Here is my deep, internal, metaphysical debate of the morning.
Bacon or sausage?
Which is the best way to deliver maximum porkage to my facehole?
My lyfe is so haaaard.

cafecreme · August 2014

LOL. I prefer bacon, but I really like the turkey sausage with maple flavoring...Mmmm...

cesquer · August 2014

The answer is most likely yes, but is it possible to feel quickening at 9 weeks? Second pregnancy and already feeling flutters. I don't think it is gas. Could be some muscle spasm deep inside? I swear this is what it felt like last time at like 14 weeks, but seems reeeeeally early. In any case, fun!

I was wondering the same thing. I looked it up. Apparently you can't feel anything until around 12 weeks. Bummer

Why not both? Bacon wrapped sausage?

I get to see Guardians of the Galaxy today!

DH and I savor each movie now like an expensive bottle of wine. We joke that each will be our last for two years.

myjessesgirl · August 2014

Two things:
(1) I bought maternity dresses. Just two, reasonably priced, and wearable right now... Still trying to justify my purchase, though.
(2) I was supposed to go to Baltimore to meet with a college friend and see her new baby, but she canceled due to her bother getting into a car accident. I'm secretly relieved. But not so callous as to not feel bad about the circumstances. Still, the thought of eating lunch at Cheesecake Factory was getting to be unbearable.

I am considering going to the grand opening of a destination motherhood store today (it's also tax free weekend). I don't know what is wrong with me.

I really want some chicken minis and a chocolate shake like woah. I try to avoid chick fil a because they're bigots, but man it is calling my name.

massiejs09 · August 2014

I've been craving butter. {sigh}

FrecklesInside · August 2014

We have delayed the start of our trip a day because of the rain, but this means that we've allowed ourselves more time to get shit ready. There is SO MUCH shit to get ready. Ugh. I'm kind of feeling not so sure about this trip, but I'm hoping it will prove to be fantastic. Every vacation we have taken on the boat has been incredible and those are some of my absolute favorite memories, but, of course, that was sans toddler. I think she's going to love it though and the memories with her will be just as awesome...or it could end up being a nightmare

FrecklesInside · August 2014

I also kind of want a bagel today.

Having religious beliefs and standing behind them is not bigotry. It's not like they changed their stance since they opened.

Not meaning to post and ruin, but I'm heading out lol.

Paying shittons of money to block the rights of others because you're a homophone (whether Jesus told you to or not - despite the fact there's not a single red letter statement about homosexuality) is bigotry.

ETA: I'm not responding to the owner's comments, but their sponsorship of hate organizations and avoided them long before they got so much publicity a year or so ago. Thanks for reaffirming that I shouldn't give in to the craving though.

Um. Yea. This ^^^ Using your religion to justify discrimination and bigotry...is not having religious beliefs and standing by them. Homophobia is not a religious belief. It is bigotry. End of story.

Ditto. For real ditto. Oppressing people is never justifiable with 'religious beliefs'. It ceases to be a belief when you go out of your way to fuck with people, and turns into a weapon of hate. I'm pretty sure your god can take care of his own shit, and doesn't need you to go around doing nasty things in his name.

Also, hilarious development on a related front, the national group for Satanists are now doing a movement to counteract 'informed consent' laws. They are developing a legal form to opt out due to religious belief. That will make for a circus of a court case when it goes to trial (and it will). https://news.vice.com/article/the-satanic-temple-wants-to-use-hobby-lobby-against-informed-consent-abortion-laws

Eh, we just did a controversial topic throwdown, traffic will pick up now :P

transplantedhawkeye · August 2014

DH and I will probably get a new car today to replace our little green Spark that I totaled.

DS's BFF's parents are watching him for us, or we could just use this time and literally fuck around the apartment all day.

Hmmm choices.

wendyld · August 2014

@TikTak‌ that's sweet. I love Charlotte's Web.

mangomimosa · August 2014

First timer crisis - I'm a born skeptic. It usually serves me well. But today I'm finding it hard to wrap my brain around the fact that there is a human growing inside me. The books say the heart should be beating by now, and the cord has formed... but I don't feel it. I haven't seen it. I have virtually no symptoms. I can barely believe this is real. I expect I'll damn well better feel differently after my first u/s... but until then, I'm stuck trying to shake this irrational skepticism. I just don't feel that "loved you before I met you" stuff yet. It's more like "BABY? Inside ME?! Hah! No, science is probably wrong. That only happens to other people." Brain, please get with the program.

I am making my bacon cinnamon rolls this morning!!! I am so excited!

