Feb. 23rd, 2013 05:25 pm19 weeks.
The sickness hit a high note then seems to have dropped off again. My mom is BESIDE herself in grandma glee and while I understand, good gravy. Its enough from afar......She was "you gonna do prenatal classes?" No, i think three miscarriages is quite the schooling in pain management and the process of labor, thanks. Wished she could give us my sister's second hand baby stuff,and no. We can afford the stuff we need, and I don't want her manky second hand junk. I know she trashed stuff. And we're clear on the other side of the country, and it probably isn't what we need anyway. ( IE SUV stroller not city stroller)
Ah well.
We went shopping today, got some sale stuff at Gap kids again, and then spent one of the gift cards at sears on some larger ticket baby stuff not so much clothes. We're pretty much good to go for the first 6 months, and then just need to get some stuff for 6-12m that we're lacking.
Got some writing done this week. Its term break! ( half way done!) and so i have 2 weeks more or less, off. Whoo. I've been a bit "well run dry" on the novel, so I have to do some drastic moves to get that started again.
deleted someone off my FB for constantly posting about guns. No, really that's ALL he ever posted was gun ads, what kind of gun he wants, what mods he wants on and on and on. Like, dude....enough.
I'm on the verge of deep sixing or putting on perma-hide all posts, the militant PETA vegan, and the "eco hippie warrior the world is shit and we're doomed but I raise chickens so I'm doing my part!" groaner who posts slactivist style posts all day on how we're all shit. Its dreary. I swear some people use FB as their own soapbox, and I use it for social interaction, not to be constantly preached at. Its not like I want to be your captive audience for all your causes, fuck le fuck off. bad as my evangelical fundie uber christchun uber uber uberest of the godlies aunt who posts well, bibble screeds all DAY.
Oh, and the one guy onmy FB who went all "rawr get off mah lawn gonna delete my page!!!!!" because he wanted people to write or call? and all....still on FB. Pitching an indiegogo for his band. I deleted him because I got tired of his whining. At least it saved me from being pitched at constantly.
Got new glasses from Zenni. COnsidering my old pairs were 5 yrs old, and all, my script hadn't changed much but I love that i can get three pairs for a fraction of what the locals charge. Jeebus 300 bucks for glasses get bent. They're so pretty tho. I'm happy.
And a pair of pac man print booties in the mail. Why are all the girls clothes at the stores so effing pink and princessy tho? Like, holy crap. We've been shopping boys just for the more unisex looking gear, tho they get the uber boy boy stuff. How about some non princessy non dino and truck things? We are avoiding all the logo'd wear, converse, sesame street, nike, etc. Kid's a kid not a billboard.
I have to rearrange the closet later to fit the new purchases tho. Got myself some extra t shirts. I'm not even really close to needing maternity specific stuff, maybe some shirts at the final couple months at most, but my weight loss left me with ample room, the weight shifted off me and all to the belly. No lie, I'm going to enjoy not battling to lose the pregnancy weight as much. Small perk.
Anyway. Nausea's a bit much now, so off to lie down for a bit. Blerf. If the rest of this was at this level or a bit better, I might actually not lose my mind. I can't wait to start talking to the doc's about a permanent no more babies option. We're already murmuring induction at 38 w, not that I think I'll even get to 40 anyway, not that I really want to. Too fucking sick. next week is the ultrasound, find out the gender, ( which they don't do in BC, so booyah ontario) and appease grandma's begging for ultrasound pics, and then shortly after, announce it on FB.
Half way through. It really can't be as hellacious as 7-17 weeks was. Goddamn that was HELL.
