I posted yesterday in the check in about feeling sporadic flutters the last three or so weeks, but I just felt the first full on kick. Awesome!! Love the reminder they’re in there and happy. I feel like I felt movement a few times but my placenta is anterior so I’d say it’s more likely just gas bubbles... 14 weeks today though so maybe it’ll get more frequent and I’ll believe it. |

I just had to coach myself through the grocery store. "Just because it sounds good, doesn't mean you have to buy it." The struggle was real to not just fill my cart with garbage.

I whined at H so much that he's bringing me home mac and cheese after his work tonight, hehehe. And on Friday I'm finally going to get the big mac I've been craving. IDEC that I'll probably puke after, or that H won't be happy with me. I am going to damn well enjoy my big mac

ETA: I meant to post this in the gear grinding thread, but oh well. Pretend it's there! 
Someone once told me that the best way to respond to someone inappropriately asking if you're pregnant (when you are pregnant but not telling people yet) is to just stare at them for a moment and say, "I'm going to spare us both from awkwardness and not respond to that." It's not telling a lie by denying it, but they will likely assume that you aren't and that they just insulted you.
When I was going through fertility treatments I put on weight and had abdominal swelling, and I def got the question about being pregnant a few times. I'd always just grab my stomach and say matter-of-factly, "What, this? That's just fat." They'd always look so uncomfortable. I'd probably use that now too if it was someone I wasn't ready to tell, because even if I like you, you should know better than to ever ask a woman that, and you deserve to feel like a prat for asking. |

Someone walked into the break room with pizza and I'm trying to figure out if there's pizza around that I'm somehow missing out on!

It should be not allowed to get a cold just as you're starting to feel better nausea-wise. Screw this shit.

Uggggh, my stomach feels so "blah". I'm not hungry, but I'm also not not hungry, but I also don't want to have to go through the trouble of actually making food that I might not eat.
I wish I had some cheese or something to at least snack on *grumps*

I'm thinking about maybe getting some anyways lol I got Taco Bell for lunch today because I've been craving it since last weekend and H didn't take me seriously when I've suggested having it for dinner this week. I forgot my lunch today, so instead of picking up a salad, I went there. It was delicious. |

I go to Qdoba pretty regularly for lunch, and I used to typically get a kids burrito bowl or quesadilla, but lately I've been extra hungry so I've gotten a full big-girl burrito. Both times the employee has commented about how they've never seen me eat a burrito and I must be hungry. I think they'll all have a little light bulb moment in a few months when I'm starting to show!
Also, ETA: for some inexplicable reason, those last two times I scanned my Qdoba card and it rang up the burrito as free. Def not complaining, but I'm at a loss as to why it is happening.

So I told my boss today. I was super nervous but she seems understanding. She asked me about my symptoms and if anything is affecting my work so far, which thankfully it isn't.
I kind of wanted to wait a little while longer but I have a lot of appointments coming up and I didn't want her to be like "damn, this girl just started and she's super demanding for days off".

I just caught up and appreciate that 75% of the posts are about food.
I just ate 2 cups of mashed potatoes because I woke up from my nap craving them. I wish there were more.

I slept 10 hours last night and napped for 2.5 this afternoon. This cold is the worst.
Now I want a burrito.

I don't trust my cravings. I don't like Popeyes, but I was craving it tonight and immediately regretted it. I didn't even make it home before throwing up.
That said, I'm still planning on getting gas station nachos when DS wakes up.

I asked V if he wanted to say good morning to the baby. He lifted up my shirt and said "hi Mommy's belly!" I asked "what about the baby?" He got close to my stomach and said "Go away baby!" and put my shirt back down.
I expect a lot of that over the next year.

DD is at my inlaws this weekend and I was excited about sleeping past 7 this morning. Unfortunately our neighbors get a new puppy and it was outside barking at 5 am. I'm not sure if the dog stays outside all the time or what. I'm *this close* to filing a noise complaint against the neighbors.

kookie3631, Ugh! That sucks! I remember having noisy neighbors and it was NOT FUN. My neighbors now are so quiet usually that I feel like I need to give them a gift basket to apologize for all the noise a newborn will be making lol

My cravings are oddly specific and confusing. Today I was craving a grilled cheese with bacon, tomato, and thousand island dressing. I made it and it was amazing and I'll likely make another in a little bit but normally I HATE raw tomatoes.

I have been craving all the milk/dairy products. I mean, I always love cheese--but I never, ever, ever drink a glass of milk at breakfast. It is so delicious now. We went to the food store today and I got pretty much everything in the cheese, dairy department.

Me too but I'm also not tolerating dairy at all right now so I'm basically living off lactase pills. |
