I got my first perfect family comment yesterday. I think my current theory is that people either just automatically lose brain cells when talking to pregnant women, or their IQ automatically drops. Oh yeah this irritates me! Everyone comments how lucky we are to “finally” have a boy. Dh must be so happy. You’re fine now right, bc you got your boy? No. None of this. We have a healthy baby. 4 is our max no matter what. And honestly, adding a boy genuinely complicates things and dh agrees with this. Those kind of quotes are annoying. It was like the cashier at the grocery store the other day asking if this was our last child. Actually, I am 99% sure it is. Then she was like you don’t want more. So in a round about way I told her even if we want more it probably won’t happen because IVF is the only way we can get pregnant due to losing both my tubes. If she wants to give us 10,000 + dollars we will try again. I will be avoiding her line at the grocery store for a long time.

woodenshoes hugs fx it goes quick! i am currently regretting not putting dd down for her nap myself and missing out on a snuggle with her. re: comments - i feel like most people have alright intentions but really they just need to keep their mouths shut. i am shocked by the stupid comments that come from people that have kids and have been through it. i have gotten the “you’ll just have to keep trying for that boy” a few times🙄 mind your own beeswax

I'm here for the live blogging of the births Our cooking class was actually really fun. We made chocolate mousse, creme brulee, and lemon tart. Yum. The lemon tart was the best. I think after the 16th I'm going to make that lemon cake that is supposed to put you into labor.

Someone’s gonna have to help me surgically put my eyeballs back in. I’ve been laying down off and on all afternoon with cramps. Hey husband invited his dad over - ugh, but fine, they’ll get takeout.
He just said, “oh, H wants to come with us to get takeout!” I’m like, um, yeah, you’re taking BOTH kids.
He’s annoyed to take both of them. But I’m, you know, very pregnant and laying down. So. Nope.
Argh!

cornpop now we all want lemon cake! And lemon tart. And... If you have a recipe that's easier than the cupcake recipes I'm finding LMK.

Thinking of you polson!! Hoping the pit is doing its job without being too intense. I just went through DS1's newborn and 3m clothes (just in case) and I have allll the feels. Was he really ever that tiny?? I'm sad that some have stains that really showed up over the past two years in storage, but I'm hoping they'll come out. Oh these tiny baby clothes...it's getting real 😭

All the dessert talk makes me more excited to have this baby. I am indulging in some of the carbs I gave up due to GD soon.
I am all checked in and just chilling with the cervidil in tonight. I don’t expect much to happen until tomorrow. I am just going to complain about how much I hate getting IVs. Nurses can never get them in on the first try. It took 2 tries again today. I have bad IV veins or skin or something. Getting them put in makes me queasy.

woodenshoes Lovetit for being checked in and starting - I hope all goes smoothly and you get some rest tonight! And lots of sympathy. I hate IVs too and they always have the hardest time getting them in. Honestly, it was worse than the epi and I begged them to take it out ASAP after delivery.

We had our baby shower today and got so many cute clothes and diapers. My sister made us a diaper cake and my cousin's girlfriend made us cupcakes with onesies and socks and it was the cutest thing. I thought I took a picture but I guess I didn't and I'm so bummed.
Carseat is finally installed and bags are packed so baby can come anytime now.
