I was woken up by the dog at 2am from a storm and couldn't fall back asleep until after 5 (when I stopped looking at the clock). So tired. Also dreamt I went into the office today and our project had been cancelled completely. Whatever happens today can't be worse than that.
I woke up with a sore throat and feeling a bit crummy and I'm hoping I'm not coming down with something. We're heading out of town tomorrow afternoon but I have a lot of work I need to get done by then and I also don't want to be sick while we are traveling.
Catching up but I made DH sleep at home numerous nights - including the night they started the pre-induction. He's useless without good sleep and I didn't want that stress. However, we only live 1.5 miles from the hospital.
I am so not motivated to do any work today. I had to come in at 7:30 to start this Snapchat takeover thing, and I neverrrrrr get up this early. It's not even 8:30 yet and my coffee is already all gone.

How far is your house from the hospital?? As long as we don't stay more than a day or so, I'm thinking H will just stay with me and we'll have my sister watch Lou, because the birthing center is almost an hour from our house, with no traffic.
Not far at all. Maybe 15 minutes. He would be at home for 2 hours or so to play with the dogs, eat breakfast, etc. He went in the morning after we fed the babies. I'd go back to sleep for a couple hours while he was gone. But it was close enough I felt comfortable with him leaving a couple hours at a time.
Granted I only had 1 baby but MH did the same one day. Went home, showered and got sweats for that night and moved the dog from our neighbor's house to a "kennel".
So, DS's daycare teacher will only call him by his last name. Not "first name, last name," just "last name." It drives me absolutely batty. Now, the other kids are taking to call him "last name" 😒
Am I being irrational in wanting to tell her she is not to call him solely by his last name? He has another classmate with the same given name but that one goes by the popular nickname and never by his actual given name. DS answers to his given name or the less popular nickname, never to the common one.
Don't quote.. his name is Ja.mes. He'll answer to either Ja.mes or Ja.mie. The other Ja.mes answers solely to Ji.mmy. He's never called Ja.mes, not even by his parents
I had a breakfast bar I was going to eat for breakfast, but every time I would try to take a bite Ridley would cry. She wanted the whole thing for herself. I got like two bites and she tried to take them out of my mouth.
Heading to my 6wk check up today already, thankfully grandma is coming over to cuddle the babies while I'm gone.
My bf went home every night when I was in the hospital and came been the next morning. We lived 40 minutes away, have a dog and my 8 year old son who needed to go to school. It was actually nice to not hear his snoring

I'm in a suck sucky mood this morning. I'm hoping after coffee this changes. I'm skipping yoga this morning since I don't think I have the energy to do that and the grocery store. Plus we are running tonight at our brewery so I'd rather do that. We are going out of town tomorrow so I need to buy snacks for the road trip. It's 4-5 hours so it shouldn't be too bad. As long as DS sleeps through most of it lol.

hpnegirl you are the customer. If you want her to call DS "your highness" all day, she should do it. WTF to using his last name like he's a tiny FBI agent.
Re: husband staying overnight. I let mine go home. Buuuut with DS my induction started Friday night and he wasn't born until Sunday at 3am. DH was there all day Saturday and didn't go home until 6am. I let him go home Friday night because I wanted him well rested.
This time around we had a toddler and was a scheduled C-section. He was there the whole day, then went home for dinner and bedtime/overnight.
The key is what *you* want. I was perfectly happy with the above. Not everyone would be.
TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5.

I'm so annoyed. We didn't put down 20% when we bought our house so we've been paying PMI. We were always told we could request PMI removal when we reached 80% LTV based on the original value of the house, as long as the value hadn't decreased when we requested the PMI removal.
Well, we're barely over the 80% now so I called the bank yesterday to figure out what I was going to have to do and the lady told me we'll need a new appraisal (not surprising) and that the LTV will need to be 75%. WTF???
The other option is to wait for PMI to terminate automatically which isn't until the month LTV reaches 78% based on the ORIGINAL amortization schedule, which does not account for all the extra principal we've paid and isn't until April 2019.
R started crying so I didn't get to dig in a much as I wanted to, so I'll have to call back again, but I'm pissed right now. Don't send me an "Annual Notice of PMI" that says 80% to then tell me 75% on the phone 2 days later.
I think I am getting sick. I'm gonna have a bit of coffee and see if that helps.
My phone is 3 years old and permanently out of storage, it seemed, even though I hardly keep anything on there anymore. I just uninstalled and reinstalled a bunch of apps and freed up a lot of space.

onesweetworld I missed all of your excitement last night! How are you feeling today? (Haven't read the entire thread yet so ignore me if you posted about it)

We are going through this, too. I think your HUD docs have to say the PMI requirements and they can't change those (unless it says they can on some loan doc you signed), so maybe take a look at those docs andcall back with ammo to fight back!!

I'm giggling at "tiny FBI agent". Hehe.
It's actually an accurate term for him! 😂 he's got such a bad case of FOMO and has to investigate everything.
I think I am getting sick. I'm gonna have a bit of coffee and see if that helps. *snip*
All week I've felt my left tonsil swollen. No other symptoms which is so annoying. I heard a lot about this secret menu item at STBX that is called the Medicine Ball. It's now part of the regular menu. But it sounds like it would help. 2 types of tea, steamed lemonade and some honey I think. I'm going to try it later if I find it at the Target stbx.
With DS, H stayed with me both nights. He went home once (5 minutes away) to shower and install the car seat base after DS was freshly changed and fed. I had a hard time getting up out of bed so he did all the changing during that time.
This time around, he'll also be staying, but we're pushing to leave at the 24 hour mark pending no issues this time around. We have help coming to watch DS while in the birth center (state mandates at 24 hour stay post-birth for vaginal births). The center is about 45 minutes away though so we'll be bringing the car seat with us this time 😅
I had a breakfast bar I was going to eat for breakfast, but every time I would try to take a bite Ridley would cry. She wanted the whole thing for herself. I got like two bites and she tried to take them out of my mouth.
I hide from my 2 yo when I eat something I don't want to share. My husband thinks it's mean but momma needs to eat too!

I was in the hospital maybe 5 days. Dh would go home each day. On the last day he brought the car seat and even remembered to bring the infant insert. We got the baby strapped in, waiting to be wheeled out and realize he had no blankets. This was in December, on a very cold day. I ended up swiping hospital sheets.

Lately, mine's been after my ice cream that I'm eating...
He's really cute about it and thinks that if he says "more more" while signing he'll get more.. it usually works
