Haha so glad I clicked on this. Those are some sexy boots for sure.
T&P request for my SIL & soon-to-be niece. Today marks the start of her 4th day of induction & she's only made it to 4 cm. She's beyond exhausted. I know this is far from anything she imagined the birth if her 1st baby would be like. So worried about her & the baby, and terrified she'll hemorrhage and/or get chorio... I just want this to not be a traumatizing experience for her, at least not more than it already has been.
@totesmcgotes good luck with potty training. We did it last month. Hope your little catches on quick!
My ILs rented a place 5 blocks from my apt since July 1. This weekend is their last. I can't even wait for them to go home. Just keep swimming, just keep swimming.
I had the STRANGEST dream last night...I was abducted to another planet, where I grew a second set of boobs...with tassels. This is what I get for going to see Guardians of the Galaxy and eating sausage and pepperoni pizza late at night!
BTW, that was one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time. You should all go see it!
My appointment yesterday has made all the difference for how I feel about being pregnant. I can finally relax and bond with the idea. I've already started to talk to the little mite without thinking about it :P. Last night it was "Let's go do laundry!"
It went great. He's the best boss ever, so I wasn't worried. Even though the timing is somewhat inconvenient since our museum is building a huge expansion which is supposed to open mid march and I obviously won't be able to help (much) when they will need it most.
On a different note, I can't get bagels and cream cheese out of my head. So I must go toast my bagel now.
T&P to your SIL @mangomimosa! That sounds exhausting!
I forgot to take my unison last night. You think I would remember to take the one thing the prevents me from puking, but no. FX I don't puke all over the place today.
Yikes! I hope you make it!
I forgot to take my progesterone a couple days ago and it was the first day in a long time I actually felt good! Back at it last night and asleep by 830. I can't wait for 9w so I can stop taking it.
K let me sleep in a bit. Our to do list today to get ready for vacation makes me feel exhausted just thinking about it. Make it go away!!!!
Also, I'll be on less next week which makes me sad. But I'm even more sad about the fact that I won't be able to get into chat EVAH. It doesn't work from my phone.
My aunt emailed me to tell me her and her three kids won't be coming to DD's party in two weeks because they'll be "out of town" which really means she's going out to Massachusetts again to visit family and go to the beach, which she does almost every single weekend of the summer. Really? You can't be home for my daughter's first birthday party?? Meanwhile every year I go to her kids' massive clusterfuck of a party and watch them act like monsters and throw the gifts people give them on the floor. This year I'll be skipping their party, I'm pissed.
Everything looks great! Baby is measuring perfectly and has a heartbeat of 181! We got to hear the heartbeat too! J and I both teared up. Pictures will come later - they gave us a cd, so I'll have to get to a computer.
My doc's office is at the hospital where we will give birth, so we are having breakfast and checking out the lay of the land in the hour until our OB appt.

The bloat post bothers me for no good reason. Too many lol, I'm soooo big, lol type people. So many unrecognizable faces squeeing over bloat...and I had to comment on the WalMart comment..because...klassy. BUT LOL.
On that note: Why do some people use lol as a period? Like it has to come at the end of every sentence they write. Or use it when it doesn't even make sense. They'll say something negative and say lol. It's like it's a nervous tick or something. I don't get it. But I immediately write someone off if they use it like that.

------- Here's a new topic of discussion. It's the middle of summer and my legs look like it's the middle of an snow apocalypse.
I made 2 loaves of cinnamon swirl bread Wednesday night. There are only 2 pieces left this morning. I tell myself it's ok to eat a lot because being homemade=healthier. Right? Right?
I was happy to see all of the great appointments yesterday. It made me very hopeful!

It does seem like a nervous tick, like the people who giggle after every sentence.

Here's a new topic of discussion. It's the middle of summer and my legs look like it's the middle of an snow apocalypse.
Why did you quote me when you had nothing to say about what I had said?
Mmmmm bagels. I have my 9w ultrasound at 2 PM today. Really hoping that "small pool of blood" in my ute has gone away. I really really really want a drama-free pregnancy!

I am on my fifth bagel with cream cheese this week, all because of the random threads.
I just had 2nd breakfast and it's only 9:30am. Whole wheat Bagel with egg and cheese. I can't seem to get to 10am without having one every day this week.

We're leaving for vacation tonight, and I'm so stressed about finishing packing and the 6 hour car ride. Hopefully the beach will be worth it!
Also, what's the chat you're referring to? I've seen it mentioned a few times, and I'm clueless.
@FrecklesInside I was broaching a new subject, rather than speak about stomach bloat.
This may have just got a little awkward.
Aw well. I tried.
Yea, it looked more like you were attempting to point out what I was saying and then ignore it to make a passive aggressive statement about how you felt about what I said by then changing the subject.
It certainly was weird. As was trying to describe how it looked on my end. Whatevs.
Speaking of bagels, at prenatal yoga on Wed, our instructor randomly started talking about how your pelvis shifts to widen for baby, which will end up giving you a pelvic passage the size of a bagel. She did a hand gesture for the bagel and everything.
@ToasterCat - I need you to fix me! I'm broken today! I just posted on someone's "update" because it was their first post ever on the board and I still REALLY don't get when people do that.
But I usually don't say anything...
I'm in a MOOD. Fix the MOOD BeautyFarts!! Fix it!
Maybe it is because too many fraaaans are not around in the bat cave this morning to distract me. At least I didn't make any Ina May spirit animal comments.

Shout out and loves to my homeslice @estamos_tomamos.
Sending my thoughts to your Sil @mangomimosa
GL today @CoozieInMyPurse !
@CoozieInMyPurse GL!! Keep us posted!
I think @estamos_tomamos was getting betas today? If so GL & FX sooo hard for you girl!

Morning lovelies. Nothing quite so random to report but wanted to say hey.
Except that I forgot to mention yesterday that there was totes a bar in my college town called Kinky Boots and it was pretty awesome.
@mangomimosa Hoping happy labor thoughts for your SIL
@nomnommama I'm guessing the ILs are too much and that's why you're glad they're moving away? Either way YAY for you!
@coozieinmypurse
Can't wait to hear how it goes!
"Serious is only something you have to be until you can be silly again."My doc's office is at the hospital where we will give birth, so we are having breakfast and checking out the lay of the land in the hour until our OB appt.
ETA- reared is not the same thing as teared.
