Every damn time I turn over, baby boy decides to rearrange the furniture in there for like 15 minutes. Can't I just go back to sleep??? I feel sad for pregnant people who give up coffee. Coffee is life. Every pregnancy I go through phases where coffee starts tasting awful, like an ash tray. I am in one of those phases right now and I miss coffee so much!! I had a major coffee aversion during my last pregnancy up until about the 3rd trimester and it was very sad, the smell alone was nasty to me! So I drank a lot of tea and chai lattes. This time around, baby likes coffee and I am very glad for that

Coffee is life. Every pregnancy I go through phases where coffee starts tasting awful, like an ash tray. I am in one of those phases right now and I miss coffee so much!! I went through that in the beginning of both pregnancies - I have been drinking my coffee black for yeaaaaars and I just couldn't stomach it. Although this time early on, I was really struggling more with exhaustion and feeling crappy so one morning I decided to have a cup, but put some milk and sugar in it.
GAME CHANGER. I COULD DRINK COFFEE AGAIN. I've never looked back.

I’m glad that I’m not being overly emotional and pregnancy ragey. I feel validated that I’m not a bad parent because of nap time yoga.
Now the question becomes... do I chat with the director about off-hand comments? Or do I release it to the universe?

I would probably let it slide this time but if they say it or something like it again I would mention it to the director at that point.

quijiboI hope that teacher is good otherwise because if she wasn’t just having a bad day, she is in the wrong business. I know plenty of kids in the 2.5-3.5 range that don’t take naps at all anymore let alone in a school setting. Most end up being able to read or play quietly. I would probably let the comment slide this time but would maybe say something if a snide comment like that is made again.

I’m still getting to know this teacher, so we will see whether this is her M.O. or not. I’m going to release it and hope DD knocks it off soon. Friggin nap time yoga giving me a migraine 🙄

A few times each night I wake up with horrible Charlie horses in my calves. Luckily once I manage to get a good heel stretch I can fall back asleep. I feel like I’m already hydrated & I can’t possibly deal with getting up to pee more often!

I feel like I’m already hydrated & I can’t possibly deal with getting up to pee more often! I woke up with a horrible charlie horse in my calf last night too. It's the worst! This kid also feels like he's been punching me in the cervix all day over the past few days. I love feeling movement but hes' so low in my belly it has just been really uncomfortable the last few days.

I feel like I'm running out of space already, how am I supposed to manage 10+ more weeks of getting feet shoved into my ribs?

I refuse to buy any additional maternity clothes for this pregnancy. This is our last baby and I work from home. I am already as big as I was towards the end with DS2 and I will probably be really big in the end. I hate looking like a slob but I guess that’s how it’s gotta be.

+1 to the Charlie horse issues. I had a horrible one this morning. I’ve been feeling one coming on for about a week now but have been able to avoid a full on Charlie horse. NOT the case this morning. My calf is still sore :/

Woof. I did my glucose test today and once there they told me they redo all blood work now, so I had 5 tubes of blood drawn plus my tdap & rhogam shots. I almost passed out when I was checking out at the doctors office. I went to work after but just had to leave. I feel like 100% garbage.

I'm down to one pair of jeans and dresses at this point, hopefully it doesn't get cold!

I'm starting to get incredibly tired in the afternoons again. We're going to a concert tonight and I'm pretty certain I'll be sleeping in the car on the way home.

My bullshit tolerance is getting dangerously low, y’all. I need to be isolated from the public.

I’ve found I cannot handle my 3 yo without an afternoon nap for myself. There has been copious tablet time for her the last two weeks while I nap since she won’t.

I’ve found I cannot handle my 3 yo without an afternoon nap for myself. There has been copious tablet time for her the last two weeks while I nap since she won’t. Between 1 and 3 or so I basically can't keep my eyes open. I'm on vacation this week, and just home with my 3 yo today/tomorrow. He's been trying to give up naps, so I managed to sell him on the idea of a "power nap" where I promised he only had to lay in bed with mommy with his eyes shut for 10 minutes and then he could play. Luckily, I've bought myself about an hour nap in his bed yesterday and today this way. Last week I was basically keeping myself awake at work with snacks.
