RE: Side sleeping = hands/arms falling asleep.

My remedy, is to use my pregnancy pillow but sort of lean on my back, letting the pillow support me... as opposed to leaning towards my stomach. It helps a lot and I have a lot less numbness.

Also, I just wanted to add that I have been extremely exhausted this week, and fell asleep around 9pm last night. I am so excited to have a weekend without any social engagements. I plan to do nothing.

I dreamt I was at the dentist getting dental work done most of the night.

Also, I am having some terrible back pain. Not muscle pain...but honestly I feel it in my backbone. It is terribly uncomfortable and no amount of rest makes it go away.

jaztastic · September 2014

@starbeth51 good luck today at your scan!!

bhjones1980 · September 2014

working from home with a toddler is a mess... my Mom convinced me that we should keep him home from daycare today since she was feeling better and could "watch him" while I work (she just cant pick him up).

He is currently destroying my home office.

jaztastic · September 2014

Hey im noticing a lot of new faces on the thread today... I think its great!! Yaaaaaa!!!!

@MaddScientist how are things going? I feel like Ive "seen you around" but havent really talked to you much. How did your observation/evaluation go?

psychobutthead · September 2014

I wish next week would already be overso I can find out LO`s sex.

Dh still wants a baby shower. I still don`t.

My MIl is being nasty to me again, nothing new there. My inlaws are planning a trip for Hawaii in February. I think the first week. An ebil part of me is hoping Lo is born while their gone mwhahahaha.

My inlaws intend on waiting in the waiting room the whole time Im in labor. I dont understand why it seems pointless to me. Plus if tueythink they will be bursting into the room as soon as lo is born they are sadly mistaken.

It didn't. The lady forgot to put it on her calendar and never showed up. We rescheduled for next Tuesday afternoon. Luckily I can continue my surgeries without completing the assessment first. I have been trying to be more productive at work - so haven't been commenting as much.

chickyclg · September 2014

Somebody help talk sense into me with pregnancy dreams. I dreamt that we were going to lose Baby A, and needless to say I woke up a hysterical mess. I think it's because we had a hard than normal time finding one of the babies with the Doppler last night, but still that's not something anyone wants to dream about. Pregnancy dreams suck!

I guess we should all take a page out of your book... I know I have stuff to catch up on. But I convince myself that I'll focus "tomorrow". lol

@WanderingA‌ - we have a small carry on of toys. We wrap her toys in paper so it takes longer to open, and give her a new one every twenty minutes or so. Also, we are bad parents and let her watch Barney :-S

This!!! And that is not being a bad parent @jmcgra06 that is being a smart parent!! I fly on my own with Ella quite often, for about 7 hours, split into two flights. Mickey on her tablet is the only thing that gets everyone through those trips.

@WanderingA bring a few new toys so they hold her attention longer. Snacks you know she enjoys. And be sure to nurse/give her water or milk on take off and landings so her ears wont hurt. Good luck!

Oh Im sorry for the awful dream @chickyclg. Try not to dwell on it, it was just a dream!! ((Hugs))

Longshot...but does anyone have a Pottery Barn Kids coupon code they aren't going to use?

thegoodpotato · September 2014

1) I also noticed a new avatar or two in the spam thread today! Hooray!!

2) when I actually got back to sleep, I had the strangest dream. It was after I delivered Monster Truck, and I was donating my uterus to someone else who couldn't have kids. But they had a weird method of getting the baby out. The put this huge eye hook at the top of the cliff in the front yard, and strung all these cables through it - then hooked one end to me, and one end to a ship in the harbour. And were going to yank the thing right out of my body.

I was really not impressed. It ended up nearly dragging me off the cliff before they disconnected it.

lizzybean · September 2014

@thegoodpotato W.T.F. ?!?!?! That is seriously so creepy and all of my lady bits hurt just reading that! So weird!!

lizzybean · September 2014

Ella has just started saying "mommy" and "daddy" instead of mama and dada. I feel like she just became a little girl over night.

Being a Mommy is the best thing ever!!!!!!!!!

:x

jennjilljo · September 2014

@chickyclg‌ Don't bother with that dream. I know that's easier said than done but try. I've had a dozen or so dreams about losing Dos but s/he is just fine. Our fears just like to haunt us in our dreams.

jennjilljo · September 2014

DS is running around in his super hero cape. His super deed was stopping to give me a foot rub.

After I tuck in Addie at night, she says "buh bye mama" in the softest, sweetest little voice...and it melts my heart every. single. time.

