I ate a HUGE piece of carrot cake for breakfast and left my two hardboiled eggs and kiwi just sitting here. Today sucks and darn it, I just felt like eating cake. Eff it.
Meagan Married 6.12.10 DS 11.8.12 Baby GIRL! due 7.4.18
@stlmegs i did eat a bag of spicy Doritos lol i didn’t have time to pack breakfast or lunch today so i had a chocolate muffin from the gas station. Finally shaved my lower legs since early December. I rarely shave my thighs.
I also just shaved my legs for the first time since I'd like to admit lol. Only because I have a work party tonight that I am wearing a dress to so it was necessary
I have to wear a heart monitor for a day and I’m regretting even mentioning my symptoms to my doctor because it’s so annoying.
I also have been eating pizza 2-3 times per week because it is literally the only food I can even think about eating. I probably should have mentioned that to the cardiologist.....
My husband is being indecisive and is dragging in figuring out how he wants us to do the big reveal at the gender reveal party. His ideas are always so elaborate and I know it'll be me that gets stuck putting it all together. So I just ordered confetti cannons today and hope that will be enough and we can start planning other things.
TTC History:
Me: 36 H: 40 Married 2015. Together since 2010. TTC: Sept 2016-Oct 2017 BFP Oct 2017. DD born July 2018. TTC: March 2020. BFP March 2020 Due date was Nov 2020 DS born Sept 2020. DS passed away Nov 2020 due to prematurity and birth trauma. TTC: March 2021 IUI #1 Nov 2021, BFN IUI #2 Dec 2021 BFP. MC Jan 2022 IUI #3 Aug 2022 BFN IUI #4 Sept 2022 BFN AMH test came back at .081. Was going to move on to IVF with DE, but have decided not to. Will be leaving it up to the universe now.
I have not worn deodorant in years. Haven't needed it, you can ask DH or anyone I workout with. But this last week I had to steal DH's until I could get to the store. I suspect it's part of the delights of pregnancy for me.
@KellyFM522 I had a friend and her husband legit go on a Chipotle diet where they just ate Chipotle burritos once a day and that was their only meal, lol. They probably still drank. I don't remember how long it lasted, but I am SURE they did not lose weight. So what I am saying is, there is NEVER to many days in a row.
This is major flame worthy but eh, whatevs. I don't recognize a bunch of new posters that seem to have just jumped into posts like they're regs. I do read the intro thread but either I've missed a shit ton of intros or newbs just aren't doing them. And it bugs me. I always envision a group of women in a room having nice conversation and then someone new runs in and shouts "Can anyone tell me if I'm having a boy or girl?" or *walks in a lifts shirt* "I'm 14 weeks today!".
Edited to add that it's probably more of an UO but I don't really care today.
@TalesOfASocialIntrovert I do see it more like women in a room having a convo and people coming up and saying, "hey my names_____. whatcha talking about? Oh I have an opinion!" I think your only option as a newb jumping in on threads is to just comment where relevant, otherwise it would be hard to get involved. I am assuming you mean the new names popping up in actual threads, not any one off posts?
@wildtot and @moguippy *raises hand* um, I don't know when the last time I shaved my legs was. I've been wearing tights all winter so I haven't bothered!
Mine is I’m looking forward to This is Us after the Super Bowl way more than the actual Super Bowl. We have a family party here every year and I make food and host, but in my mind I’m planning a This us party.
Regarding new posters, you gotta start somewhere... on my other BMB I lurked my entire 1st and most of my 2nd tri because I felt like somehow by getting comfortable enough about my pregnancy it would jinx me (TW, I have a history of reoccurring early loss).
@TalesOfASocialIntrovert I really really need to learn not to drink anything while reading these things. Such a funny image!
I guess I'm somewhere in the middle on that issue. I guess it bugs me when people don't contribute except for a drive by and ask a question about something that has been discussed 18 million times, in the same thread. To me, if someone has lurked for a while and is just now jumping in, and is easing into contributing I don't mind. I just noticed there were some new intros within the last week or two that I had completely missed. There just needs to be a balance, it can't all be about just posting the latest bump pic or US, otherwise then it is totally like walking into a room and lifting up your shirt.

Lots of people will drop off, especially after the babies are born. I bonded with July 13 once we were all up in the MOTN with sleepless babies. We still all talk every day.
