Monday Symptoms/Randoms/LetsHearIt

[mrsmonogrammed]

You know the drill:)

[mrsmonogrammed]

Symptoms: Slept like crap last night....kept rolling over to get comfy and taking like 10 minutes to fall back asleep every time! Annoying.

Randoms: H and I watched GoT last night and thought the episode was kind of boring:(

But I got some cute thank yous this weekend to use for after my shower. They (sort of) match the invitations so I was excited to find them in the Target $1 bins!!

DS slept in his bed for the first time last night!! I can hear him just starting to get up now, which is a little earlier than usual but it sounds like he might just be finding his books. He would often keep himself busy in his crib for about half an hour before wanting me to get him so I'll see how content he stays for a bit longer yet. And we'll see how the rest of our attempts go from this point forward, but it's super exciting!

[Bluedaisy]

Springbreak is over So sad that I didn't get all of my stuff done. But since I don't have playground supervision I am totally rocking flip flops this morning.

DD has another cold and I was up a significant portion of the night listening to her coughing. None of my usual tricks (humidifier, plug in mini vaporizer, baby Vicks, saline spray, nosefrida, drink of water, etc.) worked.

One of DD's daycare teachers made a comment this morning about how DD really can't tolerate regular milk. She has been having diarrhea recently and we assumed it was because of her cold, but if they gave her the wrong milk again that is very irritating. They have "allergy alert" papers with pictures on them at the table she eats at so I don't know what else to do.

I need to work on trying to control my facial expressions better. I gave the "WTF face" a few too many times yesterday and my IL's noticed it.

[mrsmonogrammed]

tiffbot that's awesome!! He looks so tiny in that big bed!

Widget123 at least your in-laws notice your WTF face, mine just seem to ignore it and keep on doing whatever WTF thing they were doing before.....gotta love 'em. Seriously makes me wonder how they managed to raise my H!!

I'm super annoyed that I can't properly capture baby movements on camera! They are SO BIG and crazy looking, but when I turn the video on they always die down. Are you ladies enjoying your big movements lately? I think I just want to share in the fun with someone!

[leenziepops]

THREE June babies already? !

[Deleted]

Really rough night of sleep last night. Maybe it was our June mama deliveries but I was having cramping and strong sharp pains on the right side of my groin last night and basically convinced myself I was going into labor. It was probably trapped gas though as I'm feeling fine today.
It's thunderstorm season so that interrupted my night of sleep too... It's going to be a long Monday.

[tiffbot]

Haha @jemomma, sorry! We'll see how this continues to go and what happens when he realizes how free he is or when baby is here!

tiffbot I am glad your DS's first night in his big boy bed went so well and I hope he keeps it up!  Its funny, for DD's first few nights we put all of these gates up thinking she would get up in the middle of the night and wander, but that has yet to happen.  Its been a few weeks and she still just sits in her bed calling for me and waiting for me to get her.  It would be nice if she played in her room quietly a little bit after she woke up.

[mrsmonogrammed]

carolyngrace I was literally JUST trying to do that this morning!! As soon as I turned on the camera, nothing. Stubborn baby girl!! I'm hoping to catch it in the next few weeks before movement slows down...

@bubbs119 congrats to your H! That IS perfect timing so send the baby belly dancing:)

[junch817]

I miss the days of excitedly crawling into my bed to go to sleep for the night. Now I cringe. It hurts. Everywhere. If I fall asleep for the night within an hour, that's a great night. Most nights I am awake for at least 2-2.5 hours, and when I do sleep, it's not a good restful sleep. I never experienced hip pain with my first, but I am sure making up for it now. My hips feel like they are going to burst open and out of my body. 8 more weeks of this and it will only get worse. Definitely throwing myself a pity party today.

[mrsdee1982]

Me today:

[noeliav]

I went to a baby shower for a FTM yesterday. It was really cute to see how "first-timey" she is... if that makes sense.

I'm over the third-trimester nausea/vomiting.

I'm tired. Sleep sucks.

Baby boy is making movement in my cervix. It's disconcerting. Please stop, little person.

@jemomma's gif sums up life at the moment. lol

[mrskblack11]

Had a fun filled weekend and I am so exhausted.

This weekend I got a "you look smaller in person than in your pictures!" and then followed up with a "I bet he will come early"....... So are you saying I look huge in my photos, smaller in real life but still big enough to think baby is going to come early. Thanks.

[junch817]

GIFs have not been working on this app for a few weeks now and I hate it and can't figure out why. It's bad enough they don't play automatically and I have to click them, but now they don't even play at all. Wahhhhhh!!!!!

[junch817]

And @kej0004 I am seriously so happy for you. Jealous, of course, but 99% happy. That must be awesome to have energy like that! Live it up girl haha!

