nuggetrn, I've had that book on my shelf for a couple of years and just never get around to reading it! I think I'll read it next. My mom has read a couple of her other books and loved them.

C slept the best ever last night. I still had to wake and feed him every three hours but I felt so amazing this morning and even got to take an additional nap this afternoon. Hallelujah. Four hours of sleep never felt so good.

Well newborn pictures took foreeever but I'm pretty sure we got some super adorable shots.
I gave in and ordered the Owlet. I was on the fence but Noelle has a tendency to turn on her side whenever I put her on her back so I'm really paranoid of her rolling onto her belly in the sleep sack. So that decided it.

yianna sending baby flipping vibes! you still have time🤞🏼 i also love the kate morton books. i haven’t been able to read anything since dd2 was born but i was just reading british detective novels before she came - ann cleeves is pretty good she writes the books that the shows shetland and vera are based on. i would like to pick up the woman in the window by aj finn. i’m hoping i’ll have some time and energy to get back into reading here soon!

We went to Bs genetic appt today and they gave us the official all clear (or as much as they can). There are more tests they can do but it seems pointless at this point. She did say if we ever have concerns or issues we can get the tests done. But everyone - all the doctors and every clinic - feels pretty confident that the Trisomy was confined to the placenta.
And she said that it was likely a fluke thing. Not likely to happen again (ha! No) and not because of my age.
He’s also growing well and is at 7lbs 2oz now so that’s good too.

Hi, I’m in prodromal labor hell and can’t sleep. They sent me from my appointment yesterday to L&D to check for progress but apparently i did the opposite as I was less effaced at the end of my hallway walking than at the beginning 🙄 Why does my body hate me so much?

I am trying to talk my baby into sleeping. Either I am getting worse at swaddling or she is just getting stronger. I had to bring out the baby straight jacket for her tonight. The swaddle sack thingy is working much better.
One of our outside cats came in through the dog door (something they typically only do in bad weather or if there is no food in the shed) and ate DD's pacifier off the couch. Makes me think there is no food. I'm so angry. It was a soothie pacifier that has bear ears and I am partial to them for obvious reasons. I found them at babies r us and hadn't seen them anywhere else and was thinking that was the only place I could get them. And of course now they are closing. Turns out Wal-Mart has them and I ordered them for store pickup like the crazy person I am. Because what if they run out between now and tomorrow when I go looking for them?!? Lol.
I own that this is probably nuts 😀

nuggetrn right? So rude, body. Get your shit together. And I’ve definitely ordered in store pick up for that very reason. Better yet, my neighborhood Walmart has a good baby section and you do free curbside pickup - if that’s an option for you, it’s so nice. My sister's dog eats DD’s pacis - it’s the worst bc he swallows them and I’m sure he’s going to die from some kind of intestinal blockage.

I am more annoyed than concerned at this moment honestly. I kept telling DH I hoped the dogs left them alone. I did not realize I had to be worried about a cat eating it.

I’m solidly in the “everything hurts and I’m dying” stage of pregnancy. 37 weeks is enough. I keep telling my husband I’m done and he keeps saying “no we need at least two more weeks!” Because of the renovation and I am at the point where I am going to punch him in the balls and scream ITS BEEN TWO YEARS.

I am attempting to recruit people to come hold my baby. My mom is coming over this afternoon and then MIL is coming over this evening. She will probably be an angel for them.

Omg yes this was totally my response when dh was annoyed about trying to fix our basement bathroom WHILE my cousin was here. Dude, it's been two years, the deadline was before my cousin came! Ok I didn't punch him, but there were words.

It’s not like any of this was a surprise. We planned this pregnancy. The deadline has been known since the start of the project BEFORE I got pregnant. I’m having a few sporadic contractions this morning and I half hope this baby comes early so I can spite yell YOU SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO ME. I WARNED YOU!

Oh my goodness and they are all soothie pacifiers too. Barf. Our dogs so far have not been interested in them but my brother's dog tried to grab one the first chance he got while he was here. These are the ones I have/need. Lol. I can't find a way to link from the Wal-Mart app. Next I need to find if they have these in 3+ months. I also discovered they have them in a blue/green package.

They do have them in 3+ and I want to say they have them in either 6 or 9 also. They were the only ones that DD would take when she was a baby.

I have soothie pacifiers in 3+ months but there are no ears. I sound obsessed.

Our photographer posted a sneak peek of the newborn photos from yesterday. Just one picture but so gorgeous! And when I saw it I 100% thought it was a picture of my first daughter from her newborn pictures. I can't get over how much they look alike. Poof
