I really liked Ten Things Tuesday on my youngest daughter’s board, it was fun to get to know each other better. I am also looking for distractions from my first appointment today  tell me some stuff!

1. My first appointment isn't until June 1, which is so far away
2. The nausea is kicking in already and I didn't miss this part about being pregnant
3. We're going to Disney World in two weeks and I can't wait!
4. We're telling my mom I'm pregnant tonight and the rest of our parents on Mother's day
5. I'm in an all day virtual conference for the rest of the week and I have to be on camera so I have to look put together
6. That also means I can't steal a catnap whenever I want (and DH just mooned me trying to make me laugh inappropriately)
7. We're getting a stamped concrete patio next week and I'm so ready for it
8. I finished a good book this morning, The Lost Apothecary
9. DD woke up at 6 and I wasn't ready to get up that early
10. I'm so tired. So. Tired.

@melbel0824 yes #10. So 😴. I feel like I’m getting behind in life bc I am sleeping so much 😭

the fatigue is REAL. Sometimes I feel I can barely function. Then my husband has the audacity to give me a hard time when I want to go to bed early.

1. Just realized I was wearing DH's orange crocs. (they are outdoor shoes). 
2. Am so behind on house work, but I'm so tired I can't move. 
3. Had a very nice surprise birthday party last Saturday that DH planned.
4. Am very nervous for my first U/S tomorrow, PGAL brain. 
5. Might be getting a new sewing machine this week thanks to my mom😁
6. Making pizza for dinner tonight, hope I feel like eating some of it.
7. Am thankful I was able to get some info. from my OB even though I don't get to see him for a few more weeks. (still have to book the appointment. Will be doing that after the u/s tomorrow).
8. Possibly get to have lunch with a friend this week for her birthday on Friday.
9. Am looking forward to getting my housework all done. See #2.
10. Want to start going back to the gym but am very un-motivated. (its been 3 weeks since I've gone.).

@bkjade I wish I could try these pop tarts you speak of. I’d say, get the pop tarts! 

1. My Dr office changed how they do things and they won’t set up my first appointment until I go in and get a blood test done to confirm I’m pregnant. I’m super annoyed about this because 1. I know I’m pregnant for several reasons. 2. I don’t want to take off work more than necessary and drive all the way to town just to confirm what I already know. 

2. Irises are blooming all over my yard and I love love love it! 

3. We pulled our camper out and discovered it needs some work done before we take it out. 

4. I cannot get my vitamins down. Just 

5. I’m excited for tacos tonight

6. Why are mullets back “in” WHHYYY!?

7. Lunch is still an hour away.. I don’t know if I can wait that long! 

8. My mom and I are taking my girls to a ‘princess ball’ at our nearest zoo on Saturday. They are gonna love it so much!

9. I’m on cold #2 in the last month and it sucks! Coughing fits make me gag. Ugh. 

10. Thursday we will enroll DD1 for kindergarten 😭. How!??

1. I woke up this morning & I think I'm finally losing all the bloat & it's just baby belly now. Scale says I've lost 5 lbs., too, so I'm thinking that's about right.
2. Obessed with Belvita Brown Sugar & Cinnamon cookie crackers right now.
3. Almost thru my 2nd run of Vampire Diaries.. like I'll finish today. 
4. I have an initial phone screen for a lead on a new job in an hour!!
5. We have our 2nd appointment tomorrow morning & doc confirmed we'll have an ultrasound so that's exciting!
6. I'm hell bent on buying us a new bed. King size, hopefully this week.
7. I'm procrastinating homework so bad this week, need to get my tail into gear this evening.
8. It's been raining for about a week here, but sun is finally shining today.
9. My blood sugars are kind of out of control. I've already talked with my doc & we're going to discuss more tomorrow. I'm excited to get them under control, but also nervous about what that means.
10. DS struck out last night & didn't do well as pitcher, but has another game this evening so FX he has a better game.

1. We had three different contractors show up to do work today on the house, all around the time I was in a meeting that I couldn't leave.
2. My mini dachshund hates people and was barking the whole time at these people.
3. We'll be living out of a mini fridge and two coolers until next Thursday when we get our new fridge since our old one broke last Friday morning. 
4. We are going out of town on Thursday after I get off work around noon and driving to Va Beach where my parents live to surprise my mom for her birthday and we'll spill the beans about expecting her first granddaughter.
5. I have my U/S scheduled for Thursday at noon and I'm skipping work early to go to it.
6. I have a paranoid boss that I work for and he gives everyone anxiety because of his own issues and it sucks.
7. I am dreading the drive to my parents because it's 5 hours and my oldest keeps asking if we are there yet every 10 min.
8. I signed up my oldest for before/after care for kindergarten and I can't believe he'll be done with daycare!
9. We had a pipe in our pool that kept me from fully opening the pool after well filled it back up with water. So it was once blue water and now it's a murky green and we're going away in a few days which doesn't leave time for me to open it properly.
10. I'm also the only one who keeps the pool looking nice and balancing it chemically. I wish DH would step up and take over doing things but I always have to walk him through stuff and explain it to him 20x, I'd rather just do it myself. I sometimes feel he plays dumb so he doesn't have to do it.

