We're having family over for supper tonight for MIL's birthday. I'm a little stressed about getting everything done, so I'm sitting and playing here instead lol. No, I think it's fine, I've done most of the prep work.
My stress/annoyance right now is more due to the fact that I got an email that Amazon sent a shipment of subscribe and save items and ...... ?? Where was my email to go over my subscriptions?!? ?? I think it's cause I added subscriptions yesterday and it triggered something? I know we need so much stuff for baby and everything that I wanted to sit down with DH and go over our list. And now it's out of my control and DH is gonna be upset. 😡

Rama! I’m so happy to read your update and all the positivity that shines through. Im so glad you have all these people in your corner and they have taken the weight of filing a complaint for you. And that’s great about an end date and the induction date. So many anxiety reducing things and I’m hoping for smooth sailing for you! <3

What a great update Rama! Yay for an end date at work. Having an end date in sight has seriously helped get me through some rough days at work.

The past two days I've woken up super nauseous and I just feel awful today. And a coworker who was complaining about feeling sick yesterday is out today with a stomach bug. I'm really hoping I'm not catching it and the nausea is just from pregnancy.

polson I hope your appt today goes well! Limbo is the worst, and I hope they can put your mind at ease today. Keep us posted! nuggetrn Happy birthday! Thinking of you and baby ❤️ Rama Oh friend, your update made me so happy. I'm so, so happy that you have people going to bat for you hard, and I'm thrilled you won't have to ever deal with that nurse again. I know it doesn't magically fix everything, but I hope that between your MFM and the tech taking care of business, and setting an end date, that you can breathe and even enjoy these last weeks of pregnancy.

But I think Amazon has their own diapers now so maybe that's changed. I think you can get Amazon mom free with prime but like I said, it never seemed worth it to me.

Well we decided not to pay for a BJs membership on top of Prime. But I can have Target ship to my house for free since I have a redcard(which they declined the day I activated it so I couldn't save 5% on the crib 😖). Good to know that they have better prices!

FYI if you're in the US and you haven't ordered your Amazon Box yet, I'm pretty sure they're in stock!

We have up Costco for Amazon Prime. Diapers through subscribe and save were cheapest for me but only if I had five items to get the extra discount. I get our soaps, cleaners, contact solution, wipes, and a few other staples thriugh subscribe and save so I always have enough stuff to get the big 20% off discount. I also regularly check for Amazon coupons and open box discounts. I would also just buy another thing of diapers if I was well stocked on everything else. Target/Walmart was only cheaper if I had coupons AND they did the “$25 gift card with a $100 baby purchase” thing. I’m also a psycho about stockpiling diapers when I find them at a good price. I have 5 boxes of size 1s and 2 boxes of size 2s for this LO already. I know I’ll need them or can exchange them.

Yes Leaf 🌱 I get a LOT of things through subscribe&save.($250 on this months delivery!?😲) So it is usually not an issue to get 5 things each month. I guess I need to learn how to check coupons and what is this open box discount you speak of? I'm buying Little Snugglers for newborn size because I want to make sure they're good to start. After the first package I think I'm gonna try the Amazon brand of they're cheaper. ETA -Oh they're not. Little Snuggles size 1 - 13¢/count, Luvs size 1 - 10¢/count, Amazon Mama Bear size 1 - 14¢/count. This is with S&S 5+ items.

I took a sick day today because although the cold is better, I knew there was no way I could make it up the subway steps without dying. Hopefully by Thursday I'll have my very minimal lung capacity back.
I was planning on starting my binge watching today but the remote that I need for Amazon or Netflix is MIA. Womp.

Rama, so glad to hear your good update. And thanks for the headsup on the amazon box! I just ordered mine. I've had a day and a half. I got a call from the school nurse at 9:30 saying DS was looking nauseous and could I please pick him up. As soon as I walked in to get him, he projectile vomited three times all over me and the nurse. Poor baby. I spent the rest of the day looking after him, disinfecting the house, trying to get work done and take calls, and disinfecting some more. Today is my day to work late (until 7 and then I have a meeting until 10), so as soon as DH got home at 3:30 I came back to work. Stomach bug I guess. The nurse said nothing particular had been going around, and he doesn't have a fever or anything. He just can't keep anything down. FX I stay healthy. I can't deal with a stomach virus on top of mastitis at 35 weeks.

Thanks, auri. I can't remember the last time he had a bug like this! He was so sad and embarrassed. He kept saying "Mama I'm so sorry I got barf on your coat/shoes/pants" with these hot little tears coming down his face. My poor baby. Its hard to see them uncomfortable.

Adding that to the "things that have made me cry today" list. I hope your little guy feels better quickly.

Hi! I came in here to update quickly earlier and then my MIL called me. Sorry guys!! I am home, no baby today! But I am scheduled for an induction next Tuesday.
My blood pressure was back down today and with my lack of other major pre e symptoms they are not in a huge hurry to deliver me. I don't technically have a diagnosis of pre e, which would warrant delivery anytime after 37 weeks. The protein in my urine alone warrants delivery at 39 weeks... So she wants to get me there and then induce.
My US today was good. I have an NST on Friday. Strict instructions to return should any other symptoms present.
I feel ok about this plan but I also can't help but worry I am going to swing into full blown PE at some point and it's going to become a big emergency.
So that's the latest on me.
Thank you for all of the birthday wishes!!

I was just thinking this same thing cornpop! I came in here to post and as my internet sucks and was super slow with my original post, I see we got an update! Glad to hear your symptoms aren’t calling for delivery ASAP nuggetrn. Hopefully your body can stay chill til Tuesday!
