Hi everyone! Happy Friday! We have a fun weekend coming up- a wedding out of town. The wedding is right near Easton in Columbus (a huge outdoor shopping place) and I am SO excited to shop! I am thinking up what "mocktails" I am going to order throughout the weekend so no one is asking why I'm not drinking! (Me not drinking at a wedding will DEFINITELY be noticed, ha ha.) OMG, this was me at a wedding last weekend! I tried to go with sprite & grenadine thinking people would just assume it's a mixed drink, but no, they still asked. I thought it would look more like a vodka and cranberry but not really. I just said I was DD. Why is everyone so nosy!!? This is why I just tell my friends right away. I'm a BIG wine drinker and that's a hard drink to fake lol! And if I used the DD line they'd just say, "Umm y'all always take Uber..." But yes, people are nosy!!

I thought it would look more like a vodka and cranberry but not really. I just said I was DD. Why is everyone so nosy!!? I'm really surprised people didn't assume it was a mixed drink! I've done something similar (1/2 cranberry juice, 1/2 water, + a lime wedge) and no one even batted an eye. At least you had a back up cover story! ETA: Have also ordered a margarita at a group dinner, then excused myself to the restroom, found my waiter, and told him to make it a virgin because I was actually pregnant, but not ready to announce. It was pretty easy to pull off if you find yourself in that kind of situation.

AW! Had my ultrasound and baby looks great! I'm 7 weeks, 6 days so due date is Feb 3. Heart rate was 161. I do have a small subchorionic hematoma so hopefully won't have scary bleeding from it. *snip* Great news! How exciting I hope the subchorionic hematoma doesn't give you any trouble.

What I want to do is go back to bed. But I need to get my kids ready for the day and I should make some food for a friend who just had her baby.
As far as maternity clothes I liked Gap and A Pea in the Pod. Pink Blush Maternity also has some cute stuff, and I know Loft has a maternity line. Target has reasonably priced stuff. A Pea in the Pod is pricey, but the stuff fit well and wasn't crap quality. Old Navy is very questionable on their quality IMO.

. Since then, I've lost about 125 lbs, so I'm looking forward to having a little bit of a variety of stores to choose from now that I need to buy new clothes. Wow, congratulations!!!

I decided to brave a nap with my 4 & 7 year old still awake and roaming the house. Woke up 30 min later and could hear them peacefully playing and felt very relaxed. Then my 4 year old crawled in with me and told me she used toilet paper to make confetti in her room. I'm scared to check the damage. 🙈

Man I feel like holy hell today. Thankfully hubs is home taking care of the little. I am making soup and getting in bed (again). Hopefully I wake up feeling better.

Turns out she only used 4 squares of toilet paper. Still a mess, but not an epic disaster. Phew.

I am trying to decide whether to call the on call neurologist or not. I was sure my neuro was going to call today because my chart shows my medication level is still too low. Well I was busy getting K up from nap etc and now is after hours.
I wouldn't bother but I've just felt off this afternoon and have had a couple of my pre seizure feelings. If I had seizure I would call for sure. I want to give it the night and a good rest, MIL thinks I need to call tonight.

This morning I had the biggest headache that made me nauseous! I took some Tylenol which probably helped the headache a little, it's still there so let's see if it goes away or comes back.

readinglove ugh I feel ya. At the work picnic it was mainly all deli meats which I do try and avoid first tri or all together especially if I don't know where they came from. Hope you get something decent today! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk BBQ meatloaf. And they managed to mess up herb roasted potatoes. Dessert was good at least - cherry cheesecake!
