I meant to make my H a pie last night, but instead I fell asleep on the couch.  Oops.

And now I'm nauseous.  It's been almost a whole week of feeling better, so why is the nausea back??

I'm sorry about your dream @chaysefaith.  I'm glad the doppler helped calm your mind!

@MrsLaurenandDan‌ when you're at home and put clothes on him are you putting him in underwear or a diaper/pull-up? When we were trying C, we couldn't put her in a pull-up, because she would just be lazy and use it vs going potty. In panties she would go to the potty, because she didn't like here clothes getting wet. We also couldn't use those special training underwear, because they absorbed too much and it didn't bother her enough.

We have always cloth diapered. We have underwear, but he refuses to wear it. He actually asks for a diaper frequently. We are working on building confidence because he is so worried about not having the safety net of the diaper. I'm thinking we may just switch from naked to commando at some point to try to stay away from the diapers.

Also 15w2ma!

I decided to get a Brazilian wax yesterday. It's been a couple of months. I was getting them regularly but we had moved so I was far from the salon I went to. I went yesterday because I just felt gross....fucking OUCH!!!! I read that it hurts more when pregnant because your skin is more sensitive, soooooo true! It burned the rest of the day but I woke up today feeling much better thankfully!! Sorry to gross everyone out this early in the morning.

heh I got a brazilian a week before I delivered my son....best decision I made.  I didn't think it hurt anymore than it normally does but my pain tolerance is kind of effed - I started giving myself my own brazilians at age 17.

No itching or maintenance for weeks while everything was 'angry' looking down there.  

Totally doing it again this time around.

Yep, agree. I tell all my expectant mom friends to make sure to get a wax a week or two before they're due date. Hair down there + stitches = not good.

Waxing gives me more ingrown hairs than shaving.  I tried it for almost a year, and finally realized that it was not getting better, only worse.  Best decision ever.

I haven't been on here all week!  This stupid working thing sucks. Can it just be summer all the time?  And I'd also like to be independently wealthy and not worry about paying bills. the gymnastics gym I work part time at started classes again this week so I'm working two jobs, and I'm EXHAUSTED. Ugh.  I've been trying to read as much as I can, but there are some days I haven't been able to do even that.  I'm so happy for all the great updates though!  

I've had some more bleeding, probably from that stupid SCH I have, so I have another ultrasound on Wednesday.  The doctor thinks it's probably just from over exerting myself and has put me on pelvic rest.  Btw, the lifting restriction makes it interesting to coach gymnastics.  I have my next appt in a week and a half though, so hopefully this a is short lived rest.

@cinderella105 I just wanted to say that I've been thinking of you and hope you are finding the support you need.

Lastly....the R word is never ok. Please don't use it. Thanks.

I really want to do this, but I've never had a wax of any kind so I feel kinda nervous about doing it because of the pain plus I'm a lil bashful and not sure how I feel about having someone down there to wax. I know they are professional and see it all the time so I guess I need to get over it.

Honestly its amazing.  You just feel so much cleaner down there.  Pain is temporary.  Plus it'll be good training for labor.  Look at it that way.  Pain in the vag plus lots of people down in there.  

I normally shave it all off, so ironically, I'd have to let it grow back some just to get the wax. I'm all for a clean feeling. Another reason I wanted to try the Brazilian is because I don't think I'll be able to shave very well once my belly starts getting in the way. I seriously need to get over my fear and just do it.

cinderella105

I was seriously going to be shocked if I was the only one with a problem with the R word. Glad I'm not. Just be on the safe side and don't use it. It's really offensive.

cinderella105

Thanks @createmagic14‌! I'm still kind of in the dark on everything since my initial appt with the therapist was just paperwork. They were supposed to call me yesterday and of course didn't..

And that reminds me, speaking of support, my mom and I haven't been talking much because she favors my brothers and their kids and she can't handle anything negative from me. She expects life to be rainbows and sunshine... Well the other night I was talking to the ex and he mentioned how he's been talking to my mom..... She reached out to him asking how he's doing and hasn't once given me the time of day in about 2 weeks! X( Fuck both of them.

