Is It Really Monday? SPAM

[hernsy]

Do your thing.

[hernsy]

This morning I feel like I usually do around 2pm. Like I've hit a wall and I just can't. I'm really not sure how this (meaning me) is going to work today.

I think we overdid it this weekend. We ran a lot of errands, saw American Sniper, cleaned the house, and completed the pallet board piece I wanted for LO's room. I also thought it might be a good idea to have people over for dinner last night. I'm kicking myself today.

I have my 37 week check up today. This is insane to me. 2nd pregnancies truly do FLY past.

I went into full on cleaning mode and reorganized the nursery closet, deep cleaned the carpets and cleaned the kitchen top to bottom.

My boobs sprung a leak yesterday. This is new territory for me, since I didn't even leak one drop until after birth with DS.

Snow Snow Snow

Very looking forward to going home already, and I've been at work for 10 minutes. I doubt I'll make it in tomorrow, so I talked myself into coming in today.

I've got an appointment on Wednesday evening that DH can't make it to, so I'm hoping this icky weather clears up by then.

Happy Wednesday!

[michelle142]

I'm nowhere near the big blizzard zone, but thinking about getting that much snow so close to my due date gives me palpitations.
*breathes into paper bag*

I told DH yesterday that if there's a blizzard warning at anytime in the next 3 weeks, I'm just going to sleep in the hospital parking ramp.

Snow fever here in Jersey, too.

I have my growth US at 10:15 this morning. I'm very excited to see her again!

Other than that....I suppose I'll hang out and watch the snow with the dogs Stay safe everyone!

[AppropriateChocolate]

Happy Monday ladies. Rough weekend period like cramping (I have no idea what this means FTM or if I should call the doctor) and BH contractions like crazy = no sleep. Plan on sleeping in all day. Stay warm ladies especially with the winter weather headed to the easy coast.

[dreemkin]

This is weird, usually it's Chicago talking about all the snow this time if year. I'm not complaining; it's just strange.

39w appointment today at 4. Nothing else going on. So glad I'm off work today!

[mishka29]

So all those contractions yesterday turned into nothing.... I know it's crazy to expect that things will go the same as they did with DD1 but with her they started and it was go time right away. This whole false labour thing is new to me...and I don't care for it. I just need to focus on something else and get my mind off it.

Now since I thought baby would be here already, I have nothing planned for today or this week really. What to do with myself....

[seamonster]

First day of maternity leave has been fairly productive. Mountain of laundry conquered, at least. I'm so glad I got to sleep in this morning because this wake up every 2 hours on the dot to pee is killing me.

[cginge]

I don't really have anything that I need to get done today, so my big plans for the day consist of watching lots of Netflix and using my Lush bath bomb at some point. Busy day over here.

[sugahcookie01]

Snow day for this teacher.

Probably going to spend it working on long term sub plans (just one class out of three to go!) and nesting.

[misshart00]

No real spam for me today. Trying to find places for all the diapers given to us. A good problem to have I think.

And dealing with DD's sudden change in bowel habits (trying to put that nicely). Trying to decide if it worth calling her doctor.

[hollydfromtn]

I'm planning on being a hermit today and not leaving the house. I have a few areas that still need a good deep clean before we start having nonstop company here in a week or so. Other than that I plan on binging out on some netflix in my pjs.

Can I ask what the issue is?  My DD has a lot of changes as well so I wonder if it's something similar.

Just sudden diarrhea for the past few days. It's not all the time, just when she would normally go anyway. I can see a couple teeth coming in so I'm not sure if that has to do with it. And she doesn't act like her tummy hurts or anything.

38 week appointment today! Does anyone else feel like they've stopped growing? At my 36 week appointment my bump was measuring small Dr did an ultrasound an LO was right where he was supposed to be. But ever since then I feel like I've stopped growing and it beginning to worry me. Should I really be concerned or is this just a FTM freak out?

Oh Em Gee, I totally forgot about Lush bath bombs! We just moved into an appartment with a tub after many tub-less years. There's a Lush right down the street from my office, I really need to pick a few up before I go home...
Now thinking badw0lf's idea of "WFH" is more appealing than ever.

[pitdigger]

Had a good weekend. The gale held off on Saturday so I was able to get my pictures done and the Burns' Night was lovely as usual.

Yesterday was good. Nothing too exciting.

