How do you GIF....I'm old and they were just starting the last time I was on the bump!
I just google search something like, "jersey gif", go to images, open pic, right click, copy image URL, and use the insert image option and paste it there!
All the talk about winter is making me jealous... It's been in the 90s foreverrr in Texas, still wearing tank tops over here. I am SO excited to have missed being giant and pregnant in the middle of our 100 degree summers though! My 2 year old was born at the end of August, and it wasn't fun!
I have my blood test today. I don't know why I'm so nervous! I mean, I had positive hpts, haven't started AF and just feel pregnant. I still can't wait to hear my doctor say I'm pregnant. After I get the results, I'm going to call my ob and make my first appointment. Excited for that!!

It's so much more official when you hear it from a Doctor for some reason.
I remember mine making fun of me last time,
Dr: "How many tests did you take?" Me: ...."4 or 5" Dr: "Why doesn't anyone ever believe it, they always have to hear it from me" me: "thats why you get paid the big bucks"
@RMR7779 What part of Texas are you in? I've been so sick of summer weather but we finally had a nice day in the upper 80s today that had me feeling ready for fall!

Chick behind me at work is using chlrox wipes to clean her desk. I'm thisclose to vomitting from he smell. Send HALP!
That sucks. I was at an outdoor dog show yesterday and a spectator was smoking nearby and I kept having to walk away. Asshole, people who smoke should walk away from a crowd not me!!!
Stopped at Starbucks for my usual iced coffee this morning and I could not drink it! Not I don't know how I'm gonna stay awake and actually parent! Can't wait for nap time.
@RMR7779 I'm in Paris, so you aren't too far from me! Holy moly the weather today was even better than yesterday! It was like fall decided to show up over night!

I am so irritated. Last weekend I went to the craft store and asked them how to make a chalkboard because I wanted to use one to track my pregnant belly. So I bought everything they said, followed all their instructions. I just tried to erase it so I could get ready for the five weeks board. And it didn't erase!! At all. I'm so frustrated.

Michaels sells pre made mini chalk boards. That's where I got mine and it was like $4!
Oh man really? I took it back to the place i got it and they are going to repaint it for me and "season" it, which apparently they forgot to tell me to do in the first place. The only bummer is I have to leave it there for the weekend. I'm going to my parents house the weekend, so I was going to have my mom take the picture. I was hoping if she took it rather than prolong my phone up on books to take a selfie. Oh well. At least they are fixing it for me.
That sucks that they didn't tell you to "season" it. I'm glad they'll fix it, at least!
I'm super mad at myself. Housekeeper thought she was being helpful by stacking the infant car seat on its base (but not locking it in!) on top of a chair. And when I went to move it somewhere safer, not realizing they weren't attached together, I ended up dropping the very heavy base straight on my toe. Yowch!! I don't THINK it's broken, but it's been an hour and it still hurts, ugh. And now I have to email the manufacturer and find out whether or not I need to replace the damn base, since it's been dropped. UGH.

Mom of sons "Alpha" (Feb 2012) & "Beta" (May 2016) Pregnant after 4 losses via IVF/FET with daughter "Gamma" (EDD Oct 2, 2019)
DD ended up sleeping in our bed because she woke up at some ungodly hour and I was way too out of it to try and get her to go back to sleep in her toddler bed. DH got up at 6:30 to go sleep on the couch because DD kept kicking him. But DD woke up and followed him. This was me for the next hour.
Having a bad cold when you're pregnant is no fun. My son brought it home from daycare. I remember just trucking through it with my last pregnancy, but this is one is brutal. Any suggestions?
Ok so here's a rant. I just got f***ing yelled at twice in two days for leaving dishsoap next to my sink. I've worked here for over two years and they have never complained about it before then I come in yesterday to find a passive aggressive note from our lead complaining how I didn't close my room according to guidelines (which btw I went into her room before I left yesterday and had to finish closing it down according to guidelines!) and this morning my manager told me "keep your shit off the counter"!! Really?! Add to this the insane MS I've been feeling the past two days being very intense and I just went in my room sobbed. Of course I'm an ugly crier and I couldn't get myself to stop so when I went to grab my client I was all red and gross and had to pretend I had allergies. Do the managers notice that I was so upset? Yes. Did they care or talk to me about it? No! I love my job but I hate some of the people I work with. I can't wait to leave this place.
Rant (irrational one since obviously I care more about healthy baby than weight): I weighed myself this week like I usually do. I gained 1.5 lb. I'm irritated even though I know I shouldn't be. I'm short but about a size 6/8 depending (BMI is just barely "overweight" but BMI is also bullshit since I have a decent amount of muscle). I work outevery day, I still count calories, I've given up my wine obviously (though I need to watch my sweets and my weekend eating).
There is no way in the last week I've eaten enough calories to gain 1.5 lb of fat. Zero. If anything, I've been stressing about getting enough calories in this week...yeah, apparently that isn't a problem after all. Anyone else gaining early? I know I'm getting a lot more water in me and I'm clogged up (TMI, sorry) but 1.5lb in a week is a lot for me.
@mkemommy I refuse to weigh myself. I know I where I was before the positive test so until the doc weighs me....I'm not thinking about it. I gain in my belly and boobs first and I can't even button most of my pants. Stupid bloat. I'm stopping at Old Navy or something today to get bigger work pants.

I should probably follow this mantra too. I wouldn't care as much if I didn't have a trip planned to India in a month (H is from India and we go back every now and again). The last time I went I had gained a bunch of weight because of my dad dying, switching jobs and getting married all in the space of 6 months. People thought I was pregnant (and asked H if I was...yeah THAT was pleasant).

Except I shouldn't because I won't fit them in like 3 months. It's like cruel torture.
But I'm also nowhere near big enough to see any cute maternity clothes yet. And really should unpack what I have first.
