Tuesday SPAM

Re: Tuesday SPAM

  • wirtlehm  I know, this was one of my worst fears too. She's older, and she deserves an amazing retirement. Poor mare, I feel terrible that she got this way. I feel semi responsible, but we had to rehome them so fast my dad helped me rehome her. Not that it's his fault, but I wish I'd looked into them as well.


    kcrosem  Yeah she's at a rescue now, in search of a foster home. She has a family she's looking into, and she requires references/property check and all of that. So I feel confident she's going to find her a good home now, it just breaks my heart it got to this point.

  • @DBJackson25‌ my MW said to "trust your instincts". So, if you feel more worried than is usual for you, then it wouldn't hurt to call.

    I sometimes have almost a whole day where I don't feel little T-bear move but my baby is very lazy. Perhaps because of all the meds I'm on (which cause drowsiness).
  • @maplemomma I hope everything is okay! Keep us updated

    O-M-G! Your DS' potty training story just hilariously shocked me! I am so not prepared to be a mother. Oh f***! I gag at pretty much everything. I'm that woman who thought she wanted to be a medical doctor and literally fainted in all of her uni bio labs that involved bugs or animals (they had to give me special assignments to do at home). Yikes!

    Becoming a mother changes you. It's amazing how dealing with your own child's poo doesn't really bother you. I know it sounds odd, but it's true.

  • KristinMTBell  Thank you, luckily she is still in my state and the lady is very encouraging for me to come see her before she finds her a new home. I'm sure I'll be a sobbing mess so I'm bringing my best friend along to drive

    You know whats underrated? peanut butter and honey sammich
    This sustains the lives of my children because when I make food like, oh, chicken and dumplings, they think they're gonna starve to death. I have one kid that eats almost nothing but peanut butter sandwiches every single day.

    Confession: I sometimes hide from my kids and make a peanut butter and nutella sandwich. Shhhhh....
  • I'm sitting in the lab doing my 2 hour test for The Beetus. I actually got to read and respond to spam today!! Not feeling so great after fasting overnight then having to drink that orange freezie drink (AGAIN). On the bright side, there's a Tim Horton's right across the parking lot, so I'm getting some hot food and hot coffee as a reward for getting the sick kids up and dressed and out of the house by 7:30 without having eaten. And maybe a doughnut. :)
    Mmmmmm Tim Hortons. Love it. Good luck with your 2hr test!

  • Thanks. I'm hoping my test says I can continue to eat doughnuts.

    Although I'm really craving a bowl of soup. We're having a big Pineapple Express here so it's windy and raining like the end of the world. And it's really darn cold in the lab. I wish they'd turn the heat up!

    Their candy cane donut may or may not be what I ate for breakfast all weekend. Just sayin'
  • I must look huge and uncomfortable all of a sudden, I've had like 6 people that I see regularly ask me "how are you feeling??" with a genuine concern in their voice. Fine? I feel fine...

  • @Alygohome‌ I am so jealous of your PB And honey sandwich! I'm a weirdo who was anaphylactic to peanuts as a kid but oddly the allergy disappeared for about 6 years only to reappear (in a milder non-anaphylactic allergy version). I wish it hasn't disappeared so I wouldn't know what I was missing!

    I occasionally (Twice or three times a year) eat PB (with an epi pen handy) knowing I'm going to end up puking for over a day because I love it so much and there's nothing like it! But, since being pregnant I haven't felt like taking the risk (more like, I can't risk hurting my baby).

    My fave was always PB and molasses! Mmmmm homemade bread, PB, and molasses. Mmmmm!
  • Second blood draw done... One more to go.

    I swear to god the worst part of this test is having to undergo a full morning with no caffeine. I could fall asleep right here in this awful plastic seat. I have usually had three or more cups of coffee by now...

    You could have a cup of black coffee before going. I hate black coffee but Theres nothing in it when its black thats going to do something to your sugar.

    I was told no food or water, so that included no coffee
  • @maplemomma - T&P for you and your DH
  • So... Weird thing. I'm having a strange morning.

