My boobs and chest have been super itchy today. You know what's not a good look in public? Itching your boobs. I did a lot of "bra adjusting" just to get a little bit of relief. Oh man. It's bad enough just scratching your belly (I feel so ridiculous every time). I'm so sorry your boobs are betraying you now.

Every night I look at H and ask "what are you thinking for dinner?" Seriously, I eat at such odd times, trying to keep up with smaller meals all day, that by the time dinner rolls around I am between meals and not hungry. Maybe part of my nesting needs to be creating freezer meals.

Was somebody else in here looking for a video monitor? I can't remember. I got a good deal today on the infant optics from BRU. It's on sale and then there's an additional 25% off with code SOUND25. It only has one camera but I figure I'll pick up the additional camera from amazon when I use my registry completion discount. Perfect, I was looking and that is where I have a gift card! Thank you!

Sorry for all the itchiness and pooping problems ladies!! A sentence I never thought I'd say 😂 I'm actually doing good these last couple of days. Not sure if baby switched positions or what but I haven't had any pelvic pressure or braxton hicks, both of which I've had a lot of since like 15 weeks on. It's a pleasant change that I'm trying not to take advantage of cuz who knows how long its gonna last. Some of you are getting so close!! I'm at the end of November so I'm a little behind a lot of you. But it's coming soooo fast guys 😱😱

Comments I received on my belly today, ordered from most to least ok:
Woman sitting next to me on the subway: " you look beautiful."
Daycare teacher who I don't really know: "you don't even look pregnant from the back, but your belly is so big!"
Neighbor: "when are you due? Oh, you look like you're due any day now! I hope you go early!"
Head of my department at work, while in the elevator: "you look very pregnant. When are you due? Oh! He's going to be a bruiser."

doxiemama yikes to all of those. Except the subway lady. Who would've thought that a stranger on the subway would be the sweetest? One of the doctors I work with has been pretty awful- I honestly think she's just trying to be funny so I'm trying not to be offended but the other day she saw me walking down the hallway and she literally puffed out her cheeks and mock-waddled toward me. Then on Friday last week she asked how far along I was and I told her 32 weeks. She said "wow I can't believe it! Well, I mean you definitely LOOK like you're 32 weeks, but I just can't believe how fast the time has gone!"

Everyone ready for another edition of Weird Interactions With That Kid?
Grade 2 boy comes up to me on the yard. "Is your baby out yet?"
"It's still not Halloween, buddy. So no."
He puts his hand on my belly. "I think it feels like a girl. Or maybe a boy."
"Well, I hope it's one of those!"
He presses his ear to my belly button. "I can't hear the baby crying."
"No, babies only cry after they're born."
"Oh. Sometimes they're covered in blood when they're born too."
"...yes, I guess sometimes they are."
"I was. You know, I'm going to be the baby's grandpa when it's born."
The bell rings.
"Okay, see you later!" he calls as he wanders off toward the door.

I'm sorry for all the rude people you all encounter. I really haven't had anyone say anything to me. Other than a few people I know who comment on how I don't look like I should be this far along already. But strangers- nope. Nothing. Which I'm thankful for. I

grumpycat, I bite my tongue and then laugh later at the absurdity. I made the office admin crack up as I was telling the principal about this and another issue with a kid hitting other kids because when I asked one of the boys about it, he just shrugged and said, "Yeah. He's been punching a bunch of us in the balls." like it was nothing. NOTHING. Never in a million years would I have said balls to a teacher. XD

I downloaded a thermostat app on my phone. It claims my room is 88F at 6:50am. It's likely not super accurate, but honestly, I'm sure it's not too far off. My room already feels like death. Two more days of this weather. I think I can, I think I can.

I've been awake off and on, mostly on, since 1:30 feeling itchy and uncomfortable. I still don't have to be up for another 1.5 hours, but lol to falling back asleep at this point. Today should be a hoot.

Dropped my parents off to the train station (catching that to the air port) and I'm sad that I'm not going to see them for 15 days.
Actually I'm more sad for DS as he doesn't understand that Nanny and Grandad WILL be back but not yet for 2 weeks... 15 days sounds better than 2 weeks.
I've got a good 2/3 days until he starts asking for them.
For a 25 year old married woman with nearly 2 kids I'm very attached to my mum 😂😂 we've become a lot closer after having DS, and we normally spend 2 or 3 days a week together. We see her every 2/3 days, depending on her work shifts. I've told them they aren't allowed to go on a 2 week holiday again as it's to long for me lol.
Just going to be a boring and uneventful (well it better be DD, you stay put for 2.5 weeks yet please) 2 weeks as both my BFF's are working over these weeks also. Was going to spend the morning with my BFF tomorrow but now I have to do the GTT test.
Of which - my morning reading (before breakfast) was 4.3. Hour after breakfast was 8.3... great. (The max they like it to be is 7.8 in case you guys read it in a different way)
And I felt so weak and drained at 11:30am. I've ordered some bananas/apples to have as a morning snack at 11am. Was going to do grapes but they have a lot of natural sugars I've read.
Half an hour until my lunch time reading... ugh

beefinch I'm very close with my mom too. My parents are infatuated with DS. They watch him on Mondays/Fridays but we frequently get together on my day off and weekends too. We only live like a mile away so we see them all the time and my mom and I talk every day otherwise. Hopefully the 15 days go by fast for you and your DS!

The cleaning woman is here for the morning, and I feel so awkward! I've never done this before. The dog and I are hanging out in my room while she works, but my fierce 12 pound chiweenie just wants to go protect her house.

Anyone else having issues with tags? If someone tags me to a post and I click on the notification it used to take me right to post where I was tagged. Now it just brings me to the beginning of the thread and I have to try and find where I was tagged.

I was dead asleep when my alarm went off to get up for my doc appt. my sleep is so bad, this makes me sad that I'm missing out on some actual sleep. Had a dream that baby is a girl. First one that I remember that was so specific about that. Well, we will find out in approximately 4 to 6 weeks.

Sorry you're dealing with it.

Maybe part of my nesting needs to be creating freezer meals. I am never hungry for dinner - I don't know if it's because I'm so exhausted at that time or whatever but I'm never ever hungry. H gets so bent out of shape when I refuse to eat that I feel like I'm forcing myself to eat every night.

I can't breath. Baby must be sitting right on my lungs. I'm dizzy from the lack of oxygen.
Ds3 has a dentist appointment this morning.

Usually I'll hang out for a few minutes and then eat after the kids go to bed.

Even DS keeps telling me to eat my supper.

The dog and I are hanging out in my room while she works, but my fierce 12 pound chiweenie just wants to go protect her house. Been there! With DS1, I tried to stay while she cleaned, but felt so uncomfortable that I wasn't helping her that I started planning outings. I became a "mall walker" (since it was winter). I'm going to have the same issues now that I'm working from home, so I'm planning on working from Starbucks until she is gone. She is the nicest woman, but I just feel too guilty (and in the way) to stay.
