Tuesday Randoms!!

mehlaknee · January 2015

ok it's 2:20 here so it's barely Tuesday...

My dogs woke me up because god forbid a squirrel is in the backyard. Now I'm awake and just stressed!!

I have my NT scan this morning at 11. Anxious about that, of course. And to top it all off. Have to take my husband in for sinus surgery at 6:00 this morning which means he won't be with me at the scan. Which is fine but just hoping that everything today is uneventful...

Also. Just stuffed my face with chips and guacamole and washed it down with some cranberry juice. I'm still hungry but showing restraint...

Acid reflux is the devil.

I also obviously went to sleep too early 'cause I've been up for the past 3 hours.

bumpuser8571475 · January 2015

DH has work training/meetings late for today and the next 2 days which means he's working for 13 hours each day. So I have three long days with my toddler who is also going through a sleep regression. Fun times. I miss being able to relax on the couch all day.

mehlaknee · January 2015

Screw acid reflux! @LadyAnnibal‌

Thanks @lynnyloo‌! I hope you guys all feel better soon. I know how miserable that is!!

bumpuser8571475 · January 2015

@LadyAnnibal‌ I know your pain! I've had acid reflux for about 10 years. It's awful.

@lynnyloo‌ I hope you all feel better soon!

Beachy730 · January 2015

@emilyinparis‌ sleep regressions are the worst, and totally make you question why you had kids in the first place.

Beachy730 · January 2015

DS is still sleeping but I see his crib aquarium lights died again so he probably will be up earlier than usual today. Fucking murphys law insists that crib toy batteries can only die in the middle of the night. I actually feel thankful that they did at 6:30am this time and not the usual 2 or 3 am which leads to a blind battery change.

c-elizabethf · January 2015

@LadyAnnibal‌ Ugh, I hate acid reflux. I have GERD and when I was pregnant with dd it magnified a lot, I actually would wake up choking on acid. I can see this time it's heading that way too

bumpuser8571475 · January 2015

@Beachy730‌ Totally agree.. also about Murphy's Law always happening without fail.

Always! And now I have a kid in bed with me and Disney on thanks to that asshole Murphy.

PeepingTom · January 2015

I had insomnia until I forced myself to go to sleeping. Totally forgetting I had to wake up at 5 to get my DS's ready for school. Now I'm waiting to get my 8 year old up so he can get ready and eat breakfast. I'm super tired and can't wait to get back into bed.

mamacas15 · January 2015

@mistabinx Hope all goes well at your appointment!

JuneBug0611 · January 2015

Hugs @mistabinx‌. GL today and let us know how it goes.

I had the first cramping of my pregnancy yesterday and freaked out, full-on crying in my office. Fortunately it subsided last night so I'm feeling better now. I had my first cup of coffee in a long time yesterday, I wonder if it could be related? Or just growing uterus pains?

In other news I have now felt the baby moving 3 days in a row so I am now confident it is baby. I can't believe I am feeling it so early with this one (12.5 weeks) -- I only felt DD once at 16 weeks and then not again til 20.

Huge day at work ahead of me and it is freeeezing outside. I don't want to get out of bed. Commuting with DD in this weather is no fun.

SlurpeeLove · January 2015

I have this head cold and I'm just so tired of being sick at this point. I have a nasty cough and I can't take any more time off from work without my boss murdering me. I worked a long day yesterday and I'm sure it doesn't matter.

Oh, and I'm trying to be more positive. It snowed so there's limited chance of slipping on ice. I had a dream about my daughter last night. I have no idea if I'm having a boy or girl, but I've managed to convince myself it's a girl.

mommabmb · January 2015

If my neighbor wakes up the kids one more time with his motor cycle, I'm going to blow. up.

RWPhoenix · January 2015

So far this morning I have spilled water down the side of the Keurig trying to fill it, dropped the metal part of the Keurig on my foot trying to clean it up, stubbed my toe going up the stairs, and burned my tongue on my tea. I wonder if I should just give up and go back to sleep.

