TnT10, hopefully he doesnt have c-diff. T had it several times when going through treatment and it is rough.

TP: We got our new robotic vacuum yesterday so I set it up and was very excited about it. Well I met my mom out for happy hour and she had four vodka tonics, and then when we got home wanted to see how the vacuum works. There we are, all sitting there watching it go around the room, when she decides it has to pick up a piece of dirt in a spot it hadn't gone by yet so SHE KICKED IT TO TRY AND MAKE IT GO OVER THERE. 29 days to go, I can do this...

[cavewmn]

mcktymck oh my goodness. I hope this month goes by fast for both of us.

I'm sorry about your GD diagnosis! The finish line is in sight, you've got this And TP to your shitty friend from yesterday, you have every right to be upset over having GD.

I have a cartoon related UO: not a fan. I don't care if DS watches them (Thomas is huge at our house!) but I am not looking forward to the day when I have to sit through a feature-length cartoon movie. Disney movies? No thanks. Zootopia? Don't care. I'm one of the few who has not seen Frozen nor heard the song "let it go".

My mind is actually blown over the fact you've never heard the song "let it go". How?!

Thank you! I'm currently waiting for her to go again to take the stool sample in, I'm just irritated the nurse I talked to first thing this morning didn't just call it in. Now we probably won't get results today, which I guess doesn't really matter but it has my hormones raging. She got sick in the car on the way back from the hospital picking up the sample cup, ugh it's no fun and I'm just whiny.

[melody330]

I'm sitting in the waiting area to get my rhogam shot, and it's the same room as the chemo patients. The guy that sits down directly next to me (there are plenty of other seats open) stinks like cigarettes. I got up and moved seats. Nasty. Now I have a headache

[melody330]

And I want to TP the blood work people. I fucking came yesterday to get it so it would be ready today. I showed up an hour early to this appointment so I would be out of here by 3:30. Ds has a Mother's Day party at 3:45. They fucked up my blood work paperwork and it's not fucking ready. I CAME LAST NIGHT SO THIS WOULDNT HAPPEN.

I told the nurse I need to be out of here by 3:30 and she basically laughed at me.

I'll bawl if I miss Mothers Day at DC

[housecarder]

mcktymck can you just kick her every time she isn't doing what you want from now on?

[housecarder]

MOTY over here. DS is playing a game on the fire stick that H usually plays and crashed his car. He then yelled "shit!" as loud as he could.

Whoops! This is bound to be us one day. I try really hard to not curse in front of ds....but I'm not very good at censoring myself at home. So far he hasn't repeated any of it, but I know it's coming!

I told him he wasn't allowed to say that and he said "But that's what daddy says when he crashes".

Then the next crash he goes "This is bullshit!" So he had to stop playing the game. It was so hard not to laugh.

My 2 year old has repeated a couple of my f-bombs. Whoops! I really enjoy how your DS knows when to use that word!

Oh MH has quite the vocabulary. I do too but as a previous preschool teacher I am good about censoring myself around the kids. All of the stuff that comes out of DS's mouth is straight from H.

The other night he told DS it was time for bed and he looked H straight in the face and said "Are you on drugs?"

Yes! Be upset! I cried when I found out with ds. It was the day before thanksgiving too.

I hadn't heard it til a month ago when I showed ds the movie. He was unimpressed.

That's really impressive, I feel like that song was EVERYWHERE for months after the movie came out!

Thanks. This is our busy season. So birthdays and two holidays that always have desserts. This will be interesting.

Just eat well for dinner....wait your time after, check your sugar, then have a small piece of dessert! That's what I did for thanksgiving and Christmas that year. Hugs!

Make sure your dh brings you dessert at the hospital!!!

[cabbagecabbage]

I was very careful and followed the diet and I still had a small piece of cake at a birthday party. If you're following the diet, you can cheat here or there just a tiny bit.

I liked the carb smart ice cream bars. I think they were 14 carbs and portioned controlled. Bedtime snack of champions!

This! I recently had my appointment for GD, and was told that it was unrealistic for doctors to think that you are going to be good 100% of the time. She said to just check my sugars and since I know what is a good level and what isn't, base dessert off of that....and just have something small. She also said that depriving yourself completely, will make you even more miserable and do more harm than good (again, if your levels are good before eating the dessert). I failed my 1 hour by 60 something points. Then I failed all but one of my 3 hour draws. So far with my blood sugar checks, they have been well below the "maximum", so I make sure to occasionally have a little treat as a "Way to go! You ate good today!" reward. HAHA!

I just want to punch all the people.

Is anyone else really slowing down now? I'm 29 weeks tomorrow and feel like I did at 36 with DD. My hips hurt constantly and I know I'm no fun to be around. I'm scared of what the next maybe 11 weeks will look like. :/

Yes. Absolutely. I am so exhausted that most nights I'm asleep by 8. I'm constantly sitting down at work and generally feeling miserable

Yep 31 weeks and change and I'm tired after just about every task and getting lots of bh. Went out side with DD this afternoon to take some pictures - we were out for half an hour, maybe 45 minutes and I had to come in and just sit for a while. Finally got up to make dinner, which wasn't complicated, but so tired and uncomfortable during dinner. Just got through the hour long toddler bedtime routine and I'm lounging on the couch with my rock hard belly wishing I could just go to bed.

So much. I waddle everywhere, and there is no comfortable position for my hips. I am actually going to get a maternity support belt and I have a chiropractor appointment tomorrow. I cannot even imagine another 2 months being this uncomfortable. Like you, I made it to around 36-37 weeks last time before feeling like this. It has just been getting progressively worse for the last few weeks. And sleep is so awful because of it.

I think my H is sick of me, but being really polite about it.

I know I feel better than many of you, but I can't help compare myself to my last pregnancy. I was running until 37 weeks, felt good up until the birth, and gained just a little more total than what I've gained at this point. I'm 28 weeks and feeling like I'm at least 35. It's depressing to think how I'll be in July. So I feel your pain :-(

[ellebelle]

Likes for solidarity. Sorry so many others are so uncomfortable too though!

[housecarder]

Ray are you still having issues at work?
ellebelle I am so uncomfortable. I don't remember it being this bad the last two times.
