Congrats, Winnifred !

Happy birthday, requiressnacks !

I spent the morning wrapping presents because I've been too tired to stay up past the kids bedtime to wrap them with H. I got about 2/3 of them done while Cora napped -- although the first part of her nap was spent in my lap before she allowed me to transfer her to the swing. I also attempted to pull out the activity gym mat thingy. Lucy (the dog, not me!) is very confused about why we put the hairless puppy on her new bed. 

This afternoon Cora and I are headed to the kids school for their holiday parties. I'm hoping Cora sleeps in the wrap the whole time we're there. 

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve in our house -- Santa comes a day early since we're going to my stupid MIL's house Saturday AM after breakfast.

crimpgirl, good luck! I think I'd be pushing for induction at that point also. I hope it all goes smoothly for you and you have your sweet baby out soon!

[mrswillie]

Good luck crimpgirl. If they induce, which I think they will, I hope everything goes smoothly and quickly.

crimpgirl I hope everything is ok and baby gets here safely. Sounds like you will have a baby for Christmas!

I had lost hope on that! But it could happen. I just want him safe. This is the third growth ultrasound in a row that he's dropped in percentile. I'm really hoping the OB wants him out too

Good luck, it does sound like it's best for baby. Hope all goes smoothly even without yet being dilated.

Guys, mastitis sucks. It started this morning with a tiny bit of tenderness in my breast and VERY quickly turned into me feeling like I have the full blown flu. My joints ache (especially my knees?), I'm freezing cold under 3 blankets with the house at 72, and I have a 101 fever. Waiting for the OB to call in my antibiotic because I seriously cannot imagine feeling this way for Christmas

crimpgirl, omg....don't leave me..sigh. I am so happy that things are moving, sorry not the way as planned. BUT he will be here before you know it!! Then there was 4 on the bench..what the what...

Lucy, lmao why is the hairless puppy getting my new dog bed.

@acrhomia omg you poor thing, I hope that she will get better at sleeping for you! Lots of good ju ju towards her and the bassinet.

littlelion wipe bath is totally the same thing as a bath. ITs not like he is walking around.

harfamilyof3 , ahhhh I had this...sorry hope you get meds VERY SOON!

Update #2

My doctor needs to discuss with the OB, but baby boy has dropped to 3rd percentile and fluid is getting lower.

She wants to induce. I didn't want that, but I want him out before he goes into distress. So we are likely getting that started today since he's full term now.

I wish I was dilated at least a little though

Sorry about being induced! I delivered because baby A had no fluid. I was so relieved when he was out and healthy.

What do I get my dad's girlfriend for Christmas that isn't a candle? I totally blanked.

I got a pedi set for my dads gf. It incl the Bliss foot cream plus those gel lined socks to make your feet soft.

crimpgirl,good luck! I hope everything goes well!

[requiressnacks]

You guys are really good at generic, last minute gifts.

Thanks!

I swear my left thigh is bigger than my right...noticeably. I feel so lumpy.

Uggh, I just got a note from hr that my tb test is about to expire and I have to get it done by Feb 1! Yeah, that's not gonna happen. Hopefully since I'll be on leave they'll give me an extension. Why they can't tell you this with more than 6 weeks notice is beyond me.

Cora was festive for the kids holiday parties at school... not that anyone saw her since she spent the entire time in the Moby. The tail of the hat hung out of the Moby like a scarf.

[mrswillie]

harfamilyof3 I hope the antibiotic helps quickly.

I can picture WineNChocolate reading crimpgirl update and saying oh hell no! I will NOT be the last to go while popping more dates in her mouth. Haha!!

requiressnacks wine??

Hahahahahahahaa you know me to well. I cam home after my acupuncture and stuffed two dates in my mouth. Eating pineapple for desert. In her defense she is ahead of me. Lol. I am just being impatient.

[WineNChocolate]

crimpgirl just wait till he gets here..all the hormones...bubbling snotty crying. With dd it was like..."she's so beautiful...**all the tears**"

[lola]

Winnifred Yay! Congrats!

crimpgirl Good luck. I'll be thinking happy thoughts for you and baby boy. Definitely sounds like this is what's best for baby.

[lastnamewithheld]

Winnifred what a peanut!! She's precious!!! congratulations!!!

Happy (belated now) birthday, requiressnacks!!

achromia, mmmm bed. I've been camped on the couch just because it's easier on my incision vs climbing into my big comfy bed. I hope you enjoy your bed a little bit for me so I can be vicariously comfortable through you!

harfamilyof3 ugh that sounds awful. I hope you get your antibiotic and feel better soon!

Good luck crimpgirl!!

Hi everyone! Im trapped (??) under a sleeping baby and he let me finish a post finally!! I miss you all, but I'm lurking around more often than not lol.

[WineNChocolate]
