  • My bassinet is the same way. The bottom is a basket for whatever. So I have diapers and wipes and things.

    It is freezing here today so I guess that means another day of trying to keep the wild things occupied without any outdoor time to kill some energy.

    Also on another board I'm on they have started a Castor Oil chronicles and discuss every night how much they are taking "the safe way" and all of the symptoms associated with it. Hmm... There seems to be way tmi about bms and all the other associated symptoms. It turns my stomache!

    Seriously wtf?!? Gross

    @futuremrsspriggs yep! My thoughts exactly. It is really weird. And for some reason if it doesn't work the first time these women are actually trying it every night!!
  • I have a patch of skin that's about two inches thick and six inches across that feels like someone took a candle and held it under the skin until the nerves were raw. :/ No blistering, no skin discoloration, no nothing. Just pain. Poor DH feels so bad every time he grazes it because it hurts so bad I tear up a little every time, and this has been going on for two weeks now. :/ Just another joyful pregnancy thing to deal with, I guess. Maybe if I milk it I can get DH to go get me Casey's crushed ice...

    Ours has sort of a basket but it's cloth or meshy flimsy as well as super old so it doesn't stay sturdy, the only thing functional in there are a couple extra blankets.

    We thought about getting a new bassinet but this one was free ;) dh settled himself on this thing he claims is $14 at Walmart.... Guess we'll see. He's on his way back home w/it now.

    That looks pretty handy! And when you don't need it for the LO later on it'll be perfect for laundry or something else! Good deal!
  • Random thought:
    I'm lurking on F14 right now, and looking at some of the most recent birth stories/announcements, and it kind of makes me sad how few people have "loved it" or offered congrats. Is that what happens at the end of the month? I guess I don't know if they are randoms or drive-bys, but that makes me sad if it's just that people are getting sick of offering congrats by the end of the month!

    Cheep cheep! I am resisting this year. Saw them at Tractor Supply and just walked away. The Murray McMurray catalog is a bit harder to resist but I really don't need to be taking care of new chicks right now! 
    Mom to 5 wonderful kids: 18ds, 15ds, 13ds, 11dd and baby boy! Why get old when you can get pregnant?

    We have seven hens, all of which we've rescued from folks unable to take care of them any longer! Better not to get the chicks.

    I adore how cute chicks are but we can't keep up with the egg situation as it is....MH sells them for a little extra cash.

  • @pepperedmoth we have 16 hens and one rooster, so we have plenty of eggs, too. It's just so hard to resist the baby chicks!!

    These are our hatched babies. We have our egg layers but these are for meat. We either use them or sell them grown. All natural free range no hormones or antibiotics.

  • We are watching numbers on Netflix... They are eating Chinese, so yup I told dh he could order some...I usually don't like it but dang I'm hungry and it looked good!!!
    He handed me the iPad so I could look at the menu... We ended up getting 837373 things after I said I just wanted to share some of his... Mmmmmmmmm it better be delicious!

    Chinese sounds soo good but I dare not - can't handle the swelling as is :-/ Let us know, for those who have to eat vicariously through others ;-)

  • Cramps oh horrible cramps and the irregular contractions are making for a very cranky mamma. T-29 days
  • dotgirl2 said:
    Staring to feel cramps. This is how my contractions started last time, but I'm praying these are BH. I'm only 38 weeks, and we have a major snow/ice storm coming tonight and tomorrow. We could get to the hospital no problem (it's five min away), but I worry no one would be able to come to watch DD. Driving is supposed to be treacherous by morning. Gah!
    I'm starting to feel cramps today too.  I am 38 weeks tomorrow.  I don't think it's much, but it's the only "sign" I've had at all so far.

    too far apart right now :(

    but once one ends, I have BH until the next one starts. 
    :((
    This is exactly what happened to me the night before I had him.
    Maaaaayyyyybeeee this is it!
  • There is no good Chinese food around us :(( there is a good Thai place an hour away though. Maybe a road trip is in order this week :-?
  • I got my belly button back overnight! I probably shouldn't be so excited.

    Also, good luck @kirotea!

  • Got my last u/s today, along with GBS swab and a stupid cervical check, even though I didn't want one. X( Hurt like a bitch, but I had to giggle afterward because I immediately thought "Cheerio or donut?" once the doc left the room afterwards. (I have no idea which, since he didn't say, and y'all don't wanna know anyway.)

    While I was scheduling the next appointment (weekly now, yikes!) some random old 500lbs dude who walked with a cane and a wheeze walked up to me (standing entirely too close) and asked when I was due. Thank goodness he didn't try to go for the belly. @-)
