Re: TTT!
2. My first doc appointment isn't until August 24th... 9 weeks +4. That feels like a million years from now :-(
3. DS is 14 months and has adjusted relatively well to our recent move, except all of a sudden he's lost his ability to independently play. It makes sense that he's extra clingy but I need some space!
4. We don't have baby gates up yet and it's the worst!
5. Going to see two of my younger siblings in a play this weekend!! I'm in IA and they're in Chicago and I rarely see them. I am so excited!!
6. Counting down the minutes to DS's 9am nap. Why am I so tired already at only 5 weeks?
7. I can't remember the deal with pregnancy and hotdogs... I need to look that up because I could go for a Chicago Dog this weekend!
8. DHs friends have a regular racquetball game that he's joining now that we moved and I wish so bad I could see his first attempt. Hahahaha
9. I am struggling coming up with 10 today!
10. Have a great Tuesday everyone!
2. FX that DD's medication works.
3. My dog is super fluffy right now.
4. My dog needs a haircut.
5. I need a haircut.
6. DD is pulling up to stand on everything! Nothing is safe!
7. Coffee. Iced Coffee.
8. My garden produced it first zucchini and a couple jalapenos.
9. Up and Vanished podcast is amazing!
10. First ultrasound in 2 weeks. I'm nervous and excited.
@kitandcat I think it has to do with the nitrates in hot dogs (and other cured meats). But nitrate free hot dogs do exist.

2. I hate public transportation and this hour and 15 min commute each way to work is beyond old.

4. The egg, ham and cheese on a whole wheat bagel I ate this morning was delicious.

1) day after tomorrow is my viability scan. Sooooo anxious.
2) I felt like total pregnancy-crap yesterday and was so thankful for it.
3) I'm gonna Be vague here to not trigger - dh told me to avoid x because there's is something gross and he will deal with it. He only told me so I don't stumble arose it accidentally. Even though he was vague and not specific I can't stop picturing along the gross possibilities in my head and feeling ill.
4) I need to ask my dad if I can start doing a small amount of work again this fall, and slowly ease back into a 3/4 time schedule over the next year. (I worked for a family business). I'm dreading it - not even because my I don't want to work...l I mean I don't but I am at peace with it. I just don't want to ask.
5) pretty much no food tastes good to me right now, but my daily breakfast, my fav meal, stillness tastes great and I'm so glad. I don't like lunch anyhow so it's no big loss.
6) spin off From 5: it's my bday Sunday and my mom is having a bday dinner for me. I hope what I asked for will taste palatable, and she's ordering a cake. Which normally, yay cake! Except sweets are kinda an aversion right now.... I haven't had my nightly ice cream in weeks. I tried to pick a light fresh flavor so hopefully I will like it ok.
7) I'm worried that I'll get bad news thrudday and it will ruin my bday and forever be associated with my bday.
8) we filled in the pool stm our new house and are reusing the pavers from it to Ben a patio. I swear it's been over a month for them to finish the patio portion. Omg. I just want to use our new patio before summer it over!!!
9) even though we can't afford it (see item 4), I can't wait to get a new minivan!!
10) our dogs are older and are being such an issue with accidents. Sooooo over it.
11/18/16 missed m/c 9w1
08/03/17 no hb 8w
2) Going to the cottage this weekend
3) Potty training (it's always on my mind)
4) How I hate being due at the end of the month because so many people are 7-9 weeks and I'm only 5
5) I'm tired
6) I'm still wearing the bandana my toddler put on my several hours ago
7) The nausea is starting and it weirdly makes me smile
8) I hope my OB calls this morning with my HCG levels so I don't have to call and talk to her frustrating nurse
