KOLLEEN - I totally understand! My dh runs a small metal fab shop out of the converted barn on our property, but there is no bath/kitchen over there. So, he over the years has had a couple different employees & they all come over here to use the "facilities", get coffee, etc. Although he hasn't had anyone working in the shop with him in a few months, I remember what is was like. Nice guys and all, but it just felt like an intrusion and I never knew when it was going to happen. Since I'm a stay at home mommy & I'm here a lot, I always felt like I had to be dressed, the house & bath spotless, coffee always on, etc. Don't get me wrong, nice guys, always polite but not talkative, they would get in and get out, but it STILL felt like an intrusion. I hated that I couldn't just come downstairs in my ratty robe and messy hair to grab some coffee first to start my day. Plus, we only have one bathroom here and it's downstairs, so I would have to plan it all out, it was such a pain in the *ss, and my dh never understood why it bothered me. Could your dh pick this guy up instead of him coming over?

My dr's office starts two week appts. at 28 weeks and every week appointments at 36 weeks.

Ok girls wanted to check in again - I slept good and feel good today - my feet are a little swollen but it's getting hot outside....other than that been working like crazy at work....I am so happy that knock on wood no drama this week!! yee hah!! It's nice weather here and I have got some mean spring fever....and opened toe shoes today

I feel awful, i never felt this pain its in my lower back and i have these huge cramps.. and she wont stop moving.. if i lay on my back i feel the pressure and if i lay on the sides i feel this vibrant feeling. i guess its from this afternoon, i took care of this 5 mo. old baby for a friend. and he is very light weight n slim but i think it was just the bending down n sudden movements. I really feel uncomfortable and i just hope that she's ok. i kinda wanna cry because i truly feel worried.. but then im trying my best to think positive.. she is moving so i know she's there.. :-( im just bummed out

Julia, after reading a lot on these threads for a long time I always say that if something just doesn't FEEL right then please call the hospital or L&D. It is better to feel stupid for finding out nothing is wrong than to feel horrible regret for not having looked into something that was bad. You know? That is why I am the resident worrier here :) TINA, send some of that spring weather my way!!! It's getting better here after a crazy cold snap this weekend but it's still only high in the mid 50s. By the weekend it should be 70 again hopefully!!! This weekend is when Jessie and I go away starting Thurs. night. I won't be on again until late Sunday. I'm kind of nervous about being away from home and the hospital if anything goes wrong. I'll be in a place where I dont think they have any big hospitals or anything. Ahhh, there I go again.... :-S

JULIA -I am with STEF - if you are so worried that you want to cry then call your doctor or go to the ER or L&D - you will feel better and believe me you won't be the first one they have seen worried and needing rea__surance....KOLLEEN - I know what you mean about the guy just sitting out there that is very irritating especially first thing in the morning....man it sure has been quiet the last couple of days....hugs to you all and I hope you are all ok...Hillary, Crystal, Kendra, HEATHER - we miss you!! come back!

hey ladies i feel extra heavy today i had to kinda roll out of bed he he.. its getting harder for me to put my shoes on and my pants on. The bending part is the hard part for me. and i still have 12 weeks left of growing... I am defintely going to get a pedicure and start wearing sandals of flip flops soon:) My boyfriend and i were shopping the other day and everytime he sees a cute baby girl outfit he just has to get it.. this one said daddy's girl so of course he wanted it. He is getting so excited. He has felt the baby move quite a few times. Precious if your hurting that bad please go to the doctor.. Better to know than to not know everything is ok.

Good morning, i got a good rest last night i think its the 1st time i slept the whole night it felt so good. my back is still sore but everything else is fine. I guess i just got tired too quick n my body wasn't use to all the movements since ive always been home. I'll see how it goes today im going to do this babysitting job for a while.. i need the extra cash.

Hello all - well I took my 1 hr test this morning and it wasn't so bad - I had lemon-lime to drink - I'll find out next week on the 23rd how I did I thought my appt was tomorrow but it's actually next week....so.....I felt like I almost crushed poor Megan last night trying to get into bed - time for a step stool I can't heave myself up anymore and since I am going to be peeing all night long pretty soon I better be prepared...LOL - HILLARY - girl I feel so large myself and heavy and slow to boot...every little thing I do makes me lose my breath - ridiculous! KENDRA - look at that belly girl you look gorgeous though! JULIA - so glad you feel better today - I am sure in a few days you will adjust to watching that baby - how do you like it? Is it scary for you or does it make you more excited? I am a little nervous even though it's my third - I believe I suffer from Mommy amnesia.....so I don't really remember what it was like having a new born....crazy huh? Oh and I got a present in the mail last night- it was the pad for my changing table I am so excited! I have to call my girlfriend and thank her.

