Anyone else afraid to open the "what is this" thread for fear of a gross or TMI picture?? 

I was... until I saw it was @VikingGirl12 and she wouldn't do that  

I'm glad you have faith in me

Until someone said it was you I thought it was going to be a mucus plug 

Speaking of this... Obviously none of the regulars would do this, but we need to have a plan of action mapped out for the first and subsequent drive-by that posts a picture of their mucus plug. Like, I just want to be uber prepared for a consolidated and orchestrated response from the ladies.

Someone should have a gif of a snotty nosed kid licking an electrical outlet at the ready.

Tater tot gigs/jpgs are always the go-to around here.

I just tried to google "gross kid gif's" to see if I could find an appropriate stand-by for the first mucus plug and I made myself gag with some of the pictures. Eww!

First part of glucose test is done. They gave me lemon-lime, and it was cold. So it wasn't too bad, but now my stomach is churning. Waiting for the blood draw though.

Now you guys are keeping me entertained with your talk of mucus plugs and Trump and electrocuted kids....

Has anyone else found that when you go out "drinking" with friends (ie not drinking alcohol but everyone else is) that you also get "drunk" and then "hungover"? I never realized how strong the placebo effect was before, haha. I blame exhaustion for my feelings of light-hearted loopiness last night, and excessive food consumption for how terrible I felt all night and this morning. We went to an all-you-can-eat Brazilian steakhouse last night and I got a bad case of the meat sweats. And was super dehydrated all night and had to keep getting up for water. Whew.

splsmama2016

@Emztron500 I get the "hung over" feeling when my husband drinks, but that's probably because I'm so exhausted from trying to keep
him from getting arrested.. Lol. And the meat sweats are the worst!!

LOL I was looking for a pregnant meme to send to DH regarding a recent convo and found this gem...

I hoping she's just a surrogate.

People will seriously post pictures of their mucus plugs??  I have no idea what it looks like, but that just sounds so hugely disgusting.

Ya or describe them in full. I don't know what's worse, seeing one or getting detailed description of what's falling out of someone's vagina. what it looks like is disgusting 

amangels2

Ick ick ick.  I'm pretty sure seeing my own will be enough to gross me out.  Although my mom's water never broke on it's own, so maybe I won't see it?  

On a side note....does anyone remember where Nickshan posted the directions for how to add a signature photo?  I've looked through a couple threads and can't find it.  I want to participate in this month's challenge.  Thanks!!!

Ha, it's on this thread a few pages back.  Best thing is to click on her name and scroll through her replies until you find it.

@shannonrnbsn I did see that!! I think a trip to australia is in order!

@MeganF08 Yeah, that's pretty bad.  Good choice. 

Also, is anyone else wondering if the girl from a few weeks ago on the third tri board ended up having her baby yesterday? You know, that "Don'tcha wish you had my doctor" girl...

I was thinking about this girl last night and tried to look her up, but I was mobile and not successful in finding out!

She hasn't been on since Feb 19th when she posted the question about when to induce (according to her profile) so I'm afraid we may never know

@Sgoldberg247 That might be for the better anyway...

NicknShan

And my siggy is gone... Where are the sharks?!?

GinnyJ2012

@amangels2 my water broke with DS1 and I never saw my mucus plug, but it didn't break with DS2 and I lost it that time. I almost puked when I saw it. Nasty. 

@sdnybrkYou could always bring a bottle of wine or A Starbucks gift card. Those are my go too gifts. 

CourtJack

ahernandez16  - I can't even quote you b/c your siggy FREAKS me out too much! lol. But I SO want so a Cadbury McFlurry now! I know we get them up here - but maybe just not yet? *drooooooooooooooooool*

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Am I the only one who thinks a Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry sounds disgusting? I haven't seen them up here this year but I know we've had them in the past, and I've never been tempted. Yeck.

The two conversations happening simultaneously here are unfortunate. Can I just ruin everyone's Easter candy experience by planting a mental association between mucus plugs and Creme Eggs?

I don't think it sounds appetizing, either. Give me a shamrock shake any day!

Apparently my FTMness is showing.  I totally thought your mucus plug coming out was what "water breaking" meant.

AAAAAAAAAH!!!! I'm a horrible person! I didn't read closely enough!!! Flame away! I deserve it!

Oh for the love of all things pure and holy. Craving = vanished.

I am really on top of my hormone game today. I just picked a fight with H for not initiating sex enough, for not telling me enough that he finds me attractive and now I'm watching videos of my toddler, when she was a baby, and crying. F*&k sakes.

amangels2

Just have to add, I'm totally checking this board while waiting for a meeting to start.  I feel very awkward with all the maternity photos scrolling through lol.

Nope! The amniotic fluid is still sealed up in the sac regardless of whether the mucus plug has come out. My mucus plug came out a couple days before I went into active labour with my first, and my water was broken by the OB 12 hours into active labour.

MamaNicoleof3

Losing your mucus plug and having your water break are totally different

@emztron500- I have a stomach of steel. I'll still enjoy a cream egg even though I'm sure it'll no w remind me of mucus plugs. 

BabyboyS2016

HENCE WHY YOU SHOULD BECOME A NURSE! I ate cereal out of an emesis basin. We have a weird sense of humor. 

ahernandez16

H and I are waiting for our food at lunch and we're are in a long booth between 3 couples sitting on the same side of the booth instead of across from each other. One of the couples is feeding each other. 

I'm so uncomfortable.

I'm really curious about what a mucus plug looks like now but don't dare to google it...

Just a big blob of bloody snot.

Fun story: my newborn vomited that same bloody snot blob stuff all over her own face and hair in the night a few hours after she was born. What a beautiful moment for both of us.

I have never heard the term "emesis basin" before but I love how fancy a term it is for "puke bucket"

After reading this, I have to confess..... I laughed and PEED MYSELF a little bit!!! It happened!!! Oh no!! Lol. 

DeePaddy24

Oh. My. God. @ahernandez16 Your siggy is going to give me nightmares, lol. 

I am trying to find one but I can't find anything I'm willing to commit to for 31 days. I'll keep searching...why are there SO many awful maternity pics?!