9) I should get off my phone and play farm with my kid
10) Worried about my toddler peeing in the car on the way to the grocery store
2. I wish my daughter could take care of herself in the mornings so I could sleep in.
3. I'm tired of watching Paw Patrol.
4. One of my dogs had a tick on her yesterday so I had to give all 4 of our dogs a flea and tick bath last night .
5. I have zero energy for anything.
6. I wish Nick Jr. would get with the times like Disney Jr and put all of the commercials at the end of the episodes.
7. I cut my hair two weeks ago and regret it.
8. When my 2 year old says stop, it sounds like the F word and it's hilarious.
9. I still wonder how I'm ever going to love another child as much as I love my daughter.
10. Yesterday I had an "oh crap" I'm really pregnant moment and all of the anxiety from my first pregnancy came back.
1. I am exhausted and want to go home and take a nap.
2. I can't go home, I didn't drive myself into work this morning...
3. I am test driving a GMC Terrain after work so I'm excited about that.
4. Wish I could have an iced coffee from Caribou right about now.
5. GoT really got me hyped up for the rest of the season.
6. Couldn't sleep last night. Really weird, vivid dreams again.
7. Excited for my first dr. apt Friday - maybe also why I can't sleep.
8. I'm tired of people giving me advice and/or their opinions when I don't ask for it.
9. I really wish I could eat a full meal without wanting to puke.
10. I need to buy lotion. My skin is so dry and itchy!
Added bonus: I really love my little smoosh already, even if he/she is only 9 weeks.
2. I'm less excited about a red eye flight with a toddler but maybe he will sleep?
3. Laundry. It's always around. That's how I'm spending my morning.
4. PJ Masks is not one of my favorite shows... neither is the Lion Guard.
5. I have so many pictures to upload... from our trip and before.
6. Nausea is both comforting and the pits. I'm not sure if I'm thankful that I haven't thrown up yet or if I wish I had.
7. Last night DS walked around outside calling for one of the cats "Peee Terrr, Pee Terrr" and his little voice was ridiculously cute. I'm glad I got a video.
8. I want a subway sub for lunch really bad.
9. I'm bummed that the temperature has dropped to double digits at home but will climb right back up in time for me to get there.
10. I love my family but I miss my furry kiddos and I'm ready for my own routine.
((Ps, this was fun))
@becausescience sorry to hear that yesterday was emotionally tough, sending positive thoughts your way for a better day today and rest of the week!
@isntthatspeshul i had the same annoyance with a lady with heavy perfume on this morning - nausea + heightened sense of smell combined, ugh. thankfully it was only for an elevator ride instead of a longer train ride, you must have been miserable.
@GG620 yay for the ultrasound tomorrow, so exciting!
@pghctwife happy early birthday!!!
@justkeeptrying i'm only a week ahead of you, so i know the feeling of "behind" others on the board. but hopefully once we're all farther along the difference won't feel so big.
@TennisLove30 right there with you on the sleeping in daydreams - as much as I love DS, I'd give anything for one day of "sleeping in" until 8 or 9, even 10! though at this point my body is so programmed to wake up early i don't know if i could sleep in even if I wanted to
1. I really need a haircut. Considering doing a Keratin treatment so I don't have to straighten it in the mornings (my hair is slightly wavy if I blow dry it), but I've never done one before.
2. As much as I love DS, I miss being able to go out to happy hour or go to a baseball game without worrying about arranging for a sitter for DS.
3. I have to tell people at work this week that I'm leaving and going to a new job. Ugh it's just so awkward. I want to tell people I've worked closely with individually so I can explain and make sure there are no hard feelings, but it's just uncomfortable all around.
4. Need to buy DS more clothes again, he's growing like a weed and his T-shirts are turning into crop tops.
5. Speaking of weeds, I need to do some gardening this weekend and get the weeds out of our garden, which flourished while we were out of town.
6. My birthday is coming up in a few weeks, we're debating whether or not to do a birthday gathering with close friends and tell them about the pregnancy then. I'd be about 8 weeks then, so still early, but a few days after my dating ultrasound. Hmm, we'll see...
7. Cupcakes! Thinking about my birthday suddenly makes me really want a cupcake, a really good one from our local bakery.
8. Good sign that I'm craving food, this morning's nausea seems to have calmed down for now.
9. Coffee - I usually have a small cup in the morning, and then a cup of decaf in the afternoon, but I worry that's too much so I'm trying to figure out my new coffee routine.
10. I'm so looking forward to the next few weeks, since I'm winding down at my job it'll be a nice and easy schedule, and then I'll have a week off before I start my new job.
