Pregnant or Trying to Be! THURSDAY

I have my massage today!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited! I am definetly sore from Muscle Endurance yesterday so this is going to feel GREAT!!!:D

Today is supposed to be my rest day but I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up doing some light cardio or some CS and make it an active rest day.

JenM, I'm glad the dogs are okay. What a relief!

Melanie, I'm glad the healing process is working itself out. You are a strong woman to face that y'day. I'm quite sure I would've headed for the bathroom to sulk/cry.

Stephanie, We need to hear from you!!!!! Did you have that sweet boy yet?!?!?!
 
Good morning everyone! Here bright and early as usual...its still dark out. Man, is that rough..dont think i'll ever get used to that.

Kate - enjoy your massage! LOL on your cardio on an active rest day. I did two 4DS workouts yesterday including the weights (bi/tri, shoulder/core/calves) with both cardios. Felt good. I dont even get DOMS altho i feel i lift as heavy as i can safely. I dont even have muscle definition anymore. Not that i was ripped and chiseled before. SHeesh...with all the hours I spend working out, one would think i'd look like...Cathe! By now HA HA HA. SIgh...
Dunno what workout is on tab for tonite. i'll decide when i get home, probably the chest/back from 4ds and some cardio.

The dogs seem fine and i hope it stays that way. the pedigree bag didnt have the three letter code of the contaminatead food, yet the name and poundage was on the list so i'm not going to use it, just to be safe.

For everyone who was talking about a Jenny Lind crib, which did you use? I know there's one by Delta and also a slight more expensive one that got a little better reviews (but its still cheap). Are they sturdy? In the store they feel a little rickety but maybe it wasnt put together fully....I dont know what to do about these crib.s I'm not excited about either. I'd like to know the brand on the free one to research it (paranoid over here). I'vestill got time i guess. im probably driving everyone nuts about a darn crib :)

I hope everyone has a great morning!
 
Jen, I prefer sunny AMs too - maeks it easier to wake up! No worries on the loss of definitiion - we all feel your pain! Just think of how motivated you'll be pp to get back into shape!

Gina did SO GREAT today getting on the bus! 3 out of 4 days this week have been pretty good!:D
 
Hey chickos,
Just popping in to say hey!
Kate so glad Gina did well..yayyyy!!!! Enjoy your massage. I am jealous!
Jen-you workout so hard now that you won't have a bit of prob getting everything back pp. Keep up the great work! So glad your pup isnt sick. I'll have to post you a pic of my furry baby, Bubbles!
Melanie-so glad seeing the new baby went well. You are doing great! Maybe we'll both concieve this month!! I get effects of SAD also. I am loving our weather now though. SUnny and a high of 75...doesnt get better in my book!
Ok..Mikkia and Steph..we need an update!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jen1-good to hear from you!
Lisa-Hi...good to see you too!

Today is just class and dd has dance.
 
Yes susan please post pics of your fur baby! I loooooooooooooove dogs and always want more. but i cant really afford the two i have. i just want to save them all. I'm reall yin the wrong profession. I would love working with dogs in some way

Its so funny, i sent a text to my DH a few minutes ago telling him i was looking at cribs and please dont kill me. He wrote back and said " I told you Dad just yesterday that you have 2 cribs now but i bet she will still look for more --- just like dogs!!" Ha, i thought that was funny. He's so right.

Im thinking of going back to the angelina storkcraft or the davinci jenny lind (thats the more expensive one). They have a jenny lind in powder pink that is just ADORABLE. I wish i knew if i was having a girl or not :( Part of me is hoping that the baby flases us on the US tomorrow but if we dont see boy parts that wont mean its a girl. He could just be shy.
I was 18 weeks - can they find the sex yet? I thought they said between 18-20 but maybe im thinking thats movement.

Kate - glad you didnt have problems with your little one getting on the bus :) maybe she is settling in to the new routine! Enjoy that massage of yours!
 
Susan, Have fun at class!;) I take it AF is being a little kinder today?

JenM, That's a funny story about Dh's comments about the dogs/cribs! At 18 wks. I wouldn't trust an u/s for determining gender. I was always told 20 weeks. If its a girl there will be three distinct lines that are her labia. And you'll be feeling that baby move in no time! It kind of feels like gas bubbles at first. You wearin' maternity yet?????!!! And I'm trying SO HARD to make some time to post the pics - where do the hours go???
 
Hi girls!

Just a quick hello:) I have been so busy these last few days. All I want to do is clean the house:confused: So every free minute I have I am scrubbing something.

