I'm sorry, barfing while pregnant is no fun at all. I hope you find some relief soon.
Kim, happy to see your positive self is back Even if there is a bright side to diabetes, I hope you don't have it!
Happy Thursday, peeps! Is it the last day of the work week for everyone?
Thanks . No barfing today, though I don't feel well, and I hear from my older ds that my younger ds has puked all over his room...so puke is just in my life right now.

Alex and Noah have friday and monday off, and Liam has those plus Tuesday. I'm looking forward to the break, maybe get some gardening done.
I've kind of forgotten about the whole Easter aspect of this weekend and need to get cracking. I've got some baking and menu planning to do!
Yeah, I'm way behind on Easter because of this illness...ugh, so much to do! The fact that my brain says nest and my body says rest doesn't work that well either!

I think it is about $3.79 a gallon here last I paid.
Hi girls, I might make my way back to the JM world....haven't been around these parts lately but I read all.the.time and know what you girls are up to...aka stalker
It's a bright, sunny day though. I imagine it's pretty brisk out there, but still nice and sunny. I kind of have no idea what to do with the kids today.
Hey, has anyone's skin turned to crap since having kids? I've always had blemish free skin, even as a teenager. Since Holly I've been getting acne. Mostly around my jawline, a bit on my forehead. What gives? Sucks.
I've had that too. I recently bought this package from my sil who does avon, and it's been helping a lot. I actually had super nice skin after the boys. it seems as though Ella stole all my pretty.
Morning girls! sorry about the skin Michelle, mine has actually gotten better since having kids, pre kids I always got break outs, it does suck.
So I saw the uro, he was nice, I was totally honest with him and told I am scared as *#@$, he understood and told me to try and relax, basically he couldn't tell me too much, he needs to do a cystoscopy and look in my bladder and see if he finds anything, I understand that, it is scheduled for next Thursday. He basically said any blood in urine needs to be worked up for a cause, because it "could" be from a malignancy, I already knew this soooooo yeah, I wait. He said it could be from a UTI that is just not growing on culture, chronic irritation, I could of passed a kidney stone, it may be just some random episode or in rare cases it is cancer. He was honest, he said " I doubt it is cancer but I have been surprised before and I can't speculate until I see in your bladder" I appreciate his honestly but still some scary shiz. Oh and he pretty much said I have diabetes, I have sugar in my urine, he said that also can lead to UTIs, UTI symptoms and kidney and bladder issues, so I don't know. I have been testing my sugars at home and they are high, going to try and call my family dr this morning about that :/
anywho onto better hings, it is Easter Weekend! I am working today and then I am off Monday, going to my parents for the weekend, even though I am feeling less than spectacular I hope I can put on a good front so my mom doesn't suspect anything, she isn't feeling well this week either
So your mom still doesn't know anything about your health concerns? Poor you, poor your mom. Blah. It's cool that your uro dude was straight forward and nice.
Avon, eh? I guess i should start with some kind of skin care routine. I've lasted 30 something years without one, time to put in a little effort.
Much love to you kim, you know my eyeballs are always available for your venting needs. Enjoy the time with your mom this weekend, and remember big deep breaths. The unknown is always the scariest, and you'll have answers soon enough.
thanks girls, no I haven't told my mom or dad or sister, my mom hasn't been doing all that well I don't want to worry her at this point. I will probably talk to my sister about it this weekend, I feel like I need to talk to someone other than my husband about this right now.
So I installed the app...and of course the JM forum doesn't work - I get errors and Im not surprised, paid 2 bucks for nothing...yippee
Yes Kim it seems like you need to talk to someone IRL about it beside DH, so sorry your mom is not feeling well - she got her send round of chemo last week right?
((hugs)) Kim. My eyeballs are also always available for your venting needs as are my fingers for reminding you NOT TO GOOGLE
4 hours left of this shortened tax season for me. Bossman finally got called for his pre-op crap, so it looks like it's just me and the files most of this afternoon. Sounds like I may have to work Sunday afternoon - I know the boss is trying to make it not be so, but with 40 returns still to process before the end of Sunday, I am just not sure it's gonna work like that. Especially with him not here this afternoon. There are several things we need to meet about before he's out of commission for 4 weeks.
Post-Noelle acne here too. What gives? I haven't done anything fancy at this point because it's pretty minimal. Seems that St. Ives scrub and Oil of Olay in the morning, Ponds wipes at night seems to be working for the most part.
If I don't make it back this afternoon, everyone have a great weekend!!

Don't the the crappy ap scare you away from us, Anna!
Kim, have you ever been suspected of having diabetes before (besides in pregnancy?)
I really haven't, although thinking back maybe I have had some slight things, it is hard to say now because my mind is in overdrive and I am over thinking every ache, pain, tingle, etc. diabetes runs high in my family, the fact that I had gestational diabetes increases my risk too, my cousin who is 5 yrs younger than me was recently dx as well, so it isn't a huge shock but is still overwhelming. I am pissed at my body, I am thin, eat decent, work out and this still happens? I was at the store yesterday and there was a really fat guy in front of me buying pie and chips and I found myself angry, like *** this fatty is eating this crap and I am diabetic??? I mean maybe he was diabetic too, how do I know, I hate being bitter and judgemental blah
The ONE day I can sleep in, my uterus hates me and wakes me up in double over kinda cramp form. Happy long weekend to me? Sigh.
Boo to that, my uterus hates me today too!

anywho thank goodness this day is almost over!
Diabetes is in my family and I had GD on my second pregnancy, so I know I'm probably gunna have it someday...*sigh*
Ah, Kim (you know that) type 1 and type 2 diabetes are totally different beasts but I totally get where you're coming from. My wiry, fitness nut gym teacher of an uncle is also diabetic (type 1). It's true that it just doesn't seem fair, to take such good care of yourself only to have your body turn on you like that. Total BS.
Happy Saturday to you all. We have a dinner at my Mom's tonight. Oscar appears to have a fever this morning. Hopefully he can sleep it off between now and then.