1- Dreading school open house tonight. I got to school at 6:45 today and open house ends at 8pm. So it's going to be a long day over here for me.
2- Starting to think about day care options is overwhelming and I feel annoyed that it isn't government subsidized.
3- My students are all suuuuuuuuper quiet so I feel like a librarian right now.
4- Lately despite my exhaustion I've been experiencing a lot of anxiety that keeps me up at night.
5- I'm so proud of my second beta numbers. I hope it will help me stay calm until I get my first ultrasound next Wednesday.
6- I'm really excited to get baby girl's dresser/changing table this week! We already have the crib set up and a bookshelf/toy storage unit. We work fast.
7- H has been applying to so many jobs that he is more than qualified for and sometimes I worry that he's not getting interviews because his name is so ethnic.
8- I just ordered a Hydro Flask off Amazon and I'm super excited for it.
9- The AC in my classroom is SO SQUEAKY and it's driving me slowly insane.
10- I'm going to a meeting about scheduling Mat leave next week and I'm looking forward to getting that info.
EDIT UGH the bump ate my ENTIRE post.
2. I'm so hungry and nothing sounds good.
3. My follow ultrasound to get an official due date is tomorrow! I'm excited and nervous.
4. I'd love to stay in bed all day today. The fatigue is kicking my butt!
5. My kitchen is a mess from DSs birthday party.. I really need to clean that!
6. I was soo excited to be pregnant again (I still am!!) But like @TennisLove30 freaking out on if I'll really love another baby as much as DS.
7. I hope DS falls asleep soon so I can take a shower.
8. I am already convinced this baby is another boy. I'll be shocked if it's a girl and I'm really excited about the possibility of two boys.
9. My birthday is next week and I really hope DH has something special planned.
10. I hope the sun peeks out today so we can get some outside time!
1. I'm a vegetarian and was looking forward to meat, since I eat meat during pregnancy. Meat smells gross right now.
2. Will I ever discipline myself enough to potty train my son? I don't want to diaper 2 at the same time and I'm impressed with those that do it.
3. It's time to strip my son's cloth diapers. Have only done it once a year ago and forgot how and the internet has HORRIBLE and convoluted advice for all things cloth diapers.
4.Nursing at night provides great pain relief from my sore chest and good hormonal balance for me. Glad to have it.
5. Actively looking for home birthers. I only know a couple of people and wishing I had a large sounding board.
6. Dropping off my son with my parents so I can go to work as my husband's secretary. Feels kind of sexy and I'm excited about it.
7. Going to drive a few miles to pick up my favorite sushi roll. Would like to not vomit.
8. My 22mo old son thinks about what I ask of him, says no then turns and walks away. I'm going to engage him in cleaning the house with me somehow.
9. Doing water aerobics is amazing, except I want to vomit while I'm bouncing around in the water.
10. Really want to add on to our house, as in physically do a lot of the construction. I feel like I want to do many things (home vbac, etc) and don't know enough people who have done them and this lowers my confidence.
@scoogy19 I'm dreading going down to one nap a day. DD resists the afternoon nap hard, but she needs it.
@antoto We'll have to start a nursery thread soon to see your progress. All I've done for new baby is think about going to Ikea.
@gazelle319 Your coffee consumption sounds fine. As long as you keep it under 200mg of caffeine (~12oz coffee) you should be good.

2. Related: I really want to buy capri-length maternity athletic pants, but I refuse to buy any clothes this week because I'm moving to PA next week where there's no sales tax on clothes.
3. I'm so excited we're moving next week!!!!
4. I'm so not looking forward to this epic weekend of pod-loading.
5. I'm not telling any of my friends here that I'm pregnant (because I don't feel comfortable telling anyone outside of close family this early in the game), but it feels super weird to be leaving them all with a huge secret.
6. I'm finishing an academic article today and will probably submit it by the end of the week!
7. We have submitted all the necessary documents for our home loan and should be able to schedule a closing date very soon!
8. The weather is beautiful and I'm leaving work early today so I can go to the pool with DH and DS.
9. Kind of looking forward to packing up all our kitchen stuff tomorrow, because that means we can eat pizza and ordered food for the rest of the week.
