Monday Spam Anyone?

PeaceofKia · October 2014

I didn't know if we wanted to turn the @mommalawyer thread into today's spam, I think that thread deserves it's own responses...thoughts?

HailsMom · October 2014

Wasn't that one from yesterday?

Morning Ladies - It's Monday... That puts us one day closer to Friday at least, right?

lizzybean · October 2014

Morning gals!! Headed out to join my Mothers of Preschoolers friends! Two hours of the kids in daycare while we chat and have brunch. Heaven!!

PeaceofKia · October 2014

I took my Halloween fail siggy down...the 3 boobs were getting hard to scroll past while at work...

I'm officially wearing a wrist brace during the day now because my wrist pain is so bad...should I see a doctor?

selly08 · October 2014

Absolutely @PeaceofKia‌.. We can't turn that one into a spam thread. She deserves her own responses. Thanks for making this one!

So I think my MS is returning back to me. I just don't feel like getting out of the house. I visited my parents this weekend. It was fun but I had no motivation to actively participate in anything at all. No food is good! And nausea.. Oh God!! This is not what I was expecting. I thought I was done! Seems liKe 3 months were not enough

schnitz9 · October 2014

Yeah i though that one from yesterday too....nothing new here just super stressed and busy. Ugh!!!!

kefttsc · October 2014

Good morning, ladies!

@PeaceofKia I do think you should mention it to your doctor if you are to the point of a brace now. Can't hurt!

Have fun today @lizzybean!

Tonight is the monthly MoM for my city and I joined last week. The speaker is mostly focused on children ages 2-5, so I don't think I'm going to go. We've had plans every night for over a week, so I think I'm going to do NOTHING tonight.

I bought a super cute tunic top to wear with leggings and boots for my shower on Saturday, but turns out it will be 34 degrees! I think I'm switching to skinny jeans, boots, and a sweater tunic. Since you all care LOL!

schnitz9 · October 2014

@selly08 if it helps mine never went away. I went for my 24 week appt on thur and when the dr asked if i was still getting sick I told him maybe 2-3 times a day now. His response. "thats great..better than 7-8 like before." Anyone else not hungry either? I can not seem to want to eat. He said thats normal but I keep reading all of you talk about food and being hungry and I just can't seem to make myself eat.....

AshleySparkle720 · October 2014

I feel like I was hit by a train this morning. I'm so sore and tired! After all the early mornings and late nights it would take days to catch up on all the sleep. On the plus side I have shopping and lunch planned. One of the wives I know around here felt bad that DH missed my birthday so she asked to take me out. So that's nice

WanderingA · October 2014

Good morning!

Rough night last night for us. Adeline was up at 2:00 crying and then fussed on and off from 6:30 until 8:00 when she woke up. I also am suddenly sick AGAIN with a really bad sore throat and woke myself up coughing several times. Also, Milo has turned head down (wooohooo) so his head is pressing on my bladder more, I was up a separate three times to pee.

I'm being a bad momma and letting her watch TV for a bit this morning while I sit and zone!

lizjennings81 · October 2014

I'm working from home this morning until I have to drive to another site for a meeting at 10am. I got to sleep in, which was much needed after all the work we did yesterday around the apartment.

It's strange, though, with all the books missing. The living room has an echo right now. We were saying it feels like we're about to move out (instead of having someone new move in come February).

lizjennings81 · October 2014

@KristinMTBell, thanks! We always joke that our landlord (who's a stickler for rules but generally nice) will say, "Well, let's make it official and add the baby to your lease … Can you give me her credit report?"

Where is the pain? I had "de quervain's tendinosis" when I was pregnant with DS which got really bad once he was born, with that the pain is very localized to the joint in your wrist right below you thumb, the tendon gets inflamed, and really the only option is to completely immobilize with a brace (but you need one that stabilizes your thumb) or get cortisone shots (which I had to end up doing).

krysmill · October 2014

@WanderingA hope you feel better and what a rough night.

@lizjennings81‌ haha Tenant that's great.

