This is more of a random but is anyone planning on watching the big eclipse in August? I think the nearest place for us to see it is a few hours away but we have to road trip south that week for DH's brother's wedding anyway so my inner nerd is tempted to plan our trip down around seeing the eclipse. It is also DD1's birthday that day!

Oof. Exhausted today. Yesterday I was thinking I had a little more energy and my nausea was almost non-existent. Well, not today! Almost out of first tri, can't wait.

Good morning! Just a low key day here. I feel like low key weekends are so rare in the summer. I'm excited to lounge around. Our pool is green now and we are trying to figure out why... so probably no pool this weekend.

Hi! I'm up at my parents lake house this weekend so we are hitting up the beach and going out to eat tonight. My mom is always a big help so that's a major plus.
Hope everyone else enjoys the weekend 🙂

Good morning! I'm being lazy on my couch. G is trashing the living room and I'm letting it happen because I'm too tired to fight with her. I didn't fall asleep until after 2. The got up at 4 to pee and was up for the day at 6:40. Today we are going to a friend's house for a few hours. I kind of want McDonald's.

We have a busy weekend including a family birthday party where I'm hoping to avoid having to announce to everyone. h thinks since I'm 9 weeks it's not a big deal but I've had a lot more crop up this pregnancy and it's making me anxious.
I need to go maternity clothes shopping through, regular clothes are getting increasingly harder to fit.

Good morning! I woke up with the worst headache, which of course is making me nauseous. 🤢 coffee isn't helping boo! I've give hubs an hour then waking him up to take care of the little.

We got back last night from a few days in NY. Feels nice to be in our own home. Now I'm just sitting with my phone while DD quietly puts diapers on all her stuffed animals. No complaints here.
Oh, and I made waffles for breakfast in an attempt to please our two European guests (one from Romania and one Italian-Brit.) They liked them, but thought the maple syrup was "too sweet." 🤔

I need to go maternity clothes shopping through, regular clothes are getting increasingly harder to fit. I went to motherhood yesterday and bought a few things. They were running some sales like buy 1 get 1 for $5 on clearance stuff. They also had $5 tank tops and $8 scoop neck and v neck tees.

My kids are being whiny and clingy today and I have already lost my breakfast. Blech.

Coffee is starting to appeal to me again. It's sad to say, but I think I'm a noticeably better parent when I can drink coffee. I wouldn't say I'm a heavy coffee drinker normally, one big cup a day. But it's just much easier to focus on DS and have the energy to interact with him rather than just zombie-ing while he crawls around.

We have a fairly relaxing weekend planned. We went for bagels for breakfast, and we're off to the in laws pool after lunch.

I need to go maternity clothes shopping through, regular clothes are getting increasingly harder to fit. I have one pair of shorts right now that are comfortable and just a couple of shirts. I don't want to say how many days I've worn these shorts without washing them... I did order some shirts on Zulily and I have one on now. Technically is it maternity but just looks like a loose shirt so it is perfect for right now.

There was a big storm here last night and my whole house slept like crap. I feel like from 2:30-6 I barely slept. 😴
We are going to tell the boys today! I wanted to wait until after my N/T to make extra sure things were good. I originally wanted to wait until the 20 week but that's impossible. I'm Loki g forward to my almost 5 year old getting an explanation for why mom has always so tired!
My nausea and late evening sloth are back. I had like 3 good days and now this. I've seen it in the board before but it's so frustrating to get a taste of the good life and then get thrown back to this.

Bittersweet moment today. I stepped on the scale with DS so I could subtract my weight and see what he weighs right now. Us together, 180 lbs, equalled what I weighed in February when I started weight watchers. It's nice to have a reminder that I was able to lose 25 lbs and get healthier. But then I know that I gained 45 lbs with DS, and while I will try to be better about eating well this time, I might very well find myself back where I started.
No sense crying over spilt milk! Pregnancy means weight gain. I'll get back to where I want to be.

I'm working all weekend and I'm exhausted. Yesterday MH and I were both off and we did so much cleaning and organizing and perging. It felt so good since my house has been a disaster. I also went grocery shopping and did a big trip for home and for vacation next week. My feet hurt so bad today from barely sitting yesterday! I'm paying for it now

Night one of solo parenting was a success. I'm hoping I can get DS for a haircut this morning and then maybe take him to an indoor play gym since it's raining for the first time this summer.
I lost my prenatals again last night for the first time in a while. After this I pray I won't vomit for at least 8 years. So awful

I'm ready for the nausea to go away. I am seriously such a lazy ass and I feel guilty about it... But I just can't seem to make myself do anything.

snowyowl I'm sort of having similar feelings lately. I worked so hard to lose the weight from DD (I gained 45lbs too) and I guess I didn't think about how getting pregnant means gaining the weight again lol. So just wrapping my mind around the fact that I will have to do it all again sort of sucks.

I'm spotting. I'm trying not to think the worst, but of course that's where my mind is. And now I wish I wouldn't have told my DD I was pregnant today.
And of course it would happen on a Saturday night when I can't call the Dr until Monday.

Has anyone had GD before? I asked my doctor if I could just check early because I'm extremely anxious and want to have all my bases covered. She called me today and told me the test came back positive for GD. She's scheduling me for the longer version next week. I don't really have any experience with it and am trying so hard not to fall into the google trap but I'm just feeling so scared/angry/embarrassed that I've done something wrong and put the health of my baby is jeopardy. It's all just so confusing, I mostly follow a paleo diet style and don't drink juice or pop, don't typically eat white carbs and definitely no cake or anything like that. I'm not the most active person but I get 30 minutes in a day.
Sorry for all of this word vomit, MH is away this weekend and stuck in my own mind about this

notmoose I am sorry your having this, I had spotting for a good 3 weeks this pregnancy so I can totally relate on how stressful it is. Make sure you rest, and FX everything stops. Hugs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
