Good morning ladies! Busy day at work today and glad tomorrow is Friday. Generally annoyed with ILs today. Vent ahead: My SIL has already bought every single item on two people's Christmas lists. She emailed me "I already got x, y and z for MIL. Pretty much everything on her list. Sorry!" First, it wasn't pretty much everything - it WAS everything. Second, your sorry was basically a sorrynotsorry or you wouldn't have done that. Twice. I also emailed her and MIL about what they got or plan to get for LO so I could know what to buy and what not to buy and never heard back from her. MIL responded yesterday and asked what SIL said, and when I said she didn't get back to me MIL said "She’s pretty emotional about her dog and a favorite uncle had a stroke." Well, I'm sorry about all that but that all happened yesterday and I emailed her this weekend. And she hasn't been too upset to word vomit all over FB sooooo, yeah. Let's not make fake excuses for other people. Blah. Vent over.

ATTN: 2nd Time Moms
I have a HUGE freaking dilemma.
So I found out last night that our final presentations for our degree are in April. 3 days after my due date.
I'm freaking out. They gave us the option if we have extenuating circumstances then we can schedule it for earlier. So I guess my question for ya'll is with your consecutive babies did you deliver earlier??
My EDD is 4/16 and our presentations are supposed to be 4/19, 4/20, or 4/21.
So, interesting 24 hours for me. I ran over my phone last night, complete accident. It's bent a little on one side, but works perfectly. Screen protector and case saved my ass. Yesterday, my town broke a record high. I wore shorts. Today, it's snowing. Gotta love Colorado weather. Picking DH up at the airport tonight. Can't wait to see him. It will be nice to have everyone at home together again.
Nothing doing right now. Cervadil is in place. They're fixing up one of the bigger rooms for me so DH and I are waiting for them to move me in there and then he is going to go home to get some sleep. Induction starting at 7 a.m.!
Really missing dh tonight. I think lo is too. He must have had a bad dream during nap because he woke up inconsolable. When he finally calmed down enough to talk he was looking around and asking for dada. My parents came to babysit today so I could go to yoga. They even did the dishes and cleaned up toys, which meant I could actually relax for a bit tonight. Tomorrow is going to be crazy busy. I should go to bed, but I've been putting it off because I hate sleeping by myself.
ourcrazynavylife ugh what shitty timing. Do you have an advisor or someone you can ask about how to work out the scheduling?
ourcrazynavylife as for delivering early or what not I had both kids on 39 weeks exactly and they were 22 months apart so no help from me. I was also on best rest with Max too so I had a whole lot less activity.

I only made it to 40 weeks once, and that was with my oldest. I was in nursing school with my second and delivered him (and coded during delivery) two days before my final. They made me come take it as scheduled anyway- I had to leave the hospital and go straight to school and STAND through a 2 hour exam because I was so swollen. Schedule it before your EDD. At least 2 weeks. If you wait, you will have a newborn and a toddler and if you have a section you will be hosed. My two cents.

So I'm unable to comment on this properly because I am going to deliver earlier but I'm being induced so it probably doesn't count. I did want to say that my advice would definitely be to schedule it for as early as possible and make sure they know your situation because I'm sure they'd be willing to be accommodating.
On a funny and somewhat related note, I am scheduled to swear in to the Rhode Island bar this coming Monday, which was my EDD, so I definitely understand the freaking out feeling. I hope you're able to negotiate something that works for your presentation!
