I'm on my way home today. I'm going with no news is no news on the car, but we've got partial roof damage. We're able to stay, so I'll just start doing laundry once I get in.
I'm headed to the gym tomorrow for a good workout.
Good morning ladies! I'm just headed to work. We are short staffed this week and I've got a big awards banquet that I'm coordinating on Friday. I'm a little nervous, but I'm sure it will be fine.
GTKY: Any dog licking themselves is repulsive to me. Especially if it is their private regions, but even just the sound of a dog licking its paws is disgusting to me.
I'm up early but afraid to get out of bed. The hives have struck again. My right hand was itching all night and I know my eye is swollen...now it's just a question of how bad I look.
I have my GD test today. Honestly I'm looking forward to a quiet hour of reading my book.
Thing that grosses me out...really gross stuff like blood and big open wounds with bones.
Oopsies, @maplemama ! Looks like you beat me to the Tuesday Spam thread by a few minutes.
Good morning ladies. I'm still feeling pretty down this morning about flutterfly and worried about elephants. Sad times for our mamas =( It has my PGaL brain acting up as well and every amount of discharge I have is freaking me out. I hope the trolls and clueless newbs keep their nonsense to a minimum today. Hugs to all F15ers.
My spam (because we need a distraction!): Finally going to see Gone Girl tonight. Someone give me the details on how to see all the "goodies". Y'all know what I mean.
Can't wait to meet our darling daughter, Abigail Elizabeth
Up from a dream and I haven't really had vivid/crazy dreams since being pregnant until now. It was about my BF and she isn't around to talk to. (won't be back until Feb 2016 ) I miss her.
I was going to post my FB announcement I finally did yesterday, but after all the sad news I decided to wait. Hopefully today is better for F15.
Last name is in the pic, so I might self destruct this in a bit, but I wanted you guys to see.
Crazy intense pregnancy dreams make me feel so unrested working at 6 am just keeps getting more and more miserable as its getting colder! 9 weeks until leave starts!

No spoilers!!! I still haven't made it to the movies. lol
I started to have some mild cramps last night and freaked out a little. They went away though, but I know what you mean.

I had a rough night of sleep as well. I was up thinking about our f15 ladies who are having a rough time and hoping those that are idiots stay in the shadows today because if one of them pops up they MAY get some viper like responses from me. Hopefully today is a better day. In other news I have felt the baby move again (he didn't move for almost 36hrs and already has a pattern so docs were concerned). Keep strong ladies!
GTKY: Poop and there will be a lot of it in my future. Cat boxes don't bother me, but taking the dog for a walk and have to clean up his hot mess grosses me out. He poops every time I walk him even if he poops before we go.

Good morning ladies! We need to get some pep in our step and have great Tuesdays! There is just so much to worry about and ultimately it is out of our control so I am throwing my hands up and living in the moment... And at this moment Elliott is one wiilllddd and craazy guy.
I believe the offer is going in on the house today... I just keep flip flopping between the two homes anyone want to pick for me? Could I make a poll and let you ladies pick our home?

Morning! Sitting in traffic. No pep from me...so tired from not being able to sleep @cls78 cute!!
My cats licking at night. Drives me bonkers and I can't stand it!

