I"m loving the acupuncture. I feel really good. I should have been going all along during this pregnancy. So that is my PSA-pregnant mamas, get thee to acupuncture!
She can tell my SI joint is in a better position already and everything is widening/loosening as it should. My neighbor that is a midwife is going to try to figure out baby's position for us on Sunday. I really wish the OB office had me coming back in for another ultrasound before our big day on Tuesday but they didn't want to/couldn't get me in.

My kids have been nuts lately and I'm getting no sleep. I've definitely got the winter blues or am dealing with mild depression. I'm struggling, but checking in to say hey. I haven't read through, but I hope everyone is doing well.

Oh Friday - what a day you have been. Hoping for an uneventful evening!
There was a funeral at the church that is on the next road down from our house. I knew yesterday it would be huge because the viewing was last night and the funeral home (2 streets down from us) was packed last night and cars were lined up on our street. Well, my MIL came to get my vehicle to take to the dealership that she and FIL work at to have running boards installed. She left her vehicle parked in the street. I realized I should put it in our driveway to give more room for people to park - both sides of the street were already lined with cars and there were cars trying to go both ways on our street - I couldn't find her e-brake release. So I told one person to just park in my driveway. Felt like an idiot that I couldn't find it (right beside the seat) but I was flustered because of the traffic jam. Oy.

I also forgot to take my lunch until about 2:30. I ate a salad at my desk and decided to take a super quick shower. Oops.

I try to be a reasonable person, but I just opened my first Paypal dispute because I haven't received an item that I paid for. I ordered back in October - sent messages on 11/19 and was assured it would be mailed next day - no tracking, nothing ever recieved, followed up again on 12/7 and was told she would check - then no response, sent another message on 12/19 that went unanswered. It is only $10 but it irritates the crap out of me!

My brother, his wife, and their 1 year old son are visiting this weekend. They should be here soon. I'm excited to see them, and for kiddo to play with his cousin (I really hope they don't bring the dog, though. I love their little mutt....but she can be a handful.). I'm also glad they are visiting because it gave me the push to tidy up the last little things I've been putting off. So I did those things and now I feel accomplished. Wahoo!

Thanks everyone. Interviews are done! They plan to let us know next week. At this point I'm just really happy to not have three interviews next week.
Also, I won the chili cook off at work. That was a nice start to the weekend.

Going out with friends tonight. Excited.
Have headache thou
I probably should have weaned from my medication next week when I didn’t have my period because these headaches might be from my period or they might be from weaning off my meds. Oh well.

Haha, just surviving armpants,! Not sure if we'll do anything special. Of course I'm really tired and E hasn't been sleeping great. My mom is having a Superbowl party on Sunday (small, just the usual suspects) so we'll go to that and stuff our faces. There are a few things around the house to do. Maybe we'll get motivated if we get some good sleep!

Glad you're still checking in mommabakes. It's good to see you around here. I'm sorry you're struggling. Hopefully you can get some down time this weekend and catch up a little on sleep. Lack of sleep makes everything else worse.

I weighed Abigail again tonight before bed. She hasn't gained anything in the past week and is actually down a few tenths of a pound. I realize that's not significant, but it's not reassuring either. Her eating was also crap today. Nothing but yogurt for lunch and 1/6 of a quesadilla at dinner. At this point she needs 3T clothing due to height but could still wear 18 month based on weight. She's barely 25 pounds. I think I might need to start feeding her cheesecake at every meal.

aydee not sure if this has been covered but what about drinks? For awhile, my sis gave her son milkshakes almost every day bc that was the easiest way to get the calories! (For the record...it was her 12 year old son, losing weight when he got braces but he didn't have any extra to start with!)

I am definitely done working, which feels weird. And yup-due next Sunday! Do you have any opportunities for acupuncture? I wish I had been doing it all pregnancy. She is specifically working on flipping baby but my back/joints feel so much better too. I felt so liberated when I decided this past Thursday was my last day! Are you having any signs of labor? I have just started noticing some last night so I'm hoping little Mary Lou (as in Retton) has done her last flips and is head down and I'll go into labor on my own before my scheduled surgery on Tuesday... Do you hang out much over on Jan/Feb? The high incidence of super fast labors is kind of scary!
