Pretty Preggos Aug 9-15

Moring!
Dawn-you look great!!! Its so cool to see pics of our preggo's! Your little bump is so cute! I need to take a 31 week pic today. What Luna Bars do you like? I used to eat them all the time but kinda got tired of them. I am liking the Odawalla Bars now.

I sound like a broken record talking about my lack of sleep...but last night sucked. Started off with heartburn, ended up with butt pain at 2. For the life of me I could not sleep. Why I didnt just get up and take Tylenol is beyone me! I will take it before bed tonight! 9 more weeks..I can do it!

I doubt I workout again today unless I get a burst of energy after lunch. We are gonna run a few errands this morning before it gets too hot.

Dawn, your belly is cute!! LOL...it looks about my size. :eek:

I had the firemen put my first carseats in. They will also recommend a good carseat for your vehicle.

I'm going to get the Graco snugride.......it's been recommended independently by several of my mommy-friends....
 
Susan, have you ever tried Benadryl to make you doppy for sleep? LOL I"m sorry,....I always sound like a pill pusher. :eek: I guess I can't help it. As you know, I use Ambien when I'm pregnant to sleep. My hormones make it impossible to sleep, even before I get big! I wake up really sore,...but I do normally sleep well.....
 
Melanie-yes, I have tried benedryl..it wires me..makes my skin crawl and when I do sleep it gives me weird dreams! And, please suggest anything you think would hlep me..PUSH AWAY! If I had taken a tylenol I could of slept..it was the hip pain that was keeping me up.
 
Well, I finally got my act together and called about my $650 "miscarriage bill". I just don't feel right paying for this bill when it was grossly misdiagnosed. I've been staring at it now for months,....getting ready to pay it today....

*sigh* the billing lady was upset when I explained to her what happened. She promptly made a dispuit claim & is submitting it to the president of billing. She said I should "no have to worry about this bill".

Pretty productive day, eh? The money will help pay for some girlie clothes & cribs. :D :D
 
Melanie-glad you don't have to worry about the $$$..that sure will help out!

Been dragging today. Went to the post office and need to go get a couple things from teh grocery store today. DH is "dying for something fried".....sooooo he bribed me into making him fried chicken..which I do maybe 2 times a year. I never fry anything unless he begs me! I told him he should thank me for taking care of him! He appreciates it but still wants his fried fix occasionally. I think to top it off I will make Jen's cake!
 
Susan, I have never fried chicken in my entire life. LOL I bet it is good. :D

Dragging your feet? The baby must need to rest. Is it hot there? We're having a heat wave. I wanted to take the kids to the county beach...but our van is in the shop and it has our park sticker on the windshield. I cannot justify buying another park pass just for the day when we have a sticker on our other car.

I blew up a mini-baby pool for the kids. I shiver when I think of how cold the hose water will be in the pool. LOL I wonder if the boys will even go in it today? LOL

Where are all the mommies?

Dawn, nice ticker. Where'd you get it?
 
Melanie-its always hot here lol. Actually we are a having a cool spell..high is only 92 today. I will feel sooo good on the first nice cool fall day!

Re the ticker..go to Cathenation...then click on cathe fun..its there.
 
Hi everybody,

No much going on lately, I have been eating more salads in an attempt to control my weight gain. BTW, Allison and Dawn, good job on keeping your weight gain under control this month. I am getting full fast, it seems like I'm not eating as much lately.

Melanie and Dawn, you two look amazing! Dawn, I think my belly might be as big as yours now. I need to post pics

I don't excatly what it is but I was hoping to get some answers, I have been having like a sharp pain around my belly like if my baby was pulling the cord from the inside. Weird but is pretty uncomfortable. Has anyone experienced that?
What's really killing me daily is the backache. Any suggestions?

Well ladies, back to work
 
Hi all, I will email more in a bit. In a nutshell, I took susan's house drama over! We got the job and need to find somewhere to live ASAP, and pray that the offer on our house is good. We have been holding our breath for weeks, and now I am kind of sad. My son had his best friend over today adn watching them together and give each other hugs, makes it hard for me. Anyhow, have to get a workout in, before the greasy tow truck guy gets here to pick up my husband's car again...
Will get to all the personals later, you all sound how I feel! I will also get a belly shot soon. Ugh!
 
