Speaking of painful poops... I was eating oatmeal for breakfast everyday. I was still having all the painful poops that I had assumed were still left over from being pregnant but now that I stopped with the oatmeal everything is much more comfortable and regular in the bathroom. Seems weird...
Shark Week returned last month and now I have no idea what my cycle will be like. Since I work a 12-hr day with no break today, I'm just assuming it will decide that today is the day.
I finally got laid. I guess the Mirena has finally decided to stop wreaking havoc on my uterus. At least I'm hoping it is finished, because, frankly, mama missed getting laid.
My mother in law gave me perfume and sexy underwear for mother's day, along with a card that says can't wait for a granddaughter! Slow down, woman! Ain't nobody got time for that.
1. I put Mentholatum (like Vicks) up my nose in an effort to be able to breathe when I was sleeping last night. It totally worked, but now the inside of my nose feels slimy.
2. I started specific exercises for my abs/pelvic floor two weeks ago, and haven't had any painful poops since then. Because I haven't done anything different in my life, I'm assuming that the exercises are helping. This is awesome!!
When I'm sick I put Vicks EVERYWHERE. Behind my ears, all over my face, my neck my chest, up my nose. And going along with the baby trick I even put it on the bottoms of my feet and put socks on. I'm a looney tune. But I swear it works.

Also this is more of a rant but I hate when grandparents specifically ask for a baby of the opposite sex. A) It makes me feel that you don't appreciate my firstborn child and B) What if baby #2 is the same sex as baby #1? Will you still be happy?
ETA: I don't really have anything gross other than DS woke up with dried snot all over his arms.

I completely agree! With DS her first response was "Oh, it's not a girl. Well I'll still love him." Umm thanks for your lukewarm reaction? He is her first grandchild so you would think that she would have been more excited. And now that she is talking about a granddaughter, it is starting to irritate me. I would be over the moon if we could have a 2nd child regardless of the sex.

My mom was sooooo upset it wasn't a girl. I think that she cried when she found out it was a boy. It made me feel awful like I had failed. I couldn't be happier with my little boy!

How ridiculous! We have just seen so many friends go through infertility that we learned what a gift each child is.
nannygoat my LO had a major blowout yesterday. It was so bad I had to yell for my 15 year old to help me clean him and everything he touched up. Josh now calls Thomas "Slimer".

That made my mom sound terrible. she got over it quick and loves him so much now. She is not terrible! Oops.

I just got the paraguard. My lower stomach and everything under were so damn crampy. I was terrified of even entertaining the thought of some nookie.

Thanks for the encouragement nannygoat and @txaggie08 , I think I took LO for a walk in my neighborhood at the hottest part of the day yesterday. When I got home I stripped LO and myself in our air conditioned bedroom. My nether regions were uncomfortably sweaty so I bent down and aired them out using the window AC unit. DH of course walked in at that moment.

Hahaha that's awesome! I could only imagine his reaction.

My family is all sick. We seem to have contracted some stomach bug. My BF and I both have horrendous stomach cramps and diarrhea. My 12 year old was supposed to be at "outdoor school" for this week, but she called me in the middle of the night last night and said that I needed to come get her. Apparently, she got the bug too, and had vomited and had an accident in her brand new sleeping bag. She feels horrible...but I think I'd rather trash the sleeping bag and buy a new one, than to clean it out. There's no way I want my laundry room smelling like shit...

It was silent blinking, following by "uhhhh" with his eyes downcast. That area needs air too, dammit

Yeah, she feels really bad, but I keep reminding her that it's not her fault. I think the part she feels worst about is that I had to drive an hour each way to get her, in the middle of the night, when Tuesday morning is my early day, with meetings at work and such. She just kept saying how sorry she was. Coffee is my BFF today! ;-)

I love this! If I was my BF doing something like this, I'd probably jokingly ask if I was interrupting anything. Honestly, though, during the summer months, I tend to use the fan to cool my lady parts when I get out of the shower. No shame...she needs lovin' too!

I bargained a blow job for a back rub on Sunday. I still have no interest in sex plus I keep forgetting the mini pill so that's all my husband gets right now and he was only too willing to barter for it. Lol
