Random: so many of you are talking about giving birth and having babies to care for and buying clothing, and I'm still mostly in la la land about having this baby. In my mind, I'm still in my first tri, and this baby is coming next year. Hitting 30 weeks made me panic slightly but not quite enough to do anything about it!
Oh! So I went to the OB yesterday. They're testing me for cholestasis. I already have the symptoms, but it takes a week for the bile salts test to come back. So con: meds, increased testing, stress. Pro: I'd have a day for when I get to meet my little.
So if you have it, does that mean a scheduled CS? I feel like that was the case with your daughter right? I know you feel like you'll have it again, but maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised!
Scheduled induction. I was in labor for 16 hours but I managed to have DD vaginally. I've heard that a second induction is much easier because your body knows what to do the second time. The first one was rough because I wasn't dilated or thinned at all at 37 weeks. So phrases like "we need to double down on the pitocin" were thrown around a lot. But my OB is a good guy and told me he wouldn't push for section unless we hit 36 hours/one of us was in distress.
My mom just told me that the move in date of their new house got pushed back to the 10th...at the EARLIEST. I'm just going to go hide in a corner and cry now, and wish I could have a glass or bottle of wine.

I'm so sorry.
At this rate I'll be 35 weeks or farther before we can even start setting up the nursery... I'm trying not to stress about it, but I'm definitely panicking now!

So I'm back to AW our shopping spree. Several of their outfits were 50% off and the shoes were all BOGO free so I bought cute sandals to match their 4th outfits and white ones for if we want to put them in something for church stuff.
Here are the 4th outfits we have (I know it's silly but it's their first holiday and I wanted to go all out)
We also got some toys: rattles, balls, etc. H was super cute and picked out these tiny rattle stuffed animals because he wanted to get them something from him on their "birthday".

Oh housecarder my daughter wore those little Carter's rompers with the animal appliqués a baby and they are just so cute on chubby baby girl legs. I'm going to miss girl clothes so much this time.
housecarder, I love everything!!! The nursery looks fabulous, and the outfits are so adorable. I love the ruffles in the 4th outfits! You will definitely have to AW the girls wearing them.

I'm so sorry. If it makes you feel better, we are moving when I'll be 37 weeks. We can't set up the nursery until we get a new dresser, chair, and a few other things for DS as all of his furniture is going to the baby. So who knows when that will happen. So +1 for solidarity on being super last minute!
