I seem to have lost my motivation to get ready for work in the mornings now. Everything hurts. I like my job, I just wish I could twitch my nose and be dressed/ready and at work.
My doctor recommended that intake Prilosec for my acid and I started it and it has worked perfectly for me. Better than Zantac (for me). So I guess that’s one less thing to worry about.

Supposed to be getting our sewer pipe replaced today and tomorrow. They apparently put us on the schedule for tomorrow and Thursday instead. I had to fight to be able to WFH today in addition to my normal WFH day on Wednesdays. Plus, today was supposed to be the actual replacement day (where I preferred to be home all day to make sure there were no issues), and Wednesday was supposed to be the inspection, which I did not need to be around all day for. That worked out great considering I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. Now, they've thrown everything off. I may have cried on the phone when she told me we weren't on the schedule for today. Damn hormones. Waiting on a call back from them to see what we can do.

I'll also add, I think I'm extra frustrated since this comes on the heels of having to arrange to be at home several times for our AC replacement and following inspections, etc. DH has been super busy at work and his schedule is a lot less flexible than mine, so it's all fallen on me to be home for all this stuff. I just need a break!

I have morning heartburn today, which is incredibly unfair. I feel like the full panel maternity pants press on my esophagus and make it worse. I had to order some up a size because of this. I love them in second tri but start feeling like they are killing me in 3rd!

DD had a blast at the park this AM but got so so dirty so had to do a bath when we got home. I feel like I have reached my quota of activity today. 😂

(We do every other night usually). But it is so nice now that she can shower herself! Thank goodness because I am so tired. I have a pork roast to put into the oven when I get home. Last night, I made the mashed potato casserole so I just need to put it in the oven too. I really plan on doing the least tonight.

I'm half an hour early to DDs orthodontist appt. I have a bad habit of being super early to everything.

Growth scan went well. Little lady is right on track according to their measurements and is very low, head down, and facing my back.

I've cut way down on the size of my dinners since Friday and I think it's helping the reflux some. I'm trying to not have more than 8oz of water when I eat too. This doesn't apply in the mornings though. I've gotta have that 10oz coffee size on the keurig. 😴

I'm sitting in a restaurant alone waiting for a couple of friends that are running late. I always have an irrational fear of being stood up in these situations.
Also, wtf do you eat at a tex-mex place when you have reflux??

Also, wtf do you eat at a tex-mex place when you have reflux?? Tortilla soup? Maybe chicken enchiladas with a sour cream sauce. Plain/cbicken beef tacos with rice and beans. Honestly I love Mexican food so I would order what I wanted and only eat half and take the rest home.

Reflux and running out of room are my main reasons why we're not planning to eat out much anymore for the rest of the pregnancy. MH is a big eater and I don't want to watch him enjoy eating his whole meal when I have to barely eat. Even though I can take leftovers home, it's like the appeal is gone.

On my birthday I'll be 38+2. My birthday dinner is for sure getting pushed until after this baby is born. Even if that's just steaks and sides at my parents' house or take out from a place I like. I can't imagine how I'm going to fit anything in my stomach at that point. 😭

Also, wtf do you eat at a tex-mex place when you have reflux?? I’m not a huge Mexican fan (of course the rest of my family is). I usually get a shrimp and mushroom quesadilla, not too bad for reflux. Tomorrow is our once a month date night while my mom comes to see the kids. I convinced DH that I need sushi Of course, it will probably be sashimi salad, since I’m limited on carbs, but I’m still excited. At this point, carbs are more dangerous for the baby than raw/rare fish.

Yeah that's my motto. My anxiety won't let me be late to things. We had an insurance appointment today and I was supposed to be there between 12 and 12:30. I got there at 12:05 and felt like I was late and was anxious.

DD started to get excited about my birthday coming soon, because cake! I told her that we would have a cake for baby sister’s birthday instead of mine, hopefully DH took the hint and plans a post baby birth celebration when I can actually eat everything again. I am perfectly fine with delivery food, lol.

tarheelmom I have had sushi several times while pregnant this time around. My only regret is that I avoided it with my first two pregnancies. I love sushi and it is our favorite place to go out to eat, the kids love it too.

I love sushi and it is our favorite place to go out to eat, the kids love it too. This reminds me I need to make a visit to my fav sushi place. There are only 2 places nearish me I trust with my raw fish right now, but I totally eat it. It's always weird, doctors in Japan don't tell pregnant women to avoid raw fish, just high mercury fish like tuna, so I eat it all as long as it's from a reputable place. Raw sweet shrimp and scallops are my favorite. My birthday is just over a week after this baby is due. And then DD's birthday is a week after mine. All I will probably want is food. Especially if I'm as hungry as I remember being with DD during those first weeks of breastfeeding lol. And also a huge piece of cake with extra icing, because fuck you GD.

My birthday is the 4th and I really don't want to share my birthday or be in the hospital for it. If it happens I'll get over it of course.
