I give up trying to have a sleep schedule. I was tired at 8, went to sleep but my body just thought it was a nap and now I'm up wide awake. Guess I'll be used to those long nights awake

Yeah, that ship sailed for me ages ago. I have to fight night naps since my late morning naps keep me up enough as it is.

chilibeansm0m whats your edd again?

When I was pregnant with DS, the nurse did the strep test but didn't warn me (I was already undressed due to cervical check), I shot straight up and looked at her with huge eyes. She told me, "oh, sorry I had to swab you." I asked at my last appt if I could just be treated as GBS+ since I had it with both my other kids. I'm paranoid they'll miss it, and the OB was ok with this.

I'm starting to feel a little better. Poor DS had blood sugar (disease) issues tonight, and his tummy hurt. He may have a small virus he's fighting, so I'll be keeping a close eye on him over night. As long as his legs don't start hurting (first signs that his body is starting to attack itself), he should be good. Luckily I can still hide corn starch in chocolate milk and he'll take it.

luckystarz aww I hope your DS feels Bette soon and his legs dont start to ache!

Same! After my OB basically told me it could happen any time now, I had a mini freakout. She was very concerned about whether my hospital bag was ready.

[luckystarz]

ruemorgan I hope you feel better, I can't fathom a stomach virus this pregnant. You deserve all the things when you feel better.

We have 34 days until our induction as of tomorrow morning, ack! It has lit a fire up under the husband to start getting some things done around the house and he decided we'll buy a minivan this week.

Rquinlin, I agree!! But at least a week would give them time to be like "Holy shit. What is this crap?"

The human race would never survive! Lol!

Either that or they would hail us all as queens or extra special people! And there would be no more of this "government regulated uterus" crap!

I really hope the kids who were (negligently) exposed to measles don't have any immune system deficiencies. The only good that can come from the people who have had the measles due to this outbreak is they will be immune for the rest of their lives, God willing they survive it.

[melissat2742]

I am so excited to have tomorrow completely off. Now I just have to get motivated to start work on the nursery. Hopefully I get to sleep in a little first.
Hopefully everyone who's sick starts to feel better and everyone had good appointments.

[mel7806]

ruemorgan I hope you feel better soon! Being sick while pregnant is BS!
tazminian That really sucks! I'm glad you have a handle on everything and can deal with it calmly! I would have gotten so overwhelmed and just handed everything over to my DH to fix.
luckystarz I hope L feels better in the morning! FX that his legs don't hurt and he can move on quickly from this yuckiness!

I'm wondering how long until DH tells me I can't go in the kitchen anymore. I burned two of my fingers last night making dinner and sliced right into the side of another finger making dinner tonight. I'm trying really hard to be careful, I swear!

janda426 they stick a swab in your vagina and your bum. It's quick but very uncomfortable... Or it was for me at least.

Unless you have kaiser. Then they just send you to the bathroom with the swab and tell you to rub it all over yourself.

I have kaiser but here the doctor still does it. I think kaisers are pretty different state to state?

Ditto my OB will swab me on Monday and they did with my first too. Good times.

ruemorgan Feel better. I'm sorry you're sick!

Every single article I read on this measles outbreak makes me so damned angry. Now (FINALLY!!) public schools are starting to have the conversation of how to make it more difficult to allow unvaccinated kids into the schools. In my opinion, if you don't have a MEDICAL reason to not be vaccinated, it is your responsibility to help keep yours and every other persons child healthy by vaccinating your damn kids. People are so stupid. I have even read a few articles where some pediatricians are still on the "It's not the critical of a vaccine" bandwagon. I'm sorry, but if my newborn could DIE from something you refused to vaccinate for, I'd say that's pretty damned critical. So much stupid flooding the earth right now. Apparently (for those who may not know) measles was declared eradicated in 2000, with only 64 reported cases, pretty much all from immigrants who were diagnosed here. In 2014 there were 644, yes SIX HUNDRED FOURTY FOUR, reported cases pretty much all stemming from people who refused to vaccinate their children. UGH! /endrant