@nomnomasaur0426‌ drink more water try and get in over 100oz today. Seriously drink all the fluids. If you are drinking caffeine try and stop it but if you aren't you can try a little to see if it helps. Caffeine is one of those things that can cause or help headaches. Also if you can try to stop the Tylenol I would. Tylenol is known to cause horrible rebound headaches and can cause a vicious cycle.
Thanks! I have been downing water like it's my job! I haven't been having any caffeine though (which is weird for me because pre-pregnancy I was def a coffee addict). Maybe I'll try a small cup. I guess it's good I'm out of Tylenol then!

1/2 cup of coffee does wonders!

--------------------------------- The weirdest part is that my brother and his wife also just received the same gift from her, also as a belated wedding present. They got married 4 years ago.

That is so strange!! LOL. You can give your friends one in a housewarming basket, if any are moving!

kkleigh10 said:

@ChickenOnSunday‌ - good point, I haven't checked the shelf life yet. DH and I are moderate users of OO, we go through a huge bottle probably every 2 months. But there are smaller and gourmet, maybe we'll get through them quickly. ...or use it all on our baby. Cradle cap? Yet another thing I've never heard of.

You could donate them to a church. (I hate saying "black churches" but because we all have different experiences and faiths and all that being politically correct gets difficult.) But some churches use Olive Oil when praying and blessing people.

kefttsc · September 2014

Holy shit. A friend just announced her pregnancy on Facebook at 6 weeks.

jennjilljo · September 2014

@kkleigh10‌ Cradle cap is basically baby dandruff, at least that's how I look at it. Dry, flakey skin on top of the head that usually happens because of always wearing a cap to keep the head warm from what I've read. Not all babies get it though, DS never did so I have limited experience with it.

I just think that is a bit early... but to each his own. I got a text message 2 days ago from a friend who was freaking over her positive pee stick. But I dont think she was freaking, I just think she wanted to tell somebody. It was weird because she said she just took the test, and it was like 8pm on Wednesday. So I texted her yesterday to check in and see if she had calmed down. She said she was getting ready for her dr appt, and to wish her well. lol

Congrats momma, was the only thing left to say.

CatLadyTX · September 2014

S/O cute things toddlers say at bed time, last night I took DS with me to work while I went to a staff meeting. He had a great time playing in the nursery, but was ready for bed when I picked him up. When we got home, I told him to go upstairs and day night night to Daddy. He refused to climb the stairs until he found the cat and screamed at her "night night caaaaaat" then he climbed the stairs and went straight to my room, opened the bathroom door and screamed "night night" to my DH and climbed in my bed to pull the covers over his head. When did he get so big? He was not impressed when I made him leave the big bed and head to his crib.

angelg3134 · September 2014

Sons of Anarchy is back next week... I AM READY.

Along with a whole bunch of my favorite shows. Including Grey's Anatomy!!!

What shows are you guys into that are coming back?

She told me about it last week, but announcing it on FB with a picture of an ultrasound that doesn't even look like a baby is ridiculous! She has had four previously easy pregnancies, but the youngest is 6. Maybe she just doesn't remember that this is way early and scary....

Just last week, I was talking her down because they thought she was measuring behind and I explained that she could be off with her O dates, etc. She heard the hb today, which is great, but still, coming from someone who announced her first pregnancy at 8 weeks and then lost it and had to explain to the world that no baby was coming......

MaryS001 · September 2014

@kkleigh10‌ sounds like somebody had a bunch of olive oil to get rid of... I would regift some at Christmas. But I'm a bad person and regift things all the time.

Totally agree. I know my first we announced at 8wks, and MC at 13wks... that "reverse announcement" was the worst thing I ever had to do, although everyone was still very supportive. Most of you remember me freaking out right around 12/13wks this pregnancy because of my previous experience.

But you just cant tell some people some things, you know. They are going to do what they want, and find a reason to justify it.

I made awesome pancakes for dinner last night, and had enough leftover for breakfast. *winning*

Krusteaz honey wheat pancake mix with French vanilla granola and 2 sliced bananas added before cooking.

erobbins09 · September 2014

Argh my dog peed on the carpet... She's trained and does well but last weekend we went out of town for the day and she had a loooong day inside. She did great but now has peed inside twice this week. She's my dog (I had her years before we started dating) but I work all day today and FI came home to it. He loves on my dog when she is being good (most of the time) but if she does cunty things like pee on the floor I have to hear about how he never wanted a dog.

Not happy

DS says "bye bye mama" at bedtime. It's the cutest thing ever. He also says "mama, kiss/hug" when I leave the house some mornings. My heart melts. Of course other times he syas "no mama" and pushes me away. Hey I take what I can get.

Oem617 · September 2014

My work day ends at 12pm today! Woo-hoo!
