Totally accidentally fell asleep this afternoon. DH woke me up when he got home from work. Oops. Thankfully we were having leftovers for supper. And DS was still napping.

Hās coworker finally returned my Leachco pillow, Iām so glad to have it back!
I wonāt be able to use it for a few days, though, because in his efforts to be sweet and helpful, H put the whole enormous pillow in the washing machine instead of just the cover.

Does anyone have any tips for RLP? I don't remember having it with DS, but starting yesterday afternoon and into today and I can't even take a step with my right foot without feeling like I'm being stabbed in the hip. I just want to go home and lay down.
Everything I've read just says to relax, stretch, warm bath, etc. All doable if I was at home and/or had anyone at all to help with stuff at home.

**TW - Pet sickness**
DH had to take our cat to the vet because we were worried about him getting dehydrated with the number of times he's been throwing up/having diarrhea lately and they found a quarter size spot on his kidney. We're sending the x-ray to the radiologist to figure out what's going on. DH is worried it could be cancer. This is so hard...he's my baby. DH is worried too and voices his opinion all the time that he dislikes the cat (it's mutual) and that if I wasn't as attached to him, we'd get rid of him. At least he's staying at the vet this weekend while we are out of town so if anything happens, a doctor is right there, so I know he's in the best place for him this weekend.

Iām really annoyed with one of my coworkers. She and I work closely together, and I often share things with her that I donāt tell others about. I told her that I was pregnant in confidence, and made it very clear that I wasnāt telling anyone else yet.
Well, one of the other teachers comes into my room today, and says āoh I hear congratulations are in orderā. I asked her what she was talking about, and she said oh āso-and-so told me that you were pregnant.ā I told her thank you, but that was not supposed to be information that was shared, and that it was too early to tell everyone at school. I donāt trust this person not to tell other people, and Iām really frustrated with my coworker.
Iām super bad at confrontation though, so I havenāt said anything to her about it.

I'm so angry with my pediatrician. We got new insurance and I asked the office to run it before we went in to see the doctor and they said they were in network. Turns out they're not and I just got slapped with a $$$ bill.

Weāre house hunting; it sucks. We actually have a decent budget and could stay in this house another couple years if we had to, so it shouldnāt be that stressful, but it still is.

Hoping it is not too serious for your cat kookie3631! Maybe a stone they can remove?

Update on my cat (tw: pet death):
Kitty has kidney disease. We don't know if it's stage 3 or 4, but he basically has a few months left. šWe don't have the 2-3k to find out which stage it is, so the vet told us to bring him home (he's at the vets this weekend while we are out of town), change his diet, and enjoy the time we have left. This is so fucking hard. DH got him for me when we had been dating for 2 years so I've had him for 9 years. How do I explain this to DD when he's gone? She loves him.

budders I would be so mad at my coworker if she did that. I don't know what it is but some people just love the attention of sharing big news. I would say something because the older I get, the less filter I have. (Plus pregnancy hormones.)

I would say something because the older I get, the less filter I have. (Plus pregnancy hormones.) I did decide to say something to her yesterday. She apologized and said she thought I said I was telling people. I donāt believe her, but I just asked her not to tell anyone else. I wonāt be telling her anything in the future.

My parents had the sweetest cat in the world who passed away from kidney disease. Can you ask about IV fluids? It was a pretty cheap easy treatment for them that definitely increased his quality of life in the last few months.

But she told someone. When I found out, I confronted her. Which actually is not my usual style. I blame the pregnancy hormones.

kookie3631 So sorry about your kitty. We are going through something similar with our pup and are in waiting mode now to find out if they can even do a biopsy or anything due to location and it's soooo hard. Lots of positive vibes to you.

So no ultrasound on Thursday after all. Apparently it's common for a monitoring clinic to not do an ultrasound because then they are treating me and assuming liability. Much upset and a few strong words were said to the clinic when I got that call. So currently I have an ultrasound next Monday through my OB.

armpants, that's silly that they don't do ultrasounds. I've also been waiting for your appointment because I want to know if both embryos worked. I haven't said so yet but I love what you're doing for that family. It's so amazing.

I just got my lovenox injections tonight and took my first one. Putting the needle in wasn't bad but as soon as I started pushing the plunger it started burning bad. Ugh, not looking forward to another 31 weeks of this

I got my blood test results from last week and my vitamin D is really low. They called in a Rx for me to start taking. Also, my TSH is apparently boderline, so I'm starting on medicine for that too.

At this point I'd try just about anything to have a take home baby

Someone from my last BMB is pregnant with twins, not quite 28 weeks along. She went into labor tonight. They haven't been able to slow the contractions.
