OB appointment in a couple hours and I'm crossing my fingers that I've made good progress since last week!

My ILs are getting car maintenance in the town over today so they want to take me out to lunch. I really don't want to have to get dressed and sit in a public restaurant right now I'm just so damn big and barely fit into anything anymore! And I'm just not up to hanging out with them without H. How do I get out of this tactfully? This would be an excellent day to go into labor.

Sadly no contractions, cervical mucus, or bloody show going on down there aside from the occasional mild cramp. Womp womp womp...

I'd just tell them that you're not feeling up to it. Surely they can understand that a 9month pregnant lady probably doesn't feel great 100% of the time. Good luck with that!

I am currently trying to force myself to not turn on Netflix and start watching the new season of OITNB. So many of my friends started binge watching it when it was early released yesterday, but I am trying to save it for when I am stuck on the couch breast feeding. Ugh! It's hard!

DH had an appendectomy last Sunday after finally caving and going to the VA ER. Then last night I had to take him back for what ended up being pneumonia due to surgery complication. They kept him overnight again but I couldn't try to sleep in those ungodly hospital chairs a second time. Atleast our broken a/c got fixed before we headed to the hospital. I'm sick of hospital trips/stays already and LO isn't even due till next week.

I'm so sorry your DH is sick- talk about bad timing! FX he gets better quickly and can take care of you! Glad your AC is fixed- ours was out for an afternoon here, and I thought I was going to die. Overheated pg ladies are never a good thing!

Can't believe we are on page 3 of baby births now! So many outside June babies!!

I'll be going in for induction starting Sunday night, with baby girl hopefully coming Monday too! apparently the 15th will be a great day to be born:)

[holliberry28]

paintdadanta, I' m sorry your DH isn't feeling well. I hope he has a quick recovery so you can get some rest.

[erbear]

6/15/15 does have a nice ring to it!

[periwinkledaydreams]

I wouldn't mind being added to the 6/15/15 club... just sayin!!! COMONNN BABBBYY!!!!

[missk0411]

My daughter is 5/13/13. So I kinda want this one to come on 6/15/15.

[turtletyme]

kemdupuis, I am on episode 3. I really need to stop. I was supposed to save it for late-night feedings and insomnia!

[sugarkissed]

6/15/15 here too! Let's all enjoy this last weekend!!

I feel your pain! I'm saving Orange, Mad Men, Vikings, and Outlander for leave. They are just sitting there...taunting.

[Widget123]

DH left the door to our house next to the driveway wide open for 2 FREAKING DAYS! I am shocked no one waltzed right into our house and took something.

DD is having a really hard time adjusting to being a big sister. Hopefully this will pass soon.

Oooh thanks for the reminder! I am really looking forward to it!

[wormgerm]

I've been excited for OITNB release since I found out I was pregnant and due right around the release of the new season. I'm saving it for when he's born too.

[kemdupuis]

Went to the pool to relax for a bit this afternoon, and I feel like I got accosted by some rando SAHMs. They started imparting their wisdom on me before I could even open my mouth... I mean, it was nice for them to come and talk to me, but weird that they immediately started recommending lactation consultants and how to schedule in pumping. Feeling a bit overwhelmed, here.

Oh my goodness, this is awful anytime, but would be so much more stressful right now! Hope your H is doing ok.

Always beware the SAHM's who hang around the pool all day...just as a general rule

Yeah my pool has a group of SAHM's who get dressed in matching fedora hats, chino shorts, linen button downs and fancy sandals. I don't trust anyone who doesn't wear a swimsuit to the pool with their kids.

[erbear]

So my H is nesting now. He's put a TV in the nursery so I can watch Netflix while nursing. Random nesting, but it's a sweet idea!

[kemdupuis]

Haha tatersalad- this group must be especially sneaky then. They were all in swimsuits. I was minding my own business, reading my book and this one mom kept saying "now don't jump into the pool near that lady- she is trying to read her book" really loudly. I made the mistake of acknowledging them, and it was all over from there! @jemomma- where was this advice when I needed it earlier today?!

[sunnyb]

I'm scheduled for my c section on 6/15 too! I love that it's the exact middle of the year!!

While getting in the car this am, DS1 said "mama, I'm sad that little brother is coming out of your body soon."


Why don't you just stab me in the heart, my little one?

DS is warming up slowly, but he kept saying he didn't want me to have a baby. And then baby arrived. And then he reminded me that I wasn't supposed to have a baby. I feel the love.

pghtruelove so sorry Hang in there.

Just checked in with the hospital to confirm my noon induction, and they are behind. They will call me in a couple of hours with a new time. Am I ever going to have this baby?

Edited: fix tag

My noon induction turned into a 4pm induction and baby was in my arms 731pm. Hopefully you have a great experience when they get you in

[mcp6286]

Here's my confession: we ate out every night this week and even though I stayed home today, I just sent DH out to pick up Texas-style BBQ (mmmmmmmmm yummy!). I made some freezer meals but I just didn't want to cook beyond that. I'm too indecisive and cravings change too quickly. So yeah...it was all about the takeout and prob will be until we return from the hospital next week!

But to earn back some of my good mommy points, I planned our menu for the entire length of DH's vacation and started making the freezer stuff for the first week. That counts for something right?

[missjenniebean]

I'm really upset.

My dog literally went to attack the mailman. Same old mailman, so idk what was up. She snuck right by me when I went to go back in. Luckily, she didn't bite because he kicked her and by then I had gotten to her. Never has she done this to anyone. Ever. I'm extremely upset and she got some spankings and probably some extra too. I was so upset I cried for an hour and took her to my moms. I'm sure it is a job hazard for the mailman and I feel awful about it. luckily no one was hurt other than mentally...so that's good....but still...my baby girl has never done that before...even with the baby she has been fine with the ups man...the home aid nurse...other people...i just don't know.

[kemdupuis]

@jemomma damn you have these ladies pegged!!! They weren't blatant with their drinks.. But they definitely all had adult sippy cups. I mean, I am a full supporter of day drinking, but probably not with little kids running around the pool.
