I feel like shit. I am fighting a cold, have weird rib/back pain (this has been an ongoing issue since my first pregnancy) and I’m super bloated from IVF injections. Yesterday was my anniversary and we went out do dinner with DS and he was so obnoxious. My temper is short from being in discomfort. I let him eat Oreos for dinner just so he’d be quiet for 2 minutes. Mom of the year.
Is the weird rib/back pain intense? If so, have your gallbladder checked. I had the same thing with my 1st pregnancy and ended up in the hospital 3 months post partum. Mine didn’t present normally so it wasn’t caught until it was an emergency.
It’s pretty intense. I’ve been to urgent care and th ER over it and they both said it’s costochondritis (inflamed rib cartilage). I could have sworn they would say it’s my gallbladder but they both say no. 🤷♀️
We had a neighborhood-wide garage sale today. I heard about 20 homes participated. It was the first time I’d ever done one, but took the opportunity to purge the rest of the baby stuff along with old toys and stuff junking up the basement. I made about $130, and the organize drove a U-Haul truck around and the end picking up anything leftover for donations to Goodwill. It’s so nice to have it all gone!!
I'm waiting for H to bring back some food from a nearby restaurant.
We thought we'd be able to get out for dinner most nights but baby girl is growing 4 teeth that we can see for sure and with the total nap refusal we don't have it in us to take her out at bedtime.
Luckily we booked a place with a kitchen so we've been able to make stuff too as we're halfway through the holiday and haven't eaten out at night yet.
DS1 stayed with MIL last night and she’s kept him all day, so we’ve just had DS2. It’s been really fun to just have one and be able to focus on him. He’s such a fun kid.
We’re celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving because I love thanksgiving food, so I spent the morning making stuffing and DH prepped potatoes and green beans. I also have soup on the stove that I need to finish up.
Other than lots of cooking, we’re just doing laundry and cleaning. DH has done most of that, so that’s really nice. I’m at the park with DS2 while he gets some of that done.
I’m hoping for a relaxing evening on the couch since it’s been such a busy day.
We have family photos tomorrow afternoon. I really love our photographer, so I’m already excited to see the results.
We were supposed to get my SDs tonight after SD1 gets off work. Their mom doesnt let her drive to our house, 45 minutes away. We meet a little more than halfway so mom only has to drive about 20 minutes. Just found out she won't drive them this weekend because it's a waste of gas. They havent come over in a month, we try to be understanding because teenagers but I'm freaking pissed. DH is trying to negotiate, he may end up driving the whole way tonight and tomorrow.
My anxiety has become almost unmanageable. I don’t sleep, I don’t laugh, I can’t even enjoy spending time with L. I don’t want to do anything. I don’t even like listening to music anymore. My stomach is always sick so I can’t eat. I don’t know what to do.
Get help now.
I have anxiety, and at times it is all consuming. I am on meds, and have a ton of self care ‘tricks’ to utilize (thanks therapy). I hate how much work it is to just not be anxious but at the same time I hate feeling anxious more.
If you subbed the word anxiety with any other illness you would not ignore it and not go to a doctor. Self care is so important. Do not ignore your medical condition, get help. If not for yourself then to set an example for your kid.

These drunk people are spilling beer on me and the chick to my left is wearing a short nightie as a dress. It's entirely possible she's not wearing underwear.

I'm supposed to be in a group fitness class right now but I'm sitting in my car in the parking lot. I'm so exhausted. DH changed shifts at work this week in addition to going back to school. All the house stuff has fallen to me and I can't keep up. I don't want to bother him because I know he has a lot on his plate, but I'm so overwhelmed. There are so many half finished projects that he has started and I don't see them getting done anytime soon. Hiring out help really isn't an option right now. The mess has me really stressed. Heavy lifting would have been good for me this morning but I just don't have the mental energy.
