I haven't noticed any waddling...I feel like I am still walking normal. For the most part I feel pretty great. I have had a little harder time falling asleep a few nights in the past couple weeks., but nothing too bad.

Sometimes as I'm falling asleep I think I feel a little bit of restless leg syndrome (which I've never had, so not sure if that is what it feels like??), but just for a second or so. I hope that doesn't become a thing!

@ms.janedoe: I don't think I waddle yet but I do walk slower and when we're at the pool I'm so conscious of all the thigh rub going on.

@Maysprout: @Ash: HA! And pregnancy is when I'm really glad that I've had thigh rub almost my entire life, lol. One less thing to worry about changing.

@MrsDragon: Not too bad! My drink was lemon-lime and a little more sugary than I remembered but I just downed it as quickly as possible I arrived at the lab just before 8 am and it turns out my midwife forgot to sign the bottom of the orders! Luckily they let me take the drink awhile and started the clock then called my OB/GYN's office as soon as they opened. The lab said there was a chance they may have to toss the blood if the ordered didn't get faxed in enough time, but they faxed a signed copy as soon as they got off the phone...phew! I had to stay there though. The lady actually said she would hunt me down if I tried to leave (said she did once and found the last at the local grocery store lol).

Sorry you felt a little sick after but glad you got to rest it off!

@FarmWifeGina: BAahahah, yes to the thigh rub...it's always been there so that's not a new one for me either!

@MrsDragon: @anbanan15: Glad the drinkin' went well!

@Ash: Hell yeah!!! So awesome!

Haha this thigh rub talk is cracking me up. I have it and pretty much always do, but DH assures me its because I have "muscular thighs" (I ran a lot pre-pregnancy). I definitely notice it a lot more these days though!

@MrsCastro: YES! Yesterday, I helped DH set up his classroom. I was up and down all day and walking around a lot. This morning, my hips hurt so bad!

@MrsDragon: Did you get your lab results back yet? Nice low number again, so no 3 hour test for me! Yippy!! I feel a little nauseous this morning though. Hmmm...

@anbanan15: They told me everything would be in today except for my B12 test (I asked for it because I've been deficient in the past, and they had to ship it out to a different lab so I won't hear anything till my next appointment). I think they'll only call if there's a problem and I haven't heard anything yet!

@MrsCB: Haha, just today I was thinking about how much I hate getting dressed! My closet is a mess (moving) and I feel like stuff just doesn't fit me right, plus I'm bored with what I have but don't want to spend any more money.

@MrsCB: I am! I've always been self conscious and a bit overweight so now that i'm supposed to have a bump all of my clothes look so much better and I just feel so much more well-dressed, even if I've had the shirt for years. I'm also wearing fitted stuff for the first time in my life, I am a major anti-clingy shirt person but I'm loving them over my bump!

@MrsTiz: Yep! He has a party between 1am-3am. I know this because I'm normally awake... Yay insomnia! I also feel him move in the mornings around 8-10ish. During the day, he's pretty chill.

@MrsTiz: I get a lot of kicks during the day when I'm at work. Pretty much whenever I snack at my desk I've noticed activity. I'm usually eating fruit & I think he likes the sugar

@Mrs. J: Yay! That's so exciting! Our crib should be here next week!!! We have a kitchen table and chairs (no place for them in our apartment) currently in the nursery, but my sister is taking them to college with her this weekend. I've been decorating around the random furniture haha.

@MrsCB: I'm loving dressing my bump when I can be casual at home. But having to go into the office today made me realize I don't have a whole lot of options for business casual. Thank goodness I work from home!

@MrsTiz: No patterns here. I'm hoping it means I have a good, sleepy baby I was able to share the excitement with my husband over the past weekend. It was our 6th wedding anniversary and the baby was so active. I didn't know if it was only something I could feel, but when my husband put his hand on my belly he actually felt it and said WHOA! It was a magical moment - so happy to share it with him.

@Mrs. J: Container store probably has something - but maybe not cheap. That's so exciting about your crib!!

@Ash: I'm not dealing with it right now, but early, OMG, yes. It seems to come and go throughout pregnancy for me. It'll be back in force in late pregnancy. So yes, it's completely normal. Some women resort to panty liners. Yours may come and go, or it may just stay that way until delivery. Cheers! Lol, one of those lovely parts of pregnancy no one tells you about.

@Ash: Huh? Then, like, every pregnant woman I know has had this sign of pre-term labor. I wouldn't worry about that unless you start with some regular contractions or something.

@Ash: I've read that too and also freaked out with my first because I always felt like I had a lot. I was told it was normal and not to worry unless there was blood or had an odor (could indicate leaking fluids) etc.

Today, my lunchtime errand was to buy a snoogle. I needed something more effective than the pillows I keep pushing out of the way, to keep me from sleeping on my back. What can I say? I'm a back sleeper. Anywho - I picked up some chinese food for lunch and I just felt so preggers walking in my front door carrying a pregnancy pillow and takeout chinese. Just thought I'd share Have any of you had those "oh my, I'm so pregnant" moments?