Guyssssssss....I tried searching but am obviously retarded. Can someone please help me find which random thread earlier this week had chilli recipes. I'm making chilli tomorrow and wanted to check out the recipes...whenever I search every board but M15 comes up.

You might want to watch how you use that word. @-)

I obviously meant it in a harmless way. This board does not exactly seem PC. If I offended you then I apologize.

Ok I can't even read on to see if others already responded, so sorry if I'm doubling up on you, but this isn't about being PC. I suggest you do some research. I'm not an incredibly PC person but I don't use words like retarded or gay as synonyms for stupid or what have you. I think you need to reconsider what it means to be PC and realize what you're thinking of is being immature, rude, hurtful, and continuing terms that are harmful an oppressive to groups of people, rather than not being PC.

@cinderella105‌ That's horse shit. I'm sorry...

@chaysefaith‌ I'm sorry for the horrible dream... thank goodness it was only that, but stilll.

My random is that I got some this morning!!! I've been feeling nauseated almost every evening and so haven't given H any this week... but this morning when I woke up I felt pretty good, so he got a surprise wakeup call!

I also got a pumpkin muffin and pumpkin iced coffee at Dunkin Donuts this morning- excellent choices for all you pumpkin fans! Although apparently my golden retriever thought so too, because when I came back from the bathroom, the rest of my pumpkin muffin (about half) was gone... boo.

I got a salted caramel mocha from Starbucks this morning. It was underwhelming.

12 weeks 2ma!

OMG I'm getting so pissed at the Target website. They have carseats on sale and when I try to add the extra base to my cart it kicks the carseat out!  I am debating whether or not to go ahead and buy the carseat though since it almost 30% off.  

ETA  And I can get the britax stroller I want for 40% off original price!  The b-agile is on sale to begin with and there is a 20% code and a $10 off code, plus free shipping!  Hubby just gave me to go ahead to buy it since it's such a great deal.

Shit. That's the one I want, and I have a red card so I get an extra 5% off. The struggle, do I buy it now or hope someone buys it for us...

Sorry about the dream @chaysefaith‌ . Loss dreams are scary and bad on the PgAL brain.
Nothing real random here. Came home from breakfast and my dumb ass dog got spooked apparently and expressed his anal glands (it's gross and stinky) cue gagging...DH had to deal with it...ok maybe I just said I was more gaggy than I was to get out of the clean up..
Now off to DS's football game, the Saturday ritual!! So happy for all the good scans yesterday! Makes me hopeful for my appt Monday!!!

janda426

So I went to H softball tournament and brought Dakota and it was just too damn hot. We weren't even there an hour. I'm so pissed how hot it is when it was cool all summer. It's supposed to be fall now, get the memo September!!!

Oh and I had my first of disturbing dreams last night.... Ex and I were about to have sex and then his mom came in.... And then she was trying to have sex with me while ex was standing back waiting for it to happen. 8-X I woke up feeling pukey. So fucking wrong.

Edited to clarify: If she wasn't his mom and was hot and younger I'd be all for it.... ;;)

starsailorr26

I woke up with a sudden burst of energy and have been cleaning all morning. It feels so good to get things done that I've been neglecting. I also hope this means my energy is returning overall. We're going to the county fair tonight and all I can think of is funnel cake.

@meladoriestar‌ I don't know how you're staying quiet cause I couldn't.

cinderella105

Bahahahaha! I just saw a girl on FB announce her pregnancy with an ultrasound photo saying her man will be the best daddy, and this idiot commented "Are you pregnant?"..... That's like seeing someone post pics of a proposal showing off their ring with their man that has captions saying "he proposed and I said yes!!" and asking "Are you engaged?" LMAO

Hello! All this talk of a Target sale has me wanting to shop.

