Oh hello Tuesday

[titania]

How is everyone doing today?  

[titania]

Last night was a bad night... I woke up multiple times with major nausea waves Luckily this morning pita chips are my friends! Yesterday potatoes, today pita chips - my diet is amazing right now...

[athn64]

titania whatever stays down is a good diet imo.

I have a mom's group meeting this morning. We'll see how that goes. Other than that, my plan is to nap and be as lazy as DD will allow

Not the first I've been a part of the group for a year now.

My mom comes up once a week to hang with me and the girls, she's coming today. I may tell her about the pregnancy...all the jolly ranchers and seltzer water will probably give it away. I'm going to sneak off to deliver food to a friend who just had number three! So if he's not sleeping I'll get to hold a squishy:)

[cattuccino]

Im nauseous this morning and trying to work myself up to take DD to kindermusik this morning but the idea of dancing around and singing silly songs with a bunch of toddlers isn't helping the nausea.
Good news is that DD slept in this morning after our busy weekend, thank goodness.....I just hope I can still get a nap out of her

ah well hopefully it goes well today!

I was a little nauseous before breakfast this morning but made a huge smoothie that is keeping me comfy so far. I've got a major project I need to get done at work, so I'm trying to focus on that. Besides that - feeling good and trying not to pay attention to how bad my boobs hurt!

oh goodness dancing sounds so hard to me right now...

I have no clue-watching a lot of tv, reading a lot and trying to keep my son off his hurt leg. Ugh. I'm so thankful I'm not at work though. I was a SpEd teacher for 6 years and quit in June to stay home-don't know if I'd even be able to send him to daycare with a leg this injured!

I'm sorry he is still hurting!  Is he able to put any weight on it?

I'm on vacation at the beach so that's a major plus.

Last night I got about 2 hours of sleep at the beginning of the night and 2 hours in the morning when DS ran in to tell me it's wake up time. But I'm on vacation so I can deal.

I have a job interview waiting for me when we get home, I'm nervous and excited about it but mainly worried about starting a new job 3 months pregnant and having a lot less flexibility vs my current job. I've already handed in my notice though, it's been a long time coming, my boss is toxic.

This all happened before I got pregnant ( I have a very long leave notice in my contract), despite being a very stressful job which was impacting my health and my family I wouldn't have left (quite yet) if I knew I would get pregnant so soon (with IF issues I finally had to tell myself I couldn't wait around any longer to base my career decisions on that possibility).

[mymilkshake]

Oh heeeyy. Just procrastinating here at work while I should be typing my notes. I may be meeting my mom for lunch today when I get out of here! I've been wanting to go to this Mexican place the next town over where you can get any burrito served over greens. I got it once and it was delicious and I've been dying to go back. I clearly don't have any nausea yet talking about burritos, sorry to those that do. I do wish I had a few more symptoms though to ease my crazy mind!

[titania]

csat, the beach sounds wonderful! Good luck at the interview! Your work situation sounds awful and if it was impacting your health then it is probably good you got out of it - even if the timing is not great. I was in one of those jobs for way too long, so I can relate.

mymilkshake, enjoy your lunch with your mom!

[kittenzilla]

titania, I'm sorry you're having nausea, hang in there! Do the preggie pops work for you? Those were my saving grace with DS.

athn64, that's awesome that you have a mom's group! I've looked for one in my area, but they all seem so well established that I'm kind of afraid to go.

cattuccino, good luck at kindermusik!

txmommy14, what did they end up doing for DS's leg? I'm sorry if I missed it in another thread.

csat, good luck at the job interview, and congrats on getting out of a bad situation. It's so hard to make the decision to leave, but getting away from a bad boss will improve your quality of life so much.

I'm back at work after a 6-day "vacation" due to DS getting hand foot and mouth. He had a rough night last night (teething) and the only way he'd sleep was in my bed, on my head. It's been an interesting morning.

[titania]

kittenzilla, I just ordered some and some ginger chews, so hopefully something will help! Sorry he had a rough night teething! Obviously sleeping on your head was the only remedy

[peanutbutterandkitty]

This is my last week at work, so I'm pretty slow. I haven't had nausea yet, but it's still super early or maybe I'll be a 1st tri unicorn and dodge it. Let's hope for that.

So my 20mo DD is super into coloring. And I noticed today that she likes to keep her crayons in the cup, point side up. If you have other children, are they surprisingly particular about anything?

Nope, none at all ;(

Oh I'm so sorry!  I hope he heals soon! 

[frecklesnbrains]

@txmommy sorry about your DS Hope he heals quickly!

I'm feeling crummy this morning for the first time. I had difficulty getting out of bed. My blood pressure is low and I was lightheaded, so I downed a bunch of water and salty foods at breakfast. That helped but still feeling weak and fatigued. I have such a busy, stressful week lined up at work so this is not going to help!

Who wants to educate me about preggie pops and ginger chews (like do they actually work and where do I get them)?

I got mine from amazon... recommended by this lovely article that arrived in my inbox over the weekend www.pregnantchicken.com/pregnant-chicken-blog/2010/9/29/15-morning-sickness-remedies.html

txmommy14, I'm sorry your son isn't feeling well. I hope he gets better soon!


I am just exhausted today, and in real bitch mode for no reason... sorry co-workers...

Thanks titania! I may just get some sour candies at the store today. Not really nauseous so much as simultaneously starving hungry with no appetite. But I think I know what's coming because it seems a bit worse each day...

Target also carries them, at my store they are right across from the HPTs.

[txmommy14]

With my DS, I sucked on peppermints and those preggie pops a lot. I'm feeling nauseous, but I want to wait until after my appointment on Thursday to buy anything. Crazy that there are all of these articles about Zofran out now?! I don't think it was controversial to take Zofran when I was pregnant with my DS, but maybe I just missed it? I wonder if doctors still suggest it.

[shan]

Booked my first us for Monday the 19th! I'm so nervous I could puke. Or maybe that's just morning sickness? Who knows.

[csat]

Thanks guys, no one else but DH knows I'm pregnant yet (and many don't know the full extent of my job situation) so it's nice to be able voice all of my anxieties with you lovely ladies.

Kittenzilla hope your DS feels better soon, sick kid 'vacations' are so draining.

[manybellsdown]

Just took my first afternoon nap. I took the day off work and was traveling back home with DD this morning, which may have contributed. But I sat down and could not keep my eyes open!

[athn64]

Mom group was nice. Then came home for lunch and nap. DD decided she wanted to end her nap before I was ready to end mine. So now I am laying on the couch watching her play