I think I'm going to be in NC in June for the NACRA tournament and baby's first tour even though it's highly unlikely I'll be playing.

I really need to finish packing my hospital bag. Like seriously.

And there's now potentially a general/transport strike going on.

Good morning. Today was a scheduled PTO day so I am relaxing as per the initial plan. DH is working from home- thank god (last night he was allll about driving in, guess he changed his mind!). Except now I have to listen to his boring IT calls all day long. Ugh! Oh well, I'd rather him be here with me. I am doing laundry too. Need him to get his butt off our bed so I can wash the sheets but that doesn't seem to be happening soon. Oh and we were supposed to have a cleaning lady come tomorrow to do our "deep clean" before the baby but it seems like that might be canceled. Grrr. I guess maybe I will do some cleaning on Friday when I am off again.

My parents are staying at our house while we are in the hospital and have offered to clean for me so that is nice. But I'd like to get the poopy toilets at least cleaned. It is embarrassing!

[maddscientist]

no potential snow day for me just a possibility of MORE rain. I am so tired of wiping my dogs feet every time he goes in and out of the house, aside of the fact that it is annoying - it is increasingly uncomfortable.

On a NOT happier note, H's car broke down again this weekend - 1 block from the shitty place that 'fixed' it last week - so we were forced to take it back even though we were trying really hard to not give them any business ever again. It turns out it was their mistake - so they re-fixed it for free, but I am basically waiting for it to break down again. At this rate I am never going to be able to get MY car fixed - which I have to do in the next 3 weeks or I have to pay late fees for my registration.

[mom2xover2002]

Waiting to go home today DH had to go back to work this morning for a bit. Seriously thanking the nursery goddesses for the sleep we got last night. If they offer to take baby to let you sleep and bring baby back at feeding time DO IT! At least one time. Your body will thank you for the sleep!!

Otherwise T&P for those facing snow! Fx crossed for no crazy snow storm birth stories! Be safe momma's!!

[kerrigrooves]

@ work today - stopped and got a spicy breakfast burrito...stoked the cleaning lady is coming today so I get one last clean before this kid arrives! 39 week appt tomorrow - tick tock

[angeldcf]

Brag: DH has been nesting. My love language is acts of service (ie: crossing things off my to-do list) so this has really helped my anxiety. He's re-organizing a few kitchen cabinets by donating stuff & putting up baby bottles, backup formula, etc. After work yesterday, he proudly showed me everything he did off his list

[wendy46001]

While I'm no fan of snow I could use a snow day
Think I've got the nursery to a done enough stage (just have to hang some art)
Combine that with DH putting the shelving system in DDs playroom I think we're baby ready.

Have my 39 week apt tomorrow
If she tells me no progress, I'll breakdown and take DD to the magic kingdom like she's been asking (I've been saying mommy's too tired for the last few weeks)

[lotsofdotts]

I'm jealous for the snow days some of you ladies are getting. I am not in the mood to teach today.

No real spam other than I made some freezer meals last night. That helps my sanity a little.

[misshart00]

I'm going to throw in that we have a high of 70 today.

[flyster]

Working from home today. Hoping to get a bunch of the last tasks done that I wanted to before leave. I'm pretty sure we are going to head to a hotel around 3 pm to be on the safe side. They just instituted a travel ban after 9 pm for my whole state, and I think better safe then sorry if I do go into labor tonight/tomorrow. On the plus side, DH and I can have date night in the "big city"! (its not a big city. But there are a few nice restaurants around )

[kcrosem]

Nst and 38 week appt today and the start of my last week in the office.

Good luck to everyone expecting to deal with the snow!

[kaydee0402]

My momma was here all weekend. She cleaned my house, did a few loads of Little Man's laundry and was able to help my husbandman deal with his family drama so I didn't have to. Now she's back in Florida and I wish she was still here so I can just sleep after work instead of doing chores ):

Also, minor vent. My MIL is a nutcase, the ultimate hypochondriac and she can't stand me (seriously, the woman walked out of our wedding) or the fact that her only son has priorities other than her. Well this weekend was my baby shower, she decided to text my husbandman and get him all worked up about she was going to the ER. She was diagnosed with acute bronchitis, which I've had before and I totally get that it's uncomfortable and sucks, but it's no reason to get my husbandman worked up and try to guilt him into coming to Florida when I'm due and could (possibly) go any day now. I'm just over her.