[maddib]

Ugh last night sucked so bad!! So sore and tired today. SIL gave birth to her little boy this morning. We have had our nephew all weekend who is a few years younger then DS so at least they play well together but I haven't had a nurse for DD all weekend and I need a shower!!! Still no nurse today so who knows when I will get that shower.. And these boys are crazy!! The house is a mess and I don't feel like cleaning it! DH made dinner last night cause I was in pain and brought it to me in bed. Which was nice until I woke up to the shit storm that is my kitchen this morning! Seriously I would have been happier with a cup of ramen instead of cleaning up this mess!! Oh well. He tried..

[bendherova]

I woke up with some hip pain MOTN, but it's gone now. heartburn continues, and BH it seems too.


Also for randoms-- DS1 had his 4yr well child today. Thank the lord he's done with shots until he's 11. damn. We even pretended to give his rescuebot figures the shots before he got them, and he still tried to inject the nurse instead of himself. (seriously I was worried she'd been stabbed).

Also, he's in the 100th percentile for height at 44.5in which amuses the math nerd in me bc how can you prove he's taller than 100% of other kids his age?

[wegrowsheep]

Yesterday I attacked one of 20 or so things on my non-baby to do list. I planted most of the rest of the tomatoes for the market garden (in the ground), and transplanted about a quarter of the ones for our plant sale.

I think a truck ran over me while I was sleeping.

DD and DH are on spring break, so I'm still in pj's. Looking for motivation to do housework...

Ooh girl, I am in the same boat. I've started to sleep horrible at night. Can't get comfy, and once I do, I lay there wide awake. That or something starts to hurt.

I also thought GoT was sort of boring. Definitely didn't have that panache I come to expect from the season premier. Sadness.

[flbabychin]

This weekend flew by, and I didn't do nearly as much as I was hoping to. However, I don't feel that stressed about it today - which is unusual and kind of nice. Instead, my typically calm DH called me this morning from work freaking out about a number of things with the apartment, baby's room, and car, and I had to calm him down.

I slept miserably last night, but this is old news. I'm also freezing in my office because my office mates insist on keeping the temp set to 71 all the time. I would think that with my additional weight and baby belly, I'd be warm and like the cold air, but I am still cold. Eh.

Tired has a whole new meaning today. So much tossing and turning, so many aches and pains. Plus lots of heartburn! So I'm rocking chucks, a denim skirt and tee shirt because I give 0 fucks this morning.

Sounds like a cute outfit! Sorry you feel bad, but I bet you look awesome!

DH does not get why I'm more eager to cook than let him do it.  He NEVER thinks of ways to reduce the dishes/mess.  Drives me nuts.

I know !! And I also clean them and put them away as soon as I am done using that particular dish. Way less mess that way. He just throws them on the counter next to the sink or leaves them on the stove. Can't even put them in the actual sink!! Ugh!

[ladymouse]

I think I pulled a muscle from coughing so hard. On top of throwing up half the time I cough. But I'm on the upswing, at least?

I'm not in a rush for my wee girl to come out, but I am SO looking forward to not being pregnant.

[tjanca22]

Sorry if this is long. Last night sucked. DH has had a cold for about a week, so he snores ALL THE FREAKING TIME. After tossing and turning for about 2 hours, I finally found a comfortable position and he starts snoring really loudly. At this point it's 2:30am, so I give it 10 mins and decide to go downstairs and sleep on the couch.
I slipped and fell on the last 4 steps of the stairs. Thankfully, I landed on my butt and kind of sled down the last of the steps and never came close to landing on my sides or bump. Freaked myself out and immediately started to cry because I was worried about the baby. Went back upstairs and woke up DH. He immediately went into EMT mode and said he needed to check my bp and even listened for the baby on his stethoscope and baby was kicking like normal (and has continued to all day - thank God).
Didn't fall asleep for about 3 hours. I now have a large rug burn on my lower back from the carpet on the stairs, a very bruised butt, and only got about 3ish hours of sleep. Today can be over now

[bendherova]

Oh, and another random. I JUST started working on our income tax returns. Just under 59h to go!

[ThePalindromicOne]

I know I've only really been bitching about my carpal tunnel lately, but holy fuck. I stayed home sick today because my hands were going numb, tingling, and painful when I got out of bed (after bring up all night with the same symptoms anyways) and couldn't find a way to effectively get ready for work! And they didn't show signs of improving.

I've tried braces, icing, massage, all the YouTube videos you can find for stretches and self-acupressure. Unfortunately OB doesn't approve of any anti-inflammatory medication past 30 weeks =( She's referred me to a hand specialist - I'll probably have to do either physical therapy or acupuncture, which I wouldn't mind - except I'm not sure either of those will work fast enough, I'd rather just get a steroid injection in the wrist and move on.

tl;dr: Carpal Tunnel is a bitch, I'm miserable
