I remember when I performed In my high school play. I was never someone that loved the spotlight but I knew it was important to learn how to work on a team and stand in front of people! I wasn't very good but my dad was super proud and I felt like a million bucks!! It was pretty awesome!

EDD/weeks: Feb 5, 2016

Baby size(what fruit): sweet pea

Symptoms: well, hard to tell because I'm effing sick, too, with some funky cold.

Rants/Raves: I hate being sick. I'm TIRED. And I'm at work.

Gtky: what accomplishment stands out in your mind? It doesn't have to be the thing you are "most proud of" (but it can be). It could also just be something that brings up a great memory! Hmmm... The first thing that comes to mind was when I was in college and was the equipment manager for a first aid group (we offered volunteer medics and first responders for the football games and other events on campus) and I prepared a detailed proposal for money from the athletic department to make sure we had plenty of nice, good, awesome equipment and they gave me every dollar I asked for!

EDD/weeks: Feb 5, 2016

Baby size(what fruit): sweet pea

Symptoms: SOOOO TIRED.....headaches in the morning, sore boobs, acne, coffee aversions

Rants/Raves: I'm really not loving the sore boobs, I can't sleep on my belly because of it... I thought I had a few more months before I had to stop sleeping on my belly.... :-(

Gtky: what accomplishment stands out in your mind? Being successful in a male dominated field and passing my licensure exam on the first try, I'm a structural engineer.

EDD/weeks: 2/12/16 5 weeks

Baby size(what fruit): apple seed

Symptoms: Nausea, sore boobs, huge bloat belly, SPD and round ligament pain twinges, super tired, acne, food aversions. Smell aversions You name it, I've got it.

Rants/Raves: The smell of asphalt. I remember this from when I was pg with my first (who was also a February baby) it seemed like everywhere I went someone was doing asphalt.  The smell of asphalt is making me want to hurl. Bleh.

Gtky: what accomplishment stands out in your mind? It doesn't have to be the thing you are "most proud of" (but it can be). It could also just be something that brings up a great memory!  Getting my Masters degree,  It took me 9 years, because in that time, I had 4 babies and my husband almost died (he had severe septic and toxic shock and flesh eating bacteria and all his organs shut down and he was life flighted and on life support and wasn't expected to make it.) and my mom did die during that time.  So I am pretty proud of persevering to get a Masters degree, in the face of a whole bunch of craziness.

EDD/weeks: 2/19/16 4 weeks

Baby size(what fruit): poppyseed

Symptoms: light infrequent cramps, hungry

Rants/Raves: I get hungry more often and I feel like it's too early to want to eat all the food!

I ran a marathon in January. I was super undertrained (though I've done half marathons, so I'm not a stranger to running). I was going though a rough time, both emotionally and physically, but with DH's support, we got to the finish! That's one of the things I love about DH- he will tell me when he thinks it's a bad idea, but will still support me when I insist it's not.

I just got a promotion at work. This is huge because I work weird hours in my current position and I work weekends. Once I start the new position I will work Mon-Fri. My kids ask why I have to work every Sunday so I am so excited.

Yup.  DH is great now.  Just a scar to show from it.  After the surgery I could stick my spread open hand in his wound up to my wrist.  He got it from a boil on his thigh and it all happened when I was 6 mo pregnant with my 6th baby.  It was 8 years ago.  And yet, I still miss my mommy. Thanks for your comment!
