Hellobee Boards

@Jasmum: I have noticed some changes, especially in the back. My lower back/pelvic area gets so sore. I'm not walking differently though.

@Jasmum: it's maybe just your uterus growing?

I ended up calling in sick today. Just so so tired and nauseated. I had to go buy maternity work slacks today, I spent Monday with my pants unbuttoned most of the day.

@maddyz: Yeah, my back didn't start to hurt until the third trimester last time.

@Applesandbananas: I have mine in a couple hours and so nervous too! Of course last night I was dreaming all night about trying to find a razor so I could shave my legs before the appointment. Priorities!

@skipra: @maddyz: good luck!!

@skipra: @maddyz: Good luck today!!! We'll be thinking of you!

I'm six weeks today. I had to leave a meeting because my coughing was making me nauseated. It's dusty here because I work in a construction zone.

Ughhhhhh. I wish I could go home.

@mrsjd: I have better days and worse days. I think a lot of it has to do with me eating enough (anything...)

@skipra: Oh wow, that's interesting that they want you to do Panorama as well as the NT. Did they say why? Dang, your second baby was 2 lbs more! That freaks me out. I'm very tall and so is my husband so I guess I just figured it'd be normal for us to have big babies?

@avivoca: @avivoca: Feel better ladies! I hear you on just wanting to go home.

@MrsKoala: Just following along here from the August board and had to say, my first was a big boy at 9lbs, 3oz, too. No GD and my husband and I are both taller people. I carried my second 9 days longer and was so concerned about how big the baby would be and she was 8lbs, 13oz so don't worry that you'll end up with a bigger baby the second time - definitely no guarantee!!

As a 2 time September Mama, I wanted to pop in and say congrats to all of the September 2016 Mamas! I hope you all have wonderful pregnancies and easy deliveries!

All looks good. Big sigh. I didn't realize how stressed out I was about my ultrasound. Heart rate is 167 and measuring right on date. Everything is where it should be.

@MrsKoala: I had a 9 pound first. I think everyone was a little surprised he was that big. I bet this one could be easily that big. I come from lots of big babies. I am a little nervous, but i also trust my body to handle whatever it makes.

Hella crazy pregnancy dreams last night!

In one, DH told me the day before he was going to Jamaica with some friends and other people from work. He was like "I didn't think you would want to come, but if you want to buy a plane ticket, I guess you can come." But a day out, tickets were astronomical, so I was looking at Uber lol. I was so mad at him! Then I decided to just have a great week with LO and do lots of fun stuff, and tried to invite my mom down, who told me that she's moved to Chicago months ago (which is pretty far from me!) It ended with LO and I having Valentine's dinner at Texas Roadhouse lol.

The second dream was more of a nightmare. LO had a really horrible daycare director (IRL) who was fired (IRL) and in the dream, she came back as some kind of weird liaison role, with the intention of covering the new director while she was on maternity leave (which is so weird because the new director is in her 50s with kids in college and beyond). But the old director's first order of business is yelling at me for LO pushing someone and she got so nasty about it. I was so confused, asking if the other child was hurt and she said no, it wasn't like that, but it was her child he pushed and that that was unacceptable (also bizarre because she was in her early 60s!) and she threatened to throw LO out for it!

I finally woke up when the dog wanted out, thank goodness.

@avivoca: pregnancy insomnia is the worst. DH started snoring (I think he's coming down with a cold) and between his snoring, toddler sleep antics, the dog wanting to go out all hours of the night, and pregnancy insomnia, I'm a zombie.

@avivoca: I've got a gross cough going on. I didn't even think of it being pregnancy related. I'm so so so so tired too

Adding to crazy pregnancy dreams - I had a dream last night that the baby was born with a full set of teeth! Made breastfeeding really scary!

@Applesandbananas: Yay! This is great news.

@skipra: @maddyz: @Applesandbananas: Yea for a good appointment! It always feels a little better after that first appointment, I think.

@coopsmama: That is comforting. My DH was over 11lbs and my first was only 9lbs 8oz and I am terrified of having an 11lb baby this time around. I feel like I dodged a bullet the first time. Hopefully my luck hasn't run out.

@avivoca: I've done the couch thing a few times already. I just wake up a lot and I can't get back to sleep. I try to go get on the couch and read for a while for a change of scenery and then go back to bed.

@lmay820: That is a hilarious, but scary, dream!

I stupidly signed up for a CrossFit competition tomorrow before I knew I was pregnant. Luckily, my partner is an OB so I just told her the news and she said we can just have a good time and she knows I might not be at my best. I hope I don't feel too bad tomorrow or it's going to be a rough day.

@tlcbaby: It's so nice and cool in our living room so I think that helped too. I hope you do well with your competition. I've got a six mile run tomorrow and I'm a little worried about how I'm going to fuel properly for it. I'm taking my debit card just in case.