10. I will really miss DS's daycare when we leave. It's been such a good place for him this year.
2. I am STARVING every 2 hours like clockwork. I go from being fine to feeling like I've never eaten before in my entire life.
3. I am so bored at work. I really don't have much to do and it's making me batty.
4. I wonder where my nausea is. I got super nauseous on Sunday and puked and have been fine since.
5. Super anxiously awaiting the results of my the blood work that insisted upon today. My progesterone dropped to much for my liking (although still in range) and I asked for repeat blood work to ease my nerves.
6. I feel so lucky to be pregnant at all after trying for so long and being told I had a TINY change of being pregnant with my own eggs.
7. I want to vomit at the prices of daycare in NYC. It's beyond ridiculous.
8. I wish someone could explain to me how the paid family leave that starts in NY in January will work. HR has no clue, which makes it very difficult for me to plan.
9. Did I mention that I was freezing? It deserves 2 spots on this list.
10. Is it dinner time yet? Going to my favorite pizza restaurant with my aunt and cousin.
Okay Take 2...
1. Husband comes home today from a boys camping trip. Yay!
2. My 12 month old just climbed onto his little bike on his own. Swoon!
3. I cannot stop eating goldfish crackers.
4. Why won't my dogs stop shedding?
5. I hated all the unsolicited touching last time I was pregnant. Even from my own mother. I would tell her I didn't like it and her response was "I'm the grandma. I get to." Ugh. All those feelings are still there. I didn't LOVE being pregnant and I'm hoping I can embrace it more this time around minus the invading my personal space...ie MY OWN BODY.
6.I just worked my tail off the past couple months to lose 20+ lbs. I'm getting anxiety about gaining the weight back. It put me in a very negative headspace.
7. We're building a house this fall/winter due to be done at the beginning of March. I just realized I have to get our current house ready to sell and move while being super pregnant. Gah.
8. I'm going to need all the 2 under 2 advice I can get from you ladies!
9. I haven't called my Dr office to schedule my first appt. Idk why I'm being so nonchalant about it. Maybe because I know I have to find a new OB and I'm trying to avoid it.
10. Feelin' like I need some froyo today. yum.
1. I have not been able to get out of bed for 5 days because of severe nausea.
2. I have not watered my garden in 5 days because I've been in bed the whole time.
3. I am so behind on laundry ( see #1 ) and I go back to work tomorrow with nothing to wear.
4. I have no idea how I am going to work tomorrow when I haven't gotten out of bed in 5 days.
5. The # of days it's been since I last stepped outside
6. The sea sickness bands are hurting my wrists like crazy - but they are helping so I'm going to push through it.
7. my body is sore from not getting out of bed for 5 days. I keep telling myself to just GET UP - but I can't.
8. DH is hungry - I haven't done groceries in (you guessed it) and there is no food in the house. Luckily he asked me to email him a list and he will pick things up on the way home today.
9. My cat loves to snuggle in bed which is sweet. my dog tolerates it but leaves pretty quickly.
10. I need to brush my hair (it is so tangled from being permanently mashed up against a pillow)
@bb3vj3n That's awesome that he's going to pick up groceries. The Giant Eagle near me is starting to do curbside pickup and it's going to make things a lot easier for me.
@wisewitch222 @scoogy19 I'll join in on the yay for no taxes on essentials in PA.
@antoto Wow, you really do work fast! That's awesome that you have the nursery almost all ready to go!
@justkeeptrying I know how you feel being only 5 weeks with everyone else so far along. We'll get there too!
1. Apparently my OB office is closing the end of august, and I'll have to go into the city for all my new appointments...
2. All I can think about eating today is Wendy's nuggets. Oh - and BBQ sauce.
3. Fiance is complaining that I'm getting expensive to feed - yes I'm being very picky to not set off my nausea, but half the time I've been losing my appetite so I don't know how I'm being expensive lol
4. I can't wait to see my little bean again at the ultrasound in two weeks. Just waiting on the Nurse to confirm the appointment.
5. Getting tired of the pregnancy insomnia, and my cat thinking the new wake-up time is 6 am instead of 7 am.
6. I want so badly to start the nursery. I've got a theme, and furniture on a wish list - Just waiting on the Fiance to give me the green light to buy things.
