    So, my dog seems to be getting lonely/depressed. I am highly considering getting another dog from a shelter here, but was curious if anyone has had that experience when so close to having a new baby? I'm not sure on the timing, and what would be best. I don't want my dog to get even more sad when we have less time, so seems to be a better idea to look into dog adoption prior to baby. Thoughts?
  • Had a horrible night waiting for the emergency doctor to return my call about brown discharge. I have an appointment with the doctor around 3 because they are worried about pre-term labor or an infection worsening.

    The good part is the baby is still letting me know she's there.. FX everything comes out OK at the appointment. Staying positive!

    Hope everyone's appointments go well, and that you all have a great day!

  • I'm just snuggling with my little kitten. I'm starving but too comfy to get up which is my big dilemma of the day. I can't wait for Halloween candy!! Aaand I think I May have figured out how to add pictures from my mobile! Well see if it works!

    Nope. Gosh darn it I just got excited for nothing. If anyone knows how to add a pic from mobile I'll love you forever...
  • Hi guys. Sorry for the not so great starts to the day. Add me to the list. No sleep and coughed all night. Needless to say I called in sick from work. I feel terrible (in a sick way and for calling in and leaving them shorthanded). But honestly working yesterday just made my cough worse! Home snuggling with my dogs and trying to get better. Movies and Netflix today!
    GL to all the appts today.
  • @DragonflyDreaming‌ Omg yes to the goddamn Halloween candy. I've been packing healthy lunches at work and 20 minutes later I destroy 8 fun-size Snickers. Wtf.

    So I thought I signed up for short-term disability at work buuuuuuuuuuut apparently I didn't so I'll be getting half the maternity leave I expected. I really thought I signed up for it when I was hired, but I screwed the pooch and now my pregnancy is a pre-existing condition & wouldn't apply if I signed up in open enrollment. Womp womp. I'll just remind myself I'm lucky I have some PTO.
  • @darbie914 when I found out last time I was having a boy, I had the same visions of cute little hats like that. Well my son will NOT wear any hat. He rips everything off and did so starting at a SUPER young age. I am hoping that someday he will allow me to put a hat on him. Just a warning in case your LO is feisty like mine and rebels against hat wearing :)

  • @DragonflyDreaming‌ I agree with PPs, definitely get another dog now rather than later. There is going to be adjustment time for everyone so the sooner you get started the better! You want the new dog comfortable and in a routine with your existing dog beforehand, otherwise you're risking dealing with all kinds of craziness when you're most likely going to be extremely tired.
    I haven't had experience with 2 dogs and a new baby but I have extensively babysat a 1yo in my house with 2 dogs and 2 (insane) cats. It was definitely manageable since the dogs seem to understand not to bother babies. I've spent time training them this way though and I can't imagine trying to find time to train a new dog on top of caring for a newborn.

  • Good morning ladies!

    Add me to the list of appointments today. Just a regular check-up though. At least I'll get to hear that glorious heartbeat again!

    I, too, want to buy ALL THE BABY THINGS. I agree @katydid2014 - trying to predict what size for what season is so hard! Especially when you don't know how big they will be or how fast they will grow! I have only bought 2 footed onesies so far and we got them in newborn size.

    I got 2 boxes of baby clothes from a co-worker (awesome sauce) and the biggest pile is in the 6-12 month size category, which means I won't have to buy much of anything in that age range!
  • I projectile vomited on my front porch this morning.

    Every morning I always drink a huge cup of coffee (half coffee, half milk) and I drink it as fast as I can because I hate the flavor of coffee.  Well, I think my uterus is pushing my organs around so my stomach capacity probably isn't what it used to be but it hit me especially hard this morning.

    So I stepped on the stoop and boom, I turn into a coffee spewing volcano.  And lucky me, I have an audience!  This stupid woman in her SUV slowed down to watch the show.  THANKS.  I waved her on and refused to puke again until she was out of site.  I barfed 4 or 5 more times getting every last drop of coffee out of my stomach and then got in my car and went to work.

    The day can only get better from there, right?

    Oh no. :(. I hope you feel better!

    Okay here is a random, I just ordered this set of Christmas PJs for my son:

    image
    They came up when I searched for baby boy PJs, then after I placed my order I noticed it said Pajamas-Baby Girl on the order. Sooooo, are these neutral or did I just get girl pjs for my boy?

