one at 32 weeks that came back negative and they like to redo them every 5 weeks here.
Good luck to all the new babies today and to anyone who has a bump turn to baby by next HDBD!

I have a mani/pedi this afternoon. It was supposed to be with my mom and sister but now my sister has the stomach flu. Really hoping it doesn’t spread through my whole family. Just trying to survive a day home with the kids and no plans. They’re insane and I just want a clean house. This is from Sunday, 36w2d. Baby girl number 4.

I’m sitting in the clinic waiting for my dr and I look up and there’s a lady across from me smiling and she’s like “sorry, your baby is just moving so much it’s funny to watch” 😂

Just got back from the store. I used to love shopping, but I have seriously grown to loathe it. Online shopping only from here on out 😑
Also. We woke up to no heat today. And of course this is supposed to be the coldest week of the winter, getting down into the negatives some days. Luckily we have a guy able to come out later today to look at it. Hopefully it’s a quick, easy, and CHEAP fix.

I'm having a lazy day at home with DS, while DH works from home. Right now we're watching moana while I finish up my final present for Christmas (I'm lucky that we aren't exchanging them until tomorrow) Just after lunch we called in to the NICU to see how DD is doing, since I couldn't get a drive in there today. DD is now 3 weeks old (33w1d) and has now been moved from her incubator into a cot!!! She has also been moved to getting feeds every 3 hours instead of 2. Unfortunately she had more desats than they would like, so her feeds are being put through a pump into her ng tube to control the flow (instead of gravity fed). We are very excited that everything seems to be going so well given her adjusted age and early birth

Been thinking of you sarahh. Hope things are going better. In other news... when you already have pelvic pain I don't suggest straddling/ bouncing on a peanut ball. I followed that with some easy Zumba. I know I'm trying to avoid being induced but is it worth causing myself pain?

The night before my induction I used my breast pump to try to induce labor naturally! It is one of the only methods with science behind it. It didn't work for me, but it wouldn't hurt your pelvis any so maybe it is worth a shot!

jessijean I just want to say all my inductions have been positive experiences, other than the fact that because of my BP I wasn’t allowed out of bed or to labor in the tub. But the longest I’ve been on piticin is 12 hours. Obviously induction stories range from good to horror movie, but I think it helps to hear positive ones!

jessijean my induction was not bad at all. It took a while for my body to want to go into labor and ultimately what worked was the Foley bulb. But otherwise my Dr listened to me and I had a very good experience.

Guys, we picked a daycare!!!!
I wish it were cheaper (I'm sure we all do) but this is a few blocks from our house and on the cheaper end of the spectrum of all the places we called. Their model is actually a "drop in" model but they offer full time care for those who want/need it. If Faith is sick, we go on vacation, or just keep her home with us a day/week/whatever then we don't pay for the hours we don't wear and we don't lose our spot! Every other Saturday they are open in the late afternoon and evening hours for drop in "date night" coverage for $9/hour.
Now I just need to get a pediatrician, and I'll probably just use the one my sister takes her kids to as long as they are accepting new patients.
