Wednesday Wines/Whines and Randoms

[housecarder]

What's going good/bad today?

[housecarder]

Wine: So thankfully H's cousin's little girl is doing better.

Whine: I was feeling great and had promised to take DS on a walk to the park this morning with the girls while H ran into work for a bit. Woke up to nothing but rain.

[sarcaztic10]

Wine: I will really ahve to think about this...

Whine: I spent yesterday having diarrhea and of course about 2-3 weeks ago I ate one of those granola bars that was recalled due to suspected Listeria. I am so upset that I am having another Listeria scare. I have a call in to my OB's office to see when I can come in for the test and this time I will be begging them just to prescribe me some antibiotics since that is how you treat Listeria anyway. If tehy dont call back by 12 pm I will be heading into L&D to ask them to test me and give me the Rx.

On top of that when I got up at 5 am today L was already up. I told him to go back to bed and he did without question. It took me about 10 minutes to get suspicious about him just being ok going back to his room when he usually might resist. Well, I went in to check on him and he had somehow gotten a hold of his Fire tablet and was just sitting in his bed playing it. I took it away and told him to go to sleep. When I looked down the tablet only had 20% power left. When I asked H if he charged it last night he said yes... Well, as it turns out L got up at 3 am last night and when H told him to go back to bed he just grabbed the tablet. So, L had been up since 3 am... And we have our suspicions that he got out into the garage into the deep freeze and was eating ice cream sandwiches in the middle of the night as well.

Today just is not going well so far.

I'm quietly knocking things off the to do list while watching a sparrow build a nest on our front porch.

sarcaztic10 that sucks about your DS being up in the middle of the night... Hopefully he's not too cranky today. But as an outsider all of his nighttime adventures are making me laugh! Sounds like he had a really fun time!
Keep us posted on the possible listeria, fingers crossed you don't have it!

[littlesthobo]

Wine: I totally had two naps yesterday.

Whine: I don't know what to do with all the crap in my upstairs hallway. It's all miscellaneous stuff that came out of he office when we turned it into DS's room. I bet I could chuck it all and not miss it, but I feel the need to hang onto it.

[housecarder]

Wine: my feet have finally gone down to normal size.

Whine: they are still pretty sore from being so stretched for a week.

[jewelsofthenile]

Wine: I sleep well last night got a whole 8 hrs of sleep! Of cousre there were a few wake ups to pee in there

Whine: I am still falling a sleep at my desk today at work. I should feel rested right?

[mcktymck]

Wine: H is taking my car to get cleaned inside and out today so that it'll be all ready to have the car seat installed Saturday. Yaaaay clean car!

Whine: we still have NO idea when my mom and her bf are finally moving out. I was told they're hoping to find out a date today, but I'm not keeping my fingers crossed...

I'm on maternity leave so that's great, but the stupid 3rd party handling my leave is not based in CA and they have no freaking idea how leave works in CA so they messed up my paperwork. I'm about to lose my shit!

I hate that maternity leave is such a complicated thing. Fx that they get it all straightened out.

Wine: DD slept 12 hours last night!

good appointment today. Met another midwife and really liked her. She assured me baby is not in OP position right now.

Whine: The reason DD slept 12 hours us that she broke down in a tantrum at a restaurant at dinner. I had to haul her out to the car while DH paid and got the food boxed. I put her to bed as soon as her tantrim was winding down. I thought this was behind us!

I'm officially at the weight I gave birth last time and I have 5 more weeks.

[TnT10]

housecarder, I'm glad that she is doing better! We are getting the rain up here this afternoon, it is supposed to be BAD. DNW to come in and deal with claims at work all morning tomorrow, ugh! I might just stay home to rest tomorrow, also my annoying coworker is back on Tues/ Thurs while the boss is in Italy. Two reasons to stay home, sounds like a plan to me!

sarcaztic10, I'm sorry you're day started out like that, I think it's hard dealing with any type of discipline at this point. Ughh, hugs!

[mcktymck]

No baby yet TnT10?! How are you feeling?

[melody330]

Wine: my BFF came over unannounced with her two DDs. The older one is DS's best friend and the younger one is a squish still so we had a blast. I don't need to put on a bra or clean up when she comes, and I love it.

Whine: since I'm elbow deep in PTing, it's about that. DS has had no accidents in a day and a half. He's going about an hour and asks to use the potty. So after we went on the toilet I put undies on him and explained we don't pee in them, we still go in the potty.
Three minutes later he's yelling he peed on the couch. Guess he's not ready for undies yet. Ugh! One more day inside it is

[cavewmn]

Wine: Dilated - 2. This surprised the NP. It kind of hurt to be checked but I felt like she was in the way longer than she needed to be pushing around. lol We have a few packages coming today!

Whine: I am so tired. I really hope he comes by the 8th but I also know the statistics of him coming by the 8th. lol Also it looks like my blood pressure is starting to creep up....

[jewelsofthenile]

melody330 I tried a weekend of intense potty training with DD a few weeks ago. She does great if she is naked will pee and poop on her own. In fact Itook all her clothes and diaper off last night because she got spagetti sauce all over herself at dinner and she went poop by herself! Put underware or pants on her and she will not tell you anything even if i remind or ask her and just goes in her pants. I figure I will give a few months see if we can really kick the diaper habitat towards the end of my maternity leave. I hope that works we shall see.

[glaze]

Wine: It's my mom's birthday today so I get cake tonight! Yum.

Whine: I've been super nauseas the past two days. I'm so sick of feeling like crap all the time. It's probably going to take me forever to lose the baby weight because I'm going to eat everything in sight for awhile.

[mcktymck]

Major wine: H is going to bring back food from my current favorite restaurant, a Hawaiian place we get takeout from at least once a week. They have different specials depending on the day and Wednesday is my favorite, can't wait for him to get home so I can stuff my face.

[willow]

Wine: I'm getting a massage later. It is so badly needed.

Whine: Everything hurts.

The nurse called back and said they want me to go in tomorrow to give a stool sample. It will take 7-10 days for results. I told them that 7-10 days was too long when listeria may have already affected S by that time. I also told her that according to the CDC website stool samples are no longer recommended as testing for Listeria. She said that is what my OB ordered based on my not having a fever, just diarrhea. I told her that according to the CDC the mother may only present with mild symptoms like diarrhea but that the danger is to the baby and the danger increases in the third tri. She basically shrugged everything off and said that the stool sample kit would be waiting for me at my appt tomorrow and that I could discuss my concerns with the NP then.

I am so upset, it's like they have never even heard of Listeria. They refuse to do their research and refuse to listen to reason. Why would you order a stool sample test that takes 10 days to get back when the results would probably get back too late if something horrible were to happen? I am printing off the CDC website info on Listeria and bringing it to my appt tomorrow.

[lostinfaith225]

Aaaaaaaahhhhhh! Baby cheese!
Good luck lovegrilledcheese!!!!!!!!

[housecarder]

sarcaztic10 I'm sorry you have to deal with a listeria scare and that they seem to be blowing it off. Hopefully your doctor appt will go better tomorrow.
