There seems to be a crap load of team blues! I'm hoping that I have a team pink on Saturday to help even things out 😂

fknhostile has almost convinced me it's a boy though from the nub theory, won't be disappointed if it is though!

cnf2013 I think the start to your day deserves a special treat! Sorry for the bad night.

I stopped at Dunkin for a giant latte and a breakfast sandwich. I felt like I deserved it.

Went back to bed around 4am and fell back asleep. Toddler was screaming again at 515am. My alarm goes off at 530. For real, kid. Brought her to bed with us, she went to crash down on the pillow next to me and landed her dead weight big head righ5 on nose. It's been throbbing ever since and now I have a splitting headache. Today's going to be a day, I feel it.

Oh man, I would be such a grouch after a night like that. I think you get a free pass. Hope your day goes better.

I will never understand how some people can sleep with the tv on- or NEED the tv on to fall asleep. That's crazy to me!

It's been an enormous compromise in my life. I dislike having the tv when I'm trying to sleep.

My students are driving me effing crazy. JFC.

oh no! Yours can really go either way. I guess boy but I wouldn't be shocked if you heard girl!

At my scan this morning I swore I saw a boy nub but no pictures to obsess over. I'm thinking I've got boy #4 on the way!

[beefinch]

Well my night shift tonight is going to go great.

I just cannot switch off and sleep. DS is still napping so I could of gotten a good 2 hours in, but no.

I'm thinking my energy levels are kind of turning back to normal (during the day that is) as for the past 3/4 days I haven't really felt the need to nap and when I did I had a hard time falling asleep that night. I mean that's fine but not when I'm on a night shift lol. Luckily we do get a 2 hour sleep break, and I always rest/sleep then.

My hamstrings and general endurance are facing dire times due to my inconsistent or lacking commitment to physical activity. I'm proud that I notice there's been a decline, meaning that I was doing pretty good for awhile, but I'm also super pissed that I have to start from the bottom with even more stacked against me.

I get this. I have been so sick and so tired, I haven't exercised since... well probably since week 4 or 5 when I started getting nauseous. I had been exercising about 5 times a week on average. That is my norm. I feel so out of it. But I also just can't physically do it right now. So I will just have to get back into it later.

My one friend has done about 20 races over the course of her pregnancy ranging from 5ks to half marathons. She just did what she said would be her last race this weekend, but she didn't think she did well enough so she might try to do one more. She's 35wks.

And I'm over here moaning and groaning through gentle yoga. Sure.

That's my mom. Vacations where we had to share hotel rooms were the worst. DH would love to fall asleep to the TV if I would let him.

You should rethink your friends

I'm with everyone else who's slightly disappointed by my slowing endurance and athletic ability. Coupled with the lack of enthusiasm, things are pretty pathetic. However, since I was woken up early by DH getting a text from a coworker, I got up and did a 15 minute prenatal yoga video. Admittedly, it felt pretty good, and I certainly was tight! Maybe I won't get a headache today now.

RE Running while pregnant: my friend is 39 weeks and still going running daily while pushing her 2yo in a jogging stroller. She also lives where it's stupid hot out already. She's like a super hero.

[bostonbaker]

I always thought I would be that person who runs while pregnant. It turns out I am not. I tried once with my first pregnancy, couldn't pace myself slow enough, and almost passed out then spotted. No thank you.

I am team NO TV while going to sleep. My H loves falling asleep with the TV on and gets mad even when I turn it off after he's asleep.

[blabbermouth]

No running and No TV in bed! Let's start a club

[beefinch]

I don't even get changed in the morning if I don't plan on leaving the house that day.

I do however get the child changed as I don't like seeing him run around in PJ's

So that would be a big fat no to running

[peggels24]

cnf2013, Ugh - you deserve all the DD!!

[peggels24]

Had an OB appointment this morning. Baby hid from the doppler again - so yet another surprise ultrasound for a quick peek. Everything looks good

[RoLoMa]

Maybe an UO but we don't even have a TV in our bedroom. I read a thing a million years ago that to get your best night of sleep your room should only be used for sleeping and sex. So that's how it goes at my house. I actually really like it but maybe just because I am so used to it.

[bostonbaker]

LMK if you guys all head over to SM. I can't keep up with the state of the board thread.

Scary Mommy ... they have a proboards forum. peggels24,

I set up an account. I had a meeting and totally missed what the final straw was ... I am happy here in this BMB though, so not sure if I will be moving over.

No TV in our bedroom either for the same reasons lol. We must have read the same article ... not that it helps DH get laid anymore frequently lmao.

[blabbermouth]

We already have two TVs, so we don't have a third in the bedroom. On occasion, for a special treat (ha!) we watch something on the tablet in bed

It seems like a lot of work to switch to a different board? I haven't been around that long to know why everyone cares so much? It's staying afloat for now, isn't that good enough. We certainly have enough people to chat to in this month group. *shrug*

I set up an account there but I haven't decided for sure if I want to follow. I'm not super impressed with how things have been handled here but I'm also really affected by it all either. What's everyone else doing?

[peggels24]

Ugh. I don't really want to move again. But I really like you guys and don't want to lose you either.

I read most of it. Concerns are legit IMO. People want accountability it seems and are upset that they aren't getting it. Admins have serious stuff going on and aren't available. It way spiraled out of control.

Eta to clarify I think both "sides" contributed to the spiraling/craziness.

This is where I'm at.

I vote we keep our bmb here for the time being
