Sometimes I don't believe people and their stories about strangers saying rude things to them.
Maybe it's my chronic bitch face but I can't imagine going in public and having multiple people comment on my size. I've yet to get a rude stranger comment or belly rub.
I find the resting bitch face works well, welcome to Boston. However I've recently had people asking me "Are you alright?" Apparently I look sick or something.

I hate making phone calls and for some reason I've been putting off calling the hospital and finding out when the next L&D tour is.....I'm not sure why I find this so terrifying and I don't have much time left
Haha we must be related. Me and all my siblings have phone anxiety and will even text someone else to order a pizza for us
Ditto, foodler is the best thing ever
@serenla What is foodler? Is it a magic food orderer so I don't have to talk to anyone on the phone?
It is amazing foodler.com allows you to order food online with participating restaurants. No phone call required.

Just refused what would have been my 5th cervical check and demanded to see the attending when the resident told me that I won't go home til Friday. Come the fuck on its Wednesday.
@kcp913 - Absolutely it calls for cake! We are celebrating 6mos on the 20th, and I fully intend on pulling the last chunk of our wedding cake out of the freezer for it. Then, when our one year rolls around, I can be like "ooops look what happened on accident" and order an ENTIRE new cake in our wedding flavors. MUAHAHAHA!
Went out to lunch with my mom and DH. We got finished eating and the server looked at me and said - "do you want a dessert menu?" And I said "oh no, I'm full." "Are you sure?"
I wasn't offended but thought it was funny how he just asked the preggo lady. Or he could read my mind because I did in fact, want dessert...regrets.
Hi ladies! I can't catch up! I miss you all so much! Lucas has been naughty and his blood sugar is borderline not so hot. He's nursing like a champ today and levels are starting to stabilize! I haven't slept since 6 am yesterday... Hello zombie. @jellysparkles answering this from a few pages back I just took a shower and was encouraged to get my incision wet.
Also DH is amazing. He has been so good with the baby! He also helped me shower watching blood run down my leg, washed me, and dried me, and dressed me. I couldn't be more in love with this amazing man!
Today is our 3 year anniversary, but no cake. I'm too lazy to make one, and DH won't be home until late anyway. We are celebrating at some point next week
I was dead set on not having my mom in the hospital room with me until this last few days in the hospital. I feel like she has so much more insight then my SO & I on everything and she was so helpful when it came to talking to drs and nurses where I felt like some drs/nurses talked at me and they talked to her. Downfall of looking young I guess..
And because I'm a special snowflake, here's my HDBD instead of putting it in the thread. 33.5w
Looking awesome Swerb!!!
Right I know im dragging something up from hrs ago, but I was asleep!! and Im posting here not the other thread because I don't want to drag it back to page 1.
@HeatherDonovan, I'm sorry you got stick in your HDBD post, of course you can post it! We are NOT Feb14 where only one person can start the post, and only at the right hour! The only reason I started another one (which I admit was probably poorly named) is because I saw that one had turned a bit into a GIFathon (I blame sleep addled brains! most of those posts were put up in the small hrs of the night, I believe) and I didn't think people would post legitimate HDBD posts.
I want you to know that I DO NOT believe that I am the only one who can post early, I was being very tongue in cheek about that, and actually thought everyone else was as well. However reading back it sound like I'm having a moan that someone else dared post early, and I am the only one allowed to.
To my fellow RTT posters, loved the GIF's - @Vinny424 best sheep GIF ever, I am so stealing that. And I just want to add a REAL map to the GIFs

