@abbydabbydoodlebug: marshmallows as bribes sounds like an awesome idea! I wonder if I could use that to get DS to play independently for 5 minutes!!!

@JennyPenny: My date was moved back to April 30, due to late O. So I'm only 7w1d today!

@abbydabbydoodlebug: omg yes on the exhaustion! I have been falling asleep on the couch every single day and wake up to one or more little faces looking at me like "whats wrong with you mommy?!?" lol!

@JennyPenny: Congrats on the appointment! I'm so excited to go on Wednesday!
@abbydabbydoodlebug: the struggle is real. My husband did a triathalon on Saturday and I had LO most of the day. We watched more TV than I care to admit. I have been taking at least 2 hour naps (when he naps) every day and work has been a strugglefest to stay awake all day. And I've been going to bed by 9 every night... Hurry up second trimester!

Just a rant
So this morning has been rough already and I haven't even been up for an hour. My alarms never went off until my daughter bus arrived so I have to rush her around. That made me feel awful. No Morning cuddles for me. In the process I woke up my son which made me feel even worse. Now I'm cleaning because I just know that at any moment I will get the quarterly inspection notice on my door. I know I'll get it today because I have my OB appointment at 10 tomorrow. So of course I'd get an inspection while I'm gone. /: but then again if I get everything done and because I'm expecting it I might not get one today and the anxiety will continue. Gahhhh I hope today gets better.

@littleblessings: big hugs. Sorry you're having a rough morning mama.
I took a 1.5 hour nap yesterday, laid on the couch most of the day, DH cooked dinner after getting home from a bad day at work and I went to bed as soon as DD did! Woke up this morning still exhausted. I'm going to drag my butt to the park and library today for DD's sake. Barely ate breakfast because of the yucky stomach feeling. Uuuugh. I hate thinking I have like, 2 more months of this.

@littleblessings: ugh! I hate days that start off like that! Hope it gets better! (and what on earth is a quarterly inspection?! I couldn't deal.)
@abbydabbydoodlebug: I completely agree. I feel like complete crap today and can't get enough sleep. I get overwhelmed and want to cry when I think that I (we) could feel like this for 4-8 more weeks....or longer...

@abbydabbydoodlebug: thank you!
@psw27: quarterly inspections is when management at my apartments come into your house and look around every 3 months. The worst part is they do it with or without you being home.

Hello April Mamas! I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies are showing yet? I know it early for some but still... This is my second pregnancy and I feel a bit bigger this time around.
pear / 1739 posts
@psw27: technically I don't think it's legal in our state but according to contract it is.
pomelo / 5791 posts
@bubblegum: This is my 3rd child, 4th pregnancy, and my belly is definitely already showing to me, though not yet to the world (I don't think). I am super uncomfortably bloated though! Lol
pear / 1717 posts
@ValentineMommy: Awww! I love to hear I'm not the only one!! This is my 3rd pregnancy, 2nd baby. Do you feel "fat"? Where you just want to say please don't judge me I'm just pregnant lol
nectarine / 2460 posts
@bubblegum: Well I guess I must be showing at least a little for a stranger to ask. I'm definitely bigger, but I feel like I'm in that stage where most people would think "that's just left-over pooch from from the first baby, not a new one"

@bubblegum: @ValentineMommy: @bubblegum: oh I am so bloated! I did not feel this way with my first. I feel huge too. I'm plus size to begin with so I just feel so much bigger and I can't suck in so I just look fatter. Ugh. Everything is uncomfortable to wear. I did feel better getting out of the house this morning with DD, even though I feel like a sloth.
Anyone have had food aversion? I just gagged and almost threw up making lunch for my DD. Terrible.
pomelo / 5791 posts
@abbydabbydoodlebug: I have all food aversions, no cravings. Same as my other two kids. Blech.....

@abbydabbydoodlebug: Poor thing! Yes to food aversions!!! It's the WORST! First time I have ever dealt with it
pomelo / 5220 posts
@abbydabbydoodlebug: everything is grossing me out. It's horrible.
@ValentineMommy: Oh yeah I'm bloated and yucky feeling and feel like everyone can tell.
nectarine / 2460 posts
@ValentineMommy: Nope, I have all cravings, no aversions. Someone just says a word and I instantly want that food. I've recently given into cravings for bruschetta, cheerios, cheeseburgers, sushi (cooked), chicken parm pizza, and baklava. No wonder belly is growing.....

@JennyPenny: I'm jealous! I hope I get over this nausea and aversion stuff soon. I literally hate eating right now - I'm eating plenty but I have to make myself eat anything.

@bubblegum: My bloat bump is out of control! I'm just waiting for one of my kids at school to call me out on it lol.
@abbydabbydoodlebug: Not so much food aversions, but definitely smell aversions here. Being in the kitchen is a struggle right now.
Oh my, my teething dd plus this exhaustion is really getting to me today. Mine had been coming in waves, but now seems here to stay. I sympathize with all you mamas who are having a rough day!

My ultrasound today was good! But they adjusted my due date because the size was matching my late ovulation date so I'm now due 5/3 so I'll jump over to the May board

@bubblegum: not showing yet although this is my first baby! I do have some major bloat that looks questionable by the end of each day though!
@abbydabbydoodlebug: definitely having some food aversions. Hoping that those, along with crazy nausea, don't last too long!!

@Mamag511: Oh kids! Those honest little angels! lol
@Lilac: Aww soon enough that bump will be front and center!

@yellowbeach: lol! But how amazing is it to be pregnant in the time of the internet and same day deliveries....
nectarine / 2636 posts
@yellowbeach: haha! I'm sorry you had to put in that order in the first place, but prime now is pretty amazing!
My DD had a rough night last night abs didn't go to sleep until like 930,and woke up at 645. I yawned and said I was tired and she said, "I'm sorry mama that I woke you up from your sweet dreams. " oh this kid. I also had to play with her like a cat (with an actual cat toy) to get her in a good mood before she said that. Lol.

@abbydabbydoodlebug: aw that is so cute! How old is your LO? 9:30 would kill me since I was definitely asleep by 9 last night!
@yellowbeach: amazon for the win! Hope you are feeling better
My appointment day is FINALLY here... tick tick until 2 pm! Hopefully everything is on track and looking good.

@abbydabbydoodlebug: @Mamag511: @bubblegum: Thanks mamas! I'm back! It went well. Got to see the little gummy bear floating around and the heartbeat flicking away. The doc moved my due date to 4/26 based on sizing, but that doesn't surprise me since I think I O'd a bit later. My birthday is the 27th so I might end up with a birthday twin!
