Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey everyone hope you all had great weekends! It was nothing big for me just more unpacking fun fun... just figured it was kind of quiet so I would check in with everyone

Good morning!! Pretty quiet at this end as well. We got the floor and the painting done in the nursery and it looks great!! Very excited to get some stuff in there and finish the painting!! No movement for me yet to report. Getting kind of impatient!! I went and finally bought a few mat. clothes. They are not cheap though!! Holy c___p!! Looks like it may be the same pair of jean for me to live in for the next five months!! lol!! Dr. appointment tommarow - just monthly checkup, no u/s until the 19th. :( How was everyone's weekend?? Are you just about doen your unpacking kitkat??

Hey guys! Hope you all have survived the weekend. Mine was actually pretty good- went to a wedding on Sat. and hubby's bday was on Sunday. I am one emotional broad though! He had to work on his bday and I boohooed like a baby trying to get him to stay home! I am happy to report I have felt movement! They are little love taps and only when I am laying down and very sporadic, but dangit-its movement!!!! He was actually quite active when I felt it on Friday. Ya know, it's funny because I've felt this 3 times before, but it's so easy to forget how it actually feels, until you feel it again. Did that make sense? Is anyone else noticing a noticeable difference in their belly? It feels like my uterus is only about 1 inch below my belly b___ton now. And my b___bs! Goodness gracious that is much welcomed, especially since I was barely a "A" prepregnancy.

hieee ladies! busy weekend for me, working on our remodel and shopping. but we went out for dinner at my fav restaurant last night so that was worth the work. I went to the mall (willowbrook for anyone in jersey) and it was a zoo and it exhausted me!! but I got a pair of jeans (for $150 GASP!!) and a pair of black pants and cords from gap for a combined total of $70 - not quite as shocking. anyway, I feel better now to have such comfy pants. but I'm with you softbreeze, I will be rotating these couple pairs until it gets hot and then I'll buy a couple pairs of capris. yucky maternity clothes!!!

I have unpacked what I think is enough and we still have loads of boxes to go I don’t know where all this c___p came from. I don’t know what to do with a lot of it just stupid things like lamps and small tables and stuff gathered while we had our storage unit it is rather frustrating. I think when the weather is nicer we should have a nice yard sale!

Well ladies I had a great weekend but when I came into work today they told me that tehy will be cutting my hours as of today from mon-fri to mon, wed and fri which for me is scary because I am the bread winner in my family and that eventually they will be doing away with my position which means my insurance too! What a way to start a Monday. So my entire morning has been spent crying uncontrolably and now I have a head ache... This really sucks and I am totally p__sed.

Oh no momma I'm so sorry to hear but all you can do is keep your chin up and maybe they will decide you are much needed and not do away with your position... Best of luck i will be thinking of you hoping of the best

Thanks kitkat. i am very down. Unfortunatley the company that I work for has been bought out about a yr ago and they ahve been making changes and they feel my position is no longer needed. so oh well... I guess theres nothing more to do or say to them. ALthough I think it is in very bad taste for them to do this with me pregnant and 2yrs here at the comapny with a great work history but I'm not the one to determine it so whatever... What is so funny is if they were to lay me off I would make more money from unemployment than if I worked 3 days a week... Thats sad.

