Hi everyone! I started training a new person at work today so my daytime reading will be at a minimum for the next few weeks. Our team is growing and our SME is likely moving into a manager role. I am really interested in that role but not the best timing with #2. I'll still go for it but I wish the timing was better.
My "morning" sickness has really ramped up in the evenings. I've been going to bed early but it means nothing gets done around here.

buckyb that's exciting about the new position - def go for it. A coworker just put his notice and I'm inheriting all of his work...so I think I'd be an idiot not to apply for that position, if I'm going to get stuck doing the work, I want his salary. Of course maternity leave and timing is in the back of my mind, but reminding myself to Lean In..
Sorry I didn't get to check in at all yesterday. This week has been the shittiest of shit. Today is the discovery deadline in this one case that's been killing me for weeks, so I am in the homestretch, but these next few hours are going to suck.
Wish me luck. I may or may not be rocking sea bands in this last deposition this morning.
Anyone else super emotional and clingy towards their H? Mine just left for a conference and will be gone until Sunday evening. Just a weekend and yet I had to fight tears when he left. Not normal for me and I think it scared him a bit.

Aw this is sweet but not at all fun I imagine! DH would probably get a little worried about me too if I did that to him!
We are heading to a cabin in the woods this weekend. DH's grandparents rented a big place out for the whole family. It is their 25th wedding anniversary and they wanted to celebrate.
I am having mixed feelings. It should be fun... But we were planning on telling them this weekend about the pregnancy but now I just don't know. Hopefully it will be a happy distraction.
I am excited at least to get to go kayaking and maybe on a bike ride!

Ugh this sounds terrible! Hopefully you make it through and the seabands help!!

I had to get up TWICE last night to pee! Before pregnancy, I slept like a rock and never woke up in the middle of the night. I think the frequent urination symptom has finally hit me.
cheshie6 - even with DH cooking, I have been eating out most meals. Everything smells nasty to cook it. If I were solo for several weeks, it would be all take out all the time!
sophiegrace - oh yes, super emotional towards DH. I did this last pregnancy too. I make him swear up and down he'll never leave me, show me tons of physical affection, etc. I sort of turn into an insecure preteen with her first boyfriend who she clings way too tightly. It's not even anything to do with my own body - I feel sexy during pregnancy, so it's not physical insecurity, just pure hormones.

I hope you're still able to enjoy yourself nuggetrn! It sounds like it has a potential to still be a very relaxing getaway for the two of you. Enjoy the kayaking!
Getting up to pee during the night gets me ragey cookswithwine9. I can never find that perfect comfy spot when I get back to bed.
Yup calindi!! Exactly. Total opposite from my norm too and I can't help it. Although I do get the short fuse that starbuck27 mentioned with literally everybody else. I'm annoyed with the world 98% of the time.
I get really REALLY mad. Like I don't have a short fuse. I have basically no fuse. I'm trying to keep it under wraps.
Just me?
That is me. It's calmed down quite a bit, but early pregnancy makes me rage. It was hard being patient with DS...I really had to work at it. Things have settled down for the most part, thankfully.
Dh leaves for most of the week on Sunday. I'm fine with it but I think there will be several times where I come close to losing my shit with my toddler. Love him to death but my temper is shorter these days.
I predict dinners out and parenting from the couch. Sorry not sorry.
@sarahwithanh, sorry to hear your success was followed by barf. It must be very difficult right now with such a dietary issue. I hope things get better as the weeks go by.

I'm really struggling. I think my earlier emotions with H leaving were less about him being gone and more about me being stuck behind. This conference was originally going to be for me to go to because they had an awesome RN inclusion, which most don't have. Then H decided he would come to and get the credits, plus the location is known for awesome restaurants so it would have been a great getaway for the two of us. Fast forward a few months and the other Drs of the practice find out we're going and want to go to. It's lots of credits and closer than most so while I understood, but I felt a little green since this started off as my thing. Whatever. Here we are today and all of them are up there getting ready to get taken out to rep hosted dinner at a four star restaurant and I'm stuck at home. Between being sick, the puppy having the reaction to her shots and being on three meds, and us feeling meh about our dog sitter lately H thought it was best to stay home to 'rest and relax' in my own bed. The dogs have been complete assholes today for some reason that I can't figure out and of course I feel better than I have in a month. And I'm stuck at home. I'm sorry for the rambling rant. I haven't been anywhere but home and work in over a month and it has really gotten to me mentally.
sophiegrace, ((hugs)) that all sounds really tough. I'm sorry you're stuck by yourself I hope you can find something to do tomorrow to spoil yourself a little!
sophiegrace I'm sorry, that sounds rough. Maybe you can treat yourself this weekend to a pedi or movie or something, just to get out for a bit. I totally understand feeling antsy when you're cooped up at home too much.
htk1113 and @sarahwithanh DH is out of town right now and I have prepared exactly 1.5 meals since he left yesterday am. Everything else has been out. Sorry, not sorry.
We had a busy day today...did toddler time at a new trampoline park with friends this morning, followed by lunch/playing at Chick Fil A; then my mom and I took DS to Zootopia. It was his first movie and I think for a not quite 2.5 y.o. he did pretty well! After naps we met my parents for dinner and now we are settled in for the night. I have a new book that I'm about to start but will probably just fall asleep

Thanks guys, I've calmed down and now feel like a brat. I could have easily left the house today, but instead let myself get worked up. I'll have to find a way to explain myself to H so that he knows how I'm feeling without making him feel guilty. These pregnancy hormones are no joke!
dashook how did the disposition go? Did the sea bands do the trick?
sophiegrace, don't feel that way. Mh goes on trips for work and play quite a bit and i've definitely let my envy show. This was before I was filled with prego hormones. It sucks always being left behind.
Add me to the list of really terrible MS. I'm really struggling to eat or drink anything. Lemon ice was amazing yesterday!! But I lost the rest of my dinner and half my lunch today. I have a gluten intolerance and I just can't find the right combo to help me with the ms.DH is out of town this weekend. Just NO to cooking. I don't know what I will do all weekend.
I've found peanut butter toast to be a lifesaver. It is literally the only thing I've eaten in the past month that has never come back up. I really hope you find something that works for you too.

It went okay! I ended up forgetting to put them on before I started it haha, but it was short so I managed not to vomit on everyone!! Thanks for asking
Well I just found out that the fruit Ds and I use in our smoothies has been recalled due to FUCKING HEPATITIS A contamination!!! Like What The Fuck? I'm just eating McDonald's from now on. All the healthy stuff is trying to kill me.