Can't wait till Saturday, I am hosting my 3 yr old bday party and the menu consists of "all the things" I want... BBQ hot dogs, baked beans, mac and cheese, spinach dip, fried oreos and of course CAKE!! Thankfully my 3 yr old likes all these foods...lol
Do any of you supermoms (or superwives) have a good go-to website for cheap/easy dinner ideas? I am completely out of creative energy when it comes to making supper and grocery shopping!
Totally forgot (reminded by people talking about strangers rude comments) I got my first stranger belly touch on Sunday! And I was doing a sales thing so I really couldn't have done anything about it if I wanted to go through with the sale. I really didn't mind it though, I just felt very strange about it.
Also, my mom keeps talking about me going early. Nope. Not ready, I need this 3 weeks and with SO's work, she really can only come a week early. And SO and I thoroughly explained that to her last night. So while on the phone with my mom talking about her coming early, I was like "Well she can't come today because right now all the roads are closed, the thruway is closed, and weather is shit. So I would be having her in my bath tub, by myself, with no chance of SO getting back here in the next day. So dear little daughter, be smart, wait it out" And now I keep picturing how I would handle a water birth in my bath tub by myself while ambulances try with no success to get to my house.
Why do my boobs look so good? Then I peed on a stick...
My kitty has been acting so weird since last night. He's slept from 5pm-6am, except to get up and stretch, then right back to sleep. He didn't even eat his wet food, which literally makes his day.
I'm thinking it's just a cold or allergies though, because he got up with DH and was flirting with him when he was getting ready for work. He drank out of the sink (only way he'll drink a lot of water), went pee in his litter box and now he's back to sleep on the heater vent. He usually is freaking out to get outside, and he hasn't even cried at the door.
UGH I really hope it's not more serious than allergies or a cold. I can not afford any vet bills right now!
Hmm. Any vomiting? Sneezing? Wheezing? Or coughing?
Or did he get vaccines recently?
And does he go outside or do you have multiple cats?
Cats won't eat if they have a fever or their nose is stuffy and they can't smell their food.
Sometimes they get a slight fever from vaccines, or could get a fever from a cat/wild animal bite that gets infected and forms an abscess.
If his nose is a little stuffy take kitty in the bathroom and run a steamy shower ( don't put the cat in the shower) this can help loosen things up for them.
Try warming the canned food up. Cats like to be able to smell their food and boy does it smell when it's been warmed up.
He sounds just a little under the weather, hopefully it passes soon. Check him all over for bits, scratches, or lumps.
Edit: saw he does go outside so definetly check for battle scars
No vomiting or coughing. He had herpes in his eye when he was a baby so sometimes he wheezes and sneezes, and I'll take him to the vet and nothing is wrong.
He's had all of his vaccines and from what we can tell he hasn't gotten in a fight. I'll keep my eye out for a cut, but he doesn't seem tender anywhere. I had a cat when I was a kid that got in fights all the time, and I know what to look for, and I don't see anything.
He's also not running a fever. He's not warm anywhere, or crying when we touch him (which is what happened last time when he ran a fever).
I'll try warming his food and see if he's interested....Thank you!!
My younger cats have herpes. I give them a l-lysine supplement on their food when they are symptomatic for about a month. If he doesn't perk up or eat soon I would take him to the vet. Cats are notorious for hiding illness, lethargy & change in eating would make me take in my cats. I hope everything checks out.
They def have herpes flare ups so could be all it is.
I've heard of lysine. One continuing Ed I went to said its not very effective. But we have a few clients that use it and they seem happy with it. Won't hurt them so is worth a try.
Ugh did anyone else have a huge headache setting up their bills on auto-pay? I did it beginning of February so I'd have time to babysit my March bills and make sure the deductions were happening, and so far both Comcast AND Xcel Energy dropped the ball. Idiots. So now I've just been making phonecalls all morning to fix it when all I wanted to do was not have to worry about manually paying bills for the first couple months of baby's life.
WHY do all my patients seem to think I want to see them naked!!!! I am still talking to you, do not start stripping off! I do NOT want to see your breasts!

Update on fear of phone calls: I called and of course the person didn't answer so I left a message to as to why I was calling. Here's to hoping they call me back. I actually emailed this person weeks ago and they never responded.
~Missed MC at 8 weeks. D&C at 12 weeks on 4/17/13~
I must have an exceedingly good resting bitch face. I just hauled my carcass downstairs to answer the door, opening it to some random dude in a hoodie and sunglasses. Raised my eyebrow at him, he paled a shade or two and stuttered that he must have had the wrong house, then backed down from our "porch" while telling me he was sorry.
You'd better be, asshole, do you have any idea how hard it is for me to navigate stairs anymore?!

That would totally freak me out.

@katieharpiceland - That would be AWESOME!!!! I seriously debated buying a bunch of pregnancy tests and telling them that if they know anyone who is interested, I'll be selling them out of my van to raise money for my kid's college tuition. LIMITED TIME ONLY!!!

Obviously not an AL football fan...by the way his cousin is also a football player named Pig. I think he plays for TN.
