Oh, hugs. Don't worry! Everything will be fine. She'll keep right on cookin' as long as she needs to!
You must be getting close to weekly appointments, right? Maybe that will ease your mind a little? Somehow getting checked at the doc always makes me feel a little better.

I'm not worried about her being undercooked so much as I am that I'm just not ready. Her room is still completely filled with crap since it's been doubling as a storage room for a year. Now I'm too fat to bend over and clean lol.
Yeah, it is. I'll admit to having had his room basically ready since before Thanksgiving.
Since we moved at the end of October before Haden was born, I procrastinated and he never got settled into his permanent room until he was 6 months old. I just remember being in the hospital, having him, knowing we had no crib ready, no glider, no swing, no nothing. Like no place to set the baby down at home let alone anything else. His room was a cluttered mess of boxes and gift bags and that room wasn't even his final room.
I was so stressed about it that I swore to Ray that Hunter's room was going to be ready. So yeah. The basics of his room have been ready since Nov. or Dec. I've been slowly doing the rest (camera, curtains, wall art, etc.) and all his clothes (Haden's old NB size clothes lol) are washed and in his drawers. I think it's all done now, actually, except for stocking diapers on the shelves. Unless I'm forgetting something.

That makes me feel better lol I have felt insane having that room so ready so early.
And no, I never put pics on M15. All these FTMs especially have these super-coordinated theme nurseries and Hunter's room is cute but def not like that (neither is Haden's) so I figured I'd stay out of it. But for you, I'll take some pics tonight.

I should take a picture of what this LO's room looks like at the moment. You'd probably have a panic attack.
The walls are also dark blue. Once upon a time it was John's office.

I finally ordered the crib and changing table yesterday. My cleaning people came yesterday and wont be back for 2 weeks. I told John I wanted the room cleaned out and the room painted and furniture put together by then. Because....36 weeks at that point. Running out of time, dude.
Oh, and speaking of diapers. Hunter's box of NB size diapers arrived from Amazon yesterday and they were so small and tiny and made me cry. No joke.
Makes me laugh right now, but I seriously had tears when I opened the box. Because that makes sense lol
....I should buy diapers too. I'd probably cry when I opened them too. I cried at a cereal commercial the other day.
Re: cleaning people
Best investment I've ever made. I only pay $70 every two weeks. I basically don't clean my bathroom anymore and just keep things decluttered in between. Love it.

I had cleaners for a short time when I lived on my own in town. My house was tiny, I just didn't feel like cleaning the damn thing and had extra money because it was just me. It was so amazing to come home from work and walk into magically clean house.
Now that we live in the boonies though nobody wants to come clean our house lol

pearsforpoops, heyitsmamac, You two are so close!! I can't believe how time flies. And heyitsmamac, you know how they don't need much at first. Not even a room. You'll be fine
My pregnancy ticker keeps changing - GAH! Today it said I have 28 weeks left. UH, what??!!! I knock 3 off in my head because of the twins and then I can't breathe for an hour.

Oh yeah, that makes sense. Pros and cons of living in the boonies for sure. I hate having neighbors so I totally want to live in the middle of nowhere.

The room we were going to put LO in was the guest/storage room. We cleaned out the dresser in there for his clothes and made space for his crib, but had to keep the bed in there cause MIL was goign to stay with us for a few weeks to help with the twins. We figured LO would sleep in the pack n play in our room anyways in the beginning and we'd get it all sorted out once we moved him to his own room. We ended up co-sleeping with LO and 13 months later he is still in our bed and we have made no progress in making over the spare bedroom for him. I think at this point, we might separate the twins and have the boys share a room and make the spare room into a big girl room for DD.
Eek thesportsgal that's crazy. Have you thought about whether all the kids will share a room at first or anything?
I think the twins will share a room at first until they start waking/keeping each other up. That's after being in our room for a couple months since I'm hoping to breastfeed. LO will stay where she is and then we'll make one nursery for the 2. Then I'll say good bye to my guest room and gym I created just a couple short months ago Oh well.

DH is stopping to check out a potential car for me right now. I'm still not sure how he thinks I'm going to drive this school bus size car through the parking garage at work, but whatever.
Also, i just bought spicy nacho doritos and a ruby red squirt for lunch. Because....pregnant.
pearsforpoops Haha, I know. We're lucky to already have a 4 bedroom house so we're all set.
But I bought a commercial PreCor that will have to be taken apart and moved to the basement. BOO HOO I know
I wouldn't fault you at all lol.
I considered making the boys share a room so that we could have a guest room, play room, and office separate so I'd have space to have my elliptical upstairs. I'm certain if it was upstairs I'd actually use it. Pfft.
Instead the boys get their own rooms and my neglected elliptical is in the basement.

What's he looking at? The Suburban?
Also, sounds delicious. I'm on my something like 5th day straight of requiring a Dr. Pepper at work thanks to you.
