Hugs @Kipperoo that's so frustrating. I hadn't to take the 3 hour 3 times last pregnancy. It was awful. I will be taking my second 1 hr in 1.5 weeks. I feel your frustrations.
I ended up calling the Dr. They scolded me and said I needed to eat more protein than just a protein bar, that I am just crashing after the glucose test. I just went and grabbed some chili from the caf for lunch. I'm hoping that will do it. My eye did stop, so that's good.
Omg I officially hate Fort Bliss housing @WombThereItIs@hp_momma never get stationed here! I don't understand why last week we were told we were number 5 on the list but this week we are number 8. They offered us older crappy housing that isn't even on post "it's off post on post housing" which is similar to what we lived in the first time at Fort Hood. It's very very old housing. I'm 99.9% sure we are going to pass and we have already found a house we would love to rent. It's just so frustrating though. PCSing is the worst.
@bacorrea , the 3 hour test 3 times?? That sounds like my nightmare. I hate it so, so much. It always makes me feel like crap. I think my body just handles food in a weird way while pregnant. I eat like I normally do and I don't eat a lot of crap food or sweets, but I just really haven't gained any weight--I'm up 2 pounds from my pre-pregnancy weight. It confounds the doctors because the baby (and my belly) are clearly getting much larger. The exact same thing happened with my son...IDK...I think my body just sucks at growing babies.
@jayandaplus I stopped seeing stars/ floaters. I just feel guilty now. I was so smug about doing the glucose then eating a donut and now I'm like "I'm sorry baby!!"
@Jkp7749 sorry to hear you had a scare! thinking of you and hoping they can pinpoint what's up soon.
@RainyDays86 it's hard to not wonder what people are thinking, but even if they don't think you are a complete powerhouse of a woman, you are! So glad to hear you had an awesome appt this morning! Wishing you an eventful rest of your day!
@Kipperoo oof that's hard, hopefully just one more test.
@nda_roxybabe I was going to come and say that I often see spots when my blood pressure drops too low or my choice of food for the day has been carb loading... eat more protein girl! I totally get it as I am guilty myself for not having enough protein but if I can do a high protein breakfast I feel so much better the rest of the day!

I'm guessing someone with more "points" got slotted in over you guys. This is exactly why I am so nervous about the posting we are expecting because there is no RFO yet technically someone else with more seniority or whatever could poach it. I'm sorry you got screwed though, fingers crossed you find something nice with central air!
@Starphish18 I'm sorry, if it helps you feel better.. all doggies go to heaven
@ShadeofGreen816 it affects me & I don't directly know you or him. I can't imagine what the family is going through.. I'm hoping they find some light in their situation. I will keep him & his family in my prayers and thoughts.
@WombThereItIs I guess that's a possibility. DH is the highest rank for the houses, so there isn't really someone "higher" than us but whatever. We have found a house and DH will be there on Wednesday so he will check it out. Praying y'all AT LEAST get the RFO soon! Although we couldn't do anything with that at Sill or Bliss, we had to wait for the official orders which was super obnoxious.
DH went in to work late today because he had to get blood drawn. So when he came home to eat and change he was practically paralyzed from his right shoulder down. (Didn't want to overextend or use his arm to prevent bruising). I not only had to take his lunch out of the oven after watching him struggle for 5 mins but also unscrew the cap from his drink lol. I was like I get blood drawn all the time during pregnancy and then carry a 30lb kid and diaper bag immediately after. I swear it's worse than the dreaded man cold around here. There was much eye rolling on my behalf.
Does anyone else normally get ovulation pain when not pregant? For the last week or so, I've had dull aches in the same "ovary - area" on both sides. Is that RLP? I thought RLP was the lightning, ligament pain when you move or sneeze. This pregnancy is so much different than my first.
WombThereItIs, I just saw your siggy challenge picture and it's hilarious! Never would have thought to use Lucille and Buster as my favorite couple. I freaking love Lucille.

I feel the dull aches often. I assumed it was rlp because I usually notice it after I've carried or lifted my toddler too much. Sometimes it lasts for a few days and I know I've done too much.
Does anyone know if a 2 year old can take Tamaflu? I can't get ahold of DD's doctor until Monday. We have been staying with family and my little brother just tested positive for flu. I called my OB and she is having me take the preventative. I can't do anything about DD until Monday though, but I don't even know if she can take it. We both got flu shots but the doctor that diagnosed my brother said people with the flu shot are still getting it.
@bacorrea: I'm sorry, I don't know the answer... but can you call her doctor's office anyway, or a nurses' line?
Yeah I called the nurses line and they can't do anything. I have to wait until Monday to call. Hopefully the flu shot will protect her! My OBGYN is having me take the preventative even though I got the shot.
I spent a good hour this morning making a cost projection spreadsheet for my husband's job just to help him out, and I'm quite proud of it. I transform into Liz Lemon more and more every day.

DS took Tamiflu last March. He was only 20 months at the time.