I went to work out with my friend and breakfast after, DH cleaned the house while I was gone & now we are purging tons of stuff in the guest room (nursery eventually) closet. Feels so good to get in there & toss what we don't need while organizing. First step in the baby prep process

finallyourturn2

@chaysefaith‌ sorry about your dream.

@meowkitten‌ I don't have either dunkin donuts or KK here, but you just gave me the most intense craving to go to the donut shop down the road (even if it is a little ghetto)

For my randomness of the day I am going to get a facial. I am thinking the hormonal acne that plagued my face is gone and it is time to glow.

Joon+

My random today is pretty AWish. This morning, I woke up to DH kissing my forehead and asking if he could get me anything. I joked "glazed donuts," stretched and fell back asleep. 15 minutes later I awoke again to my favourite donuts from a local grocery store and a fruit smoothie. I think I might keep him.

Sorry for my crappy quote box. But just wanted to throw in that YES once belly gets in the way, shaving is a joke. So is peeing in a cup at your weekly doctor appointments. And so is even SEEING your vag. It is like it disappeared.

Going to tea with MIL and her SIL. Sitting here quietly keeping my mouth shut as they discuss immigration, Katrina killing off the bad element being maybe a good thing, and letting the gangs "sort each other out" (aka kill each other off). Why can't I have booze in my tea?!

Oh FFS. I hope the tea is good at least.

My H just went to get me Dunkin Donuts. He's bringing me back a few chocolate frosted. I'm so flippin' excited!

And I think tomorrow we're taking DD apple picking which I'm thrilled for. I think she'll really like it, they even have some goats you can feed and a few other fun activities for kids. Plus they sell the most amazing cider donuts made fresh right there....ok, I have to stop thinking with my stomach!

We have a orchard near that makes apple cider donuts. Sooo good! There's a creamery nearby that uses their donuts in one of their ice cream flavors. So amazing

Chili is in the slow cooker. My team comes on at 7:30. Nap time!! The exhaustion is ridiculous. Oh well.

I'm back and trying to catch up!! I've been MIA since Tuesday (I think) because I started working at my 2nd job again for some extra baby money and its helping me sleep so much better which is a plus, too! I hope everyone has been doing great and bare with me while I catch up!

Last night I had a dream I gave birth (naturally, not out of my leg or anything) to a healthy baby boy and then SO named him Christopher Allen (Christopher was his brother's name and Allen is SO's middle name). He was amazing. I am so excited!

Guise, I've been sick since Tuesday. I forgot to start my own thread asking you what I should do even though my OB told me to just rest, take some medicine and wait it out.

Maybe next time I'll remember to ask. I'm actually starting to feel a little better today.

It has been the first day since the netipot has been able to flow through both nostrils! Woo hoo!!!

Glad you're feeling better!  Neti pots are amazing.  It is getting me through ragweed season!

Thanks, me too!

My H and I love the Neti pot so much! I was getting so frustrated this week when I was too stuffed up for it to actually work. When it does work though it's amazing! I don't know how I lived without it before I met my H!

Edited for spelling and quote fail

I have never had a Brazilian wax, but I have been seriously considering it since that area will be getting a lot of attention in the coming months, plus I never thought about the stitches thing.

@etoille‌ I never used the sitz bath but I was addicted to that bottle they give out for cleaning. I carried that thing in my purse for about 2 months!

Mine did double duty- I carried it forever in the diaper bag to wet my cloth wipes!

My DH is home for a 3 day weekend and my our daughter is in Daddy heaven. He took us to the Zoo today and did everything she wanted. I just adore watching them together. We don't get lots of time with him so we soak it up when we do. AW warning- posting a pic of them from today. He was teaching her about the animals.

I am irrationally annoyed at the baby shower pics my cousin is posting. She has a 4yr old son, same husband, and she posted pictures of her shower invite, with registry info. Off to registry stalk and see what she registered for.

I'm still trying to decide when to announce. I might do it next Sunday at 13 weeks. But I made my announcement today and I love it!
