Love my yoga as well, and usually I practice hot, so now it's a big change. I miss my sweat sauna!

@sandbridge1030
"The Art of Racing in the Rain" is one of my all time favorite books!!! It kind of made me look at my dogs differently! And it also made me leave the tv on for them when I went to work.

sarajean5682

1. I bought flavored decaf and I'm drinking it this morning.  It's pretty good.

2. I work from home so we don't have to worry about child care.

3. On the days my H works days or teaches (a couple times a month), DS drives me batty because my H normally has him outside all day and I can't when I'm "working" from home.

4. WFH allows me to pass gas all day and not feel bad about it.  I'm SO gassy today. 

5. I have a morning meeting via facetime every morning at 8:15.  I usually roll out of bed at 8:05.

6. I'm really, really not looking forward to weeks 34+ .  I'm only 5'3" and a petite person.  Baby has nowhere to go at the end. I was ridiculously uncomfortable with my son at the end and he was only 6lbs 13oz. 

7. I would do it 100 times over again to get my little man.  He is my everything. 

8. I'm really glad TB exists.  I would be going crazy if I didn't have anyone to "talk" to about being pregnant. 

9. I want 2nd Tri to come quicker and then it can all slow down.  I LOVE 2nd tri.  I feel amazing!

10. UGH ... It's only Tuesday!!  Boo!  

edit spelling

Sail6va

1. My DH has been at sea the entire time I've known I was pregnant and I'm pretty sure my emails aren't doing my pregnancy symptom justice because he doesn't seem to have quite enough sympathy.
2. I have found a secret thrill in telling strangers I'm pregnant. It's only happened twice but we haven't told anyone else yet so telling the fitting lady at J.Crew and the cashier at Books-a-Million was pretty exciting!
3. I have been drinking my orange juice and milk out of wine glasses since I gave up wine.
4. My colleague called last night at 8:30 but I was asleep. I'm trying to make up a less embarrassing reason that I didn't pick up to tell her when I call back.
5. I'm a teacher and I'm so excited to start putting my classroom together next week!!
6. I have a secret board on Pinterest where I've started putting baby room ideas together.

Christinekeyser

nursewinnie

1. I'm terrified of getting morning sickness, like to the point that I'm paranoid about every possible symptom.

2. My dog is altogether adorable and annoying

3. I think my boyfriend is annoyed by the fact that I pass out every night by 930

4. I just moved into a new house two days before finding out I'm pregnant

5. My father can't keep a juicy secret to save his life. He's already told all of my aunts (there are 4) and his best friend that I'm pregnant. (I'm only creaping up on 6 weeks now)

6. I'm afraid I will out on so much weight that I can't get it off after the baby

7. Yesterday I couldn't get enough to eat. Stomach growling even 30 minutes after eating a whole meal ( see why above mentioned fear of getting huge is on my mind? Haha)

8. I'm all about tennis shoes. I have way too many pairs and yet I still keep buying them

9. My mother always knew what she was having without any ultrasounds. She wouldn't even look up other gender names because she was so certain what it would be. She has decided I'm having a girl. I hope she's right ( she was with both my brother an sisters children)

10. I wish my boyfriend were more excited about my pregnancy. Although, I'm pretty sure most men react about the same way as he is.

tnishio

1. My first ultrasound is tomorrow and I'm super excited.

2. Since we did an IUI with fertility drugs we had 3 follicles and could potentially have multiples.

3. I would really, really like to have twins.

4. I'm worried because I haven't felt morning sickness yet.

5. I hate all dried bean and the dishes they're used in except for baked beans & any dish with garbanzo beans.

6. I haven't had a good night's rest since 7dpo.

7. I'm afraid my work is going to think something is up with all the toilet breaks I've been taking.

8. I have about 100 cookbooks but I usually only use about 10.

9. I'm struggling with how much & the many types of food I should be eating now.

10. I realized last night how very little my Japanese husband understands my food limitations last night. When I told him that salmon is good for me; he recommended that I eat it raw in sushi. I thought he was kidding at first. Then I realized he wasn't. :-S