7. I miss really hot baths.
8. Sometimes I wish my mom would take a step back. She's trying to plan the nursery theme herself (without consulting what I've already decided). She's also trying to incorporate things she likes in my wedding as well.
9. I'm waiting (again) on my future Mother-in-law to send me the rest of the addresses so I can send my save the dates for my wedding in May.
10. Is it Friday yet?

2. On Tuesday's during the summer we have a farmers market at our hospital, which is my favorite!
3. DS pretty much wakes up every morning by 6am, no matter what time we put him to bed. Except for some work days when I'm already waking up early. This kid needs to learn to sleep later!
4. My family is coming to visit from the east coast next week, and I can't wait to see them!
5. It's my sisters birhday just after they visit, and I need to figure out what kind of cake I'm going to bake her.
6. I usually try to walk around during my lunch hour for exercise, but I'm so enjoying just sitting on a bench in the shade, and I don't want to move.
7. My next appt for my dating u/s is next Friday. I wanted to move it up to earlier in the week, but DH won't let me
8. It feels like forever since my first u/s (two weeks ago), and I just want to know that everything's ok. It was too early to date me at that point, and I just need to know!!
9. I really just want to eat a giant plate of French fries.
10. Why is it so hard to concentrate these days??
ETA an 11th thing. I just got a raspberry lemonade from the farmers market and it made up for the pizza because it was the best thing ever.
2. I ate bagels for 1-2 meals a day for the last 3 days, and I must say, I am a better person because of it.
3. I love creamer with my coffee, and I hate when people get all snobby like I clearly don't love coffee if I need creamer. Fool, I don't need creamer, but I enjoy it and I'm going to use it to make my day a little brighter, thank you!
4. DS is still sleeping and it reminds me of DD's epic 3-4 hour naps when I was pregnant with DS. Now DD makes it 30 minutes and she's ready to go again!
5. I've told a few close friends that I'm pregnant, and I'm happy I did. I thought I'd keep it an uber secret again, but it's been really nice having friends to talk about 1st tri woes with for the last couple weeks.
6. My family photos are rescheduled for the evening after my dating u/s. It could either be a really fun day to tell the kids we're going to have another family member, or not, but I'm trying to stay in a good headspace and just control the things I can and let go of the things I can't.
7. I have a half-day at work tomorrow, but I'm sending the kids to daycare for the full day. I want a pedicure and some brain time to myself so I can wrap my head around the school year and volleyball season coming up.
8. I just ate an ice cream sandwich instead of cottage cheese, and while I'm a little bummed, I'm mostly satisfied
9. My friend brought her 3-week-old to the park today and my kids melted around the baby and just loved her up. Makes my mama heart smile!
10. DH mowed the lawn today, which makes my afternoon a little less exhausting!
My secondborn baby,
I have to tell you the truth.
One day you’ll probably ask me
About why everything wasn’t
Bright, shiny and
New
For you.
And when you ask me,
I will tell you the truth;
The truth about
The hand-me-downs,
The caffeine and soft cheese
During pregnancy,
My lack of a birth plan,
And weekly bump photos;
The fact that I didn’t wait
With bated breath
For every single milestone.
The difficult truths
Like the fact that
You had to cry more
Wait more
Share more.
The fact that I,
Your mama,
Was often not the best version of myself.
But dear, sweet, secondborn,
Let me also tell you this.
The truth is,
Before you were born,
I doubted the infinity of love
And yet
The moment they placed you in my arms,
Cocooned in blankets,
With your button nose and scrunched up lips,
Eyes firmly shut and so new to this world,
It’s as if
I grew
A whole new heart
Just for you.
The truth is,
Darling girl,
It was you who taught me
To really believe
That despite the guilt, the worry,
The urgent need to be everything to everyone,
That in fact, I am enough, as I am.
Yes, I was already someone’s mother
When you came into my life
But you made me
A better one.