Well I have a 23 week appt today. Hoping to see baby again. Then much needed shopping after with my little sister. Lush here I come!

mahalo3 · October 2014

This is a somewhat TMI story about something that happened this weekend and maybe it's Spam worthy. My husband's friend and his wife came over Friday to help move furniture up and down the stairs since I can't lift a dresser these days. They have a 2 year old. The husband was upstairs with her and they were trying to play with our cat, who was under the bed in the guest room. The husband comes down stairs, laughing, asking about a variety pack of sex toys that his 2 year old found under the bed. I was like "What?! What are you talking about???" It was just an empty box, but it had all of the pictures of the toys on the outside. Some of these things I don't even know what they are for. Well, my sister lived in that room for about 6 months, moved out almost a year ago, and I guess forgot to throw away the box when she moved out (along a HUGE box of clothes that I want out, but that's a different story). I work with the husband. He is not at all letting me live this down, and it's not even my box of toys!!! hahahaha! It was so funny, embarrassing, but funny. I am still debating on telling her to come to get it or just throwing it away.

kismetjess · October 2014

I'm here...barely. On the positive side of things: DD woke up in a glorious mood this morning, didn't fight me at getting dressed one bit, and gave me hugs and kisses at drop off. On the negative side: I have a call into my OB to follow up on the spotting I had over the weekend. I was hoping I could hold off on seeing her until my appointment tomorrow, but I woke up to a crap ton of mucous (like way more than I usually have) and more cramping, and super nauseous. LO woke me up with a dance party this morning, so hopefully that is just irritating my cervix. I don't think I want to wait until tomorrow to find out though.

chickyclg · October 2014

I haven't been around a lot and probably won't be this week either. My husbands grandmother passed away and we have just been surrounding ourselves with family, and I have been trying to support DH as much as possible right now.

lizjennings81 · October 2014

@chickyclg, I'm so sorry to hear that. My condolences to you, your husband, and family during this time.

chickyclg · October 2014

@kefttsc‌ you should check it out, at my MoMs meeting I learned some interesting things. Our speaker was a pediatrician mom of 2 sets of twins and she talked about once they are school age keeping them in the same classroom, and about BG twins why the boys tend to take longer to hit certain milestones.

kefttsc · October 2014

I did it. I scheduled my 3D ultrasound (being performed by a good friend who offered!) and I invited some family. I am so against having anyone there for any of the appointments, so they are all shocked and thrilled to be invited. I'm swallowing my disgust.

pitdigger · October 2014

Hi ladies! I'm back after a two-day food coma brought to you by Diwali buffets.

I'm finally making the effort to clear up the upstairs storage/utility closet since the dumpsters are still everywhere and there's not much for me to do at the museum. I have moved 3 window a/c units to the outside to be hauled away and now just have to sweep and put it all back together. I'm pretty much spent and might have overdone it, but I don't know when DH is getting home tonight (new ferry schedule came into effect today and Marine and Ports has yet to publish it), so I wanted to get it done.

kefttsc · October 2014

Um.....why is my avatar my weekly picture????? WTF. Bring back my dogs.

elephantsonpatrol · October 2014

@kismetjess T+P to you and update us when you can

crabigator · October 2014

@kismetjess Fingers crossed that it's just something minor and negligible!

@chickyclg My condolences to you and your family.

My TMI spam: my kid peed and pooped in the toilet this weekend! Multiple times!

At a few months past three, she's waaaaay old for toilet training, at least compared to what seems like every kid I know. We've been pretty laid back about it, but partly that's because we just thought she would just give us signs of being ready before now. Only lately have we been a bit more stressed, what with a new diaper-user coming in a few months. But the benefit, I guess, of having waited this long is that we're able to have these long conversations with her about it, and why she should use the toilet, etc.

So this weekend, after happily hanging out on the toilet three times on Saturday with no "result," Sunday she pooped on the toilet at home, peed on the toilet while we were out at a restaurant (I'm definitely most impressed with that one. My husband took her and said he got her on the toilet, a five count, and then it was Pee City!), and then peed again on the toilet at home!

I'm sure it's a long road ahead of us, but I am BEYOND ELATED to at least be on the start of it!! Last night, I was telling her how we're so excited that she's doing this, and she asked me, "how excited are you?" When I reached my arms way out and said, "This excited!" she jumped up and down clapping. So maybe we can ride this enthusiasm the whole way!

selly08 · October 2014

So the cutest thing happend to me right now! My 2 yo nephew comes over to me touches my belly and says, "baby do you wanna eat something?"
Now that my belly is popping out, it's becoming more realistic for him too! :x

triplej9 · October 2014

chickyclg T&P's to you both.

kismetjess · October 2014

boo, my ob is out today and the on call doc told me to go to l&d for monitoring. I'm in my lovely gown waiting for the nurse now to come hook me up and do a ffn test. I'm almost positive I'm not having contractions so I'm not overly concerned.

