Hugs nam2013 and peachsmama . That’s tough. I️ hit the gym this morning and now I’m at rylands four year well check. I️ have my three hour glucose test on Friday and I’m so irritated by the whole thing. Even though I expected this since I always fail the one hour it’s annoying since I don’t have any of the risk factors except being over 25. I’m trying to switch to a high protein low carb/sugar diet this week in case I️ do fail, and I’m hangry a few hours in. My friend who's in GYN said that this can actually help. If you eat well leading up to the test, you are less likely to fail, esp if you are borderline. If you eat like crap leading up to it, are are borderline, it will "push" you over the edge So hopefully you are saving yourself from failing!

More intel learned this morning.
Our CEO is not on 'vacation' as the company calendar states. He is in Minnesota, which is where the company is located that will close us pretty quickly. He also has our receptionist scheduling outings, I saw one for Top Golf on her desktop. Which means he's going to schmooze certain people so they will hopefully stay on. Which is ridiculous to me. Just be honest, and quit spending money on stupid shit. You want people to stay til the end, then pay us. Otherwise, I'm getting off the sinking ship as soon as possible.

I wish they could just tell everybody, mwhip. It's the worst when there's uncertainty.

I'm failing at this whole birthday gift thing. First I ordered him a remote control monster truck, but he got the same one from a friend. Then I ordered him a set of 4 transformers, but then I realized I just got figurines, they don't transform. So MH is at Target during his lunch picking something out for him. I ordered T a fingerling in September. I was suppose to be here by Nov. 3. Now it says the 9th.

My h went to the concert with his mum. I didn’t feel like it and I knew how how much he was looking forward to it and i would feel even worse if he’d miss it too. It took an hour and half to get dd to sleep, this day can stick it.

Amazes people that she can go 9 months without saying a word. Obviously if you see her in person you know, but otherwise, nada. I didn't do it with either baby. With my first, I think someone posted on my wall asking how I was feeling, and it sort of outed me. Then there were some pictures posted of me during that time that made it very obvious. And pictures from my shower. With my second, we were at a friend's son's 1st communion and another friend who had just gotten engaged posted something about all the people together with all the blessings, etc, and said I was pregnant with my second.

I had N's preschool conferences today. I'm so proud of her. The one area where I worry about is her social/emotional development. The teacher had zero concerns and said N is actually a leader in the classroom. She's at more of a kindergarten level than 3yo preschool on a lot of skills. Who's kid is this??

I posted a family picture a couple weeks ago and the early pregnancy bloat is kinda strong so I'm sure people suspected when they saw it.

I'm generally not that insecure about my looks but I am really not photogenic so pictures are universally terrible. It's true.
