  • I also like you gif don't like Spam. I ate it once and I gagged. I find it nasty. My grandmother loves it and fries it up and then makes sandwiches out of it.

    My random for today, I am doing laundry and dishes but in between time I am catching up on the last 4 episodes of The Following I have missed. After I am caught up on this I 100% plan on catching up on Resurrection. So I am telling my DH I am doing housework but I am only 1/2 telling the truth. The baby is passed out for a nap and I am about to enjoy an ice cream cone :) 
  • LO has only rolled back to tummy once and tummy to back once. I'm getting concerned. She's great at tummy time and we are practicing sitting up. But no rolling :(

    I've never actually had it.  My DH likes to make fun of the list of things I've never actually had, which includes: most cereals, bologna, Spam, Twinkies.  I didn't have white bread until I was 18.  I tried Lucky Charms when I was away at college. Flame Free Thursday Confession: I had it as a snack after dinner and the sugar made it hard for me to sleep that night because apparently I have the metabolism of a five year old...?

  • @riv06marce‌ DH crawled before he rolled over. His mom says it's because he was a fat baby. He evened out lol.

    Also, I really want Maui Wowie pizza from Mellow Mushroom.

    The end.

  • I scheduled an IEP for DS so he can receive speech in the fall. I'm glad he is going to finally have some help. I had a root canal this morning and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. They had donuts in the waiting room! Seriously? Donuts at the dentists office. Haha I laughed. I totally bought a frap from Starbucks afterwards to make me feel better. :D
  • Why the fuck haven't I used a manual pump before today?!! This is like 7 minutes only of pumping!! And it fits in my purse!
    I haven't used my Ameda electric since DD was 10 weeks old.  That sh*t's for the birds.

  • I know this has been asked a gajillion times before, but what is so great about the manual pump? Doesn't your hand get tired?

    I've been having a hard time dragging my butt out of bed to pump so if it's that good maybe I need a manual to help!
  • Finn had his 4-month appointment today. Everything is okay, except he had a sacral dimple. (A little hole above his bum.) I guess it's a possible sign of spins bifida or other spinal problems. He doesn't have the bad signs (tufts if hair or skin discolorations), that typically are found with problems, so he's likely fine. However, the pedi is sending him to get an ultrasound just to make sure his spinal cord is okay.

    It's so weird because he's super strong, rolling, pushing up, etc. Spinal issues really weren't on my radar, but now I'm stressed. I want my little guy to be okay...

    Fingers crossed that it has no clinical significance!

  • Fingers crossed for Finn! I will be praying for you guys, Missy.
  • @MissyC979‌ I am so sorry that you're worried. What an emotional roller coaster for you recently. Sending y'all T&Ps and good vibes!
  • Good vibes to you Missy!!

    Random from work- I think I just had a mild heart attack. As some of you know I work in a hog barn, so that equals mice, bugs ect. I was sitting here in the office very still and quiet reading this thread and I felt something tickle my feet (don't wear shoes in our office, just socks) I look down and it's a fucking huge mouse climbing on my foot!!!!!!! I squealed like a little girl and kicked it across the room.

    OMG I had a heart attack just reading that. UGH that is so gross but I seriously hate mice! 
  • @MissyC979‌ Thinking of you and Finn!

    RE: manual pumping

    I got very little with my electric after awhile -- it's an Ameda, and it just lost its suction after like two months.  Terrible.  My manual gets the same amount as I was originally getting but in less time.

    ETA: No, my hand doesn't get sore.

    Thanks everyone. The pedi being concerned enough to send us for an ultrasound just took me by surprise. She is a little "test happy," so I'm hoping it really is just nothing.

    The sweetest thing just happened. My DH just had flowers delivered for me and for my Mom. I was texting with DH about how depressed I'm feeling today and how my Mom is also really upset--I think everything is hitting her today, since she's been pretty numb up until now. Isn't that super sweet that he had flowers delivered for each of us? Total Husband of the Year material there. :)

    So sweet, fingers crossed its nothing serious.

    Getting sad and frustrated that my LO still hasn't rolled over at all. He is 19 weeks old today.

     

  • Why the fuck haven't I used a manual pump before today?!! This is like 7 minutes only of pumping!! And it fits in my purse!

    That is awesome! What model is it? Or is there only one manual Medela?

    FX to you and Finn.

    Hopefully it is nothing and the doctor is just being overly cautious. Our LO was being monitored for some hip issues after birth and even though we had talked through all the scenerios and none were too serious, it was still stressful until LO had an ultrasound and finally given the all clear. So I understand your worry and hopefully they can schedule his ultrasound for sooner rather than later.

    Hey there, as the Dec momma with a child with Spina Bifida I can share what I know about SB. First off chances are your baby is fine. If you child does have an issue it would have been discovered earlier. Mine was discovered at 20 week a/s. 
    I hope the ultrasound goes well. if you want to talk PM me. I can share more.
    Sending hugs that your LO is fine and Dr is just being cautious!

    I haven't used my electric on about a week. It was such a hassle at work since I need to use coconut oil and a heating pad...there's no less time I'm pumping but SO much less of a hassle. Then at home, it's so loud and DH and I watch our shows together and it's just annoying. All hail the manual.

    ETA: it's my birthday month too!!! :)

    Thanks so much for reaching out. I knew there was a child on here with spina bifida and I thought it was your baby, but I wasn't positive. I'm really hoping the dimple is nothing, since it doesn't seem to be too deep and there is no hair, skin discoloration, or skin tags. We go for the ultrasound next Friday.

I squealed like a little girl and kicked it across the room.

    I live in the country, and we occasionally get field mice in our garage. We have traps set in every corner. This morning when I opened the door from the house to the garage there was a mouse trap in the middle of the garage. It was right by my car door. There was a mouse in it and it was still alive (I think the trap only got its leg). It made my heart skip a few beats. I hate mice. Good thing my husband was still home and took care if it. If he wasn't home I might not have went to work, or I might have went in the passenger side door of my car. Maybe I would have put my big girl panties on and got a shovel and threw the mouse and trap in the yard.

  • Happy birthday all!! :) 

    I'm a PW today, I apologize, but having a minor heart attack right now.  I just got roped into performing in "Company X's Got Talent!" tomorrow.  My Exec Director walked by my office and said "VP'S OFFICE.  NOW." sternly, so I followed him. DAMN ME!!!!! 

    I was handed a tambourine and am now a back-up singer for "Ho Hey".  We just had three dry runs in the VP's office and I will admit I am NOT looking forward to getting up in front of 3,000 colleagues tomorrow.  Everyone else will have had wine and beer to help with nerves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(:(
