    @pineconey I was actually just reading facebook...and there is this family that has had a rough year - their baby has been in the hospital since birth, for the past 6 months! He finally just went home, but they have 3 other kids. I saw someone comment and say they would love to help out with Christmas for the kids, and the mom replied that would be so awesome, as they were behind on their bills and struggling. I never would have thought to offer that to someone! At least I would KNOW my gifts are going to a good place! Maybe i'll do something like that!


    @tallab that sounds perfect!!!!  i bet you could rally some other folks in your community to help out as well!  you guys could help check into other orgs that give out free coats, meals, etc. to help hook them up with resources as well as gifting them with goodies too! i'd love to hear how it goes!

  • And, just to have another comment, we're doing an angel tree kid and one of our local radio stations does a 'long haul against hunger' and you can drive up to them while you're out shopping and they will take whatever donation (food or money) you have. I collect change at work and take it up there, and clean out all my canned goods and take them too. It's all donated to the local food bank.

  • mmmmmm food!!! My boy went crazy when I was eating Wendy's spicy chicken nuggets!!!!

    @pineconey I was waiting for your glorious, fried-chicken filled update =D> You did not disappoint.


    Also I think I convinced SO to bring vanilla ice cream home for us to eat with the apple crisp I made. C'mon baby! Don't fail me now!

    @karissamonzo we can be high risk together. I guess I won't waste my time heading over to that board.

    What's your story lady!?!? Sorry that's not excitement that you are high risk!

    I'm having identical twin girls so started seeing the MFM two weeks ago. Everything was going great and I thought today was goin to be a "see you in two weeks" appointment. I had an ultrasound today and baby a is looking good but the fluid for baby b is low. Now I get ultrasounds twice a week. They are thinking I have twin to twin transfusion going on.

    This early?  Oh girl that sucks I am sorry.  Does that mean guaranteed bedrest from early on?  I have a family friend who had triplets, and the identical twins had twin to twin transfusion and she ended up getting some sort of surgery that fixed something in the cord and it stopped (I don't know if she was a special case but it was the first I heard of surgery for that issue).  But the point of the story is that she has 3 perfect little triplet boys that are 2 years old.  They all turned out fine.
    Surprisingly no bed rest. Dr said there is nothing I can do to help or hurt this. On Monday I have to go to the office at the hospital because I might have to have an amino. The dr did tell me about the surgery and if I needed it there are only a few hospitals in the country that does it. This sucks but the good thing is they caught it early and there are different things for them to help stop it.

    What is twin to twin transfusion, and how is it harmful to the babies? I realize this may not be a simple explanation, but I'm genuinely curious...

    Pancakes are the ultimate late night food. Or buttered toast with jelly.

    I made a ridiculous amount of chorizo (Mexican sausage) and eggs for supper with the intention of saving some for SO. Well... I ate it all, minus a little bit that I shared with my pup... And now I want KFC, so that's just freaking great.

    Mmmmmm choriiiiizooooooo.... =P~

    My favorite breakfast since I was little was chorizo & egg burritos. Yummmmmm

  • DH and DD found red and green light bulbs at the store and now we have 3 red outside lights and 2 green ones. Oh and we decorated for Christmas today inside the house since DH was home. I've decided we need more Christmas decorations and it's a good thing we aren't hosting thanksgiving. Haha

    I get them all the time and my doc suggested bananas. Apparently potassium deficiency causes them? Or can cause them? Or something. Anyway, it helps! That and staying hydrated.

    She eats at least 2 or 3 bananas a day! She loves them!! But I could get her to drink more water.. She really likes milk it's hard to get her to drink anything else

    Does she get much salt? I know when I run long distances I take salt to help me stay hydrated and it helps with leg cramps too. That's all the advice I have except to say talk to your ped. There must be something they can do to make her more comfortable. I know Charlie horses can be part of growing pains, but she's a little young for that, especially that frequently. I'm sorry your little one is going through that! I know how badly those suckers hurt! When I get them in the night I wake DH fast, and he knows to move to rub it out quickly or it can feel sore and bruised for days. Hoping they ease up for her soon.
