Random Questions
Rants/Raves Anyone else feel like you already live in your bathroom? I'll go pee, leave the bathroom, get back to my (bed, desk, wherever) and have to go again. Sometimes I just sit in there longer because I'm tired of walking back and forth and I'm sure I'll have to go again in 30 seconds anyway.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to relax? I love to read, but right now I'm reading a lot of the pregnancy/baby/breastfeeding books and I have to admit those are sort of boring. I'm a hands on sort of person so reading about things is not a great way for me to learn. But give me a good fiction book and I'll sit for hours and read cover to cover.

GTKY: What is your favorite way to relax? I feel like I am SO BAD AT THIS. I read at night to unwind, watch TV, and probably what helps me unwind the most is getting up at 5am before everyone else to have coffee, write if I want, read the news, read a book, etc.

New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms I had some bad leg pains in one leg, I stretched like crazy and by the next day it wasn’t better, but of course I started worrying about DVT. (I know extreme but I’m so much more hyper aware of new symptoms because I’ve never been pregnant so I’m worried I will notice something and brush it off and that will become a problem.
Anyway- @noideawhatshesdoing I 100% understand the pee issue, I literally pee/ empty my bladder and run back in 5 mins later.
Appointments/US this week I had a follow up to my anatomy scan today- they wanted better pictures of babies heart. All went well! I also had just a regular check up, again all was well.

GTKY: What is your favorite way to relax? Def rewarding a book! I love to read and that def calms me.
New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms tailbone pain still present in the transition from sitting to standing and standing to sitting. I think feeling my tailbone shift into place is the worst part.
Appointments/US this week next week is a regular check up at 23 weeks
Random Questions Should I start gmail accounts for my kids using their names? Some people do it...but we don't have a super common last name so it's not like we have to compete with other people for the domains.
Rants/Raves I'm in a very cool city for work right now and had dinner by myself earlier that was AH-mazing! I will be going back to the same restaurant tomorrow because I want more. But...there also seems to be a very loud outdoor concert happening outside my hotel tonight so that's going to make sleeping hard. And I miss my babies at home. My daughter said she misses me. Cue crying.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to relax? in addition to zoning out on t.v. shows about life-changing transformations, I also enjoy crocheting and knitting and embroidery. I was going to do some crocheting tonight before bed but I spent too much time on work stuff instead so after this I'm just going to go to bed.
