DS spiked to 103F at daycare yesterday, diagnosed with an ear infection, DH has been away all week on business, baby girl is still definitely BUTT down.... so I had Dunkin' munchkins for breakfast. #noregrets

Bring on the weekend!!!! Hope you all have a great Friday

jmcbick Aw, I hope he's feeling better soon! And enjoy the munchkins, I could go for a box right now.

I had an OB appointment and was measuring size greater than date so now I have a growth ultrasound on Tuesday. I went through all this with DS1 so I know the routine, but I guess my hopes of an -9lb baby just went out the window! Oh well, I got a big guy out once so I can certainly do it again!

I also got a haircut that I don't really like. *shrugs* Luckily it grows fast!

DS has been so whiney these last couple days and it's really draining me. I just want to sleep.

[lupincat]

txcatlady Have fun!!

BabyStandish I hear you on the sleep. I could easily sleep for the next 9 weeks.

[lastkiss]

jmcbick I hope your DS feels better soon. You deserve donuts!

txcatlady have fun at your shower!

I feel you on the sleep BabyStandish. I've been exhausted this week.

DS has been off this week too. He had early bedtimes the past two days and went straight to sleep both nights which is super unusual for him.

TGIF. I'm over work so I'm basically wishing my life away for the weekends until this baby comes

I called my MFM this morning to let them know that my MF started me on meds for my GD this week....not I'm on weekly appointments...blah

I've also been stressing out about DD1's new joint pain.....of course I googled and it is a complication of rheumatic fever....and then she felt better this morning....and I couldn't get through the nurses line.....so now I feel like a paranoid mom or a slacker mom....booo

34 week appointment today. Everything is on target. BP, weight, fundal growth all exactly where we want it to be and baby is head down. Really boring appointment, but boring is good right now. Got to meet the other MW that will be managing my care (my primary MW is also pregnant and due about a week before me). Dropped off my birth plan, MW says it looks good and I should be able to get what I want if all goes well (mostly, don't push meds, I don't want them, I really don't want an epidural unless for some reason I absolutely need a c-section, and I want to hang out in the bath tub as much as allowable, including a water birth if feasible). So we're getting into the home stretch!

It's Friday, almost over, and I've been in meetings more than half the day. Wheeee.

jennyelf, +1 to the 34 week appointment today, but my baby is breech like jmcbick. Annoying because at my 28 week ultrasound he was head down and by the 32 week he had flipped up, WTF. Even though I have a RCS scheduled I still hope he turns, DD was breech and ended up in a brace for her first few months due to a loose hip. I know that doesn't happen with every breech baby and yeah there are worse things than a loose hip, but just really don't want to go through it again.

Today was a great day. DS has come back to me. He is feeling better and is my sweet boy for the most part. He still can get whiny but he isn't the defiant screaming child I had at the start of the week. He must be finally feeling better.
We got to have a family day and made a fort in the living room and took a walk around the neighborhood. I've also had time to work on a bunch of my craft projects. Very full and productive day. If only I could only convince myself to finish our taxes....

FFFC: I'm annoyed and somewhat angry that I won't get to experience labor ever again. A scheduled c/s seems to have taken some of the ssurpris and anticipation out of this pregnancy. Stupid to be annoyed/angry about but I was reading birth stories on the pregnancy board and now I am all mopey about it.

Not flameworthy at all, I think I would feel the same way if I was in the same position. I wish I had some words of comfort but you're allowed to feel your feelings about it! Either way, your birth will still be unique to you and baby

Add me to the 34-wk appt club. LO is measuring btw 35-36 weeks and doctor estimates will be around 8.5lbs. I have officially gained the same amount of weight as I did last pregnancy. Trying not to beat myself up since DD was about 2lbs smaller than this guy should be. Turns out that the doctor who was supposed to do my RCS had a schedule change and now there are only male doctors operating my delivery week 😠 I'm prob more irritated than should be.

It's not stupid. I have similar feelings about facing another induction and already being "prepped" for a possible c/s. It's frustrating when things are taken out of your hands. Give yourself room for your feelings and try to remember that your birth is special too, even if it doesn't go the way you had wanted