Might be time to put you in a plastic bubble. Lol

jewely24 · January 2015

Just when I think the hormones aren't getting the best of me, I leave my chai on the roof of our car this morning and spill it all down the driveway. I cried. Then I cried more because I felt so stupid. Thankfully my husband is a saint and didn't say anything and just drove directly to Starbucks to buy me a new one, while I'm sure silently regretting carpooling with his crazy wife...

c-elizabethf · January 2015

I'm 11 weeks today! And my appointment is Friday and she is using the Doppler so I'm praying things are okay. My nt scan is scheduled January 13th but I have to see about my insurance and all that, anyways dd is still asleep so I'm going back to sleep.

Rose0825 · January 2015

Twinkies for breakfast with nice cold milk all is perfect :P

mrsklm09 · January 2015

@LadyAnnibal‌ see if your dr can suggest something. I have crazy reflux (especially when pregnant) and they have been upping and changing my meds as needed to keep things under control. There is some OTC medicine you can take too (though I'm not your dr so I don't want to tell you what's ok, especially with your HG).

I'm having a not so great week. I knew moving would be stressful but it looks like DH got some bad info from someone at the moving company about them moving our car. Now, I am likely going to have to drive 14+ hours with a two year old by myself on Saturday. I already hate driving (I usually draw the line at 2-3 hours max) and we had booked plane tickets so we lose some of that money too. Why can't anything be simple?!?

traceyos · January 2015

It's snowing here. I don't think it was supposed to, just out of no where it started. I'm taking a train 2 hrs to another city for meetings today, and I'm afraid when I get back it will be icy and still snowy. It would be a really good day to curl up by the fire and read!

mehlaknee · January 2015

@mischiefmama‌ haha, it's so similar in our house. Why don't they get it?!?

Although, the last time was my fault. TMI warning:

We were in the shower. He decided to pee. The smell hit me. I threw up. Kinda maybe on him. Needless to say plans changed that night.

ahsile10 · January 2015

So I answered a phone call this morning from one of our sales reps who was calling my boss. I told him he was on his cell, and coworker asked to hold. I just dialed my bosses extension to tell him he was on hold. MY boss says, "oh, hold on just a second." Then he starts talking on his cell again.

6.5 minutes later, I have my phone laying next to me on the desk, typing, listening to him talk to someone else on his cell. Other coworker who called for him was on hold the whole time.

WTH? I just hung up.

jennaleigh23 · January 2015

have my NT scheduled for Jan 15! very excited and cautiously optimistic. and i laugh at all of you who complain about snow and cold. i'm in ottawa canada and it's -30 and EVERYTHING is ice. over the weekend we got about a foot of snow sealed under an inch of ice. good times.

We have our first beautiful snow! I love it!

We are going to gymnastics today and I am excited for H to come with us. But, he is still sleeping. Not sure if I want to wake the bear or let him sleep!

We have our first snow of the year here too. I hate snow and was really hoping we wouldn't get any this year. Booo

I am also 11 weeks today. I feel like the weeks are just flying by now. My appointment is today which will be my first time hearing the heartbeat, fingers crossed. Husband is so excited he is insisting on coming so he can hear too

Ha! I'm glad it snowed last night. It covered the ice that had started forming on top of the snow from a couple days ago. Now it looks like a winter wonderland! I actually like the snow. I just hate the ice.

ahsile10 · January 2015

I just saw that our temperature Thursday morning will be 0º and the wind chill will be -20 or something. Multiply that by at least 3 times since I am freezing my ass off with cold chills in a 70º room since I have been pregnant this time.

I get what you're saying @jennaleigh23 but the main difference is that I don't have a whole lot of appropriate clothes for 0º temps since it only happens a few times a year.

If I lived where you are, I would be prepared. LOL. I think I'm going to stop at Target and better prepare myself since I have to pick up DD new ballet shoes anyway for her class tomorrow.

I don't hate the cold; I just hate not being warm.

ahsile10 · January 2015

Also, I could totally deal with super cold if I had snow to go with it. I LOVE snow. THe more the merrier. We just never seem to get the snow!

