Oh man, stretch marks on the legs would suuuuuck. @paytonpedro I only have a few around my belly button but I can see them starting to peek out already. Although, I don't have the line like I did last time (linea nigra?). Strange. However, I have a cluster of spider veins on the back of one leg that have already gotten way worse. Ugh...not looking forward to getting those removed later.
@Kenya715 They’re up by my underwear in the front and generally hidden by shorts, but still annoying and hit you right in the self esteem. Lol.
I did some further research and I’m thinking what I’m feeling is SPD. I remember hearing about it my last pregnancy but I definitely didn’t have it. Has anyone else had this? Did it go away after pregnancy?
I think the dark line showed up later in pregnancy for me. My butt is definitely getting bigger so I’m sure those stretch marks will reappear.
Ugh so as usual it was my turn to sleep in and it didn’t happen. DH has no routine with DS who unfortunately always wake around 6 am. So I’m laying in bed to a crying toddler on the other side because who knows what’s happening. Maybe I’ll sleep tomorrow.

We have fallen into a routine (good or bad who knows) , my husband always is awake early so he goes downstairs and has his time and when Sloan wakes up - usually 6- she gets in bed with me for about 1 hour and watches my phone. Then she gets up and goes downstairs and I sleep for another hour. It’s heaven!
@elizabethrn87 that routine sounds fabulous. Although I am the one who gets up early to have my alone time so DS would have to go to DH and hang out in there for this to be super fabulous for us. I am incapable of sleeping in most of the time, I wake up and just lay there bored.
@SmashJam that sounds nice! Unfortunately DS is the type to bother me vs DH if we are sleeping and he’s just there awake. He’ll poke my face or put his right in front of mind lol. I get up in the middle of the night and my body won’t let me sleep in later than 7. Hence why i end up falling asleep around 8pm.
I also tried to sleep in this morning. My kid would not stop crying for some weird reason and only mommy could make it better apparently. Ugh better luck tomorrow.
Ugh so my PayPal account got hacked, and the hacker transfered $1,000 from my bank account into my PayPal account...I am so confused on what their ultimate goal was, I guess they were going to then transfer it from my PayPal to their own PayPal? But how would they not think they were going to get caught? Oh they also changed the language on my account to Spanish so when I logged in (after seeing a $1,000 charge on my bank account to PayPal even though I haven't used PayPal in years), I couldn't even read anything! The part that really confuses me is how they changed my account language to Spanish and transferred $1,000 from my bank without me ever getting an email notification. The money hadn't even hit my PayPal account yet and I disputed the charge with my bank so I'm hoping get it back, but now we have to open a new bank account on Monday and change alllll our automatic payments and direct deposit. Such a pain in the ass and my husband has to leave work to do that so he'll earn less money. And he hasn't been able to work all weekend because the restaurant he's working at has been closed due to power outage, because this storm knocked out power all over town and not a single utility truck has stepped foot into our town in the 24 hours + since to do anything.
i seriously feel like the universe is just taking a dump all over us lately. Excuse my language.
@zande2016 where about are you?! I’m in south east MA and most everyone I know lost power from this storm and even some of our neighbors but we didn’t! So grateful because it is the worst to not have power! Also your hacking situation must be so frustrating! So wrong that people can do that to another person
this weekend marks the first weekend my husband and I are going to switch off sleeping in... my turn starts tomorrow but I’m a really light sleeper and I’ll initially wake up to DD waking up. Also my BIL and SIL are staying over because they lost power and my BIL is naturally a loud person so I feel like he’ll wake me up if he gets up early. Trying to catch up on sleep before this newborn arrives!
@julianne0 in in New York. It was a weird storm, we got hit really bad but just a couple miles made a big difference for this storm. The sleeping in thing never seems to work for me because the second my son makes a peep I'm instantly awake and I have to fully wake up and shake my husband several times to get him to get up. I usually just wait for his nap and go back to sleep then.
Say hello to my parent's new dog, Chubbs...a pint sized aussie mixed with corgie or doxie. He has been following my dog around since he's been home. It's too cute to see them together.
@paytonpedro I’ve had SPD since about week 14 (thanks twins!) and it’s horrible. It is incredibly painful to walk, never mind do anything that involves lifting one leg at a time. I’m a FTM but I sincerely hope it goes away after birth because as someone who lives in Manhattan and regularly walked about 5 miles a day just living my life pre-pregnancy I am getting really sick of having to take cars whenever I want to go somewhere!
I’m fearing a uti or something. My back right side has been hurting really bad this morning. I don’t have any of the usual uti pain other than lots of pain. No appendix either. Took Tylenol and tired a heating pad with some resting. If it doesn’t go away or improve in the next hour I’ll probably go to urgent care. It hurts no matter my position and nothing makes it better so far. Ugh why do i keep getting these random pains before my trip on Tuesday?!
@paytonpedro@devilcat139 I have SPD and did in my last pregnancy too. It is the absolute worst. It gets worse as the pregnancy progresses so we have that to look forward to. Turning over in bed hurts already and will become excruciating if this time is like the last. Putting on pants while standing will become impossible. My doctor says some people find a maternity support band helpful, and that if it becomes really bad we can do physical therapy. It did get significantly better after birth, but took a little while to feel 100% better.
@zande2016 I’m so sorry!! I hope things turn around for you soon. New bank accounts sounds like a hassle that no one wants to deal with.
@wildtot I hope it’s nothing serious. I put off a uti in August and it turned into a kidney infection. It was the most miserable experience. I ended up in the hospital for several days. Now anytime I hear someone thing they might have a UTI I’m like “GET TO THE DOCTOR!!” I hope you feel better!
@wildtot I hope you feel better! I know that last pregnancy when I had a kidney infection I skipped COMPLETELY over the UTI symptoms. They had DH lightly karate chop my back below the ribs/above the kidneys on my side (so like, right about where your waist starts/slightly above) and if it hurt I was to come in (it did). I went to the hospital for a few days too! I hope its absolutely nothing for you!
@SmashJam@hillbillywife thank you! The pain on my side has gone away for the most part which I’m glad. The dr on call said that if the pain didn’t get better or if i got a fever to go into L&D so I’m just monitoring for now. Hope it was just some weird intestinal thing since i felt better after some (sorry TMI) major gas and BM. I’ve also had uti without symptoms. You can never be too careful.
DH has a bad knee (for years now) and it’s been flaring up lately. He keeps complaining that it hurts everyday and I’ve told him what options he has - like finally go see a doctor. But nope doesn’t take my advice and he keeps on complaining. It’s getting old and he better not be waiting for me to schedule a doctor appointment. Men.
OMG @wildtot MH is the same. And always refuses to go to the doc/do anything the doc says. He takes heartburn meds and we had to take an entire cycle off TTC (it had been months at that point I was so frustrated) because he was taking heartburn meds so often they gave him some VERY negative side effects for weeks, all the way through the fertile window. He needs to eat better, exercise, and lose weight, and go to a gastroenterologist to check on things and he had not (still has not) taken steps towards any of those things. The fact that it affected me and was directly related to him just not changing things the doc had told him to do in the past was just so frustrating for me! Men indeed.
@wildtot I hope you’re feeling better and get some relief soon!! Edit to add- I must have missed your update- glad you’re feeling better! My 1st pregnancy I had something similar. It happened during the week and I ended up going in and getting an ultrasound (at 11 weeks) and everything was fine. That was when I found out my IBS-C is 100x worst during pregnancy.
@zande2016 That sounds terrible! Hopefully no real damage is done and you can get that $1000 back! Changing everything over to a new account sounds like the biggest headache!
This vagina pain, as bad as it is, doesn’t sound as bad as some of you ladies. More like sore joints feet working out? Or throbbing pain. I’ve read sometimes you can feel the bones grinding and even hear it and that just sounds so terrible. I’m really hoping this doesn’t progress into something like that! Has anyone been able to fine any relief? I’m thinking maybe a heat pack? Or an ice pack?
dd's play barn keeps making animals sounds from across the room. It is freaking me out haha! I'm sure its the vibration of me tapping my foot while I work but dang catches me off guard everytime haha

