I'm eating pop tarts and watching wall-e with the toddler.

I finally brought up all the baby clothes last night and started washing the newborn and 0-3 sizes! I didn't realize how much we actually have. It's a lot.

[AnnPerkins]

There were infinity number of ants covering and inside of my mailbox this morning, so I will be bleaching my entire house just in case, starting with my skin. Nesting starts now.

[bethers]

Today is my first work from home day ... although I have to go in tomorrow already.

Hoping to get through baby clothes tonight - I have the tub out,
Just haven't been feeling up to sorting out what will/won't work. I wish I hadn't just put everything in the tub to save, but I was sentimental about moving into the bigger sizes.

At work, wish I was still in bed with the pups. They all got up when MH left for the airport this morning at 3:30. They went back to sleep but all the interrupted sleep last night sucked. Waiting for the call on my 3 hour GTT, I can't view the results in my portal until 5pm.

At work. I worked the weekend, only 8-3 on sat and 8-12 sun but I wish I would've taken today off. The work week is very daunting to me. I'm hot, uncomfortable, tired, feel like I can't breathe and just don't want to be here.

Tonight we have to take DS for a haircut and then I really want to start organizing the nursery. But I feel like a sloth right now so idk if that'll happen.

[AnnPerkins]

My pelvis feels like I have been doing this for the last 24 hours.



However, I can't even do that on my best non-pregnant day. I could barely get out of bed to pee last night, which is a problem because it's something I do often.

[pootsen]

Anyone else feel like they're running out of room? I can't breathe and lately I feel like I can't eat. Like I'm just not hungry and I even feel kind of nauseated. Which is a bummer for me because pregnant eating is one of my greatest joys lol.

I'll be washing and sorting through baby clothes today. Yesterday we rearranged E's room and set up the crib. I'm starting to feel a little more prepared for this baby.

I don't have the pelvis pain, sorry about that, but I am having issues hoisting myself out of bed lately. I also figure it's only going to get worse...

I hope you keep this image on your phone forever.

All of you washing and sorting baby clothes make me feel way behind. It's on my list to buy some dreft and get the crib ready then probably the clothes. Also, I need to get the "baby supplies" container down out of the attic and start making sure we have all of the needs. I think it's on the back burner since dd's 2nd birthday party is this weekend.

Monday, bleh.

I could barely function the first few periods today. Like I NEEDED to sit and catch my breath a bunch. I thought I might not be able to physically stay upright a couple of times. I'm a mess, but feeling a bit better as the day goes on.

November is so far away still. My goodness.

it feels so far away but so soon at the same time.

I feel very pregnant today. Heartburn isn't relieved by anything, I'm entirely out of breath, waddling, exhaustion, I cried in the middle of Target. No fucking clue why. Just overwhelmed with everything I still have to do I guess.

I'm a mess

[fancy]

Oh quinn, I hope today turns around for you! I've had the hardest time pinning down why I'm feeling the way I am. Generally overwhelmed is a good description.

[thatgolfb]

Hello! I'm off today, because working Saturday (my last one!). I slept much better then the previous night. And waking up to an empty house was devine.

I am heading out shortly to the mall. It has been forever since I have been to the mall by myself. I am going to Sephora and then to see Home Again. For free, because gift cards! I need some delicious artificial butter popcorn for lunch.

Me! I can't eat dinner at the same time as my family for some reason- I'm not hungry then nor can I tolerate sitting in a chair at the table. I eat/snack after the kids go to bed.

[paperbagliz]

I'm sorry, quinn. We should all just be allowed to put our feet up and watch trash tv until the babies get here.

I don't know if I ever posted here, but I had a really good talk with my boss on Friday. She asked if I wanted to keep being the go to software person, because she knows it isn't the easiest job. I said yes, and she said it was a relief and she was happy because I have surpassed their expectations. That made me feel really good! it will be a hard project to cover while I am on ML. I had volunteered to work remotely when possible on ML, but she said they would rather I come in, if only for a couple hours here and there. I said I would do that as long as legally I could do it while on disability. And I did say that it would be impossible for the few weeks after baby is born. She seemed totally fine with that. But while I am on unpaid baby bonding time, I can definitely do it whenever H can plan to be home for a few hours, and as long as I'm able to pump by then.

So yay!

[quinn]

That's great thatgolfb!

I told DH that I don't have room for food anymore. Like I eat and I poop within 30 minutes (normal consistency, not loose or anything). I have no idea how I am going to get bigger. I've grown out of my maternity clothes and I'm super hesitant to buy more just for a few weeks. 

[thatgolfb]

Lol I just remembered that I had a dream that quinn and I went mini golfing. I can't recall if we were pregnant or not.

[bazi]

thatgolfb they are going to pay you for your time right?

Ugh I'm sorry. I hope it turns around for you.

I am having to find last minute childcare for both my little ones. I am livid. It is a long long story and may involve lawyers. Pdq.
It really sucks because they will be near our house vs my work. I used to nurse at lunch vs pump.

[roloma]

quinn, sympathy for being a mess. We went to a different grocery store yesterday and I was so overwhelmed that I started crying. I didn't know where things were, couldn't find things, and generally walked all around the store. It was too much. I'm pretty sure my H thought I was losing it.

In addition to crying for no reason all of the time, my vagina feels like someone kicked it repeatedly. Come on pelvic floor, we are a team here. Work with me.

I forgot how awful the last few weeks can be. I never made it past 34w so if I do this time, I am surely going to be a disaster. 34 was bad enough.

[doxiemama]

I feel like I say this every week, but I am so tired of the surprised looks I get when people hear my due date. "Yes, I'm huge" is my standard response. No one is really rude about it, it's just wearing me down.