And so, the truth is,
Dear secondborn,
When one day you start to wonder why
Things were different when you came along
Know this, my love:
I never knew
How much my heart could hold,
Until I held you;
How you weren’t an addition,
But a piece that was missing;
And how now that a year has passed,
After everything we’ve been through,
The love and joy
You have brought
Makes me feel
Bright,
Shiny
And new
Every day.

@rasco12 Yeah I'm not into ppl touching me--not a big hugger. So the fact that people are going to be all up on my belly makes me SO uncomfortable. I will slap people's hands away if they don't ask and I may say no to ppl if they do ask. IDGAF if we're related, do NOT touch me!!
1 I have my first u/s tomorrow and I'm terrified but also excited.
2 If it goes well I get French pastries, so double score.
3 MH may be gearing up for a job change, which is a scary timing wise, but also potentially great.
4 I'm so glad it is summer because the only healthy thing thing I can eat is fruit and if I was going through MS in winter I'd probably get scurvy.
5 My sister is a wreck right now and I feel bad but I have so much high stakes shit going on that I'm having a hard time being there for her.
6 I'm still so grateful to be here after IF struggles.
7 As a FTM I'm afraid of everything.
8 MH is horrified by my food aversions.
9 He's dealing with it though. Being a good sport.
10 In 24 hours I'll know how tomorrow went.
2. I want Kraft Dinner...and it's way better here in Canada, if anyone has had both versions.
3. Popcicles are my best friends. I have to convince my oldest that he ate them all...
4. Is it Friday? I'm going to my hometown for over a week, and I haven't been since May.
5. Is it August 11th yet? Girl's weekend at my cottage!
6. My birthday is next week and my parents are taking me out for crab legs.
7. It's my second DS first birthday Saturday...and I still have WAY too much to do.
8. My cat just bit me.
9. My SO is at work tomorrow for 24hrs so I get to eat whatever junk food I please.
10. Folding laundry is dreadful.
ETA the correct spelling of the country I live in...
2) My 11 month old wants nothing more than to play with every cord in sight. We're moving everything we can out of reach, but there are SO many damn cords in this house!
3) I now understand why there are professional babyproofers.
4) I scrubbed my cooktop and grates today for the first time in I don't even know when.
5) I feel guilty for not being obsessed with this pregnancy like I was with my first.
6) My dog is itchy. She's on meds that are helping, but I hope she doesn't need them permanently. It's expensive.
7) I don't know how pregnant women survived without AC. Or people in general.
8) I'm ready for Friday.
9) I'm 90% sure I'm going to SAH after this baby and I can't wait to quit my job.
10) I wish The Bump app didn't suck so much
2. My 2yo DD was a major handful when I got home. A stubborn toddler is much harder to manage than a stubborn doc!! Lol.
3. I've been having bad hair days since day one of this pregnancy . I bought and took my pregnancy test right after a hair appt last Friday as my long time hair dresser asked if I was going through any hormonal changes. Such oily hair!
4. I've had tons of energy this week (only on week 4) and I'm dreading the crash that I know will be coming.
5. I'm going to an outdoor concert with DH and some friends on Friday night and I know we will see tons of people we know. Dreading having to hide all night that I'm not drinking.
6. I am a Dietitian but doesn't mean I'm always a healthy eater! I got into this cause I love food!
7. So gassy already
8. I love my job but wish we had it in our budget for me to work less.
9. I miss beer already.
10. I am looking forward to maternity leave naps!
Here are my ten:
1) OB called yesterday and said I have a uti. I had a uti in the first trimester with both of previous pregnancies which I find strange.
2) I have a US on August 10th and I'm kind of pissed that it's not sooner lol.
3) My 2 yo son has the manliest farts I have ever heard from a child.
4) They smell just as bad.
5) I think my cat knows I'm pregnant. Usually she likes to lay alone. Now she won't leave me alone. She constantly will walk across me and put her butthole in my face.
6) My kids watch the same 4 movies over and over again. It's driving me insane.
7) My H works 12 hour night shifts, I like it because the bed is mine but hate it because I also want him home.
8) I. Hate. Doing. Laundry.
9) I want to buy maternity clothes but I'm afraid that I'm going to get ginormous again and nothing that I buy now will fit later.
10) My ass has already doubled in size
