salmon2017, I'm traveling to TX next week and I'm moving there in June. I'm already trying to plan a good breathable wardrobe for those last few months. I won't be walking around in the cute dresses. I will be in some kind of breathable long sleeve and jeans.

Just random musings on my end over here.
I announced at work today & it feels so good to be able to talk with everyone in my office & explain why I'm eating every second of the day.
I want a cherry Icee now.
I am picking up some maternity shorts that I bought on an app today. The girl I'm buying them from works at the local sports bar so we are meeting there & I talked DH into dinner. I'm pretty excited.

I am not sure where in Texas you are going, but you can definitely survive in jeans in the summer because everything is air conditioned. Just don't plan to spend time outside. If you are outside, you will die of sweat dehydration and heat exhaustion. Instantly. I do plan to wear dresses, but I will be head to toe covered in DEET and will not go out after dusk, which is when the mozzies come out.

Re: Zika, I live in Texas and consulted with my OB last summer before we TTC, because I was worried. I told him we were waiting till after the summer so there would be fewer mosquitoes, less risk, and so on. His response was that probably, eventually, Zika will come to our city - it may be here already but we just haven't identified any cases. He was not recommending that any of his patients delay TTC, just to take precautions against mosquito bites. His opinion was that there are many mosquito-borne illnesses that are dangerous to pregnant women and fetuses, zika is just our most current concern. Precautions in locations such as this, and Brownsville, and Florida should always be in place, but the risks are low enough that it should not stop you TTC.
I am not sure if that helps. Of course, take any steps you need to protect yourself and your baby. Delay or cancel trips if you need to or want to. I am living here and will keep living here till my baby is born. It will be okay.
I've already talked with my PM and she agrees the trip should be canceled. Its not absolutely necessary that I be located in our facility. And besides it's business related, and I doubt the company wants to put me at risk in any way.

I had an out of town meeting this afternoon after a lunch meeting. I ended I not feeling well so took a unisom while driving. I got to the meeting early and definitely took a 20 minute nap in my car before going in

caybeh I went through a period recently where all I wanted was Taco Bell. I think I've eaten it twice in 5 years...until two months ago...when I probably ate it 10 times in three weeks, easy.
TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5. BFP (at home 7dp3dt, confirmed 14dp3dt with 1552 beta) and U/S at 5w5d, 2 sacs and 2 yolks!

My daughter was such a gem today, we had an awesome day and then she went to bed at 6pm, a whole hour earlier than usual. And I have chips and jelly beans. It's pretty much been the best day ever.

. Aaaaauuuugghh you guys are making me want taco bell and it's probably been 15 years since I had it. Like, when the Chihuahua commercials and chalupas were new things. Do they still have chalupas?
Gotta try to think about something, anything, else now.
Two of my kiddos are available for adoption as of today. I was able to have parents relinquish and don't have to go to trial.
When I read the first line of that post I totally thought it was a joking, omg my son(s)/daughter(s) are driving me completely bananas and are free to a good home. Oopsie!
Glad you don't have to go to trial - that sort of trial must be so miserable for all involved. I hope the kiddos are or soon get into a safe, loving, forever family!

Also mambo so sorry it seems like your choleostasis is starting this soon. . FX that the next bloodwork comes back better and the itching settles down and you'll at least have a little longer before it really starts.

Always a sad situation but sounds like a good outcome, considering. I'm doing a guardianship trial next week where the parents will not relinquish, but really really should, it's so sad.

Dd just fell asleep (I'm a crazy fool who cosleeps, though never intended to before she was born, and still nurses dd to sleep ... Which needs to get fixed but not right now...) And I should totally get back up and A, have a more proper dinner, like with vegetables, not just call the stuff I ate in the car on the way home dinner, and B, finish packing - we leave MOTN tomorrow night for trip to visit dh's family in Mumbai. Oh and laundry. But I am so tired I'm going to just stay and go to sleep wishing really hard for a series of miracles in the morning, including: a two hour delay for school, not actually a very time-consuming amount of snow to shovel, and dd sleeping in, so I can get closer to finishing packing then.
I'm emotionally exhausted today. I got told I sucked at life and my job for two hours but at the end of the day I say a group of kids that I've been working with for months but because of my promotion they are getting a new case worker. All of the kids and their foster parent told me how much they liked me and that they would miss me. A preteen willingly hugged me and told me they would miss me. I almost pregnancy hormone cried

I ate so much Taco Bell when I was pregnant with DD that even my friends told me they thought of me as they would drive by there. We haven't eaten there much lately.

I have been having dizzy spells and I wake up feeling so queasy and dizzy that I have to sit down on the floor and then slowly make my way to the kitchen for something to put in my stomach. I feel like I do when I have a stomach virus. If I stand too long I'm going to pass out and I feel like I need to vomit and have diarrhea all at the same time. Except I can't vomit and I'm lucky if I can poop. Sorry for the tmi. I'm just so miserable when I wake up. Out of all my pregnancies, this one is kicking my butt in the MS department.

I love our Thursdays. It's our only day in the week that we don't have anything going on. I need to clean the bathrooms as they are gross and we need to buy some birthday presents. But it's stuff that we can do whenever we want today.

That sounds awful. I hope you can get some relief soon.
Thanks ladies, once I got some orange juice I felt better.
caybeh, I was thinking about that this morning so I will likely put something there for tomorrow.
@mattsgirl2004, L is the same way. As you know, he had some health issues the first year too and his attachment to me is so strong, all he wants is mama. I'm glad you got some sleep last night. I know how glorious that can feel.

I told MH this morning that I had been feeling less nauseous the last few days and it was a nice break. Should have just kept my mouth shut bc the MS is back. Blah
Also, I hope y'all feel as empowered as I did when reading that book. I felt like I could PT an army of toddlers, lol! DD got the hang of it pretty fast (although I didn't have the same obstacle as daycare) bc I didn't give her a choice. Her only option was to move forward with no diapers.
