I have a horrible headache. My teeth and cheek hurt so badly. I didn't sleep for crap and now, I have to go work with 3rd through 5th graders all day. I don't think I can do this.
DH promised to make DS's lunch last night and then passed out on the couch and didn't. I can't deal with the fridge without wanting to barf. DS will be buying his lunch today.
I'm super grumpy the past three days and getting showered and dressed takes way too much effort. I just want to go to work in yoga pants.
#1 I have been spotting since Saturday night and it is scaring the crap out of me. My doctor's office was not super helpful. I spoke with the on call doctor yesterday and she was like, why haven't you come in for blood work? I was like, because your office said I shouldn't come in until my first u/s. She was like why don't you call in tomorrow and get set up for some bloodwork. This made me annoyed with the office - I feel like I should look around maybe.
#2 Bernie Sanders is speaking in downtown Hartford today so my usually easy commute was stuck in traffic and I had to cut about 100 people off to get to work! I park in the convention center garage daily, and so is everyone else today. Thank goodness I got here for 7:30 instead of some of my later colleagues.
I feel like crap too and I'm wearing a wrap dress that shows all the bloat!

@leksiL I was spotting a a couple weeks ago, and it is so scary. I will be thinking of you. Hope you get some blood work and it puts your mind at ease!
This is less bitchfest and more worry... I was about to leave the house this morning and noticed blood on one of the dog beds... Turns out one of our dogs was bleeding from her tail. I cleaned it up and it is bleeding from some kind of bump, and I'm worried it's a tumor of some sort.
I'm already getting pregnancy ragey. A lot. Last night we were walking down the sidewalk behind a guy who was puffing away on a cigarette, and I started complaining loudly about how rude it is to smoke around other people- particularly pregnant ones -that they shouldn't have the right to pollute MY air. DH kept telling me to be quiet, but the baby was in control of my mouth at that point and he/she is angsty apparently. Stupid smoker didn't seem to hear anything over city traffic. But I can already tell this is going to be a long and moody nine months... So my rage is people who smoke anywhere in my vicinity. Oh and every other driver on the road; they suck too.
6 weeks today and I am not impressed with how my coffee tastes. It's not nausea-inducing, but more like I'm a snobby food critic: "You call THIS coffee? Pffft."
Also very pouty about getting motivated to work out. It's a fabulous day for a run, and I know it would make me feel better(especially after yesterday's chicken and waffles...and fried shrimp)...but waaah. Poop.
#1 It is Monday. I am tired and want to go back to bed. And I want muffins.
#2 Completely over DH this weekend. He was grumpy and so rude this weekend. Glad we are apart today so I don't have to deal with his crappy attitude again. I can't decide if I'm pregnant or he is? Geez....
DS1: 12/17/2014 DS2: born sleeping at 26 weeks on 8/8/2016 due to chromosomal deletion Pregnant with baby 3 - EDD 9/14/2017
My husband got the kids ready for school this morning and discovered my 4 year old had ripped her folder and took a folder that was my 9 year olds that someone in the Secret Service had given him. My daughter only needed it for today (and if someone had asked me I could have given them one of the 1947482398094 other folders that aren't special to my son) and for some reason my husband wrote her name inside the folder. When I said something to him he goes "Well I can just use white out". My youngest is such a diva that despite telling my oldest all the time he doesn't have to give in to her he is always helping her, letting her destroy his Lego creations, or giving her the last bite of something. I'm so irritated that he can't have anything that's his.
1- pregsomnia may have started for me 2- I look super chic today but have no meeting and won't see anyone 3- DH's job is not being funded after this semester so I have to go back up to full time. I just put in the request. I'm tired.
My pants don't fit!!! I'm so bummed! I don't want to buy maternity pants yet, but the hair tie trick makes my pants too big and buttoned makes them too small. Waaaaaah!
BF #1: Its Monday. 'nuff said. BUT I9 can suck it up because I have my first app today.
BF #2: This is the most nasty week of standardized testing of the entire year, and my students have a project due because they keep changing dates of testing.
BF #3: I have my eval meeting today(oh joy), and because its on my prep I can't leave at lunch to be early at my appointment. grrrrrrrrrrr

Oh, Monday. Apparently exhaustion has set in for me because I slept 11.5hrs. Not looking forward to work tonight. AND I have nothing to pack myself for lunch because we didn't do any meal prep yesterday. Is it Tuesday yet?
I'm not sure if it's the relaxin or the way that I slept last night, but my left hip is KILLING me. It's at the very outside of where my pelvic bone and leg meet. Any suggestions from the runners/exercisers out there?
#2 - My mouth tastes disgusting. I've brushed and used mouthwash twice today and i'm drinking water with an orange slice. It tastes like I haven't brushed my teeth in a month. BLEGH!
Monday, that is it. I was sick Saturday, and still don't feel 100%... so I'd rather be in bed.
Coworkers who like to tell stories that I don't think most people care to hear?Or, maybe I just don't care to hear them.
My pants are tight too, which fit fine still last week. This is my first, and I'm 7w0d today... and feel like I look PG. I may need to hit up a consignment store this week for pants in a size up, since I can't do the rubberband loop on my dress pants (boo!). Jeans, sure... which I was struggling to fit into my jeans anyway (some weight gain around my hips). Hopefully I can find some deals.

