quinn is it worth selling the current appliances? At least then you could get new ones and not feel like you were wasting ones that worked.

Good news, everyone. CFA's Avacado Lime Ranch Salad dressing is a nice compliment to their spicy chicken sandwich. No substitute to their discontinued buttermilk ranch obviously, but it will do as a creamy sauce option. Sweet and spicy siracha is also good. I don't know what any of this means... But I'm excited to find out next year lol

misskilljoy I spent so much time in my OB's office waiting room last pregnancy that I would do weekly "weird things I saw at the ob's" updates in the randoms of my BMB. Their wait times aren't crazy, but I frequently had to wait for an ultrasound with the MFM, then wait for my OB, then wait to do a non-stress test. There was one memorable day that I spent 3+ hours there and then got spent to the hospital for monitoring. Ahhh memories. Now I make appointments are early as possible ... just in case. I hope you glared at the dude messing with his junk ... also another trick I learned, always ALWAYS have snacks. This trick also applies to parenting a toddler lol. *mental note to my uterus & unborn child, don't you dare pull that crap this time!*

Got some more answers about work. Pajama time won't happen until 8/31. I'm glad to have two weeks to get everything transitioned over and walk someone through all the stuff I've done to set them up in a positive way.

If I'm mathing correctly, in 2024 I will have a HS freshman and a new kindergartener. That bums me out a little bit.

Actually, 2023-2024. And like 22 years of kids in elementary or high school.
It's fine. It'll be fine. I'll be like the sage school mom mentor or something.

DD was toddlering extra hard today, so I handed over the parenting duties so I could relax. I want alcohol.
If anyone is bored and wants to school me on gifs, Im sure why I can't get it to work. I used to on TCF, is it not the same here? Fwiw I'm on Mobile but open to learning on tapa.

Had the shittest night sleep ever. Went to bed early and feel asleep quickly which is great, woke up at 1:30am to pee, and took bloody ages to fall back to sleep. Couldn't get comfy, and then the heart burn started. And didn't stop. I woke up probably every hour. And had a headache by the time H got up.
So tired and just not in the mood today, so looking forward to nap time in a couple hours.
At least DD is being more wriggly this morning. I deffo think she has moved position as heart burn hasn't kept me up during the night before, and I was feeling slightly sick so my bet was that she was kicking my stomach or something and I can't feel that

DD is staying home today due to some kind of GI bug. Did not plan to spend all day cleaning up diarrhea. Already done that for the last 12 hours. -_- Pray for me. I have a stack of Disney/Pixar movies ready to go, we are zipping out to the store in a bit to get applesauce pouches and bananas, and my couch is covered in towels and blankets.
I swear to god, if I get sick...

I'm counting down the hours to my ob appointment at 1:30 today. I've got an ultrasound first, so I'm really excited to see this LO, and then I'm looking forward to talking to my ob about a referral to the MFM and her thoughts on monitoring me for the remainder of the pregnancy.

I need to rant.
So Monday is my GD test, it's literally first thing in the morning and my mum has to take me because with my fainting episodes, and not being able to eat or drink, it just isn't a good idea me driving for half an hour and then being on my own for 2 hours. Absolutely fine, no problem.
My nan asks me yesterday what time my appointment is on Monday, tell her and she goes -
"I've been asked by my GP to have an x-ray (morning remotely serious, it's a check up) on Monday, how long is your appointment? (Tell her will be there for about 3 hours) hmm right, only because I do need this X-ray"
Have no idea what she was suggesting but I said you are more than welcome to come with me and mum but you will have to wait a while as I cannot rush my appointment.
She then turned around and said if I could change my appointment. I just said no very quickly.... my nan doesn't drive to Plymouth, where the hospital is. So my mum would have to take her, and since my mum was already busy with me she was obviously not happy about it.
Nan - "I do need to have this x-ray"
Me - "yes and I need to have this test. I'm not rebooking it, I've had this booked for literally months, and it needs to be done, I've told you that you can come up with us, it'll just be a wait that's all"
"3 hours is a long time for me"
"And you don't think it is for me? I'm not allowed to eat or drink, I'm 7 months pregnant, and I might end up fainting. You either come or you don't, mum won't be driving up there twice in one week"
The nerve. Fucking deal with it, its 3 hours. And for an hour of that you will be getting an x-ray!!!! I'm tired of her like thinking she's in more desperate need of attention. She HAS to have something wrong with her, and I think it's bugging her that the attention is on me and not her. You are a 70 year old woman please stop acting like you are 18. It's literally like she expected me to drop everything just because she needed this done. If it was something serious that needed an x-ray then sure. But it's not, it's just a check up, of nothing.
I told my mum all of this, and she was actually really annoyed, since she knows how important this GD test is, from me already measuring big, and her actually having diabetes herself. She's going to tell her that you either come Monday, or you wait a week and a bit of so until I need to go back up there (my mums a matron in the same hospital, and is on holiday for 2 weeks)
ALSO, I'm going to get LOADS of little comments in the car in the way up and back, because she isn't allowed to smoke in the car (mum and nan both smoke, but my mum will deal with it nicely as she knows my views) it'll be comments like "guess I'll just wait have half an hour to have a cigarette", shit like that. Yes you fucking will!!!! And I've bet H that she will get a cigarette out and go to light it, and 'claim to forget I was in the car' when I go what the fuck are you doing
That's it, carry on lol, just needed to get that out of my system as I've been mulling over it for 15 hours lol

beefinch, so annoying. It definitely sounds like she's used to being the center of attention and doesn't like that you need your mum's help. Hopefully she doesn't drive you completely crazy on Monday!

FML. My kid has pooped four times in 20 minutes. I swore off clothes for her after the first incident and I'm about to just sit her on the potty in the living room while she watches Frozen because I am very much over changing these diapers.
At least she's cute in her robe.

Sitting at the lab. Went in for my GD test. Man I hate that drink. I have to stay here. I can't drink even water. Baby is already doing somersaults. Lol Perfect thing to do when my kids were both with the grandparents and I had no kids for night and none for most of the day. Lol. Oh well. Priorities.

AnnPerkins if both my sister and I have boys, and you somehow resisted buying this yourself (or did in a different size), I am sending you this (I got 6-9 month). I HAD to buy it just in case. Had to. I bought 3 things totalling $39... I had just received a $40 ebates cash back check. So. FATE.