This happens to me ALL THE TIME!! I was in the bathroom and DS was sleeping and one of his trucks started making noise! Freaked me outttttttt!!!!!!
@wildtot My DH is the same!! He tore his rotator cuff and it took 3 YEARS for him to finally see a doctor about the pain, when he couldn't lift his arm over his shoulder anymore He had surgery to correct it (after cortisone injections and PT failed). A year later, he thinks he tore the other shoulder. He's been living with that pain for over a year now and refuses to go see a doctor bc "it's just going to be torn and nothing helps and I can't take time off from work to have it fixed and blah blah blah.......". I just want him to get it looked at, we're not trying to schedule surgery today or anything! *huff* Men.

OMG as I was getting up to lay my son in his crib after he fell asleep, his stupid farm animal puzzle started mooing and roaring. Scared the crap out of me. I think the vibration of my footsteps set it off.
I spoke to paypal and the guy basically told me it was my fault I got hacked because I repeat passwords, and he told me my other accounts are probably compromised as well. How could I possibly have 50 different passwords for all my different accounts and ever remember them all?? On a positive note, the money hadn't cleared yet when I figured out what happened, so I will definitely be able to get it back.
Also, did anyone else watch Jimmy Kimmel's opening for the Oscars and think he was off his game/not that funny?
@lindsayleigh1989 there's a possessed toy in every house I think. Growing up I had a baby doll that talked if you pressed her tummy, and one night during a sleep over she randomly started talking and freaked out all of us. I almost threw her in the garbage that night, haha! Usually, the cause is either the toy is too sensitive to vibrations or the batteries are dying....or naturally, there is a demon inside it that wants to come out and play.
random cant sleep thoughts: I hate sciatica especially when it feels like restless leg! it is thundering and lightening even! yet we have a huge snowstorm expected to hit tomorrow am! so weird!
Re: Weekend Randoms 3/3-3/4
Also, anyone else feel like they got kicked in the vagina?? Gosh. I’m also having pain (throbbing) occasionally in the TMI clitoris area. Anyone else?

@zande2016 that really sucks! I hope you get your money transferred back.
