I'm camping which is awesome. The moan, barely slept. Usually outdoors I get my best sleep, but I guess at 35+4, it's not the same. I was extremely homesick for the first time since I was a child. Had awful dreams and now I have to wait until DH wakes up so we can get breakfast. I also miss my cats.
Another 4 hours and I'll be on the boat on the lake and hopefully get some swimming in.
My phone is on 10% and can't charge until we get to the boat.
My moan is more of a WTF, but...I've mentioned before that my MIL is an alcoholic so this shouldn't surprise me, but we renovated our kitchen and offered the old cabinets to my MIL. She and her bf came to get them while DH wasn't home. I called him when they came to be sure he knew they were coming (he did) and he jokingly said "make sure they don't walk off with my tools or anything" bc they're less than savory people. Well, we have a pepsi drink machine in the garage that dh stocks with drinks and beer...So when DH gets home, he had talked to his mom and apparently they had opened the machine and taken all of the beer with them! Like, really!? You stole beer from you son...how pathetic and desperate can you be.
Went to a dermatologist last week because I've been breaking out in a rash that my ob/gyn couldn't diagnose. Good news: it's harmless and will go away on its own (pityriasis rosea). Bad news: there's no real treatment so I just get to break out in these ringworm looking lesions until it decides to go away in a couple months. Ugh.
Inability of the Week: I can't wear above-the-knee skirts any more, because I can't sit with my legs together like a grownup lady. It's leg sprawl or nuthin, especially in the evening.
Up since 2:30 am. Started as just being uncomfortable and then my mind gets to going it was seriously a ping pong game of randomness in my head all night. Work/baby/college (8 years ago)/holidays you name it I thought about it last night...
Two people have posted about having their babies today. I know we are getting close to October but it seems to be coming up VERY quickly!! I am so excited and terrified at the same time. I am also getting really uncomfortable. I think my baby may have "dropped" because I am considering living in the bathroom from now until labor.
Took a 7 mile walk last week and my body still hasn't recovered. Today was my son's first day of first grade, and walking him to the bus stop hurt! I just want to sleep until baby comes.
We live in an older farm house and need the roof, flashing, and siding all replaced. Since my husband decided to buy a used truck that went to crap, we are putting $14,000 into that instead of the house like we planned. Last summer at this time we found bats in our attic. They are gone and have been replaced with the worldest largest swarm of hornets. I can't climb up the ladder right now to spray them and hubby is severally alergic to bees. He spent a few hours in the ER last fall from anaphylactic shock from two bee stings and has his own Epi pens. Hopefully a neighbor can help us spray them soon.
On top of that our house does not have air conditioning. We have a window unit in our bedroom that I seriously can not live without right now. When I went to turn it on last night I noticed the little vents in the front looked funny. They were covered in black mold. I'm highly alergic to mold and my hubby has woken up the last two days complaining of a sore throat. He said he will clean it tonight but I'm gonna tell him I don't want the damn thing cleaned I want it replaced!
I totally wrote a paragraph, decided it didn't encompass what I'm feeling today, and erased it.
We'll just say this: I'm exhausted. No matter how much I drink, I can't stay hydrated and 2 of my appointments are being rescheduled because my doctor isn't available. Even though I set those appointments up weeks in advance.
Oh, and I have labs to do (glucose and blood work) that have been rescheduled 3 times because no one knows how to do their job. "Friday afternoon appointment? Sure honey!" And then I check and it says Friday 9 AM. UGH.
LOL, I hear ya. Skirts went out the window about a month ago. I have about an eight to nine hour window that I can wear adult clothes. Its straight to work, straight home and into PJs and a sweatshirt. I can't even keep my bra hooked on my drive home anymore.

