This has been the longest week ever. I feel out of sorts today. None of my clothes fit anymore, so in my scramble to find something to wear this morning I ended up in a plain tshirt and black pants, with only half my makeup done. I look insane.

Passed my GTT!! Woohoo!!! All the sweets for me.
OB appt this morning went well. Belly is measuring 31 weeks. Dr said he's impressed with my baby hiding skills because I'm still small but girls are measuring right on track.

Longest week ever, indeed. I have had the WORST headache for the past two days. It wakes me up during the night and makes it hard to function. Especially when you can only take freaking Tylenol. I was supposed to go out for "drinks" tonight with an old co-worker and thankfully she had to postpone. So as soon as I'm done with the mediation I'm doing this am, I'm going back to my couch to work from there...aka nap.

wannabmama potassium is good for headaches. Eat a banana and drink some coffee. You can also take a magnesium supplement to help with migraines. I had hormone induced migraines in first tri and they were a bitch. Hope you feel better!
akraus2015 - Also wfh today. Mostly due to the headache but also because everything is iced over and I don't want to risk walking on it any more than I have to.

Thanks for the suggestions! I got a coffee this morning and then couldn't choke much of it down but am now regretting it! I was prescribed magnesium before for migraines but totally forgot about that. This headache is a dooooooozy. I feel completely hungover.

Yay mustloveerica! I don't wish GD on anyone, it's such a pain. Glad the girls are on track!
akraus2015 sorry about the clothes dilemma. Most people won't even notice I bet
I'm measuring two weeks ahead but I'm under my weight gain goal. And they're taking her a week early already so no plans to growth scan. DS was 7lb 14oz and was eight days early & I gained almost the exact amount of weight with him so they aren't super concerned.
This week is seriously too long. I can't wrap my head around the fact that it's not Friday.
Ellie has had me up since 3:30 this morning. What started out as wanting to sing and poke me in the eyes turned into a raging fever and thrashing around on our bed. I'm so tired.

In the 3 minutes I was on the phone trying to pre-register with the hospital, DS threw up. So far it's just the one time & I'm praying it's not repeat of last year's norovirus nightmare. I feel a little queasy but I think it's just anxiety.
I'm trying to be productive today... it's not working too well, but I am trying..
Bleh, I'm so indecisive about where I want to deliver now... I had DS1 in a birth center in a hospital, which was the closest option to us at the time. Now that we've moved 4 hours away and are in a less rural area, I have options. There's one that looks like they're similar to where I had DS1 that's 45 minutes away but I was originally going to a woman's hospital 15 minutes away. Either way, my MWs have privileges. I thought my mind was made up but now I'm not sure. There's two large hospitals in the area that I'm refusing to go to and that's generally where most people deliver at. Sigh

Maybe we will have our babies on the same day at that women's hospital.
Thanks. It's E, she spiked back up today at my mom's again. She seems better tonight though, minus it taking four times to get her down for bed. I think her last molar is cutting through.

My new bottle of prenantal vitamins make me gag. They smell and taste soooo bad. And then I have constant acid reflux so I get to retaste them all day. I might have to trash these and go back to the Target brand ones.

I love my target gummies. They are my treat at night.

Which ones did you switch to?
I can't take gummies for that reason when pregnant

That'd be cool! I'm probably going to stick with the women's one due to convenience and the fact that we only need to stay 24 hours after birth. I need the head MW to be in the office sometime soon so I can ask if my MFM will let me go past my due date this time around. I get the feeling that he won't..
my MFM with DS1 saw me once, said do this after delivery, good luck! he never saw me again. This one is more cautious and I get monitoring every 4 weeks
