Ugh I out sex drive SO all the time, but like @mytrueloves I need the physical intimacy too. I can take care of myself no problem but it's just not the same.
@krzyriver I've definitely had that happen before. Need to replace ASAP! Haha
DF is selling a set of drill bits on Facebook market place. He gets a response from someone asking if it's still available and DF says yes but he needs it picked up between such and such time today and asks if the guy can accomodate that. Guy responds with "No, my wife is in labor and I can't step away" WHO GOES SHOPPING ON FACEBOOK MARKET PLACE WHILE THEIR WIFE IS IN LABOR?!
And then a few minutes later the same guy tells DF he called his sister to come pick up the bits for him. His wife is in labor and he's so worried about getting this $30 set of drill bits that he called his sister from his wife's bedside to pick them up for him.
I'd kill DF if he did any of this while I was in labor lol

I have a much higher drive than H! He's 8 years older and we've been together since I was 23, so I'm hoping we'll level out as I get older because I'm tired of having to manipulate him into it!
In Wednesday's ticker change we were talking about crazy size comparison differences among websites. Today for example the bump says babies are the size of acorn squash, baby sizer says they're the size of a gallon of milk, baby center says butternut squash, and that seems to be the general consensus among other websites. It's crazy how much the sizes vary!
@krzyriver DH is 8 years older than me too and we met with I was 22. Been together 11 years. His drive has slowed down over the last 8 years and I just kind of followed suit about 5 years ago. We go through phases where we go at it a lot then months go by... I think as long as you both are happy and still have an intimate relationship and communicate it is totally normal.

So I’m about to head to the hospital.. this baby has barely moved in 2 days. Ever since my dentist appointment... needless to say, I’m a nervous wreck. Prayers please!!
@jennybean80 same... I think DH thinks I will go into labor if he touches me. Dr didn't specifically say pelvic rest, but i think she scared him with the other restrictions she gave me. I however have had like zero drive most of my pregnancy, so I don't hate it, just feel bad.
Huge sigh of relief!! Dr said he is perfect and probably just really chill because my body was most likely stressed from getting my stupid wisdom teeth pulled. Thanks for the love!
Glad to hear everything was fine @jynjer91 I went to L&D more than once with ODD because of concerns of fetal movement.
@bundleofjoy3iluvu With ODD, she was only in the bassinet long enough for me to recover enough from her birth to be able to navigate the stairs. My bedroom was upstairs and I couldn't handle it so I slept in the living room downstairs with the bassinet next to the couch. If I'd been able to handle it or my bedroom had been on the main floor, she'd have been in the crib from day 1. That being said, our current bedroom is ridiculously tiny so this little one is going in a bassinet next to the bed because it's all we have room for lol

I was bit by a spider last week and it got really infected so I was in the ER all day yesterday getting antibiotics. Joy! So happy to be home now. My tummy is all messed up though from all the meds. Anyone know of anything I can do to combat this? I’ve used the restroom far too much today.
@sparklingwhit I'm always told to eat yogurt when on antibiotics.. other than that I have no clue beside try to enjoy those bathroom trips while you can still make them!

Bassinet or Crib? Anyone skipping the bassinet and going straight to the crib?
