Re: Longest Thread EVER! (aka Random Thoughts Thread )

  • Thanks y'all. I was thinking about getting this one: https://www.amazon.com/Dream-On-Me-Playard-Mattress/dp/B004JU0H6O/ref=pd_cp_ba_0 just because it's a few dollars cheaper and says it's .5" bigger. I have an Ingenuity PNP, and it says the dimensions are 39" x 27". I'm worried I should just fork out the few extra dollars though so that I get the best kind. I really shouldn't be as conflicted as I am about this. haha.

  • I'm having supply issues and my bf is being such an insensitive jerk about it. He's making me feel like a bad mom and doesn't seem to understand how this shit works. He's acting like I'm the worst person in the world for expecting him to try formula when they run out of milk
  • Thank you everyone! The anxiety issue runs in my family, now in life I just can't manage with it as well as I used to, hopefully this helps get me back to my happy medium.


    I had some left over eye drops from her last flare up that have helped the inflammation, we will be ordering sunglasses after her appointment on Friday! Hers her this afternoon getting her last bathroom break before the high point of the day

    What happened to her eyes? ( or pg number, I missed it)

    Hope she's comfortable.
    She has pannus, about twice a year she has flare ups, this time it was a little worse, it looks like she will probably have to have two check ups a year for her eyes, and probably a daily medication for them.
    Oh bummer! That's common in German Shepards so something I have to watch out for...

    Yeah she's a corgi mix so who knows what she's mixed with but she's got it. It's annoying but not awful, I'm hoping for long term medicine instead of this steroid drops when there's a flare up.

    Although Google pictures online scare the bejesus out of me
  • Zoloft has knocked me flat on my ass. I've never felt this sleepy, I just feel like I have sand in my eyes.

    Oh boo :( Have you ever taken it before? Call your doc and see if you can try something different. Or cut the zoloft dose in half until your body adjusts.

    Edit: grammar
    No I've never taken it before, I think today I'm going to try to take it at night. I'm only taking 25 mg, though my doctor did tell me that I could be drowsy for awhile.
  • Spent the morning at urgent care... poor little dude has had a fever for two days.  They gave him a shot and some other medicine and now he's finally napping.  Poor little guy.

  • What's big 10? I had my brother translate the last installment of Dani's vacay. He is very confused.

    It's a Québec thing, very large, very strong beer. College drinking at its best.

  • Sorry @him184  I hope he feels better soon!

    J woke up in the middle of the night cookin' at 102... No clue why.  Even after Tylenol he's still 101.5 so I had to stay home with him today.  Lots of nursing, naps, and fussiness.

    And apparently the floor is made of hot lava.
  • @CalinAZ‌ i‌ love it!

    @MrsStanton87‌ we were told we may get 70-90mph gusts in wind prone areas, which is most of the city! Also, they could be up to 140mph in the sierras. That's so crazy!

    The floor is lava here, too!

  • My kid can't put himself to sleep all that well and he won't let me rock him to sleep. I don't know what to do. He is dog tired, though.
  • I read at this age babies are trying to go from 3 naps to 2. Don't know if that applies to your babies, but maybe something to consider? :-/

    Can I AW for a sec? Finally finished decorating Evan's 2nd helmet with "Where the Wild Things Are" :)

    Super excited about how it turned out! It'll make the next 3-4 months go by that much happier.

    That's my favorite book to read to Dylan. He loves looking at the pics of the wild rumpus :-) Evan is so cute

    *nods* yeah, Cy is down to 2.5 naps now (morning, afternoon, and a catnap in the car on the way home from daycare). I just should have known something was up; he napped poorly at daycare yesterday too, and since he's been a really good napper for weeks now, the sudden change in pattern should have signaled that something was amiss. Oh well.
    I hope his teeth stop bothering him really soon! By the way, I love your siggy gif. You have my vote. :D

  • Today was my cousin's fiance's funeral. All funerals are sad but this particular one was one of the saddest I've ever been to
  • @CalinAZ‌ how beautiful is Evan! I love your decorations it looks great!
  • Today was my cousin's fiance's funeral. All funerals are sad but this particular one was one of the saddest I've ever been to

    Big hugs, lady. I've been to one like that - young cousin, died suddenly in her sleep, left a 6 month old behind - it was so raw and intense, and I'm about to cry just remembering. I hope it helped everyone process and grieve. I'm so sorry.
    Oh my gosh I'm so sorry about your cousin. It almost seems worse than my baby cousin losing his mom. That baby must have cried for a while wondering where his momma was.
  • Thanks you all.
  • I have been obsessed with crackers and cheese lately. It's all I want to eat

    B has an ear infection and has been so pitiful for the past 24 hours :-( it's also been a fight to get the meds in her, but I have been enjoying all the extra cuddles.

    Oh and I've had an eye twitch since Monday, which is annoying.
  • DH wanted to keep the washer/dryer that the new house had.  I took one look and said "NOPE!"  No front-loader for me!!  We are keeping the dryer, though, hopefully HE dryers don't suck as much as HE washers?

    So how tacky is it that if we had had a girl, we were seriously considering naming her Aurelia, after my favorite movie?

    That was my "name" in high school French class. So pretty!
  • So far I am unimpressed with this storm of the century.
    My husband and I have been saying that this was like a normal Kentucky fall day... Too much hype, a whole lotta nothing where we are. Besides annoying rain obviously... Anyways, nothing new here except that Isla has an ear infection and I'm using all my willpower to not eat her bubble gum amoxicillin. It smells declious!
    That was my favorite medicine as a kid! I loved it. I've been prescribed amoxicillin a few times as an adult. I should've requested the bubble gum liquid kind.

  • I left Tulare this afternoon and it was a normal day there. Am in Lompoc now and it's windy, but it's always windy here. Needless to say there will be no Atlas Missle launch tonight. There were mild sprinkles, that might be considered mist. DH is back at home in the valley so we shall see what happens. I have to go to LA on Saturday so hopefully it isn't bad.
  • @celticlullaby What was the cause of your cousin dying in her sleep? That's so scary. I almost started crying when I thought about that earlier when I was getting Edolie back to sleep. If something happened to me, she could potentially be at home without help for several hours. The thought terrifies me. :(

  • Yeah the Nevada side of the storm was rather boring, but there really were big enough waves on Tahoe for surfing
    lost power a few times at work, but never enough to get to go home :( a few trees fell as well, but none around me
