guster it’s called the Lodge at Woodloch, in PA. They have a sister property that’s a family resort (think Dirty Dancing) but this is adults only. It’s my 3rd time here- I come with the same girlfriend each time. It’s got a nice spa & classes ranging from yoga and meditation to spin. Also a ton of jacuzzis and a super nice restaurant. It’s my happy place I'm jealous! I hope you have an amazing time.

My family is ruining my due date. I know that sounds dramatic (and I am highly emotional today), but I'm exhausted trying to keep some boundaries in place and keep my expectations low.
I've cried all morning so far 😢

I also scored a dress from Banana that was $80 for $24. I got baby gifts for my next two friends having babies, Dh bought two pairs of pants and three shirts, and I got C a couple of shirts. Definitely a win. Off to lunch then home.

Finished my doctors appointment. Baby looks good. One of the problems I have been dealing with (a bump) he took care of today so in two days the pain will go away. The doctor thinks i could go into labor any day now. Next appointment is Wednesday.

You guys are chatty today! The house cooled down nicely last night, not that it'll do much good with temps in the mid-80s today. Hopefully the AC guy comes early enough and can get us back up and running. Also my 4pm was cancelled so I'll probably leave at 4 to get a jump on the weekend. I mean, I'll probably get a milkshake and stop by TJ Maxx rather than spending that extra time with my family, but I'll see them plenty over the 3 day weekend. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) In slightly more serious news, I'm thinking the drive to Mass on Sunday might be the perfect time to talk to DH about whatever is going on with him. I had wanted to avoid that, not wanting to get super emotional right before spending a few hours with family (and my sisters' new family who are currently strangers) but it needs to be done, plus I'm feeling a bit emotionally detached. By that I just mean that I think I can actually have a productive conversation. It's sure about time!

Thanks guys. No one is being mean, just making everything about them...per usual. I'm just tired of it all.

I'm sorry dapostrophe , that is not what you need right now. I think you need some wireless head phones, and just waltz around the house like ![](https://media3.giphy.com/media/3oEdv5m61sfRTQ1IxW/giphy.gif)

I'm sorry, dapostrophe. Your family needs to get it together! joelies, I hope the car chat goes well for you guys. Do you think he'll be receptive to the talk?

wineallthetime - I mean, he'll have no where to hide? Heh. Seriously though, he's usually the one to start the uncomfortable conversations so I assume he'll be willing to talk. I'm just a bit concerned that he'll talk himself in a circle like the last time we talked about his depression. But I've gotta try.

It's better to not have to look at them when you're upset, lol.

FFS, the earliest the AC repair guy can get the part we need is Tuesday. It's in the mid/high 80s tomorrow and should be around 90 tomorrow. I guess I should just be happy that the boys are both more or less okay with having fans running in their rooms.

Watching 6 kids age 7 to 5 months is no joke. The older ones were mostly fine and there was really only one fighting incident. The baby had a blowout in her car seat that I discovered right after their mom left, don’t miss that problem lol. Then she was fine and happy until like 25 mins before her mom came back and just wanted me to hold her upright while I walked. She didn’t want anything to do with her bottle. It was not a big deal though. It is freaking hot out. I am going to blow up our big inflatable pool and fill it while the girls are napping/resting. I want to sit in the water. Public pools don’t open for another week.

dapostrophe might I suggest begging your doctor to keep you at the hospital as long as possible when the time comes?

DD’s friend who is here was born 2 days after DD. They just discovered they were born at the same hospital and since I had a csection, they were there together 1 night. They are convinced that they became friends then.

They are convinced that they became friends then. That is beyond adorable and a great story when they grow up! Along those lines, Dh and I found out that we where delivered by the same midwife. She was already retired when I was born, but no one else was available.

They are convinced that they became friends then. That's so fun! I went to elementary/middle school with the boy who has the same birthday as me..our moms shared a room in the hospital! I'm an hour and 2 min older than him. It was a super fun connection.