Pregnancy brain, the struggle is real. I woke up thinking DS had a dentist appt this morning. It was DH's morning to get him ready, so I took the dogs out back had a nice cup of tea on the porch and went for a leisurely walk around the hood. Afterwards, I mentioned the appointment to DH in passing and he said, "wait, isn't that later in the week?" I was like, nooooooooooo, couldn't be (he is notorious for forgetting appointments, so not panicking yet). I pull out my planner, yep, it's tomorrow. Holy shit mode kicked in and I'm flying around trying to get everything done in 10 min. Because I left so late, there were 4 accidents and tons of traffic on the way, and I was 15 min late. At least it was off to a relaxing start.......
i am so sore!!!!!!!!! my back has been killing me-- mid-back which is new and different and on top of that my knee has been bothering me for weeks. oh and let's not forget the hip soreness that leads to sleepless nights of turning side to side.... i know it will all be worth it when my little guy arrives but i just want some relief.
@andreabiel i also had horrible dreams last night. it sucked. what little sleep i got actually led me to feel sad when i woke up! grr.
oh, and today is apparently one of those days where i'll be eating all. the. foods. (again).
I'm over it all! My husband is across the country. It's me and our 3yr old DD. I haven't slept more than two hours at a time in weeks. I have no energy to accomplish the things I need to get done. All my daughter wants to do is play and all I want to do is binge watch netflix. We live in a 1 bdrm apartment downstairs from my best friend so at least she has been kind enough to make us dinners! But a one bedroom is hardly enough room for 3 much less 4 people. I want to move but we are in the road so much it hardly makes sense to pay a bunch for rent in a bigger place! I still have hardly anything for baby and only have 7 weeks to get everything ready! Ugh, why can't I have an easy button!! On the bright side I have pissed myself today!
My moan is my hormones. I have not been feeling myself for a few months now, and it keeps getting worse. I'm not crying at random things like a lot of women on here are, but I can't put my finger on what the problem is. Anxiety and/or depression? I am not interested in socializing, I'm irritable, I get this feeling in my chest/stomach...I can't describe it and I can't pinpoint what causes it. I am excited about the baby and can't wait for him/her to get here. My relationship with my fiancee is great; actually he is the only person these days who isn't getting on my nerves these days. I don't like feeling this way and it might be time to talk to the doctor...
Anyone else feel like this? Anything I can do to combat it? My shower is in 2 weeks and I want to be excited about it, and at one point I was...but now I just feel so blah. I really want to enjoy myself.
@VioletandRose - I would report it to your OB. It could be a tiny bit of anxiety and/or depression. Lack of desire to socialize sounds a bit like depression, but chest issues and irritability sound a bit more like the anxiety I have sometimes. Your OB will know what is normal, and probably have some suggestions to help out either way.

I have had a few anxiety attacks in the past and the feeling in your chest is how I would describe it. I can't speak to the rest of your feelings but anxiety is no fun. I could see how you wouldn't want to socialize when you are feeling that way. I am not a fan of medicine but sometimes it is what is needed. I found talking it out has worked for me after I pin pointed the cause but it wasn't easy to find the source. Best of luck!
Checked my bank account this morning and my mortgage company apparently took my mortgage payment out twice. Soo my account over drafted like $150. The representative I spoke to about it was being a complete a-hole about it and said it "should be fixed by 5pm if not it'll be first thing in the morning" if I have an over draft fee I'm going to lose it. Oh and about 10 minutes ago I accidentally knocked over a full 32 oz cup of ice water on my desk. And ruined the training docs I spent all morning compiling to train my temporary replacement with X( ( September 18th is my last day of work then I'm officially on leave. These next 2 weeks can not go by fast enough.
We finally moved into our new house and I'm happy but holy crud, unpacking is impossible! Not to mention I'm so tired I can hardly stand myself and I have no patience.
One of our custodians just witnessed me throw a massive pregnancy fit and nearly murder our copy machine. The damn thing is brand new, like as of a couple of weeks ago, and it just jammed on me FOUR times while I tried to make 25 copies. I seriously about lost it. I think I entertained the poor woman quit effectively, though.

Yes, do talk to your doctor! What you're ascribing sounds a little like me. (I have been diagnosed with anxiety and depression, which was years before my pregnancy but pregnancy hormones can impact it too.) it's not fun! And I have always disliked talking about it but they can help give you suggestions on management.
And if you aren't "into" medicine, there are other options for stress/anxiety management. It just takes some practice!
We are almost done renovating our house to put it on the market. Can't wait for it to be over. My body is sore and its harder for me to help. Being 32 weeks it makes me nervous that we are going to try to sell our house and move to a different state before baby Avi gets here.
I experienced my first pregnancy charlie horse while sleeping. I woke up screaming but was in a tent with three other girls so I had to bury my face in my pilllow. My leg is still achey and that was Friday night.
My Monday moan is dh texted me this morning to tell me the dog ate one of my cardigans. That's after we took him out all day yesterday he got a bunch of cookies and still he chews on my stuff. Ugh. I love my dog but seriously chew on someone else's things.

And I do not recommended camping while pregnant.
Instead if pointing your toes down, point them up, and stand if possible. They really suck. And when they are bad, it always takes me 4-5 days to walk normally.
I have 3 weeks at work until maternity leave. I woke up this morning, showered and sat back on my bed and I could not move. It was like the worst fatigue ever.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I called in sick and spent the day between the bed and the sofa. I think our bodies send us signals...and today mine was to relax and nap! But noooooooo to the fatigue.
I don't know whether third trimester fatigue is worse than first trimester fatigue. Eurgh!

UUUUGGGGHHHH off to battle the stupid grocery store. Can't HEB just deliver?

I'm over being a homeowner.
