Yesterday dd wanted to go on a picnic. We ended going on 2. One for lunch and one when ds came home from school for snacks. It was a beautiful day. They played in the water a little after we ate. The lake is in our back yard, but we always walk over to the dam because they like to play between the 2 lakes.
Much better thanks for asking! Sudden burst of relaxin or something.
Our county finally closed school tomorrow for widespread illness. Every surrounding county has been out Wed., Thurs., and Fri. We've got major issues with flu, strep, and the stomach bug. My school is pretty small and we had 10% of students and 20-25% of staff absent all week due to it, and that doesn't include the many more who were sent home sick. I'm relieved I don't have to worry for a little bit about catching any of them, and I'm excited to sleep in!
JoBub we had a hot tub when my sis and SIL were pregnant and we turned it down to 99 or so. It still feels pretty darn warm compared to the outside temp. I know they both went in but went back and forth from sitting on the edge to in the tub. I would bring a huge glass of ice water and just go by how you feel. I could see a doctor going either way on this issue. Maybe don't do it super often.
^wss. Why not just keep the hot tub 97-98F? It will still feel amazing.
We took advantage of a Babies r us sale to get the skip hop stroller cuddle bag for next fall winter then went ikea because our crib was on sale. Crib, dresser and shelf for less than 600 dollars wheee. The crib I liked at BBB was 600 on its own!
Oh and I got in a fight with DH because I didn't want to buy the Evenflo Symphony that was on sale 100 dollars off. I am like dude: never buy a car seat with out seeing if it works in your car, we won't be using it until summer 2018 and it is only good for 8 years after manufacturing date so we could lose 2 years of use on it and make the 100 dollars savings negligible.
I have been following car seat standards and developments for ten years and he always thinks I am making shit up to stop him from saving money!!!

I forget - where are you from? A friend of mine from Texas just had this happen to her school district as well. Crazy coincidence if it's the same area!
Southeastern TN. This year's virus must be a particularly nasty strain!

There will be another sale, Mr. Juliayadda. Don't waste the time you can use the seat!
H is worried about my feet swelling (last pregnancy it was horrible), so he bought me Minnetonka moccasins for valentine's day to wear around the house.
I accidently opened them thinking it was,something I got on amazon. He wrote a nice note in it. I cried.

Guys I'm freaking out. Yesterday morning walking outside to the car I slipped on ice and fell down a few stairs. DH was behind me carrying all my stuff and couldn't catch me. I tried to catch myself the best I could and ended up landing on my butt/back and elbows. I called the dr of course and she said that it's probably fine because the baby's so protected but to call back and come in if I bleed and cramp. Well on my way down my right leg shot out from underneath me and I think I pulled my groin because of that and it's been sore ever since and it's making me all nervous even though I haven't had any abdominal cramps and the dr tried to reassure me. Anyone else experience a fall during pregnancy that can speak to this at all? I just need to slow my brain down 😥

surprisemomat24, ouch! Sorry about the fall:( I would probably listed to the dr and see if there's any bleeding or cramping before freaking out too much. It's true, the baby is super protected right now because of the size and position.
I'd take it easy the next couple days, and if you can't seem to calm the anxiety, there's always a trip to the ER.

I'm so sorry! I bet that hurt. I just wanted to assure you that baby is probably fine. My friend stepped in a pothole and fell directly on her stomach at 8 months pregnant and she and baby were totally ok! They're nice and cushioned in there!!!

My cousin fell on the day of her baby shower and landed on her arm and hit her belly, baby was totally fine.

I slipped on ice and fell down my concrete steps on Tuesday, and also fell down my carpeted stairs the other day. Clumsy much? Don't worry, you are fine.

easilyunamusedMissSallymorwen @pianolove toadandbuggie thank you so much ladies ❤ hearing it from other mamas has definitely helped ease the anxiety!!! I wasn't about to go to my mom she would have freaked and had me go to the hospital 🙈 so thank you again for the support! Being a first time mama is so exciting but very nerve racking so I'm very happy to have the support ☺
surprisemomat24 I'm sure everything is fine. I've heard lots of stories of ladies falling down lately and not one of them has had a problem because of it. I'm sure just a bit of a startle for LO. Take it easy the next couple days but I'm sure baby will be just fine.

With my son I fell many a times including sliding down a flight of stairs. Our bodies are designed to protect them. Think about the flesh that padded your fall and th bones between your fall an d the uterus and then of the big squishy muscular uterus and then all the fluid and then the fact that baby at this point is mostly cartilage. I hope this is comforting to visualize but my main point is that they are cushioned.
When will the boobs stop hurting? Or do they ever? My boobs and nipples KILL. I've already grown two full cup sizes and I feel like there is nowhere else for them to go.
Also any suggestions on where to find not-super-expensive weird bra sizes? I think I need a 34DDD or 34E.

MissSally I wondered if my boobs would ever grow this pregnancy. I figured with nursing it stopped the pain in the beginning. Then I stopped in December and they just started hurting 2 weeks ago. I went from being just barely able to fill a B cup to a D in a matter of 2 weeks. Anyway I'm right there with you with the pain.

I have found 34DDD at Victoria Secret and 36 DDD may fit close to a 34E. I was 36DD before getting pregnant went up to DDD in first tri and I am anticipating I will need 36G nursing bras blarg. That is what happened with my son.

I was wondering that myself. I did not have this with DS. My boobs feel like it felt when I didn't nurse for awhile with DS. I wear a size FF bra and they're so expensive. I usually go to Nordstrom but it's at least $70 a bra. I really need to buy new ones too but don't feel like spending the money.
Anyone else hit with pregnancy insomnia? I feel like it's super early to be up all night, I didn't stop sleeping well until the third trimester before. 😖

I just came in here to post this! I hate pregnancy insomnia. I just want to sleep! I don't remember it starting this early last time.

At least we have the board to read at 2am lol. My doctor did say I could take Tylenol pm so hopefully that helps.

This is where I went for nursing bras last time. I'll probably go there once they stop growing but I don't want to fork out the money until I know I won't be growing out of the bra in a week.
My boobs haven't grown too much yet, but I CAN'T wear underwire anymore. I'm wearing sports bras and I got a relatively cheap nursing bra from target to get me through.
I am so cranky today. I'm just feeling fat and tired. I haven't had an appt in what seems like forever so I am already needing the reassurance that I'm still pregnant- can't wait for the appt on Tuesday. For now it just seems like all my clothes make me look fat for no reason at all.
