I feel like we are here to chat but no one wants to start the new thread!
That gif is me today. I can barely keep my eyes open. I took diclegis and then almost immediately threw up last night. Well since I just take a half dose and i threw up was so quickly after I took another pill. As tired as I am this morning I am wondering if ended up absorbing some or all of the original pill. Lol.
I have my ultrasound check late this morning yay for a look at the babe.

Good luck at your appointment today aggiebug, keep us updated!
And I hope post-op goes well for you peanutmuse, I would definitely ask for more pain meds. Too much pain is shown to lengthen healing time and you don't need that.
Snow??!! danib? Nope. Nope nope nope. It's almost May for goodness sakes!

I'm also so tired today. I hope the morning goes quickly so I can get on the road to my appointment. We'll be cutting it close with getting there on time so FX there aren't any issues with traffic.

Work has been horrible lately so I haven't been able to check in very much. The worst part is the constant conversations and phone calls from my boss. The man talks SO much...
FX for great ultrasounds aggiebug and starbuck27!! peanutmuse I hope post-op goes okay and the pain isn't too bad danib ughhh snow can seriously GTFO. Hopefully you won't get too much after all.
I'm grumpy bc the weather dropped 20 degrees to a high of 62.. Guess I shouldn't complain danib since you are getting snow!
Hoping for good appts for all!
I'm home with a sick toddler and I wish we could just hang out but I have to do some work where I can so I don't have to use a sick day. I better hustle and clean the kitchen and fold some clothes so I don't go insane with it nagging me all day.
I've been a little MIA the past few days. I haven't even done my ticker change post yet
We're at my parents' house all week and the idea was that H and I could work remotely while my mom watched DS.
Except that my mom conveniently "forgot" that we told her we'd be here the whole week (even though we've discussed it many, many times because it was the only way I would be able to still work this week), so she went ahead and scheduled herself a few days of work (she substitute teaches at a nearby high school). And then when she gets home she has all these plans she's made for us like meeting up with her friends or taking my grandma out to dinner, which would be fine if I'd had the chance to complete an uninterrupted day of work beforehand.
All of this basically means I'm busting my ass all day (and I mean all throughout the day...before LO wakes, while he's eating and occupied for 2 minutes, during his nap, and long after he goes to bed) just trying to fit in my work and make sure I'm billing enough hours, since I really appreciate the flexibility my job is showing me and want to make sure they know I didn't just treat this as a vacation.
And of course H has no fucks to give because his firm has an office down here so he just heads in there first thing and then goes out with friends afterwards and doesn't come home til midnight.
Tl;dr: I haven't been on TCF a whole lot because I've been using every spare second to try to fit in my work around family stuff that wasn't supposed to be an issue.
tallblonde where do you live? 62 sounds cool but quite nice.
Aren't we both in DC area? I may have misremebered. I live in MD suburbs. It's been so nice the past few days that I was spoiled...and the sun disappeared.
danib I hope today through Friday just flies by for you and you get to be reunited with H in a flash. I can't believe you are still dealing with snow!
I am just bloated and at work today, fun times. A coworker called me skinny yesterday and I wanted to turn around and plant a big ole kiss on her. I can't wait til this bloat turns into a real actual bump that I don't have to try and hide.
My boss works in another office (about an hour away) and he was in my office yesterday for a meeting with me and another account manager. I almost told him but I didn't have the guts esp since other account manager was there and now I don't know when the next chance will be. I assume an email is not appropriate? But if I tell him on the phone everyone else in this office will overhear.
dashook I'm sorry your week isn't turning out like it's supposed to, and feeling like even more work. I wish I had some great suggestion but it sounds like with your mom working and H at his office there isn't much of an alternative?
dashook ugh that sounds like misery. I'd be livid if my h was going out with friends mid week until midnight (tbh, id be annoyed of he even has a work happy hour). He should be picking up the slack so you can work at night.
I'd also be annoyed with my mom, but I could see her doing something similar. Could she take your LO with her and you skip her plans?
danib, where are you? Dh left me with a plow on the truck as well as a snow blower.
AFM: I made an egg sandwich this morning! Still can't cook bacon but DH gets home Sunday so starting next Monday I'll have all the paleo sugar free bacon I want! (As long as he cooks it while I'm out of the house...) Getting excited for Sunday!

I'm in Northern Virginia, and I agree that this change in weather sucks. Also, I don't know how it is in MD right now, but it's rainy here, so we're probably going to be stuck in the house all day.

Exactly. It just sucks because I thought I had set this up perfectly sonthat this wouldn't happen. My mom has done stuff like this before though so I guess I shouldn't really be surprised.
Re: your boss situation, that is really tricky. I do think an email isn't a great way to approach it. Is it possible to wait to tell him until you ae ready for the news to get to everyone (i.e. no concern over the fact that everyone will overhear)? Or can you find a way to be in the same location as him in the near future to tell in-person?

Ha tallblonde Yeah I am in Nova. After I posted I was thinking you may be one of the DC area ladies my brain is quite foggy forgive me.
I felt like yesterday was hot although I am wishing the sun was out and not drizzly I am OK with it being cooler.
My local promenade is having a grand opening of their fountain today bummer weather for that.

She definitely could and for the plans she made tonight I think that's exactly what will happen. I think what's frustrating is that I actually want to participate in these plans (and, y'know, do something else besides work basically from sunrise until 10 p.m.) but she has made it impossible to do so without just totally neglecting my billables.

. MIL does this too, but we already know she's a gem so I won't go on about it.
We have a mid year review in August but by that time everyone will see I'm clearly pregnant and he'll have heard through the grapevine. I could probably make a phone call in the hallway. Otherwise we literally do not interact whatsoever, I've spoken to him maybe 3 times since last March (as in 2015) when he became my manager.
danib I'm horrified you are still getting buried in snow. I'm in MN and we have been known to get snow this late in the year. It's terrible. I hope it melts quickly.
I had my first appointment this morning. Everything looks great. We couldn't find the heartbeat with the doppler so they pulled in the ultrasound. Little bean was moving and the heart was beating away. I'm excited to finally announce to family and friends this week.
kleigh if I were you, I would email him and let him know you have personal things to discuss with him. You guys can then figure out a time and locations (whether that's in person or location of phone). That will make it clear that it is not for public knowledge.
kleigh I'm sorry, I totally feel for you. When not pregnant, I have issues with headaches & migraines. I actually sometimes don't even notice the regular headaches anymore since I get them so frequently. I get migraines more often while pregnant so I try to only take tylenol when they're bad (otherwise I'd be popping them all the time). Have you tried drinking some caffeine? I mean, I definitely recommend the ice cream, but a little caffeine might help. Maybe you can get coffee ice cream to get them both at once.
I feel for people who deal with headaches... I don't know how you do it. I am not good at dealing with them, it's such a distraction I just want to crawl in bed. I'll def try some caffeine!!