Oh yeah, and good luck on the NT @jennaleigh23

We don't right? And if we do get it it's 60 degrees the next day and it all just turns into a muddy mess. And I second the not being prepared! Also it's not just us, it's the towns around here. It happens so rarely that we're not prepared for it and school gets cancelled all the time. I will say wearing a pair of leggings under your work slacks does wonders for staying warm at the office!

omg. I HATE HATE HATE the muddy mess. I'd rather get some snow, and let it stay around for a while and be pretty. We just wind up with mud and brown mud-snow sitting around in clumps.

I fully expect the schools to go on a delay at least once this week for the temps. DD's school/preschool NEVER closes for snow (private and no bus routes), but even they delayed last year the few times it got this cold.

I am totally picking up some leggings, and I also may have put a giant fleece blanket in my car this morning to cover up with while I'm driving.

foreverMorgan · January 2015

I love snow. I'm the only mom in my neighbourhood who walked her kid to the bus this morning.

We're having a lazy day. DH gets up at 3:30 for work. He woke me up twice. Then DDs both came downstairs at 5:20 this morning. One of the smoke detectors started beeping and woke them up. I'm so tired!

monkeydilla · January 2015

Good morning, ladies! Sorry for all those not feeling well.

It's a nasty cold/flu season, and I hate it!

I have the next two days off, so I'm just hanging out at home doing some housework stuff. I want Starbucks, but currently debating if it's worth driving there for. Decisions, decisions..

ahsile10 · January 2015

I am sort of sad that I didn't have an NT scan yesterday. Ya know, just for another chance to see baby IRL.

They did send off my Panorama yesterday. I guess the trade off of not getting to see LO this week is knowing the sex when the Panorama comes back.

ahsile10 · January 2015

@tla0623 I Looove your siggy challange pic. I just sat here and watched it like 15 times.

Beachy730 · January 2015

In case anyone was wondering, if you pee on an ovulation test at almost 12w pregnant it will tell you that you're ovulating.

inLOVEalready715 · January 2015

Good luck to everyone with U/s And NT scans! Reflux sucks! Sometimes I eat a tums and it helps my ms and they are delicious. I would puke if I smelled pee wafting up in a hot shower too. Snow here in ny too, we had some flurries before this but this is the first one to stick.

My random is that I have been avoiding washing my bras because if they shrink even a little I won't have any that fit

I already got three new ones to fit my giant swollen boobies and I want them to last as long as possible. Thank god it's winter so I'm not gross and smelly but I know these bras need washing...sorry I'm so gross

KellyinHB · January 2015

It was 78 deg. here yesterday. (sorry!)

petrichor14 · January 2015

Good luck to everyone having appointments/scans today!

My ticker says the baby is the size of a navel orange today. My two apps say pear and avocado. It is blowing my mind how much this thing has grown in such a short time, but I am having trouble even believing that there is something that size inside me right now (plus the uterus is the size of a "small melon" according to my book!) I don't even really have a bump yet, just some extra fat in the middle and a slight swelling below. How is there room in my body for a medium sized fruit?

Pregnancy is weird, guys.

rachacre · January 2015

After more than a week my cold will not go away. And my boss thinks that my cough drops are candy and helps himself.

And please, anyone wishing they had more snow, I will SO trade you. We haven't had much snow here yet this winter but I'm already sick of it. And the -40 wind chill is BS. And every year, without fail, people forget how to drive in this weather. I just.......yeah.

amfasse · January 2015

I just need to rant for a minute. DH seriously has the smallest bladder ever.. and he gets up every night without fail. I'm the pregnant one and I rarely get up in the middle of the night. Everytime he gets up, he ends up waking me up. So after tossing and turning trying to get comfortable most of the night, I get abruptly woken up about an hour before my alarm. and cannot get back to sleep. beyond frustrating!

On top of that, I got sick for the first time since getting pregnant yesterday, and at work. No toothbrush or anything to clean my mouth out. Got a peppermint from someone that seemed to settle my tummy. It was an awful day, especially considering the lovely snow storm that hit in the middle of the afternoon and forced everyone to have to leave early. I now have to make that time up.

All in all, I am crabby pretty much 75% of the day and feel sick the other 25% and I am really getting tired of DH trying to tell me he feels the same anytime I share a symptom I'm experiencing.. cuz I am so sure he's constantly nauseous and starving all day.
