my bff and I just had lunch, so that she could vent. she just came back from Mat leave and is complaining about a promotion they want to give her......its not ideal since they arent giving her the credit she deserves or making her equal to the level of work she does, but really?? like this is a problem??
Not all promotions are a good thing. I got one before i got pregnant with baby girl #1 and i regret taking it. Should have stayed where i was because i would have been much happier.
Amazon is having prime day next week. I have no idea what deals might be but I think my bank account might take a hit.
I saw this! They say they'll have more deals than Black Friday. If we were just one more month along, I might consider stocking up on some big ticket baby items... But DH and I feel pretty strongly that we won't buy anything until 2nd tri.

Headache tonight. Blah. Given the success I had with Tylenol last pregnancy (aka: none), I'm giving caffeine/sugar a try. Lady grey tea with cream and sugar. Not working, but definitely tasty!

I'm definitely checking out the Amazon sale. Luckily, we don't need the really big ticket items. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the extra camera for our monitor goes on sale. I wonder if they'll say what the sales are ahead of time...

I'm going to need another video monitor because I still want to spy on dd. We have a dropcam which is nice but when the internet is out it doesn't work. We also have a cheaper one that I reviewed for my blog. What one do you have?
I also need a double stroller, cloth diapers and we only have one convertible car seat (in my car) for dd.
And then after that I'm hoping to get dd a few things for her birthday like an easel and doll stuff.
I have the whole day to myself tomorrow and I don't know what to do....I've been asking for some me time, and now that I get it I don't know what to do. I can't go far from home since I'm doing a 24-hour urine collection, but need and should do something I can't do when DS is home.

We have the Summer Infant video monitor. It works great and it's one of the most expensive out there, and doesn't go over wifi. I was pleased to see that I can just get another camera and use the same monitor to spy on both rooms.
I also need a double stroller. I've been thinking about the Britax B Agile but there's so many options out there it's hard to decide!

DH has been bugging me to DTD. It's really irritating because I feel like crap!
My husband has been a saint about this. It's been two weeks. I keep having amazing sex dreams, but the nausea and exhaustion have kept me from following through. I really need to though.
Gah I feel really bad... It's been over a month. :/
At first he was afraid to, and then we had the blighted ovum scare, and now I feel like shit every evening. Poor guy

I am not sleeping very soundly lately, so I've been making sure I get some time to myself to drift off to sleep before DH comes into bed and starts snoring otherwise I toss and turn all night. Thus, our conversation just now: Me: "I think I'm going to head upstairs." DH: "I think I might go to bed too--" Me: "No." DH: "... At a later time though of course."

I woke up so many times last night. I ended up falling asleep with the ice pack on my thigh for my bee sting, I woke up this morning with it on the floor. Though in good news, the swelling has stopped and seems to be retreating! Yay for that
I'm so tired now though, it was a rough night with the itching. I hope tonight is a bit more restful. I'm at work waiting for it to be time to eat breakfast, I have a few things that I need to get done first though, otherwise I'll end up letting my bagel get cold.

Yay for the swelling going down! Hope you continue to recover quickly.
H made chili late last night, put it in containers to let it cool down, and then forgot to put it in the fridge. So it sat out all night until I found it at 6 this morning.

Would you still eat it?
does it have meat in it? If its a bean based one I wouldnt worry. but if it has meat I might not.

Update: because I'm sure you all care- we did it last night. Who knows how long it will be until it happens again.
kellybenelly83, lazyreader, It does have meat in it, beef and pork. And it was in containers but not sealed. I already couldn't eat it last night because my stomach was just not having it. I told him I might try it yet, but only if he boils the shit out of it first.

We have the Motorola MBP36 and have really liked it (there is a newer mod out now). It has great picture and sound.
I recently came across the Infant Optics DXR-8 and it has great reviews. If I needed a new system, I'd probably go with that one.

OMG, why when I come back from vacation am I constantly surprised at how useless some people are? I cant understand where they get their logic, I really cant. I have spent most of my morning trying to do 1 thing with constant interruptions only to find out like 4 people made mistakes and I cant do it until they are fixed. REALLY?

Just another random thought...I've been lurking on TB on the Feb 16 board (I know, I know). It is crazy how much less knowledgable people are over there. And they have 15 of the same thread, every thread. Sometimes I want to jump in and tell them that no- they cannot feel their baby at 8 weeks, but so far I've avoided the temptation as I really don't want to contribute to such a crappy forum. Also, the bump employees start discussions, just to create conversation. So odd. Anyway, happy to be here!
Also guilty.
Moreso when this board was still pretty dead at the beginning, but there is some hilarious drama to be found there. They've already discovered that a healthy level of snark is worthy of warning by the Bump Gods, and it just makes me laugh.
While I'm sad we don't have a bit more of an active board here, I'll take all of you fine ladies over that place any day!
