I'm so tired this morning, like stayed up all night (except I didn't) and can't keep my eyes open tired. I haven't been drinking coffee at work since getting pregnant but I may need some today.

I have an endo appt later this morning and then might take DS to the park after to burn off some energy. I'm attempting black coffee this morning. I'm hoping my heartburn behaves itself. I've been making cappuccinos lately since they go down better.
We met our baby yesterday! A girl, who looks just like her big sister! I'm bummed she wasn't able to meet her yesterday because kids under 5 can't visit due to a measles outbreak. We'll be going home later today though. I'll update with birth story after we're settled in!
Me: 32, Wife: 38, Together for 5 years, Married for 2 years IUI #1 (8/2016): Letrozole, Ovidrel, Crinone = BFN IUI #2 (9/2016): Letrozole, Ovidrel, Endometrin = BFP!! EDD 5/26/17
Today we have DS's 3 month review with early intervention. I've also made an audiology appointment for him just to make sure his ears aren't filled with fluid since he's still not saying anything.
After his review I fully plan on taking a nap and letting H and DS fend for themselves.
I successfully got the big girls to daycare this morning with little sis coming along for the ride. Whew. Taking it easy today because DH isn't sure if he'll be back in time for dance class duty.
I had a three diaper change 5 am...pee, with immediate poop with being peed on while putting the next clean diaper on....so thankful I'm using protector pads since we're cosleeping and I'm changing her on our bed!
Hi everyone! I've been mostly MIA taking care of my little one but he is sleeping now so wanted to pop in. Things are going pretty well here except that I had to go to my doctor yesterday because of really bad nipple pain and ended up being diagnosed with both thrush and mastitis, ugh. I am on two types of pills and have a nipple cream too, so now am just waiting for this horrible pain to subside. Otherwise I am healing well from the RCS and have a good little eater who is gaining weight like a champ. So excited to hear about all the other babies who have arrived in the past few weeks, hope you all are doing well
Super tired today. Dd was up twice last night and DH slept through both times =/. Then between peeing every 1.5-2h and being uncomfortable I didn't get much sleep and dd was up at 550. I've not been so good about no caffeine this pregnancy though!
Had our 37 week appt this morning. Only 13 more days until our TCS. Getting excited but super emotional about it too. Just trying to enjoy the time I have left with just dd. I even tear up when I think about it....Any other stm feel the same?
Tomorrow is my birthday, so hoping this kid stays in because I like everyone to have their own day. I really don't think I will go before my RCS though!

Super quiet day on my end. Just waiting at the dermatologist right now... Fun times lol. I heard two other women mention they've been waiting for the same doctor, ugh. Then yoga tonight. I'm anxiously awaiting feedback from my professor and hoping she asks for minimal changes to my final paper. I cannot wait to be able to say I'm officially officially done!!!!
I'm trying not to feel like an asshole about this family situation but my aunt basically invited herself to my graduation and I really don't want her there. She's extremely negative and makes people uncomfortable and I'll be over 39 weeks pregnant so I just want to be relaxed and comfortable. I basically told my dad he needs to figure out a way to tell her no but he's being difficult. Am I a jerk? I'm her only blood relative besides my dad and she is very generous to me but last time I spent time with her both DW and I were miserable and it was so draining. My dad keeps saying I need to cultivate a relationship with her but I want to do it on my terms not his!!! Ugh. Guidance appreciated!

Oh my goodness I just broke myself!! So I was at the park with my 4 yo. He was in a bucket swing and this mom had two little ones, one looked 2 or 3, and one looked like he was 1. Her older daughter started crying so she picked her up and was distracted. The 1 year old had gotten pretty far from her at this point. I noticed he started making his way to the parking lot, where a busy street was right behind it. He stared running and at this point had made it to the parked cars, directly behind the parked car was tyhe super busy street . I was a good 30 feet away, but the mom was twice as far still with her daughter. She yells for him to stop, and I bust out in a dead sprint. Honest to goodness I reached him just before he made it to the road. The mom thanks me and leaves. I had that super shakey feeling and go back to my son in those bucket swing. Once the adrenaline stopped and I took my son out to walk to the car, I realized I had jacked something up. OMG it kills to walk. I hurt whatever ligament go from your legs to your groin, ahhh. 100000% worth it, but I think I should go into labor tonight as a karmic thank you for my herorics

BabyStandish I had no idea I would be so emotional about it. Obviously I'm excited about baby and so is dd, but still, so emotional.
rosesquared It's your day so you have the people you want there for it. There is definitely a lot of family, including my actual father, that I don't include as frequently in events and it's mainly because I don't want the awkwardness or drama!!

And rosesquared, I'm an NP in derm and can tell you we hate to be behind as much as you hate to wait, but it just means your doc is giving other patients the time they need. We have 15 min appt slots ns double book times as well and are still booked out weeks to a month and sometimes something more complicated walks in and takes more time. We do our best! GL with your appt!

cubbiebear325 yeah turned out today their entire system was down so no internet and the dr was using her wifi hotspot for her computer. She was super apologetic and I know you'all work hard! 😊

Totally normal!!! I had a hard time not crying every time I put DS1 to bed in the couple weeks before DS2 arrived. I feel bad this time because now I'm too busy to worry about it this time. But, I do feel guilty that I'm making DS2 a big brother when he is not even 19 months old. ☹️
Well not much going on here other than being in horrendous hemorrhoid hell, still. I've had a hell of a time getting an rx because my insurance won't cover anything for hemmies since there are OTC options - problem is my Dr said the OTC stuff just isn't strong enough for my issue. Anyway, I finally got one for $45, so my mom just ran to pick it up for me since I essentially can't walk. My boss suggested I go ahead and start my leave now, but I don't want to do that because I will lose 4 days with LO. Not gonna happen. I will drag my hemorrhoid ass to work if I have to at least one day this week. Baby arrives Friday morning!
I didn't think it was possible but I'm in a worse mood than before! Yesterday I had some... I'm interesting things going on down there and I thought for sure it meant baby time was soon. Then last night I had hours of painful contractions that were getting closer together so I was really sure. Dh even took the day off... and nothing. They just stopped. Whyyyy?
So ds1 woke up at 11pm last night and puked. Then DH noticed a rash on his arms so decided to take him to emergent care. Ds1 ended up puking 4 more times while waiting for the dr. Turns out he had some sort of bacterial infection. Not sure what the rash was as it disappeared before the dr saw it. He's on abx and got shipped to grandma's again as he's not to be around the twins for 24hrs. I feel so bad for the boy. I hope we can keep him home soon.
And of course the twins decided to be up every 2 hrs to eat so we're all exhausted today.
On the plus side public health came and weighed the twins and both gained well since they were discharged!

rosesquared...ugh yeah it stinks big time when the electronic medical record is down! It's like walking in blind bc there is no access to past visits. I can remember what people are there for generally, where some skin cancers were off the top of my head, but meds and all information about every patient...no way!