I am literally counting the hours until our vacation starts. I have only taken a day or two off from work this whole year. Most of those were baby appointments.
I am soooo ready for a week off and totally excited to head to disney with the hubby and like 4 friends and their families. We figured going by ourselves would kind of suck. He would feel guilty for riding stuff that I can't etc. But this way there is always at least a kid or adult who doesn't go on the big stuff too to keep me company.
I am also looking forward to taking some cute "bump" pic with characters and all. We plan on doing our "revel" picture on the first day. We announced the pregnancy but I'm buying some baby minnie ears when we get there to do a picture in front of the castle and writing "it's a girl".
@cls78 that announcement is just beautiful. Love it.
Audrey has been less active lately and it is starting to get to me. Especially after the few days this board has had. I'm going to go chug some iced tea and hopefully she will give me a few big thumps for peace of mind.
We had a fabulous day at the beach yesterday and wanted to share a pic with you all. BFF is going home on Thursday and I am dreading saying goodbye so soon.
This weekend I bought new shampoo. DH claims I spent 40minutes on the shampoo aisle at target agonizing over this decision. He's probably right. I ended up getting Garnier Damage Repair and I definitely made the right decision. I had been using V05/Suave/Cheap shit on sale for the longest time.
GTKY: I have 2. Feet. I hate them so much (except on babies). Especially here in Florida where everyone wears flip flops. Trim your toenails and remove your calluses before subjecting me to this. Also frogs. They're gross and make me cry.
I can't believe we're two pages in already but that means I can actually read everything! My heart is breaking for F15 and I'm hoping for a better day today.
Addie is still asleep at 8:22 and I'm still laying in bed. She has a doctors appointment at 9:30 so I'm going to have to get her up soon but I'm sooooo comfortable! I had a sad moment last night thinking about the fact that my sleeping through the night time is coming to an end!
GTKY: I'm with @MaryS001 - mouth sounds are the worst thing in the world. Hearing someone chew with their mouth open is worse than nails on a chalkboard.
F15 Siggy Challenge: What You're Looking Forward to Most After Baby Arrives: BELLY SLEEPING!
Last night Dh made a run to walmart to buy an alarm clock and he brought me back a candy bar. well after eating the candy bar LO started kicking like crazy. So DH finally got to feel him kicking! Finally afterwards he looked like such a goober with the grin he had on his face. All he kept saying was "yeah thats my boy!"
GTKY: I have an eyeball phobia. I can't stand people touching their eyesballs or seeing damage get done to eyes in movies. I hate people who wear contacts that insist on poking their eyes in front of me or rearranging their contacts in front of me.
This is why I wear glasses. I have never tried contacts and probably never will and laser eye surgery scares me to.
It took me forever to be able to learn to do eyeliner and mascara because when I was younger anytime something came near my eyes I instantly flinched and closed my eyes.

@toadandbug12 WTF?! Every day I lose more and more faith in humanity. WHY would anyone ever think that is ok to say to you?? I hope you said "yeah, yours too" back.
@DBJackson25 I'm so glad that he finally started up again. That has to be reassuring and is a good lesson that they can still take days off at this point.
I went to bed feeling terrible not only because of what happened but because Rosalyn was kicking away for over an amass I had that reassurance that others didn't. I felt guilty getting that while I knew about the loss and scares yesterday. I was so exhausted that I slept through the night but I had pregnancy dreams so I woke up so angry. DH decided that to cheer me up we'll go Halloween and comic book shopping.
Also, my mom let me know that the cancer has not spread to my aunt's bones so her chances of survival went up. One day I'll explore my inability to truly fear or worry about cancer with you guys. I feel really bad because in not worried at all right now for her physical health, just get mental health.
GTKY: I have 2. I'm with people who hate the sound of animals cleaning themselves. I also can't stand a metal fork touching teeth. I do the baby feeding mouth watching others eat with metal forks and avoid metal wear any time I can.
I will never understand why people think it's ok to comment on the status of a pregnant woman's body - or a non-pregnant one for that matter!
The other day someone said to me "oh you don't look pregnant from behind.. but when you turn around, well, that's a different story. Are your hips wider?"
WHY is that ok to ask???? WTF is wrong with people.
Posting & running here as well since I've been putting off getting showered & dressed for my 9:30 24/25 week OB appointment. I'm too lazy to get off the couch cuddling with DD...it was 60 degrees in here when we woke up this morning. Warm snuggles are the best.
Good morning, ladies. I confess I'm counting down the hours to my OB appointment tomorrow. I've been having what I'm pretty sure is RLP, but along with some pressure (that went away when Ms. Willa moved) and her lazy attitude toward kicking, I'll be at the office bright and early. Also sending lots of thoughts and hugs and vibes to everyone on F15.
GTKY: I can't stand deboning a rotisserie chicken, completely grosses me out to handle. So slimy! Weird, eh?
Awaiting our bundle of cute chaos.

Only idiots say negative comments to a pregnant lady about her pregnant body. The only things coming out of peoples mouths is how great we look and if they can bring us something.
I'm going to make a new rule you can only touch the bump if you bring the bump food. If not you Shit out of luck.

Is it Friday yet?!?!
Today is my 24 week appt- looking forward to hearing his heartbeat.
GTKY: mouth noises. Hearing someone chew their gum, especially. Also, I don't like anyone touching my ears or things in my ears- earbuds are a no go.
NO MORE HEARTBURN!
GTKY: I have 2. Feet. I hate them so much (except on babies). Especially here in Florida where everyone wears flip flops. Trim your toenails and remove your calluses before subjecting me to this. Also frogs. They're gross and make me cry.
@lizzybean your LO is so cute. She's got a beautiful smile. I am glad you guys had a good holiday.
I met my OB yesterday, just for a routine check up. Heard the baby's heartbeats. Everything looked okay to him.
