We returned home at 6:30 last night. I wish we had some time to settle back in but reality is slapping us in the face today. I’m already being bombarded by work and I have my annual evaluation this afternoon. Actual footage of me this morning.

It's Monday again. I'm trying to not buy any clearance candy and I texted MH to not buy any either. His fasting glucose a few weeks ago was 98 and my GTT is only 7ish weeks away so neither of us need any candy. I can't stay away from the ice cream so I get plenty of sugar already.

It may have been all the crappy eating during vacation, but I feel huge now.

Morning! We woke up to snow today 😭 It's been years since we've had snow in April and I'm just so sick of it already!

The kids and I were going to stay the week at my mom's, but at the last minute I kind of freaked out and didn't want to be that far away from MH for a week.
I'm so sensitive while pregnant. I cried half way home because I wanted to be with my mom and sister but I didn't want to be away from MH. 🙄
So, DD stayed and ds, MH, and I got home at 8:30 last night.

DH's grandma was put on hospice care last week. We saw her yesterday after being told she was "fading fast." She's still eating and drinking and alert. She was so happy to see us, particularly J. I have a lot of experience with hospice care and she most certainly is not fading fast.
I had a really good couple of days last week, but not so much Sunday and not today. I should probably just ask to titrate up on my Zoloft. My OB is going to call sometime this week to check in.

I have the rage today. I should probably text MH and warn him before I get home from work. I think I need a workout and then the rest of my Ben & Jerry's.

PennyCandy I'm sorry about your H's grandmother. I'm glad you had a good visit, but that does sound strange to say she is "fading fast". Hope your doctor makes contact soon!

I'm sorry to hear that about your H's grandmother PennyCandy. That's really concerning. Is there another provider you can receive services from? Also, I hope you hear back from your doctor soon.

Hi ladies! I am sick. I have a terrible sore throat and just wish I could fast forward to when I feel better. I hate being sick and pregnant.

cara, klw, Thank you. The fading fast comment came from DH's aunt. It's hard to get a straight answer from anyone so we never really know what's going on for sure. Hospice is definitely appropriate, but I think we have a while to go yet given that she's eating, drinking, and alert.

Hi ladies! I am sick. I have a terrible sore throat and just wish I could fast forward to when I feel better. I hate being sick and pregnant. I had this last week, fortunately it seemed like each day was a new symptom with the old one resolved so it wasn’t unbearable. I hope it’s the same for you! My advice is to get a spoon of honey, multiple nurses told me this is key in getting over a sore throat quickly. Hugs! We just signed a contract to remodel our house this spring. It’s invasive enough that we will have to live elsewhere and boardnour dogs. Oh and in the middle of it all, we have a trip to Maui. The work should be done by the end of June with LO due Aug 4th. The fortunate part is MH family business is Furniture and there are nice apartments in the building for us to live in for free while the work is done with the in laws across the hall. They love DD and hopefully this will mean I get kidfree breaks in the afternoon while they play! Am I completely nuts for agreeing to this?!

pickles, maybe a little nuts but it'll be worth it It'd be worse if you were living in the construction zone though so that apartment will be key to your sanity.

Now that's what I call nesting 😉 I don't think you're nuts. You're better off doing this now then trying to do it with a newborn.

I feel so much better after eating ice cream and working out 🙌. Of course eating half a pint of ice cream whenever I want isn't a good idea 🤣.

It’s been an odd day. First, there was a fire drill at my job. Usually no big deal, but I’m on the 19th floor. I’m going to be very sore for the next few days.
Then I get an auto dial text from daycare that there was a fire, everyone is safe. Please come get your kid because we aren’t allowed back in the building. Luckily DH was working from home and was able to get her.

goldenbird, here’s the tl;dr version of what happened last time the ILs were alerted last time I was in labor. I didn’t want to clog up the royals thread. MH texted them when we were admitted with DD (around 1am) and they were there by 6 that morning. We had told them before hand that no one but MH and my mom would be in the delivery room at any time and that our hospital policy was no visitors for at least 1 hour after birth. She was born at 3:30pm and I moved out of l&d to a recovery room about 2 hours later. They were literally peeking in the window of that room while the nurses got me settled. So I felt like I had no choice but to let them in even though I really wanted to sleep. I know MH will not agree to not call them, and it would be even trickier anyway since, barring an emergency, this birth will be scheduled well in advance. I can’t decide if putting them in charge of DD is a good idea since I definitely don’t want her hanging out in a hospital waiting room for 12 hours.

(quoted from royals thread) Thats nice that they will listen to you. Mine won’t. Well...I haven't actually brought it up yet. 🙊 I'll have to let you know what they say. If they don't bring it up by like 36 weeks I'll just casually ask which option they prefer. Or uh, make MH do it. Definitely make YH do it. That way they know that’s what their son wants and it’s not just you. United front and all. I had to remind MH that I would be mostly naked and would he want either of my parents around while doctors were messing with his private parts before he got on board, but he did eventually back me up on it and that made it easier.

That's tough imapenguin, especially since you have DD to think about. I hope they'll agree to stay with her and have that be their 'job'. I can't really imagine that my ILs would try to rush down, knowing it could take like a day or more. Since they don't live close anymore, if they wanted to go to sleep they'd have to drive an hour to get home. But I know if MH texted 'it's close' or something, they'd be in the car if possible lol. They both work FT, so that's good, but SMIL has talked about taking time off around then. If for some reason I need to have a scheduled CS, I'll consider telling them a ballpark time to be able to visit. Just an induction could still take like a whole day so I wouldn't give them a heads up for that. Can you tell this has been on my mind since the pee stick dried? 🤣

Yeah, I think I'll have a chat with him so he knows where I stand on it, in case FIL or SMIL bring it up to him. I know he will back me up whatever I decide.

I hope you’re feeling better soon catspajamas2! pickles - I don’t think you’re crazy. It sounds like a decent situation for the most part and it’ll be better to have it done before baby comes.