hopefulmom88

1. I'm so gassy and DH is too (sympathetic pregnancy or just being a man, I don't know)

2. We both are in the bed by 8:30.

5. I will be shopping for maternity clothes this weekend.

6. I can't wait to take this kid to Disney World

7. I can't wait to play with all of the toys we buy this baby.

8. I think it's a girl and i caught DH calling it a girl the other day.

9. I'm already watching Disney and kid type movies ( you know to get ready for baby).

10. We already have everything we need for baby which is good because I feel to scared to buy anything for this baby right now.

douglamj

1. I can lick my elbow (I guess it's supposed to be physically impossible)

2. The reason I can lick my elbow is because I have Ehlers Danlose Syndrome, which means all my ligaments are stretched more then they should be.

3. I have dislocated almost every joint in my body numerous times.

4. The above makes me super nervous to have children and what it will do to my joints

5. Enough of the sap story...Hubby surprised me with iced coffee this morning (which I desperately needed so I could shit again)

6. My boss isn't giving a shit about things that he should give a shit about and it's pissing me off

7. Being pregnant never ceases to amaze me everyday

8.  Seeing the miscarriages announced on this board scares the shit out of me! I pray everyday for those women.

4. My 14 yo DS just left for four days to go camping with friends. I am super sentimental about him growing up and eventually moving away. I will miss him for the next four days. He's the greatest kid ever and I am so proud to be his mom. 

5. I should be showering or bathing right now...but I'm not.

6. I think my oldest son knows I'm pregnant. He told bf that he makes great eggs, and he can make them for him on Father's Day next year. Bf currently has no children. :-)

7. I would like to find time to watch the Matrix today, or maybe a comedy. A movie. I'd like to watch a movie today.

8. I look "thick". Not skinny anymore, and not huge, but I feel and look like a lump and it bothers me. I'm looking forward to at least looking pregnant, then people won't have to wonder if I'm just getting fat.

9. I'm still not looking forward to telling my ex husband that I'm pregnant, but I'm not as afraid of telling my kids now. 

10. I hope today goes well.

10) I'm ready for a nap!!!

vanvoorhis-101

1. I have never done one of these.

2. My bellybutton was pierced when I got pregnant with my son. I didn't take it out until I was 4 months and it didn't have time to heal properly so it healed in a stretched out state and looks weird now. You have been forewarned if you have a bellybutton piercing.

3. I have eaten a donut the last three days in a row. I think I need an intervention.

4. Yesterday the county repaved our road with chip and seal which actually makes me happy. It was paved normally before and people drove too fast. Now that there is gravel on it people are forced to drive slower and I am hoping it will cut down the traffic altogether.

5. I have too many zucchini. I have frozen it to use for bread later, I have made bread, canned some and I still have some fresh.

6. I also have green beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, broccoli, and peas from my garden. I am canning, pickling, and freezing the extras.

7. The idea of trying to do all this gardening and take care a two year old and newborn next year freaks me out a little.

8. I have three dogs.

9. We were planning on raising chickens next year, now I don't know.

10. I can shoot a moving target with a shotgun, that makes me feel a little bit like a badass.

4. I'm already dreading the "do you know where babies come from" conversations.

5. I'm scared to tell my boss. I've barely been at my job for a year.

6. I have to figure out how to hide me not drinking around family over Labor Day.

7. I'm suppose to run a half marathon w/ my friend in the next few months. I don't know if I still want to train and do it.

8. I'm really hoping my 2 other close friends get KU soon! One already is.

9. I'm stopping here lol.

sarajean5682

@douglamj Not going to lie the last 6 weeks SUCK! At least for me. You can't bend, you can't breathe, forget about any shoes with laces. I was GINORMOUS. The pic doesn't even do my belly justice.