I told DH to stay at work unless something changes. So I'm pretty freaking bored.

smg2302 · October 2014

@kismetjess FX everything is ok

@chickyclg I'm so sorry for your loss

I'm back after being mostly MIA for the weekend. My mom was in town and it was awesome! We got so many projects done. DD pretty much refused to sleep all weekend because she was so excited the nana was here. I hope she starts sleeping soon, I am one tired mama.

PS happy belated birthday to @ashleysparkles720 !! I hope it was awesome. I'm glad your friend tried to make is special for you.

maltwin1 · October 2014

Yesterday we saw a U-haul truck in our neighbors' driveway. There had also been painters painting the outside of the house, so we wondered if maybe they were moving. We know them pretty well but hadn't seen them in a while, so I sent her a text and asked her if the u-haul truck meant they were moving.

She called me immediately saying that she and her BF (of 4 years) had been fighting and she was currently out of town, but she had no idea they were even breaking up, much less that he was moving out! I felt horrible! It seems his plan was for him to be gone by the time she got back home today so he could just end it without having to actually end it.

I feel terrible for her, but now I'm kinda stuck in the middle. She keeps texting me asking what he's doing and if he's home and what furniture he's loading in. But I can't see their house very well from our house and I really don't want to go up there and poke my nose in things. She even texted me last night at around 9:00 asking if I would walk up there and if he wasn't home just go in and look around. I told her I'm really not comfortable doing that and she got really put out with me. Ugggg! Me and my big mouth!

erobbins09 · October 2014

Good morning ladies..

It seems many of us are off to a rough start. Thoughts, fx and condolences for our ever-stressed moms to be.

I have SO much to do this week school/work-wise and I have ZERO motivation. I wish I could just pick one over the other and just drop the responsibilities. Everyone keeps asking if I am taking classes next semester... I used to laugh and say something about being afraid of going into labor during class... Now I just stare at them. I wish I could I really do but I cannot afford to miss baby time for something other than a paying obligation the few months after Feb. I don't even really have official maternity leave since I am otherwise self employed for my design work.

I am also afraid I won't be meeting my end of the month Etsy launch

house hunting turned to buying took priority. I just want it going before the baby gets here so moving and nursery decorating will probably be a bit rushed to give me some time to get through finals and make some damn pillows. I love how I always put more on my plate when it is already full..

PeaceofKia · October 2014

@KristinMTBell I love Wegman's!! I go every time I visit my grandparents in Baltimore County...their crab soup is to die for!

You should see a chiropractor. My chiro has been doing wonders for my Carpal Tunnel. I know you can also get steroid shots while pregnant, I just never found them to be an amazing relief. Chiropracter has been my saving grace this pregnancy. It's one of the worst pains, especially when it radiates up your arm

Ducktale · October 2014

It is literally 80 degrees here at work. This lady is going to start stripping down real soon.

mishka29 · October 2014

Is it yucky to bump while going to the bathroom? I hope not since I'm stuck on the toilet at work with diarrhea. Uncool.

scahlin · October 2014

It's been a weekend. DHs back is bad and he usually just guts it out but this weekend was bad. He actually took the hydrocodone (sp?). He has had the same bottle for a year. Plus in my quest to make life easier for him I threw mine out so it was a long weekend on the couch.

AF9211 · October 2014

Thinking of you @kismetjess...keep us posted!

The doc's broke SIL's water this morning, so I should be seeing my new niece or nephew some time this evening or tomorrow!

CatLadyTX · October 2014

@kismetjess‌ keep us updated!

@chickyclg‌ my condolences to your husband and his family.

DS has an upper respiratory infection and an ear infection. Awesome.

bumpuser10404476 · October 2014

I'm super stressed about work. My boss is visiting tomorrow from corporate headquarters. I just heard that they closed the tea search station nearest to mine this morning and laid off all of the employees. I'm worried about what my fate will be tomorrow.

I drive a company car too - this could be rough :-??

StephanieLBerg · October 2014

My GD and hypertension tests are in 2 hours and I'm still super exhausted! I haven't been sleeping well for anything these past several days. At least I get to come home and go back to sleep if I want to, which I REALLY do want to, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to. *sigh* this week is already starting out to be a bust for me..... :-<