Hi Tina.. well its pretty good its only for 3hrs. the baby is a boy so i'm use to it.. i would love to be around a baby girl because i know its completely different but everyone around me have boys. i dont feel as nervous because i did take care of my 2 lil brothers. But i looked at him yesterday and when i was holding him Lia was kicking me and i just can't believe that i'll soon have a baby like him. Its a great feeling but also kinda nerve racking lol

KENDRA- i took my 1 hr test last week and got a 182. so now i go tomorrow to take the three hr test. im really not looking forward to it. but i just want lylee to be ok. i slept so bad last night. i woke up at 330 and could not go back to sleep till 500. i went back to my bed and right at 730 that guy showed up. im telling ya im about to flip. when lylee comes he wont be showing up here. what if she is sleepingin the living room with me and he k nocks and wakes her up. ill kill him. lol. not really but yeah!!! i know how everyone feels about feeling heavy. im not usually this big. i started out at 156 and now im almost 180. my knee is starting to hurt and ache. it could be from walking alot too. i have my dr appt on thursday. im wondering if he will have the results back from my test yet. well ill check in later

Hey girls just popping in...it seems pretty common to fail the 1 hr. glucose test so I wouldn't worry too much? I'm not an expert on it though. I'm sure I'll be upset if I fail it. Mine still is not till next Friday (grrr) but I have my drink here and have had it for almost 4 weeks now sitting in the cabinet. I have to put it in the fridge today and will drink it right before my appt.

tina- thanks = ] its getting so flipping huge lol. i cant wait for summer weather!!!! so i can wear the capri's i bought hehe, its suppose to be int he 70s here tomorrow yikes im excited! KOLLEEN- so sry to hear; i love you i think the more you think about it the more it will p__s you off calm down.

As far as the glucose test goes - if I fail it by mere points I'll tell him to pound sand and that I won't be doing the 3 hour test - unless he wants to pay my hourly rate to sit there - I'll will tell him I will do another 1 hour test but I won't do a three hour test - forget it! to be a point or 2 away give me a break - not all women are the same so why would one test be a one size fits all - I pa__sed both of my others so I am not worried plus I haven't gained a ton of weight like with my last 2 .....I am feeling rebellious today - my monster in law called last night and asked to speak with Cor (which is always trouble) she set up an appointment at a karate studio for us Thursday - 20 miles away from where we live - UH HELLO????? dude WTF??? why can't she mind her own f*cking business - it infuriates me to no end - I am sure in her little pea brain she thinks she is helping but the fact that she told Cor about it and not me shows that she knows I would have vetoed it on the spot. So tonight when I go pick up Aidan I will tell you to please cancel that appointment because we have a place 5 mins from our house to take the boys....ARRRGGGHHHHH dude I have a feeling I will be telling her off before it's all over. I am so sick of her meddling - it drives me mad - what really p__ses me off about the whole thing is the day Cor was talking about it she called him the next day and said if you want the boys in Karate you better check out some places yourself and dont' expect me or Tina to do it....uh ok so now you go make the appointment because why? you guys if I could spit fire right now I would.

TINA- im so sorry that ur MIL p__ses u off that bad. dont let her get to u not right now. its not worth it. i know thats easier said then done. i could not imagine having to deal with c___p like that. my MIL lives across the country. i have only met her one time too. but what i do know of her i dont think im gonna have many problems. we have to call her. she dont really call us. but u have to put ur foot down. ur the mother of those kids. and its great that she has an opinon and wants to help, but sometimes she should probably keep it herself. and for her to bypa__s u like she did is total bs. im with u on that one girly. ok so now for my day. i took a quiz at school. i got a 96. and im p__sed. i miss one question on it and the one question i missed was this cyt/o means what. i f-ing put kidney. NO NO NO!!! it was cell. i knew the answer but i put the wrong one!!! ahhhhhhh!!!!!! I HATE IT WHEN I DO THAT. i dont know what i was thinking. ok i have to go. marriage cla__s is tonight so ill talk later. =}
