It is HOT HOT HOT. Everyone hanging in there?? How are you staying cool?!!

I am sorry you are hot Kate...I am certainly glad that I had Rayanne before it got super hot. I'm not sure I could handle it. It's funny, we have the AC 4 degrees warmer than we did when I was prego. I hope you are finding ways to stay cool. AC is nice, but popsicles help too!!

We're finally starting to get some decent summer weather here! Basically I'm doing what I do every year - hanging out in the basement at home. Drink lots of fluids. At night DH & I usually sleep in separate rooms. I have a fan in the bedroom that I use to cool the room off. At work it's no problem 'cause our building is air conditioned. Oh - and for dinner we usually BBQ so we don't have to heat up the house.

MommyBeth · #4 June 27th, 2010, 03:33 PM

Doing my usual thing...hanging out in front of the computer. On extremely hot days I bring the box fan from the bedroom in here. Drinking lots and lots of water. I also had to give up and put a sheet behind the curtains in the computer room. The windows in our bedroom face the east, and the windows in the living room, baby's room, guest room, and computer room face the west. So some days its brutally hot in those rooms, but a sheet makes a 20 degree difference quickly!

Staying indoors as much as possible. I'm 5 days overdue and uncomfortable and the heat doesn't help.

I hate to brag.....BUT it's been in the 50's here for quite some time. Looks like we're going to have a cool summer (not that it ever gets above 70) and I am so grateful for that!

jensma · #7 June 27th, 2010, 05:35 PM

I'd kill for that right now Dawn!! OMG i thought I was gonna pass out in walmart today...the whole time i am thinking...the kid hates shopping already. But we got drive thru for dinner and B unloaded the groceries thankfully!! Such a sweet boy!

I try and stay inside all of the time, i have LOTS of popsicles and drink cold stuff all day. Its just still miserable...but if we can beat the heat we can get to the babies!!

Karly, hope that baby comes out soon, i feel for ya!!

I'm newly preggo so the heat doesn't bother me. Nausea isn't fun though.

tiffanys · #9 June 27th, 2010, 08:23 PM

The heat is HORRIBLE here! I'm in Florida and its been over 100 degrees! I literally keep the A/C on 72 and I still can't stay cool! I'm drinking tons of water and eating lots of popsicles though! And I try to stay indoors as much as possible!

samspain · #10 June 28th, 2010, 02:39 AM

Its over 100� here all day everyday, I am sort of used to it now!! We recently moved to another town, and here it cools off at night, its bliss, I even sleep with a sheet and no fan!!

Not looking forward to August though!

LindsLuvsSi · #11 June 28th, 2010, 02:47 AM

The heat is miserable when you don't have a/c!!!!!

I'm so uncomfortable and this heat, these awful braxton hicks stink- I barely can do anything.

hearts.0nfire · #12 June 28th, 2010, 07:33 AM

I've been hiding indoors for the most part since it's in the 90's almost every day.

baby:mama · #13 June 28th, 2010, 07:49 AM

I have turned into a hermit. We have the thermostat set on 72 and I keep the blinds closed to keep the heat out. But for some reason today I can't stop cleaning!! Nesting is starting early

Cheryl_W · #14 June 28th, 2010, 11:58 AM

When it DID get hot, I spent a lot of time outside in the breeze with a little mister-thingy keeping me cool... And of course, we have the pool to dip in when it gets scorching!

Of course, it is only 57 here right now... Stupid weather decided to go for a cr@p and rain constantly. *sigh* sometimes it isn't so nice living on the "Wet Coast"... I'm in my third trimester and wearing a sweater in June! This should not be happening!

Oh well, I'm sure I'll get my fair share of hot weather - we'll get a heat wave right before she comes! And our heat waves are in the high 90's to low 100's, so it should be fun. Especially without AC...

jensma · #15 June 28th, 2010, 12:13 PM

yep its been in the high 90s low 100s for a while here now. It cooled down to 85 last week for a few hours though, that was nice!

amazing_love · #16 June 28th, 2010, 12:25 PM

Sorry you all have to deal with such hot weather!! I know i would do horrible in the summer if preggo because i'm such a baby about heat!

Karly, i hope your LO decides to come soon!!

Dawn, i'm officially considering moving to Alaska!

LOL.

pthree · #17 June 28th, 2010, 07:27 PM

I'm a teacher on summer vacation, so I've been holed up inside my house as much as possible

It's too freaking hot outside!! I've been utilizing the "new and expecting mothers" parking spots - not because I get tired walking, but because walking in that heat makes me scared that I'm going to keel over!

*Mommy2Camden* · #18 June 29th, 2010, 06:30 AM

Hope you're all staying cool this Summer!!!!! I can't wait for the next "batch" of babies to arrive!!

bliss · #19 June 29th, 2010, 09:58 AM

I'm trying to stay inside under the AC as much as possible... I'm also starting to feel nausea mixed with extreme hunger early in the mornings and at random times throughout the day, which I'm so happy about!

Still having the stop and go bleeding/spotting, which I'm not happy about at all... Going for another u/s on July 5th to hopefully hear a heart beat! *FX*

JessMitch · #20 June 29th, 2010, 02:57 PM

It's sooo hot!! The past few days have been just about unbearable! I sit in front of the AC and at night i'm still sweating with our bedroom AC at 64!!! I love to be cold and apparently need to move to canada or alaska!
