This thread: "Everytime I drink water I throw up. I know I have to drink it and I've always drank water before with no problem but now that I'm pregnant even the thought of water makes me want to puke. I've tried mixing different flavored packets with it and it still makes me extremely nauseous...what the heck am I supposed to do to keep water down..??!! Only other thing I have a problem eating/drinking is any form of potatoe."

Sorry, not sorry, that does not look appetizing to me. I like french fries.
French fries are fantastic as well.
At our cafeteria they often do a baked potato bar as the meal choice. I flip out every time because, imo, no matter how much stuff you put on a potato, it is still a side dish.
notelsie I took your poll and while I was over there I noted that another 12-weeker is showing--squee! That hasn't gotten the gratification of many clicks yet, but nearly 900 have clicked on the most recent loss post, yet ONLY FORTY-FIVE have posted support...and WE are the mean, insensitive girls?!
This makes me so fucking irate! There are so many thing wrong with the Dump now, but this is truly the biggest shame. The real support is gone, it's a superficial bullshitery now. I don't even go there anymore, but I posted condolences on that thread... why? Because I'm a fucking human. What is wrong with those twatwaffles!? Ugh.
Anybody else finding I harder to not say "just shut up" when reading these posts. Baby center is 10,000,000 times worse, and I'm losing faith in humanity. I just deleted it, because damn.

I have to disagree. I've made a full meal out of potatoes more times than I should probably willingly admit. But to my credit, potatoes are one of the few things I have no trouble keeping down right now, so I've had little choice.
Edit: random words popped up in my post that weren't supposed to be there.

I tried BC a while back. I thought "surely it's not as bad as they say". I. was. wrong. There are like 1,001 "guess the sex" posts and when people don't reply the OP always goes back and bumps the post. Then when still no one says anything, (because no one gives a shit) they're all like "someone take a guess" Please guess" "TAKE A GUESS".
The worst is yet to come. I dread the eventual question about nursing in public or (even worse) vaccination for which there is no overwhelming common sense consensus coming from the regs, sufficient to shut that bullshit "debate" right down.

oh man, I stay out of the vaccine 'debates' you can't reason with people who take advice from celebrities like jenny McCarthy and refuse to listen to science.

It's true that you can't argue with crazy, but I've found that crazy tends to multiply if it has any foothold whatsoever. You'll never "win" the crazies to your side of the debate - that's true - but you can at least convince the lurkers that those folks are crazy. And even crazy people (eventually) hit a brick wall and go home to someone who will listen.
I lurked on babycenter a while during my last pregnancy ::ugh:: and those "debates" got way, way out of hand - the common-sense contingency just wasn't strong or numerous enough and crazy had a bit of a foothold and multiplied. That didn't happen as often on our last Bump BMB and wouldn't have happened very often on our board before the exodus.

So I did what was probably my final lurk today. So. effing. boring over there. I noticed that there's just one lady (a WK if my memory is correct) starting all the daily threads, and in between that it's just repetition, dear diary, and MUD. zzzzz...
One of the reasons I switched midwives was because my last one is against vaccinations. She has 4 kids and 3 have never had a vaccine. I couldn't respect her after that.

Not to mention being around her and the possibility of her infecting your newborn

Vaccines, NIP, and circumcision. Pick your side and be prepared to defend it hard because a lot of people are extremely ignorant as to what is more important to be concerned about or not.
There were some pretty serious circumcision debates though.
I feel like NIP isn't a deal anymore, right? Like it shouldn't be a big deal.
Unbelievably - there are still some states where it is not protected. i.e. in Virginia a private business can ask you to leave (any government building/property cannot - during the current legislative session they will be voting on extending this protection to all places)
Ohhhh, wow. I never would have guessed that was a big issue. I see it relatively often in CA, so it's only been a 'thing' that I've seen online. Thanks lindy!

This might be the immature person in me, but I find it hilarious that Nursing In Public is shortened down to NIP. I mean really? How can you not at least smirk at that one.

Haha, it's perfect! Definitely won't be forgetting what that one means, lol.
People need to get over nip. seriously shit heads get with the times. When a baby needs to eat a mother is going to feed them wherever they are. Drives me BSC that people make a big deal out of this.
Both my sisters had boys, and they had the great circumcision debate. My older sister choose not too and my younger sister choose to do...And let me throw this out there, the younger sister is a doctor, she has stated that there is no medical advantage by doing it or not doing it. Nor disadvantage. It's completely a preference! That being said, if this one's a boy, I'm not sure what side of the fence I stand on.
Vaccines..here we are again. They're like NIKE. Just Do It.

Im very against circumcisions. Ive heard SO many horror stories about excessive bleeding and they lose sensitivity leading to having trouble having sex in the future blah blah blah.... I honestly dont see the point if theres no advantages. Other than cosmetics, of course.
Look at me, already starting. Ignore me if you must.
