Exhausted, swollen, nauseous, cramping, headachey, with a dash of carpal tunnel for some seasoning today!
Got up and moved to the couch because the pregsomnia was gonna wake up DH who has a huge day today.
Anyone else want to call in pregnant this AM?

Re: Wed 5/27 Daily Symptoms! (How YOU doin, ladies?)
Everything hurts. I'm walking around my house like a 90 year old woman. I've had a constant pain in my lower left side my entire pregnancy and it's just killing me right now.
Being pregnant is hard so far today.
Considering using my tennis ball sniffing stash as massage therapy tools at this point.
I'm still really loving using/smelling cleaning products like Gain detergent, Windex, Fabuloso, and Dawn, but am getting too tired to use them as much as I want to clean the house! I seriously find myself googling or going on Pinterest for ways to use Gain or Dawn. If I could soap and scrub the walls and baseboards of this house and not damage the paint, I would! I ended up scrubbing the kitchen grout with Dawn and an off-brand Magic Eraser yesterday.
Hmm... maybe that's why my back hurts...
But srsly, what else can I clean that won't put me out of commission?
DH and I had a joint meltdown last night, after our candy buckeyes failed (see Gripes thread). Got out all our anxieties (obviously there was a lot more going on than problems with melting chocolate!). I had a good cry (shout out to @klkonwi ) and we are both feeling enormously better today. We have also deemed the things Suckeyes. They taste heavenly but look horrific. I am still bringing them to the office for treats, along with photos of what they SHOULD look like.
Besides being hyperfocused on food and overall anxieties, I am feeling my usual exhausted but pretty good, today. Just learned from my officemate that I am freezing him out by keeping the windows open all the time (we are having a cold spell), so apparently warm body temperature is also something I am experiencing!
@Westypet I make my own detergent and house cleaners. It settles the nesting and makes me feel like I'm going green for baby. Adding coconut milk makes the detergent super bubbly! It's definitely an ocd pregnancy thing because I keep wanting to find new things to make. We have a basement full of empty containers for my new creations. DH is on board too it makes him feel Amish.
Oh and growing a "baby food" garden is on my list too.
Ummmmm you have to post pics of what they should look like and how they turned out! I say that only because I am the queen of Pinterest fails. Have you ever seen the Pinterest meme "nailed it"? Hilarious.
Poor coworker. He needs to bring a Buckeyes sweatshirt with him to work.
Haha, good call!!! I will definitely do that. I love Pinterest fails! I have made amazing buckeyes in the past, but am blaming Germany for this fail, lol
I would love to answer your "what else can I clean" question, but I sadly cannot relate! I think I will never nest. What about cleaning shoes? Wiping down the inside of drawers and silverware holders? Man, no clue... wish I had your cleaning drive!!
It's gotten to the point where DH hurries me past the cleaning supplies aisle at the grocery I store, and shakes his head when I start a new project. Now, just to find the balance between feeding the beast and taking it easy...
I didn't tell him about mopping the floors and scrubbing the tile grout... :^o

Happy hump day bumpies
<:-P
I have an OB appointment tomorrow and she's going to do a cervical check to hopefully help get things going (since I'm hoping for a VBAC and would like to avoid an induction scenario).
Overall I'm feeling good and can't wait for baby girl to arrive (due date in 2w2d eeek!)
I was up until 2AM with restless legs, heartburn, and insomnia. Blah.
I need some motivation to get myself off of the couch now.
I hope the rest of you fabulous ladies are feeling at least halfway decent today!
so last night after eating dinner I sat down on the couch and heard the top of my stomach make a loud POP! and a fiss after kinda like a balloon deflating no leaking of fluids or anything not sure what that was about. when searching the net last night lots of different explanations not sure what it was not too concerned nothing changed! hmmmm im so tired of being pregnant I was hoping this little girl was coming but I guess well be waiting a little while longer!
That is terrible. I hope your doc has a right now plan, bc being in hell like that is not okay. :-(
I am currently sitting on my porch sunning my huge legs because it is 85 degrees! It feels amazing and I don't care who sees my body today..... Enjoy the view fed ex guy and neighbors !! Lol .......
I hope all you miserable bumpies can sleep tonight and @devyns2nd a permanent foley is where id draw the line and say let's get this baby out!!!!
@klkonwi glad you are having a good day and enjoying your chillax time outside in the sun. We're all gloomy and rainy today.
For myself, my mood suits the weather. Yesterday was a good day energy and mood wise, today I don't want to do sh!t, am tired, and generally feeling bleh. I did do some laundry, tho. Hooray, something productive done.
Wah! Someone bring me my baby and let's call this a day.
Luckily all is well though. Feeling well and baby is doing great, able to return home after a few hours once things regressed. Triage doctor suspects it's early labour, guess we'll see.
