March 3rd in Review

Do you live in a place where you can look out the window and see this?  No?  Sucks to be you.  LOL.  I loooooooooooove living here.  Love it.  <3 Love.

Shila is 17 weeks 1 day today.  She had her OB appointment.

She literally had a temper tantrum about peeing in the cup.  I happened to say - getting out of the van - "Don't forget you have to pee in a cup!"  and she goes "you wish" ... um... nope.  It's not what I wish, it's what they need.  We get up there, called back, and the nurse weighs her, and then tells her to go pee in a cup.  She literally took one tiny step towards the bathroom and pivots and walks into the room "I don't have to pee."  The nurse looks a little annoyed.  So she goes off and I tell Shi that she HAS to pee in a cup, and we'll be there until she does, because they aren't going to let her leave until she does.  I said "Get ready to drink water" ... lol....

So the nurse comes in and digs out a styrofoam cup and starts to get some water from the sink faucet and she (Shi) jumps off the table and goes "I'm not drinking that water" and leaves the room to go to the bathroom.  SERIOUSLY.  And she manages to go - GO FIGURE!!!  LOL

Then she comes back and calls the nurse a (c-word) ....  to me, not to the nurse, but it's possible the nurse could have overheard her.  Oye.... (shakes head) ....  I just can't.

Then the DR asks how she is, and she says fine.  I tell the DR about the cramps she's been in that she's been in tears over.  Doc thinks it's her muscles pulling with the uterus and possibly the scar tissue from her first c-section.

Doctor asks if she wants the triple screen - she grabs her stomach - it's a blood test.  So then she starts up on the  last lady who drew her blood, etc, and complains about her for a good three minutes.  Then she brings up peeing in a cup and how she hopes she doesn't have to next time, so I pipe up and explain to her she's got to do it every time she comes in to keep an eye on the protein she's spilling out of her urine to make sure she doesn't get pre-eclampsia ....  and the Doc goes "I'm so glad you are here, you can nag her not me."  LOL.... Shila goes "If she wasn't here I'd probably be yelling at everyone."

:::: rolling eyes :::: Oye this girl.

So we come home and I start cleaning and organizing my room.   When I get the vacuum the part that you turn to adjust the height of the carpet FELL INTO THE VACUUM.  Okay so DB fixes it, but it's like all jacked up still - on the highest setting of carpet, so I go to adjust it, and it's not even in the right spot and then it falls in again.  ( rolls eyes ) ....  so ....

You know you are a Tubie Mom when medical tape replaces duct tape, scotch tape, masking tape ...  you can wrap gifts with that shit.

And thennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Tubie Mom FAIL.  Med port open.  ::: smacks head :::
