Worked on random projects, had our glider delivered and got into a fight with my DH about cutting vs. Snapping off the ends of asparagus. Stupid argument. Must be labor??

So do you cut or snap off the ends of the asparagus?  Inquiring minds want to know!

Ohhh. I snap. I think it's the only way to avoid the woody parts! They naturally snap where they want! He just lopped an inch off all of them. Who wants to eat woody asparagus?!? I did eventually get it together--but there was snapping and throwing of asparagus around our kitchen. Wish I had video of him doing it.

Yep, snapping is the way to go.  Your DH is wrong

@honeyzoo snap that asparagus!

I know that House Hunters is kind of fake, but seriously people on that show are so stupid. Who the hell hates hardwood floors? Get a fucking area rug, morons and quit your whining. And yet, I can't stop watching.

I can't stop watching either!  There was one guy that was upset if he didn't see a ceiling fan in the bedrooms.  Like he didn't know he could actually buy one and put it in himself!

I keep getting ads for proactive on my mobile. Isn't that a little inappropriate for pregnant chicks?

PS nice acidkeo is gone. Narky sarcastic avidkeo is here to stay!

Thank you boobs for soaking my shirt last night. I knew it was coming but some warning would have been nice so I could have prepared.

Congrats BEES!!!!!

Opinions needed ladies....

I need to get my DD (3 years old) outside today but I am weary of having my 4 day old outside. The weather is in the high 70's here. Pollen is bad here, but the 3 yr old is going stir crazy which is making me crazy!

Congrats, @Bees!

Congratulations @Bees!

What's really humorous about all of this is that we are being blamed but she cause a huge stir on F14 and M14. Yet because we didn't want her here either we are the bitches. She got to pushy, people rightfully got annoyed and turned off so they told her to leave. I don't understand the butthurt over this but she needs to get over the fact that you wont be liked everywhere you go.

I hate you. I'm excited that we have had weather in the 40's

But yeah I'd go outside

Holy postpartum hormones, Batman! I was nursing DD this morning and a lovely acoustic version of The Postal Service's "Such Great Heights" came on the radio= a very long ugly cry for mama while sobbing to DH about how much I love her and him and everyone and everything. Poor dude was prepped on looking out for PPD, but he sure was unprepared for happy meltdowns!

...The daily struggle between staying in bed where it's warm and cozy or getting up for breakfast because I'm starving. Food wins again :-<

Breakfast is definitely a motivator for me to get out of bed on weekends!

Congratulations @bees!!!

Go outside @natpirt‌

So I'll be 10 months pregnant tomorrow and my baby doesn't seem to care

I promised I'd be the DD for DH's bar crawl that happens this time of year every year. Bar crawl was last night, and everyone there was crazy impressed that I was still up and raring to go at 1:00am. I actually enjoyed myself immensely, and a couple of our friends were laughing that having a baby on bar crawl would be an epic first.

DH got trashed, and I had to threaten to kill him (multiple times) if he tried to have drunk sex with me. My rib cage wouldn't have been able to take it after getting in and out of his car all night, and my poor crotch is just super ragey right now.

This made me think of all the drive-by frustration going on here lately. Sorry if it's upside-down or something, yay mobile.

The Victoria Secret swim catalogue came yesterday, I found it in recycling this morning and asked DH how it got there. He said "well I knew it would make you stabby right now so I just took care of it, I'm making banana pancakes this morning so grab some coffee it's made"

I love that man :x

@beeseverywhere, baby bees is the cutest little pie. Give her all the kisses for me

Today is our EDD! Is it strange that I'm kinda sad I've never reached my due date with either of my kids? The mastitis has cleared up for the most part and I was able to shave without being in pain or uncomfortable. I'll say that's a win!

Just doing a little AW..... my little helper!!!

Question for the taller ladies like myself (I'm 5'10"): when baby dropped did your belly seem smaller? I THINK LO dropped last night. When I got up this morning my belly looked smaller than yesterday.

I'm not even that tall (5'6") but I feel like the same thing happened to me. Or if not smaller my belly is more compact, if that makes sense.

It does make sense. Compact is a good description. Even my bf noticed it

ETA: I specified taller because my belly has pretty much looked small this whole pregnancy because my torso is so long.

Am i the only one irrationally irritated that Meghan Fox is who they picked to play April O'Neil in the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles??

Really chaps my ass.. [-(

Watching HGTV makes me stabby. People have the worst taste and I hate when people ruin houses. I should save this for UO but I don't care for travertine or granite. Its fucking dated and boring.

Hot coffee in the toilet with a towel over your lap, to induce labor??? GTFO!

DH and I went to the movies this morning at a theater we don't normally go to. They had recliners for chairs!!! It was so cool! How did I miss this! Life changing!

I was just saying I saw it on another pregnancy app thread if someone actually tries it then they obviously have other issues apart from burned lady bits!

So according to my original due date (and the fact that baby is measuring about a week ahead of schedule), I'm 38 weeks today and incredibly uncomfortable. Spent the wedding either hobbling around on my too-tight flats or sitting and watching my friends dance. Which was fine, until I spotted the other preggo who is due two weeks after me. Wearing high heeled boots and a tight dress, dancing the night away. SO. JEALOUS!!!! Bahhh why can't I be THAT pregnant girl instead of the one breaking a sweat during a slow dance, feeling her feet swell, with incredibly amount of groin and back pain? I also feel guilty for having Advil in a moment of weakness last night after asking about 10 people if they had Tylenol. A one-off dose won't be detrimental this late in the game, right?
