Happy Good Friday. Daycare is close and I'm trying to figure out how to survive the day until mh gets home at 6. Maybe a trip to Menard

mwhip. She dropped a syringe of vitamin D on the floor and then lied to me about it after she stuck the whole thing in his bottle and I refused to give it to him. She wanted to poke him a million times for his blood draw and after 4 attempts I had to insist she get someone else. She called me a "princess getting the royal treatment" because I told her I'd never heated up a bottle here before. Usually I'm holding A and his cords don't reach that far so the nurses just heat it and give it to me. Nobody has ever asked me to do it, I just asssumed it was a nurse thing. She's also really negative and annoying in general. Oh hell no. To every single one of those. I would be asking for someone else.

This is a hard time on the parents and you don't need this!!! vino I'm joining you!

I read that to my mom since she's a nurse. Her mouth dropped open and she said you need to complain higher than even her manager. I think that warrants a write up.

Yesterday I received an invite to a baby shower....... that the mother-to-be is throwing for herself. Complete w registry info and the request that gifts be unwrapped. (I don’t understand this purpose, so if anyone knows, pls enlighten me!) I’m not going to the shower but I will prolly send a gift once the baby is born. This is all so tacky. Is this her first baby?

Morning. We are all off today, so that is nice, except N woke up a screaming mess and I barely got out to my Barre class on time. Now trying to get myself motivated and off to my mom's for the weekend..but both kids are being pills, so not exactly off to the greatest start.

I've heard of the gifts being unwrapped so they can put them on a table for people to look at and skip the gift opening. So strange.

wineallthetime Definitely complain again, all of those things are totally unacceptable. I am sorry you are having a rough time lately after being so close to going home. I'm hoping little A makes a quick turnaround! yummeecookee So much WTF to all of that! I love to celebrate people and all, but some of these parties get out of hand. I can't think of a reason she would want unwrapped gifts, what a strange request. Both my sister and SIL offered to throw me a shower for this baby and I was a firm "no" on that. It was a super nice of them, but I can't get over the tacky factor of asking anyone to come to a baby shower for a 5th kid.

We’re all off for the next four days together, Easter festivities tomorrow and Sunday, but we’re on like winter #17 here so no outside time this weekend. I can see it’ll be a weekend of The Last Jedi. 👍🏻

Morning! I'm working until noon today and then we're heading to Great Wolf Lodge for the night. The kids are super excited to swim. I still need to pack and get their Easter baskets ready for Sunday. WE're supposed to get freezing rain/snow tonight. Seriously, when is spring going to be here??

Morning! I am supposed to have my 32 week ultrasound today, but I got a confirmation for the wrong day while we were on vacation. I really hope they can get me in because my H is off today and the office is not close by.
I need them to tell me baby looks nice and snug in there, since all my May baby buddies have changed the game and gone March babies!

Be your own person and come when you're supposed to! Does she have a name yet?

Hello! I may need to throw down today. We had a bad nurse yesterday and I put in a request not to have her again....and we do. MH is telling me to call the nurse manager in right away to get her switched, but I'm slightly paralyzed in socially awkward hating confrontation fear. Call the nurse manager. They want to make sure you’re happy. ETA: oh yeah, hell no to that nurse. She needs to be reprimanded. You don’t talk to people like that.

It is her first baby. She also got married about 3 years ago and her family had a bridal shower for her then, so I can’t understand why she is throwing this for herself.

Morning. Just eating breakfast now and then we’re all getting ready and heading over to a friend’s house so the kids can play. DH is working today. Depending on how the rest of the afternoon goes we might go to the zoo. I need to pick up some fruit for the fruit salad I was assigned on easter. Plus I have to get my workout in.

Someone throwing a baby shower for themselves just makes me sad. Like I want to throw one for her now and I don't even know her.
I'm getting shit done today. Dropped C at school, got my Starbucks, deposited a check at the bank and now I'm getting my oil changed. Then I'm headed to Barnes and Noble for a Peter Rabbit plush for Cadence's Easter basket and an Easter book. Then I'm going to party City for egg fillers because Cadence said she wants an egg hunt at the house with just her so she can get all the eggs. Then I'll go to Target because, well it's Target.

wineallthetime No name yet, but we are getting closer on a list. I am one of those who waits to meet the baby before choosing a name, so hopefully one of the ones we like will "fit". It still seems so far away! What am I going to do without you guys for 8 more weeks?

Holy crap wineallthetime. No... just no. I’m glad you requested to speak w someone. All of it is over the top, but the princess comment is just so so not ok. I mean, even if she couldn’t do it for you, there are nice ways to express that. And of all departments NICU nurses should really be the most caring. Just no.
