My FIL watched DD yesterday so MH and I could clean our basement. He took her to McD's for lunch. She keeps talking about eating at "Old McDonald's" with Grandpa because she is the cutest.

I scheduled our Sibling Class at the hospital I'm delivering at. They only offer it every other month so my options were late Aug or mid Oct. Even with the shot, I'm still very nervous about delivering early, so August it is! It should be really cute. Thank you for reminding me to do this!

I am in charge of snacks for board game night. Why would they put a pregnant woman in charge of this? I am buying so much.

DS is in his first solo dance class. He needs...a lot of positive affirmation. The kid loves attention.

I made a pan of brownies today. They are delicious. Now to give half the pan away before I eat them all.

lol misskilljoy. I went to Walmart for a couple of things at lunch time today. That was a bad idea. This is the second time I have gone at lunch and ended up with almost $100 in groceries. I just kept telling myself while walking around that grocery shopping hungry was a bad idea.

I have been battling a stomach thing all day yesterday and today. Yesterday my joints were all achy too but that is gone today. I thought I was better, ate lunch, and my body responded with a big, fat resounding Lol, nope. I keep freaking out thinking this means baby is coming. Logically I know it is a stomach bug but I am still freaking out mildly on the inside. Welcome to Over Analyzing Town, population of 1.
My toddler has been pretty clingy lately too but he really enjoys poking my belly and saying "a beebee". He also gives the baby kisses. My heart melts every time but I know it will be a different story when the actual, outside baby is here. For now I will live in the dream that everything will be glorious and he will love him more than anything.

I hope you feel better soon roloma. I tossed and turned all night, dreaming I was going into labor because I had such bad back pain coupled with cramps and painful BH. I'll totally join your Over Analyzing Town if there's room.

Well I've officially entered the stage where I am finding it hard to wipe my bum. To early for this!!! More TMI: my pregnancy with DD is when I learned to wipe by reaching behind me instead of in front. Out of necessity lol.

I'm not entirely sure we don't share a kid. The ILs took her to McDs yesterday and she also calls it Old McDonald's. Haha! She also now knows that McDs chicken nuggets are superior to other nuggets which is a problem when I make them at home.

I, too, have the butt wiping problems. My arms are too short for this giant belly and I can't quite get the twist at the waist I used to. (and for the sake of TMI - I always wipe from behind, as one should) It would make for some interesting video footage if one was taping me stretching with all of my might.

I bought a significant amount of cake to drown my job sads into.

Cake dampens bad feelings cnf, definitely. I did make my zucchini loaf last night, yay. But decided to only make one for now and make sure I liked the recipe, so will have to grate more and bake more soon.

I feel like I need to clarify that I have always wiped front to back. Am I just adding to the TMI? LOL

I'm hoping the number this morning was due partly to an extra salty dinner 😬 You did not, I complained without divulging. My high school position was cut, so I don't currently have a placement for when I go back to school in three weeks. I likely won't know which building, or buildings, I'll be in until days before, but it's highly likely I'll either be traveling or put into a high turn over (read; shitty, dysfunctional, potentially dangerous) building. I spent most of yesterday sobbing because I can't believe I left a district I loved so dearly for this shit.

How long are you back before maternity leave starts? Do you think it will be just as bad when you return too?

How long are you back before maternity leave starts? Do you think it will be just as bad when you return too? Not sure on any of it. I'll have my doctors pull me early, I was hoping around the end of October. I'll talk to them as it gets closer. No idea if things will be better or not, it all depends on where I end up. There are some schools in our district where my physical safety would be at risk, so if I end up in any of those buildings it'll change how long I work before the birth and how hard I push to stay out longer after.

I have a hematologist appointment in two hours, and my friend is coming with me since H couldn't take the time offf. I'm dreading getting myself in and out of the building because walking hurts so bad still.

I'm so sorry, cnf. That sucks. Do you have a union? If so, could you get them involved given that you're pregnant to make sure you aren't put in a potentially violent assignment? I was able to make health and safety complaints about an aggressive student when pregnant so that I was never alone, safety plan in place if they got violent, etc. It helped me a lot. If he had escalated, I would have swapped duties with someone for that time.
