It is day two of finals. I am working some long boring days...so DD waking up and screaming right when I was trying to go to bed at 9:45 was super helpful. I still have no idea what was wrong with her. But I do know that my preference would be to curl up under my coat in my office and take a nap...instead I am watching students take a test.
We had a lovely weekend! My mom brought us all dinner and i stuffed my face with pot roast and mashed potatoes. And my friend at work just delivered me two boxes of Candy Cane Joe Joes.
But more importantly, the results of my Verifi test came back normal!!! I am still waiting for a call back from the genetic counselor to find the sex of the baby. I am so excited!
UPDATE!!!!! Turns out we are Team PINK!!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!

Apparently if I don't have Macdonald hotcakes and sausage my day turns to shit, if I do have this horribly unhealthy breakfast my day ends up being great. Wtf?!
Flying to FL for xmas Sunday and just want this week to fly by!

There was definitely a week for me that McDonalds hotcakes were all that settled my stomach and their sausage was the only "protein" I could handle. I totally feel you!

Ahh! Congratulations on your *healthy* baby GIRL!!! Here's to a happy and healthy rest of your pregnancy!
Sooo has anyone else experienced the phenomenon where your constant nausea turns into constant, all day, insatiable hunger? Yesterday and today I just cannot seem to stuff my face enough and it totally changed overnight from feeling nauseous.

This was my life weeks 10-11. Enjoy it while you can!

housecarder, Ewww... Creepy. I know I am weird but if he continues to harass you I would start sending him non stop pictures of unicorns (or unicorn poop) or useless stupid facts about the platypus until he thinks I am crazy and never talks to me again. But that's just me... And I understand I am a little weird.
The only thing I am able to eat right now is crepes filled with fresh fruit. I went through the exact same thing with DS so logically I am thinking this has to be a boy too.
housecarder, Well, that makes me feel like I should probably go take a shower. How much more of a hint does a guy need to get it?
ginabini, I ONLY get nauseous if I don't eat constantly. So, I sort of feel your pain. Have you tried drinking a lot? That curbs some of it for me.
I had to block his number because I got very blunt with him and he still wouldn't stop and started in on the "What did I do wrong?"
This is why I maintain that people are just plain stupid. I once had an ex send a letter to my father's house about how much he missed me and how much of a mistake our breakup was. I had dated him the summer of my 17th birthday. My father got the letter when I was in my early 20's. Dude, you're lucky I remember your damn name.

I didn't even have his name in my phone so I had to ask who he was. He kept acting like we were the best thing ever and how it was a shame we weren't friends still. What he meant was that he was lonely but I don't care. I haven't talked to him in like 4 years. I've survived this long without our "one of a kind chemistry" I think I'll be fine without his friendship.
We had a wonderful weekend, followed by a great ultrasound yesterday. Baby looks healthy, and I finally have an official due date. I was feeling a lot of anxiety, so seeing the heart beat was a huge relief.
Next big milestone is meeting with the MFM in a few weeks for my first trimester screening.
The whining about grades has already started and I haven't even turned them in. No student, I don't really care that you "have no idea" why your blogs weren't posted to the class blog. It isn't rocket science to figure out whether your work shows up, and I'm not inclined to replace all of your zeros with grades on the day that grades are due.
My personal favorite is the "I haven't worried about my grades for the last 11 weeks, but know it's the last week of the trimester and I care SOOOOO much! Am I missing anything? Is there extra credit?" It takes all my will power not to laugh in their faces. I'm a master of the I'm-not-amused face.

haha awesome! That's exactly where I am, too. OM NOM NOM!

Drinking a lot of fluids definitely helps with the nausea... not so much with the "going to eat my foot" hunger. At least I can stomach some healthy snacks again this week so its not all mac and cheese

I've been craving this strawberry pretzel jello salad my BFF makes and today she is bringing me over a pan and helping me make dinner. I'm ridiculously excited.
I've only told 2 people I'm pregnant. We're adamant about not telling family and DD til 2nd tri.
One of the people I told is my friend/neighbor/daughter's after-school babysitter. She's been a huge support to me watching DD during my RE stuff. Well, she told her husband. I get that. Then he told their 5 y/o. WTAF. Who does that??? If that kid tells DD I will lose it. And of course, you can't tell a 5 y/o not to tell another kid something because that will only make it more likely cause he likes to be a little shit toward her. So all I can do is avoid them like the plague and hope he forgets. Luckily DH is picking her up from school the rest of this week and then it's Christmas break for 2 weeks, so I think it will probably be ok, but still. Ughhhhh.

I wasn't sure if was going to tell my BFF about the baby when we went out to dinner last night. I walked in and she said "What's up with your boobs? They're huge!" So I told her.

My husband's aunt makes a similar thing with raspberry jell-o and fresh berries and I countdown the days to Easter every year.

Pretzel salad is my fav! I had it at my wedding. My mom makes it with crushed pineapple on top but I prefer it with just the pretzels and whipped cream mixture, no fruit or jello or anything.

I'm so nervous about my first OB appt tomorrow (I think it's because I'm still nervous I graduated from RE). I guess having horrible ms should make me think all is ok with baby.

When we found out it was twins we planned on telling our parents and my BFF first then my siblings before spreading the word to distant relatives. H texted his mom and before I could even tell my family MIL had already texted all her siblings. I had to rush my news because I was worried that H's loudmouth uncle would post something on our Facebook wall. I hate when people spoil your news.

Good luck! You will do great. I feel like hell and my baby looked great! Haha. That's all that matters right?
And so creepy, housecarder. I'm glad you shut him down.
I had a job interview on Monday and was told I'd hear by the end of today at the latest. I'm going to wear out my phone checking my email all day! I just want to know either way because if I get the job, I have two days to pack up and move my classroom and prep for January.
