Thinking of you @sisimama10 and @kiahsimpson

Sisi, glad you've been discharged from the hospital.  I'm sure it's nice to be home!

my tummy hurts.

we were down to ONE tissue (not one box, one single tissue) which is panic mode here with my mucus issues.

my birth classes start tonight and on the list of things to bring are 3 pillows and a blanket. i'm going to curl up and sleep through it... for $350.

@BIRL they just opened some In N Outs in Dallas area, they are no where near comparison to the real thing. While everything is still made fresh never frozen, they are COATED in grease. Don't get me wrong, still delicious. but they def go in n out lol

Ewwwwwwww! @snmetz7 I am so sorry! That's the anti-In N Out.

So since I got a good look at all organs and extremities today, this is what we are eating tonight.....

Oh yeah, that's raw salmon and tuna and it tastes sooooo good! I used to eat SO much sushi and Japanese food pre-pregnancy. I've missed it!

I wanted in n out so bad a few weeks ago, and I still haven't gotten it our in n outs also are missing the crisscrossed palm trees because palm trees can't survive here

I finally had about half a glass of wine tonight. It was so damn good. I can't wait until April when I can have two or three glasses... or five.

DH has been a complete pill to be around tonight and then wants to get all sweet and loving as soon as he wants some.

Uh no. I will not reward shitty behavior. Have fun in the shower with Handgalina Jolie.

App users- anyone else frequently get a red bar at the top that says no internet connection? I don't get it when I am on mobile safari and I don't have trouble accessing the internet or other apps other than the bump app. It seems to happen more often when I'm at home so I can't figure out if it's an app issue or a phone issue. I have 2 bars of lte service...

Yup. Always get it, and only on the bump app. And then I'm like, "you lie, Bump! You lie!!!"

Hulu keeps showing KFC commercials that feature the hashtag #HowDoYouKFC?

My brain keeps rearranging the last four letters, making it a VERY different question, and I keep answering the question in my head, "Very well, thank you."

I have one of those invisible under the skin zits under one of my nostrils. Every time I scrunch my nose I see stars. Little bastards hurt!!!!! (
As I bitch about this, I remember I have to push out a human soon......never mind

We are in a state of emergency due to a chemical leak into the water supply. All water use for drinking, showering, and laundry is banned. You can only use it to flush the toilet and put out fires. All schools are closed tomorrow and restaurants are shut down, stores are sold out of water and it is like the Zombie Apocolypse - with people fighting over bottled water. 

and I've never, ever been so thirsty in my life. I wish I could drink ALL the wine.

I love coming here with quick questions. Beats making a stupid thread.

So, I want a Boppy - first I registered for a bare one so I can just get a few different slipcovers (I love being able to change up the look and wash them easily if they get dirty), but then I saw one that is already slipcovered with a design I love (click here). I'm wondering, do already-covered Boppies have removable slip covers or are they stitched on? Anyone know? TIA.

Mine was removable and it came with a cover.

@Speechie517 Holy crap!! That is a TERRIBLE situation to be in, pregnant or not! My dear, I hope it ends soon, and that you're able to get water, and that stores aren't opportunist jerks jacking up water prices.

@biggerinreallife: My husband was out of town for work today, so he picked some up on his drive home. It's a really bad situation - about 100k people are affected right now. The leak happened this AM and they only started warning people around 5 pm tonight. I drank tap water all day, so I'm a little worried.

I completely see the same thing.  Their marketing team must be the same as the one that fashioned the billboards for my college when I was going there...slogan was "Moorhead State University:  Size Matters". Not even joking.

Wow, that sounds awful!!  I can imagine how thirsty you must be feeling right now.  Any idea how long the water ban is supposed to last?

@Speechie517 Oh, hon. I'm so sorry. If it were me I'd call my OB, if for no other reason than to calm your worries. I'd be worried too! I'm sure you and your baby will be fine, but man! How terrible that they didn't let people know right away! And you're never thirstier than when you know water is limited. Hang in there hon, I'll be praying it clears up soon.

That KFC commercial sucks. Seriously, who in their right mind doesn't know that KFC serves lunch??!? That chick just makes me angry. She probably spells shit wrong online and takes a lot of selfies for her Twitter, too.

@kendracoleslaw - mine came with a cover and it's removable.

I just had a banana dipped in hot fudge mixed with cookie butter. Take that Baby Center weight tracker.

@kendracoleslaw - My cover was removable too. I bought a spare cover to rotate. I also wrapped the bare pillow in Saran Wrap so when the cover got wet, it wouldn't leak through. I'd just swap covers and wash the dirty one. I think they sell waterproof covers or liners too - that was just my cheapskate trick.

I agree with the liner thing. DS1 would spit up on the Bobby constantly and it was easy to wash just the cover. If I needed to wash the whole Bobby, then I would probably be without it for the next feeding since he was eating every 1.5-2hrs. Mine actually came with a waterproof cover that zips on under the other cover.

They all come off. So get the one you like, then a few slip covers on the side!

They are removable as well.

My husband is a trooper. They're having me stay the night and even though he's been up working since 6 and has to be up to work at 6 tomorrow, he refuses to leave my side.
We still don't know much. My liver enzymes are elevated. It's not going to hurt Aiden. I just have really bad itching and I'm gonna be miserable. They just gave me a Benadryl and they're gonna come back and give me some sleeping medicine. Thank you for all the thoughts and prayers. We will be fine, just itchy!! We will keep everybody updated if anything else happens though!
