I'm feeling like such a piglet lately! Yesterday I brought a turkey sandwich for lunch, which I ate- but an hour later I was offered a 1/2 chicken Caesar wrap, so I gobbled that down too! This morning I had a bowl of cereal about 6:15- I got to work about 8 and I was just offered a piece of breakfast pizza that I yummily ate! lol I haven't really gained a lot of weight either, but with me having PCOS and knowing what I used to weigh, everything I eat kinda worries me.
February Siggy Challenge- Post pregnancy indulgences
Oh @smushi I'm so sorry! Hope you feel better fast!! @ecwk I may have been guilty yesterday - when I'm on my computer it doesn't help out with the autofill list like my phone; one good thing about the app I guess? I'm hesitant to update my iPhone to the new iOS bc I'm afraid of things getting borked (like someone mentioned happening with this app earlier). I totally get it @kynbar5 about the genitalia sonograms - it doesn't upset me by any means, but I do find it rather bizarre to post that junk online; I'd never do it myself. But then, we are always team-surprise, so we have never gotten one of those pics.

@lightrox I'm sorry you're feeling so poorly too. Big hugs. @charley15 I'm having the opposite - I can't get warm enough! (Unless I'm sweating outside in the humid Alabama sun, which its cooling off here lately). But it happened with my first baby too; one of my first pregnancy symptoms was that I was suddenly freezing and camping out in front of space heaters (and I have a reputation for freezing people out of the house/office by keeping the AC on super cold). It only lasted a month with the first pregnancy. This time however it started after my third baby was born and has gotten worse since I got pregnant. Like my husband would be sweating and asking if he could turn on the AC and fan bc I had it hot in the house, while I was under a super heavy blanket with sweats, long sleeves, socks, and slippers on. So weird!

When I was 16 weeks pregnant with DD2, I was lying in bed one night and could clearly feel where my uterus was. I started poking at it just to see if I could rile her up, and I totally got her to kick for the first time!
So I decided to try it again with this baby last night. I'm only 14w,5d, but they say you feel the baby earlier each pregnancy. So I start prodding at my uterus and sure enough, I started to feel strong "thwacks." I felt it at least 4 or 5 times. So so exciting. I'm really starting to get anxious to feel more consistent movement!!

Good morning! @smushi hope you feel better soon! @mrspepper05 that's awesome! I can't wait to feel that again! I'm at 15w, so I imagine it'll be soon. @2goofykids Happy Birthday!!
I had an OB appointment yesterday, HB sounded great, which is always a relief. My 3 hour glucose test came back normal (YAY!) so I won't have to worry about that again until week 28... Next up, anatomy scan in 3-4 weeks & along with hoping to see healthy development, we're hoping to find out if it's a boy or girl at that time! And not going to be showing my baby's privates online! ;;)
Ok so it always throws me for a loop between the 12 week appt and 16 week appt how much weight I usually gain. 5 lbs oy! And the practical side of me knows it's baby/placenta/blood/fluid rather than me just pigging out (because my appetite has actually been down). But it never fails, it always catches me off guard. Anyway, great appointment. She said my uterus was growing nicely - I'm amazed at how high she was able to feel it and find baby. Baby's growing FAST!!!

I hate it when you are trying to relax and get a pedicure and someone is chatting away on their phone and being super obnoxious. She is seriously talking loudly about her relationship with a married guy and how she makes him take off his wedding ring. Seriously? Just trying to get a pedicure here.

This is one of those I just can't moments for me. I'd honestly be side eyeing the hell out of her. Ugh.

@Parker16772 I've actually had a lady get downright mad at me for flushing the toilet in a PUBLIC restroom just because she was on the phone. To be honest, my response was not nice at all

I think I overdid it a little today. I have one teacher here, and I'm not sure if she likes me or not. She is kinda quiet, but she does talk to me...kinda reminds me of myself come to think of it Anyway she had me Xerox a whole book page by page, which I did, and when I handed it back to her, she gave me ANOTHER one to do! My back is a little sore but I think if I just stay in my seat till 4 I should be ok (its a nice cushy office chair).
February Siggy Challenge- Post pregnancy indulgences
I have officially bought my first pair of maternity "pants." I use the term loosely because I am not quite sure if jeggings pass as legit pants, but I am going to try and pass these bad boys off as business casual. The real black slacks aren't long enough (even with the long length) and go figure the cheaper, non-long length jeggings are long enough for me.
I'm actually going to look for a couple maternity tops tonight. I look so much better in them- all my shirts are starting to get short around my tummy. I'm going to check Target in hopes of finding something. If not I may have to check out thrift shops- I am not spending a ton on maternity clothes.
I did buy a pack of cute onsies last night, the ONLY gender neutral pack I could find at Walmart. And tonight I plan on getting my first box of diapers!

Why does the last 3 1/2 hours of work before vacation take forever?
It's me smiting you because you are going on vacation. Sorry not sorry.
Does it help you to know that we will probably not take another vacation for about 15 years with 3 kids?? Because STRESS!!!
Mmmm... I think if we (7 total currently) can pile into a suv and make what should have been a 14 hr trip but ended up being 21 hr trip to spend 2 weeks with family then 3 kids should be a piece of cake lol

Dear God let these next 40 minutes kinda fly by for me- I am soo bored! Everyone left, my boss is across the street at school (once she gets there she never gets back out), and I have NOTHING to do other that chat on here.
February Siggy Challenge- Post pregnancy indulgences
What. The. Ever. Loving. Fuck. Both my bosses showed back up to the office at 3pm.... on a Friday.... NOT COOL. One of them even joked "kayla, don't tell anyone we were here on a friday afternoon"
Now I hate having to do number 2 in public places- even work (sorry for the tmi). Of course I couldn't hold it any more let alone a 1/2 hour drive home. No one is here, so I go into the staff breakroom to the bathroom. I just get comfy and I hear the outside break room door unlock and pop open. I freak, and flushed the toilet. I tried to finish but just couldn't. I cleaned up, flushed again, and came out to find the JANITOR staring at me with this weird look on her face (and by now I'm beyond all embarrassed). She asked me if I just went in there and I said yeah, so she says, "after I came out?" so I lied and said, "Yeah...". So now she is thinking she is loopy and can't remember me going in there because she heard the toilet flush twice lol! I hate going for that reason- I HATE NOSEY PEOPLE!

@2goofykids happy birthday!! @skruhmin yay for you and your uterus! @Parker16772 I just had a manicure and there were no rude customers but I always feel weird when the ladies there are speaking a different language and then laugh. In my head I'm totally like "ok they're making fun of me right now" lol.
So the girl that posted the think I am further on than the doctor says" in first trimester posted a question about being prescribed aspirin when pregnant. I really want to ask her how far along turned out to be..haha.
@ecwk- I figure they are probably talking about how bad my feet are because I don't get a pedicure nearly often enough. It's hard with a small child. I always tip good though.
omg my inlaws are taking us to Olive Garden tonight!!!!!! i think i've been talking about it so much that they took pity on me - they don't even like it haha! (they are old-country italian). i love them so much
