TTC/Preggos WEEKEND!! 6-27
- Thread starter chefkate
- Start date
No plans except to take the kids to see wall-e(it was sold out yesterday). Supposed to be HOT again. I am going to try and do cardio with weights here in a little while.
On another note, I have officially lost 6 lbs so far in this pregnancy. This is not a good thing, with the other 2 I was up at least 7 lbs at this point. I have been really sick I guess. I think I am beginning to freak myself out. My sister that had preeclampsia gained about 12lbs in her pregnancy no matter what she ate. I guess that is always creeping into the back of my mind. I am neurotic.
Hope you have a relaxing day Kate with your family and have a great day to all of those to follow.

Mikkia, hugs on the weight loss & all the vomiting. Urgh. Maybe you can talk your DH into letting you take Reglan---especially with all the weight loss.
I haven't weighed myself in a couple of days, but I was up almost 10lbs at last weight check. With my rapid weight gain/showing & extreme fatigue I"m still a bit worried that it might be twins (or farther along). Time will tell, as I cannot get into my dr's before July 18th.
I feel good right now, but I've only been up for a couple hours. I worked on printing my little brother's high school grad cards for him, then I"m going to do the elliptical for 45 minutes or so. Then I"m lounging!!
DH & I are going to take kids back to county fair. DH wants to ride the ferrious (sp?) wheel really bad---I hope I don't vomit. Then we're going to the motoraces---which will be $40 for admission!!! Can you believe it?
Okay, off to w/o. Chat later.

Hi,
I am away for the weekend. DH, DS and I are in our hometown because my mother-in-law's "Celebration of Life" memorial party is today. She passed away in January, and we all thought it would be nice to get everyone together to celebrate her happy/full life. She was not religeous and wanted nothing to do with a traditional funeral/burial. She was her own person, and I truly admired her.
My DH and his bro made this great power point of pictures of her/her family and friends. They set it to music, and it's awesome. Everyone will get a copy who comes. I just put DS down for a nap, so I am going to catch one too, then head out to the celebration.
Yesterday, I worked my upper body on the Bowflex. That felt good. It was cute b/c my DS had to "make muscles" too.
Kristan-I'm thinking about you.
Melanie-Have fun going back to the fair. What is the weather like? It keep raining off and on here, and it's muggy/hot. Is your whole family going to the motoraces? That's $$$!
Mikkia-How are you feeling? Any better?
Morris-How is Aiden? Are you using a breast pump? Which one? My sis lent me her Medella pump-n-style with my DS, but she now gave it to a co-worker (thanks!!!), so I don't feel like paying that much for one.
Kate-My hormones must be acting up too, because I felt "off" these past 2 days. Are yours getting back to normal? I just feel "yuck", like I am not hungry for anything (although I do eat), like I don't want to do anything (although I do stuff), etc. It feels like a bad case of PMS. I hope that straightens out soon. Maybe it's b/c of the memorial thing???
Let's see if I can remember everyone...
Hi Morris! Hi Anne! Hi Susan! Hi Trish! Hi Lisa! Hi Maggie! Hi Stephanie! Hi Candra!
As a teacher, I challenge myself to learn my students' names by the end of the first day. How did I do here? I am sorry if I missed anyone!

Mikkia, You'll even out soon, in a month you'll prob. be posting "I've gained 10 pounds!!!!!" and we'll have to console you on that!:7 :+
Melanie, Sounds like a fun day - the races will be awesome! Good luck on the ferris wheel! July 18 will be here before you know it!
We've been organizing the basement all morning. We're getting so much done and it feels so good. I think I'm going to hire a carpenter to make/install a bunch of cabinets for me down there. In August I'm having my painter do the baby's room (not sure on the color yet though) so he can paint the cabinets then.

Hi Jen - You snuck in while I was posting. The party sounds like a wonderful idea. Hope your nap is restful. Never used a Bowflex before - I'm strictly a free-weights gal and I *have* to follow a DVD or I get too bored/wimp out! I have that pump and really like it, well, as much as you can like a pump!! Sorry for your hormones - thankfully mine seem to be back on track. I really hate feeling that way. Wish mine at least took my hunger away!!

It's raining, so we probably won't go. The fair is going on tomorrow too for a little, so we'll have to go then. The motoraces will not go tomorrow, but that's okay...it's really spendy anyway.
I was only able to do 30 minutes on elliptical, way too fatigued again. Took two naps. With being so tired, it's quite amazing to me that I'm able to get through my long work days. I cannot imagine doing it for another 4 weeks until energy returns!!!!!!!!

Hey preggos,
Been a lazy morning. I did get on the treadmill though and did Tracy's workout.
Not much going on today. Dh is mowing the grass now and later we'll hit walmart! Exciting uh!
My body is doing something. I am still spotting and now my breasts are getting sore again. Who knows. My breasts always get sore before I start so maybe I'll be starting soon.
Everyone have a great day!