Gabby I tried to locate you on face book using your name and I couldn't find you. Only three gabrieles turned up and I didn't think it was you. I am going to have to open a myspace acount!!ekay - how did the hubby like the dress??;) I am jelouse that you have gotten movement. Every once in a while I feel something that catches me off gaurd whenI am not paying attention that feels kind of like a bubble bursting, an dI am thinking thatmaybe that is it,but nothing that I have felt that I am paying attention too. I was listening on the doppler this weekend and the heartrate really seems to fluctuate now. Anywhere from hih 130's to 150. That must be normal right? It usually sits int he low 140's(when I think babe is sleeping or resting and then is in the high 140's to 150 when I think babe is playing. I am not sure where my uterus is sitting. I can't really feel it, although I dont really know what I am feeling for. My belly seems to be quiet noticable and hard after I eat now. Maybe it is just the fat layer on top!! I have been wathcing on ebay for some amterinty clothes,but I always want to try them on!! I have really long legs and dont want to get anything that willbe too short adn look funny!! Yes ekay the b___bs!!! Mine are out of controll!! I have already gone up two cup sizes and we are only almost half way there. Getting a little worried, is it possible for them to explode?? I was pretty chesty to start with prepregnancy and now... whoa!!! Yikes!! KitKat - that is waht we are doing to in the spring. Big yard sale and we decided that all the money that we make we are going to start a Rsp for the baby with it. Great way to get rid of junk!!! :)

Oh momma, that is not good. What a stresser. I am sorry to hear that you have to deal with this now. Is it possible to speak to themand maybe ask if they could reconsider doing these changes until you go on matleave?? It is not too far away. Maybe they willahve the understanding that it will be hard for you to gain emplyment elsewhere at this point in your pregnancy and do the right thing by you. I wish you all the luck in this. If not, they will lay you off correct?? So at the very least you can collect UI??

I doubt talking will work but I am going to try SB. I just can't believe they are doing this... See my father pa__sed away and left my mom and my 16yr old brother... well he had a biz with his dad my granddad and my mom wokred there for 23yrs... well my granddad is after my dads 40% of the company and his money and he fired my mom in jan. so jeremy and i sold our house and moved in with my mom to help her with bills. my boss knows all of thios due to the fact we have a small office... so not only is he gonna let me go but they are also hurting my mom who is out of work and is in the middle of a lawsuit and stuff and he knows that my husband is a student finishing up this aug... i just cant stand people, you think they are there for you then they drop you like your a piece of c___p....

Wow that is sure a mess momma. I can't believe your grandad would do that to your family. I give you and Jeremey so much credit for doing all you can to help out your mom. Is there any type of a__sistance that your mom is eligibl eot apply ofr while they try and get this lawsuit sorted out? Good luck at work, I hope your boss has a little heart and compasion and see's what the right thing to do in this situatuion is. And if they insist on letting you go, make sure that you have all basis covered as far as getting any benifits that you can. I wish I could offer some advise that would be of benift to you and I hate to see you going through this. Is there any way to contact the labour board and speak to them in regards to what is going on and see if there is any legal way that they can help you out with to make them keep you until you go on mat leave? Maybe there is some law that willnot allow them to let you gobecuase of your pregnancy?? Or maybe can you apply to go on mat leave now and get your benifits for the year(or however long you guys get them for there and then go on UI? There has got to be soem way around this that will benifit you int he end not them.

Hello ladies! Hope you all had a great weekend. Mine was only 1/2 great. Sunday morning I woke up with HORRIBLE back pain. Went into Urgent Care which it Turned out to be a Kidney stone. So they gave me pain killers and sent me home. It was PURE HELL. Just as bad as labor pains. I even was throwing up do to the pain. Ladies, MAKE SURE you drink your water!! I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone!! I knew I wasn't drinking enough, and now I sured paid the price! Luckily I'm fine now but affraid I'll get more. Other than that doing great. Felt baby move a lot yesterday during my ordeal. Which was actually kind of nice to have something to help get my mind off all the pain. Hope you all are having a great day!!

SB idk what or when anything will happen I am supose to talk to my boss this afternoon when he returns... I guess we shall know then. As for my benifits all I am concerned iwth is my health ins or me and the baby. Is the laid me off then I can go undert the state program which will be fine till the baby is born and I can look for a new job.

Boy we aren't very talkative lately... what's going on? everyone just busy????

Must be the monday blues! I am fighting to stay awake at my desk, and thinking of all the questions I want to ask my dr tommarow at my checkup. Seems like I had a million and now I can barley think of two!! Preggo brain at work I think!! I should learn to write them down when I think of them. How is your afternoon going momma??
