@foxslaw‌ we love workaholics! Though just thinking about some of the episodes now is making me gaggy. I'm telling my principal today that I'm pregnant! I want to let her know before we start meetings next week. I'm sure it will go well, but I'm oddly nervous, maybe just because it makes it all the more real!

I am hoping to do this today too. I sent my principal an e-mail to ask of his availability. I am sure he has a suspicion since I told him I needed to meet with him but it was nothing bad. Good luck today! I am also very nervous.

@jaztaz1 - one of my friends also did this. I was not happy, but I did end up bringing a gift and then spending a little less on her wedding gift. She was a pretty good friend so I felt really guilty not doing so. I had to get an engagement gift, bridal shower gift, and wedding gift - all within the year. <-- tacky.

No SO TACKY I can't even talk about it. Wine in a cute bottle with a ribbon. You're welcome. Honestly though, I've never been to an e-party. Seeing your selfie bling pics all over IG and facebook is enough for me....

I'm wearing maternity jeans for the first time today.

Question-the elastic seems tight! It's under belly style. The actual jeans are my size and fit my butt/thighs, but the elastic band is tight. Is this normal with maternity jeans? Do I just get used to it? Do I just have pants that don't fit right? They're cheaper target jeans, so I'm wondering if that's the problem. Right now size my blump isn't that big, it's kind of squishing on my stomach rather than under. Maybe it's better once my stomach gets bigger and it is truly "under the belly" rather than around my waist?

I have that prob. I don't like the under waist kind...but that may just be me.

@kismetjess‌ So it doesn't get better, huh? You like the over stomach kind? Maybe I need to stick with those. Though right now there's way too much fabric with those.

Have I said yet how much I hate this stage where regular clothes don't fit but I'm not quite ready for maternity clothes?

I'd bring a bottle of liquor or wine to the engagement party. @jaztaz1

Why is my tagging not working? NVM, I fix it.

Good idea... I just hope its not re-gifted back to me at the baby shingdig. lol

@jaztaz1 - so much the better, so get something you like so you can enjoy it. Just in case!

Completely understand. My non-maternity clothes fit, but they are very snug. So, it is not comfortable at all. I am not ready to break out the maternity clothing yet, so I am hoping a belly band will do the trick.

Warning - Mine may be a bit sad!!

Last night while loving on one of my fur babies, I found a lump. My parents lost 2 dogs in about a year to cancer, so I'm freaking out a little. DH went outside and I looked at her and started crying and told her she wasn't allowed to have anything wrong with her because mommy couldn't handle it right now. Really ever, who am I kidding?? I've made her an appointment with the vet tomorrow to have it checked out. I'm hoping it's just a cyst or something.

Your vet should aspirate it (poke it with a needle to get a sample) and can let you know if it is anything of concern. I am of the opinion "when in doubt, cut it out". I know surgeries are expensive, but anesthesia is very safe now and getting a mass out is better than "watching it".

SOAPBOX: Many veterinarians will tell you it is fatty and just to watch it and if it bothers the dog to then consider removing it. You CANNOT tell by feeling it or looking at it if it is fatty or not. If your veterinarian says "just watch it", please seek a second opinion. It should be aspirated and diagnosed. Hopping down off the box......

mandamoochie · August 2014

Im relatively sure I felt the baby a couple of times in the last couple days.. im past 14 weeks and its my 2nd pregnancy...

My problem is when they move higher thats where I have scar tissue.

apgruman · August 2014

My boobs have decided it'd be fun to explode over the past week...like for real. My back is starting to hurt badly. I went to get fitted for a more comfortable bra and I am measuring at a 34E. I am 5 6 and 120 pounds and I feel like I'm going to have to drag my body to the chiropractor.

Worst part: STAIRS
Best part: My husbands reaction to the new arrivals

CatLadyTX · August 2014

We had my NT scan yesterday, and it was a pretty hectic afternoon after it was over so DH ordered pizza for dinner. FYI: Pizza Hut has a Hershey's chocolate chip cookie pizza. I'm eating the leftovers for lunch (read: not with lunch).

OHHH MYYY GOOODDNNNEESSS!! I got back from the Caribbean festival (Carabana) in Toronto, and got my fill on some good food. patty and bun was my go to snack

dreemkin84 · August 2014

@Izzy0927‌ I press down pretty hard but not to a point of being uncomfortable or anything (but I have a retroverted uterus). It's probably different for everyone depending on where the uterus is and where the baby sits.

