ljgs1010 since you are getting your tubes tied, I would for sure do a RCS.

untaggablekatie Sorry that fight got you upset. Hope your day gets much better.

kamakaziartist Poor E. Is she starting breathing treatments again?

Add me to the FUCK DAYCARE GERMS chorus. A was up all night coughing. He is snoring loudly, and the ENT did say he may need his adenoids and/or tonsils removed this year. I guess we'll see what he says at our Follow-up in April.

ggandlee Glad he's in recovery now!

Yes, breathing treatments. Ughhhh.

And I'm singing pretty loudly in that chorus. Fuuuuck me.

[wineallthetime]

My butt and legs are so sore from my workout. It's painful.

cagoldi, sorry A isn't feeling well, you guys seriously need to catch a break. FX he feels better soon. Daycare germs can EABOD!

Nothing happening here, I am grumpy and my coworker of mine keeps eating apples and coming over to talk behind me trying to teach me stuff and I all hear is "NOM NOM NOM'.

I hate that. I have a coworker who always eats raw carrots in meetings. Seriously? Stop crunching.

[trtlcrzy]

I was texting mamasoup030 and she wanted me to give you guys an update. She's had all sorts of craziness going on so she hasn't had time to stop by. They finally figured out what was making her sick, a UTI. She is feeling better now.

[trtlcrzy]

ggandlee I'm glad everything went well and I hope you can see him soon!

cagoldi I hope Arcticpuss is over his cough soon.

[trtlcrzy]

tgrimes1980 how's Mara doing?

[htk1113]

I'm sorry to hear about the sick babies and mamas. As well as all the ups and downs that have happened seemingly overnight.

Glad to hear surgery went well, ggandlee.

Last night, I registered to run a 1/2 marathon in Nov.  So far away but still scaring the crap out of me.  WTF was I thinking?  So, today I start the slow process of learning how to run again.

Is there still an exercise thread for us?

@mothereffer How are you feeling today?

Still getting over this cold. My asthma can EABOD.

I told daycare yesterday that we were going to be looking elsewhere. I said I had no complaints about her, just that obviously the situation wasn't working out for everyone involved. I asked that she be patient with is while we looked elsewhere as she knows how hard it is to find infant daycare here. She agreed and just asked for 2 weeks notice like the contract we signed.

Today I have gotten glowing texts about how well he is doing. I don't get it. I have two appointments to interview day cares this week. One sounds like a long shot but the other sounds really promising. I was honest and described the situation and with no prompting from me she said that it sounded like we were dealing with separation anxiety. Zero prompting from me.

MEK I would recommend this site in finding a new DC.  www.greatstartconnect.org/find-child-care-preschool  I also called and talked to someone about why DCs we were interested in were marked down.

Hi Ladies!

Major hugs to those with sick babies, fights with dumb DHs and owing on taxes. ggandlee, I'm glad surgery is over and I hope you get to see your man soon!

ljgs1010, sitting here at 39 weeks and 6 days after 10 straight days of contractions---do the RCS. This shit sucks. Especially if you want your tubes tied (disclaimer, my tune may change post-delivery). This baby is so effing low I can see the top row of my ab 'muscles'.

Sorry I've been MIA the past few days, yesterday was my last day at work so the past few days I was busy doing actual work or in meetings talking about the work I had to pass on to others.

Maternity leave has started, but not baby. DH is ridic sick so my 'get this baby out' plan of walking on the treadmill and bouncing on the birthing ball has turned into a 'keep this baby in' plan. He went to the doctor--he doesn't have strep and he doesn't have the flu, which is good, I guess. So he is home, taking mucinex and sleeping. FX he feels better soon and Miss H doesn't catch this. Meanwhile, I have loaded up on essential oils and tons of water.

[trtlcrzy]

It's like 40 degrees out. If Hannah wasn't sick we would be going for a walk. Especially since it's supposed to snow tonight and be in the teens for the foreseeable future.

I think I remember what 40° feels like. It's a distant memory, but a fond one.

Uh, this. I *think* its 12 today? And I live in NoVa---this shit is unreal.
Instead of taking the dogs for a walk today, I threw them in the car and did the drive thru Starbucks, they enjoyed barking at the barista.

Well, living where it gets so cold is a bad choice. Everyone needs to move to Orange County.

I do not like today's love tit phrase.

I mean I know the song but don't get the "ur"

Is it SNL skit related? Isn't there some character on there that talks like that...I could be way off though....

[trtlcrzy]

I think they are making fun of the way he sings the song. IDK. do not like.

I didn't know you were in NoVa, did I? Where (if you don't mind my asking)?  I'm in Fairfax County.

I'm in Leesburg, work in FFX County!!! 

[klongoria11]

@mx2, I tried to google it and it just gives me a link back to gbcb.

[Cherhorowitz]

I miss you, tjhine!!

[88sharonlee]

Great news ggandlee! I'm so happy to hear it went well. Wishing you and H a speedy and relaxing recovery.

Sorry to hear about E @kama, hope your day turned around.

I'm headed home on an early train! DH stayed home with LO today, she was up bouncing around when I got up at 5:30- I'm curious how their day went!

Oh and I'm secretly hoping to convince DH to order Chinese takeout- but I know we should just cook something healthy instead- boo

[88sharonlee]

ljgs1010 I had a similar birth experience (it sounds like) and although I'm always going to be a little sad I missed out on that moment when LO is birthed and you grab her in your arms and place her on your chest, I also remember how lucky I am. So I get the guilt, but I'm going RCS all the way and this time no hours of terrible labor before hand!

When/if we have a second my big issue will be if we stay with the same hospital the second time around. My C was terrifying, I don't want to scare anyone but I thought I was going to die. They say it's because I had already been through so much with the labor at that point and so many drugs- it's a long story.

The pain of labor sucked, but the fear during the C section lingered much longer- I'm going to be a mess if I ever have to do that again. But I'd still pick that over VBAC.

Just in case you wanted to read the novel of my inner thoughts!

[JoeLies]

We just got home from C's 15 month appointment. He is tearing up the family room, but he's all smiles so I am just letting him have his fun.

[ljgs1010]

I really, really do appreciate all the input on RCS vs VBAC. Seriously. It's putting my mind at ease that my initial decision was probably the right one.

kamakaziartist, poor E. I hope she's feeling better before you know it!

tjhine, hugs, love.

All of this. Scott Stapp is the douchiest douchebag ever.

[kamakaziartist]

tjhine so sorry life is rough right now. Big hugs.

I am at a local sushi place by myself. The stupid after hours answering service made me feel like a fucking idiot for calling in a panic because my peds sent the scrip to the wrong medical supply place for E's nebulizer. It came down to literally the last minute and the medical supply place stayed open for another 10 minutes so I could get there.

Tl;dr: I was crying when dh came home and he sent me to go eat sushi by myself.

[kamakaziartist]

And now I just ordered a deep fried California dream roll "to go." Yeah. I'm eating it in my car when I leave, lady.
