Denzel Washingtons face looked pissed to me when Casey Affleck won for best actor. I mean, I was pissed too, but I also didn't have a camera on me! Lol you're and actor Denzel, act happy and gracious for just being nominated. 😆
I am the worst at hiding my emotions. You can see everything on my face.
This is why I was nervous about my baby shower. Totally thought I'd get a ton of things not on my registry and be annoyed AF.
Oh me too girl. You always know where you stand with me. But, if I was in Denzel's situation, I'd plaster a smile on my face. Casey should not have won regardless though.
I'm here! I started having somewhat regular contractions during the night although they weren't particularly strong. My doctor checked me this morning and I'm still only about 1cm but we started the pitocin about an hour ago and things definitely seem to be picking up
I think the 27th is a great day to have a beautiful baby girl
Heyyy!! Little Ollie is half baked today!! I'm so excited!!
The week of Half Baked Baby Celebration includes: -anatomy scan on Tuesday - Fat Tuesday dinner with hubs on Tuesday - dinner with another 20 week gf on Wednesday - a prenatal massage on Wednesday
Knowing that we're halfway there makes me so happy! I can't wait to meet my sweet little babe!
I'm really digging your half-baked celebration plans. I may or may not be looking at a calendar to see if any holidays fall around that point for me.
When will it be for you?? It's a little bit silly but we've been looking forward to this point for so long. The first half was so, so scary. I told myself I'd try and relax if we could at least make it halfway. I know nothing is really different than it was yesterday, but I almost feel like I accomplished something, ya know?
How much should baby be moving at 23 (almost 24) weeks? I get strong movement usually around lunch, dinner, and at bedtime. What's typical/normal?
Also, I still lay on my stomach to read (with a leg propped on a pillow, Captain Morgan style). Bad idea? It doesn't hurt and I only do it for about 15 minutes.
Movement around meal times sounds right. I'd also feel movement if my stomach was loud sometimes. Movement at bedtime or during quiet periods keeps happening.
You can lay on your stomach as long as you want. Eventually it might start to hurt or feel super uncomfortable, like you're laying on a ball or pillow and squishing your lungs and insides. You'll know when to stop. The tripod leg up is fine if it works for you - it ruins my back to sleep that way, but I have a bad lower back to start.
When you think about it, while we're active, we lull baby to sleep and rest. Once we stop, they tend to wake up which is why it's common for babies to be up all night (and keeping us up) or when we're relaxing.
Unless it's my kid, who likes to kick me to roll over because he's not happy with how I'm laying, just like big brother. Sigh

I didn't stay up for oscars but I'm still moving slowly today. I have so much work to do, but I'm completely distracted and stressed about our u/s today.
But, MH and I decided to do a quick last minute ski (for him) getaway this weekend. We are staying at a kind of iffy hotel but it was all we could get last minute with one night only stay. I just like getting away, don't really care where we go. He will ski all day both days and I'll probably read and work and meet him for lunch and have lots of glorious me time. I'm really hoping we get the ok for sex...it's been a really freaking long time!
I also wanted to go to the spa at the resort at the mountain, but literally the cheapest treatment is $135, I just can't justify that.
This sounds like fun! Where are you guys headed (general area)??
That sounds like a nice, relaxing weekend. Maybe you can treat yourself to a spa treatment somewhere cheaper next weekend.
What time is your u/s? Sending you positive thoughts!
2pm...hoping I can get enough work done to just relax after it, but time seems to moving very slowly since it's all I can think about!
Maybe taking myself for something yummy for lunch ahead will help the time go...
when I have days like this, I always try and immerse myself in work that requires 100% of my brain. way I don't even have time to think about or count the hours. Hope it goes by quickly!

I'm not good at hiding them either! Also nervous for any situation where I'm opening gifts in front of people.

Killington, VT...it's his favorite mountain, and we wanted to go back bc of its fun scene...of course...I'm not up for much of a fun scene these days, ha! I wanted to go for two nights, rent cabin, bring the dogs...but he's too hard to pin down and commit to things and winter is (hopefully!) almost over so it was time to just do something.

TTMA nipple flaking. I normally wear nude colored bras but yesterday I was wearing a black nursing bra and nursing tank and noticed flakes around my nipples...
Dried colostrum? Dry skin? Do I pick it off my nipples....

Unfortunately I have super boring work today, mostly reading a 140 page court opinion. I can't focus on it (as you can tell by my flurry of activity here...ha).

Want me to come meet you at the spa?!?
That would be fun!! I'm still not sold on any of their offerings...I've been looking for something nearby with better (priced) options...

This happened to me last time. It freaked me out, so I just avoided looking or touching. That's very helpful I'm sure ;-)

It's probably dry skin. Your breasts are changing to prepare for BF'ing (well if you want to do that, that is). I normally leave it alone, but if they are itchy I put on lotion.
Oh me too girl. You always know where you stand with me. But, if I was in Denzel's situation, I'd plaster a smile on my face. Casey should not have won regardless though.

I have a coworker who will discreetly remind me to "check your face" in meetings, lol.

I have a coworker who is doing this for me on this project because I don't want to slip around the project manager when she is being completely batty.
I think I need to stop wearing my toddler for a two mile walk in the morning. Squating down to pick up after the dog (and pick up whatever she inevitably drops) is hard, and my hips aren't loving it. But damn, walking H to his shuttle bus was such an efficient way to get me and the dog some exercise and a good chance to talk. Why can't I have one of those kids who likes the stroller?

I'm so tired and don't feel like doing anything today. I'm sore and it's all rainy/dreary outside. I'll probably go to the gym and ride the bike just to get a break from parenting. #MOTYhere

Poor girl. I hate days like that. I always have to reward myself periodically in order to get through long documents like that. (10 more pages and I can go to lunch...15 more pages and I'll have a snack...40 pages and I can TCF for 15 minutes.) I'm like a toddler, lol.

April 18th according to my app. It feels so far away!
And I totally understand. I'm definitely having trouble feeling excited- I'm just so anxious about what could go wrong. I can only imagine the relief of getting to halfway, and knowing viability is only a few weeks away.

Serious question- have you squeezed them at all? That'll give you the answer... I get it, too. For me, it's dried colostrum, but I also have it come out if I squeeze them at all.
