mattsgirl2004 my left foot is the one that’s swelling the worse. Can we trade off a bit to even out? Love the new vehicle! Enjoy. Hope H is doing ok.

Oh hi. I’m lurking but forgetting to post most of the time. I can barely remember what all I read so please forgive me for not commenting on everything. ArielMermaid - hope the illness is short lived and “only” affects you. Hope everyone else is hanging in there ok - whether in the first few weeks with a newborn or the last few weeks of pregnancy.

I’m finally soaking my poor beaten and battered lady bits in a warm bath and it feels like heaven.
I just had to tell someone.

I online stress-shopped tonight. I decided to go ahead and get a new breast pump since it was fully covered by insurance and I'm not sure if my old one is wearing down. I'm giving the Spectra S2 a try - my old one is a Medela PISA but I've heard good things about the Spectra, so we'll see.
I celebrated spending $0 by trolling IG for two hours looking at diaper bags and, naturally, ended up ordering a new diaper bag. 🤷🏻♀️

I have slept zero. There is no way to lay down and not feel like death.

Good morning ladies! I think I've officially hit a wall and am just so done with work. I'm exhausted and it's so uncomfortable sitting at my desk all day. I meet with my boss this afternoon and am hoping she'll agree to letting me work from home one day a week for the next three weeks that I'm here. Ugh, ArielMermaid I hope you feel better soon. That is no fun. cp3 I also missed the pic, but am glad you were able to make it to the event as I know you were really looking forward to it.

I’m worried L has thrush. He doesn’t seem bothered or in pain when nursing, but last night he was screaming bloody murder during his bath and I noticed white/yellow on the roof of his mouth. I’m going to try to get a good look again this morning and decide if we need to call the pedi.

Em woke up with a fever so we're postponing our museum trip until Thursday. Hopefully by then she'll be better.
I think today we're going to make the labor inducing lemon cupcakes and maybe paint her nails so we still have a fun day.
She actually seems in good spirits so I hate skipping it, but I feel badly spreading her germs all over the museum. I'd be salty if I were other kids moms.

Didn't get much for sleep here last night. I have an OB appointment today and hopefully my doc will have a solution for this carpal tunnel pain or maybe she can expedite the process of getting approved and seen for injections in my wrists. Otherwise, just a GBS swab and cervical check. Shopping at Target and Hobby Lobby are on my to-do list today too.

I'm catching up on everyone's posts, sorry I've been sort of MIA.
We are snowed in with a blizzard today, which has me a wee bit nervous about being so close to my due date. I think I started losing bits of my mucus plug this morning. Snow anticipated to stop falling in about 6-7 hours. Also, the friends who are supposed to watch DS are all down with the stomach virus right now, so if I were to go into labor we would need all sorts of contingency plans.
Trying not to think about it though.

My back is so fucked up from puking so hard that I can’t sleep. The good news is I had toast and it has stayed put.

I feel like we were all sick/had crazy stuff going on, then had a bunch of babies, and now we’re back to being sick/crazy stuff going on.

Well the labor cupcakes are done. I don't know if they'll help, but they're certainly good.
I don't know why people complain about how long it took to make them, they were pretty on par with most of my cakes/cupcakes.
I'm also 80% through today's pineapple. I have already decided I never want to eat another pineapple.

I woke up super crampy this morning and was having contractions that started in my back. But then I got to my NST and the monitors only picked up one contraction and then they stopped. I'm super congested and feel like I'm getting a sinus headache. I wish my body would make up it's mind on these contractions. I can't take two more weeks of this false labor.
