good morning ladies.
as you can see from the title today is not so wonderful. I slept terribly last nite and have been in the bathroom a lot. I feel sick today for some reason. Just when i thought the bathroom time was winding down. I have a headahce and feel naseous and i'm at work. Its only 7am and i have to make it until 5 but im wondering how. I did not sleep well at all and I'm feeling it!

Not much else is going on, just hanging out at work. Today will definately be a rest day when I get home. I made a crock pot dinner tonite so at least i dont have to cook. But the thought of eating anything makes me feel sicker!

Hope everyone is doing better than I am today. I hope I shake this before the road trip!
 
Oh jEn! ())hugs))). Sorry you're not feeling well! Maybe have some white-bread type of food? The nausea is NO FUN. That alone would preven me from wanting to get pg again. I would go thru labor everyday before I would want the nausea back.

---------
Not much going on here today. Planning on staying at home and getting some things done. Need to do b'fast - bbl..........
 
thanks kate :) I dont even want to think about food at the moment tho! Funny, this weekend i was eating up a storm. Sigh...but i cant tell if its being pregnant or if im coming down with something. I tend to blame everything on the pregnancy now!

enjoy your day at home. Do you work or work from home or do u have today off? I am getting to know a lot of people on the checkin but i dont think i know what their professions are!
 
Jen, DH is a self-employed plumbing contractor. We mainly do new construction commerical/industrial and apartment work. I used to be VERy involved in teh business but I hired a secretary for him when we found out I was pg. I still do payroll and a few other things. I get about 10-15 hours a week which is more than enough. I'll scale back a little more in the next month when school starts. By the time Baby comes I'll hopefully be down to just payroll. Payroll doesn't sound like much but we have 23 employees and there's always something wierd to do - child/spousal support, loan repayments, government reports... drives me crazy soemtimes but I'm thankful we're so busy. So many plbg. companies around us have closed up. Dh does a great job!

Hope you get over the queasiness a little. Mine was worse in the 1st half of the day and if I let myself get hungry. So white bread 24/7 it was for me!
 
Oh! I almost forgot! DH and I get a date night tongiht!! One of my sisters is babysitting while we go out to eat and to childbirth class. I feel silly being pg with #3 and going to CB class again, but at the birth center they like you to come each pg. We get some alone time out of it so why not?!
 
Morning!
Jenm-I am so sorry abouthe nausea. I am with Kate, I would take childbirth anyday over the nausea. I had a really terrible time with it, but about 13 weeks it disappeared and my energy levels started coming back. You are almost there. I hope you survive today though.
Kate-Did you have a good weekend?
Susan-glad you had a good weekend, and sound like this week could leave you wornout!! In a good way;)
Anne-2WW is that 2 week wait? I can only imagine how long that feels. I am saying extra prayers for a sticky uterus!
Hi Candra,Jen, Trish, Stephanie,and Maggie (any action yet?)
I did do BM2, it was really tough. May not do that one in its entirety until after baby again. Today is KPC, much nicer.
It looks like a Tropical Storm will be making landfall somewhere around galveston tomorrow. We won't be on the dirty side(tornadoes),so we are expecting 2-5 inches of rain. I can't believe we are getting it 2 times in 3 weeks. Oh well,at least its not a hurricane. We have soccer camp this week from 5:30-8:30 every night. I am concerned as it has been over 100 and will be again today. Its too much for the kids, and me who has to sit out there!
Oh well have great day.
 
Mikkia, The weekend went by too fast! I didn't get much of what I wanted to get done. Today hopefully. It is HOT by you! Yuck! Glad you're out of harm's way with the hurricane though! Good job getting thru BM2! That is a toughie! Hope the kids have funtonihgt - lots of water for sure!
 
Its funny becuase I realyl havent felt crappy the whole time. I mean i would get naseous and eat anyway but today i just feel .. sick. Im on week 12 now so its weird. Maybe i have a bug or something. I almost went home sick but I think i'll stick it out. I need the hours.

Kate that is so great you can work at home. I remember reading about you hiring a secretary to help out. It just slipped my mind. I realy wish I could be a stay at home mom and housewife, but we could never afford it - not with three kids to pay with child support.

Wow bm2, that is a toughie, good job on completing it.

I read about the tropical storm this morning - the titel mentioned the Gulf and I was afraid it meant the Gulf Coast of Florida! I have yet to experience a hurricane down here and hope i dont have to. Especially for my hsubands sake - if i were on the road i'd be sleeping at work. Deputies dont get to be at their homes with their family and pets. They get to stay out in the storm and work their butts off. Im just hoping we dont get any hurricanes at all. It'd be just me and the doggies!

Good luck with soccer tonite - stay hydrated, it sounds hot and icky there
 
morning ladeis!
its is so strange dd not being here!! we miss her! I called her last night and she was having a blast, so that makes me feel good.
My arm is really hurting again and I think its from sitting in the car so long. Im gonna get on the TM and see if that helps.
bb to chat every my wo!
 
Susan, So are you enjoying some doll-free time? Glad Haley is having fun.

Anne, Good luck on teh 2WW. We're all rooting for you! Have fun with all of your upcoming plans!

Mikkia, Those Runzas sound great!

Maggie, Sounds like you all had a good weekend! LOL at being unkempt and the hot&heavy comment.! I'm getting tired of everyone telling me I look like I've "dropped" and ready to deliver!! I guess I just show lower than most. It's def. not stopping the "I can't breathe" feeling though! 10.5 weeks to go! I'm so excited for you that you're almost done! soon, baby!
 
