My kid bit it at daycare playing outside. She doesn't let a few bumps slow her down as she was back outside playing as soon as they cleaned her up. DH and I share the same brain…we both said we were glad pictures were this past Sunday and not coming up this weekend.
Aww poor W but glad she has a smile on her face! What a cutie!
@ChickenOnSunday Aww, but she's somehow still so adorable even with the bumps & bruises!
I think I just discovered something else that grosses me out, as per today's GTKY: the term "making love" -- I'm sure it was originally a sweet, intimate phrase, but I feel like it's evolved so much into something that only gross people say when they're trying to be gross. I just came across (for work!) a twitter account for a guy whose last name is Lovell, and his account is MakingLovell and I audibly EWWWWWWWWWW-ed out loud. Could. Not. Help. It.

@toadandbug12 WTF?! Every day I lose more and more faith in humanity. WHY would anyone ever think that is ok to say to you?? I hope you said "yeah, yours too" back.
Ugh, I'm too polite to say something well deserved such as that. It's so mind boggling how many people think they can comment on your body just because you are pregnant! Like, if I was gaining weight because I was depressed, would you be commenting on my face fat A-hole?!

I have finally started gaining weight and my coworker goes, yeah, your face is so round now, not you just need to gain in the belly. WHAT?! why would anyone comment on face fatness. you think I cant see it in a mirror?

@Alygohome Ugh! Seriously! Like being uncomfortable in my larger, now unfamiliar body isn't enough, I need *you* to tell me specifically in case I forgot. It was worse because I honestly didn't think my face was any fatter, and now I'm worried my perception is all off.

It probably isn't off, she is probably just a bitch.
@jennjilljoite Aww at least give us the other thread title? Pretty please?
Threaten to post more spider gifs.
Via PM only!
You want me to send you gifs of spiders by PM? You are a kinky lady.
Ahhhhh no ( I don't know who the other person is so that would not even help.
The other one is a rare treat but they often dismiss science and scientific based research. Let's just assume that I dislike everyone who doesn't believe science and thinks the government is out to get them.
But that doesn't really narrow it down...at least amongst the rando posters. /pouts
It's a regular rando. Someone who usually only pops in to tell us we're all wrong but never joins in on the spam. It's not as strong of a dislike as the SS that everyone knows about.
I know exactly who you're talking about and I 100% agree. The first time I side eyed her was when she posted on the natural birth board all this total bullshit "facts" about why she was considering not doing an a/s. They were all like, no, you're stupid, and stop perpetuating the BS.
@lizzybean The pics of Blake Lively made me feel TERRIBLE about myself (especially after that coworker comment this morning). Basically I had a very low self esteem day. I LOVE Blake Lively, always have. She is so amazingly gorgeous and just seems so level headed.
@kefttsc I got the kiinde twist system where you pump into the bags (they have screw tops and adapters for different pumps), then you can freeze, then the bags can be defrosted and twisted straight into the bottle. The system "grows" with the kid (the bags are dishwasher safe) and can later be used to make those fruit squeeze things. The starter set was like $100 at buy buy baby but zulily had it for $50 a few weeks ago and I snagged it. Hope that helps
@kefttsc you're ahead of where I was a few months before DS was born if it helps I pumped into bottles (because I am not the most coordinated of people and I spilled when I pumped directly into bags). I just poured into bags and refrigerated/froze.
You got it though.
Me too. They expect you to be way too coordinated to pump directly into the bags. I tried it once and was like.... "NOPE"
My doctor decided to test me early because of some issues I brought up at my appointment Friday. Apparently the glucose test didn't go to well and was a lot higher than it should have been. Alot. So Tomorrow I get to go and take the 3 hour test
So I'm really bummed and worried. I know GD is doable but I think my mom had that and then developed toxemia with me later on. So this really concerns me. I'm also worried this increases my chances of a c-section.
To add to this I don't feel comfortable with not eating all day and having my blood taken 3 times. So I asked MIL if she can drive me to and drop me off and then pick me up later when I'm done. Ohh no shes going to go with me and wait. WTF I was looking forward to some quite kindle time.

PSA for FTM, if you receive or buy pajamas that have a million buttons, return them and find zippers. I'm going through all DD's old clothes for a sale and I can't tell you how many buttons I did today and it brought back all the frustration of having a wiggly baby while trying to snap them only to get to the last one and there's no match so you have to start over. Zippers!! Don't forget!
I actually prefer snaps. It's easier to change their diapers without getting cold from being unzipped from head to toe. Although DH can not for the life of him figure out all the snaps. I still get handed DS to snap his butt up. Haha.
I'm finally done for the day. Oh my god you guys I'm glad I have a doctors appointment. I picked up a chair today and had the worst BH contraction I've ever had. Like almost brought me to my knees. The chair was MAYBE 5lbs.. Maybe I was just doing too much all day? who knows, but then after I went to the bathroom and definitely noticed a considerable amount of discharge that I don't typically have. Blah, but I have an early appointment tomorrow and an ultrasound so I'm gonna put my feet up and rest tonight and then talk to them tomorrow. I don't have time for this.

@psychobutthead sorry for the news, hopefully the next test goes well!
I had my GD test today. This was all fine and good until I get called in by some random midwife who then informs me that shes my new midwife...say what?! I get that sometimes adjustments have to be made or whatever but why am I finding out at the last min. I was so happy to get the same midwife team that delivered DD, but I guess it wasn't meant to be. Anyway she was very nice and friendly but now I still have to meet my 2nd midwife. Not the end of the world but very frustrating.
@psychobutthead are you able to make the appointment for first thing in the morning? That way you'd be fasting while you're asleep and throughout testing instead of going all day without eating for an afternoon appointment. GL either way...the test is not as bad as it seems!
I'll probably be able to get there at 7:30 ish for the testing. The only problem is when I go too long without eating I feel sick and like I'm going to pass out. So I don't see tomorrow being a good day.

I started noticing my extra face and neck fat yesterday, today I had to change maternity pants because I'm so freaking wide and I'm unhappy with that. DH said the perfect thing though "you look as beautiful as the day I married you, the day I fell in love with you and the day I met you".

@AshleySparkle720 definitely get lots of rest and lots of water. Keep us updated, please - we've had enough going on in here this week to make us all a little scared.
@psychobutthead FX your test goes well tomorrow! Sorry you won't have some peaceful "me" time.
@AshleySparkle720 Yikes hope your doc appt goes well tomorrow! Like PPs said, please rest and drink lots of water. I didn't sleep well at all last night due to the recent F15 sadness. Definitely want you and LO to be okay!!
I plan to convince my husband to get this for Audrey's nursery. The walls are dark green, dark purple curtains, and green, white and purple bedding. I think it will brighten things up a little bit (we are unable to paint due to being renters).
In our last house we put up a cute daisy wallpaper border in Ella's nursery but we are NOT dealing with that nightmare again.
@jennjilljoite I'm lost on who we were talking about and I feel like a semi regular. I'm going to actually have to log onto an actual computer and lurk around
@willvilljill I want raspberry toaster strudels for my pre-bedtime snack. I guess I'll just have to settle for half a bag of dark chocolate sea salt grahams. Sigh.

@ckimberley14 that hardly sounds like settling! I found relief in dark chocolate-covered almonds... but tomorrow, I'll be back on the hunt for toaster strudels (and it sounds like you will be, too)!
But but, when you want flaky pastries with tart fruit filling and topped with yummy icing, grahams just don't cut it.
