Tuesday - baby day?????

[danib]

How are you dashook?????? Sending you all the love today!!!


My boys slept in today. My alarm went off at 7 and my bed was empty. Like I legit only have that alarm as a back-up, never actually had to rely on it, because thr kids usually wake up sometime between 5:30 and 6:30. I had to wake them both up. I really wish I could have just let thrm sleep (see how long it would last) but of course its a school day.

[dashook]

danib that’s the worst!! That happened to us recently too, where we had to be somewhere at 9 and the kids still were asleep at 8:15. I soooo badly wanted to let us all keep sleeping.

I really hope today is baby day. I’ve been contracting every 4-5 minutes since 12:15 am but haven’t made much progress. They finally started Pitocin about 45 minutes ago so I’m just kind of waiting for things to pick up. I only slept like 2 hours and know I should rest but I’m too anxious.

I’m also super emotional about not being with DS today. It’s his 4th birthday 😭

Well in non-fun news. H and I almost got into a head-on collision this morning. Some lady decided that my turning lane (going one direction) was just an extension to get to her turning lane (opposite direction) and came barreling through it even though I was already in it. I had to brake and swerve and thank God no one was behind me.

Thinking about you dashook!!

Wow danib I'm so glad you're ok. How scary.

I'm working from home today and C is still asleep. I really don't want to get up but I should probably get on my computer at some point.

[sophiegrace]

Wow dashook!!! Good luck and I hope it all progressed quickly. Remember the opening flower!!!

That’s terrifying danib and I’m so glad you were able to swerve away without anyone else there.

[sophiegrace]

Finishing my coffee and headed to work. I was supposed to go in later anyway for paperwork, but there’s an unexpected surgery now on the schedule. I’m confused and don’t really know what to expect. Of course M is still sleeping like it looks like all of these other kiddos did today. Never when we can sleep in though...

[waitwhat]

The worst danib. The same thing happened to us yesterday! And also I hate stupid drivers. I’m glad nothing serious happened!

Good luck today dashook!! We are thinking of you!!

[waitwhat]

Over the weekend I told my H we need to be careful about the swing set since it’s not anchored in anymore so it’s really going to be vulnerable in any sort of strong winds and maybe we should get sand bags or something to put on it so it doesn’t fall again. He said it would be fine because we had “really really bad winds that night”. Well guess what we had last night? STRONG WINDS. And guess what happened? IT FELL OVER AGAIN. You can bet your ass he’s buying a new one. I’m salty.

[sophiegrace]

It’s hitting me. A baby!! Oh my gosh. Would totally be cool with a live blog dashook. You know because I’m sure you are so rested and the exact thing you want right now is to be reporting the state of your lady bits to us all.

I just slapped my forehead. Come on dude!

Good luck dashook!

O woke up with crusty eyes and told me his ears hurt. Ugh! Apparently his sickness he had over winter break is back. So I moved his follow up that was supposed to be Thur to today. Luckily I was wfh today anyway since we are taking my car to have it’s windshield replaced.

[dashook]

danib I’m so glad you guys are okay! People drive like such twats.
sophiegrace not much to report ATM. Contractions are 2-3 minutes apart and painful enough now that I have to breathe through them, but still not doing too much from what I can tell. I’ll definitely keep you guys posted if/when things ever pick up!

[waitwhat]

I just got back from pre-k registration. Omg it was awful with both kids. They were climbing all over the chairs and running in and out of peoples offices.

I’m not sure if I did the right thing signing B up for the morning session with the full day as my second choice.The majority goes for full day so I have a better chance of getting him into the morning session but part of me wonders if I should have tried for full day.

OH my.  I'm glad y'all are okay.  

I had some lady almost hit my car yesterday on my way home.  I honked and had to slam on my breaks.  She stopped in the middle of the road so I had to slam on my breaks again, got out of her car and started yelling at me.  WTF?

Holy Shit!!! This lady just kept going on her merry way without a care.

I definitely took a pic of her car with my phone just in case she continued her craziness.

[classymrsa]

I had a dream about all of y'all last night. We were basically just hanging out at a restaurant, tasting all kinds of yummy things and swapping recipes.

Good luck today dashook!! So exciting!

That's so scary danib. Glad y'all are ok! Yesterday I had to slam on my brakes because some lady had her dog off leash (next to a busy intersection no less) and it ran out in front of my car. And then this morning I had a truck almost pull out in front of me and gesture like somehow me driving the speed limit down the road was my fault. Wtf is wrong with people?

waitwhat I'm rolling my eyes over here about the swing set. About the school, is there a way to call and ask to do full day if you decide that's what you'd prefer?

[waitwhat]

classymrsa yes the lady mentioned I could call and change it. I’m going back and forth in my head right now on what I should do. Part of me wants to leave it alone because his chances are good to get in but then I’m wondering what if I chose full day and he got in.

[goldenlove]

Yikes what is up with all the crazy drivers lately? tgrimes getting out of her car to yell at you is insane. I seriously hate people sometimes.

I was laughing, which probably just made her more mad.  Like, why are you yelling at me for something you did?

[starbuck]

tgrimes, that face palm gif is everything

[dashook]

They pulled out the Cook catheter about 50 minutes ago and turns out I was dilated to 8 cm, it just didn’t fall out 🤦🏻‍♀️ They broke my water and things are getting very intense now.

No epidural (though my resolve on that is wavering). Hoping for a baby soon!!

[waitwhat]

YESSSSS for progress dashook!

[danib]

OMGeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

[goldenlove]

Yay dashook!!! You can do it!!

[sophiegrace]

OMG!!!!! You’ll be holding a baby so soon!! Can’t wait to hear if it’s a boy or girl. I hope you’ve picked out an amazing dinner for someone to go pick up for you from some delicious place tonight.
