Side note: What is going on with this board lately? It seems like every single day a bunch of lurkers/newbies come out of nowhere with ridiculous questions or blog-like threads. I usually try to just skip those threads, but it's starting to get annoying.
I'm having a hard time not being mean so I just choose not to say anything. I can't even bring myself to say congrats because I'm like who the fuck are you?
I'm up. Yummy pains from eating an entire burger earlier (usually my body doesn't agree with red meat). Did anyone watch the ball drop from NYC? Jenny McCarthy is dating a wahlberg? Why didn't I know that?
Marathon feeding session...45 minutes in and on boob #2. Baby girl is getting milk drunk too. Really would love this feed to equal 2 hrs of sleep for me instead of 45 min. Probably won't be that lucky. Listening to fireworks go off around the neighborhood.
One more thing. On the lurker front, there is one person that ONLY comments on those threads to say something mean and it bothers me. If you post all the time and then comment on them saying something I get it but don't only post to say something rude.

Well, I guess I'm just as clueless as you are because I had no idea either!
You're still sleeping?!?!?!?!? You lucky duck! I'm debating murder over here as I listen to DH snore.
I joke that people would wonder how I even got pregnant again...my husband likes to fall asleep with the tv on, and I like it quiet. Add in the constant flipping over from side to side by me and that I don't have the tv on to fall asleep he usually falls asleep on the couch. Our 5 year old falls asleep in our bed and I'm too lazy to move him to his room. Our 20 month old still wakes up at least 1x a night for a drink of milk and I swear I'm peeing at least 3x in the middle of the night. But I think I'm just used to the 2-3 hours in a row and consider that sleep, lol.
I had planned on a nap this afternoon but went and worked in my classroom to get ready for school starting up again on Thursday, I should be ready to fall asleep yet somehow I'm not.
@kosbo06 Just took my papaya enzymes, although they don't seem to be helping very much anymore. Going to talk to my midwife this week bc it seems to be getting worse.
I have to take some form of OTC heartburn medication every night before bed. If I didn't I would feel like I'm breathing fire! Hope you find done relief!
@jessicabcairns It's Donnie. He's my fav New Kid and I didn't bother watching Jennie McCarthy because she's dating him and she bugs the hell out of me.

I'm a bravo tv whore and saw them together on watch what happens live a few months back, although I can't remember which wahlberg either, lol!
I'm awake and just read this whole thread !!! Just got home from celebrating .... I'm ready for sleep but SO is drunk and when he's drunk he loves to do housework so he is running about the house. I don't hate it! happy new year lovely ladies!
I'm up, didn't even realize it was after 2 until I saw this thread lol. DH and I are staying up watching one of those 'best food' shows and I'm starting to think that was a mistake. All I want is a nice cheese burger.
So it's 3:05 here and I'm wide awake. Why must this happen every night? How will I ever return to work next week? Anyone got any ideas to help curb insomnia? Who am I kidding, if you did you wouldn't be here now?
It's just one of those things we can't control. We can curb insomnia using methods frown upon during pregnancy lol.
Hi ladies. I've been up the past few nights suffering with some nasty acid reflux. Vomiting in my mouth if I'm not sitting straight up is oh-so-much fun. Happy New Year!!
@alwaysadream528 - I wish I had some advice to help the insomnia. But like you said, we might be the wrong group to poll. ;-) The only thing I used to do that would help would be to read for a while without any other stimulation (no tv, minimal lighting, etc.). Sometimes my eyes would get so tired it would eventually knock me out.
Hi fellow insomniacs. 4:55am here and I'm up with stomach pain and nausea. I feel AWFUL. I want to curl in the fetal position and just sleep. I fell asleep at 11p and totally missed the ball drop.
Thanks Megs - I know the point is that we all wish we were sleeping! I just hate feeling so yuck. When the stores open I am off to get some ginger ale.
It's only 2 here, though. Hubby still at work. This was my daughter at 10:45 pm trying to stay up until midnight. She so didn't make it. Went back out at 11 and she passed out.
@gina0485 - ugh that sucks. Have you been dealing with a lot of nausea lately? Did you at least get to do anything fun tonight? I'm pretty sure my issue is because of what I ate tonight (mexican food cannot be good for heartburn/acid reflux but whatever lol)
@ladyj2949 I haven't had any nausea during pregnancy - yep, I'm that chick who's complaining the first time it's really happened. I think I'm just super sensitive to any change in my body right now as I await hearing about my labs re: cholestasis. Plus, I feel fricking terrible. Tonight we stayed in and DH made us rack of lamb and glazed carrots. We watched LOTR and were in bed by 11pm! Low key but I enjoyed being home. As the baby's due date draws near, I am becoming a little reclusive!
I hope your heart burn goes away- at least Mexican tastes good on the way down what else did you do on NYE?
DH and I took someone else's suggestion and had Chinese for supper. I was going to open some wine before midnight, but dang, we decided to fall asleep together on the sofa. It was actually kind of sweet, our feet were all tangled up, and it was like way back when we were dating :x We woke up 2 minutes before midnight, LOL, just long enough to say Happy New Year and me to shove him off the sofa so I could get more comfy.
Now my pubic bone hurts again, I'm hungry, but I don't really want to get up.
I saw your post on that. I had to google it to see what it was. I hope your labs come back all clear but I can imagine you must be stressed out just thinking about it. The freaking week wait doesn't help, either.
Ummmm your DH made rack of lamb?! Damn. That's pretty impressive. Does he love to cook?
LOL I'm becoming a recluse too. We went out to an early dinner and then just came back home to relax for the night. We were invited to a party but it was 45 minutes away and I was nervous to go there since I've had BH on and off and didn't want to be uncomfortable. We ended up playing games, watching a movie, and then seeing the ball drop. We bought a TON of apps to make but were still so full from dinner that we didn't touch them. Guess I know what we'll be eating tomorrow.
@mrsgraham06 aw that's sweet! Hope the Chinese was yum!
@gina0485 - The Chinese was HEAVENLY!!! Usually DH doesn't eat it, he says what's the point when you're just hungry an hour later (he says the same about Mexican). But he discovered that our local restaurant has the BEST EVER chicken fried rice I also had crab rangoon and egg rolls. Last time I get egg rolls, though, they're just kinda meh.

Oh he can cool all right! I wouldn't say he loves it but he does enjoy it from time to time and is good at it. He makes things that I normally wouldn't, so I like the variety. I would say I'm jealous of your leftover appetizers but if I tried to eat right now, it would not end well! Sounds like you two had a fun night.
