I got a charley horse MOTN last night and I forgot how much those sucked last time😩 It feels ok this morning though because I jumped out of bed and stood on it while it was happening. Guess I need to up my water intake though. Tonic water works wonders. It has quinine in it which helps to get rid of muscle cramps. My friend's dad is an orthopedic surgeon and he always recommends it when people are getting muscle cramps. It works really well if you don't mind the taste:) I'll keep that on the back burner for if I get really desperate- I hate the taste. I wish it could be something delicious that helped like a virgin daquari or something!

I woke up in a crappy mood this morning and it has only gotten worse throughout the day. I'm hoping to get a nap in once I get the boys down. I need it!

I'm not sure I'd be able to stomach it at all while pregnant!

Chinese food was just my savior. I felt so disgustingly full before hand and now I actually feel pretty okay. I think because it (TMI WARNING) eh....cleared me out if you will.
Speaking of TMI's, should we starting doing TMI Tuesday, UO Thursday or FFFC threads?

So I'm craving gummy bears which feels really random because I've never liked sweets first tri before. I'm going for it though and bought a huge bag earlier. Rama your name is familiar, where you in O17? I peaced out pretty quickly so it may not have been you.

cornpop, I don't know if it's a cute idea, but the first thing that popped into my mind was Carebears. Lol, I might have to think about it a little more.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm terrible at costumes in general but I really want to do something cute for Halloween this year!

Mmmm. Nap time for DS =nap time for me! Zzzzzz A nap sounds wonderful right now. One of my patients yesterday told me she was tired and asked if she could take a nap during our session. I wanted soooo badly to let her nap and doze off myself, but adulting and conscience and ethics told me no. I would definitely never do that but it sounded amazing. I think a nap is on the agenda for tonight though. I'm so excited.

I think for Halloween this year I am dressing up DD (2) as Boo from Monsters Inc. so I'll probably make my baby bump be Mike Wasowski and H can wear a blue shirt to be Sully. I'm about 90% sure that's what we'll do:)

I bought this dress this week and got it today. I wasn't sure with it being off of Amazon, but I'm pleasantly surprised. Anyhow, if you're looking for something cute and flowy to hide a small bump/blump, this dress would do it. I'm going to wear it with sandals while still warm and then with boots and a denim jacket during fall time. It's not maternity, so could be worn after pregnancy too. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else is needing something for that in between stage of pregnancy. 😊 www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B073VDTR6F/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Captain Morgan and tonic with a little lime juice tastes like cream soda! Sounds weird; but totally true. I highly recommend it in seven+ months. Lol.

you guys are making me feel like i need to step up my halloween game. i had already thought of a costume for dd, but now i think it'd be fun to do a family one🤔.
i haven't been around much, just been keeping on with new house stuff so not much to add. we have been going nonstop for the past two weeks and i am just spent. h is great, but i'm not sure he understands the extent of how exhausting all of this work is on top of just day to day stuff with dd. i think we're going to take it easy the next few days. my family does a golf tournament/family reunion every summer and it's this weekend. i don't golf, but there's always a pool party afterwards so we'll go to that. i do not feel like putting on a swimsuit, so i think i'll defer to h for pool duty.
i am also up for the daily threads!

We're super big into Halloween and go ALL OUT. I think we're going with traditional costumes this year which will be really fun. DD will FINALLY be old enough to really participate and I'm so so excited.

My band has a halloween concert every year and almost everyone wears a costume for it. I was going to go as a Ravenclaw student from Harry Potter, but depending on how much I'm showing I may have to change that.

Has anyone else felt like their body temperature is really wonky? I don't remember this from last time. Basically whenever I start feeling really nauseous, I also get really cold. Like painfully cold. Even when I'm not nauseous I feel cold a lot of the time.

Today, I feel like I'm burning up. Of course everyone else in the house said that the temperature is comfortable.

cornpop My temperature normally runs really cold (I also have very low blood pressure) so I'm always freezing. But now I go from cold to hot constantly. I remember getting really warm with DD too.

sammysam, could low blood pressure cause low temps? I've been wondering about my BP because I've been pretty dizzy this pregnancy as well. With my daughter I was SO hot all the time. It makes sense now because my daughter is so much more hot blooded than me. Like she'll be sweating and I'll be shivering.