Well I'm hoping Stephanie had her little boy!

JenM- I would definitely get a crib you like. You will regret it if you don't.

Kate- I want a massage too!

Susan-have fun in class! It sounds like you really enjoy it

I just finished the elliptical now I need to shower. I have to get the oil changed in the car today and clean some more:)

Candra
 
I havent felt movement yet. i had one bubble two days ago but i ate a slad and i think it made me gassy. i havent felt anything yet but hope to soon!

ok i will look for the three lines - are the boy ones obvious?? I assume they are, but ive never seen ultrasounds before or paid much attention until i got preggers.
maybe i can send u my ultrasound and u cant tell me lol

Not wearing maternity yet - but i have the pants unbottoned today. i need to start shopping for dressy ones so i can be comfy at work.

Candra thanks for the advice on the crib. i think i'll sell both i have for cheap, but i dont have luck selling. i jus twant to make back the money i spent on this one..and get one i like. i just hate shopping online with no actual model to look at...

Someone mentioned they have a Jenny Lind stlye - but i forget who> can you give me your thoughts on it - like sturdy, rickety, etc? Thanks!

YEs kate post those pics. im dying to see your nursery it sounds adorable!

my mom just emailed and said she was at babies r us and saw a mom and daugther shopping and felt upset because she is missing out on my pregnancy and wathcing me grow and shopping due to me in fl and her in ct :( I felt the same way when i bwas at BRUS the other nite. Sigh...
 
Queen Nester Candra, Go girl go!!! :p:D:D I feel the same way. I am constantly keeping things picked up/organized and feel so out of sorts if its not all picked up. I know you understand!;)

JenM, Sorry about your feeling towards your mom. I'm sure I'd feel the same way. Send her lots of pics!:)
 
JenM here is a quick pic of Bubbles. As you can see it was taken around Christmas. I'll post a more recent cuter one when I get a chance. I would love to see your babies too :D

JenM-your pups are adoralbe!!!! THanks for sharing! Princess ane Meatball look like great pets!! Bubbles is a toy poodle. She is the sweetest thing! A total lap dog. We had 2schnauzers for nearly 20 years, Winston and Missy. Winston had epilepsy and was just having seizuers all the time even with meds...and he was just so old and not himself. He was 18. Missy died soon after at the same age. They were our babies for a long time. We went without a dog for about 5 years and got Bubbles 2 years ago.
We wanted either a poodle or shithzu.
Class was good. We did some blood typing today..fun. And stared a chapter on the heart.
Kate how was your massage?
 
sorry I've missed out the last few days. I'm having a HORRIBLE time with M/S the last few days and I've had a constant headache! :( I have to warm up the kids dinner and just the thought of the smell is making me ill. ugh...
 
The massage was WONDERFUL, thanks for asking Susan. I'm all soft & supple!:D

I'm wondering about Stephanie & MIkkia.............

Calvillo, So sorry you're feeling so rotten. It will be over soon!! (even tho it doesn't feel like it!

Apple pie in the oven........the massage really put me in a good mood I guess!
 
Thanks for the compliments on my kids susan :) I love them a lot.
Princess is a total lap dog too, definately mommy's girl. She always needs to be wherever i am. she cries if she cant see me, its cute but i hate leaving her alone. too bad i cant take her to work with me! my mom gets to take her yorkie to her job everyday!

kate mmmmm can i have some apple pie?? That sounds good right about now. Have a slice for me please!! Glad you enjoyed the massage.

calvillo, sorry you arent feeling well. sending get better vibes your way!
 
oh my goodness, i took my dogs out and got eaten alive by mosquitos! Florida has the biggest skeeters i have EVER seen. I swear they are on steroids. The worst are the tiger mosquitos, you cant feel them bite until its too late - kinda like red ants!

Anyway im just now eating dinner (9pm). After work i did a body combat workout from les mills (love it!) and the rest of the 4ds weight work - chest/back, and legs/core. Im starvin...kate i'd like apple pie for dessert please!

i have another u/s tomorrow at 10am. I get to see my little bean. yay!
 
Hi ladies!
Just a quick (late) checkin... No I didn't have the baby. My computer went on the fritz this weekend, and it's been in the shop until today. I missed you guys!! Went to the doc today because I had decreased fetal movement, but everything is OK. Baby is doing well. I'm 2 cm dilated, 50 percent effaced, and he's moved WAY down, so it's any day now, really...

Will be back with personals in the a.m.!! Hope everyone has been OK this week!!
