    @Lizzy42 are you scheduled to be induced?  I HATE when people ask me that but I wondered what your game plan was since you seem to be the furthest along (most overdue).

    Nevermind, I saw your BS thread that I had already read.  Your siggy threw me off.  Congrats, again :)

  • Why with every LC I've encountered in the past 3 years, does it look like they're either not wearing a bra, or still wearing unsupportive nursing bras?

    Am I the only one who checks out the boobs on their LCs?

    I love the baby getting down in your signature, I've been watching it far too long!
  • @smig0714‌ our pup is coming home tomorrow and I'm super nervous about it. Sounds like you had a good experience! I'm just hoping he manages to stay calm...damn puppy energy!

    Why are there no push up nursing bras? C'mon bra makers, help me defy gravity and help our LC ladies!

  • There's story that's going viral about how a family had a photographer friend document their dog's last day before they had him put to sleep due to a fast spreading cancer that had already taken one of his legs. It's sweet and beautiful.... and now I'm sitting here ugly crying instead of getting ready to go to dinner with SO.

    Damn you hormones.

    I won't read it for that reason! My pugs are 12 and 13...I don't wanna acknowledge the fact that they aren't going to be around forever!!!!

  • So, we've got a major storm going on over here. I really hope it doesn't knock our power out. MOTN Breastfeeding without power is no fun.

    @Matthew930‌ how is it in your area so far?

    @jensavicci‌ - it's past us now (moving toward you i think). FOR ONCE we didn't lose power. Just some flickers that messed with DS'S monitor :) some heavy wind for like 10 minutes or so, and monsoon rain...it was like a river down our driveway! I hope you guys keep your power and stay dry!

    Not sure if another cell is coming through, but the sky is bright right now!
    Which area are you in? I'm glad it wasn't too bad for you guys. We live on a hill though and at the end of the street the water always builds up so, I know there will be flooding :( plus, it's crazy rain and lightening over here. Oh well. Lol I've got candles that need burning just incase ;)

    You're in Philly too, right @pintsizemama15‌ ?

    I'm officially trying to naturally induce! I had lots of pineapple, been having a lot more sex (tmi). My last BMB, lengua (beef tongue)was a big deal. Yes cows tongue! I know to some it may sound disgusting, it really is good though. I may get a lengua taco tomorrow.

    I know I've seen some other natural inducing foods around here, but I can't remember. I literally can't breathe, I called into work today because my nights of sleep are down to nothing. As many of us still with inside babies, I just want this baby to come on out and greet the family.

    Eta: I know these are OWT but I'm just going with wishful thinking. :D

    Damn you hormones.

    Omg I'm bawling. We had to put our 3yr old black lab down in January bc of cancer. I shouldn't have read that but what a sweet story.

    I also basically cried my way through the new planet of the apes movie yesterday. I swear I'm more emotional at the end of this pregnancy.
    hi

  • ......and sometime between when we were over there and now SO's mom acquired a kitten. She texts us with a picture with the caption "Now I have a new baby too! I bet he and Ace will be best friends!"

    Ummm, joke's on her since apparently she forgot her son is seriously allergic to cats. I guess we now have a legitimate excuse to avoid her house as much as possible.

    She is a HOT mess!

    Mister caught me looking at my ass crack to see if there was a line relating to dilation the other night. Lol.

    what? Now I need to google buttcrack dilation lines! One more fun thing to obsess over.

    May have NSFW photos: https://birthwithoutfearblog.com/2013/06/06/alternative-methods-of-checking-dilation-the-purple-line-and-more/ The best way to describe this is, looking at the anus, a purple line will appear and, throughout labor, move up the natal cleft (butt crack for us laypeople)

  • Damn, I totally meant to check for a butt crack line when I was dilated. I was kind of distracted though...

    Also, I've been purposely avoiding reading that dog tribute story because I know I will freaking lose my shit even more than I normally would. Postpartum hormones + lack of sleep = ALL THE CRIES.

  • You know what sucks? Being barely awake trying to get the baby back to sleep and having the house shake from an earthquake. Now I'm fully awake....that thing scared the heck out of me and DH got woken up by my initial freak out. Thankfully DD is still asleep. Its going to take forever to fall back asleep, now.

    @ghostof5letters‌ OK. They're regular occurrences here over the last several years. :/

  • I had to take my ipad back to the office yesterday for the girl who's covering for me to use while I'm out.  Boo.  There goes my easy bump time.  Had to get the laptop out so I could get caught up with everything.
  • So LO has discovered he can roll onto his side and now refuses to lay on his back. Changing diapers is now a rousing game of, "which way will he roll?"

    I'm laughing because we have the same problem. He also hates sleeping on his back and ends up rolling on his side. It makes me smile. He did it yesterday at the doctors and they were amazed. Quite the determined little man I have.

  • So does anyone know if Cytotec can be used after your water breaks?  It was never recommended when I was in labor with DS and only at a 3.  I have a terrible feeling, this labor is going to be very similar since I am only sitting at a 2 and "not ready".

    i have no idea about hospital drugs to get contractions/dilation going after your water breaks, but for the love of Christ do not take castor oil to get it going "naturally".  i learned that the hard way. i won't elaborate.
