This baby and DD1 both all up on the right side. Although last night this one felt like she was trying to escape out of my right side. I think she likes to keep her feet and hands by her head though because most movement I still feel low down. They called today and I have the diabeetus. Barely, by two points. :/ Noooo! Sorry to hear that, especially being so close!

Thanks. I had it with DD1 so I know the adjustments to make but I’m really going to miss my morning breakfast sandwiches.

H and I bought a storage unit yesterday so we can start decluttering and preparations for selling our house in the future. Also making room for my mom since she will be living with us after this LO is born. I am debating whether we should move DS1 and DS2 in together sooner or wait until just before my mom moves in which will be when LO is 3 months old.
Any suggestions on timing for merging 2 kids into the same room?

Picking up DD's big girl twin bed tonight, scored a nice one for a good price on FB Marketplace! Which means we can take the converted crib out of her room and move it to the nursery and maybe finally start to get things situated and organized in there. Also I just realized I need to buy some twin size sheets.... Hoping maybe next weekend we can manage to get their rooms painted.

My emoshuns, guys. It’s like being on a terrifying roller coaster & I pity my husband. Lol same here. I’ve been fine this whole pregnancy and then this week has been something... on one hand I feel bad that DH has taken the brunt of it but on the other he needs to really be a little more sensitive to where I am at right now. He needs to handle it a little better..

So I had an appointment today with the NP and I asked about scheduling the c-section. She said sure it should be possible now. When they called me to schedule they were already pretty full. I am just disappointed that I didnt get the opportunity earlier. Earliest I can schedule is for 39 weeks and I would like 39 exactly since Xmas is 1 week from that. I want to be home and feeling the best I possibly could. I got in for 39w1d dec 19th at 2pm. She still needs to call me Monday to make sure that no one else requested that slot at the same time.
My MIL offered to come stay with us for 2 weeks. Not sure how I feel about this. We mostly get along but she gets on my husbands and my nerves after extended time together. I am definitely going to have to think on that one some more.

jense927 do they have a cancellation list or anything that you could be on to get an earlier spot? I am sure some of the women scheduled may go into labor early or need to have a c-section before their appointment.

The nesting urge is hitting me hard today. I have this urge to clean and organize everything. I went into DS1’s room and cleaned out an entire trash bag full of junk and moved a bunch of stuff out to put into storage. I just got done cleaning off my desk for work and our bedroom too.

It’s definitely worth asking about! Thanks for the suggestion Also I am hardcore nesting mode too. It’s taking over my life lol.

Add me to the nesting list.
Like almost 29 weeks is the perfect time to wash all the blankets, swaddles, crib sheets you won’t be using and burp clothes right? Also cleaning out DD1’s closet so as soon as the weather participates we’re ready to go for fall.

I want to nest, but we have house improvements that need to be completed before little dude has a bedroom. If it’s not all done in time, I’m trying to remind myself that DD didn’t sleep in her room until she was 4 months old. And we’ll have snow days to be bored and do stuff. Right? Right. *takes deep breath*

Even though the baby won’t be here for a while, plus won’t be sleeping in his crib for literal months after his birth. Then there’s more important things I haven’t even started 😝

Dude, all the nesting. I've already rearranged and reorganized our entire bedroom. I've also been working on the nursery and B's room... and I have plans for basically every room in the house it's nuts. It all needed to happen so I'm glad the nesting urge is real. lol

I feel like nesting... I cleaned out b's baby clothes to give away what I won't be keeping about a month ago. Otherwise, my house is a disaster and I don't have a kitchen. My uncles come tomorrow to drywall the ceiling and some walls and the hvac guy is coming to reroute the vents. Cabinets should be here by the end of the week... my appliances are all over the front room. I haven't picked out flooring yet so we have wood floors that haven't been refinished since they were installed in the 50s (covered with carpet until recently).
But kitchen should be mostly done by end of September and the few final things I'll need to build/order should be done by mid October. Then I can finish painting the front room and hallway and have furniture in there and then nest!!!

Way overdid it yesterday: we painted DD's room to prepare for putting in her big girl bed and moved the partly de-assembled crib into the nursery. I was limping by the time we got the second coat done around dinnertime and had a bunch of Braxton Hicks that faded out once I re-hydrated myself and laid down fora while. MH is going to try and arrange to have some friends help when we paint the nursery, hopefully sometime next weekend. The good news is her room is painted, minus some decorative painting I want to do, and we can put together her new bed this afternoon and finally have her room redone, which I've been wanting to do since she turned two. Bye-bye ugly taupe and sage walls the previous owners put in! I'll post pics when everything is put together!
Oh, and yesterday morning I full on cried during during an episode of Fancy Nancy...

quijibo last week DS got this new garbage truck T-shirt and he loves it. I picked him up from pre-school and he says “Mom, I showed my friends my new garbage truck shirt and they didn’t say it was cool. So I tried to tell them it was new but nobody heard me” with a big pitiful frown. Heart melted.

I am seriously impressed by your attitude foxtober. We did a gut kitchen Reno in January that also spiraled into several other renovations and I was not pregnant and it caused me endless stress and anxiety. You seem so calm about it all. I hope it’s smooth sailing for you and you love the end result.

I have been nesting since the upstairs Reno was completed. Last week every storage container in my basement was reorganized, relabeled, and reconfigured to fit better and in more logical order on our shelving. I’ve already reorganized every closet and pantry in the house too 🤦🏼♀️. Now I need to focus on decorating the babies room and buying him some clothes and the other small essentials. I have no idea why I’m stalling so much on it because I love decorating and buying baby clothes. Maybe I’ll get my shit together soon.

I have been nesting for weeks. I have basically all baby stuff done and ready...Now I just keep adding things to a to-do list for the rest of the house. Seems like a great time to take everything out of the kitchen cabinets and reorganize them...
Work is a mess right now too and it is stressing me out so much. Only 34 more days in the office...I can do it. I think.

I really want to nest, but my energy level sucks. So I mostly just talk about all the stuff I want to do and do very little of it. Luckily MH is starting to nest, too, so he's motivating me to actually get stuff done. I'll be so glad to have DD's room sorted out at least. Next project is to go through and get rid of a ton of baby clothes we don't need.
