Had my OB appt and I'm 2 cm and cervix is soft and low. He could feel her head so she is very low. He offered a membrane sweep and I agreed because I feel so sick today and am getting another migraine. It threw me off when he asked and now I wish I said no because we have tickets to take DD to Daniel Tiger live on Monday and I really want to be able to go with her. But I'm also ready to not feel so sick and miserable.

OK I just talked to my boss and my last day is Wednesday. She was so understanding. I'm relieved. I can't sit at this desk anymore and I have no more pants that fit.

I've been crampy for a few hours so I had a nap and I don't want to kill anyone anymore.
I was getting a little nervous. How many times are we gonna play that game before it's the real deal?

DS1 was being extra lovey this morning, I’m like “do you know something I don’t know?” He said “yes mummy”.
So could be baby day or just could be toddlers toddler-ing.

Post partum moms - just a gentle reminder/unsolicited advice not to forget to keep up the colace for a bit. Some of the best advice I got last time was to take it a little longer than you think you need to.
Your squish pictures and birth stories are giving me strength! I wish y’all could bottle their newborn smell and post that too 😂

Thanks for checking up on Rama for us whatsit I was worried about her too. I finally got more than 4 hours of sleep last night. I think I had about a total of 12 hours sleep since I went in for my induction Sunday night. We should be bringing L home this morning as long as he did well overnight. I can’t wait to see DS1 and for the boys to finally meet. How's baby Lane doing? Did he get to go home today?

I’ve hit Mom level 10. I primed a glasses strap to keep my glasses on my face during feedings when I’m constantly looking down. Pair that with oily skin (bc when was the last time I even washed my face?) and my glasses kept sliding down and I had no hands to push them back up. I look like such a nerd now.

We successfully turned DS1's bathtime into a DH-only affair. Bedtime, on the other hand. If I'm not home, he's fine doing the whole routine with just DH, but if I'm home, he loses it unless I'm back there too. I was hoping to figure this out before the baby arrives so he doesn't have a negative association with the change in routine, but I'm at a loss. ArielMermaid Mine too! He was pushing so hard and painfully against my belly button last night that I jumped and dropped an f-bomb. These kids are ready to get OUT.

Huh. I've apparently had my due date wrong for...a long time. My actual EDD is March 29th, not 28th. It was even wrong in my sig on here. I've had my weeks+days correct the whole time, so I apparently put the correct EDD into the apps I'm using and all that, but. Huh.
I mentioned it to DH and he was like, "I THOUGHT you had it wrong, but you were so confident every time you'd said the 28th, I didn't want to say anything." I have no idea when my brain swapped the dates in my head. It's really not a big deal, I'm just kind of baffled and laughing at this ultimate pregnancy brain.

I love that pic leatherpants. I’m also glad they ended up with a bit more time between their birthdays like you wanted.

I was up all night with cramping. I couldn’t focus on anything else but it wasn’t painful. Baby was going insane, the tightening was going lower than ever and it felt similar to gas pain at some points. Idk what’s wrong with my body.

leatherpants I honestly don’t even know. I think I blacked out. There were definitely some scrubees, a shampoo bar with a description about beach hair, and I think some kind of ocean salt body scrub? Who knows. It’ll be a nice surprise when it shows up 😂😂😂

Sooo cute leatherpants!! My heartburn was awful last night so I was up for an hour between 3-4. I tried my apple cider vinegar and then threw it all up sooo that didn't help. My hip pain while sleeping is also kicking in. I am so ready to be done. I've decided the 11th would be a great day to have a baby. It's mine and the H's dating anniversary so I think it would be sweet to finish our family on the same day it started. I broke our upstairs bathtub last night ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) The knob has been a little wonky for a while but last night it stopped working all together. That was fun. Luckily my H was able to get it apart and shut the water off, but we have no time in the next week or so to call a plumber so it looks like I'll be taking baths downstairs in the smaller tub. Womp.

nevertoomanyshoes Did the prednisone help you? I had a horrible night last night and am going on about 2 hours of sleep. I can't do this for another 3.5 weeks. If it helped you, I'm thinking I'm going to call my OB this morning and ask for a prescription.
