Weekly Randoms- 11/27

I think we finally decided on a name for the baby!  I had a dream that we named her a name we hadn't even been discussing and told DH about it and he liked it.  Plus, he told me he likes it because the baby will have the same initials as him mom (who passed away when he was young).  And our consultation in FL is on her birthday!  I take these all as good signs.

    Can we just pause and talk about Prince Harry’s engagement to Meghan Markle for a second? I have mixed feelings about this. One one hand, I’m completely obsessed with them and love that they’re getting married. Love. It. 

    ...but on the other hand, WTF HE’S MARRYING A 30-SOMETHING AMERICAN WHICH MEANS I TOTALLY HAD A CHANCE. I cannot believe I missed out on being a princess, my one true calling in life. CRAP. 
    WHAT this is the first time I am hearing this.... my husband is British so I feel even closer and yet so far away from being a princess. Dang!  :D
  • @JJMNO1616 girl,  go to the daily Mail online immediately. They have all the details. 
  • @kmalls I didn't realize she was American!  What a scandal that is going to be.  All I was thinking was "The wedding is spring of 18?  Bitch better not steal my baby's thunder!" :p

  • @ngolimento yup, American and also biracial! Amazing! 
  • I feel like the bigger scandal or sticking point was that she was divorced?

    I am irrationally happy about the news. I don't know why it's making me so happy, but it really is! I hope she is ready for the intense scrutiny, my gosh how mean people can be to public folks. 
  • @stalkinghorse yup for sure, being a divorcée seems like it would have been the issue, but I’m glad it’s not! 

    And I’m with you on being irrationally happy about this. I love the royals and I love them! 
  • @kmalls  YES I'm just like you about the royal engagement.  I hope whenever the wedding happens that I'm on leave so I can watch it the whole day! Also I really hope they make one of these cheesy movies about their relationship like they did for William and Kate

    I so have the digital copy of this movie and I have no shame for it LOL

    @sparklingdiamond that is soooo cute about the name.  I hope all of that is great signs to come.  Good luck with the scan tomorrow and hope it comes with some good news.

  • @Dumbgurl04 omg that movie was so spectacularly bad/amazing. I love that you own it!! 

    Side note: I was working in London during the last royal wedding and it was AMAZING. My BFF flew over for it and it was such a great party. I cannot believe I’ll miss out on it this time. DAMN KIDS. 
  • @stalkinghorse the British changed their entire religion to enable divorce, so I would be more shocked if they cared overly much :p.

  • I didnt realize she was divorced...wow, yes, scrutiny for sure.  I always feel sorry for Kate and think she's absolutely amazing. 

    My random is my skin....like WTF??? I've always had combination skin that tended to get oily, including my hair. I was just bragging about my hair the other day and how I don't have to wash it every day now.  Then I decided to try a new face wash rather than one meant for combination skin.  It is Philosophy's Purity which is all natural and meant for any skin type.  After 2 uses, my skin dried out like crazy and broke out in a scaly, red, itchy rash. :(  So not cool.

  • @scuba_chic I’m having issues too! With DD, I had cystic acne that didn’t resolve after I had her. It required oral and topical antibiotics as well as some prescription acne medicine. I still have discoloration with it. This time my skin was good until recently. It’s very bumpy. Not really acne like. More rashy? I’ve also developed this bumpiness on my chest and my face next to my ears. As for my hair, I used to be an every fourth day washer. Took me a year to get it to that point. Almost overnight, it is greasy by the end of day 1  :s I have been wearing a lot of buns. 

    Me (33). DH (37). DD (2.2012). MCs x4. After 4 years & 7 months, due 4.2018!


  • I was a bit surprised they are having a spring wedding. Isn’t Kate due in the spring with the next royal baby?
  • Ugh, dammit I am having spotting and it has me insane with worry.  With my DD1, I didn't bleed at all after the first trimester, so of course this has me in a tizzy.  So far it isn't much, and baby is happily kicking away as I type, but I'm beside myself with worry.

  • Prayers the spotting stops @ngolimento! Will you go to OB tomorrow or at least call?

    Thank you.  I have my A/S on Thursday, but I will call tomorrow if the bleeding stays the same.  I hate this stuff.

  • @bchalm you are a GENIUS for pointing that out.  

    @ngolimento crap, that is very stressful. I’m thinking of you and praying it passes right away so you can cruise into your anatomy scan without any more worries. 

    AFM, just got my Uniqlo order. I bought three pairs of their elastic waistband heat tech pants in a size up from my usual size. Two of them are velvet. I feel like these will be all I wear when it gets cold. So comfortable and stretchy. And reasonably priced. Just thought I would give the heads up since I feel like comfortable and warm pants are hard to find. 
  • @ngolimento i had spotting my entire pregnancy with my 1st. It was so frustrating, but turned out I had a bacterial vaginitis from conception that wasnt caught until the 3rd trimester! I would definitely call and make sure you dont have anything going on in there.
  • @ngolimento I hope it’s nothing!

  • Thinking of you @ngolimento Hopefully it stops and doesn’t come back and turns out to be nothing!

    Me (33). DH (37). DD (2.2012). MCs x4. After 4 years & 7 months, due 4.2018!


  • @ngolimento Thinking of you!  Hoping it stopped now!
  • @ngolimento that is so scary, but very reassuring that baby is kicking away. Hope its stopped this morning!
  • @ngolimento just seeing this now. Hopefully you’re morbing has gone well. Update us whenever you can.
  • @ngolimento. Keep us updated! Sending many good thoughts your way. I had spotting two weeks ago. It was so stressful for me. I called the nurse and she offered to set up a sonogram which I appreciated.  I had no bleeding with my first pregnancy either.

  • @ngolimento I'm glad the bleeding stopped, but how stressful. Keep us posted, I hope you get some answers asap.

  • Ugh it’s been a f’ing DAY already. Highlights: 

    - the laptop we ordered 10 days ago still hasn’t arrived. I called automated customer service and it said it should have been delivered last Wednesday. When I spoke to a human, he said for some reason it’s being shipped from Asia and he doesn’t know why. No timetable for delivery. 

    - unknowingly, my husband was talking to customer service at the same time and the story HE got was that it’s sitting in a warehouse in GA and they don’t know why. They credited us $25 for the inconvenience. Uh, thanks? 

    - DS melted down at preschool drop off 

    - my check engine light went on AGAIN after having the car serviced last week. 

    Can I quit life this week? How the hell is it only Tuesday? 
  • @ngolimento thinking of you and hoping everything is ok! Hopefully the dr will see you today!

    DS was a terror this morning on the commute and drop off. It's his birthday though so I guess he can be angry if he wants to be!


  • @kmalls, I always try to save money with that check engine light situation by going to an auto parts store.   They usually have a device you can use for free that will give you an error code that will let you know what part of the car is causing the problem.  Most of the time you Mass Airflow Sensor is dirty,  and it is an easily accessible part that is cheap to clean (you can buy spray in the auto parts store).  It will ID the problem and you can usually fix it for 10 dollars or less.
    @ngolimento yup that’s what we usually do, but this car is still under warranty so I bring it to the dealer. They said they’ll hook it up to the computer while I’m waiting so hopefully it’ll be another quick fix (on Friday it turned out to be the gas cap) and I’ll be on my way. 
  • @ngolimento I’m sorry you’re going through this. 

    I had bleeding around 30 weeks with DD, and I went to my OB. He sent me immediately to the hospital because I was having full blown contractions. They gave me a shot of Terbutaline to stop the contractions and kept me overnight. 

    I hope it’s nothing like that for you though!!
