@hellothere47 no you don't require a referral usually, but some insurance might require one in order to cover it. DHs doesn't but mine does. Most OBs or midwives should be happy to write one. My midwife just wrote "pelvic floor physiotherapy" on a prescription pad with my name and her signature and that did it for my insurance! Lol

Does the snoogle have sleep crack in it? I just don't understand how a pillow can actually get me to sleep so well.

flowerpower5838 · October 2017

@hellothere47 I have HMO insurance so I would need a referral for sure. It likely depends on your specific insurance policy.

babybison · October 2017

@tamaraaaa Maybe they add in catnip for preggos. Would be a good selling feature.

Fixing wedgies has become increasingly more difficult when the pants reach my boobs.

If you guys use Spotify, I highly suggest checking out "Your Time Capsule" playlist. Mine is absolutely fabulous and VERY timely to the Wednesday Ticker Check GTKY question. Jimmy Eat World, SoCo, Nelly, Saves the Day, Robyn....it's more than I could have ever asked for in a TBT playlist.

There was a January baby born...

Marley629 · October 2017

Oh wow @jlemons-2. Keeping that LO in my prayers

katiegeminimoon · October 2017

@jlemons-2 woah. I hope mama and baby continue to do well!

kaylawing · October 2017

@jlemons-2 wow. Keeping that Mom and baby in my thoughts. I was reading on October today for baby announcements, but never would have thought to check January. Hope baby is okay!!

jlemons-2 · October 2017

I hope so too, that is very early. I'm so glad we have come so far medically.

dkizz82 · October 2017

Oh my goodness @jlemons-2. That is so scary. Praying for that baby and mom and praying our baby’s stay put

MJDsquared · October 2017

I haven't read it yet, but someone on January pointed out dramz in the June 2018 UO thread. (It got closed and everything!) I'm about to dive in.

elcd458 · October 2017

@MJDsquared I just read it. It was kind of dumb. Even for the social justice warriors here on Dec 17 I feel like taking the UO counter-argument to that extreme was unnecessary and wouldn't have occurred here! But... according to that logic I guess that makes me sexist.

And then oof, OP had to go and start defending herself with really off-topic commentary. All the facepalms.

babybison · October 2017

@MJDsquared @elcd458 Aside from the actual topic, I thought the gif use was fantastic.

MJDsquared · October 2017

@elcd458 It was just very long. I didn't expect the drama to start on page one and continue to page four with very very long paragraphs of responses. It was draining. Lol. I also wouldn't have carried on the argument that long.

@babybison Oh yes, the gif game was on point!

peachy13 · October 2017

Oof that thread, way too long. June 2018 seems so far away. It's pretty crazy each time a new BMB pops up.

Wow about the Jan baby... hope everything is okay. I've been getting kind of nervous lately about going into labor too early.

breezybee · October 2017

Yeah, I didn't post about the June 18 drams, since I thought it was kinda meh. Showed some promise for the future though

elcd458 · October 2017

Speaking of the January baby, has anyone heard from @SierraGood lately? Wasn't she in the hospital at one point? Or am I confused?

failuretofly · October 2017

Ugh the June drama was just too much. To summarize for those too lazy to read:
1st person *sexist UO*
2nd person "you're sexist"
1st "no I'm not, here's why"
2nd "yes you are
Lurkers "ya you're definitely sexist"
1st "no I'm not"

And on and on and on... and I didn't even finish it

anewadventure · October 2017

@elcd458 i haven't seen her around in a while. luckily she seemed to recover from her scare and was home from the hospital and doing fine.

is @vvitchhazel ever coming back? she moved and left us all behind with her old life? lol

babytimeagain · October 2017

@failuretofly That about sums it up!

katiegeminimoon · October 2017

@anewadventure she actually can’t get onto the bump anymore!!! Her app won’t work no matter what she does and she doesn’t/can’t get on from a computer

I was going to see what everyone thought about inviting her to the fb group??

ETA: She as in vvichhazel haha

mdcd44127 · October 2017

@ktcakes87 Oh my gosh, absolutely! Wouldn't be fair to exclude her because TB is being dumb, and I'm sure we'd all love to catch up with her and see how she's doing.

Marley629 · October 2017

@elcd458 I haven't seen her post since she was in the hospital last. I hope all is good with her and that she's just too busy right now. @SierraGood - we are thinking of you!

failuretofly · October 2017

I don't remember where the original discussion on this was (maybe last weeks FFFC?) But the topic of leaving your baby/kid in the car briefly came up at work today and a coworker totally shamed me hard in front of a group of people for even suggesting it (I said something along the lines of "I mean you can't even leave your kid in a car to run in to an ATM these days"). And it was like the judgement in her eyes pierced my soul. Needless to say we will NOT be discussing parenting going forward.

babybison · October 2017

Just throwing this out there, but I saw Loving Vincent last night and I wanted to recommend it. I didn't know anything about Vincent van Gogh, but 125 artists hand-painted the whole movie in his style. It was kind of like a murder mystery? Really neat.

eazybreezy225 · October 2017

Ugh... this is me at this point in the game... And I still have 6 weeks 5 days to go.

kyrwyn · October 2017

Someone in our childbirth class today mentioned snissing and it took me a moment to realize that @failuretofly wouldn't just materialize out of thin air to say "Pelvic Floor PT!". Because RL is not TB.

failuretofly · October 2017

@kyrwyn hahaha I love it! It's so great that, that's the first thought that popped into your head

AFM I volunteered to work 12 hours instead of my usual 8 today so a coworker could attend thanksgiving with her family... Ugh Why? This is gonna suck haha. Especially because Sunday's are usually notoriously busy in emerg! Though it *might* be okay since tomorrow is a holiday... here's hoping!
And DH is also working today, and our dayhome is closed on weekends, so we have a babysitter coming over to stay with DS. She's watched him before, but it's been a while, and my hormonal mama bear brain just wants to call in sick to work and call it off because what if he cries and she can't comfort him?!?!
TELL ME ITS GOING TO BE OKAY!

failuretofly · October 2017

@djd0404 thanks!

The handoff this morning went well with no tears when I left so hopefully I'm just overreacting and he's fine. (I'm sure he will be)

failuretofly · October 2017

There were 3 BFPs on TTGP today!

failuretofly · October 2017

ALSO so many layers of drama on the June intros thread... that board is going to be fun to lurk hahaha

skc040512 · October 2017

@failuretofly holy drama, Batman. It makes me want to comb the archives of previous BMBs and figure out the backstory.

cait5413 · October 2017

I never could find the other thread on that board that was closed, but they are definitely starting out with a bang!

MJDsquared · October 2017

@cait5413 For some reason it got deleted! I don't really know why you'd close a thread just to delete it later.

failuretofly · October 2017

For anyone who's interested - The Leaky Boob (a breastfeeding blogger) is currently in labor with her 7th child at home and is broadcasting via livestream on YouTube:

tamaraaaa · October 2017

Don't watch Dancing with the Stars from last night unless you want to cry uncontrollably.

dkizz82 · October 2017

So.... a November baby has been born. We are getting soooooo close.

kyrwyn · October 2017

My dog will go to ridiculous lengths to appear to "accidentally" be snuggling with the snoogle. I just caught her very gingerly pulling one arm of it toward her blanket (at the foot of the bed) so that she could then splay out and just baaaarely be touching it with her head. When she has a small human as an accomplice, we're going to be in trouble.
