@danixbanani24 - we saw Macklemore when I was 12 weeks with DD - I almost died at work the next day, but it was still one of the best experiences of my life.

@sjnsjnsjn... its just a matter of time.. mine are a bit bigger but not too bad yet at nearly 12 weeks. Theyre huge to begin with too, Hubby cant wait.   I might have to suffocate him down the road with them

@madreofdragons what's a pee jug?

PurplePoppy424

Thank you so much everyone! All of the well wishes were heard. Baby is measuring perfectly and the heart rate was 174. I have another SCH, but it’s small again, so they’re expecting it to reabsorb quickly like last time. 

@madreofdragons I have to do it, too. I had pre-e with my first and I guess this new practice has you do it if you have a history. Is that maybe what’s going on for you?

madreofdragons

Ugh. It’s because I’m fat. Kaiser just seems to do everything early. My last office didn’t even see me until just now. I’m going to pick up my jug today, I want to get it over with.

@madreofdragons I had KP with my son and I lovedddd it. I think I had an ultrasound at every visit and went so much more frequently than I do with my new insurance. I’ve seen my doctor once (and had one ultrasound) this time. With DS I’d been to Kaiser at least 3 times already. 

madreofdragons

I’m loving the ultrasounds. Also having the app and being able to see test results and such so easily.

OB called in Diclegis for me. Insurance denied it. $350 for the bottle. Uhhh NO. So now my OB submitted a pre-auth and I need to hold tight for a bit. ANNOYED. And pukey. 

kayjay44

@okayestmom12 - It's $60 for a prescription on my insurance. You can make it on your own for much cheaper. Also, Zofran was $10. Insanity. 

madreofdragons

My formerly sunburnt back is now peeling. This is me today..

cas060

Sh*t just got real!  Heard the hb at the docs today for the first time. 160 bpm

etnyah

Non-pg related, just need to vent. Today is much cooler than the past few days, so I decided go treat myself to a frappuccino and a stroll by the canal after work. Got my drink, walked a bit, found a bench to sit on and... got friggin bit by a wasp on my ankle! Out of nowhere! Currently icing my leg with my frap. Goddamn, wasps are assholes.

BourbonBiscuits

@grebretso actually fuck wasps. I hate them. We have a wasp nest out on our patio that will not go away

BourbonBiscuits

Laughing my ass off over these lists. Not exactly what I meant when I searched for unusual baby names, Pinterest. 

etnyah

Hahahaha @BourbonBiscuits! Maybe there’s a reason nobody’s choosing those names!

madreofdragons

My grandma calls vaginas Christmases so that’s out.

BourbonBiscuits

I'm just waiting for someone to show up and tell my judgy ass that they're naming their kid Sheherazade

etnyah

I'm partial to Eleazer and Trout myself. 

kayjay44

None of those names are on my list 

My whole body hurts - I’m too stressed lately. Thankfully my parents have our kids so Sten can run errands and come right home and it’ll be quiet. I’m ordering ramen (tantanmen, specifically) and I am already debating working from home tomorrow so I can work from my bed tomorrow. 

danixbanani24

Got my ol girl waxed today and let’s just say it had been a while.  The lady who waxes me said “this ones gonna hurt you a lot”. She was right.  Ouch

i also just ate Oreos with milk bc I really wanted them and nowwwwww I’m nauseas ugh 

kayjay44

Off of @danixbanani24’s post, I don’t really groom downstairs. I’m not a very hairy person and it’s just not problematic for me. And DH doesn’t care. 

madreofdragons

Ahh the luck of the blonde @kayjay44. I could easily star in a 70s porno....or scrub dishes if I let it go. 

notthecheat

I'm loving that North and West are on those lists

I was coming to comment about Trout. What in the actual fuck. 

okayestmom12

@kayjay44 - Yup. If the price doesn’t decrease significantly, I’ll get some B6 and Unisom and become my own pharmacy.

You could really jazz up your names with these. I guarantee there wont be a “Beach Salmon” or a “Night Puck” in your kids class. No need to name share lol

danixbanani24

@kayjay44. Lol the last person i do it for is DH.  I just need to do it myself...I go like every two months or so when it gets really out of control haha.  I have hair that has a tendancy to give me ingrowns and issues so I have to do it or hate my life.  I also have REALLY sensitive skin so I can’t shave/trim.  Hard wax is my friend.

eliseirene31613

Mingus!! That's hilarious!! I would seriously have trouble holding back giggles if I met someone named Mingus! haha
I've thought about finding a ridiculous name to tell people that we are naming our baby just to see their reaction, so I'll definitely be referring to this list if we do that! lol
Also, I feel like I shouldn't show this list to DH since he likes weird names...don't want him getting any ideas! 

madreofdragons

I have a friend with one of the female names 

BourbonBiscuits

@madreofdragons noooo. I would ask which one, but that’d totally out you/her lol.

Diclegis update! With the pre-auth form submitted, my copay went from over $300 to $0! Hopeful this helps! 

okayestmom12

I’m trying reallllllllly hard to be a fun mom this summer and not the first trimester sick mom. Took my kids for breakfast froyo and then to swim at my in laws for a bit. We then took a 3 pm bath, got into pj’s, and Netflix is now their caregiver until dinner. I call it balance. 

BourbonBiscuits

@okayestmom12 we’ve got Curious George going over here - thank god hulu has every episode. Hoping that’ll tide us over until dinner

conchispita

@okayestmom12 I have my little pony going, and I don’t feel bad at all

megpants209

I can’t get myself going to do anything house related. We’re solidly in the neat freak category (I usually iron sheets regularly) but since getting pregnant it’s completely fallen behind. I REALLY hope my energy perks up in a few weeks. 

madreofdragons

Just so you all know, nausea and a 24 hour pee jug is not a good combination. 

BourbonBiscuits

This 18 month sleep regression can kick rocks. Little dude hasn’t napped in 3 days and is a TERROR all day because he’s so exhausted. 

kayjay44

@megpants209 - it did my first pregnancy. My second, not so much.

Was literally the worst! I remember thinking “she cant be dropping her last nap, could she?!” Thank god she started napping again. I hope it doesnt last long! 

cali1710

@okayestmom12 Ive been a horrible mom the last month. I feel like I cant do anything fun and my fuse is so short with her. I feel I’m constantly getting mad at her. And shes not even that bad! But shes a big runner, so she always wants to chase and do fast things and i just cant. I cant wait to get more energy.
