@aviola329 Hope you find it. I have had moments like that. Freaked the fuck out!!

I'm so tired of my mom judging my parenting. I've been an emotional wreck all day for no real reason and as I'm trying to talk to her about it she keeps interrupting me and asking if I took out on DD. No mom no I did not. Not stop fucking asking. Always nice to know your mother doesn't think you can parent. Good thing DH is on his way home.

My mom does stuff like that too. Drives me insane and makes me feel like a little kid. Annoying.

That sounds like my mom. Drives me nuts.

@aviola329 yikes! Fx you find it! I "lost"my necklace the other day. I panicked and looked everywhere... It was in my bra.

@dani I'm so in love with your mirror.

My mom has been so passive aggressive about our decision to have the "paci fairy" come next week. She thinks he's too young to give it up (he's 2.5) and continues to say things like- "that poor child...are you sure...why do you care so much...he's going to be so sad" I want to throat punch her. Yes I realize he will e sad but he is not too young, many would say he is too old to have one still. No matter my reasons they are MY reasons and I'm the damn mother!

What is it about the grandma instinct that makes them think they can tell you how to raise your kid?! Ugh!

We are quickly running out of other BMBs to stalk for birth stories. Our time is coming...  @-)

I'm sooooo tempted to put a second humidifier on my registry for my SO and I. My bedroom was so dry last night I slept with a wet paper towel over my nose so it didn't burn when I breathed.

Wow, it seems like we might have a few more twin births already. T&P's to the mamas/babies and @katiegummow - keep your legs crossed or something!

Wait - did I miss something going in with Katie? Or is that just because of the twin trend going on today?

Just the twin trend going on. She's the only twin mama I could think of on the RTT.

Seriously I was thinking the same thing. That's why I am semi steering clear of the bump tonight, anxiety before bed is no fun. Prayers go out to those mommies and babies.

@aviola329 - I really hope you find it soon

My husband doesn't even buy me jewelry because I lose everything. My wedding ring was pretty cheap and we're both actually shocked that I still haven't permanently lost it in the past 10 yaers. I've "lost" it many times, but it's always seemed to turn up again. I hope this is the case for you too.

danamarie421

@aviola329 I hope you find it soon! Sending positive vibes your way!!!

I'm so upset. Been retracing my steps all night and it's no where to be found. I don't know if a client picked it up or if it's locked in a county vehicle until I can look Monday. These are the two most sentimental things my husband has ever given me and I'm heartbroken. I can't remember if the ring is insured, but even if it's replaced it's not the same thing. And I know the necklace wasn't. I'm sick to my stomach over this and don't know what to tell my husband when he gets home (

do you have homeowners/renters insurance? not that it helps but the  necklace and ring should be covered under that. I hope you find it

Yes please! Do I get a giant cowboy hat?

I think that can be arranged!

Bluebird2318

@aviola329 I'm so sorry. I lost the first necklace DH ever gave me (a cute little sapphire one that he gave me the first night we met in person) a couple years ago. I never found it and I still hate to think of the fact that I lost it. Technically it was a replacement because the chain broke and the jewelers exchanged the entire necklace, but it was still heartbreaking. I can only imagine losing your wedding ring is that much worse. I sincerely hope you find it!

On another note, it's very bittersweet knowing my due date was this week. I was sad for a few days but then I decided to stop and be thankful that I have one due in April.

((Hugs!))
Mine was this past week too. I understand the feeling.

I need to seriously vent. My OB's office called today to let me know that I failed 2 out of the 4 blood draws for the 3 hour fasting glucose test. So it means I am borderline GD. They want me to test my sugars 4 times a day. I am on blood thinners 2 times a day. My blood is super thin from the blood thinners. After my injections I am pouring blood from that tiny needle. I am not going to test 4 times a day since I am "borderline". I am not a damn pin cushion. I love this baby and will do anything to get him here. But come on! I just need a dang break. I keep getting road blocks thrown at me from every angle. Baby is also breech so my chances of getting my VBAC are rapidly going out the window. I am sorry I have been a Debbie downer on here lately. I have no one to talk to that understands all of this. I am getting to the end of my rope and I am scared.

Hang in there!! Try doing some research on natural ways to control GD if you are only borderline. Also, there are exercises you can do to help flip baby- who still has plenty if time to change positions!!!

Medic99

Thank you @pineconey. I am just so overwhelmed with everything. I really hope he flips. With my luck he won't . I know that is a bad way to think. I gotta pull myself out of this.

