  • I'm trying to make my grocery list and menu for this week and I just can't think of anything. Can we just have cereal and frozen pizza for dinner every day this week? Ugh.
    that sounds exactly like first and second trimester with my third baby! the week was like sandwiches, cereal, pizza, sandwiches, cereal haha. then husband would grill one night and we would eat with my inlaws the last night.

    After sleeping horribly and finally getting back to bed 8-10am I just napped 12:30-2pm... so yeah I haven't gotten any of my checklist done today which I really want to do.  Its bin night so I relish the idea of being able to clean and just throw things away... if only I could muster up the energy to get up off my butt

  • ok.....so a question for all you ladies about your first pregnancy (or those currently in their first pregnancy).....did you find one day that your baby belly just kind of "popped out" one day? I was able to comfortable wear my work pants last week (Friday was absolutely fine) and this morning there was no way I was going to fit my belly in them....lol...even DH said something this weekend about how it looked like my belly just came out of now where.....


    Guess its time to shop for maternity clothes......Just thought I wouldn't have to this soon....only 14-15w along.....

  • i don't quite remember, @sparkE82, but i think for me with my first it was more gradual; definitely just "popped" up this time though

  • And...my progesterone shots are being shipped today!  I'm excited :)  There is only a $33 copay with them- its a brand name drug at that!  Every time I hear cheap bills like that it makes me feel good knowing I switched jobs.  With my old insurance they wouldn't have been covered at all. And even genric ones would be too expensive with the high deductible insurance.  All in all today has turned into a pretty good day :)

  • @SparkE82 with #1 I didn't get very big and what I did gain was gradual. But Thursday I went to bed looking bloated and Friday the babies had turned or something and I looked huge.

    @charley15 I know what you mean, when I went to get my prescription last time for the month, I looked at what it would have cost without insurance and it was like 1200$ crazy what they want to charge

    This shot originally costs $1440 PER SHOT.  My copay is $33 for the entire box.  That is a HUGE difference! It should not cost anyone $30,000 out of pocket to make sure they can keep a baby alive in the womb.  NICU? Yes.  Emergency surgeries?  Sure.  a Friggin shot!?  Hell no.

    So really random, but for anyone that is a Taylor Swift fan and/or a Ryan Adams (I am the latter, although if I were tortured I might name TSwift as a guilty pleasure...), Ryan Adams' cover of 1989 is now streaming on Spotify. Which I find funny since Swift removed her music from Spotify. Anyway, as most things Ryan Adams does, it is pretty darn good.

    @SparkE82, I can't wait to pop. I just look fat! 

    Hello to you all and have a great day! I switched off the AC this morning and am hoping it'll stay off until well after baby is here!!!! :) 


    I'm not really sure that I have "popped" in the same way you are thinking.....I think I still just look fat....but now NONE of my pants fit, and I weigh the about the same as last week so I know its not water weight, etc.... I think with my early weight gain I will probably just look fat to people that don't know me for a while yet....however its almost all in my stomach area as my pants fit everywhere else just fine.....just can't get the button to close comfortably anymore (some pants not at all....lol)

    The app crashes, but I go to thebump.com using Safari and use the website. Then I don't have to worry about the app crashing, and I'm still able to use my phone.

    I used to be secondary on my mother's account but she quit paying for it (I paid for 2 years for her then she didn't pay the 3rd year :( ).  I definitely want it!  I used to use my last paycheck of June to go stock up on stuff for the summer so we wouldn't run out and I wouldn't have to use my unemployment money on little things like toilet paper, soap, dog food, etc.  My mom never used it at all.  Now we can definitely use it again for toiletries (I go through toilet paper like no one's business now that baby likes to karate chop my bladder :) ) and we can stock up on diapers/other baby things.

  • Grrr...and its going to be even harder dealing with the last 30 minutes of work- again my boss is out and probably won't call me till 10 minutes before I have to leave.  And now Pandora has decided to NOT work.  I sit here in silence...

  • My husband woke up this morning with a horrible cold, I'm honestly afraid to text him for fear that I wake him up while he is trying to sleep.  I'm going to go to the store and attempt some homemade chicken noodle soup for him.

  • Took my wonderful sister back to the airport today... And cried like a baby when she had to go through security. Then got to work to get my schedule and found out that since I put notice in for my last day to be October 29th (moving!) that they've decided to slowly cut my hours out, so that other people get trained to do what I do.

    So now I'm lonely again and my job is slowly sucking my disposable income away from me.

    But the baby is moving a lot today. And thats really cool.

    And DH says he's getting me a dog when we get to nevada.

    Hope everyone is having a good Monday.
  • I need to rant. Monday's not a great day to begin with is it? It was 'meh' all day, just been a little tired and cranky. Stayed late as had tons of stuff to grade. Came home to find my damn dog had chewed up my green card. The one I keep in a drawer. No idea how she got it. Guess how much it costs to replace? Oh just a mere four hundred and fifty dollars. Because I have that much money just lying around for such circumstances. I'm beyond livid with that creature. I'm just beyond livid right now. Ok my rant is over I'm going to go cry. Also, sorry for being such a Debbie Downer. Sincerely hope that my day is the worst of anyone's and that you are all enjoying yours. I need to go find a good snarky thread now to make me laugh lol.
