confession session & good thoughts tuesday
Re: confession session & good thoughts tuesday
Sorry these are all baby-related, they really kind of take over your life.
Good thoughts to everyone who needs them! I am thinking of all who need health- and job-related vibes. I hope things get better!
Confession: It makes me so mad that my company allows all the male project managers (except one - so I guess 75% of them) to work from home, while I have to work in the office. I should be grateful that they're allowing me to transition back part-time for the next four weeks but instead I'm a brat.
Confession: I'm nervous about leaving April with my husband to go to work. He spends a lot of time holding her and not really paying attention. While not doing anything around the house. How is it that I find time to do chores while still interacting with her but he doesn't?
Confession: When the elderly dog started making his noises to be fed before 5 this morning, I considered putting him outside or in the basement. It really sucks to be woken up early by a dog that sleeps all the time except when you're trying to get as much sleep as possible while the baby is asleep before work!
Confession: My sister is pissing me off. She's blown me off to go to the bar four times in the past two weeks. As in, we had set plans and she either never called me or she called from the bar that she caught a buzz and was staying (one time she was supposed to have me over for dinner). I know I'm not fun in that way anymore, but I'd be happy to buy her beers to drink here if she hung out with me. But when she needs help with something, she's all of a sudden interested in spending time with me.
I'm really feeling much better and appreciate all the support you all offered! But I just wanted to get a couple things off my chest.
It took 5 failed IUIs and a failed IVF, but our FET worked!

Our baby girl was born on April 27, 2011!
Good thoughts - to everyone!
Confession - I may be able to commit murder. Roomie must go. Now. He's supposed to be gone Friday or Saturday - I'd prefer it to be today. I can't take it anymore.

Good thoughts to everyone for health, wealth, babies, jobs... anything at all.
Confession: I am jealous that my husband gets to go to work every day and do something other than taking care of a baby for 8 hours in a row. While I am finally starting to enjoy maternity leave in general with easier feedings and more sleep, I wish I could take an 8 hour break. Even if I did get a break from the baby, I can't go 8 hours without needing to pump... I feel slightly trapped. And then I feel like that makes me a bad mother.
