Finally got the Dh off his ass and to Home Depot tonight. New front door and supplies for the great room shuffle have been purchased. Can't wait to get this project really started!!!!
Update: Everything seems fine my cervix is closed and the bleeding has stopped. She did find some old blood in there but isn't very concerned. They checked his HB which was strong and he even gave her a few kicks.
@jn&l excellent thank you. I've been needing a backup nourishing body scrub and don't want to pay for one (I've been getting into homemade stuff like that lately too.
Why do people insist on having huge bashes for their kid's 1st birthday???? Obviously the party is for the parent and not the kid!
I know, my younger sister informs me that I WILL be having the big bash for my daughter's first birthday. I told her I would only if she footed the bill. IMO not necessary to throw a huge bash, she won't even remember it.

So I think we are putting the kibosh on the whole trying to find a house to buy and move right before we have the baby thing. With me not working I just don't like the idea of buying when we are not sure of where our finances are going to be. So I found a 2 bedroom unit in our condo and I think we are going to do it. For some reason moving seems like such a better prospect then just cleaning the space I have...on top of getting a second bedroom for baby we won't have to paint the whole place and get new carpeting in the deal. We just have to pass an inspection to transfer our lease to a new unit. I am hoping they don't give us too many hang ups and we can get this ball rolling.
I don't wanna start a full thread for this, but today I've been super uncomfortable. My back really hurts, and my belly is stiff but I know it's not contractions (this is baby 3) could it be a uti or something? Or should I be concerned?

Were you super active today? I had this happen when I went insane cleaning for a day and overdid it...my back was REALLY sore and my muscles were really tight and stiff...I just laid back with a heating pad and drank lots of water and I felt much better in a couple of hours.
@fourthnlast - That just happened to me... I was cutting up a cucumber and a piece dropped and my first thought was "fuck it, I'll get it when I sweep the floor anyway". I so effing lazy nowadays.
We have two dogs that vacume up anything the minute I drop it. I hardly ever sweep because they get every crumb...
This is us too. "Oops!" and "aw shit" are two of the fastest ways to get my dogs' attention.

Not really, it started earlier after I went out shopping... Got home, laid down and eventually it went away. It started again about 2 hrs ago, so I did the same thing but it's not subsiding so I'm not sure... Maybe I'll just try and sleep and see if it goes away :-?

We ended up doing a pretty big 1st birthday but it was still mostly just family and close friends. I spent less than $150 on food and decorations. I don't think that's bad at all. It IS for the parents, but I don't think that's bad either.
Did you rent a venue, hire a clown, and get a bouncy house? If not then I don't think that falls in the big bash category. All these things have been done and then some at some of the first birthday parties people have
@pineconey I really dislike reading. You talked about how you read the Bradley book and now about the womanly art of breast feeding. Both are books I want to read. Wanna have a read aloud??? I really wish I had the attention span/ability to focus to read.
I feel as if every side stomach muscle on my right side has been pulled. It hurts to walk, I can barely panda roll and laying on that side isn't happening. I don't remember this from other pregnancies. Any insights? Growth spurt or stretching are my only guesses, but this started last night.

We can have a mass skype session(or tinychat... Is that what it's called?) and I'll read the womanly art of breastfeeding aloud to everyone. In a Morgan Freeman voice.

@pineconey yesssss!!! Sounds amazeballs. Kinda like his audio version of go the fuck to sleep?! I can't contain myself when I hear/read that book. That's roughly the length I can handle reading. Haha
An excerpt for you to imagine in your head: "...when he drifts off to sleep at the breast, don't move him except to pillow his head more comfortably on your breast... Sometimes babies just need some extra snuggling at the breast, because your breast is his home..."

That's hilarious! But even without Morgan Freeman reading it to me, I don't think I could take that book seriously.

I can't stop laughing!!!!! Totally imagining Morgan Freeman's voice uttering those words is hilarious! Piney, you're a genius.
On that note, I'm rolling my east coast ass to bed. Hopefully it'll be filled with funny dreams instead of the crazy ones lately!