    I'm back at my govt job until baby comes. My govt office is on the third floor of a building that also contains the Ministry of Social Development (aka welfare and child services).

    After I got out of testing for The Beetus, I went and grabbed a breakfast sandwich and a large coffee at Timmie's before heading into the office. I park, and get out of my car.

    Some guy in a crappy early 90's hatchback, who is in his late 50's comes up to me as I'm walking into the building and goes "hey do you smoke?"

    I go, "No, I don't, sorry."

    He says, "Want to..... ..... Wait... You don't smoke?"

    C'mon guy. I'm super pregnant. I know I look like shit and am carrying a monster sized coffee, but have some common sense! *eyeroll*

  • Ok I'm officially concerned. Freaked out is almost a close description. In the past hour I've gotten TWO phone calls from 1-800 numbers claiming to be "fraud prevention services" from my bank. I didn't give these people any information nor talk to them. Instead I called my bank and asked them to check my account. I also logged into my online banking service to check recent transactions and everything looks legit. Soooooooo scary...who are these people who are calling me???
  • I've had a cold for the last couple days, and it keeps getting worse. Bleh. Wish I could snap my fingers and make it disappear!!

    Nothing else spammy for me today. It's so exciting/scary to see another baby come from our board, though! I'm so glad little Daisy is doing well.

  • DH is on a biz trip, I'm home alone with my bump. I don't like returning to a house all by myself. Now I know how DH felt when I was traveling so much in my pre-pregnancy days, and for 2-3 weeks at a time. =((

    @bhjones1980 DD's first ear infection was this past August and it was a double ear infection, so bad. Then the antibiotics didn't work and we ended up in the ER, then the new antibiotics caused an allergic reaction and we had 10 days of benadryl and stress. I felt like the worst mom ever.  So yesterday I thought she had an ear infection and took her in thinking that I would catch it super early and yay me! Nope, she had croup, and has had it, and somehow I missed that too >< Hope your little feels better soon but try not to feel bad. DD had no symptoms the first time and doctors were even surprised when I said no to all the questions.

    @maplemomma hope you dh is okay!

    We are doing elf on the shelf but he hasn't moved since I got him, I'm lazy.  I probably won't do the "he's going to tell Santa on you" trip but I do like making him do inappropriate things, like pooping kisses onto the peanut butter blossoms I made the other night.

    Hi ladies! I try to participate in spam but my day always get away from me. I usually post on threads at night.  My spam is actually a question.  I have my GTT on Monday but I don't have questions about that, I read all the other threads LOL. 

    *********Trigger warning for ED ladies (sorry I did not add this in before, I was not thinking clearly)*******

    My last appointment I had gained 8 pounds somehow and got lectured.  (I actually lost 30 in the beginning due to hyperemisis gravidarum, so I'm still technically in the red with weight gain)  I tried to do better this time and exercise more but my brother came to town and we pretty much have been out to eat every night for the last 4 days.  Should I disclose that to my doctor if the weight is crazy again? I don't want to seem like I'm not listening to him but I'm also not going to start a "diet." I do need to make better choices though.

  • Trigger warning for our ED ladies.


    @Dani_Love‌
    Why would a weight gain of 8lbs get you a lecture?
    I've gained about 22lbs(without any weight loss) and my MW said it is healthy, normal and right on track. And I was overweight prior to getting pregnant.
  • So I got invited to annoying aid's baby shower next week at work.

    I feel required to go. What should I buy her? I don't want to get her a gift card because chances are she'll spend it on herself and her registry has only like 5 things on it total.

    Ideas?

  • @cogdis I'm not sure, he just started in on me saying "you gained 8 pounds since your last appointment and you need to work on that, it's too much too fast etc, I know we just had Halloween and now it's Thanksgiving then Christmas but you can't just do whatever you want, try to get more exercise by taking walks." So now I'm paranoid that my gain is too much for him.

    Thank you for the trigger warning! I will add one to my original post, I didn't even think of that as a trigger. So sorry ladies!

  • Try not to take it too much to heart @Dani_Love‌. Just try to make better choices where you can. As long as you don't have GD, it doesn't sound like you're being recklessly irresponsible with weight gain.
