Leslie, you are one day ahead of me. I will be five weeks tomorrow.
I'm a southern girl too. Where are y'all from? I'm from Virginia. It has been so hot here and I know it's only going to get hotter. Is bruising a sign of pregnancy? I always bruise easily, but lately it seems like the littlest bump produces a bruise.
Hey! I am in NY now, but I grew up in South Carolina, and where I come from, it's where you were born & raised that counts.. :) Now my whole extended family refers to me as "the Yankee" though, so I dunno.. My grandma always blamed my mom, who musta gone wrong somewhere: Not only did I go to school up North, I up and married a furrener too! (they all love my DH now though- he's been adopted into the clan)
Good luck w/ the playgroup! If it's the first time you're meeting them, it makes sense you were in full-on cleaning mode. I'm sure it will be great! Always good to meet new people/ make new friends..
xoxo L (oh, right- you can have Les.. people used to call me Leslichka when I lived in Russia.. or since greina is a valley in switzerland, people can call me lesch (CH is the abbreviation for Switzerland - stands for Confederation Helvetica). But that sounds like a cross between "lush" and "lech" so maybe not.. :) by the way, aren't you in the 2T already soon??
Y'all (hee hee) can have some of my boobs! I have plenty to go around these days. DH wouldn't be too happy with me, though. I swear I went from a smallish 34D to a largish 34DD overnight!
Jenn, I do the same thing with cutting and pasting in Outlook! I share an office with someone, but he's a brown noser and I feel like he's always watching me to see if I'm on task. I also have nosy co-workers who come stand behind me and say "whatcha doin'?" None of your GD business! LOL
Continuing to hear the h/b on the doppler every morning... and loving it!
oooh- I hate the whatcha doin' types!! Always reminds me of Bill from Office Space.. if there is anyone on this site who works or has ever worked outside the home in an office, you MUST see that movie! Hilarious! I used to have a boss like that- I swear he spent most of his time walking around, "popping" by, etc. Luckily that was back in the day, when I actually had a work ethic. Ah, youth!
I just got myself an iced decaf.. yum..
Jenn, I love your drs office too! they sound so great! I will have to use that cut-and-paste tip when I make the dreaded move..
Ann, don't worry- we won't be grammar police.. It is the internet, after all. (i just knew that Leslie, as a self-respecting Southerner, wouldn't mind!) :) It's the only time I've ever comented on a speling misteak and i've seen alot of them on the boreds!
Amy, continued YAYS on the HB!
Teresa, goody- glad to have a buddy so close! When is your next appt? You already had your first, right? Or am I mixed up? Do you have other children already? sorry, I feel like I should know that!
Hi girls! So good to hear about all of these wonderful appts. i am anxiously awaiting my first appt with my new office tomorrow. It seems like forever since last time I went.Alot has been going on around here and I feel like I am going to lose my mind. I was promoted to asst. mgr despite being preggers so that is good however, the mgr put in her 2 week notice and her last day is Sat. I have barely had any training and they dont know who they are going to have to replace her ugh!!! I am a nervous wreck. I dont know how to order have the stuff and the schuedule (84people) took her 5weeks of 8 hour shifts to learn and I have had 6 hours total and I will be on my own umm HELP. I keep telling myself I can do this but man preggo brain has taken over wish me luck ladies.
Another thing is my sil is due 7/7 shes 37 almost 38 weeks. She isnt measuring well only 32 they have her coming in for non stress tests twice a week. She is also bleeding on and off sometimes heavily with no change in her dialation and she is suppose to see a doc after each nonstress test but they are always too busy and she has a NP who tells her I dont know what to tell you!! This is the same office I just switched out of thank goodness but i am losing sleep over this for her. Now she is so frustrated she is canceling her nonstress tests becuse they dont even evaluate them anyway according to her and it is costing her $200 a pop. My dd had iugr and I went through the same thing and I am trying to tell her to get loud and get answers and not miss these appts!!! i understand her frustration butin the end this can only harm her baby kwim?? Okay sorry this is such a book I just had to get it off my chest.
Oh yeah and we went to see dh's grandma in nursing home and she looks like she could pass on at any moment. It was so sad to see I started bawling
We arent given any more than we can handle, right? I have to keep telling myself that. thanks for letting me dump it all out on you guys.
No problem. It's hard to keep everybody straight sometimes. This will be my second. I have a DS who is almost 2. I haven't had an appointment yet. My doc wants to wait until after my u/s on July 5th. It seems like such a long time away. Two week count down starts today! I hope all goes well with your appt. Friday right?
Wow it seems like you have a lot on your plate right now. Vent away. Congrats on the job. Try to think positive. I know when I get overwhelmed I try to break things down into smaller pieces (Get through this task. Master this new skill. Get through this week.) I know that's hard to do when you're a manager and you have to think big picture but maybe it will help. I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties your SIL is facing and about DH's grandmother. Sounds like a lot of people lean on you. Good luck at your appt. tomorrow.
Luckily I am a SAHM so I don't have to worry about the whata doing types (unless you count my DH who does that lot too :) Feeling better today than I have in a few days, don't know if that is good or bad, kwim??? I think that I am going to go ahead and order a doppler and keep it at least until I can feel the baby move on a regular basis.
