I'm restless and feel like moving all the furniture in the house. Does anyone get these itches? I'm setting up Christmas stuff and am waiting for H to bring up the last big heavy box so I can set up our little Christmas village. I already wrapped all the presents too, so... Christmas is basically done.
Gurl, you nesting.
Yep, nesting. I've been getting rid of stuff left and right this pregnancy. Today I've cleaned off our desk and rearranged our mudroom.
I have been MIA lately...my poor girl is still sick. Her ear infection came back after a week on antibiotics. She hardly ate anything for 5 days which really freaked me out. Now she's been on her new antibiotics since Wed and is still fussy, grabbing her ears, and had a low grade fever today. Oh and she has diarrhea from the antibiotics. I'm hoping things improve tomorrow so we don't have to go to the after hours clinic. It's so hard to feel so useless to my kiddo. I'm getting tons of snuggles and it's not like she's totally miserable but I just wish I could fix this for her. At least it's happening while we're off so we can be here for her.
False alarm for my friend, booo. She's kinda scared cuz she was in labor for 4 days w her son
Hoooooooly moly at 4 days! Hopefully the whole "2nd babies come faster" thing is true for your friend.
She got sent home 3 times! So she's trying to avoid that, although with all her symptoms I don't blame her for being paranoid. MW said it's all normal for second babies to be teased the last month... lost mucus plug, vag discharge, upset stomach, timed contractions that fizzle off... can't wait 😒

That's a bunch of shit that 2nd babies tease. With DS I lost my mucus plug the day after thanksgiving and didn't go into labor for 5 more days. Granted it was 4 weeks early still but I felt like that was a bit of a tease.
Because of the long weekend I can't shake the feeling that today is Monday. I keep expecting to get a phone call from work asking me why I'm not there.
I can't tell if I'm hormonal and cranky or my H is being an ass today or a little of both but I'm about to rage on him. I just told him to go play golf so he'll live me alone for a while
I feel like this is me on a regular basis these days which is why I'm pretty sure it's just hormones for me (at least I hope so)!

Pregnancy makes me on and off resent my husband for existing. I love that guy with all my heart and can objectively look back and see that he was doing nothing wrong, so for me it's definitely hormones.
I skipped dinner and slept 14 hours. I feel like a new person. It's official, I can't eat out anymore. I'm not sure if it's extra oil or butter, but I puke if I don't stick to bland things like cereal, PB and J, plain pasta.
Ah! Glad to be back in the land of the living. Sorry for all the complainy posts.

DH and I went to a football game today. I can tell the baby must be keeping me warm - I'm usually the first to be miserable and cold sitting outside, but DH was freezing way before I felt cold.

I'm irrationally pissed H brought home the biggest f-ing Xmas tree!!! It's in the waaaaay. I'm counting down till it's gone. It's made me unmotivated to decorate the rest of the house... grinch over here
I HAVE A NURSERY! The small, angry, pot smoking man who has been slowly slapping sheetrock to our walls has finished the nursery and our living room. He's even started in the dining room. I need to slap one more coat of paint on the walls, clean the room and all the trim, then haul the nasty old carpet out.
And the baby will have a room. The living room needs a coat of primer, then some color, and we'll have a full living room again. I can decorate for Christmas!
The dinning room will take a few more weeks, and if the small, angry, pot smoking man gets it sheetrocked, my dad has offered to come out and mud it all since that's the most time consuming part of it. Then we can have CARPET. And the inside of our house wont be colored like the outside of a sod house.

This weekend is over and I am not mad. DH's grandpa did his Christmas dinner tonight and between the room we were in being hot and my head starting to get stuffy, I about passed out in front of everyone. At least I think those were the causes. I had a couple of similar episodes with ds so it's hard telling. I'm home on the couch in comfy with water for the rest of the night. Dh's orders.
He already had to deal with a little girl who passed out during church so he definitely doesn't want to have his pregnant wife do the same.
Glad you didn't pass out and you're getting to relax now, erinshelley21! Well baby girl gets to go back to the dr again tomorrow morning (5th visit in 2.5 weeks). Her temp was mostly stable today, went up to 101 tonight so I gave her advil and DH will go into work late tomorrow so he can take her. She's in good spirits still but really digging at her ear off and on. I wish I could stay home to take her. My job has amazing flexibility and perks, but last minute staying home just isn't an option since then they'd have to cancel about 30 patients.
