I had an appointment today and the doctor did a quick ultrasound peek before the doppler (I think it’s his standard so he doesn’t waste time figuring out where the baby is lol) and he paused and said “yup, that’s a boy alright!” And showed me the kid’s junk. It made me laugh but also like omg it really is a boy. Apparently I believe things I see with my own eyes over DNA. It was so great to see him and hear his heart beat, although he did look at us face-on and that gives the freaky Voldemort face rather than the cute side profile. Ahhh. I also got a prescription for my heartburn and I cannot wait to pick that up this afternoon. God bless Prosilec. My DD did this at most of the ultrasounds I had. It was frustrating for the tech because she needed measurements of her nose. I was high risk with her so I saw the MFM every month. It took a few for them to finally get it. Stinker. Fits her current personality. I should have known.

Oh my word I ate too much at dinner and I literally feel like a giant ball that could be rolled around the room. This is not ideal for my currently very very slow digestive system 😲

TMI but the constipation is here. I just had a real grunter. Guess it's time to start eating 1-2 prunes a day.

I was so, so sick yesterday. I ended up calling in sick today though, because I’m so tired I just want a nap and we’re going out tonight. I feel slightly bad about taking today off.
I think my H is finally coming around to me staying home after mat leave. I’d love to work part-time, but my boss won’t go for it. I just feel like we’re barely surviving now and would love to just have everyone be less stressed out all the time.

Any Fitbit geeks here? I love data, most of all my own. 😝 I’ve been insatiable with hunger and super tired the last few days, and I looked at my Fitbit data and.... Pre-pregnancy, a typical day including a HIIT workout: Now, about half-baked, no workout, not even a walk: Omg!

Wow Tlex! I wish I had some data to analyze. I do think my heart is beating faster than normal. I read that we have ~25% more blood circulating than normal. So it explains why I am SO tired all the time!

OMG I had to get up and move seats on the train because the guy that sat next to me was reeking of.... garlic mixed with something terrible? I gagged for the first time in awhile.
My super sniffer is still happening and I swear I can smell people's scents from like 12 feet away. The train is the worst for it, but at least it's not hot anymore. I wish everyone just smelled neutral of soap and nothing else. But that is definitely not the case.

Ugg my pregnancy anger is ramping up. I was so annoyed with everyone yesterday. My kids, my boss, my husband was being extra helpful so I was happy with him. Today seems better though. I have too find more patience some how. It is a long time until April.

I have too find more patience some how. It is a long time until April. Two mornings this week I’ve woken up in rage mode. Thankfully it hasn’t lasted long but I know it’s not fun for my family. 😞

I’m so over work. We’ve been down a person for almost a year with no good applicants, we finally found someone we all like, made the offer and she already accepted somewhere else. I could cry.

Eames I hate my super sniffer. My parking garage at work is just awful. It’s underground and with the rain we’ve had, the dampness just carries the smells. And also I can’t kiss H. He takes it super personal but his breath made me throw up last week. Sorrrrrrrry.

He had had Italian food for dinner and it was very potent 🤢

I just need to whine. I was up like every hour last night bc I couldn’t get comfortable. I’m still uncomfortable today and I just don’t feel good. All I want is to lay down and be left alone but MH works out of town a few days a week and I’m solo with my kids. 😩😩

I am now in an ankle splint, thanks to my tumble on the stair landings three weeks ago. They didn't want to xray due to possible complications. PCP said we'd reevaluate the xray in 2-3 weeks if there's still pain and or swelling. I'm mostly bummed because we planned on taking A to Boo at the Zoo this weekend.

I was feeling great and ate a delicious cookie tonight that turned out to be evil. It made me get sick, where I simultaneously peed my pants, and then had to walk back into the bedroom to change after getting cleaned up. Of course where H was, who ignorantly asked me where my pants were so I got to explain it all too. So sexy. 😑
