Sunday brunch special: Spam!

[seamonster]

It's Feb 1st!

[seamonster]

Mac and cheese for two is now lunch for one. It's DH's fault from taking so long to get home from his run.

[aggiebug]

I am so hungry. And I kind of want eggs and bacon. Except we don't have bacon. Sad day.

Do you think I can convince H that pregnancy cravings last after baby is here?


MIL is coming in today to help for the week. I am having such mixed emotions about it. Mostly because my mom can't be here and I don't know when my mom will get get to meet her. It's sucks. Thankfully FIL isn't coming because I guarantee my emotions would no longer be mixed I would be dreading the week.

Coming in from June BMB to wish all February Mums a healthy birth. All the best ladies. We'll be checking out this board for all the cute baby announcements

[miniwheat]

Its FEB! I have 2 days left of having only one child. Holy Eff
I am so nervous about everything!

DD and I are watching the Puppy Bowl today and then dinner with DH's parents. We are in a bad cold snap so its been tough tiring her out the past few days with limited outside time. But she has surprised me with staying dry and wanting to use the potty all day for the past 2 days. I hope his is it for really getting on and staying on the potty training wagon. I am so proud of her!

Going to brave the snowstorm to get breakfast!

I can't believe it's February! We are having a baby this month. I am excited, but my anxiety has revved up bad. I feel like there are so many things to do and we are running out of time. I got upset yesterday because we were putting in the base for the car seat in my car, and finally DH said, "Fuck it, they'll tell us what to do." We are having a baby and don't even know how to put in a car seat! I don't want to nag DH to do more things because he is already way over stressed from work. They treat him like shit, so he comes home pissed.

Ok that turned into a semi rant. Sorry. Happy Sunday. Have fun watching the Super Bowl if you do!

[lotsofdotts]

I slept in the bed last night and my hips are not killing me! I am hoping that is a good sign that things are progressing. I haven't been able to sleep on my side without almost crying for over a month. Hopefully we will make more progress on cleaning the house and such. Ya'll reminded me that I have to nag the hubby because he still hasn't installed the car seat. We are going to be the idiots trying to do it at the hospital if he doesn't get off his arse.

[FlutterOfYoshis]

aggiebug - Glad someone is coming to help out but I'm sorry it's not your own mom like you want.

We're sorta opposite where my mom will be there as soon as we let her, but MIL is the one we don't know about and we really want her to meet LO sooner rather than later. DH can't wait to tell his mom we're honoring her in this baby's middle name. We'll have to figure out how to get her to Skype or something so we get to see her reaction before we reveal baby's name to the public.

[cougarette]

Good morning! I actually slept halfway decent last night.

Today we're going over to the in law's for dinner. Then it's Super Bowl time. That's pretty much all I have on the agenda and I couldn't be more excited.

[misshart00]

I slept pretty good last night. Only got up three times to pee. Yay!

I'm getting more and more nervous about Tuesday. I want to go into labor naturally before then. And the whole "I'll have a newborn" thing really freaks me out.

[dreemkin]

Happy Sunday! I am snuggling Anna as I "type" this and it's the best! It's really snowing here so I'm glad we are already here and not coming in today. We are staying til tomorrow to monitor the baby since I was GBS positive.

Watching superbowl tonight from a crappy hospital tv...I'm so bummed about that.

[kcrosem]

I am having a baby this week! Crazy. I can't wait to meet him. I was just thinking how different he might be from DS or not.

Eta: congrats again dreemkin!

[lilyelayne]

Happy February, ladies! Felt wretched yesterday but after sleeping in this morning I'm much improved. DH & I are cooking for my ILs Super Bowl party so my morning looks like prepping food for the smoker.

Sorry for those of you dealing with nasty weather interrupting your plans!

[cloe111479]

This is the month the rest of us will meet our little
Ones. Ah!

It's great and scary at fhe same time.

DH was supposed to play golf with his dad today but they woke up and aaw fhe weather so they decided against it. Dang it! I wanted the house to myself today.

Bringing zoey to get groomed today. That is literally my only plans today.

[rmsteele]

Working today and I have to meet with patients which means I'm on my feet until 9 pm. I'm hoping things aren't crazy today and that everyone just stays at home watching the super bowl but I'm not usually that lucky.

[PikoPiko]

I too had a decent night of sleep last night, at least as decent as it gets at this stage!

Good luck to all the mamas meeting their little ones this week.

Sunday is my ticker update day. I'm 38 weeks! I wish I made my appts earlier in the week than my standard Thursdays. The only reason thursdays were chosen was DH said he has less meetings. Well, turns out his schedule changed and he's been making every excuse possible to not have to come with me to my appts. This week's appt - surely there will be a +1 in the pain club with me should an excuse be tried.

[duckker]

I slept SIX HOURS last night!!!! Apparently I got up around three to pee and totally don't remember it. Holy crap, I feel like I could conquer the world. Or at least get around to mopping the kitchen floor.

Happy February, lovely ladies! I have never been so excited to see this month come up on the calendar, ever.

[duckker]

Also cougarette, I haven't let my H install the car seat base, because I want to be sure it's done right. Made the enormous mistake of telling him that the other night in a moment of exhausted honesty. Plus, I want an excuse to hang out with our local firefighters. Should probably hurry up and get that checked off the list...

[flyster]

ambz06060 we were supposed to get ours checked last Monday, but then there was a blizzard so....hopefully DH put it in right, cause the next appointment they had was after baby would need to be evicted.

Who checks it? DH said to take it to our local police station. 

[AppropriateChocolate]

Happy Sunday ladies. I can't believe it's birth month for us... Yay! Wishing you all the best L&D and healthy happy babies this month.

Spam: just finished cleaning.. now watching my guilty pleasure Monster Truck racing... Go gravedigger... (Please don't judge me lol)

To find someone near by who checks car seats. Not a lot of fire departments do it daily any more.

I checked our police station website and we have one officer who checks them and you have to make an appointment-which is on my list of things to do 

my spam: my OB got put on bed rest suddenly this week which was a bit of a surprise and made me sad.  Her and the baby are okay which is great.  

And thanks to whomever recommended the zipper sheets, I got them and am already in love!  And I love seeing all the baby pics in people's siggys!  So cute!  

[ambz06060]

aggiebug thank you

[babycfeb2015]

Oops posted in Sat instead of Sunday. Tons of snow in Chicago today and praying it sends me into labor!

aggiebug thank you

yeah, for us its the fire station, but its just one person I think.  I used that same link @angiebug recommended. The hospital will also check it as well I think before they let you go home.

It's Feb 1st!

I really do think this is bananas!

[kerrigrooves]

woke up and started vacuuming at 7:30 am, DH was asking if this was my "burst of energy" that his mom told him to look for before baby comes. Im not looking for medical advice here but I thought my water broke this morning as I had a little clear discharge but no contractions...Im going to wait around a little longer and look for a trickle. Today is my prediction for having this baby so maybe Im looking for signs that arent really there

Have a fun super bowl Sunday ladies

With my first, I didn't have contractions after my water broke.

Spam: We have mass, then off to our friend's house for the Super Bowl. My son is in love with the Seahawks and wants to play for them one day (he's 6), so I hope they win to avoid any broken hearts today.
