  • I must admit every time I saw TIA I just thought it was the persons name in caps. Learned what it stood for yesterday. Man I am dumb. Haha

    Yes even if it is her own buisness tip. Where I go it is 50 for an hour or 30 for 30 mins. If I have a hour I tip 10 and 30 mins I tip 5. She has lower rates compared to most spas in our area. Private places are often least expensive but better treatment.

    I'm getting a prenatal massage on Thursday. Its the lady's own business (it's just her), and I'm not sure if I should tip her or not. Would you tip her and if so how much? I'm used to tipping 20%, but it's always for people who do not own their business and the money doesn't go directly to them. TIA!
    I always tip. And I try to always tip cash to masseuses.

  • Home alone for 3 days and of course I stepped on a piece of glass. Efff. :( I cant even see it to attempt getting it out. Just blood. Letting it soak. But so far no luck :(
  • Why are the contractions and general pains so much worse at night??? I'm not one to complain too much about pregnancy, but damn...the last few nights have sucked. 

    My exact thoughts! When i get up in the middle of the night half the time its to pee the other half is from contractions or leg cramps that i hardly feel during the day.. weird
    Same here! Any burst of actual contractions I've had are all at night. I can't make sense of it! Even my OB thought it was weird. She said usually false labor STOPS when you lay down and relax. I'm chalking it up to another weird unexplainable pregnancy thing.
  • Dammit, stuck.  This is terrible and hilarious!  I found it on a March '15 siggy.

  • Carter's is having their clearance sale now because the fall line has come in plus 20% off everything (including clearance items). Definitely in store (got baby girl some cute summer dresses!), don't know about online.
  • I'm getting really annoyed with DH's family being idiots about me putting sunscreen on the kids.

    "Don't they tan? Why do you put sunscreen on them?"
    "I've never worn it before, that's why I'm always so brown every summer."
    "It's overcast, there's not even any sun."

    "face-palm"...you don't try explaining it to them, do you?  i feel like it would go in one ear and out the other anyway...

     

     

  • @Matthew930 Nope. I don't try. His cousin's kid asked me for some one day and when I went to spray it on him, his grandmother (DH's aunt) said "You don't even need that stuff! You're going to tan anyway." He turned to me and said "Why do you put it on you kids?"

    "Because I don't like the idea of skin cancer," I said.

    DH's aunt looked up and said "We don't think about that kind of stuff." Ooookay.

    @summerlovin314 Right?! I get burned in just the tiniest bit of sun and it's just not worth it. The kids do brown like little gingerbread men, but apparently my ILs think sunscreen prevents that and not, y'know, actual SKIN damage.

    I have died every day waiting for you. Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years. And all along I believed I would find you, time has brought your heart to me. I have loved you for a thousand years. I'll love you a thousand more.
  • I just sent BIL, the one that lives in our basement, a pretty scathing text message about how fucking fed up I was with everything. He NEEDED to hear it, but I'm so non-confrontational that I'm scared to check my texts to see what he replied back with... ugh. This is what happens when you're a middle child. YOU JUST WANT TO KEEP THE PEACE.

    I'm worried I'll start backtracking and I'll end up apologizing for what I said, which is the dumbest thing in the world. Why can't I just stand up for my family and me without feeling guilty FOR ONCE?

    How do you ladies do this? I wanna be a bad bitch like this.

  • Champagne may well be the thing I've missed the most...I might have to get a bottle to meditate on to get this baby out.

  • My DH keeps asking me if my birth ball is going to pop. 

    For some reason i find it hilarious. 

    "You're totally going to kill your ass if that pops.."

    "ARE you sure it's not going to pop?"

    Also i installed the car seat and didn't have the panic attack i thought i would. Woot!

  • Sumo baby FTW! He's measuring large and in charge. If I make it to my due date with no dilation, it's c section city. They will only induce if I start dilating in the next couple of weeks.

    bunkgirl said: So I just got off the phone with my mom and she pointed out that while we are vacationing on the beach in August we will also celebrate my sister's birthday.  The BEST BAKERY IN THE WORLD is near our cottage and I am so excited about my sister's birthday cake AND the fact that I can eat as much as I'd like without worrying about GD.  This has made my week!
    PS: Yes, I am this excited about cake.

    I would be that excited too...trust me. It's been over two years since I had DS (and had GD with him too). I went to two weddings in the two months after he was born. Circumstances led to me not getting cake at
    either wedding and I am still bitter about it to.this.day. No lie.

  • My stinker LO just decided to flip into a breech position today at 38 1/2 weeks. >.< it was very uncomfortable. Hope she flips again though! Bah.
  • Holy shit we just almost killed a roadside construction worker, thank GOD DH was paying super close attention. The guy tripped and fell into the road RIGHT IN FRONT OF US. I can't even believe how bad that almost was....
