erinshelley21 sorry you didn't pass the 3 hour I may be sitting on your bench too, I'll find out hopefully Monday or Tuesday next week. Tomorrow I begin my special diet (have to make sure I get 150 carbs a day for 3 days, followed by an 8 hour fast, then go in for the test- is that what you had to do too?)

Nope. An 8 hour fast sounds like a dream.
I didn't get any special diet instructions. I just had to fast for 10-12 hours before the test started. I was closer to 12 (because I really couldn't remember if she gave me the 10-12 range or just 12 on the phone) so I ended up not eating for close to 16 hours. When I got there they took my fasting sugar, I had to wait for that to get tested which took about 45 minutes to make sure I was okay to do the test, then I was handed the drink and that's when the actual 3 hour test began. So, the 3 hour test is actually 4 hours. Liars.

I did a bunch of stuff from my to-do list, yay! Here's hoping my turkey baby of a toddler didn't take a mini nap at preschool so I can nap this afternoon, too. She seems to have a sixth sense of when I would most appreciate the rest and ruins it, though.
ladytiffany24 , I'm sorry about your uncle but happy anniversary!
I passed my glucose test! Baby was measuring large and both my docs were asking if I had taken it yet so I was getting a little nervous so I'm excited about the good results.
I have anatomy lab this afternoon and have to stand and bend over a cadaver for hours. It is miserable.
edit: so I wrote the post then posted much later. Sorry erinshelley21 about the GD news Hopefully it will be pretty easy to manage and not have any other affects.
All of my sorries about that lab. I loathed them not pregnant, can't imagine having to do them with a big belly. :/
So, my grandma gifted us a set of furniture for the baby. This is great but we have a funny situation; grandma bought a twin size bed "for the baby to sleep on".
I'm keeping it but I can't stop laughing. She really thought we would put the baby in a twin bed. I just, that's proof that you forget what babies are like.

It's not unheard of for people to do floor beds for their very young babies now.

Not me, I'm all about a crib.
That's true, but she's not a floor bed person. She was expecting a fully set up bed.
She also thinks I'm crazy because I didn't send DS to the hospital nursery(there wasn't one anyway). Just today we had that conversation again. Things were...different 60 years ago.

Apparently my grandma was put into twilight sleep and she remembers nothing between getting to the hospital and waking up with a baby. She was surprised that wasn't done anymore.
I feel the weird rage-iness mosdub - MIL called around dinner time and when she heard we were eating take out asked DH if I wasn't getting home in time to cook for him. Normally I would just laugh and roll my eyes and remind myself she's ridiculous. But instead I got mad at her when he told me, and I'm still salty about it.
At least you have a reason to be salty lol - my SIL called and I got pissed for no reason. HOW DARE YOU CALL ME!!!
I think this is the first time I'm feeling slightly out of control with these emotions lol. I'll get it together.

My grandma said to me last time, "did they strap you for the table?"
Me: Ummm...no they did not. Grandma: Oh wow that's great! I remember when they strapped us to the table
glb30 we were totally spoiled by November's mild weather! At least the roads were much better when I left work.
mosdub my classes have weekly discussion prompts too, but I figured out how to view the topic ahead of time. I'm writing my original reply in Google doc and then pasting it each week. Not sure if you can do that or not.
We get participation credit for responding to others' posts too, so I'll have to come back anyway to respond to what other people post So I can do some of the work ahead of time, but ultimately can't fully check-out once I get the work done.

Thats how my classes are too. I'm hoping baby girl sits tight, my classes end March 9. She can come anytime between then and due date (in order to qualify for tuition reimbursement I had to take classes that end before my leave... So I doubled up the first half of semester....Only to find out I won't get reimbursement for 6 of the 8 credits
OH DANG. I didn't consider not getting tuition reimbursement since I'll be on leave - I assumed since I'm still under contract I'll be covered... yikes I hope that doesn't come back to bite me.
Mine doesn't end until April 29, and my EDD is April 1, so unfortunately I just have to do the class even with the craziness of the baby. H will be home to help, so hopefully I can sneak away and at least participate a little and get some credit.
@justinslovo my H is obsessed with zit popping. He would pursue an ass zit so hard. Sometimes he is like "DUDE you have a huge zit on your neck" and I have to scream "DONT TELL ME THAT" because then it bothers me until it is gone lol
Speaking of pregnancy rage, my H just burped really loudly and it just made me so angry and annoyed that I had to stop talking to him for a while there. I'm still kind of annoyed. Like, burps can be muffled, you don't have to scream that shit out so it's echoing the walls. Seriously.

Damn......
My grandma also was also in twilight sleep. So much of her birth/hospital days arebjust unimaginable to me. She told me she only spent a few hours with the baby while she was there. The nurses did everything else and she accepts that as the norm. It was for her though.
We also pretty recently explained that you can be conscious and have a pain free birth. She thought that women all did pain-med free births unless they had a c-section. When SIL explained her epidural grandma was blown away.

I swear I'm trying to break my phone. I'm normally pretty klutzy but I drop it 6 times a day now. Is this something I can blame on pregnancy? I probably will anyway.

I've read that butterfingers are a common pregnancy thing. They definitely are for me. I drop everything. And then i stare at the fallen object on the floor because I can't bend down anymore.
