Confession time!
*Not guaranteed flame-free*

Ok, I got one today, and I hate it. 

We have shared kitchens at work and every month or so, one of my coworkers is "volunteered" to clean out the refrigerators. Normally, I am very good about removing my stuff before cleaning day, but this month I had some chili that got pushed to the back and I forgot about it. It recently resurfaced to the front, but I still haven't gotten rid of it because it grosses me out. Looks like our "volunteer" will be cleaning it out today and I will never admit that it was mine...

Ummm I didn't have to think about mine today: we walked home from the concert we went to last night and both publicly urinated during the 30 minute walk. It felt necessary at the time! There was no one around, SO did it first and then a few minutes later he convinced me it wasn't a big deal for me to do it too. I almost got caught when some people who had been behind us got close to catching up to us, I got "stuck" and couldn't get up from the wall I was leaning against and I'm pretty sure they saw my bare ass from a distance. So...now you all know that.

I might get some "ews" here, but I really only wash my hands after going to the bathroom (to include CP checks lol), taking out the trash, and when preparing food. I have a coworker who sanitizes her hands ALL THE TIME... but I feel like it is overkill...

**TW: TMI perhaps**
A couple months ago my pee was a
color I’d never seen before, like a bright peachy rosé color. At first I thought it must be mixed with blood or something. I had started some new medications that could potentially cause kidney &liver problems & also had some weird pains in my sides, so I wasn’t sure if I was having a kidney or liver infection. (Dramatic, I know!) All I could think of was a Peggy who was on here with a blood/pee question & everybody was like “Dear Gawd, woman, how do you not know if you are bleeding from your urethra or va-jay-jay?!” Haha! This bizarre pee color lasted two days straight so I had my urine tested & all was well. It was the freaking BEET SALAD I’d eaten two days before!!!

OMG @keikilove !!!! I had the SAME THING happen with my stool & beets. thought I was bleeding from my bum. I figured it out though before calling the doc hahaha

You guys. I just called my insurance company to see if they covered anything towards IVF, even though I knew they didn't. Um, they cover 50%, as long as I stay in state (omg, I'm so freaking happy about this). So my FFFC is that I never called before two rounds of IUI, which cost us around $5k with meds. I am NOT telling MH - I'll just make it sound like only IVF us covered, unless he specifically asks. 😬

chichiphin

Omg @ruby696 first of all, amazing you have coverage. Second of all, def agree with keeping him in the dark LOL also men know zero about health insurance 

inthewoods23

@ruby696 it'll be our little secret 🤫🤫🤫 that's freaking amazing!

keikilove

@chichiphin HA!! I’m so glad I’m not the only one! @flowntheloop That was AMAZING😂. I just don’t get how I could’ve eaten so many beet salads in my life & this never happened till now. How did I not know this was a thing??

@ruby696 That’s wonderful! (You are wise to not tell YH about the past potential coverage!) 

b_1029

@ruby696 that’s amazing! 

My fffc is that I’m very jealous and also I work for a health insurance company and have no idea how my insurance works...

Not very juicy but..I.very much judge our customers who email or call us and have such a vague request with little information. Sometimes it's along the lines of going to a dealership and saying "I'm looking for a vehicle". Like ok.... Do you need a car or truck? What brand or model? New or used? Etc. Thanks for providing basically no content to your needs.

Me and my coworker friend talk shit about them all the time when it happens.

@keikilove I’ve heard stories about those pesky beets before. I’m glad that’s all it was! Asparagus always throws me for a loop, and then after a couple minutes of sitting on the toilet worrying, I remember that it’s the reason for that funky smell.

@ruby696 I’m so happy for you that you discovered that! Local is much easier!

afm, this week was the first time I took my cat to the vet since adopting him back in February of 2015. 😬 He’s totally fine though...and it’ll probably be a while before I take him again.

@ruby696 can you see if you doctor can still submit, or if you can?

My confessions are so relateable...

While in the shower this morning my right pelvis hurt. Definitely had everything to do with being pregnant and nothing to do with being dehydrated, despite having had very little water.

Currently feeling my little embryo baby flipping around, despite the fact that I am only 8 dpo and that is not physically possible.

Good times! 👍

mercury94

@bobbyflies2020 Right there with you. Nausea at 9 dpo. Must be pregnancy and not something I ate. 

ruby696

@holly321 I looked into that, but my policy specifically requires the referral before the treatment. So I'm out of luck. Lesson learned.

bobbyflies2020

@mercury94 Ha! isn't 1st tri nausea the worst? 🤦
