@F47 heart melted. That is too adorable!

DH just showed up at my desk with oranges because I texted him having a meltdown because I forgot mine this morning

Eff flowers, he knows the way to my heart!

@Funnygirl34I have some fancy AG and Kensie ones from my last pregnancy, but honestly the Gap ones are so much more comfy. Go Gap!

ecwk · January 2018

@Funnygirl34 my fave are Jessica Simpson ones, I also have a pair from target and they’re not my fave.

Yikes @calimom2524 but good luck st your appointment later!!

@mrsbubbles-2 that’s adorable! What do you do that he can show up at your desk? Love it!!

mrsbubbles-2 · January 2018

@calimom2524 have a great appointment! Will be stalking for an update!

@livinthesunnylife I forgot about Gap! Yes to Gap! And their materninty tanks are so stretchy and soft.

@ecwk - we work in the same building! I'm in security and he's a computer admin so it's nice on snow days or when DS has a dr appt we can carpool!

mrsbubbles-2 · January 2018

Thread hogging today - OMG you guys March had their first birth!!!

livinthesunnylife · January 2018

@mrsbubbles-2 That's so adorable! My whole last pregnancy I only asked DH to get me something once (Root beer float stuff) and he wouldn't. So I went out an bought myself a case of root beer and whole tub of icecream and really enjoyed eating it all myself and not letting him have any.

mrsbubbles-2 · January 2018

@livinthesunnylife HAHAHA! Aaaand now I I need a root beer float

livinthesunnylife · January 2018

@mrsbubbles-2 yeah me too, darn it for making me remember that. We have ice cream in the office.....but no root beer..... We have diet coke or Dr Pepper..... It could satisfy the urge? lol

calimom2524 · January 2018

Holy crap! March is only 5 months away from August. I feel like ish just got real. Also, the orange delivery is the cutest thing ever but thanks to @livinthesunnylife I now require a root beer float.

mrsbubbles-2 · January 2018

Oooh, Dr Pepper and ice cream sounds fantastic! Where is that cravings thread lol! I haven't been able to open it because stupid nausea but now I want all the things!

mrsbubbles-2 · January 2018

@calimom2524 - 5 months... that was my first thought too! Then my second was holy crap we have so much to do and only 5 months to do it!!! Ok Bubbles, calm down!

livinthesunnylife · January 2018

I'm lost, why are we in March already? It's not even February until tomorrow. Quit fast forwarding on me.

elsieisamoocow · January 2018

Ooh thanks for the suggestions on the maternity jeans! I have a couple pairs of Paige but they slip down whenever I bend down or walk and it's annoying me like crazy.

I took advantage of some online sales over the past couple of days and ordered some new maternity shirts from Pink Blush, Gap/Old Navy, and some shirts and shorts from Motherhood because all of my favorite maternity stuff is winter and no way will I survive a SoCal summer (last summer was 110+ for majority of the summer) without tanks and shorts!

juliebird6 · January 2018

Too funny about the root beer float - I actually had one last night! It was amazing. I only buy those teeny tiny little 8 oz cans of pop though (trying to be "good") , which was most definitely not enough. I probably could have guzzled a float made with a 2 liter.

Edited because I posted too soon.

Omg. Your "pop" just made me smile. I know you don't live there anymore but I miss the Chicago area so much!

jsnakehole · January 2018

One of my kids had a chicken nugget Lunchable today, so DH tried to get me McDonald's nuggets but my lunch is too early. He tried to beg them and said his pregnant wife will kill him, but it didn't work. So I had an egg mcmuffin and an apple pie.

alinafed · January 2018

I'm so confused by the last few comments about August being in 5 months... August is 6 months away!! Now I am second-guessing myself but 1) counting on my fingers from Feb 1 to August 1 is 6 months, and 2) I am due August 1st and as of tomorrow that will officially be 6 months away/ so in my mind I will be 3 months pregnant (I am already 14 weeks so that seems late to hit the 3 month mark but here we are).

alinafed · January 2018

Addition to my last comment: I see now that it was because someone said MARCH is 5 months away from August. Makes more sense... I do often wish it was going faster!

mrslittlemac · January 2018

I think the confusion is because months were being counted from March to August, since the March BMB just had their first birth and it's quite common to see births a month or more before their EDD. That's how I read it, anyway!

I need a root beer float now too!

alinafed · January 2018

I really want a root beer float so badly.

