Work has been super slow lately. And it leads to me googling all kinds of random crap - like, what are my percent chances of having a girl after three boys? Also, I’m charting out when I would feel comfortable telling folks the news. July 4 would be convenient since most of my family will be there, but it also seems a little soon 😬
@briannah1010 unplug the phones? Or leave a message on the answering machine... “I’m sorry I cannot take your call at this time. I’m puking my guts out because I have a parasite that’s literally sucking the life out of me. Please call back tomorrow.”
@jynjer91 I wish! LOL Thankfully I told my coworker I am close to that I am pregnant for this exact reason. So she is trying to snag as many as possible for me.
Can someone tell my baby to freaking sleep tonight? Mama is TIRED and needs a good night of sleep. He thinks sleeping is for the birds. I needed a nap today so bad but noooo. Not a chance. I hope this new baby is a unicorn because my first is a dragon. God knows I’ve earned a break.
@therealbitts I told my family right away. We’re all super close and I’ve been through enough losses that I know if this baby doesn’t stick I’ll want their support! Besides, I can’t keep my mouth shut lol
@jynjer91 ugh sorry to hear your baby won’t sleep. I had that with DS 2, and it was so rough. Honestly, he is four and still not the best sleeper. But my other two sleep great! So, I guess it’s just a mixed bag sometimes? Hang in there...
@brookert615 I hear ya! Today was the first morning since I found out that I haven’t taken a test, but it’s not because I have self control. Just ran out of things to pee on! I’m also constantly analyzing symptoms. Right now, the bloat is out of control. I’m on progesterone so maybe that’s why? I just want to wear sweatpants all day.
@therealbitts LOL same! I only took 6... Does this count toward how much having a baby costs? I’m thinking of making a list and keeping track.
@brookert615 Bumping the boobs to make sure they still hurt has also been super reassuring! I just feel like we got so lucky that I’m worried that luck could run out.
@jynjer91 Sorry! This is my first day *I think*. Yesterday I just kept snacking because I felt just so off and ate so much lol. This morning I was definitely queezy and sick and I ended up just having a smoothie even though I wished it was a milkshake .
@jynjer91 same here on the nausea! I was fine and then started to get really queasy when I was eating my lunch. Oh boy! Here we go! This part is always tough.
If there was a professional degree for peeing on test I would have it. I have a love hate relationship with line progression. Since this is probably my last time peeing on all the things I plan on going big, lol!
@DDRRT1982 my hubby asked me when the poas thing stops. I guess he's tired of my old pee sticks lined up so I can see the line progression getting darker! Hehe
Welp, my coworkers may be finding out about this pregnancy way sooner than I want. My nausea is over the top today and I am doing all I can to keep it in. Fingers crossed this goes away soon!
@brookert615 I will have to pull that card if that happens. Bonus to that is I would get to go home! And thank you! It has died down a bit, so I am hoping I am good for the rest of the workday.
This is a cool article about human endurance, but one line stood out to me: "pregnant women were endurance specialists, living at nearly the limit of what the human body can cope with."
Love that validation, because that's sure what pregnancy can feel like!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
Is anyone else really excited we won’t have to buy regular pants this fall/winter? By the time fall rolls around we will be heading into the second tri and will more than likely need maternity clothes. Bring on the stretchy pants!!!
@DDRRT1982 yessss 🙌. My last pregnancy was a winter one also. Bring on all the stretchy pants and comfy shirts. Especially around the holidays. Haha The best.
Omg , major mom guilt today. I was so tired and hardly did anything she asked me to do with her today. These next couple of months are going to be so hard. I miss my first pregnancy where I didn't have to entertain anyone.
@briannah1010 I feel the same way! I miss where I get to nap on the couch if I want to... Now I guiltily nap on the couch while she plays around me, and I feel like I'm neglecting her
Re: Weekly Randoms 6/3 - 6/9
@therealbitts - I’m telling my parents on Friday when they come to visit! It’s early, but I’ve decided that I’m comfortable with that!
Is anyone else feeling EXHAUSTED? I’m so sleepy and super annoyed whenever folks ask me to do things, including my boss!
