Morningggg.
Who’s here??
H had an early flight today so I’ve been up since 5 when his alarm went off. :/ He thinks of course I’ll go into labor today since he will be flying lol. Anyway no plans today other than probably taking several naps haha.

I’m up. Not much sleep last night. And now I’m motivated to do allll the things. It’s 5:50am and I’ve started a load of laundry and put away a bunch. Going to change the sheets on our bed and try and get the house in order today. And make some muffins because that sounds like a good idea. Shruggy guy.

Dd came in our room at 545. Normally we would bring her back to bed and have her sleep another hour, but I thought the clock said 645 so I pulled her into bed as always 🤦🏼♀️ So now we’re all exhausted from being up too early. AND none of us are feeling well. Ugh. This better go away before I go into labor

We are all up. MH is making breakfast. G is in a mood but there isn’t much we can do about it. Her school is technically open but her teacher said that she is t coming in and all of the other kids are staying home so I am keeping G home as well. She hasn’t been out of the house since Wednesday morning. I would like to get out of the house too but it’s 10 degrees and I don’t want to take the baby out in it. The worst part is that it should be colder tomorrow so we may not be able to go out then either.

Morning, feeling crampy again today. Hoping this is it since I'm 39+5 and it is Friday so DS will be gone to daycare. Other than that plans for a target run and pedicure and hopefully a nap.

DS’s hyperbaric oxygen treatment for today was cancelled because they don’t have a Dr available to be there today. I’m bummed because it pushes back us finishing a day, but oh well. Going to tour 2 preschools this morning so I can hopefully make a final decision on where I want DS1 to go in the fall.

H just texted me to say his plane phone isn’t working so it may not be easy to reach him if I go into labor during his flight. I was like “well you guys should take another plane” lol. Thankfully the officers on watch today know how to reach the base he is flying to in case I need to send a message or something. But watch me go into labor today since that’s what happened when DD was born too lol.
But no real signs other than my stomach just feeling really tight in general this morning.

Last night I was having contractions every 8-10 minutes for an hour but they weren't close enough to call the OB. Dude. This baby is coming soon!
I was up from 3-4:30 because I had a dream about eating pasta that was so exciting it woke me up and I couldn't go back to sleep. Lol. Ready to be done with this GD diet!

My DH is WFH and DS is at day care so we could go to lunch or something but...I am sick in bed with Pedialyte and crackers. Why won't my OB office call me back about getting my Zofran? It was supposed to be done We'd and I am getting so desperate for it.

Happy Friday everyone!
We toured a daycare yesterday and got lots of nursery organization done, so I am happy. This weekend we are going to organize all baby clothes and wash them, and finish packing our hospital bags- our to do list for baby keeps getting shorter which is exciting!

We started weekly appointments yesterday due to IVF and we got to see baby boy again! I was 33+4 and they said he weighed 5 lbs 4 oz. My sister got to be there and thought the ultrasound was the coolest thing EVER as she's never seen one before- it was so cute!

We've going on day number 2 of being snowed in. Yesterday there was no way we were going out in the blizzard conditions but today the roads look good, but my car is still snowed in, so I'm waiting for my husband to get home from work. There is no way I'm doing any shoveling, plus it's about -7 degrees outside. This winter has been horrible already and it's only the beginning of January! Being stuck in the house has given me some time to do some baby related stuff though. I did a load of baby laundry and started packing my hospital bag. I'm waiting for an amazon delivery of the last of our registry things; hopefully it will come today or tomorrow.

Morning!
I ended up asking my mom to spend the night last night just so my mind was at ease that the kids would be taken care of if we had to shoot up to the city overnight, but alas, here I still am. Mostly just lots of pressure but I started to feel a little better in the evening. Honestly I probably started feeling better just knowing she was here and we could just leave whenever we needed, so maybe I’ll need her here more overnight just for the mental relaxation and knowing the kids are fine. (Otherwise she works full time but her work is closer to our place than theirs so she’s ok with it haha)
For once I’m almost sad it’s Friday, because it’s H’s last official day of Christmas break, since he always gets weekends anyway. But he’ll take some more time when baby comes so I guess it shouldn’t be too much longer now! I was very thankful to have him here the last two weeks and I could just let myself relax when needed, it was great timing!

Feel better easternshoregirl! Morning ladies! We’re finally going to see my parents tomorrow. We’re going to meet them at the nature center, they’re doing a live birds of prey event with actual live birds. DS will love it. The preserve and nature center backs up to my condo complex so it’s super convenient. Not that we could walk to it bc it’s massive and fenced in and the entrance is several miles away but still. It’s close. It’s going to be in the 30s again tomorrow morning but thankfully everything is inside. We definitely won’t be walking the trails tomorrow! |

Park day with my baby! I worked out this morning & then we took a walk through the neighborhood that ended at our little park. It’s 37 degrees but the sun is shining so it doesn’t feel that cold! DD was getting a little stir crazy inside & watching so much tv 🤷🏻♀️  |

Morning! I had a midwife appt yesterday that was rescheduled for 9am. I had DD's 2.5 year checkup at 9:30. So I was worried about making it. I went early to the midwife (got there at 8:15) and I was out out by 8:45! Plenty of time to get to the pediatrician. Both kiddos are doing well.
I got the tree out of the house yesterday but have OMG so much cleaning to do still. And all the snow and salt makes the floors look terrible.
A friend's 5 yo is coming over soon so his parents can go into work. Since we had an unexpected second snow day here.
That's all my randoms.
I am waiting to see an update from @madisonrose and all the other ladies who are close!!

The bomb cyclone came and went and I’m just happy we didn’t lose power! My car is pretty well dug out thanks to DH.
Tomorrow my mom and her friends are throwing me a sprinkle. We really don’t need much since DS is so close in age, but they got us a double stroller 👍
It slipped my mind until today that my BFF was coming and planned to stay overnight at my house. Fortunately the place is in decent shape, except the guest room. I’ve warned her that it is our repository for all baby stuff we aren’t currently using but she promises she doesn’t care. The room is kinda gross in generally because the dogs sneak in there to hang out every chance they get (I have no idea why it is so interesting to them, it’s not an exciting room). So that’s my project for the day.

I hope there is a flurry of new babies around here in the next few days!
I spent the morning gossiping with a coworkers over the phone (we both work from home) and then about 30 minutes of "work" on some silly thing that my crazy boss requested. I forgot how annoying she can be after not having to deal with her for almost 3 weeks.
Example: We had our one on one meeting yesterday and I told her I was bored and asked if she had anything I could help with (she reassigned all of my work in prep for maternity leave) and then she tells me "Keep in mind you are supposed to be working all the way up to leave." No shit boss lady, you took what little work I had away so I'm being honest that I have nothing to do and can help with other projects.

My dog is being such a weirdo. She’s constantly underfoot and trying to sleep on or near me. I’ll be five feet away from where she is lying down, and she will get up and come lie on top of my feet. DH thinks it’s a pregnancy thing. It might be, though she wasn’t like this last time. Then again, maybe she’s thinking, “last time you got this large you brought home that thing that steps on my tail all the time.” Just now I got up from the couch to get a glass of water, and...  |

That was me, my doc gave it the ok, just the regular kind not DM. ETA: sorry you feel bad. I hope you are better by next week. It is looking very likely I will be sick when I have this baby. It is less than 5 weeks away and I have been sick for close to two months at this point. |

This child is sucking the life out of me. |
