Because this hasn't been started yet and I need to tell someone that a generous splash of OJ in a glass of ginger ale tastes like a mimosa.
Re: Weekly Randoms - 12/17
Like wtf morning sickness I thought we had our shit figured out.
Oh and wtf crusty leaky boobs...already
@harrierwife i have been enjoying large glass of ice with 7 up some OJ and grenadine.
There is a guy who is really annoying me at work. He constantly comes up to my desk when I'm clearly on a conference call and tries to ask me questions. And he is a smoker and drinks coffee and will ask them so close to my face that I want to puke. Personal space, people! Respect it!
@sparklingdiamond I can’t have my phone with me at work, so I feel like that’s break enough. I just use it for so much more like pics, my calendar, my email... I don’t even really use social media apps anymore except for this so I feel like I can give myself a pat on the back for that.
@luckystar28 I think we are DD buddies so yes, totally in the 2nd trimester. I’m very excited about it! Now that I’m kinda showing for real it’s starting to get real real. Excited for this baby to get born!!
@canuckbaby the biggest thing I found weird about the avocado was, when do you see a 4.6” avocado?? That seems like a big avocado. Maybe I just don’t know relative measurements
But yes, the disparity between baby “sizes” is comical. I can’t even take it seriously anymore lol
Anyone know when the 2nd trimester officially starts? I thought it was at week 13 but the what to expect when you’re expecting book says week 14. I called it at week 12 haha
Hard to believe we’re in/near second tri!
I'm 14w on Wednesday. This train needs to slow down.
@carleym93 yeah I think this is crown to rump
measurements. I think at this point baby stays pretty crunched up and they’re still pretty small so I think it’s too hard to get an accurate measure of full length. I think they start to do full length measurements in 3rd trimester.
@antera23 and @ShadeofGreen816 I think TB and this other pregnancy journal I have seem to agree that the start of Week 14 is the start of 2nd trimester. Part of the reason could be that because we do LMP as the basis, the first two weeks you don’t really have a baby gestating, so maybe that’s why it’s 14 instead of 12. Who knows? Go with what you feel 😋
@antera23 I think everyone has a different idea about this but I think the end of week 13 (so when you “turn” 14 weeks) is when 2nd tri starts. I say call it whatever makes you feel best!
@wearyfuzzball That sounds horrible. Especially with the bionic pregnancy nose.
AFM, I spent the whole day in the ER with my son who fell down our entire flight of hardwood stairs, onto our hardwood fooor. Horrifying. Thankful for no head injury and still waiting to see if he’ll start to walk on his right leg or if he’s going to need a cast. Feeling like mom of the year over here. Safe to say it’s time to get that carpet runner we’ve been talking about installed...
1. @pbtoast YIKES about your son! Hope he can avoid the cast. Either way, accidents happen...no judgment here, unless you were the one who pushed him, and even then it might hinge on the circumstance.
2. @harrierwife since we're both riding the Lacroix train, try mixing OJ and lime Lacroix. It's totally a dry-champagne mimosa.
Night, all!
I took my two year old to see some reindeer today. Once she saw them, she immediately asked me where the ducks are. Could literally care less about the reindeer and was just convinced I was hiding a gang of ducks from her. Toddlers are funny.
does anyone watch Dirty John? I just watched the latest ep and the main character is making me so mad.
Okay... random thoughts completed.
@pbtoast - I'm laughing at your post ONLY because you're in good company, here. No judgment whatsoever, unless like others have said, you pushed your son down the stairs. I really hope your son is alright! And welcome, late-party-crasher
I'm jealous of anyone else feeling regular movement. I maybe felt something last night but then again maybe it was just a gas bubble? I don't know? I thought I was supposed to feel it the second time around earlier but I guess I'm not good at differentiating between gas and baby. I suppose when there's a foot in my rib again I'll know it then.
Is anyone planning to watch The Bachelor? I want to start a thread when it starts, but I don't want to be talking to myself in there.

It’s so hard to believe we are basically second trimester now, I am 14 weeks today (or yesterday depending on which counter I am looking at). I thought I felt movement but I honestly can’t be sure (you’d think the 4th time around id be better at knowing) but we my last I didn’t feel movement until almost 20 weeks.
DH took the day off to get more work on the house done, he works 6 days a week and never takes a day off for any reason. I was so excited until I actually had to be around him all morning. I am totally ok with him work 6 days a week as a hard rule 🤣
@pbtoast I’m so sorry about your son! Children are just walking danger zones. When I was 6 I wanted to see if could bear crawl down our very steep stairs. I couldn’t... lol.
Also when I was 6 I wanted to see if the burner was really hot when it turned red. So I touched it. It was hot!
I feel it right above my bikini line, and right under the surface (not towards my back). I only feel gas up higher with the rest of my small intestine and towards the back in my large intestine....my pulse is up above my belly button. The movement feels like little bubbles, flutters, or as @meatballs37 so eloquently put it, like "bloops" from a fish on the side of a plastic bag filled with water.
Its easiest for me to feel when I'm wearing pants with a band that goes right over that area of my waist.
Though some say that the placenta placement has a lot to do with feeling early movement?
I'm 16w tomorrow and seem to feel movement a lot for like 1-2 days and then not again for 4, which messes with brain.
