My mundane random is brought to you by BuyBuyBaby. I've been waiting on my glider (they said 6-8 weeks) and I stalk my online portal to see if it's been delivered. So I called on Saturday to change shipping locations since we are moving. I'm put on hold for 15 mins, and I give up.
I go up there yesterday to talk to someone in person and of course the only person who can change it works M-F. I get a phone call this AM and low and behold, the chair is actually at BBB! Like if someone would have just taken a look at my order, I would have been able to get it yesterday. And from the sound of it, the chair has been there for awhile.
It's not a huge deal, it's just the store is 30+ minutes away. But I'm so glad to have the glider before baby comes!

@easilyunamused I'm pretty pissed at BBBY. I don't know why they send coupons when EVERYTHING is excluded .

We also have an UPPAbaby stroller that we couldn't use a coupon for, so we used some gift cards. I think the brands exclude themselves if I remember correctly. I also think it's stupid that diapers and wipes are excluded. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And I signed up for Prime to get the 15% discount instead of the 10%. Ended up working out fine, but I was really annoyed at the time.

The back of the chair is so low you can't rest your head. Even though we specifically asked the guy if it would be tall enough. So yeah. We are taking it back and maybe getting another one? But that'll probably be months until I get it. Guys. All I wanted was this stupid glider. And it took forever to purchase it and for it to come. My fragile emotional state can not handle this. 😩

@easilyunamused That sucks!! DH and I looked around a lot for a glider. We have a more contemporary style, and the only ones we liked were, like, $800+. I ended up ordering one on Amazon, and we LOVE it. We have one for the nursery (it's in our room now) and one in the living room. Of course without knowing your budget, I highly recommend this one if you're interested: Dutailier Lungo Upholstered Swivel Glider, Dark Grey www.amazon.com/dp/B00Y284WQE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_-l-FzbPWZ4R63Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The gliding ottoman is very important to me, and that's where it starts to get pricey. I see you can get it for a little over 700. It's crazy how much more it is just for an ottoman.

Thank goodness, I was in a panic, even still damn MH's monster genes for being so tall! At my last BPP U/S on the 17th baby weighted 2.6kg which is 5lb 11oz or there about if I remember correctly. Gaining 250gr/week would make baby just under or around 4kg at birth (if she arrived around my due date that is) which would be fine but I rather not have her grow much bigger lol ouch!

Do babies really grow an lb a week at the end? I may need to start praying for my vag 🙈 They estimated that the baby weighed 7 lbs 2 oz at my 36 week ultrasound and he came out at 7 lbs 6 oz. so the estimates can be way off and they may not gain half pound per week, even with the +/- 1 lb margin of error on the estimate.

@easilyunamused I'm sorry about the glider 😢
My dad bought me a lazy boy recliner that I used and I love it. So comfy and they have awesome sales. But that doesn't solve your gliding ottoman wish. 😞

But that doesn't solve your gliding ottoman wish. 😞 +1 on the lazy boy recliner! We had one that rocked and reclined. It was so soft and comfy - I spent a lot of time in it with DS. Unfortunately the insect infestation at our old place claimed that as a casualty 😢 DH is ordering a new glider/ottoman for the nursery at our new place. Hope that one is just as comfy! Will find out in a month...

Will find out in a month... Yes it's amazing. Rocks, reclines, perfect for this unfortunate nights sleeping in the nursery LOL And when we are done having babies it can be moved to the living room for general use... if they can pry it out of my grasp. 😂 Hope your new one is super comfy!

But that doesn't solve your gliding ottoman wish. 😞 Thanks, we hopefully figured it out. MH called bbb and they said they'd contact the manufacturer about getting another seat cushion. So hopefully that'll fix the issue!

I have my dr appointment today and I'm hoping it shows some progress! I think MH will be able to go with me and we can asked about why to expect for the induction on Friday. I hope I can come to peace about a decision.
