snip I'm sitting on our porch eating breakfast before I have to drive Lucas to school. I threw up twice last night and am feeling queasy this morning so I'm not looking forward to 45 minutes in the car. If I can pull it together I'm going to go to the gym and then o have my first dr app this afternoon. I'm a bit nervous. Obviously this was a huge surprise and the last month has basically been a laundry list of what not to do in preganancy. (Alcohol, sushi, hot tubs... just to name a few). I'm trying not to let my mind go there but if you could send some good vibes I'd appreciate it. Before I found out I was pregnant with E, I had been drinking a LOT in the weekends leading up to that time, not realizing. Super bowl party, drinking wine with friends, etc. And she ended up fine. It's early, so I'm sure everything is good, but I'll send you positive vibes!

Morning. Woke up feeling stressed and anxious.I'm attributing it to post partum hormones but shouldn't that kind of be over by now? I feel like i don't know what is normal. Nothing in particular but simple things seem to trigger it...like picking a date for A's baptism. Anyway, took L to preschool and now I'm nursing A for the 2nd time in an hour. Hoping she drops off soon. Sent from my LG-K371 using Tapatalk Re: Picking a date - I don't have anxiety or anything like that, but I feel like since I got pregnant with B (so for 1.5 years now), I am CRIPPLED by every decision. Do I stay at this DC or change? Do I book the flights to Florida for our trip or wait? Do I buy these flip flops or those? I mean I literally get paralyzed by these decisions. Anyway, I've talked to others and it seems pretty normal. I hope it fades for you quickly!

Morning! guster I got dh a hammock last Christmas from amazon. I'll see if I can dig up which brand it was, but it was relatively inexpensive and works great! I'm sitting on our porch eating breakfast before I have to drive Lucas to school. I threw up twice last night and am feeling queasy this morning so I'm not looking forward to 45 minutes in the car. If I can pull it together I'm going to go to the gym and then o have my first dr app this afternoon. I'm a bit nervous. Obviously this was a huge surprise and the last month has basically been a laundry list of what not to do in preganancy. (Alcohol, sushi, hot tubs... just to name a few). I'm trying not to let my mind go there but if you could send some good vibes I'd appreciate it. I'm sure everything will be fine! And I'm 99% sure that all that stuff in the beginning doesn't matter. That's what I've been told anyway! I have a picture of myself the night before I tested positive with B holding a glass of wine. I know it was not my first glass. I'm also pretty sure I knew deep down that I was pregnant but just hadn't tested yet. Also, now most doctor's are saying sushi is fine, so long as it's from a good place (I mean, who's eating gas station sushi anyway). All that to say, I wouldn't worry about what you did before you knew, all you can do is make good decisions now!

All the good vibes to you xolastunicornxo. I think we all worry about what we did in the days before we knew we were KU. But those little embies are pretty hardy and well-protected (as explained to me by my OB to calm my fears).

I think S is holding his pee. Yesterday, he peed when he woke up (at 6:15), peed around noon right before lunch, woke up from his nap (around 3:00) and was screaming like he was in pain and looked to be doubled over like he had to pee. I finally got him in the bathroom and he went then. Then he didn't go again until right before bed (around 8 PM). He never had an accident, and woke up with a dry diaper. But that's weird right? 4 times in 14 hours?

xolastunicornxo I wouldn't stress.... I've always done all the bad things until I get a positive test. And I drink quite a bit. Let us know how your appointment goes! ☺️ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last week I had applied to some jobs, mostly in a fit of anger as I was frustrated in the moment w my current job. On the whole I really like my current job - the flexibility I have is amazing, plus I have an appropriate workload for this stage of my life, where my kids are extremely needy and the top priority by a gigantic landslide. Changing jobs really has not been a goal of mine and something tucked back in the nether regions of my mind. Well, of course one of those companies has contacted me for a phone screen. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit curious . . . I think I may take the bait and see what it's about.

But that's weird right? 4 times in 14 hours? I think that's pretty common among this age group. They're still learning how it feels when they need to go. Plus so busy ALL THE TIME playing and learning new things, they don't want to stop just to use the bathroom. Unlike me who uses any excuse to use the restroom just to get away from my desk! E will be running around, playing whatever, then just grab herself and say 'i have to go potty bad.' If she gets sidetracked on her way to the bathroom, it's like it never happened and I have to remind her to go!

Good morning! I don't think we have anything planned today. Tonight we are going to the ILs for supper and the H is having a slumber party with her cousin. She is so excited. I hope she behaves. S woke up with a low fever again. Yesterday she didn't have a fever in the morning, but had really soft poop all day so who knows what's going on. I don't know if she had a fever later in the day because I was at work. I think I might send another message to the pedi just in case. DH will be getting a card for Father's Day. Good luck at your appt xolastunicornxo

yummeecookee I'd participate in the phone screen, it never hurts to keep your skills sharp and see what's out there. It could be an amazing opportunity. Or they could suck and it would make you feel all the better about your current position!

Hang in there mamabear , the first month or so is a complete blur of wake ups, leaky boobs, trying to heal etc all while trying to make a new normal, give yourself some time. For me, it took a good 2-3 months before I felt I had a grip, otherwise I was just putting one foot in front of the other. What she said. And even after 8 weeks I ended up needing medication...

This is me to a tee; it's definitely gotten worse the last few years. I was saying yesterday to DH that I feel like I spend half my life just researching stuff...neighborhoods, photographers, vendors to do work in the house, most purchases...it never ends. For big stuff, especially, I'm so afraid of making a mistake, spending more than I need to (or not spending enough and bring unhappy with quality, etc), finding something I'll like more later...it is exhausting.

I'm sitting at my desk stuffing my face with ketchup chips, courtesy of vino. They're delicious even though I thought they sounded disgusting. I need to catch up on my emails and voicemails.

I have so much to do before MH gets home and I'm being so lazy about it. I just want to throw everything away instead of dealing with it 😬 My friend just found out she was having a boy so I found myself just gather all the baby boy things I still had and giving them to her.... I probably could've sold it and made money but I don't even care... it's GONE. Could not handle that inbox tgrimes.... I want to try ketchup chips though.... Can't hurt to check them out yummeecookee!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi ladies. I'm home today with a sick H. He woke up at 5am with 103 temp and then slept on me on and off for an hour or so.
Our cleaning lady rescheduled for today so we went to the grocery store after we dropped n off at daycare to be out of the house for a bit. Now he's napping and I'm holed up in my room and will probably nap too.
It's going to be a crazy busy week. It's our towns festival week that we are pretty involved with. Plus my coworker is gone all week at the conference I was supposed to go to, so I'll be busy at work every day. I'm supposed to have Thursday and Friday off but I'm sure I'll work a bit from home those days to keep up.
