    I was awake from 2:30 until 5 am because my LO had the hiccups and then was barrel rolling all night. She's doing it again. I wonder if I'll have a natural swimmer lol? It feels like she's doing underwater cartwheels and shiz in there.

    I think mine will have her black belt already

    DH has court (über lame) but has promised to bring home donuts after (thanks to whoever posted the Krispy Kreme gif the other day!) then we are going to register some.

    I think he has something planned for tonight, but I'm not sure. He's acting suspiciously, but I like surprises. Plus we haven't been on a date in awhile. And I shaved my legs. ;;)

    Dang it, I knew I forgot to do something this morning...

    I am not adding that to my to do list. Brushing my teeth in the mornings is taxing enough. If I feel extra fancy, I will brush them at night, too.

    DH and I are going out for burgers. We had reservations at a nice place in downtown Seattle, but I urged DH to cancel.


    This makes me crave all the things from La Carta de Oaxaca in Ballard. Yum!

    I got a six pack and super glued and duck taped to bottles to bamboo sticks. Then I took some Meat sticks and super glued 5 Reese's heart shaped candy in a flower shape to them then taped bamboo sticks to those. Arranged everything in a flower pot with those silly glass rocks. (Used duck tape because it's manly lol)  I also put a large bottle of his favorite beer in the back. You have to make sure that when you put it together that the weight is even or it all goes to hell. I had some trouble with it at first. Also cut some of the sticks different lengths.

    We aren't doing anything tonight, DH works late and then has to run some errands.  Right now though, I'm having a great Valentine's "date."  Me and DS1 are laying in our bed, I'm working from home and browsing the Bump, he's on his iPad and we just broke into some candy.  I figured out the carb counts for Kit Kats and M&Ms and am enjoying my treat.

    Overnight I got a GI bug thing, was up and down most of the night losing fluids from both ends. This morning took some zofran and Imodium, pounded a Gatorade and went to get my hair highlighted and cut thinking I would be fine. Not so much. I almost passed out 3 times and had to lie on their back room floor for a while. Luckily the place was nearly empty and my stylist is one of my closet friends, otherwise I would have looked like an weirdo. Probably should have stayed home.

    Ok, pg stuff is beyond my mathematics. So if some one says they are due with a baby in Nov. wouldn't that make her like 2 weeks along?? I can't find a computer thing to figure this out for me, just a due date calculator, so I have to guess last menstral cycle (awkward).
    Anyone know how or where I can figure this out???

    On a completely unrelated note an old HS teacher of mine posted this on Facebook today. It is simultaneously sad and funny.

    Yes, but the reason he was martyred is because he was marrying couples against the emperor's orders. He was championing love.  So, the original idea of the holiday is based on that.  I think it's a little out of hand in our current society, though.
    Actually, this might be a mythology... Saint Valentine's Day was originally a religious holiday, but it seems there isn't actually confirmation which martyred Saint Valentine it celebrates. The link between Valentine's Day and romance is all Chaucer's fault.

    I found out maybe the 25ish of September that I was pg and due June 5. Maybe they are due November 1? It is possible I guess but they like literally just got ku

    ETA yea looking at a calendar I find that highly doubtful.

    My parents are visiting and offered to watch DD while DH and I go see a movie or something. I just looked at the movie showings and there is nothing out right now that I really want to see. :( Maybe I can talk DH into going out for Hibachi instead since I've been craving it for a while; however I'm not looking forward to the long wait times at the restaurants. 

    On another note, DH did get me some chocolates. I was surprised since we said "no gifts" and of course I didn't get him anything. DH said it was for the baby since I've been craving sweets like none other.

    EDD's are based on last menstrual period, usually... If your LMP was January 25th, your EDD would be November 1st.  I guess it's possible that her period was say, between January 25-27, and then she ovulated by CD10, she could get a BFP by now.

    It might sound like a long shot but I think it's possible.  Stranger things have happened. 

    She could also always be miscalculating her EDD - maybe she thought she got a period the end of January and used that for the calculator, but it was really just implantation spotting?

     

    <~ learned a lot on TTGP 

     

    ETA - and it would totally make her like, 2.5 weeks along.

    I kept trying to guess the earliest she'd be due in Nov and she would be approx 2 weeks...  

    My brother just got married for the second time this summer to a lady he knew at the longest 6 months.  I'd never met her and while it's his life and I love him no matter what and anyone that is important to him is special to me.  It just made me kinda... nervous, maybe?  that it felt like he was jumping in kinda quickly.  She has two children from a previous marriage 9 and 6, so that's another thing that has me scratching my head, she surely would know what a period was...  So we met her at Thanksgiving (about the time my blood pressure skyrocketed) and she was a very nice girl (which I was sure she would be).  She was just sorta... blonde? ditzy?  I dunno...  Now she text my mom and mom told me they said they were expecting a baby in Nov...  And I was like wow that's early... and the longer I thought about it the more confused I got...  

    My other brother married a girl awhile ago and I referred to them affectionately as 'The Crazies'.  He was always my 'crazy' brother that I could describe as lightening.  :)  Well, several years ago, she announced to us that she was pg!  'Oh! Congrats!  So excited for you!'  A couple weeks later, she tells us she had a miscarriage.  And this process repeated itself more times than was possible... Like my first Bros first wife was an RN and she said there was no way that she could've been getting pg and miscarrying like she was... 

    That to say I may be a little skeptical when there is no cause to be about things that don't make sense in that manner.  

    I hope this doesn't come across that I don't love them or anything.  I love them both so much, they just kinda run around and do all this 'wild' stuff and then I'm the one that's here, always will be, for them when they need it.  

    Sorry this sorta turned into a looong story!  Thanks for the tips!

    @lizm05 - well... it would be really, really early if she's due in November. Like, really early to be texting your new MIL with the good news, I think, unless they are super close (and even then, why would you text?)

    So, with all the other stuff you said.... I totally get the skepticism and feeling like this is all happening quickly. I'm trying not to judge or get you worked up, lol, but yea. It would make me stop and think, too.

    @lest12  Thanks!  Just even 'bouncing' it off others kinda helps me maybe think a little clearer about the matter.  I guess when they let me know I'll say 'congrats' and time will tell!

    @kaceymarie; when is your wedding anniversary? Mine and my husbands is March 30... :))

    We celebrated the Hallmark Holiday yesterday by going to a small little restaurant; 15 tastings on the menu = 1 very happy pregnant lady!! No gifts for us since we are also celebrating our 1 yr anniversary next month and saving for this little lady to come!

    @lizm05 - I get it. It's weird and sometimes tough when siblings (who we've known forever) make these quick, major life decisions. For me, at least... I think we are allowed some time to warm up to the idea.

    My DH is working all evening so I'm watching trashy tv and going to make pizza. He bought me a bag of m&ms and a box of nerds and I bought him a bag of hugs. I guess we just think candy is the perfect gift. We never do anything special for valentines day anymore and I'm completely happy with that.

    Daycare sent my 21 month old home with a bag of candy and cards and shit...so I waited until she went to bed and I'm on her last bag of M&Ms.  She can eat the fruit snacks tomorrow :).  That said, we didn't send in any cards because I didn't think to at that age, oops!!

    Valentines isn't a huge deal for us but we do like to go out to eat a nice meal. We went to Texas Roadhouse and I got a steak with a loaded baked potato and fried pickles! Soooo good! 

    We also exchanged mushy lovey dovey cards that made me cry. It was sweet.
