Went for the ultrasound. Everything looks good. They said most likely it's nothing, could have been a small sub-uteran hemorrhage (I think) that ruptured, which is normal. Baby boy is feet down (no wonder I feel those kicks so low!!) and est. 1 pound 9 oz. Crazy how he doesn't fit all in one screen anymore!
I am hitting a wall. DS was up from 3am-4am begging to watch PJ Masks (his current obsession)this was after waking up at 130 and wanting me to lay with him. The worst part I have to work until at least 6pm because my VP scheduled a 5pm to 6pm meeting. I just want a nap!

I took a car nap yesterday out of desperation on a break and it was glorious.
@pianolove I'm sorry. Friend break-ups are the worst. But it does sound like she doesn't really deserve your time/friendship. I don't understand how people can be so selfish.

Hugs @pianolove, breaking up with friends is super hard.
I did that about 7 years ago with my best friend of 10+ years. On my birthday. I always think of how it all went down every year when my birthday rolls around.
I was laying on the couch and went to get up, which used my abs. H was like "whoa, that's weird." Baby girl is left of my belly button so my bump was totally lopsided and weird looking, haha.

@pianolove sorry girl! That's so hard. Especially when as mom's it's so hard to keep up with friends. With you trying and her blowing you off like that is just wrong.
Is anyone else having behavioral issues with their other kids? I feel like ever since we told DD about the baby, even though she says she is excited, she has had a regression in her behavior. She has started throwing epic tantrums again, and there is no calming her down. She is 7 and a half btw. So this hasn't happened in a long while. I don't have the patience right now either. So that doesn't help things. It's just so frustrating. And I feel like there are only so many things I can take away from her. We were supposed to go have dinner with a friend tonight and I stupidly told her that I'd take that away if she didn't do what she was told. She didn't. So now I have to follow through and I'm majorly bummed because now I have to cook and stay home and I don't get to see my friend either.
I'm considering changing doctors this late in the game. I switched to a private practice from a group office thinking it would be more personal, but actually it's not! I really don't like the doctor even though he has a great reputation. This morning he was in the room with me less than five minutes, and it only took that long because I made small talk! With my last office, they showed me charts and numbers, I knew exactly how the baby was growing, etc. this time he just says everything's fine. That's it. Maybe it's a weird thing to complain about, but I just really don't like him. And I know when I bring up my umbilical cord concerns he's going to write them off completely. In order to switch over though I have to go into my new office and ask them to release info to the old which sounds horribly confrontational to this wimp! 😬

I would switch back if you liked the old better. You are just going to be seeing them more frequently at this point and you want to have that personal experience. I love my OB but hate her new program but I deal because I get the personal attention from her that I desire through this process.
Asking for the record transfer may be uncomfortable but it will be worth it in the long run if you aren't happy.

@pianolove I asked the driver and assistant if anything had happened that would put him off riding the bus but they said nothing had happened. He rides the bus with only a few other special needs kids and he is harnessed to his seat and closely supervised. He has refused to ride the morning bus every day this week. Yesterday and today I was able to get my mom to bring him to school and he rode the afternoon bus home without incident. There is a different driver and assistant in the afternoon. I really wish I could figure out what is going on. Did something on the morning bus upset him but the driver and assistant didn't notice? Are they lying to me and something did happen? Does he just not want to leave me? I have asked him and all he can tell me is "no bus" and "bye bye bus". He is off for 4 days because of the holiday so I am hoping when he goes back maybe he will have forgotten why he doesn't want to ride it.
I am sorry to hear about your friend. I have grown apart from some of my single friends since I got married and became a mom but have a few I am still good friends with. It really sucks that your friend didn't want to make it work.

Sorry you are going through that with your DD MissSally. Sounds really rough. My DS doesn't understand that he is getting a sibling so I have been trying to focus on generating enthusiasm for babies which seems to be working. I think it is going to be a whole different ball game once she is actually here and it makes me really nervous. I think it will be a really difficult adjustment for him especially with how unpredictable babies can be and he won't understand why she cries or why she is taking so much of my attention.

Sorry you are still under the weather Willy! Hope you feel better soon.
I am doing my glucose test now. They told me when I showed up at the lab it is the 2 hour test! Kinda pissed because I wish my midwife would have told me that and I don't know why they aren't giving me the 1 hour one first. I didn't have GD last time.

I stopped for a smoothie and soup this morning at Wawa. The guy behind the food counter was training two other new employees. Noticed my belly, and said "oh the smoothing is for this expectant mommy. I hope you have a good delivery"

My Saint Bernard took a massive shit in the laundry room. It's every where. It made me gag so bad I peed myself. I've been waiting for DH to get home because I just can't do it. DH gets home and says I don't even know what to do! I might have to suck his dick tonight.
