I'm sitting on the toliet and my toddler comes up to the open bathroom door, "mama, whatcha doing?" "Well, buddy, I'm peeing and maybe pooping. I don't know yet, I need to wait a minute." My toddler starts giggling. "Is that pretty funny?" My toddler giggles again, "yeah!" I'm just thinking he's right. The idea of a pregnant lady being able to poop when she wants to is pretty funny...
This guy I use to have a thing for in, like, middle school has come into work twice (as of today) to have some work done on his vehicle. He looks like he's failing at life, or is as much a stoner today as he was back then. I'm 90% sure he "recognized" me last week but maybe can't place me. Today he's here and walks by my window super slow and creepy like while staring in my office. Dude, I'm not going to be all "hey I remeber you" because you were a total ass once I actually got you to notice me. Really glad I'm wearing a beekeepers veil in my Facebook picture and my married name is not one he'd recognize as DH is not from town originally. He can go ahead and keep creeping.....
@prpl11butterfly buddy doesn't really know how to wipe yet, but he'll ask for a square of toilet paper and then shove it between my legs so it falls in the toilet. He's always so proud. My prenatals make my pee crazy neon yellow so I'm scared he'll see it and wonder what's wrong with mommy's pee, lol. Oh, man, the joys of not being able to pee alone.
My son has recently gotten obsessed with my panty liners. I use cloth ones, and there have been some days with pregnancy that I want them. Well he now grabs one every time I use that bathroom and Pinter it into my underwear, all folded up still. And proceeds to do it with with 5 of them, so I get to fish them all out of my pants when I'm done. It is hilarious though.

DS is 10.5 months so not into potty yet but still comes into the bathroom to open and shut doors and play with the scale and try to dive in the toilet when I’m done and trying to flush. Good to know it only gets better!
We are about to put an offer on a house and I just realized that I have no idea if there is a bathtub in any bathroom other than the massive jacuzzi tub in the master which would be too hard to bathe baby and toddler in anyways. F pregnancy brain for real.
@prpl11butterfly right?!? I mean... I was there less than 48 hours ago. How did did the kids bathroom not make that big of an impression?!? We bathe DS every night.
@spottedginger Double check that crap, we turned down two houses last year that had no tub at all, and both had been recently renovated, but they put in brand new SHOWERS only. Huge PITA. People without kids (which covers a lot of contractors who flip houses) can be super dumb. OK, people in general can be super dumb. Also old people apparently don't like to have to shower in a tub because they don't want to have to step over. So that's also a reason so remove tub. It's frustrating.

@prpl11butterfly well the offer went over before I had that revelation. DH says he is pretty sure there was a tub... But now I am second guessing. All the bathrooms have been renovated and the pics of the online listing are at an angle where you can’t tell. Gah.
@spottedginger I work in real estate, good luck! It seems crazy that there wouldn’t be another tub but who knows. We have a listing right now and I just went over there and realized they have no oven!
PW today: got a call from the pharmacy. So the cash price for that diclegis rx is almost a thousand dollars. My co pay is 70 but with a coupon is $40. Thank you insurance.
We're closing on our new home (new build) and getting a Mini Van this week!! My wallet is hurting, but my heart is singing!! I can't wait to have all that leg room and sliding doors!

@spottedginger holy crap! I got an rx for it but never filled it. That’s nuts. I also got 10 tabs of sublingual zofran which I will fill to keep for sickness non pregnancy related or if I’m absolutely desperate in the next few months. That shits expensive too.
@stothi oh my goodness, the stuff that comes out of kids mouths. The other night I was holding DS in the kitchen and my DH was messing around and poked me in the boob and must have said it, and DS repeated "boob" and then also continued to poke me too.
As I had mentioned in another thread, my DH is home this week, but he's sick. Honestly, I kind of wish he was still out of town since he can be so useless when he's sick. I told him we need to get him on a better health care regimen in general. I bought him some echinacea and I have him take a multi daily, so hopefully the echinacea will help a little. I don't understand how I spend so much contact time with DS and rarely get sick, but DH gets one little piece of snot on him from DS and he's instantly sick. Ugh, trying to summon all of my patience.
All this bathroom talk is cracking me up. The extent of my 20 month old's vocab while I'm (we're) in the bathroom is, "eww, gross," "eww, dirty," and "eww, stinky." Thaaaanks, little one...
I finally got my ramen noodles!!! Omg they were magical. My tummy hasn't been this happy since I got pregnant. I paid the extra penny for oriental flavor. Totally worth it.
@spottedginger i second that- we have been thinking about selling and have been looking- looked at a house- we left- i looked over at DH and said “hey- im not sure i counted 4 bathrooms did you? Did you notice a tub????” The look on his face said it all!!
@stothi in my house we call that the “toilet paper fee.” I can’t go to the bathroom without at least handing over a piece of toilet paper for DS to put in the toilet once I stand up.

Feeing very anxious to be flying for work this week. Every time I go to visit these two clients I come home sick, plus all the airplane germs make me nervous being pregnant. To top it off my ms is consistently bad in the afternoon at a time I will have to be face to face with clients this week. Today it was so bad not even my nausea medicine would help. I do not want to run out of an annual review meeting to be sick. Not to mention I have not told work and that is not the way I want to do it.
@klj0228 I hope everything goes good... I didn't have sickness until I flew the weekend before last. It was triggered when we were taking off and just went downhill from there for several days.
@klj0228 I've had a few meetings with clients when my nausea is really bad. I know it's a little rude to chew gum in meetings but I've found mint gum to be really helpful in those moments.
@smsaulino I wondered how flying went for you. I’ll pack lots of peppermints which seem to help.
@SkilledSailor good call on the gum. I’ve been eating peppermints at home, but was concerned that would be rude. I think I could get away with gum though.
Omg guys. DS usually makes his way to our bed at like 330/4 am. I don't care that much. Obviously I prefer him stay in his own bed (and he does a few nights a week) but it is what it is. Anyway. 230 this morning he comes in, DH pick him up and pops him in between us and he goes "mamma, I'mmm baaaack". It was the cutest thing. Luckily he fell back to sleep quickly cause he definitely sounded wide awake
I grew up in a house without a tub. It’s totally doable. I was bathed in the sink as a baby, and then took showers my whole childhood. I did love the few times we had a sleepover at Grandma’s or stayed at a hotel and got to take a bubble bath, though!
I’m so tired. I’m honestly calculating if it would take longer to wash/dry my hair in the morning, or stop at CVS on the way to work and get more dry shampoo (I’m out). I absolutely can’t shower right now. Too damn tired.
Note to everyone: don’t watch Armeggedon while pregnant.
Also I came up with a brilliant idea. For every woman who is pregnant her partner should get hormone injections that make them feel bloated, exhausted, cry at the drop of a hat, etc. (My husband was legitimately worried about how much I was crying at the end of the movie. He doesn’t get it...)
