End of the Week Randoms

[LizInFL]

@litera Pregnancy hormones are no joke! LOL at your dream. I mean, not really, but I can relate. I had one recently where I woke up SO ANGRY at poor DH. Can't even remember what is was about now, but I had a hard time calming down afterwards. I love that you were worried about custody, though, that is hilarious.

Now is when you need a glass of vino to settle your nerves. Oh wait...

@litera that dream sounds awful. I definitely had at least one when I was pregnant with DS that had me really mad at MH in real life the next day. I can't remember what it was now that he had "done" (nothing as serious as your asshole dream H haha) but I remember that pit in my stomach and also how confusing it was to realize it hadn't actually happened.

Just saying you aren't alone.

I posted over in the recall board. It is Natures Touch Organic Berry Cherry Blend (frozen berries) sold at Costco. Right now only Canada is effected. The link is over there (recalls) if you want to check it out.

Thanks!

@litera holy crap. That sounds completely awful!! I am so so sorry that you had to experience that. I am glad that your husband was kind and understanding though. Poor guy must have been so confused.

My husband (who is not pregnant) has dreams all the time that I have died some horrible death. And wakes up crying. Also, about 2 weeks into this pregnancy he woke up in the morning and asked me if I started my period last night. I was extremely confused and was just like noooo? To which he breathed a huge sigh of relief and teared up a bit. He had dreamt we had lost the baby. Poor boy was so upset

Of course now I am starting to worry one of the dreams where I die is going to come true :/

@litera - I had dreams like that all pregnancy last time! They suckkkk! I have had a few this time too, and I always wake up upset and asking DH to swear he won't leave me (usually in my dream, he's just saying he wants a divorce and won't talk or give any explanation).

[sophiegrace]

@litera these pregnancy dreams are no joke. Every single night I have crazy and such vivid dreams that always take a minute to get over when I wake up. Lol at your H still apologizing for it though.

danib when not using hepatitis fruit, how do you make your smoothies? Do you add protein powder? I used to drink them all the time, but now can't remember how I used to get it just perfect.

I'm at that shower. MY EYES ARE ROLLING OUT OF MY SKULL. Isn't it a little odd to be calling your baby "it" when you know the sex? And talking about how you think babies are hideous?

I'm going to need you to live blog this event for me.

That actually made me laugh out loud.
My basic is yogurt (usually greek), banana, berries, milk, and flax seeds (for fibre). Sometimes I add spinach and a splash of orange juice. I don't use protein powder, but you easily could add a scoop.

I'm glad! I worried that you might be offended given hep A isn't normally a joking matter. Grocery store is planned for tomorrow so I'm going to get some frozen fruits and big thing of yogurt, thanks!!

Oh and back tracking to last night...out of all the things everyone suggested for my lack of pooping issue nothing worked quite as well as a McNugget happy meal and chocolate milkshake. I'll eat McDonald's weekly if that's what it takes!!!

lol it's over now. But I'll hit the highlights...

Her favorite names for this girl are: Blake, Nick, Stevie, Quinn. She's very very very feminist so it strikes me as odd that in order to get a strong name she's going to boy's names.

She said "I've never held a fresh one before" referring to a newborn.

She was glad she got a K'Tan because she's informed my bro she did the first nine months so he has to do the next. Prolly a joke but with her personality it prickled me.

She plans to curse in front of her child. She laughs that her two year old will "probably be saying fuck a lot."

She sounds like a peach.

Huh. She sounds like a keeper.

Are they planning on getting married? Because I only imagine how much fun that entire process would be.

I haven't been around much lately and am trying to catch up on everything. 8mo DD was diagnosed with flu yesterday and my temp has been steadily rising all day. She's sleeping terribly, which I expected, but I've been up for about 34 hours now and feel so shitty, as does she.

Hope everyone is doing well.

No.

7 years ago she wouldn't marry him because her father couldn't afford her dream wedding.

Now she won't because she would lose her food stamps, etc. My bro makes a high salary. They use benefits to subsidize their lifestyle.

I'm embarrassed writing that.

I think we all have that family member.

[sophiegrace]

Oh no! Feel better amberlie. 34 hours? Oof. Hope you get some relief and sleep soon.

[amberlie]

thanks sophiegrace & starbuck27

She's sleeping on me now. I feel awful that she feels so bad, but am enjoying the extra cuddles. She hasn't fallen asleep on me without nursing and white noise in months. She's had 3 doses of Tamiflu and her fever has been down all day so I'm hoping she'll be feeling better soon. The worst part is the cough, which wakes her every time she falls asleep.

[cheshie6]

starbuck27, my BFF's cousin married a girl like that! Told him she hopes baby doesn't look like him!?! Baby didn't get dad's last name either. +1 on having a family member (SIL) like that. Just confused as to why she wants to keep food stamps if he makes good money!?!

[sophiegrace]

Oh I feel terrible that she's so sick amberlie, but what a cutie!!! Enjoy those cuddles.

Same here amberlie--I couldn't help but LT that pic bc she's so sweet! But I am sorry she's so sick and I hope it is short-lived!

[LizInFL]

amberlie so sorry to hear about DD. She is just precious though! Hopefully she's on the mend soon and you won't catch it.

starbuck27 that shower sounds...interesting.

I think I am ripping off the potty training bandaid today and we're going to get DS started. Pray for me.

[LizInFL]

starbuck27 he's not quite 2.5. He's pretty good about going when we sit him on the potty so I'm hoping it won't be an uphill fight! A lot of moms on my N13 BMB are in the throes of PT now so I'm trying to absorb all their wisdom How old is your DS?

You can do it LizInFL ! I was surprised how well M did. It sounds like B is already doing better than she did the first day of pt.

He is doing well so far, I'm proud of him. He's not yet telling me when he needs to go but he has gone every time I've sat him on the potty so hopefully he's getting the idea. 

I just came back to our bedroom to nap and DH is in charge. We'll see how things go now, haha.
