Re: **Tuesday AW/SS/Random Thoughts Thread**

  • Jimmy John's is coming to my office to sell lunch today and I can't decide what to order!!! Suggestions? Usually I get the Turkey Tom, but I'm feeling like that's a little boring today.
    Super jealous!!!  The #9 Italian club is really good for something different!  I always get the hot peppers too, and they usually aren't that hot.  It does have onions so if you're avoiding stuff like that...  My closest JJ's is an hours drive away and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't deliver way out here :((

    Love it! On the subway this weekend I was sitting next to a SUPER high couple who were having the BEST time! It was hilarious - they just giggled away and made zero sense with any of the conversations they half started and abandoned mid-thought. Not that I was jealous, because OF COURSE I would never indulge in that sort of activity, so STOPJUDGINGME.

    @mommyp710 I got my bfp at 3 weeks 5 days pg. (of course I was tracking ovulation which is why I tested so early:) ) I used an internet cheapie the day before and it was BFN, used a digi the next day and bam, BFP. Also, I followed up with a FRER and it was actually pretty dark at 3 weeks 5 days...so I'm assuming it would have been at least a squinter even earlier than that. Possible, but you really need to be tracking your temp to know to test that early (or just randomly get lucky). FRER's are the best! My internet strips didn't show even a slight line until 14 DPO.

    I guess I shouldn't really be that surprised...I did use the internet cheapies and got my bfp 3 weeks 6 days...so a more sensitive test would be more likely to pick it up?  It still just seemed super early to me! (And it's kind of making me feel old, if you will, that there are already NOVEMBER babies on the way! Like wtf?  Before you know it we'll officially be mommies!!!)

    There is always that one chick who posts the first post on a bmb saying they just KNOWWWW the sex they had a week ago resulted in pregnancy. Then you never see them again.

    Ha! I remember we had at least two of those!
  • MommyP710 said:
    So I think it was on the last thread of this that someone asked if someone could be due in November already and we pretty much figured out there is no way as the person would have been like 2 weeks pregnant.  Someone already posted on November 2014 saying they are due Nov. 1.  They'd be barely 3 weeks pregnant when they got their BFP.  Can you really get a positive that soon?  Maybe she just ovulates like right away?  I feel like there are plenty of people due in October that haven't even gotten a BFP yet.  At any rate...those are some crazy hormones if you get a + already!
    Still catching up with this thread, but just in case someone didn't do the math - if they did, apologies for the redundancy.

    @Mommyp710 -  If someone's LMP was 1/25/14, that gives them an EDD of 11/1/14.  That's just the generic, not actually looking at someone's cycle and WHEN they ovulate EDD.

    So, going by 1/25/14 - if they O on CD14, they would have O'd on 2/7/14... which puts them at 11DPO today.  Totally realistic to get a BFP today, or even a few days ago.  That's not even considering if they O'd NOT on CD14, but on an earlier day, they'd be even further ahead than just a few weeks pg.

    So, yes, totally legit to already have people announcing EDDs of 11/1/14.

    erm... Can't really make sense of your math-lingo, but I believe you!  My SIL told mom she was PG last week on either Thurs or Fri.  Does that still work?

    eta: My mom thinks that they said they were due in Nov. but there is a possibility that she doesn't remember right.

    Pregnancy math makes my brain hurt. image
    Speaking of pregnancy math...... I feel like maybe I am the only one that caught the math issue with Bode Miller on TV the other night? So he and his wife have been married a year and a half, and they got married 5 months after he pretty much stalked her because it was love at first sight for him. They are raising his 2 kids from previous relationships, a daughter I forget her age and his son who is about to turn 1..... so basically he got someone pregnant while dating his love at first sight wife? Am I right or am I crazy?

  • @babybean82 I read about Bode Miller in daily mail a few months ago. He apparently has gotten quite a few people pregnant, had no interest in the baby and then fought the mom for custody after the baby was a few months old. It was a whole lotta drama.

  • Shitballs. I just woke up from a dream where I spent the night at my asshole ex-husband's place because his wife was out of town for the night. The next morning I even showered and used her hair dryer. By the time I got out of the bathroom and was ready to go home, she had arrived. We both pretended like she wasn't there. Gross!

    I don't have them. I don't think everyone gets them. I'm 25+. Just watch because I said that I'll have them today.

  • @wtfisup I never had B-H with my first (that I knew of). No worries if you never get them.
  • Okay, I think I injured a round ligament. Is that possible? 

    I've been way too sedentary so far in pregnancy (snow, fatigue, etc), and I'm trying to get my shiznit together. Yesterday was gloriously warm for Ohio -- 45 degrees! So I went on a 1-mile walk at work. During it, I noticed a lot of RLP on the left side, but thought maybe it was like the side stitches you get when running: walk through it. Then I went home and walked about 3 more miles with a friend around the park. Mild but mostly no RLP during that. 

    Then I got up this morning. It's definitely the round ligament on my left side, and it feels very not good. When I walk, I'm practically keeping my left leg stuff to avoid engaging ... anything. If I've pulled it or something, I know there's nothing to do but rest and healing. But is that possible? Can I have injured it?

    I feel the need to AW it up cause we finally picked out a boy name!! Everett Rivers!! MN is a family name and we just love the FN, also his initials will be the same as FIL's! Girl name is Karina Elaine, MN is DH's grandmom's FN. Phew so glad to be done with that!
    My godsons' name is Everett - and he is the coolest kid ever, so I'm 110% sure yours will be as well!

    I don't see why you couldn't injure a round ligament - it's a ligament, just like any other, right?

     

    I would just be really careful and make sure you really do rest it!  I am usually a terrible patient and don't pay attention to 'resting' torn/pulled muscles, but in your case, I would be extra careful about it.  And if it didn't get better in 2-3 days, I would call the nurse's line or something.

    The toys are really cool. And expensive.
