Happy Monday! Let’s start a fresh round of random thoughts.
This is for relatively unimportant things, and things not requiring a lot of follow-up. PLEASE start new threads for specific questions or issues or thoughts!

I have my anatomy scan in an hour and a half. I'm nervous something is wrong since I'm still not feeling her move and I'm also nervous it's going to end up being a him instead of a her!
I can't wait to get it over with.

I'm not ready for it to be Monday morning. Where in the world did the weekend go? We had Chinese take-out last night for dinner and I'm sad to say that it didn't taste as good as I was hoping. I couldn't even finish it. I hope this isn't something that will last my whole pregnancy, because I love Chinese food. #pregnantladyFWP

Mh’s up north working for at least 5 days, it’ll probably turn into a longer stretch. He rented a cool cottage for the week at a great rate which is cool though. I’m chilling with DS today and tomorrow and then have a bunch of running around to do the rest of the week. Feeling bleh with the time change.

GL today cornpop! I'm crabby today. Didn't sleep great last night, in part because of DH's snoring, and today I'm dreading a meeting that is scheduled for tonight. I'm an elected official in my town and we are holding a vote on an issue that is very contentious and also happens to be right in line with my professional work. So I have a lot to say about it, and I know its important to speak up, but I am not particularly adversarial and get kind of anxious about situations like these.

Both my kids have sized up a full size shoe in the last month. What?! That is the worst! I hate buying kid shoes so much. My toddler needs a new pair of simple dress shoes and I'm dragging my feet because I can't find simple black toddler dress shoes at our normal places for less than like $25. I don't even spend that on my shoes, damn it.

I placed an amazon order & a target order this morning and I'm about 75% done Christmas shopping now. Mostly still on my list is stocking stuffers and a few more little things for under the tree for both kids.

I woke up this morning with a sore throat. DD finished her antibiotics over the weekend, but she still has has a cough. I think today may end up being a cuddle on the couch, watching movies type of day.

Thank you!! I feel like this birthday sort of snuck up on me - everything is about DS, haha. DH very sweetly got me a gift certificate for a prenatal massage that I'll probably wait till third tri to use, along with a game he knew I wanted. Baby's birthday gift is lots and lots of movement, including some I can feel from the outside!! I'm soaking it all up, I love it.

I am miserable today. Had a good weekend, came in to work and there are a bunch of problems. Ugh. I hate working so much. At least it's a short week.
Dunno if everyone saw my A/S update on the other randoms thread (or wherever it was), but it went well! Still couldn't get all the measurements after 50ish minutes of looking because my kid is a punk (surprising no one), so we go back December 1st to try again! It would have been earlier, but that was their first availability. With what we did see (most of the important stuff--femur, spine, neck, heart), the MFM cut our already low-risk of genetic issues in half, so we're classified on that front as very low-risk now!

Happy birthday katietopaz. Thanks for all of the good thoughts! It is definitely a girl! She really barely moved at all so my concerns aren't entirely relieved but the ultrasound tech said everything looked okay so I'm going to just assume I'm being crazy.

I hate sleeping on my side. My hip starts to hurt after a while so I end up tossing and turning most of the night.
