I hope the ladies who had issues sleeping last night are sleeping in! Lol my 4 year old was standing over me at 6:15. No rest for the weary! But I have house cleaners at my place so we're hiding at my moms. My parents are watching the girls, I'm walking on their treadmill and watching Fixer Upper. AND my house will be clean when I go home. Winning!

I slept like crap last night. I had a nightmare that a former pastor (dear friend of the family, he performed our wedding ceremony and co-officiated Ava's memorial service) was very sick and was going to die and wouldn't talk to me or look me in the eye. I was crying so hard in my dream that I woke up gasping for air. I was awake for awhile after that, then continued having weird/bad dreams until my alarm went off. Our A/S was yesterday and Faith looks perfect! Growing right on track, all organs where they should be and they estimate she weighs 12 ounces. It is such a relief to know that we will be bringing home a baby this time around, but also terrifying that we need to take some classes so we know what the heck we are doing. I missed bump pictures yesterday, but here is the picture we took after getting home from the appointment and then stopping to pick up a few baby toys (DH's idea which I thought was super sweet and adorable) to celebrate.

It must be a full moon or something, my 18 month old was up alllll night. It is either teeth or an ear infection, but we hit the road today, so if we have another rough night we will just look for a minute clinic or urgent care at our destination. Ugh. Send coffee.

I did not get that much more sleep last night. I fell back to sleep around 5:30 and was up at 6:40. Thankfully the bus picked G up and I took a little nap while she was gone. I am not waiting for the bus to drop her off. I had a weird dream that I went to a Benjamin Moore store to get one gallon of paint and it was $249. I tried all of my credit cards and they were maxed out (they are not in real life so wtf to making my dream weirder brain) so I had to leave the paint behind with the color I wanted. I have no idea what that was all about.

I posted this in my 3am post last night but oh my goodness is baby boy active. Holy cow, he moved for hours last night. He was part of the reason that I couldn't sleep. He is actually still moving quite a bit today. I enjoy feeling the movement but he never lets up. Lol

Baby boy has gained a full pound since our last scan. The tech was able to get one of the two missing images of his heart, maybe that will be enough. Seeing how happy MIL to be there for that made me so happy.

How hard are the solly wraps to use? I have an ergo 360 from DS, but didn't use it a ton. I figure I'm going to need a carrier more this time around, but the wraps scare me a little.

Hi! Sorry to all the sick babes. I'm also taking DD in this afternoon, she's just had a little cold for a long time with a lot of congestion and after a couple especially rough nights now she seems so uncomfortable and in pain and out of sorts today. I even ended up giving her DS's inhaler because she started wheezing which is very unlike her. Poor kiddo.
Otherwise, just getting through some clothes for DS today and laundry and some new winter mat/nursing clothes that came in the mail yesterday so yay!

Do you have one already? What made you choose it? I don't but a ton of my girlfriends love theirs. I've heard it's thinner/more breathable than other wraps which is good bc we live in hot hot hot. I didn't wrap with DD & only had the tula so couldn't wear her until later. I think I will need to wear this one from day 1 so I'm excited! I ended up getting the grey stripe.

I am really tempted to get a Solly wrap but am nervous about knowing how to do it.
We just found out that we are getting a foster dog tomorrow! We have been on the foster parent list for about a year but this will be our first dog! Hopefully our other dogs cooperate.

Good for you that you signed up!

Maybe a little more complex lol. It doesn't seem too hard, and with the amount of babywearing I'm sure to do with this one, I'll get the hang of it pretty quickly and will probably be able to do it blindfolded soon enough

Also my friends make it look so easy so it seems like I should be able to pick it up pretty easy?

Does anyone else who has suffered a loss feel weird when someone asks whay pregnancy this is? My ultrasound tech did today and I know that's the right way for her to ask, I felt weird saying "third pregnancy, second baby". I feel like answering in that way I'm saying the first one wasn't a baby. I'm obviously way over thinking this.

jessijean, you could also say 3rd pregnancy, one live birth or something like that....whatever you find that you feel comfortable with. I think I usually say "5th pregnancy, we have one child."
