Weekly Randoms 3.15 to 3.21

Whatcha got this week?

Re: Weekly Randoms 3.15 to 3.21

  • I started this so I can complain. DH won a work trip to FL. Normally it'd be in May/June but because of Covid they are pushing it back to Sept 15. I'll be 35 weeks pregnant so I don't think I'll be able to go. 😭😭😭 I was really looking forward to a luxury getaway on someone else's dime and im so sad! He probably won't be in the running for this vacation next year (or ever, weird circumstances this year). Still thinking of going to the Keys anyway, but damn, free would have been nice.

  • @vampirina That sucks. How far are you from FL? Is it close enough to sneak down there for a few days? I've only traveled a couple hundred miles away by car late in pregnancy (37 weeks) before and my midwife was not excited about it but was fine with it since I would be near major hospitals during the entire trip. 

    I made pizza from scratch for the first time ever yesterday to celebrate Pi Day, and it was so good! Really fun and easy to make too. I think that might become part of our semi-regular meal rotation.
  • I'm 1,771 miles away, so not close enough to make it work.  
  • Mint is not usually my thing, but I NEED a shamrock shake today. I need it. What are the odds that any of my local McDonald's locations will have a working ice cream machine? 😂😂
  • @chindimples04 I think the first Wednesday that people will be entering 2nd Tri is April 7th, maybe March 31st. I won't be able to join HDBD for awhile though... The curse of being tall and thick, I probably won't start showing until closer to 20 weeks. I actually wore non-maternity clothes when I went in for my emergency c-section at 36 weeks with my last pregnancy. But I LOVE to see the bumps!
  • @chindimples04 and @aztecash I’m so ready for a HDBD! Mine is definitely just bloat: I tried on a fitted maternity shirt today and it just looked like a little pooch lol
  • Joining the bloat club over here! It’s intense, by the end of the day I feel like I look huge, 4th baby problems I guess?
  • @mac-n-cheese so I can start today? 🤣🤣🤣

  • @heatherdubrow I don't think it's limited to 4th pregnancies. I'm on #1, and holy moly the difference between first thing in the morning and the evening is impressive. Probably just gassy people problems. 😂
  • @noprobalo that actually makes me feel way better!
  • Potential *TW/TMI*

    I had started spotting yesterday mid morning. It was enough that it went through my underwear and on to my pants, mostly because of how much discharge it was mixed with. I had spotting at almost this exact same time with DD from an SCH, but I still panicked. Called my midwife team and they offered to run 48 hour HCG labs since I was already going in for my initial OB screenings. HCG came back at 178,000 which is so reassuring. Obviously won’t see it double anymore but hopefully see a little increase by Saturday. 🤞🏼

  • @chindimples04 I’m thinking of you and hope everything goes in the right direction
  • @chindimples04, I'm so sorry you are dealing with this. I'm thinking of you and hoping for good numbers in 48hours ❤
  • Seriously considering calling in sick today. I *should* save as much of my sick leave as I can for doctor visits and maternity leave, but I have 0 meetings today (a rarity!) and I'm not feeling so great so a couch day would be honestly fantastic.... ugh decisions decisions.