Christine-huggss! Sorry the drama got passed to you...but I sure hope your house sells!!

Melanie-is there anything I can take for heartburn other than Tums which doesnt really help when its bad. I have read that anything with magnesium or calcium is ok..but no aluminum. Any advice my pill pusher??
 
Hey everyone! Been in training for the last two days so I don't have access to a computer until night. I'm having some bad back and leg pain from sitting in the uncomfortable chairs all day. I tried to get up and walk around often but I think it was cause I had an hour drive there and back too.

Melanie- You look great!

Priscilla- Doubt your belly is bigger than mine! We should both post some pics this weekend!

Christine- I'm sorry about all the house drama. I hope it settles down for you quickly.

Hi to everyone else! I'm back to work tomorrow so I will catch up more later!
 
Jen, hope the training is over. I couldn't imagine being stuck in an uncomfortable chair for an extended period of time. Even a normally comfy chair is no longer comfy to me. Hopefully you at least have an empty seat next to you, so you can prop your feet up for a bit.

Christine, oh, wow! This a huge development. Where will you be moving? So many cities were mentioned by DH's company, that I don't remember which one will be your new hometown.
 
Morning!
Im doing the happy dance..I slept some last night! I took 2 tylenol and just 1 teaspoon of benedryl (Melanie I thought I would try it). I did wake up like 4 or 5 times, but between all that I actually slept! I feel like doing a good workout this morning!

Jen-oh I feel for ya..sitting like that would suck!

bbl
 
Good morning everyone! Well I did a yoga last night before bed and took Tylenol and feel about 65% better. I am hoping to do a workout tonight and then try the prenatal yoga that Christine sent me (Thanks girl!) to see if that helps with my leg and back pain.

Don't you feel so rested Susan when you actually get some sleep? Even though its not the same quality sleep I got before pregnancy I can tell a HUGE difference.

Allison- Some of the classes I had an empty seat but it still didn't really help. My legs and butt went numb cause the cushions were terrible. I'm back at work so at least I get up and down alot.

Waves to all the other preggos! BBL!
 
Good morning ladies,

How is everyone this morning? I am doing ok, got some good sleep last night so I am hoping for a good workout today.

Since last week it seems I am feeling a lot better, well last week of course I had to had a cold, but this week is good, so far I already got 4 workouts in, that's more than I have done in the last 5 weeks :p. I will do 4 DS LIS today, please keep your fingers crossed .

Heidi got the cold after me with 5 days of fever but now the only thing she got left is a cough, so everything is getting better.

I am 15 weeks now and on Monday (the day I am was exactly 15 weeks) my belly started to pop out , yeah, I am excited you finally can see something!!!

Looks like everyone is not doing too bad and I can't believe how close some of your are getting.

I had a Dr.'s appointment yesterday and everything is well, it was exciting to hear the heartbeat again. At my next appointment we will do the sonogram and find out the sex, yeah!

Ok ladies, gotta order some Birthday presents for DH, his Birthday is next Wednesday!

I hope that you all have a good day and I'll try to be back later!

Kristine :)
 
Jen-yes just the 5 or so hours I got feel great!!! I remember the first time Haley slept like 6 hours straight as a baby..I felt like I had won the lottery!! Sleep is a wonderful thing!

Hi Kristine-^5 on the workouts! Glad you are feeling better!

I did MM and am now eating some Cheerios. Not much planned today. Hanging out with Haley..maybe go shoe shopping.
 
Cathe is coming to Florida! She will be 45 minutes from my house! But I can't afford to go. :( I hope she comes back again next year.
 
HI
Jen-bummer you cant go..but I know the "can't afford" feeling all too well right now!

Haley and I went to the mall and walked around..SLOWLY. Then I fell asleep on the couch for about 30 and was g-r-u-m-p-y when I woke up! Feeling better now. I pick up Hlaey from cheer at 6 and then we're making homemade pizza.

Dh was happy with his fried chicken last night..I even made gravy too!! I had veggie chili..fried food just grosses me out.

Kara is a mover and a groover! Maybe its just been too long, but I don't remember Haley moving this much.

Tomorrow we go see our new nephew Luke..he was born on Tuesday.

That is all my excitment!