@nomnommama‌ thanks for another Bowie title! I love it!

@FrecklesInside‌ I'm glad you have another day to prepare!

Ps I am also guilty of loving chic fil a even though I think they are evil.

Waaah?! Bacon cinnamon rolls? You must teach me your ways!
ETA if they are anything like my bacon chocolate chip cookies I need them in my belly now!

Does it finally work? Can you see this crazy dance??? Because I think this is how @Toastercat dances. Also, please tell me if it connects you to my FB somehow...

When you see that little squish on the screen, you'll fall in love. Guarantee.

On the boardwalk they had bacon covered fries, and chocolate covered bacon.

I've always felt that immediate love thing, but I've talked to PLENTY of moms who didn't feel that their whole pregnancy, and even after LO is here. You aren't a monster if your baby comes out and you aren't all love at first sight. It is actually really incredible how many moms this happens to.

Again, no personal experience, but I wouldn't worry because you aren't alone. That said, I think it is pretty likely once you see LO, or especially once you start feeling LO, you will feel differently. But if you don't - don't worry or beat yourself up over it.

@nomnommama‌ Bacon, dipped in maple syrup. @ToasterCat‌ those cinnamon rolls sound amazing. Make me some? @FrecklesInside‌ have fune on your trip! That sounds like fun. How long are you on the boat? Do you stop places or just sail away? We are on our way to my husband's family reunion. Hardly any of them have met Spencer. I hope they all want to play with him so I can stuff my face with delicious food and not have to worry about him. Im really trying to keep my MOTY award

We stop places. If you're at all familiar with Long Island Sound, we go to Nappatree point (known as Watch Hill by land) and then out to Block Island. When we have a two week trip, we go out to Cuttyhunk and Martha's Vineyard, but we only have one week this summer.

janda426 · August 2014

And I'm getting out of bed to go make the cinnamon rolls in my fridge.

I woke up like 5 times last night. I'm worried it's because I didn't take my unisom and my sleep schedule is becoming "addicted" to it

blah. Only 3 more weeks of first tri, hopefully the nausea goes away by then because I hate taking all these meds

WinningColors · August 2014

Forget breakfast, I'm already thinking about dinner. I want nachos. Lots of nachos.

What @FrecklesInside added here is great and so important. My best friend was a major PPD sufferer with her first child, and she is a totally awesome mom. I learned a lot through her experience.

But even on a lighter level, I relate to what you describe, @mangomimosa. My baby is dearly, dearly wanted, but that doesn't stop me from feeling a level of detachment from what is going on inside me. The 8 week ultrasound did change my feelings a lot, but not completely. I think each phase of pregnancy will deepen the reality that this crazy process that makes a woman into a mother is something that is actually happening to me

MrsLaurenandDan · August 2014

Good morning! Cinnamon rolls sound amazing! But I'm having oatmeal drowned in brown sugar instead.

I need to hurry to eat and shower. My BFF and her son (O's BFF) have been OOT for 2 weeks and they just got back so we are meeting them at the park. Owen is going to be so flipping excited. He's been talking about how he misses his buddy all week. They are adorable.

I can relate to this a lot. Even after my first ultrasound at 7 weeks, I'm still somewhat in disbelief that this is really happening. I think it will be a slow build process for me until it all sinks in.

marg81 · August 2014

I'm so happy. After my appt yesterday was a little depressed. The midwife couldn't get baby's heartbeat on the doppler she thought she heard a quick sound,but lost it. I got him today on my home doppler I have been trying for over a week and this is the first time. Saw nice numbers of 169 and slightly higher on the screen. It's a beautiful sound! Today I am 10 weeks. It's amazing what a day can make.

psychbear · August 2014

I could not stomach dinner last night at all. I was so hungry but NOTHING was working. H surprised me with s'mores he made on the bbq. I though he was crazy, but it was delicious! This morning I woke up to a honey lemonade. He's my new nausea-whisperer.

mangomimosa · August 2014

Thanks ladies. Glad to know I'm not alone. @cygnet15 Love that last sentence. I totally agree.

@TikTak PPD is such an asshole. So glad to hear you made it through & feel bonded with your daughter now! FX you aren't affected this time around, or at least that it's not as severe. I am terrified of PPD... we actually waited for a spring EDD because my depression is the worst in the winter.

mommyofkaylin · August 2014

I'm up north visiting my in laws this weekend. None of their doors lock and can easily be opened so I'm terrified my daughter will just walk out the door in the middle of the night. Also we had to sleep on the floor and my hips hurt.
