WiReD Wednesday

[mrscatfarmer13]

Need moar coffee is my motto of the day. 

[mrscatfarmer13]

My morning literally started with a wakeup call at 3:30. My mom was in a ton of pain and going to the ER. It's her gallbladder, so I'm assuming surgery today or tomorrow.

[vlagroupie]

Oh no mrscatfarmer13 I'm sorry hope your mom gets better. All the coffee for you.

[mominthemaking14]

@mrscatfarmer oh no praying for your mom. Speedy recovery vibes.

[mominthemaking14]

Toddler 2 and Mom 0. Pants are so tight... I need that panel lindsay does it really work ? I refuse to buy black pants so it's just leggings and jeans.

Happy hump day.

A pair of maternity dress pants was necessary for me. The panel works too but usually my butt gets too big for my regular pants with the panel.

The baby slept through the night but the cat woke us up all night long since my mom was there. We couldn't catch him to throw him outside.

Did you feel exposed with the panel? The dress code is casual but in my role I should wear them more often I just rebel

Are you talking about the belly band so you can wear your pants undone? It worked for me for several weeks. I never felt exposed. Just make sure you get the kind with the rubber strip so it stays put. But I agree, it wouldn't work for my entire pregnancy. At some point I can't get the pants on even when they're unbuttoned.

mominthemaking14 I feel like the panels are good but not long term. Even with DD I still busted out maternity pants halfway through. I say get a couple, they're more comfortable that just the belly band panels!

Unless we're confusing this with the support band? If so I still need to get one..

The band that goes over your regular pants will always roll up when you're sitting down in the back so you definitely have to get it all adjusted before you can start walking away- and I would have to unzip my pants, not just unbutton them.
I preferred the full waist panel black dress pants from motherhood. Get the shiny ones, not the cotton. Everything stuck to my cotton ones.

Ok thabks just looking for a quick solution

[lindsay]

Ugh this morning. I was wide away in the middle of the night which is becoming a common occurrence. Slept in since I was planning to WFH today, but having computer issues and Helpdesk is no help...

[vlagroupie]

mrscatfarmer13 sorry hope your momma feels better soon.
becole yay for baby sleep! Ugh cat, I've been there. My cat knows how to scratch the door in the most annoying way to keep us awake.
lindsay sorry for the preg. Insomnia that was the worst. Hope you can have a sort of relaxing day.

[vlagroupie]

Waiting on landscaper to get here. Getting a quote for spring cleanup. Then LC appt this afternoon, hope I get some answers/solutions.

Yes he was definitely scratching and he actually opens the basement door. That's where my mom was sleeping so I had to go down and lock the door. He was just shutting our door.

[chrispy1122]

So tired. E woke up like every hour last night because she was so stuffed up she couldn't breathe. I felt so bad for her. Now I'm like newborn baby phase tired.

Give me all the coffee.

My cats hate a closed door. I got a cat door for our bedroom door so we can have some privacy but they can come and go.

Ours too. I need a cat door on every door of the house. Asshole.

GAP had decent ones too especially for me being short.

Lolz told a male colleague that I still have 6-8 weeks to go and just got a look of why are you so large?

[lindsay]

JoBub what size support band did you get?

I think I got a M. I was between two sizes based on how they were labeled for pre-pregnancy size. So I went with the larger one. It's all velcro and elastic where you pull the straps tight and then velcro them down, so it's not an exact science. I think the small would have fit me also. The difference is that with the M I'm pulling it and fastening it more toward the front, and if I got the small it would be fastened more on the side, and the bulkiness would be on the sides. But I still think it's not very obvious under my clothes even with it fastened way in front. Hope that makes sense