Afternoon!!
We walked 4 miles at the trail and then came home grabbed our suits and went swimming.. it was heaven! Now I am going to put these kiddos down to nap and get my run in, a shower, and then plow on the couch for a lifetime movie (if a good one is on.. if not I supposed Fox news will haveto do. LOL )
Mikkia~I wouldn't worry about hte weight loss. I wasn't sick at all and I lose 2 lbs in the first weeks.. then gain those back and stay even till I was 14 weeks and I was up 1 pound at that appt. I also have gained a LOT in the first trimester every other time so this was totaly new for me. I like it though..lol At 22weeks I was up 8lbs total. I had pre-e w/ my first son so i know how scary it can be, but I wouldn't worry about that just yet.
Kate~oh fun basement organizing..lol
Melanie~I just hate it that you are so tired.. it just sounds so frusterating for you. ((hugs)) Just nap when you need it because you don't get to on the weekdays with all the working.
Hi Susan!
I know I am forgetting someone so I'll have to hit post so I can go back and look who it was.

IT was Jen!! That sounds like a wonderful idea to celebrate your mil's life. How far of a drive was it for you?

The fair is off, due to rain. We will go swimming (indoor pool).
Mikkia, you typically don't have to worry about pre-e until 3rd trimester. Have you talked to your DH about Reglan yet?!?!?! Any cravings? I cannot STAND PEANUT BUTTER, not even the smell. Yuk! And...I"m totally outnumbered. It seems like I can smell it on people's breath all the time. Almost as bad as bengay!

Melanie, Sorry about the fair - hoepfully tomorrow. 2 naps!? WOW!
Susan, Sounds like a nice Saturday. Do you like that WO? I'm curious about it. Sorry about the wierd sypmtoms - wish I could do something for you. (((hugs)))
Trish - Sounds like a nice Saturday for you too. Thinking about the pool for us too, but I doubt DH will want to. (Party pooper!! BOOO!)
I just got done with my nap and I feel great! Time to resume choremax! My sweet tooth is calling for attention - I'm trying really hard to not listen to it!

Hey!
DH and Haley are in the pool. I have just been doing stuff around the house.
Kate I do like the Tracey walking workout. I get very bored on the treadmill so its a nice change. Its divided into legwork on the treadmill, ub on the treadmill while walking and hills. Its not the hardest workout I have ever done, but I do like it for a change and I work up a good sweat. The 50 minutes goes by really fast too. The ub/lb work doesnt count for weights or anything, but it give you a little burn, especailly in the legs. I am anxious to hear how you like your Leslie! I have thinking about getting one just to have an easy workout around. I was thinking of getting the "hard" 4 miler. Which one are you getting?

Melanie-I know about the preeclampsia I just decided to start worrying about it now, why wait when I can torture myself for sooo much longer?? I hope you get your energy back soon. Do really think you could have 2 in there?
kate-Basement cleaning? Are you nesting? I love how you call in choremax! Hope your nap was a good one!
Jen-that is so beautiful about the celebration for your MIL. Bowflex is fun, I wish we had one.
Susan- maybe you are about to start a cycle again? That would be great!
I did do cardio with weights this am and then I have been working all day to catch up from being on vacation. DH took the kids into San Antonio for the day(scary thought). I ordered lowmax today. I can't wait.

Kate Ive never ordered from deepdiscount. Hope you get your workout soon!!
Hi Mikkia, You must be feeling better today..thats good! You will like Lowmax. It seems like its so easy, but you get a great lb burn and youre totally exhausted when its over. I use a med ball for the blasts and thats a really at intensity.
My dr said I would probalby start in about 26 days..now I don't know if that is from the start of my m/c or from when I stop spotting. I guess we'll see.
DD has been wanting us to all have a "sleep over" and sleep on the floor..so tonights the night. She is so excited. She has games for us to play and a movie. I may be very stiff on the morning!

Kate- deepdiscount seems to take FOREVER. hope you get your stuff soon.
mikkia- i second susan's rec re lowmax. i use a med ball or a 5 # weight for the blasts and as a reward, I skip section 7 because I really dislike it.
susan- my 7yo DD loves games and movies. She'll be 8 in oct. We've been really into Boggle lately. Of course, she is wanting to see the American Girl movie and my husband really wants to see wall-e (he's a big dork).
yesterday I did B+G standing. My husband gets excited when I tell him my hips and butt hurt thinking it's labor pain, but it's obviously from yesterday! I took the girls to the pool today meaning to swim laps but instead I read magazines and yapped with some mom friends. Maybe I'll swim tomorrow, but I'm not too worried about it.
My ob called to ask me how i was today (recall he's the husband of a friend) and told me to call if I felt anything today or tonight because he's taking his two sons a couple hours outside of town and didn't want to leave if anything was going on.
I am driving my family crazy! I want all 5 of us to scrub and clean together and guess what? no one's interested except me.
