marshian, toothbrushing is the worst. I have my wisdom teeth so I have to get way back in my mouth to brush and it is always touch and go. Taking pills is bad for me, too. I have to make sure I take them on an empty stomach or I will gag to the point of throwing up. I had no issues with gagging during my first pregnancy.
We switched cleaning ladies. Before it was 3 ladies who would stay for about 2 hours. Now it's one lady who stays for 6 hours. She washes my sheets and washes/folds all the laundry. This could very well be my most favorite thing ever.

I'm 41 weeks today and am kinda ready to get this show on the road! I'm stuffing my face with no bake cookies at the moment. Erm, I mean pre-lactation cookies, because oatmeal, right?

We used to have a cleaning lady. I want her back so badly and she didn't even do that stuff!

nic1231 - Seriously adorable! How are they doing? How are you doing?
Thank you for asking =) They are doing well. Got moved out of the nicu and into infant care in cribs. Now just need to learn to feed off a bottle completely and we will be home!
I have had sex since well before we got pregnant... DH has low T so it can be hard to get in the mood and I don't mind. He said after we are done needing his fertility he will take all the drugs to improve his libido haha.
I'm trying out my compression gloves today. Everyone is asking what they're for, all except one guy who's wife also had to deal with carpel tunnel while pregnant

Add me to team no sex drive while pregnant. Except lately when I'm all "prostaglandins, please!" but now H is having issues with the belly/baby. I'm looking forward to sex in like 4 months when I'm no longer pregnant nor sore.
Okay, I'm second-guessing our stroller decision. We originally wanted to go with the Baby Jogger Vue Lite because it's an umbrella stroller which has the option of parent-facing (the biggest thing I want in a stroller). It's super lightweight and not expensive.
However, now I've been thinking about logistics of getting baby to daycare, I'm going to have my work bag, plus baby's bag (bottles, cloth diapers, etc), and the baby. The storage on the Vue is extremely small and uses velcro to hold it in place, so probably can't hold anything heavy. Reviewers were not fans of the basket.
Now I'm looking at the Mamas & Papas Armadillo Flip because you can fold it while parent-facing. Any experience with this stroller or know of another smaller/lighter-weight stroller you can fold while parent-facing? DNW to have to remove the seat every time to fold it.

I'm here, doing reports because it's the first of the month. I should probably be teaching my assistant leader to do these reports just in case I'm not here April 1st. Oh well.

No advice here. We grabbed the baby jogger city select and I'm excited for it but it isn't small.

My friend who lived in Vietnam has this stroller. It is a quality stroller but still very compact. I have done extensive research on strollers for the past 10 years (some would say obsessive research) but I have to "work" right now. So I can give some more options later.

marshian I have to admit I went out and bought a parent facing stroller once DD was old enough to be out of the infant carrier (which I know you aren't doing), but still small. I was very impressed with everything I read on the Mamas & Papas Armadillo Flip, with the exception of the wheels, but it's going to be impossible to find something that parent facing folds with awesome wheels. I don't know of another stroller that folds while parent facing.
nic1231, I didn't see that you had the babies! Congrats! They are cuties!
I'm jealous of anyone who has a cleaning lady. I'm too poor for that.
And put me in the no sex camp. I have no libido, too much anxiety and hate, literally hate pregnancy orgasms. I can wait until after baby to get back on that train. Poor DH.
That's the only kind of folding I like. Also, I was once the "baby details specialist' at Baby Gap. Which means I was the best at folding baby clothes haha.