Cheer up~! Being borderline I am sure you can easily control your sugars just by being careful what you eat. My sister is on blood thinners and was her entire last pregnancy and as much as it sucks she has a beautiful, smart and wonderful 5 year old to show for it! As for the flipping part, I have heard multiple stories of babies turning, even at the last minute so don't fret about that just yet! He still has plenty of time to realize which way is up! So buck up buckaroo! No reason to fully fall into doom and gloom just yet!

. I know this will all pay off it just sucks earning the reward. I guess I am getting depressed over everything. I don't like it. Dang hormones are not helping either. I am thankful that all this happened with my last pregnancy instead of my first or I would only have one child. I told my H that if I ever complain about not having any more kids that he needs to remind me of what I am going through. Time to out my big girl panties on. Thanks for letting me vent. I think I need a good cry in a warm bath and I will be good.

@aviola329 I'm glad it was found!

So my friend is taking me to breakfast this morning and even though I'm not a breakfast person I'm really looking foreword to it!

scarles

@aviola329 so glad your ring and necklace are both safe!! Sorry you were so worried all day!

I think our lube is causing me some irritation in my lady parts. I used to feel a little bit of discomfort in the past after sex but I thought it was just me being sore. Well, we used the lube yesterday for the first time in a while and I'm back to that sore feeling again. Does anyone have any lube they like for sensitive skin? This one is silicone based so maybe I should buy the water based? 

Mamamonzo

The past few winters have been pretty tame here in MI with maybe one big storm. I can't remember the last 'white Christmas' we had before this year. This winter totally BLOWS balls. DH's car is stuck in the driveway. I want breakfast and a pedicure... He better get this shit figured out. Winter makes me crabby! @snmetz7 I'm moving to TX!!

snmetz7

@mamamonzo DO IT! Then we can be besties irl

eireyes

Guess who got rear ended on the way to our Labor and Delivery class? This guy! We're all Ok, just got the crap scared out of us.

At least we have a good excuse to be late now!

@J&NL try coconut oil

danamarie421

I really feel like going shopping today, but I should really stay home and clean the house.... Hmmmm, decisions, decisions.....

Bluebird2318

@aviola329 Sounds like something DH would do! I am glad you have it back!

@mamamonzo If you are going to TX, take me with you! This weather is for the birds. DH and I have never paid extra for professional movers before even when he moved from Iowa to MI, but this time? Yep.

Let's have share time... I know this sounds like a joke, but it's not.  This actually seriously happened to me today.

So this morning at work a boy that is very recently 12 years old turned and goes "I know how you snort cocaine."  And a coworker goes "what?!" thinking he heard him wrong...  He says "yeah, you make a line, take a dollar bill and snort it.  I saw it on Eastbound and Down." 


[-(

And in case that's not bad enough, his 4 year old brother said the n-word today too. 

Just let that sink in for awhile.. Some A+ parenting of the year right there. 

I'll see you that and raise you a 13 year old smashing smarties, spreading them in a line on his desk and snorting them.

During the big standardized test.

And the kindergartner who, first day of school, we caught teaching the other kids how to roll a joint.

I work at the best places.

I'm the other twin mama on here. We seem to be dropping like flies. Ahhhh

Professional movers are the only way to go we used a local company, like 3 men movers or something this last time. And shiitttt... They had loaded up my old house and unloaded into the new house within 4maybe 5 hours? We had a lot of big stuff and it was amazing. I will never move myself ever again!

Sadly I will never experience the pleasure of professional movers. DH used to be one. He's moved us three times with little help. He's awesome at it, but just once I would like to not have to do the work. "No one can do it as good as I can. I won't damage our stuff"

The roads here are terrible. So now DD and I have to sit here all day while DH and his dad work on baby's room. Ugh. I've been so whiny the past 2 days.

Also all the other twin mamas, Katie and MegJ, y'all just go ahead and put yourselves on bed rest for just in case purposes!

Headed to costco today! Woohoo! Lol, You know you're old when.... A trip to Costco is exciting.

I hear you.  We might go out to pick up an electric can opener.  I'm irrationally excited about it.

Just to let everyone know Fri-sun I am on mobile (that I hate) and I respond to all of you in my head!

@aviola329 I am SO glad your hubby had it!!! What a relief. @medic99 I am sorry. That's the last thing you want to add to your plate.
