@purplestarz every single morning!! I'm glad there's a good number of us on the west coast to hold it down.
I also think it's funny when 2:00 hits and all the east coasters have disappeared because dinner/family time/homework. And are almost completely gone by 5:00-6:00 because bedtime. Makes evening catch up easier on our end at least!
So my boss (56 yo man) just came into my office and was making small talk about the baby, my lunch, etc. and then just sat down in one of the chairs in front of my desk and read his newspaper, in silence, for 10 minutes. Wut?

@curlyq423 he's super awkward. Like, very nice, makes a lot of dad jokes, yet also very intimidating because he can be a mean scary asshole attorney. But I actually really like him. But yea, that was weird.

@carries2018 Poor thing. It's always bittersweet when they are sick. I feel bad for them but that is about the only time DS will snuggle with me too.

It's end of month for me tomorrow, I've gotten no work done today and it's an hour from quitting time! I love ya, but I'm out probably until Monday. I'll try and check in for board approvals but that's it.
I am sitting here clicking refresh on my amazon orders list.. waiting for it to say that my doppler has been delivered because I'm too lazy to keep getting up to check for real. Wherrrrre is it??
I got DD to nap at 2:00. It's been an amazing 2 hours of quiet time in which I should've been napping too, but was Bumping instead, because of course I was.

Give them your cell phone number and they'll text you when it's delivered. Best thing ever!
Same here @sdarling2010! I said I would get a little work done, and instead I've been stalking the UPS man and stalking birth announcements on TB for the past 2.5 hours. One downside of people moving to FB groups is that they stop posting in the BMBs. I want to see more twin birth photos and stories! Booooo.
Totally AWing!! Felt first flutters as I sat down on the couch after dinner! It's exactly where I have been finding the HB- off the the left lower pubic region, maybe 3 inches from my belly button south, and 2 inches to the left. Oh how I missed this!!!
I'm pretty disappointed in myself for not finishing even half of my McDonald's fries at dinner. In all fairness, I did eat a big thing of potato Oles from Taco John's also. Because normal families stop at 2 different drive thrus for dinner and pregnant woman get fried potatoes at both places.
@canonmom413 Yayyy!! I had my quickening on Monday which was a new feeling from DS's first kick. DS was a solid one kick "yo mum I'm here!" at 16 weeks. LO was just after 14 weeks and felt like very light delicate taps or pulses very low down the belly. It makes everything feel so much more real!
I was really excited that today is Friday, because we get to wear jeans on Friday, until I realized that none of my jeans fit comfortably. I finally gave in and ordered some maternity ones, but they won't be here until next week.

@beezemarie back when i used to work i used to love fridays for that same reason.
Yesterday i had to search CL for a doppler, found sonoline one for 60$CAD... Just had to do it cause i had read too much about it ( not on google but on 017 lol).
@canonmom413 lucky u *heart eyez* i was conviced i had felt him/her move but on tuesdays apointment dr said it wasstill early since i am a ftm. Totaly ignoring her!
@Yasandson I think I was closer to 18 or 19 weeks for DD1.... 16 weeks for DD2 .... its totally possible. Is your dr. a male or female? A mom themselves? If answer is male or not a mom, then they don't know!
@canonmom413 dr is a woman (one.cold.woman) and i just assumed she has no kids cause of her lack of empathy. But i kind of feel stupid assuming now. Def asking next month. Im going with Dr @canonmom413 as im 18+4 and ive felt him/her on monday!
@yasandson I felt my first move without a doubt by 17 weeks. I'm sure I felt her before that, but assumed it was gas because I didn't know what it felt like.
I always heard people say things like flutters or a cricket running across your stomach. I have never felt that. It's always been jabs. My kids are mean to me lol
Ok, ffs. What A-hole decided it would be totally fine to put an upclose picture of a freaking spider on the MSN news feed?? I may need to torch my computer now.
I swear at times I feel some little movements going on in there. But then I remember how gassy I've been and think maybe it's Just that. I can't remember when I felt anything my first pregnancy.
After watching another youtube video I now realize I did not hear heartbeats but instead heard vaginal arteries or whatever. #homedopplernoob Soooooo..... going to try again this morning. It took me awhile just to find those last night so now I'm regretting getting the doppler so soon! I forgot I'm only 11 weeks and it can be really hard to find on a home doppler this early.
@tallmomma29 when I wasn't sure in the beginning, I would try to find *my* heartbeat first, and verify it was mine by holding a finger to the pulse in my neck. Or wrist if that's easier for you. Then, I felt well equipped to go in search of baby, which is much faster.
@yasandson just chiming in on what others have said. I clearly felt movement with my first at 17 weeks. Yes, that is early, because most FTM don't feel it until around 20 weeks. But when I told my doctor, she said that was entirely possible. I'd say, if you think you felt it, then you did
October 2017 June Siggy Challenge -- "You Had One Job!"
I tried again and I found at least one actual baby heart beat! I have to get working so I gave up on trying to see if I could find another one for now (not even sure if it's possible to find/distinguish two this early)! But phew! I feel relieved to have found one. The baby is hiding out right behind the artery or whatever it is because I heard a wooshing sound with a really faint stampede of horses in the background, and then once I wiggled it around a bit I found a good position to hear the faster heartbeat.
I thought I felt flutters yesterday and just now I felt them again, but I'm a FTM so I don't know if it's real or not. It felt like someone lightly drumming their fingers on the inside of my belly, low down? I'm 16w tomorrow and I have an anterior placenta so I didn't think I'd feel anything for at least another 4 weeks but this isn't what gas feels like... I don't know whether to be excited or not!
This time every year I get stressed and think about how I need to really find a new job. I love the girl's in the property management office but they tend to take off and just put signs on the door to call them if someone needs something.
Well my broker ALWAYS pops his head in there and sees they are gone and for some reason always asks ME where they are, and bitches to ME about them being gone. I am not their boss as far as I am aware and they definitely do not come tell me anytime they plan to be gone.

My boss brought a few jars of her homemade pepper jelly with some cream cheese and crackers to work today. I may have single handedly ate a whole jar full. I used to not like it but man it's so good right now!!!
Arrggghhh DH is trying to convince me to go get an elective ultrasound next week. I was staying strong and resisting but it's a lot harder with this peer pressure!
@yasandson I'm a FTM and I had a doctor appointment yesterday (I'm only 15 weeks). My doctor asked if I had felt movement yet and I answered honestly which was basically "I have no idea maybe a few times". My doctor said it's entirely possible that early but also totally normal to not be sure. (I'm not counting it at this point because it may be gas may not I really don't know. It's very questionable) But I definitely think it would be possible for you.