I also wanted to say I am sorry for all the mamas dealing with the flu in their house - hope you all feel better soon along with your kiddos.

livinthesunnylife · January 2018

I'm glad I could make everyone else crave a root beer float!

And on the timing thing, it doesn't matter. I was due on the 14th of the month last time and I was the 3rd to last kid born in our BMB. So.....this time being due on the 24th I know I'll just be sitting here watchin all the cute little squishies appear, impatiently waiting. I swear some people snuck into a later BMB just cause they liked having the older kid....

calimom2524 · January 2018

These losses are hitting me hard. I'm both thankful and terrified I have an appt this afternoon.

Same. Mine is in 2.5 hours and now can't come soon enough.

mrsbubbles-2 · January 2018

Thinking of all of you that have appointments coming up, please update us!
Hugs to everyone, these losses are breaking my heart.

jsnakehole · January 2018

Mine isn't until February 12th and it's freaking me out. I really don't want to wait that long but that's the next time they can see me. I'll be 11 weeks and change by then.

hezzer78 · January 2018

I agree - we had a little lull in the losses I feel, then lately it's been a few right together. Super scary and heartbreaking.

Ooo I have root beer at home! But no ice cream

I may need to rectify that tonight. H is making some healthy salmon thing for dinner, so that will definitely need to be balanced out with some sugary goodness.

windywoman · January 2018

My appointment is next Thursday and I feel like that is so far away. Good vibes and hugs to everyone today!

livinthesunnylife · January 2018

ugh, It's like a shot to the gut every time. My appt is Feb 12th too @jsnakehole

lolog531 · January 2018

Good luck all at your appointments! Mine next week can’t come soon enough!

@livinthesunnylife I’m due the 31st, so I’ll be sitting here with you! I’m a repeat c/s, so probably will be about a week before EDD though!

Funnygirl34 · January 2018

Ugh, it's so sad to see the recent losses. I hate it so much. I have my first trimester screening Friday and am officially freaking out.

Same here (appointment next Thursday), And I really hope the time goes quickly. The losses are hitting me hard too.

ecwk · January 2018

The losses are simply awful. Especially considering how close to second tri most here are. It's very scary and it's very heartbreaking. Looking forward to positive updates from those of you with upcoming appointments. My NT scan is on Tuesday and I am getting more and more nervous. I ask DS what's in my belly and he says "uh oh" - which I know means nothing but of course made me paranoid. However when I ask him am I having a boy or girl he says "two" but there is only one there!! lol

lakesideknitter · January 2018

@ecwk that's really cute! When we ask DS (2yo) if we should have a baby, he says, "No, puppy!"

msmonalisavito · February 2018

Whoa, this is my first time here on my laptop and it's like a whole new world. Loving the siggies!

DD2 was up from 2:30am-4am and then only napped for 1.5 hours. I.Am.Exhausted. I stayed home with her today but DH is going to have to start using some of his days if either of them get sick again. I need my days AND my students don't learn when I'm not there.

And yes to the heartbreak of the losses. I can't even imagine what they are going through.

lolog531 · February 2018

I don’t know who’s whinier - a sick toddler or a sick DH.
Both are fever free and slept a lot of the day, but still super cranky and whiny when awake! Just put DS to bed and I told DH to go to bed. I have to go to the office tomorrow, so I need him rested to be with DS.
I now am going to watch something lighthearted on Netflix and I so wish I could pour a glass of wine right now!

calimom2524 · February 2018

Had my appointment today and everything looks/sounds good. Not thrilled with the 6 pounds I gained but I refuse to obsess about that this time around.

derbysquirrel · February 2018

@lakesideknitter
I asked my husband for a third dog, but he said "no." I asked for a kid, and that he agreed to. I probably wouldn't have gotten pregnant if he'd agreed to the dog!

lakesideknitter · February 2018

@derbysquirrel Yeah, pretty much same here! He says we can't get a dog until DS is old enough to take care of it. Boooooooooooooooo. We all know I'm gonna be taking care of it anyways, so why wait?

F47 · February 2018

The losses are incredibly sad. I can’t imagine. I had my appointment this morning and it took about 4 minutes for my OB to find the heartbeat, so those mamas were running through my head. My doctor told me not to freak out, but after all that time I certainly was. Baby was just positioned higher in my abdomen than he expected at this point in pregnancy. Phew...
