@SNLT1012 Yep I remember it being super easy at the SS office. Just full out a form and you can change your name to whatever you want pretty much. This topic always reminds me of the Friends episode when Phoebe wants to change her name to Princess Consuela Banana Hammock. lol
Friends is my favorite show. EVER. My friend and I still quote it to this day and it never gets old!
I have no idea how chat works, but my curiosity is in overdrive right now. Can we get a summary tomorrow? I like shit storms and really want to know what's going on. But MH insists that we hang out after DD goes to bed
I want to know what's going on too. I can't get on to chat until after 9 PST when DD goes to bed and even then I'm on mobile so I don't know if it will work. Le sigh.
Are there really medical professionals out there telling pregnant women to eat no seafood? I know we get some dumb questions, but that one astounds me for some reason.

My OB's nurse told me at my last appointment that the seafood "allowance" had been increased. So, I certainly hope not.
ETA: Then again, wasn't someone on here not too long ago saying her doctor told her not to take prenatals or something?
Oh! I want to play the ring game! The engagement ring is vintage, purchased from an antique jeweler. The part I love most is that the sides look like the base of the Eiffel Tower turned upside down. The band is new, just something simple that sort of echoes the intricacies of the e ring.
I mentioned an antique ring to DH, but he was all freaked out (he's weird). Instead he had mine made in a vintage style (that is now very popular lol).
My work computer blocks like half of the posted pictures for some reason. I am sad I can't see all of the lovely rings. I will try to post a pic of mine when I get home. It will probably be too late by then.
Also I had Panera for lunch. It was awesome, but now I fell sick.
@beckyj2013 we send BG 4.0s stuffed with a newborn mf insert and hemp insert. I think part of the reason it lasted so long was that he was dehydrated. That was another discussion I had with one of his teachers this morning.
@jcar I would be so pissed! How can ANYONE, regular teacher or not, think that this was ok? Possible child endangerment, really.
@goofygoff I am the same way about pumpkin things. The texture of the pie is just yuck. However everything else pumpkin is fantastic. I have a couple of cans of pumpkin in the cabinet and I might have to make some pumpkin cupcakes with cinnamon butter cream frosting tonight.
I've been in love with that set for 2 years and now in the span of 2 days I've completely changed everything I thought I wanted in a ring. What is happening to me?!
@hollmb I love their black bean soup when not pregnant. I have their schedule for it memorized. However I can't eat there when pregnant. No matter what I get I throw up every time.
I had a horrific loss dream last night. I haven't had one in a few weeks. Ugh.
Also, I'm really afraid that my HG has stepped up and this is my new norm. If it is, I'm not sure how long I can stave off the hospital and IV fluids. I want to cry.
@MrsLaurenandDan I'm so sorry you feel so awful! I hope you are able to find some relief soon.
I just decided today that this year it will be cheaper for me to send my kids to school with lunches every day instead of having them buy hot lunches. So now I have to go grocery shopping. I'm supposed to be looking up the ads online and finding deals...I'm obviously bumping instead.
Guys, I'm having a doozy of a day. I got to work and my student worker accidently sprayed pepper spray right next to my desk. Luckily I was running late and just missed it, but the whole building was shut down for about an hour. THEN my sitter called, she's throwing up and I had to go pick up my daughter and take her to my friend's for the rest of the day so I could finish up work. On the way, I got stuck in a dust storm. I think we should just call it a day and go home.

We send leftovers from dinner the night before.
---maybe BJ can work on fixing quote boxes instead of deleting threads---
No microwaves for the students to use. And S usually takes the leftovers.

Hey, whoever hasn't clicked on the . thread yet - obvious GBCB, when you do, it will allow you to go to page one, but just when you first click on it. Can someone who hasn't been in yet go in and link the first page to the second? Once you go onto the second, you can't get back to the first.
@SNLT1012 you should check out the blog 100 Days of Real Food and follow her FB page- every day she posts what she packs her kids for lunch and it's TONS of different nutritious, tasty options.

If you have the Walmart app. You shop there and scan your receipt in and they look at the top competitors advertised prices and give you the difference
I do use the app, so far I've saved 3 whole cents! Do you know if they would count coupons too? Like Kroger has deals that are really good but with their Kroger coupons.
Still in shock after 10 years of trying and no luck, in a completely unmedicated cycle, we have two babies. She couldn't comment on viability/heartbeat/etc because she isn't out doctor but she gave a pretty enthusiastic congratulations(which isn't allowed).
@kadeelou hopefully you get them working soon because I want to see someone's little arms and legs. I had mine today and the machine must be archaic because you can barely see anything but two sacs and something inside each one.
Someone else tell me you do this and tell me what should go in it.
What is it?
It's essentially exactly what it sounds like - journaling in bullet format. I got inspired from this: https://bulletjournal.com/
I wanted to start using a planner, more. But the fancy shmancy pretty ones just never work for me. But this looks like it will.
That sounds really cool! It reminds me of my "baby book." Even though I'm 33, as second child, my mom hasn't finished my baby book. But she recently showed me what she has, including a day planner that she took notes of my day in. Stuff like what I ate, who visited, milestones, Dr's appts. I am thinking about doing something similar for LO. I have little patience for long form.
@tla0623 I am so sorry. take care of yourself. This week has been so awful and I am so sad to know of all these losses. There are some wonderful mommas here and you will all be missed.
I don't have much to add on for randoms right now. Thoughts, prayers and huge creepy hugs to everyone.

@tngrl3 @goofygoff Someone posted this recipe on Facebook, it looks amazing!: https://58daydreams.com/2013/10/08/pumpkin-pie-cupcakes-ohhh-yeah/
@SNLT1012 That's almost my ring!
@MrsLaurenandDan I'm so sorry you feel so awful! I hope you are able to find some relief soon.
@Layfi002 yay for a great scan!

You could send food already heated in a thermos.
