I don't really get kicks anymore. It's all shoving and rolling these days. Ouch. I think she's out of room.

robot same here. I went for a facial earlier and must've driven my esthetician crazy because I kept having to readjust due to the swift body slams to my ribs.

Maternity leave Day 2 consisted of a preschool visit where DD got to participate for an hour while I observed and filled out paperwork. She did so good! Until we had to leave. Apparently saying bye to each kid and teacher individually to learn their names...and then like 7 kids lining up at the fence to wave goodbye as we drove off...was not enough for little missy.
Everyone we have seen that asked her how school went her answer has been "We played! I painted! *bursts into tears* but mommy didn't let me say bye to my new friends. Nope. We just left!!!"
Tomorrow I have a chiro appointment. Then Thursday I have my OB appointment. I really hope I'm showing some progress. I'm in pain all day long and would really like a glimmer of hope that this baby will not be inside of me anymore sometime soon.

Hiked two miles on the mountain this morning (one while carrying my two year old) and walked another mile and a half this evening. C'mon!

I have been waiting since last night to be able to take a shower. The MW came in half an hour ago and said that my bloodwork was good and they can take out my IV, but the nurse hasn't been back in yet. V is coming to see us again in a half an hour, and I have to feed L again soon. I just want to be clean and in my own clothes before then.

I got teased about getting my iv out multiple times and they kept changing their minds. Hope you get your shower soon!

The dog is at the groomer and he should be done in 20ish minutes. I want ice cream or frozen yogurt. Unfortunately, it's just after 10am and no one is open to sell or serve it yet. Maybe a frap will satisfy my craving.
Update: McDonalds sells McFlurries ALL DAY.

Just had a MW visit and all is well. Slightly relieved since I am sooo swollen but I figured it was fine since it’s exactly like with DD. Now I’m sitting outside, enjoying an iced drink at Starbucks, for a few minutes before I have to go get DD from preschool.

We had E’s weight check this morning. She was up to 7lbs 1.5oz so that’s 11oz in 9 days! Makes me happy because she doesn’t nurse very long at all so I was a little worried she wasn’t getting enough milk.

I was a weirdo & kept my hep lock in until it was absolutely certain I was being discharged. I have horrible veins & it takes 2+ pokes & multiple veins to get it in. Not going through that more than once.
I have a one week post op with my OB today. We’re taking the toddler to my grandma & the baby with us. We also have to make a stop at Target & the library. I have a cookbook on hold & the big kid has a book due.

I had 2 dreams last night where they ended up with me in a very public bathroom attempting to pee with people all around me. Awkward!

I was going to make some lactation cookies to freeze on Monday, but didn't since I ended up keeping DD home that day. I hope I can find some time to get a batch made at some point before baby is here.

My dog is being a big baby today, and I wanted to practice with my sling, so this happened while I was cooking dinner lol. He was confused but not unhappy.
