I have an OB appt this morning and none of the parking gates are working so it's a real cluster here at the clinic/hospital. One guy wanted me to park three blocks away, but another lady stuck up for me and said "she's nine months pregnant, she's not walking!".
Luckily I have breakfast with me and am half an hour early!
ellebelle Uck, that's terrible. I hope you feel better soon!
I have been up most nights with insomnia and last night I actually slept decent and woke up in a good mood this morning. Planning on getting a lot of errands done today!
Glad your DD is feeling better cabbagecabbage! I hope you're not far behind ellebelle. GL with your appointment littlesthobo. glaze - I hear you in insomnia - a couple nights ago j didn't fall asleep until about 4am!
AFM: SS1 didn't want to go back to his mother's house so he's chilling with us for the week. We're just hanging out currently while DHbis at work. I slept like crap again last night. Now that he's dropped I have to wake up every few hours to pee. I also woke up with a brutal leg cramp - so bad I could stretch it out - I had to put my foot on the floor and put weight on it just to opposite flex it. Now my leg is really sore so it's going to be a Netflix kind of day.

I have a somewhat short week this week since I get a half day on Friday. I am so ready for my 3 and a half day weekend.
H and I did manage to clean the house really well yesterday but we have not gotten the car seat in the car yet. Maybe sometime this week or next weekend.
ellebelle, I'm sorry you are not feeling well. I hope it passes soon.
Had my 39 week appt this morning and made another one for next week. Since I'm due on Sunday and it's a holiday weekend I'll be 40 + 2 if I have to keep that appointment Really hoping I don't need it.
Also talked to my insurance about a breast pump - rather than with every baby, I can only get one every 36 months, so no new pump for me. Should be fine since I didn't use mine a ton and probably won't use it much this time, but I kinda wanted a shiny new one.
littlesthobo, FX for a good appointment and that your morning starts to go a little smoother! ellebelle, hope you feel better soon! That sounds awful at the tail end of pregnancy glaze, its so amazing what a little sleep can do! Hope you have a productive day! cabbagecabbage, yay! Hope her fever stays gone and you're able to get some things done! Ray, leg cramps are the absolute worst. And I'm with you on the constantly peeing train. Zero fun, but at least it means we're almost at the finish line! sarcaztic10, I'm in the opposite boat! We got the car seats installed but our house is a disaster. Hoping to get a little done at a time this week comicSans, FX for you that you don't have to go back at 40+2!
AFM... I had the realization today that with next Monday being a holiday, this will probably be my last full week of work (God willing!). Its a little surreal and I don't know if its hit me yet. Especially since, in all liklihood, I won't be coming back here at all.
That's my insurance's policy too comicSans. I had bought my PISA with DD since this was before insurance had to cover it but good to know if we do go for a third.
The girls finally decided that they like food more than sleep and were up every 3 hours wanting to eat. So I'm a little tired today, but H and I will take turns napping to help.
Appointment went great, she said baby's going to be big! I told her DS was born 6lbs 14oz at 39 weeks and she said that's roughly what this little guy is now at 36 weeks. Oh boy.
And she gave me permission to go to the cottage this weekend, woot! (My mom keeps going off on how this is not a good idea, I'm going to be uncomfortable, blah blah blah, ask your doctor- I only asked so I could placate my mom). Umm, stay at home with no AC or sit in the lake all weekend and be taken care of by my ILs? Hmm....

I have my 39 week appointment today too! With the holiday the earliest my next appointment would be is 40+3. Definitely hope to not keep it!

How far away is the cottage? My aunt was giving me a hard time about vacation last week, I was like they have hospitals where I'm going, I'm sure everything will be fine!
And you're in the clear so far this time? How did you come about your diagnosis?
I ask because the past 2 nights I've been itching like crazy, especially my feet. Last night after I'd been up for 2 hours I googled and came across Cholestasis. I have an appointment today and am going to mention it to my doctor but I don't have a ton of faith in him.

Just spent 20 minutes freaking out about baby not moving. Chugged a glass of water and laid down. She finally moved when ds pretty much sat on my belly. Thanks, ds.
ellebelle on no! I hope You're feeling better soon. Nothing worse than a stomach bug this pregnant.
Ray I get the worse leg cramps at night. It doesn't matter how much water I drink. The only thing that helps in jumping out of bed and standing on the leg that had the cramp. It's usually sore the next day too
I quit working right at 37 weeks with DD1, so this is the most pregnant I've ever been at work. Two C-level guys have already poked their heads in my office and asked if everything is ok. This is going to be a long couple weeks, lol.
We just got back from breakfast at my friends house. DS bit her DD pretty bad, but otherwise it was good. Not really sure what happened since they were in the other room. He doesn't normal bite either.

I got diagnosed at 36 weeks last time. So I'm still not in the clear, the odds of reoccurrence are really high. That's exactly what symptom I had. I was generally itchy during the day, but at night my hands and feet were intensely itchy. Like couldn't sleep. Insist on getting the blood test done. It's for bile salts and one for liver function. Liver can come back normal and bile salts can be elevated or they both can be high. But the recommendation is to induce upon diagnosis anytime after 37 weeks.

How far away is the cottage? My aunt was giving me a hard time about vacation last week, I was like they have hospitals where I'm going, I'm sure everything will be fine!
Just over two hours. But hospital-wise, the distance from the cottage to the nearest hospital is 25 mins, whereas at home to the hospital is 20 mins. And at the cottage I won't have to wait for anyone to come watch DS!
My mom is so frustrating, a few weeks ago I called to see if DS and I could come visit, but she had plans, so I said no problem, I would take DS swimming instead. Five minutes later she called back and told me she cancelled her plans and to come over because swimming with DS wasn't safe.
I've told her very little about this pregnancy because I just don't want to hear about it from her (my struggles with work, spotting, etc).
I've started building my post baby wardrobe and am actually looking forward to it now! I was worried about having tops that I could breastfeed in as well as pants/bottoms that fit during those awkward first couple months of still being squishy and not back to pre-pregnancy size, and I've decided that my new BFFs are elastic, drawstring shorts. They make them in fun patterns and they're SO comfy (I can fit in them now even with my giant belly!) so the thought of having some cute new clothes is very exciting to me

Yeah, immediate childcare combined with AC would definitely convince me to go to the cottage!