Hi!
Kate-yes, doll free time is great! I'll be missing those dolls by Tuesday Im sure!
Here is Haley with her best bud Avery, and with new baby Abbey. Hope they arent too big..I forgot to resize them.
I had a good workout on the treadmill and my arm is better so far. Its just going to take time for all these nerves to regenerate I guess.
Night one of babymaking done. I am concerned that I might of missed ovulation. I have been known to O a little early. I had to miss Fri and Sat deposits..so we'll see. DH is in heaven this week.;)
Jen2 I hop you are feeling better! Do you think you might have a little bug or does is feel like pregnancy??
Hi Mikkia, Maggie, Anne(fingers crossed you are preg) Candra, Stephanie, Melanie, Kristin, Morris
Im off to shower and putter around the house doing stuff. I'll be back.

Hi Susan
Im not sure if its a bug or pregnancy. I blame everything on being pregnant! LOL
Your daughter is beautiful..how old is she? She looks very mature. I hope she is having a fun time and you are getting a nice break!
 
Aww thanks Jen. Haley is 8, and luckily still acts 8!! She is such a sweetie now, I can't see her being a typical teen, but ya never know!
I was never sick when pg, it must just be awful..hang it there.
 
Your welcome. Her face looks very mature. Cute baby too :) Im sure she will be fine as a teen. Maybe you will be lucky and have a saint - I certainly was. My parents were so lucky i was a good kid. In my line of work see you kids that are ... well, not so good, to put it nicely.

I havent been sick yet! Just naseous every now and then or having to go to the bathroom often. Today i just feel crappy..im afraid to eat but maybe that will pass soon :)

I posted in the forum about flying - im trying to make travel plans for a shower in october or maybe xmas time. in october ill be about 5 months and 7 in december. How late can u fly pregnant and do it safely? Anyone know :)
 
Good Morning Everyone!

Jen, sorry you aren't feeling well. During the first trimester I had good days and bad days (mostly bad days). It will all be over soon.

Kate, my dh is an electrical contractor (his name is also Mike). We also own our own business. After Wilson was born and I quit work I attempted to do the secretary work and I absolutely hated it. We now have a secretary that I love. She does everything!!!

Susan, glad you had a good weekend! My boys were gone this weekend and I was ready for them to come home! It's nice to have the break.

Mikkia, soccer camp sounds like no fun at all!!

Anne, good to hear from you. I am praying this is your month:)

Hi Jen, Lisa, Trish, Stephanie, Kristan and Maggie

The boys got home yesterday afternoon and they are so tan and their hair is almost white. They were so excited to see that I had put all their toys in their own rooms. So far no one has noticed all the missing toys;)

I think I might do a Jari Love workout today. I am not sure which one yet. I think after that we are just going to stay home today. I want to swim but Owen isn't supposed to have his chin fully submerged in water for another 3 days:(

Candra
 
Hi ladies! Hope everyone had a great weekend!
Jen--Sorry about the nausea. Mine came in the afternoons. I agree with Kate. Letting yourself get hungry makes it SO much worse. Carbs were such a great friend!!

Kate--Have fun on your date night!! Enjoy your day at home today!

Mikkia-- Maybe the rain will postpone/cancel the soccer practice. I know those are no fun when it's hot outside! DH signed both of our boys up for soccer this fall. Ugh. I love it when I'm not pregnant though.

Susan--Sorry your arm isn't feeling well. Maybe this week's aerobic activities will get those nerves back into shape. ;) I hope that this week is very "productive" for you guys!!!! :)

Melanie--If you're lurking, I hope that you're feeling better. You're never far from my thoughts!

Maggie--Where are you? I too am wondering if there's been any action!!!

Hi to Candra, Jen, Trish and anyone else I missed!!
-------
Well, we went to the county fair Saturday, and the kids loved it. And I didn't eat a thing! Yey me!! Though it wasn't a very clean eating weekend, it wasn't horrible. Yesterday it was just church and errands. Today we're going to work on laundry and play. Tomorrow I have a doc's appointment, and it's supposed to be the hottest day of the year. Dreading getting out in it. But I am eager to see how the baby is doing. My bladder has been really bothering me lately. If I sit for more than a few minutes, I have to pee when I get up. That means, after every car ride, after church service, after reading in bed. I go to the bathroom about 100 times a day it feels like. Could the baby have already dropped this early? I'll ask doc tomorrow.

Anyway, hope you all have a good day!! Stay cool!!
 
Susan, Cute pics!! Enjoy SexMax this week!!

Jen, Glad you're not doing barfmax! I was 28 weeks flying to/from RT.

Candra, Glad you have your boys back! Hope you get your WO in.

Stephanie, LOL on Susan's "productive" week! Glad the fair went well. Sorry for all the peeing!

-------
I'm getting a lot done today. The painter is coming tomorrow to prime the baby's room. Late rthis week the trim carpenter will come to add my chair rail - yay! Then the week after next painter will be back to finish the painting. Soooo glad its coming together. Ive been buying quite a bit of clothes and I need the storage.

see ya later!
 
I can't believe my good fortune! DDs are asleep ( I *willed* myself to stay awake!) so I did 4DS KB cardio (sumo-style, a la Stephanie!), now I'm about to do some Classical Stretch for Lower Body! Then I get to shower! Sis is coming over early to babysit so I can get some errands done sans kids! What an awesome day!
