It makes me unreasonably mad that DH doesn't like my favorite boy name. I don't know why I'm so upset about it. He has never liked it but I keep thinking he will change his mind. I keep feeling more and more like this baby is going to be a boy and I hate the thought of having to name him a fallback name. It's stupid but I can't stop feeling it.
@rainafire77 that is ridiculous. You can tell your boss to do it themselves. They can't force you to do things like that because you can get in trouble with the agencies that handle liquor/wine/beer distribution. In my state those laws are such a pain in the ass. Does your state post people that don't pay their bills? In my state we would get posted if we were in default on a bill and no other liquor/beer would do business with us. It's quiet embarrassing when your boss constantly forgets to cut checks. We have the funds just pay it! Ugh it drives me crazy.
@SarahFoley725 that's not unreasonable. You can't help you love the name.
@rainafire77 what winery do you work for?!?! We are a member of a boutique winery in Napa. Love the wine but they screw our billing up every time. We are supposed to get our shipping for $1 bc we subscribe to a particular level. They charge us $50 for the shipping every time and we have to request a refund. Maybe we should switch to yours.
@SarahFoley725 my husband HATED my number one boy name with our first. I kept waiting for him to come around and he didn't. We wound up narrowing to a few other names (which I liked, but not nearly as much as my first choice). Within hours of our son being born, my husband totally caved and said I could have my name. Don't rule anything out until it's fresh in his mind what you just went through to get that baby here
@chucksmom15 Is this like a winery membership club? I need to hear more...
Yep. They don't ship to stores for regular sale bc it is a small winery. We joined when we were on a trip in Napa 2 years ago. They ship us 6 bottles of wine every quarter except summer bc it's too hot. It's nice bc it's wine we can't get at the store. Most of the wineries in CA have similar programs.
@psm2462 He will definitely not be changing his mind lol. It's not like he just doesn't care for it, he straight up hates it. He thinks it's all around awful. I guess we will find out tomorrow if it's an issue or not. I like the name we picked together, it's just sad it's not the one I always thought about growing up.
SO has been freaking out all day bc I'm not feeling well. Stop calling and texting...just let me be in my misery! And no I'm not going to the hospital...the baby is moving bc I freaking feel it I'm pretty sure I just have a stupid back to school stomach virus.
The doctor told us they they think they found a spot on the baby's heart so we are seeing a specialist in a week. I'm kinda worried but until they tell me what's definitely wrong I'm just kind of numb about it.
@smorzandoj, feel better! I hope it is a quick lived bug.
My random is that I went back to the gym today for the first time in what feels like forever. I am so sore I can hardly move. I should not be this sore! I did not do very much, thinking I was easing back into it. I was planning on going again tomorrow, but I don't think I will be able to move. WTH?!
Also, my son started kindergarten this week! Que the waterworks. I still can't believe how fast the time went.
@SunflowerMama428 I am so sorry girl. With DD they thought I had marginal cord insertion. Waiting for that high risk ultrasound appointment was absolutely killer. I hope everything turns out to be okay. We are here for you if you need us in the mean time.
@SunflowerMama428 good luck! Sorry you have to wait this out. I had to do the same when my second had a heart issue and it was not a fun four weeks waiting for a fetal echo.
@SarahFoley725 thanks girl. I just don't believe anything is wrong with him. The genetic screening came back low risk and when I googled it, it said more times than not the spot means nothing. So I'm just keeping that mind set until they can confirm something.
@Sunflowermama428 Eek I'm sorry to hear that! I hope you get some answers soon! Try to relax if you can.

@SunflowerMama428 that must be scary for y'all. Keeping you in my thoughts and hoping everything turns out okay. Hang in there!
has anyone seen meatball? I feel like she hasn't commented in a while.
@SarahFoley725 that's not even a bad name! How could he hate it so much. I love the name Liam but I guess it's not for everyone haha. I've had a boy name picked out since 2012 when pregnant with my first DD and now I'm having reservations.
Random stuff thread may18...is that woman really saying it is possible to feel your baby practicing breathing? And then her poll about bmb being positive.

Most often it's just an echogenic cardiac focus. It's very rarely anything wrong, but can be a "soft marker" for other problems, so they're probably just doing a more detailed scan.
My second son had a congenital heart defect that was missed on three ultrasounds and an echocardiogram...now they're doing even more tests on me with this one (I get like 6 level 2 ultrasounds and two Echos). But his heart issue resolved itself at 6 months without surgery - so even a heart problem doesn't necessarily mean a major issue either, thank God
So last night DD was like hey, instead of being asleep I'm going to be up from 12-5! I'm freaking dead. We had to get up early this morning to head to our sex scan and I'm so tired I'm not even pumped. It will come to me.

Ugh, that made me want to post so many things. I can't stand science deniers. "What's the harm if they want to believe they can feel their baby breathing?" Um, the harm is the movie Idiocracy.

@eggplantface Exactly. And those that defend it as "an opinion". No ma'am. An opinion is "I think broccoli is disgusting" or "Honda is a better car than Toyota". Opinion is not "I can feel an implanted egg flowing down my fallopian tubes" or "the baby's heartbeat starts as soon as the egg is fertilized" or "you can feel your baby breathe" or "I'm only 3 weeks pregnant, am showing and felt the baby move!"

@SunflowerMama428 hope it's no big deal. I second the statement that most commonly it is an echogenic intercardiac focus which are said to be seen in as much as 1 in 20 pregnancies. My oldest had it and although the remainder of my pregnancy was filled with worry of downs syndrome since I didn't have any other testing, everything ended up being fine as it is in the majority of cases

@chucksmom15 In Columbus!!! Go Bucks! Although I'm not a huge fan, I do root them on. I'm only 2 and a half hours away from you! Have a good weekend there!
@chucksmom15 I'm jealous! H and I went to rival schools so neither of us wants the baby in the other school's stuff. The good news is I'll be the one home alone with the baby after he goes back to work and I get to dress him in whatever I want when H isn't around

I had a hard core craving for a turkey sub today, so i got a small from wegmans. I get home to find out they forgot to put on my favorite part... the deli oil. Sad/rage face.
Thank you ladies for the thoughts. The lady that schedules the MFM appointments was out today so they are giving me the first automatic appointment that comes up and will let me know when that is on Monday. They said the longest I'll wait was a week and a half to see the doctor but I hate going into the weekend with no plan.
DH got Chinese and we are binging the walking dead season 7. I haven't seen this season yet so that's taking my mind off of things. Anyone else walking dead fans?
@clc515 I LOVE Wegmans and their subs!! I've definitely had a couple while pregnant ( though I played it relatively safe and had them toasted). Sorry yours was missing the best part.
I'm annoyed that Netflix keeps taking all my go to binge shows off. I'm a loyal rewatcher and I need to be able to watch all the seasons of Doctor Who whenever I want. RIP Eureka, Food Network shows, HGTV shows, Bob's Burgers, and soon Raising Hope is being taken from me....nooooo.
Eta if you haven't watched Raising Hope you have til September 20 and you should make it a priority to binge it soon. We love it. I'm rebinging currently, so it's on my mind!

Had to get real with my mom yesterday. I always appreciate when she watches the kids for me if DH is working. She offered to watch the kids for me while I ran a few errands that take twice as long with an almost 2 yr old and 4 year old. As I was halfway to her house she informed me she re-installed DS2's car seat and went ahead and made him forward facing.
We aren't turning him around yet and she didn't even ask. She ended up turning it back around after I offered to do it for her. It made me so mad because she will call to ask if they can have something for lunch or a snack but didn't think to call about his car seat.
