It's really cold outside. Spring fever is setting in.
I think I have spring fever too. I spend my night feeding time on Pinterest coming up with projects for the house. I have huge urge to rip out our main bath and completely redo it. DH is on board for spring!

Had a fitful night of sleep since our auxiliary heat was on all night (it's 3 degrees outside here with huge gusts of wind). It also doesn't help that I'm freaking a bit about my induction stuff beginning Monday night. I should've asked more questions, mainly the medical reasoning behind it to help ease my mind about it being a necessary procedure. I have GD, but I've been monitoring it well with my diet and LO's been measuring normal. I know there are other reasons they likely have, but my mind's been running away with the thought that she could just come on her own.

I've been in labor all night 3-5min apart about 60-80s each. I called the doctor around 4am. He said as long as I'm comfortable, I can stay home to labor. They want me to wait until I can't walk or talk through contractions. DH and I are going to venture to the mall today to walk around and hope the contractions get more intense (they hurt like hell already). Oh, and get some clearance Gertrude Hawk Hopefully we'll have a baby today!

Today is my due date. No sign of her coming though it was really windy last night and I slept crappy so I'm in a really bad mood and all of a sudden DD has decided to not listen at all. Now they are predicting snow (which is a big deal in NC) Monday night into Tuesday so I'm convinced this means I'll go into labor then. Ugh I can't wait for all of this to be over!
@holachica, Yes, I am SO sick of the cold. Another blizzard last night through today. When I went to let the dogs out this morning they gave me a look that honestly said WTF woman, and would not go outside. I hope they don't have an accident in the house while they wait for my husband to snow blow the backyard for them!
I'm cranky today because yesterday I went to Target to buy some bras to sleep in. I've been an A cup my whole life. Now my boobs are huge and sore, and I bought medium size bras because they were for sizes that I assumed I was, in the C cup range. Well, turns out they are all way too small and are suffocating my boobs and making them hurt so bad. I need larges, which are for DDs and other large sizes that I have never even considered needing in my whole life. These boobs are SO out of control! I'm bummed I can't go out and get the bras today because of the blizzard. ENOUGH with the fucking snow. For real. And the single digit temperatures. I just need sunshine and warm weather, even if it's only for 10 minutes!
Good moooooorning! I think my hormones have me in a gushy wonderful mood today. We're blizzarded in again today with what, like 5 feet of snow on the ground? I made a nice healthy breakfast for myself, we had a great night last night, baby is eating well and slept contentedly, and my mom is coming tomorrow! I feel like I can handle my new life today. I also just swoon over the snuggles I get after the first morning feeding, when he just curls into my chest and falls back asleep. This mom this is pretty amazing.
Baby boy is snoozing in his mamaroo, and DH and I are watching the Godfather- I've never seen it, so this is exciting. Hope you all are having a good morning!

Heading into the hospital this evening for my induction. My allergies have kicked in and I barely have a voice right now. I think I'll be drinking a ton of hot tea today to try to help.

Waiting for DD to come home from the sperm donors house. Can't wait to celebrate Valentines Day with her! Despite sperm donor being a complete ass over me sending her flowers ect, she was surprised and really excited!
Maybe I'll go get a pedicure today while I wait for her to come home.

Had a pretty decent night over here. And we managed to get everything together and head out as a family to DD1s gymnastics class. I finally got to do it with her, so that was fun. However, the temperature is not fun. - 22 wtf??? That's not even with the wind chill!

Baby was literally up and alert 12-5 am. But then we got some brokem sleep 5-10 so we'll live. Hes killing it on the dirty diapers not sure why we only poop in the motn but he went every hour last night
Heading to the hospital to go see our little nugget. Her IV came out yesterday along with her NG tube. She is feeding well and hopefully she puts weight on really soon. I really want her home. It's so hard to be away from her.
Good luck to all the mommas meeting their LOs soon!
No good spam here really. It's cold as PPs have mentioned. My sis and BIL are still in visiting so we r gonna hang out again today. Yesterday on their drive in, they saw a 20+ car pile up happen on the other side of the highway due to white out conditions. It wasn't snowing, just windy and blowing across the fields. Crazy! I hope it's okay today on their drive home!

Good morning everyone!
I feel like if I talk about the weather here I may get shanked. My last doctor appointment is tomorrow, I need to come up with questions for my version/induction/hopefully vbac. I have so many and I always think I will remember, then I get there and go dumb. Luckily DH is coming with me so we can get the rundown so if I tell him my questions too he'll remember.
I'm working today and my last day is tomorrow and it's only a few hours! Going to take DD shoe shopping, Stride Rite is BOGO 50% and she outgrew all her shoes over winter haha. They have light up Rapunzel shoes, I have a feeling those are in my future.
I hate taxes. Like really. DH is doing ours and again we freaking owe money.
We have good jobs and no deductions. Ugh... I'm pissed.
I hate it. Since we got married we have never gotten a refund.
Same here! Luckily our state refund more than covers it, but still. I'm glad this is the last year we'll be DINKs. Hopefully we'll actually get a fed refund starting next year.

In Louisiana here so we owe them too but it's like $100.
Add me to the tax list. We've received a small refund the past few years but currently owe $2500 as DH is still doing the charitable contributions part. I worked an entire year full-time in 2014 (haven't been FT since 2008 due to layoff, went back to school, baby), lost all school-related deductions, and DH got a considerable raise. All good things, just wasn't expecting to write a big check when I'm about to go out on semi-paid mat leave.
Parents are driving me nuts- calling "just to check on me." Yep- had a baby and totes forgot to tell you since yesterday. I'll see you at 6am tomorrow to drop off DS as I'm working.
I love answering the "when are you due?" by saying "FRIDAY!" and watching the horror on people's faces. hehe
