I complained yesterday about being woken up at 3:30. Today, I woke up at 2:45 on my own with no one else to blame. So, naturally I made some nachos to eat.
Just working today and then a shorter day tomorrow then New Years!

Mmh.. Nachos do sound LOVELY! Although, lately all I want is tons of seafood and alcohol. I'm obviously NOT indulging in the seafood buffet or the drinks, but I swear I'm dreaming about them.
I have my 16-week check-up today which I'm excited for. Although this morning I've been having these weird sharp pains up the center of my stomach, so I'm glad I get to talk to someone about them soon!
You guys, I'm having COFFEE today for the first time since about 5 weeks! Well, technically it's what I call a ghetto mocha (hot chocolate packet mixed with coffee), but it's delicious again! YAY!
In other news, I paid off one of my tiny student loans this morning! Now to put that $50/month towards one of the big scary ones. Ugh.
Good Morning everyone! Sorry I have been completely MIA - had a very un-fun medical adventure the past few days, but both baby and I are fine!
I will try to keep my story short - I got a virus of some sort and I couldn't keep anything down and had a fever, so off my doctor's office sent me to urgent care where I got some IV fluids. Then because I had tenderness on my right side they were seriously concerned it was appendicitis, which apparently happens more frequently in pregnancy. I thought it was RLP or a cyst, but apparently my opinion doesn't count. Anyway, I was sent to the ER seen by like a million doctors, got an ultrasound and an MRI and it was determined that everything was inconclusive and I had to stay in the hospital for observation. Fever went down and I can now eat so I was finally sent home and here I am. Throughout all this baby was fine thank goodness!! I see an OB in my group today (mine is out of town for the next few weeks) to follow up.
Side note I don't know if any of you have Kaiser for insurance, but the amount of different layers I had to go thru in this process was insane.
I haven't really caught up but I hope you all had a good holiday! I managed not to get sick until after Christmas so that was a plus!
I am getting my haircut today which hasn't happened some August. We will then head to the in laws till Saturday. Going up there with no wine is terrible.

good luck with your in-laws... Totally agree it is hard without wine. My FIL made a toast to me on Christmas for basically being a vessel for his son's progeny.

DS's daycare is closed all week (have I mentioned this before? And how annoying it is?) but it's pretty cool because DH was home Monday and Tuesday and now it's my turn.
I'm literally in my robe and underwear. It's 11am and I really want Chinese for lunch but I can't get my ass up and off of the couch to make it happen.
Some of my friends are pissing me off. There are a few that are all, "I'm sorry it's not a girl." And "I really wanted it to be a girl." Oh I'm sorry the fact that my baby has a penis is bumming you out, fuck off please.
DH is already dealing with a bit of 'gender disappointment' and we don't need rude comments about how sad it is that we're having two boys. And we want three anyway, but the "you're going to try for a girl, right? Is pissing me the fuck off.
I'm feeling pretty self conscious about looking pregnant. Idk why...is this normal to try to hide it (unsuccessfully)? I feel like I should feel more proud of my bump.
origamimommy I never could figure out why some people keep it a secret after they find out...your annoying friends cleared that up for me! They need to mind their own business!

That is ridiculous!! I'm pissed off for you too! People are so stupid sometimes. I'm sorry

We made it to my ILs finally a day late and after 12 hours of traveling yesterday. It was 10pm pst when we landed which felt like 1am est after having been with my parents a week. So I was exhausted and we skipped dinner. Then DS talked most of the way to their house with my MIL interrupting his stories to tell a story about all of the mall santas and where they had been for one of Dhs soccer tournaments 20 years ago. Dh quickly interrupted the multi Santa story since DS just turned 4 and KNOwS there is one Santa. Mil didn't understand the problem. Ugh. Hope the next few days fly by. To top it off I was up sick last night and spent an hour on the freezing bathroom floor sick and worrying about the baby. . And feeling guilty for skipping a real dinner.
titania, so glad you are feeling better and at home!
DS and I had a fun but long day yesterday, we didn't get home from my parent's until almost 10, of course DS woke at his normal time this morning. He is his own internal alarm clock, and mine.
Today DS and I might go to the botanical gardens. This outing is really fueled by the fact that it's in the same neighborhood as the bakery with my favorite sourdough croissants. Which I've realized I can by a lot of, freeze and they still come out perfectly when reheated in the oven.
Yesterday I was informed I needed some documents from the IRS for my job background check, I checked the IRS website yesterday and their system for downloading doc's online will be down from yesterday until Jan 11th. Of course it is.

This sucks. We will have two boys too and are super excited. Your DS will love having a little bro and they will be buddies. We are done at two so we won't ever have a girl. So far people have been excited it's another boy and I'm happy to have the boy stuff already and "know boy". I'd be so upset if people were jerks about it or made comments!!!!
I'm feeling pretty self conscious about looking pregnant. Idk why...is this normal to try to hide it (unsuccessfully)? I feel like I should feel more proud of my bump.
I think it's normal. I feel like I want to tell everyone I'm pregnant because I feel like a giant whale for being 16 weeks.
Add me to the list who is losing my mind with the ILs. MIL hasn't acknowledged my pregnancy at all during this visit - hasn't asked how I'm feeling, nothing. Whatever, no big deal. But last night at dinner she made a big deal over SIL who just had a baby a few weeks ago, because she needs to make sure she eats enough because she's eating for two! Ummm, ok.
Add that to the fact that during a half hour drive yesterday she told DS to play the quiet game because he was apparently talking too much for her, and I'm pretty much over this visit. Sorry that your grandson is excited to see you and wants to talk to you...
