Good morning you beautiful ladies. I think somethings contagious here, b/c I had trouble sleeping last night....which lead my to get up at 445 and w/o. I did Cardio Coach 8--a little over 5 miles and a long stretch. Now I"m showered and getting a jump start on my day! I work 3 short hours, then I'm home for some family time. HOpe the weather is nice!!!

Kate, pie & ice cream are just not my thing....but watch out if you have chocolate chip cookies!!! I did pretty good yesterday even though I ate out TWICE. Once was Mexican for lunch and other was date with DH (steak & shrimp w/salad & veggies---no potato or bread). I've really been lacking milk in my diet since my "big" event. It sounds like you were busy with the kids at school, doesn't that feel great?!

Mikkia, you sound so busy as you unselfishly help others. You truely are a hero in my eyes, it must take lots of energy. Congrats on the sex determination. Boys are so fun!

Welcome Kristine. I'm cautiously TTC after a late-miscarriage in July. I"m hoping things move along quickly for you. :)

Jessica, it's amazing how helpless us women can be, eh? That IS why we get married, right? So they can take care of us? I"m sorry that happened. How frustrating. How are you platelets doing?

Stephanie, you sound "ripe"!!!!!

Jen, congrats on your little girl! That's great you don't have to keep it from your DH...I mean....how could you?!?!?

Trish, that bp is low. :( This might make you feel better....my last boy didn't have a name until 30 minutes before discharge (and we were there 3 days). I was waiting for the "okay" from DH. I was feverishly looking up "J" names in the hospital lobby, writing them down, then asking DH if he liked this name or that name. I was really getting irritated, trying to be as patient as I could be....men!!!

Well I"m off to start coffee & laundry! Check back later!
 
melanie - I love some choc chip cookie dough but not the cooked ones much. The other day I craved the store bought kind that I like to dip in milk though. mm.

Yep the crazy things happen whenever Dh is gone. I think guys should show wives the simple things like that "how to fix ____" for when they are gone. I don't know how to change a tire either.
As far as platelets I've yet to see the dr! My first appt is the 29th and its with a nurse. I don't know if they will start checking that yet or not. It usually is fine at the beginning but drops the farther along I get.
 
Hello Melanie & Calvillo, Hope you gals are having a good day.
Melanie, Enjoy your family time today.

Had a pedicure and my eyebrows waxed this morning. It would've been more fun to go with a friend or sis but it was still nice to get away. We're feeling really lazy here today - gettting nothing done....
 
Jessica, my platelets are low/normal not pg (around 100,000)---but decrease significantly when pg (around 50,000). it'd be a good idea to have blood drawn at your first visit...as a baseline if anything else.
 
I'm sure it'll be brought up. They'll want my whole medical history esp past pregnancy issues. I wouldn't be surprized if they did the blood test then too. I'll update after that appt.
 
Melanie, I'm sure 5 hrs of sleep is NOT enough! Hope you got a nap today!

Calvillo, I'm sure you're getting anxious for your appt!

--------
My day ended up being pretty productive and I just finsihed SS UB only.
Quiet day here...hope everyone is fairing well.
 
yeah I can't wait! lol.. I hope I get to hear a heartbeat. I almost think I "may" be farther along than I think. I really do feel I have a little belly and I can't suck it all the way in. When I workout I can feel my belly (inside) when I do a knee up or something. I think I shouldn't yet?? either that or I'm just showing early being #3?
Well I finally feel a little better. I hope it sticks! I just have a bit of a cold but its mostly just in my nose now so I did do a little turbo jam to get me back into working out. I usually do one of those when I've been out for a while.
 
I always get a good sweat going with Turbo Jams...and they are, by far, the most fun workouts I have. I did them when I was pg, as a 2nd w/o of the day post-partem, and when I"m short on time.

Jessica, when is your estimated due date? Everyone's different & every pg is different. With my first three boys I didn't need maternity clothes until 20 weeks, with my last pg I was in them almost from the get-go. Some women are excited about showing, I wanted to be thin as long as I could...thus waiting until 20 weeks. I can't wait to hear how your appt goes!! How exciting!!!
 
hi all
hope you all had a great saturday! This weekend is flying by.
last ntie at babies r us we got two cute girl outfits for $7 off the clearance rack. My husband picked them out and i couldnt resist.

I also bought a different bedding, much more girly. Its the jungle luv one and i got the lamp, mobile and twostuffed animals. its adorable. Of course, i may change my mind next week lol

my dh was teasing me about wanting a new crib so i made him and my dad put the free one together. i found out its a ragazzi crib, so i did my research and they are high end so i've decided to keep it. its very sturdy and once we wiped it down its almost as good as new . the few marks are hardly noticeable. i figure they said it was $700 , which is about right. I would never spend that much on a crib, but since i got it for $0 and it looks nice, its sturdy..i figure what the hey. Now i will sell the other one for cheap i hope!

So lots of baby stuff going on this weekend!

I did not workout yesterday, i was too busy with shopping and my appointment.

Today i did Tracey's Step Sweatfest, followed by muscle endurance. Tomorrow is church, cookign football snakcs for the hubby, and making a roast chiken dinner with all the fixins and laundry, but im sure i can squeeze a workout in while dh is watching football :)

i hope you ladies all have a great day, sorry for the lack of personals, i do better during the week with those

KATE POST YOUR PICTURES!!! HAHA :)