Today he/she was about an inch below my belly button and moving around a ton. couldn't even get a steady rate on the monitor. Little stinker.

easton2131 · August 2014

df woke me up at 4 am by kneeling on the floor next to the bed. I said 'what?' and he kissed me. we rarely kiss anymore and we kissed for two hours lol. it was such a sweet and romantic moment. he kept whispering he loves me and we kept smiling. We've been together for 11 years and I don't remember the last time that happend.

also, his mom got another cat, she now has three dogs and seven cats and none of the cats get attention. they're all extremely scared, balding, losing teeth, and always hide. her dogs ways attack them and she doesn't care. she keeps getting more cats BC she wants to rescue all of them but then she neglects them. I sent her a link before she moved stating the city has a six animal limit but she doesn't care, she thinks she has the best home for the animals. there's cat pee and animal hair everywhere. her dogs hump the pillows then she lays on them, the cats pee on the rug and she wipe it up w a sponge then uses said spoge to wash her dishes. (vomit) df wants to report her BC the cats deserve a much better home.

and.... I wanted an egg burrito from wawa and they were out of egg but it was still on the menu. I wanted one alllll night and when the lady told me in a nasty way I wanted to throw everything in the store at her. : )

@Izzy0927‌ Bahahahaha!!!!! Literally just laughed out loud at 0:34. In fact, I hope to use that quote one day.

Two things.

1. After reading that your mother in law sounds like a treat. I never want to eat anything ever again.

2. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE FOR WAWA TO RUN OUT OF EGGS???? Thats insanity. I woulda ran to the refrigerated thing where they sell groceries and got her a dozen. Lol

The full panel kind are the way to go. The under the belly pants just roll for me. I hate them.

I have a pretty decent recipe (says my Jamaican H) if you have no other way of satisfying your craving. They are pretty simple to make.

I'm gonna be an AW for a minute and complain. I'm just having a really bad day today at work. My boss is kind of picking on me and usually I try not to let this get to me but, I just wake up happy and think about our baby and then come to work to feel like shit. NO matter what I do, it's not enough. Sorry I'm ranting but I just feel shitty. I hope everyone's day is better!

Cookie0875 · August 2014

@oem617 and @HikerLady thank you!! I will definitely check that out too.

PikoPiko · August 2014

I have a sudden urge to take down a burger and some fries. Preferably a strawberry milkshake while I'm at it.

That is all.

Cookie0875 · August 2014

@chickyclg that makes me feel a bit better!

angelg3134 · August 2014

@cookie0875 I hope its not serious

let us know what the vet says! Wishing the best for your fur baby.

kismetjess · August 2014

So, got back from my ultrasound. Looks like my blue cake pops are going to waste...The tech was pretty sure it was a girl, although she couldn't get a super good look...she pointed out the three lines and I can def see them. YAY!!!!

can you dot them in pink icing? or use a pink bow? you can have them be pink and blue and have people guess and then afterwards reveal it another way?

I'm weird about stuff hitting me right at that point of my waist. I just always felt like I needed to pull it up or something. I'm rocking hte full waist right now. its way more comfortable!

boxerrrmama85 · August 2014

@Cookie0875‌ I really hope it's nothing-- I had a scare with my girl 2 yrs ago-- turns out she did have a cancerous tumor that we had removed and 2 years later she is still with us and loving life!

On a happier note-- I slept for NINE hours last night... I'm ready for a nap!

@KateCorum if my vet doesn't want to aspirate, I will definitely ask him too, thank you!! He's really awesome so I'm sure even if I have to ask, it'll get done. I will definitely be starting my first thread tomorrow with an update. :-SS

junebugjam · August 2014

I am super proud of myself right now, and I just want to toot my own horn. Although probably no one cares about this but me.

We're selling our house (under contract! Woohoo!) so before the showings started I gave my kitchen a good cleaning. I used Brillo on the top of the stove but when I was done, one of the burners wouldn't light. It sparks, gas comes out, but nothing. I've just dealt with it and used the other burners.

Well, the buyers had their home inspection and are asking for a credit because the burner doesn't work (among other things). Mind you the stove is only 4 years old and has 4 other working burners. So my husband refuses to give them any money for the stove.

So this afternoon I watched a YouTube video that helped me figure out what the problem might be. I used my earring to unclog a teeny tiny little hole behind the spark thing, and BAM. IT LIGHTS!!!

TL;DR - I MacGyvered it and fixed our stove with my earring.

I just made my appointment at the OB for the month after my scare last Wednesday and they were totally sweet and were like "if anything feels off, just call and we'll fit you in sooner. Call immediately, we'll make it happen." I really like this office.

In other news, the giant 18ish month project I've been working on has finally reached the point where the remaining issues are not my problem. New project time!

Also, I'm making fajitas for dinner tonight.

Hernsy · August 2014

@angelg3134 - food is always potentially a good thing, right??

JessicaxLynn87 · August 2014

My 22-month old refused her nap again at daycare today. Apparently this is a new habit. Tonight will be fun.