    P.S. For those itching to buy baby clothes- Carters has nice doorbuster shirts and PJs on sale and free shipping today only. I am sorry/You are welcome. 

    ETA I just changed my wording so I do not inadvertently start a sex/gender slamming thread

  • Yesterday DD would not take a nap, she just fussed in her crib. I hope today she's a little more willing, I have so much stuff to get done for my classes and I don't want to be up until midnight doing it.

    I think all those people who say you get energy in the second trimester were FTMs. I have pretty much no energy most of the time and a part of me is freaking out a little inside because I'm afraid that I'll become a zombie when this LO comes.

    @wishiwaspreggo - Sorry about the projectile vomit.  It happens to the best of us.  Maybe you could you try to get your caffeine from another source that you actually like?  Like hot chocolate or soda?
    C got me addicted to her wicked version of coffee.  She brews it so strong you can see the oil floating on top.  I drink it for the antioxidants, and it seems to be the only thing that jolts me to life in the morning.  Most of the time it's okay, but I think I should just start drinking it slowly now :)
  • @JennyP0222‌ I think they are neutral and very cute!

    Thanks - for some reason I got nervous that he would see photos of himself in those PJs when he is older and ask why I dressed him in little girl PJs? Irrational I know. 

    How was Asheville?

    Asheville was fun but a very short trip-I ended up with a uti and I wasn't feeling great on Sunday so we left earlier than planned.

    We spent most of Saturday at the Biltmore and went for a drive on the blue ridge parkway. I'm anxious to see more of Asheville itself.

  • I just remembered we havent told DHs grandma im pregnant yet! How do I even explain that to her. *facepalm*

    aaand every seedless grape Im eating, has a seed. They taste like hell if you havent had the pleasure of biting down into a grape seed. I feel jipped.
  • @Haps92907‌ I LOVE That costume! Are you going as an oreo?

    This is a great idea :-)

    @JennyP0222‌ I think those pjs look good for boy or girl. Cute!

    My husband and I are going to Biltmore in 3 weeks!  We are staying on the property and I'm so freaking excited.  We last went in 2010 maybe.  I want to do some of the behind-the-scenes tours and we are doing the Candlelight Tour of the house.  I also want to spend a day driving the Blue Ridge if the weather is nice.  We didn't do that the last time we went up.
    Sorry @suzyq0525 that your trip got cut short!  

    We drove the Blue Ridge while in Asheville a couple weeks ago and it was awesome. Except there was a minor car accident like 2 minutes ahead of us that trapped us for about 2 hours in one spot. That part was less awesome!

  • Once again, I have tried over and over to change my ticker. I've tried bump codes, lilypie codes, nothing works. the old one still shows up. so I deleted the code altogether, but it's still showing up for me when I post on the computer. 

    is it still showing up for you guys when I post? does anyone know what the problem is?

  • If we make an appointment thread, won't it pretty much be as long as the random thread? I don't see the point in separating them, I guess.

    GL to everyone who has their A/S today.

    I'm getting to the point where I have to rock myself off of the couch.  Didn't think that would happen for several more weeks.  Oof.
    Love-tit because I know exactly how you feel. I have to either grab my legs and pull myself up out of bed, or roll off the side to get up in the mornings. And forget about getting up off the floor.
  • @Haps92907 That is an adorable costume, and she is even more adorable!

    @dragonflydreaming I want a second dog too, but we decided we can't take the time off that would be necessary to make sure they got along before the baby came.  Is it possible your dog seems sad because of your pregnancy?  My dog is happy in general, but sometimes when it is juts the 2 of us he just looks at me and whines.  He doesn't have to go out, doesn't want to be pet, I think he is just weirded out by my pregnancy

    @wishiwaspreggo if I drink coffee too quick I get heartburn that makes me have to burp BAD which sometimes feels like I am going to puke.  I am sorry you had an audience this morning.

  • @goofygoff‌ LOL. I keep finding myself making grunting sounds getting up off the couch or turning over in bed. I definitely do not remember this happening so soon last time. I'm not that big yet. Not sure why it's taking so much effort!
  • By 9:30am this morning I had already eaten 2 steak and cheese rollers from 7eleven, a cliff bar and a donut at work. Someone help me!!!
    miscarriage 4/16/14 . new baby due 3/14/15!!!
