I had my Echo today and the rest of my anatomy scan they couldn’t get last time. Everything looks good. Even the hypospadius they thought they saw last time and the spine hungry they thought they saw - were all gone. Everything looks great and baby is growing right on track. The heart report will go to my dr so hopefully it’s more good news. But huge huge sigh of relief again. Beautiful news! Do you know when you're expecting more news from the doctor re:heart images?

Hopefully at my appt on Weds morning. The heart Dr wasn’t on site today.

I had this whole plan in my head - my husband was gone hunting for 6 days last week, followed by Thanksgiving crap. I haven’t been alone in a long time. So I was going to go to my midwife appt tomorrow and then take the rest of the day to do errands and REST.
But despite thinking this in my head, I actually texted my boss, and we have a lot to do. Womp womp. Maybe next week.

Holy cow, y'all, the nesting is REAL. Today I went through every bin and tote in DS's room and closet, reorganized everything, and made huge donate and trash piles. Did the same for under our sink/bathroom drawers and started on a couple of kitchen cabinets.
I don't get the nesting urge often but when I do, I take fulllll advantage, apparently. It helps that DS has in-home ABA therapy three days a week - I have to be home, but the therapist works solo with DS, so that's a nice chunk of time to do whatever I want around home.

leatherpants that’s awesome news! Glad it went well. I’m struggling with sciatic nerve pain. Sitting down is the worst for it which is very cruel as sitting down is very necessary, especially after a long day at work. Im also about the size now at 23 weeks that I was at 32 weeks with DS1. I’m worried about how big I’ll be by 30+ weeks...

This is going to be the longest week ever! But I do have an appointment on Wednesday, which I'm looking forward to. Thanksgiving with FIL and his miserable wife was about as unpleasant as anticipated. The first thing she said to me when she walked in was "Ugh. You look tired" and it just went downhill from there (I wasn't nice--I just said "Yeah well being almost 6 months pregnant and preparing an entire Thanksgiving meal will do that to a person"). I was so happy when they left the next day. But my food all came out good and despite what she seemed to think, I felt pretty good throughout the day and didn't hit a wall like I was afraid I would. Ugh. What a bitch. Thank you! I need the commiseration. LOL

I got an email from Natera today asking for feedback on their lab. I kindly told them that I felt it was ridiculous they couldn't complete the test after they were informed of the vanishing twin, especially because they've marketed themselves as the only lab who can separate twin fetal DNA.
I doubt anything will come of this - but they still charged my insurance the full amount even though they stopped after initial chromosome count.

It's Tuesday. I'm once again dreading the yoga class I signed up for before I realized I was pregnant. I just want to lay down, not twist myself all up. My core is destroyed. I can barely keep up.

Today is DS's 4th birthday. All he wanted to do is stay home. I wish I could've taken the day off and stayed home with him.

Ahh. I had my midwife appointment.
It was so good. I like my midwife so, so, so much. She asked all about the names we're considering, and then we talked about my previous labors and thoughts and then I recommended The Birth Hour podcast to her, and it was just like a fantastic thirty minute chat with a friend. So, SO great.
I have to do another three hour glucose test before my dec 19th appt, but meh. Whatever. Oh well!
I got my TDAP.

I called the pedi for DD this morning. She hasn't kept food down since yesterday and now she feels like she has a fever. They must be busy today...first time I called the automated answering service hung up on me. Second time I called I was on hold for 8 minutes. Poor kid...now she's telling me that she's sorry that she's sick.

nevertoomanyshoes I had very bad sciatic pain when I was pregnant with DS. Massages would give me a day or two of relief but I found the most relief was to hit the right balance of activity every day. Too much movement and it would hurt, too much sitting and it would hurt, but if I did just the right amount of swimming and/or yoga on a regular basis I would be reasonably comfortable. I know the idea of putting on a swimsuit right now is painful, but if you have access to the water I would highly recommend it. Sympathies. It is so, so excruciating.

Thanks ladies. Just got back from the dr...she seems to think it's just a stomach bug and gave me some anti nausea meds for her. She was worried that DD might have been a little dehydrated, but the numbers came back on the low side of normal. Looks like we're going to cuddle on the couch watching Rudolph and drinking juice today.
