maddisonrose your DS is under 2 right? Dylan started climbing out of her crib at 23 months so we had to transition her. We are still having issues with keeping her in her own room and she ends up with us most nights. We are going out of town for a week so when we get back I'm going to finally toddler proof her room and probably put up a baby gate and see if that helps.

We've been putting this transition off because A) he has always been such a good sleeper in his crib. 12 hours a night (but does not nap during the day And B) because he is a complete orangutang and given the opportunity would keep going and playing all night long. So the crib cage worked at forcing him to stop and sleep. Without being caged in I'm terrified he will just see it as an opportunity to keep the party going and hang out with mom and dad more. So we will see which way he decides to go come this Friday!

I am off work today so I'm having a fun day with DS. We went to toddler time at a gym and then Chick-fil-A. He insisted I help him climb in the tunnels with him at the play place so that was fun with my big belly.

maddisonrose If it helps to give you hope, we transitioned DD (just turned 2) a couple weeks ago and haven't had any issues. Well, the very first night she kept waking up and I'd find her standing in different spots in her room in the dark (creepy), but since then she just stays in her bed and calls for me in the morning. Plus she's very proud of her "big girl bed" and loves that she can climb in by herself. Good luck! Hope it goes smoothly for you.

We are needing to transition DS to his toddler bed, maybe this weekend. I'm also dreading it. We are having such separation issues during nap right now, there's no way he will stay in his bed without me. Oy.

We transitioned DS around 2.5, and he did well. He was in a sleepsac until 3.5 though (they sell the loose ones with feet holes up to a 5T on the website!). It was like he thought he couldn't walk with it on, lol. Right now I'm getting my hair done, and I just finished a dish of fries with chimichuri aioli. When I get home I get the fun job of figuring out of if we can replace my car now or if we will have to tough it out for 2 months. Stupid timing chain

sparky85 I've never had fries with chimichurri aioli, but now I really want patatas bravas with aioli. So, thanks. 😉

snowyowl, love the dress! I am not typically a sweets person at all but have a major sweet tooth when pregnant. +1... I've bought myself two birthday cakes so far this pregnancy. Just to eat in my spare time. Because that's normal. We went to a restaurant for dinner that was geared toward kids but had super good food! DS had a blast, and it was nice to be at a restaurant with him while still being able to relax. Usually I'm just trying to stop him from being a hooligan when we go out 😉 We're also going to transition to a big kid bed soon, just waiting for the furniture to be delivered! All of the stories are really reassuring!! Here's my 21 week bump!

My OB appointment today went well. I was still super nervous going in even though I'm 16+ weeks and every appointment so far has gone well. I wonder if that will go away at some point? Maybe when I feel consistent movement... who knows! I did send an email out after my appointment to announce to my staff (I only manage 3 people - so not a huge company wide announcement). I think I drafted that thing about 50 times before hitting send, haha. ETA: Also, I love ALL the bump pics

tiffrobot I'm so sorry for your loss. Prayers for you, the family, and your community. maddisonrose We just transitioned DS about two weeks ago to his toddler bed, which is just his crib without the tall front rail and the addition of a short mesh rail that he can walk around. We did end up turning around his doorknob so it locks from the outside. I was nervous that he would freak out about being locked in, but he really doesn't mind. When he wakes up, he just goes and knocks on the door for us to let him out. The first week he was taking super short naps and waking up really early, but he caught on quickly and has been sleeping well this week...until this horrible ear infection. I should add that DS is a complete maniac who loves to run and jump off of everything, so I was very nervous about the transition. But it's turned out way better than I expected. Good luck! So the doctor told me what I already knew. DS has a double ear infection and when we got to the doctor, his temperature was 104.1. He wouldn't let me give him any Motrin, but he let the nurse. Probably because she also gave him a pop sickle. We were able to get two doses of antibiotics in today, so hopefully he'll feel better soon. Fingers crossed that he gets some good sleep tonight. If not, I already have a dose of Tylenol and a dose of Motrin measured out.

No bump picture but I definitely grew and I feel huge.
I've had a lot going on since I've been back to work this week. I had to email my obs office today because I'm questioning if I have a UTI. I don't have any burning that you would typically get but I'm peeing like every 20-30 minutes which I think is a lot even for a pregnant woman at 17 weeks. So I'm waiting to hear what they want me to do.

rebeccabunch I'm late, but will echo what you were told. I have a cerclage this pregnancy due to cervical insufficiency/preterm labor in my past 2 pregnancies. Anything over 3 cm is considered completely normal at this point. Between 3.0 and 2.5, you would get biweekly cervical length checks up until 24 weeks. If you fell below either 2.5 or 2.0 depending on the MFM, you would have a rescue cerclage (stitch in the cervix) placed. After 24 weeks, the risk of breaking your water when placing the cerclage is too high, so most doctors don't even measure after that point. So in summary, both of your measurements were completely normal and not a cause for concern. Mine was 3.69 this past Friday at 19w4d.

We moved each of our kids to twin beds before they were 2. DS was around 21? months and DD 19. It's just what worked better for them, I was nervous too but I'm glad we did! Hope everyone doing a transition soon has good luck!

It's 2:20am and I am up. I woke up about 20 minutes ago and I can't sleep now. I think I am hungry and baby boy is tap dancing or something in there. I am trying to decide if it's worth going downstairs to get a piece of fruit or something.

I went and ate an apple. Baby boy is still moving like crazy. I just want more sleep. MH just got up for work so I am hoping to pass out soon. I hope you get some rest. Insomnia sucks.

I have a headache driving me nuts, probably from eating half a pint of Ben and Jerry's before going to bed. Whoops. Hope you get some sleep!
