Almost there...Friday Randoms

[thelittleredm]

Morning!

Mini vent: If you take your car to the auto shop, specifically if it's attached to a dealership, understand that it's like going to the doctor. Just because your car may be taken back right away doesn't mean it gets looked at right away. It still has to wait its turn. BE PATIENT. If you can't be patient, find a ride.

I'm here. At work but don't feel like working.

NT scan and 12-week appointment is today! But first I have to deal with a ton of crap at work. One guy went on a 5-week vacation (props to him) but now I'm being expected to do his job, which was not the plan. So I've got to get into the details on a ton of stuff so our project leadership doesn't throw a fit and blame me even though the other guy is the one who made decisions unilaterally without telling anyone and didn't put in notes as to why he did certain things. It's a mess.

I have a new pirate cat.

[PirateCat]

I think he is wicked cute.

I decided not to go back to work today after my ultrasound. Soooo I'm going home to nap all afternoon and enjoy the fact that I have a healthy human growing inside me. 😊

Good plan!

My NT scan is in 20 minutes. I need to do a few things when I get home but I WFH on Fridays so not top bad.

Ugh today is no good. I slept like crap last night so today I'm super cranky. I just want to go home!!

[mustloveerica]

My mood is a little lifted. My work friend brought me a bunch of coats to try out for winter since I refuse to buy a new one and I already can't zip mine. They will at least last me a little while! (Hopefully)

[icedtea]

I had a massage scheduled for this afternoon that I've been eagerly awaiting since early in first tri...and it was canceled. I hopefully have a replacement tomorrow, but it made me grumpy. H and I are going to go out and have some us time, so that should help.

akraus2015, yay for healthy tiny humans!

[thelittleredm]

icedtea, Oh no! I'd be so upset about that kind of cancellation, I'd probably cry at this stage.

[icedtea]

thelittleredm and @wineandcupcakes , I teared up and only refrained from full crying because I had a work meeting. I appreciate that the woman didn't want me to get sick, but come on universe!

[icedtea]

@wineandcupcakes, pregnant and smart.

I am so freakin' tired today. Like as if I had pulled an all-nighter. Except I went to bed last night at 8:30. And probably even earlier the night before. I've been in a meeting all morning without breakfast, which then threw off my whole eating schedule and all I have had today are a muffin and a yogurt. And I got nothing done at work, between the long meeting, recapping said meeting to multiple people, replying to emails as follow-up to said meeting. I'm supposed to go out to dinner with H but I just want to go home and sleep.

15 more minutes of work and then weekend! Finally putting the dang ornaments on the tree after I get home, I procrastinated it literally all week.

Mom group/babywearing group meetup after dinner. Will be nice to socialize and let DS run around with other kids a bit.

I realized I really only have 3.5 weeks of work left. Holy shit.

[marshian]

Apparently baby is super low in my pelvis and they couldn't complete my NT scan even with the transvag probe. But nice heartbeat and she said she didn't see anything obviously concerning.

[silvermelody]

marshian that happened with DS. She kept asking me to cough and was rather violently jiggling my belly trying to get him to move up. He was head down too. She finally had me go pee and try again and was able to get the measurements but it was frustrating

Will they reschedule?

We poked and prodded. I go back in a week. I'm also just measuring 11 weeks so the baby is small. She said a week's growth will help.

My Cyber Monday deal arrived MUCH faster than expected. We can now officially bring babies home (but we'd really like them to keep cooking for a lot longer).