1. I have never had morning sickness and this is my third pregnancy and have been so sick the last three days I thought this was payback... turns out I have a stomach bug 🤢 so atleast it will be gone soon!

2. my daughters 5th birthday party is on Saturday and I feel so behind getting ready since I have felt so sick

3. I hired a local performer and her company to come play Elsa and Anna at the party as a surprise and they sing and everything!!  So excited to see my daughters face!

4. we were supposed to go to our local botanical garden tomorrow to celebrate her actual birthday but it’s supposed to thunderstorm allllll day so I made a last minute change to surprise her with bowling!

5. my son keeps getting in trouble at daycare because all he wants to do is wrestle everyone... and he is strong as crap. I don’t know how to get through to him since he JUST turned 3

6. I cannot wait for this school year to end... I’m pretty sure I count the days left every single day.... there are 27 left in case you were wondering

7. my DH and I celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary this July and are going on a trip to a huge lake in Idaho at my aunts mansion of a lake house which she graciously gifted us for the week for free 🤩 and I’m SO looking forward to going without kids!

8. My daughter has a tball game tonight and I have to act excited to come watch even though I would give anything to be in bed by 5

9. can someone send me those pop tarts we keep talking about??? Like you can’t do this to a group of pregnant ladies LOL

10. I’m so impatient to get my mini van! We decided to start our lease in July and let the child tax credit pay for the first six months of the lease so it will basically be free for a little bit!!

Wow, can I just say all your lives sound so interesting right now compared to mine! I feel like I’m in a blur of WFH from the couch, try not to get sick, try to play with DS a little after daycare and go to bed between 8-9pm! I sure hope I’m feeling better by our trip to FL in 2.5 weeks and can share something interesting with you all!!

@2b1gmom - I feel you on 10 😐

@savedbygrace1213 my clinic is the same in wanting you to come in for a confirmation test and I think it’s so stupid! My mom works in patient intakes my clinic so I play the card of not wanting to come in and have to see her & have her know what I’m there for and luckily they’ve let me skip it for all my pregnancies. I totally feel like it’s all about the money they make on the test and it drives me crazy.

1. I ate a Greek salad which had feta and forgot it was on the no-no list, but then I recalled old Bump drama about a “fingernail-sized piece of feta”. Anyone on here long enough to remember?

2. Pregnant women should be exempt from Colds/Viruses.

3. I’m ready for school to be over. I’m tired of packing lunches and washing masks.

4. All this pop tart talk is making me drool. Brown sugar and cinnamon is the best flavor. Fight me.

5. When I poop, I gag myself, so I now poop/puke simultaneously.

6. I’m binging Good Girls and have the hots for Rio.

7. I don’t want to buy my mom a gift for Mother’s Day. 

8. I’m ready for 2nd tri. I hate wishing time away, but I’m ready.

9. I want all things lemon. 

10. I’m going to Cheesecake Factory on Saturday for said Limoncello Torte Cake, but their menu is exhausting.

@eggsbene42 I thought cheese was fine as long as it's pasteurized???  What is this fingernail sized feta drama? Lol  I also laughed so hard at you gagging while you poop, I'm sorry!

I thought so too, but this list they gave says no feta or blue veined cheese. 

Basically as I recall this chick posted stating that she had eaten one “fingernail sized piece of feta” then panicked and forced herself to vomit it up. She lives on in infamy.

@eggsbene42 lol thanks for getting me up to speed!

1. I’m ready for school to end.

2. I’m planning for 3 trips this year before baby comes.

3. My 3 year old kicked me on the side of my stomach and I wanted to hurt him so bad😩

4. I need to retwist my hair but too tired #teamnaturalhair

5. Being pregnant at 25 vs 34 hits different! 

6. I don’t feel like cooking anymore but I want a home cooked meal everyday.

7. Y’all... what’s up with these pop tarts?! I want some! Lol

8. I really need to get back into grad school this year but I’m afraid that I may fail because all I want to do is sleep!

9. I kind of wish we were still in quarantine mode because people are just getting on my nerves (it may be my own little emotions)

10. Real random: But I want to be wealthy!! Where the money resides??? Lol

bkjade

@knottie9f8f24f9f8be80d3 yes #5! I had my first two in college and then waited until my mid-thirties for #3 and this one. I was like why is this sore? Why am I so tired?
