iiiiiiiit's Friday!

[Winnifred]

TMI but I'm currently wondering if my MP is making it's way out. I noticed a little light brown spotting last night and it's picked up today - pretty much what I would have had pre-period. At first I thought it was just my cervix being irritated from the check yesterday, but I'm thinking that's not the case now. Let's hope it's progress!

Winnifred, when my cervix gets checked, the blood afterwards is a bit more red than brownish-red, so you could be right! Just keep an eye on the spotting and if it becomes more than spotting, call your midwife/doctor/labor and delivery.

I slept GREAT last night. Best night of sleep I've had in awhile. I slept so great that I slept through my alarm. Luckily my sister called at 7:30 and I managed to get dressed and out the door in 10 minutes (thank God for casual Friday) and made it to work on time.

DH is taking DS Christmas shopping for my gifts today. He ordered the Adidas hidden wedge sneakers I've been wanting last night. That's my big gift this year so I'm really excited!

[Winnifred]

kaydee0402, thanks! Those are my plans, exactly. We'll see what happens as the day goes on. And I'm sorry you slept through your alarm but that's awesome that you got such a great night's sleep!! I'm always torn between wanting to get up because I'm uncomfortable and realizing that my bed is my favorite place and I'm fairly comfortable compared to the couch, lol.

Do we need a newborn pic thread or can I just be a HUGE AW here?

[kaydee0402]

mrsp121308, I don't think people will care either way. We want to see the squish!

[Winnifred]

mrsp121308, show us your pictures!!!!

[Winnifred]

Man our internet just went out briefly so now I need to retype:

Baby is really trying hard to exit my stomach through the front. DH leaned in really close to her this morning and told her firmly to GO DOWN. There is no exiting through my belly button.

I spent some time on my exercise ball last night and did some squats. When will she get the message?

Wide awake last night, spoiler cause huge

Waiting. DH is supposed to bring Leo this morning to meet his baby brother. Plus I need some hugs. Haven't seen him since Tues morning.

[littlelion]

And my sister is visiting this afternoon and bringing lunch.

Everything looks good with my bp so I think we'll be discharged tomorrow morning.

[kaydee0402]

littlelion, adorable!

[Winnifred]

littlelion, SO CUTE! I feel like he's very confused by the weird object you are holding above his face, lol (aka phone).

littlelion, too cute!

So middle school Shakespeare(Twelfth Night) was exactly as awful as I thought it would be and I get to sit through it again today! It was going pretty well, the 80s theme was even working until we got to the second half and it was like they hadn't really rehearsed it as much as the first. I'll have to investigate today but I think some kid missed his lines because the kids running the lights and sounds were freaking out at something in the middle of the second half. I need to make sure I take my jacket to sit on as a pillow though, the metal folding chair was no bueno for 2 hours.

mrsp121308, littlelion, I demand more pics! Okay, I'll ask nicely: pretty please??

kaydee0402, um those sneakers look amazing!

[Winnifred]

Guys I have a confession today - baby girl has an insane amount of headbands. I can't stop buying them! We already had too many and then I bought these on Etsy:

I bought a set of three. Oops.

And I'm also bringing a few to the hospital, like a total FTM who cannot wait to dress up her little girl. Ugh, I need to chill out.

legalbeagle, did you have to get rid of your avatar pic because of the intellectual property stuff? That's sad, it was so cute.

[littlelion]

Winnifred headbands are super freaking adorable. do you have a plan on how to store or show off the headbands? One of the j15 moms did something really cute with some ikea hooks along a wall.

Oh that's a good idea! Currently, I've tossed them all in this little gold sparkly fabric basket I found in the dollar section at target. I'll have to think about potentially putting them out, though!

[tbonequeen13]

At the NST today, the heartbeat was way lower than it has been, so we're hoping that means she's finally gone back to head down (the dr wasn't in to do an ultrasound so that was just the educated guess of the nurse). I am super crampy today so I'm hoping that's a sign that things are about to happen- I am so beyond ready for this kid to come already!

[requiressnacks]

SO cute littlelion!!!

The babies were up all night. 💤💤

DH just called to tell me he's working all weekend. 😖🔫

I currently have both babies in the Ktan and I'm drinking coffee. Even if I can't nap....I'm enjoying the peace and quiet. I just ordered a Moby wrap on Amazon

Haha. I wondered that too!

[mrsp121308]

I'm going to be an AW, sorry

[Deleted]

mrsp121308, those photos are amazing! I love the first one with the three girls, and the one in the fire hat is just so sweet!

[Winnifred]

mrsp121308, those photos are so precious!!!! Your little family is adorable!!!

@kc295905, I'm sorry, hope you're feeling better soon! My DH has banned me from bringing the vacuum up or down any stairs.

[lbonga1]

Adorable pics mrsp121308!

My girls are with their grandparents today since FI and I both had doctors appointments this morning. MIL calmed her crazy a bit and decided to take them to have pictures done with Santa, so hopefully those turn out cute. My OB checked me again today and said I'm about 3 cm dilated, so she's hoping we both make it to the hospital on time. I feel like he's going to fall out! I need to spend a lot of time on homework this weekend just in case something happens. My OB said I seem pretty calm for someone who's finishing up a semester and about to have a baby lol.

[hmr11913]

Omg.... those girls are adorable!

littlelion I love how alert he is looking at his mommy

requiressnacks can you wear them both at the same time? You go girl! Sorry that you didn't get much sleep and DH will be gone this weekend. It's tough with a toddler and a newborn, I can't imagine 2 newborns!

I can't remember if I posted this one from N's shoot the other day... so here it is and a family friend made her a quilt with her birth details - just as she had done for G... soooo adorable!

[legalbeagle]

@cahistoryteacher, yeah I need to find a new one!

[legalbeagle]

hmr11913, mrsp121308 LOVE LOVE LOVE.
