I am trying to work through potential leave options for #2, my career vs. DHs, what makes sense financially, what makes sense logistically…and it all makes my head hurt.
DD napped fine in her big bed Saturday (after screaming for awhile) and Sunday (no screaming). And overnight both nights, no prob.
Now she is in there yelling and I'm pretty sure throwing things off the bookcase. Go.to.sleep.
It doesn't help that I feel like garbage because I'm sick of being pregnant. Apparently my body has flipped back to being super-sensitive to smells, gagging on food, and throwing up again. Kind of like first tri, except now there is a gigantic 36-week baby inside of me. This morning, I had dry cheerios. For lunch, I am having a can of coke. I have no energy to argue with a toddler.
I convinced my H to let me buy pair of wedges for our Hawaii trip I have been eyeing (which are not at all MM). I went to the mall at lunch and picked them up. It made my week.

I'm exhausted and grumpy. I couldn't sleep last night because I was upset about family drama, then DD was up and down starting at 430. And her swing broke, which is where she still naps during the day. Both kids are super clingy. I simultaneously need a hug and some space.
Maroon 5 concert tonight and DD is spending the night with my mom. I wish I weren't sick because we could really take advantage of the free night. Sigh...
Omg, today's DWP thread about school cancellations is killing me. Granted, it seems to be one ridiculously out of touch poster today, but why do they have the most ridiculous posts every single day? Is it intentional?

I took DD to storytime at Barnes & Noble this morning. Everything was going fine until the woman reading the books fell off her chair. It was so weird, just out of nowhere and BAM, she was on the floor. :? (she was okay, just embarrassed)

I've been wondering all weekend if you got your wedding ring off?
Should I be on DWP? I never ventured over there because I thought it was taken over by TB's SAHM board, and I'm not a SAHM. Is it not that? Is it entertaining-good or entertaining-bad?

Yes, but I had to have the jeweler cut it off, and underneath is a red scaly indentation from where it was rubbing for the past few months. I'm having it resized and also have a plain band to wear in the meantime.
I was able to wear my rings throughout my entire pregnancy with DD, and this time I didn't even make it past 9 weeks. Very strange.

I read 1.5 pages and that's all I could take today. That poster is not bright.

I wonder if she had a TIA or something.
Maybe, but afterwards, one of the other moms said it looked like she was just recrossing her legs and lost her balance. I felt so bad for her, poor thing.
Pregnancies can be so different, too. Last time I was so swollen at this point I couldn't wear my rings, was wearing compression socks, anything I could think of. This time I'm not really swollen at all but still sick and about 10 lbs lighter.
Suddenly, now that my kids are one, it seems much more bizarre to me that they still wear 9 month size pants. Will they ever grow??
My kid was still wearing mostly 12-18 month pants when he turned two in October. He moved to 18-24m soon after, and in January finally to 2T. They'll grow!
I am having major baby name anxiety. I can NOT decide. And every time I do, I realize there is a problem with it. (Like initials spell something weird or his name would be Will E. LastName). Willy. Sigh. I am 99% sure we will end up picking his name out of a hat and letting fate decide.

We had this with DS2. It's so much pressure to name a kid. We literally decided on DS2's name in the car driving to my C-section. We didn't even have a top 3 or anything, I was just to indecisive.

it is so hard. Both of mine were not named until at least 2 days out.
You know how people have amazing sex dreams while pregnant? Not me. I have pregnancy nightmares instead. They're all about ISIS at the moment. I really need to stop reading the Daily Mail before I go to bed.
I don't have awesome sex dreams ever. Well, like once a year.

We are stressing ourselves out about coming up with a boy name even though we don't know/won't find out the gender until April 15th. I can't come up with a good name for a third boy! We've already used all the names we like on DS1 and DS2! I don't know why DH and I can't just drop it until after the anatomy scan.
At least if it's a girl we can finally use the name we easily decided on when I was pregnant with DS1.