I have a meeting with an advisor on Mondays at 11. At least 2/4 weeks of the month, I have no other reason to be in on Mondays until early/mid afternoon. But yet, I have to email her every week to see if we are meeting because, despite her "holding" this time for me, 1/2 the time something comes up and she can't come in, or she schedules something else during that time. And she never emails me to tell me unless I email her first.
DH didn't eat dinner last night so at 10:30 he wants the frozen stuffed scallops. And no, I can't nuke them in the microwave, 30 minutes in the oven. Then he wants me to wait up with him. Till past 11. I have work in the morning! So of course, I'm sitting at my desk exhausted and he's over here playing video games all rested. Ugh, Mondays. At least one of my meetings was canceled.

Watching my cousins 4 year old today, since he doesn't have preschool. idk if it's just me or if the little know it all is just being a brat today!!! Not to mention I'd love to take a nap and he no longer takes them the way my 3 year old does
1. I am so tired I could scream. My almost 2 year old was up from 1245-245 last night because he wanted to nurse and snuggle in bed with me. Nope, sorry kid. Then he got up for good at 545 and came in to nurse and snuggle because I was too tired to give AF.
2. Cranky dh whining about being tired and our toddler sleeping like crap the last four months after sleeping beautifully for a year and a half.
3. Cranky mil.
4. The hunger is real. I've eaten half of my lunch already and am still starving, but most foods sound awful. When I was up with ds last night I got hungry, which I never did pregnant with him. Granted, I still got 8-10 hours of sleep a night and slept like a log.
1. I can't tell if I'm hungry, nauseous, or bored.
2. I hate my relatively new job and getting through each day is painful.
3. One of my dogs was hogging the bed all night so I didn't sleep well. She even uses my pillow...we have a king size bed...DH gets 4 feet to himself, 2 of the dogs get a few feet in the middle, and I get 2 inches.
@DiFazette Hip openers (more specifically like Frog yoga poses and such) may help with that. I have sciatica and sometimes my right leg and hip bothers me, and that really helps. Also, Chiropractor helps with hip alignment and generally keeps me pain free.
@penelope4612 - just googled that. Maybe? The pain is only in the hip area. I realize now that it's my entire outer hip area from where I can feel my pelvic bone in front, to the pelvic bone in the back.
I'm so tired during the day, and fall asleep early, but once I wake up to pee in the night I'm WIDE awake and then toss and turn the rest of the night. So annoying.

It's Monday and it's beautiful out and I don't want to be at work! And I was lazy all weekend and didn't clean or grocery shop so I have to do one of those things tonight.
@DiFazette - I agree with @dmontgo - hip openers and also some IT band stretches should help. If you google you should be able to find some. It's good to stretch both sides even if the pain is only on one side. If you can pinpoint the tenderness, and it seems to be muscular (as opposed to a bone), you can also try rolling on a tennis ball to massage the area.

It sounds like your IT band I have major it band issues too. If you're familiar with yoga, pigeon will help a lot. Also if you stand up, cross your legs and bend forward to touch your toes, you'll feel it there too.
I'm not even 6 weeks and completely over coffee already. I'm a Coffee-Before-Speaking person and it's my biggest aversion. This happens every time, by it still catches me by surprise. (Baby 4!)
how will I mother and adult without it? I guess I'm off those for 9 months?
1. A late trip to the ER last night has me exhausted and on edge. I'm so snappy this morning. All I want to do is go back to sleep.
2. Due to visit to ER last night, I am still waiting to hear back from my OB. I left the nurse a message at 8:30 this morning. Get with the program lady, and call me back. I know there are a lot of other patients too, but my selfishness has kicked in right now.
We told DH's family at DD2's birthday on Saturday. My mil responded with Oh NO! (My SIL and sister watched her facial expressions too, which were apparently worse than her mouth) She didn't acknowledge DD2 when we told her so I know I shouldn't have expected more from her. Part of me is happy that she responded like that because it showed her true colors but my tigress instincts come out when someone slights my kids!
@slartybartfast I thought I put it in my previous post, but I apparently forgot. I was bleeding pretty heavily. Ultrasound came back great with a 6w6d baby, and a heartbeat! Yay, as when we had our ultrasound last week, they couldn't find the heartbeat. Betas came back right on track with where they should be in line with how far along I am. Bleeding stopped within 3 hours, but we have no idea where the bleeding came from, as there was no blood showing in uterus or inside the vaginal walls.
@shoeflypie I am sorry your MIL is such a jerk. Mine is very similar. If something doesn't benefit her in a way that she approves of, she's very condescending. She's the last one to know about baby, and I can't say I feel bad about it.

Thanks! She would've been the last but my loser FIL never showed up to the party! So he's last to know lol After her initial expression she hugged me and said 'this is 11 grandkids for us!'
For the record, they spend time with 2 of the 11... Goes to show what type of grandparents they are!
