RunsforWineandCarbs - as far as pillows go, I would suggest NOT getting the MyPillow ... Bit the bullet and paid the money on those and I haven't liked them since day one. Peekaru - Feel better 😘 Betweenthelines - Those pictures are beyond fabulous. I haven't even thought about our Christmas card pictures yet... mrspiatt 's having a babyyyyyyyyy 🙌🙌🙌🙌

taketheshot, those snowmen are adorable! Are you going under or using gas for surgery? I went under. It's super easy this way - you don't remember a thing. I counted back, got to like 8 from 10 and then the nurse was telling me to sit up. I don't remember it taking too long to heal either. Best of luck! Don't freak yourself out, this is a common everyday surgery. You will do great!

My neck hurts again. It has got to be my pillows. I need to invest some money into good quality pillows. At work for 2 days than I have my certified playground inspector class Wed thru Friday. Good times. I just bought a Coop pillow because my neck was bothering me. I has adjustable memory foam pieces. Jury is out because it is brand new, but I can keep you posted.

taketheshot- those snowmen are absolutely adorable! RunsforWineandCarbs- we just bought new pillows last week because H was waking up in pain. So far he’s sleeping better and his neck and shoulders haven’t been bothering him as much. Sleep Restoration Gel Pillow - (2 Pack Queen) Best Hotel Quality Comfortable & Plush Cooling Gel Fiber Filled Pillow - Dust Mite Resistant www.amazon.com/dp/B01HC4FEZM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_xKSsxPx15x64gPeekaru- yep, this time tomorrow I’ll be getting brand new baby snuggles and likely be high on morphine or whatever drug they pump into my IV.

I'm on here today because I had to call out of work. We moved into our house over the weekend. The Carbon Monoxide detector went off at 2am this morning, so we left and stayed in a hotel. I didn't notice the baby moving after we left and I freaked out. Baby is moving now. I'm only 21 weeks tomorrow so the movement is still intermittent. The repair person is looking at the system now. I'm hoping for an easy fix.
This is what I get for buying a house built in 1924. I'm glad we installed smoke and carbon monoxide detectors before we moved in because the previous owner had none!

Oh no! I hope it’s nothing and just a quick fix. Glad you’re feeling the baby moving. It’s always so stressful at that stage. Congrats on moving into your new place!

So apparently the iron isn't covered and is $122 which is insane. The doc told me to call insurance to ask for an alternative that is covered. I did and nothing is I tried 3 types of otc iron last pregnancy and always puked. Ugh. I hate this.

God I'm just horrified. Thank you for the vote of confidence.

It's like $20 here in Canada so I would assume cheaper there?

Fun fact of the day MyPillow main offices are about a mile from my house. The ceo/owner was handing out mini pillows on a parade. We left them in the street. Lol taketheshot love the sock snowfriends. Good luck on Friday! I went under for mine when I was 17. You can do it! shellyr how scary!

I’m trying not to get anxious but I got an email that s1 didn’t eat lunch again. I just can’t take this anymore. He never wants to eat. Ever. And I know his meds can suppress his appetite but I don’t think that’s happening here. He went from not being picky at all to eating so little each day and being extremely picky. Today he told his spec ed teacher he was afraid of puking.

Today is my 7th wedding anniversary We are going out to dinner, but honestly I have not planned much of anything else. I'm going to say that 7 year is the year of lighting, because I had my appointment to pick out the lights for the new house this morning....and went tad over budget....So I hope DH likes lights I'm also off today because M's DC is closed for remembrance Day (which was Saturday, but they get their stat today). M and I are about to head out to get groceries. That's about all I've got. lol mrspiatt, GL with baby day tomorrow. Will your DS also be coming out to meet the new baby? Peekaru, FX you feel better for your surgery. The amount of coordinating and planning that goes into that is just a PITA, so hopefully it all works out. Speaking of surgeries, CestLaVie, how has your recovery gone? taketheshot, those snowmen are adorable Great job! Betweenthelines, those pics are super sweet! I need to get family pictures done again...it's been almost 2 years.... shellyr sorry for the complications with the move so far! FX for a quick fix. jedi, hopefully you can arrange your visit for your MIL soon.

redandblue, really, really well. The first week was rough but I am really impressed with how I have healed compared to what I thought and have heard. Well, well well worth it. I have had 1 headache since Aug 29th. I used to get migraines 2-3x per week. I am really impressed with that, I really didn't believe it would be as different as it has been.

Pregnancy rage is hitting and I'm irritated at everyone. At work, at my dr office, DH even DS.

redandblue- he’ll probably come out during Christmas break. I could have possibly made it work over Thanksgiving, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable having him here with the new baby and A while I’m recovering from a cesarean. I really worry about having him around A and I may not even let him stay here during Christmas- I’d have him stay at my mom’s which is about 30 minutes from here. Since March I’ve learned some stuff about him and I think I’ve figured out what was happening when A would start screaming and other things. I’m still processing and trying to figure how to navigate through some very unpleasant things.

Poor J just throw up. I don't know if he's getting sick or if he just gagged on the cookie in his mouth. He spit his food out twice yesterday which is very weird for him but I don't know if they are related. He also pooped 5 times today but he hadn't gone in two days so I figured it was just catching up.

Only getting to go puke or use the bathroom. He was also extremely pale. Hopefully it’s nothing.

My freaking washer just stopped working... 1/2 way through a load of laundry... ummm this is seriously the worst timing ever... it’s part way fill with water and the clothes are soaking wet... I’ll be gone for 3-4 days in the hospital. I’m taking the clothes with me to DD1’s (it’s a load of A’s laundry) and I’ll have her do it, but there will be water sitting in the washer and that’s going to be gross. It’s not very old either- less than 3 years. I’m trying to figure out if we purchased an extended warranty or not, but BestBuy isn’t being very helpful.

flippinchica, I took Floradix after C was born. I was borderline needing a transfusion. It tasted gross to me but it worked without the stomach upset. Good luck!

And he's drinking a lot of water and his milk. Ugh, I hate having to make the decision between sending him to daycare or missing work.

And now I feel vaguely yucky and nauseated. I hope it isn't the floradix. I don't know what other options are left.
