I was saying how I've been feeling down and I'm still bummed out that there are no therapists/psychologists in my area who accept my insurance. He said, "Well, until you figure it out you can just talk to me!" Um, "No. I need to be able to complain about you."

Have you tried looking into online therapy? My SO does it via skype and apparently it's supposed to be just as effective as an in person office visit.

It turns out this is like the one thing I'm old fashioned about! I should really look into it, though.

Bill is being weird. I'm about 90% sure it's about his teeth, but he has seriously picked the worst time to be out of sorts and not sleeping the "right way". We have a new girl coming over tonight to watch him while he sleeps so SO and I can go to pub trivia for the first time in like two years and now I'm worried that he'll wake up and a stranger will be there and it'll be a big disaster. The bar is only like ten minutes away but I still feel weird and nervous, but I know if I cancel we will literally never go out again. I NEED this night and I feel so selfish. I'm just babbling incoherently now. Also I want to workout but I have some sort of splinter in my foot that I can't seem to remove. Argh!
cornpop311 my understanding is the every-3-year rule is in effect ONLY for women who have never had an abnormal pap. I had an abnormal last year and I'm supposed to get a test annually. Before that, I was on the every three years path.
amch8 , I think you get an annual pap for the first five years after the abnormal test. It's been about 6 years for me now so I'm moved to every 3. i'm still not happy about it though.
I'm sure if you told your doctor about your discomfort they'd accommodate you. I guess the issue is getting insurance to cover it if it's not considered a medical imperative. How annoying!
Just started my period, so that explains my mood swings. Maybe I don't need the therapy... Just some chocolate! This is my last period before my HSG and then hopefully a clean bill of health to start TTC#2! Eep!
Dh took Dylan to the ped this morning and she has another ear infection - other ear this time.
We took her to her bi-annual dentist appointment at lunch and she was not a fan again. We had to hold her down so that's fun. Oh and her first 2 year molar is coming through - wonder if that's contributing to her getting sick all the time lately.
BFP #1 December 2012 - MMC January 2013, D&C February 2013 BFP #2 October 2014 - DD arrived July 16, 2015 BFP #3 July 2016 - MC @ 9 weeks August 2016 BFP #4 Due January 2, 2018 - Please stick baby!
I'm home with my sick kiddo. He's feeling a lot better, but he's still a snot bucket and congested/coughy, so I'm glad we kept him home from DC. So far he's had a complete tantrum meltdown because I wouldn't let him color on the couch with a Sharpie and because I wouldn't let him play in the neighbor's bed of rose bushes. Is it nap time yet?

@amc25 and @justinslovo, I'm so excited to see your babies! I have a feeling you'll be holding yours before I am holding mine. I apparently have a comfy uterus.

I'm having such a down day, I just need a good cry and can hopefully move on. I've cried multiple times already about my baby being 4, H is being a grump, still haven't heard back about his interview last week, one of my 3 friends in town is leaving end of march, and one of my favorite patients is dying a long drawn out death this week and it's so mentally draining for me. I just need a day off to recharge and feel human again, but I can't do that since I work so much that I would feel too guilty leaving the boys to be alone.
I don't know what it is about the grocery store right by my work, but omg the old ladies there that shop around lunch time are mean! I go there frequently on my lunch breaks - it's a 2 minute drive from my office. I went today during my break to get a few things for the dinner I am making tonight. The older ladies don't move out of the way, give dirty looks, and are just super rude in general. I always have at least one instance where I notice an older woman being awful. Like, one time I started loading my things at the register, the lady in front of me had already put up all her stuff and she had like a fucking can of aquanet and some prunes, and she yelled at me when I started unloading my cart!! My stuff was nowhere near hers.
Today the lady in front of me in line gave me a super dirty look. I am not wearing anything provocative. My hair is not in some eclectic style, just down and straight. I have no idea what I did for her to look at me that way. I am not wearing a shirt that says fuck off grandma. I don't get it. Why are these ladies so mean?
I just realized I wont be home to see A before bedtime and it's making me so sad. I have to work til 6 then told a friend Id go over her house to catch up. I've been standing my friend up a lot lately and she really is the best and so understanding. But she doesnt have kids and can't fully grasp things so the guilt has gotten to me. I needed to carve some time for her. Mom guilt is lose/lose.
Did you guys ever buy the candy by the front at HomeGoods? It always looks so good and I'm ALWAYS disappointed. I wish they just sold regular candy instead of the fancy crap. Now I'm going to throw out a $4 bag of watermelon gummies.

cornpop311 it's every 3 years for normal, healthy crevices. If you've had an abnormal pap history or are high-risk, your provider should be at least considering doing them more frequently.
ETA I meant cervixs... not crevices. Too funny to really fix! Hope your crevices are healthy cornpop311!
Poor A was sent home from daycare with a fever of 101 yesterday. Today she didn't have a fever all day, but a cough and runny nose. She currently has a fever >103, its as high as it got before she ripped the thermometer out. And that was almost an hour after ibuprofen. I'm currently rocking her while she sleeps and coughs and wakes up crying. I'm hoping H will take a sick day tomorrow. As much as I want to stay home with her I HAVE to go to work tomorrow. I took so much time off already because I was sick and I've always been the one to stay home with her when she was sick before. I know he's going to throw a fit. Ugh. To top it off, I was diagnosed as still having a sinus infection (despite treatment with 2 rounds of antibiotics) and I have thrush (thank you steroid inhaler and pregnancy) can it please be spring for real already?!?!!

The dark chocolate covered espresso beans are pretty good!
So DD2's birthday was today. I took the day off - ate lunch at school with both bigs - and drove the 45 minutes to pick up my mom. My mom is really in bad shape; I'm currently drinking my feels. My saint of a H drove her back home tonight while I put all the girls to bed.
queenofcats, sending hugs and strength! Moving with a clingy toddler sounds no fun.
@amc25, shawnabm1320 and @justinslovo, can't believe it's almost baby time!!! Hope everything goes smoothly!
amch8, for a while, I was getting super ragey at DH every few weeks and then I'd kinda get over it. And then I realized it was corresponding with PMS, but I will never ever tell him that. Hope you find someone to talk to- besides him!
