Pregnant Hotties July 19th

[Susank41]

Hi Ladies,
Hope you are all doing great. We have had a nice weekend! Nothing exciting to report.
Our dinner/putt putt was fun. My mahi mahi was wayyyyyyy over cooked so dh made me send it back. If this was the first time eating there I would never go back! It tasted that bad. Mini golf was fun expect for bending over the pick up my ball. After the 2nd hole dh took that job over for me.
I go to the dr tomorrow at 1 for a check up and glucose test.
I weighed 131.8 this morning...so Im up I think 13 pounds.
Kara is quite the mover. The other night dh got up from the couch and put the remote on my belly...Kara just about kicked it off. It was funny. Sleeping has not been easy lately. If its not my butt/hip its my shoulders. I do get a power nap usually and that helps soooo much.
Well, I guess that is all for now. We are about to watch a movie.

Hey Susan! I have no idea what Mahi Mahi is,.....but sorry it wasn't good.

DH is extremely irritating to me, despite packing wee-ones away and leaving for a couple of days. I'm not sure if it's all hormones,......or if he really is being as lazy as I'm seeing him right now. Pray for us? Thanks!

We had fun @ the waterpark & Sams Club; but I drove 14 hours in 2 days plus chased the kids. It was priceless, but I need a rest now. My mom spent two days in the hospital with migraines; had a spinal & CAT scan, everything is normal,.......but I miss her dearly (haven't seen her in over 3 years). I'm sure the stress of all that (and then my birthday) didn't help my irritation with DH. *sigh*

Anywho, one more day off before I hit the grindstone again! Have to look for some maternity support hose (eww.....support hose).

Not much here. Just sleeping badly and feeling bigger than ever. I went off the deep end on food this weekend. Hungry adn a piggy. Off to shower and read, but want to say hi to all.
Susan, sounds like you are the healthiest preggo in the world!
Mel- I wish I coudl send you a hug. I think it is hard to grow a human and work adn be supermom adn a wife, etc. I feel the same way sometimes. Put down the steam cleaner, get some yummy treats, crawl in bed and enjoy YOU. With twins you might need it sooner than later. My husband and I have the same issues. He makes me make a list of things he should do. It is stupid, but works. Such as: Please flush toilet. If our son has to poop or get dressed, do it. If you eat something, rinse off and put in dishwasher. When not accomplished, all offensive items are placed in teh passenger seat of his car. It is ridiculous but he gets the point. My poor husband married his mother, his fault!!!
Love and hugs to al the preggos. I need a fat belly sleep. No more cookies for me. I ate too many. And they were amazing. baby loves them. And root beer too...

Morning!
Melanie-hugggsss coming your way. Dh has been getting on my last nerve lately! It has amazed me all that you do, girl. I agree with Christine..you need some "me" time to relax and veg out. Oh..mahi mahi is fish..some sort of dolphin I think...but very good.

Christine-dont worry about those cookies girl! I Have gone off the deep end more times than I care to tell you about lately with food! Hope you slept better last night. I actually did, but woke up with a scratchy throat. I was hoping not to get Haley's crud but I think I found it..grrrr!

I had an ice cream cone last night even though I get the glucose test today. I havent been going crazy with sugar but decided its better to eat the way I usually do to get a true result on the test. If I ate great, passed the test then went back to eating not so great that wouldnt be good either. My b/s hasnt ever been high when I have checked it so Im hoping Im good.

Workouts have been ok last few days. MM, KM low impact, LIS, ME, and today will be cardio of some kind.

Hi to everyone! bbl to report on my dr's appt.

Hey everyone! I think we should go on strike at home and lay in bed and eat, eat eat! How does that sound? Put the men to work! My DH hasn't been bad but I thought I would join in!

Not a whole lot to report. Just getting bigger and having some awful growing pains in my back and sides at night. I'm usually good all day but if I sit too long my poor back and sides are just cramping/tight. I try to stretch but I am just so tired. I feel like I have lost my second trimester energy already at 24 weeks. But James is moving around so much! It's fun!

Susan- I know what you mean about the kicking. I had my cell phone on my stomach one night he was really active and it almost fell off. I can tell this will be a game I play with him now to keep me entertained! Hee hee....

Melanie- I'm sorry to hear about your mom and that you weren't able to see her. Bummer.... Sounds like you guys are close.

Christine- I LOVE your list for your DH! I always tell DH that he will find crumbs, dirty dishes, etc on his pillow. Still haven't had to do it yet but the threat is always there!

Waves to everyone else! Hope everyone has a great Monday!

[melanalyus]

My mom is my best friend! I'm glad she's feeling better, just sad I didn't see her.

Vacation? By myself? LOL That won't happen for another 15 years or so. LOL Thanks for all the warm wishes & hugs. I feel overworked & under appreciatied, .....but who doesn't? I want more help/work from DH,...but I don't want him to resent me or feel nagged. Urgh!

Not much to report here. last friday we went to Babies R us to see few cribs and baby's stuff. Here is my dilemma, I currently live in a 2/2 apartment but one of the bedrooms is packed with workout machines and all kind of equipments, just the thought of moving all that gives me a headache!!. I talked to the leasing office people and they said that there are no 3/2 apartments available now and that they may not have any until Nov, so they put me on a waiting list... (2 people before me) So... I don't want to buy anything just yet until I know for sure. It's a quite complex, 3 miles from work and I'm thinking that I usually have 2 hr lunch so I can swing by and feed my little one. I really hope we can get a bigger apartment here, otherwise I may have to buy just a small crib for few months until I can fix a bedroom for him/her. Good thing I have 4 more months to look around..

Dawn, how was the baby shower?

Jen, it's how you mentioned that because my mom also thinks it's a girl, my dad thinks it's a boy though, we'll see

Susan, your are all belly and a CUTE one! I am glad you guys had fun

Melanie, just few weeks to find out the babies' gender. I'm glad your mom is feeling better, mine is like a little girl, I can't have anything sweet around here b/c she has no will power when it comes to sweets

Wendy, how funny! I bet your DD I don't know where you live but believe sometimes I feel the urge to do the same thing here in TX

Christine, I'm sorry for all the recent drama in your life. I am also finding out my baby's sex this week. i'll keep everyone posted

Have a great day everyone!

I managed to get through low max..it wasnt easy though!

Jen-Im up for your strike!! THe eating part sounds like so much fun! My dh hasnt been bad either. Just simple things have been getting on my nerves..so Im assuming its my hormones. We have been together for 21 years, married 16 so we know each other well and what the other needs. He may not always do something I think needs to be done at that moment but is always willing to help if I ask him. Men just think differently than we do...and that is what is frustrating.

Hi pricialla you snuck in on me! Im meant to tell you Im glad your vitamins are treating you better these days! I hope your apartment becomes available!

[Sweetpea1]

Priscilla- I hope you are able to get a three bedroom. I think a small crib sounds like a good idea until you would know for sure. I'm such a planner that it would drive me nuts not to know.

Susan- My DH is pretty good at helping too. Especially now while I am pregnant. But I have also tried to be good about communicating my wants/needs from during pregnancy and not be too whiny and demanding. He actually said the other day that I have been pretty good and he can't complain. I am so proud of you for continuing to work out!
