I am getting nervous for Foam Fest tomorrow with my SIL and BIL. My husband registered last night so that he can walk with me, help me over the ostacles and wait for me when I have to go around any ostacles I don't want to do. This makes me feel a bit better. But I'm still nervous since this is the first ostacle course I've ever done.
mikaela20, I've done a few and they are always super fun. trust your gut. If you don't feel comfortable with one, skip it. grab your husbands hand for stability, the foam can definitely make things slick at times.
Fearsy, you've had some very early mornings this week! Enjoy your lunch out!
We're not doing much today. May head to the park. E loves people watching from the swings and I'm hoping some fresh air will help the ever-present nausea.

The metro had a weird smell on my ride in today. DH assures me it did not, so must be just me. I feel better than I did yesterday - tired, but bloat is a little reduced and no cramps.
moutonrouge I definitely share your heightened sense of smell!
For a little while I thought DH smelled (we were sitting next to each other). But then when we split up and I got on the second line I take to work, it smelled too. I'm laughing about it now.
My friend just sent out a text asking if we think it's tacky for she and her H to have an anniversary party for themselves and to register for gifts since what they registered for when they got married isn't practical now.

He will like to know that you (briefly) thought he smelled like dirty metro this morning. Lol!!

Yes. Very much so. ^ my response.
I don't even understand why they thought for a second this was ok. Why cant they buy their own crap now?

DH and I are meeting with a mortgage person later this morning... we're buying our first house! After the appointment I'm meeting up with one of my best friends and I'm debating telling her that I'm KU. We haven't told anyone yet, and dh told his friend before anyone else last time, so now it's my turn, right?

I couldn't believe she actually sent out the text. I have never thought about doing something like that, but if I did, I hope I'd realize it's awful before I ask 4 other people.
... And some of my friends are saying, "I know ____ did that a year ago. It made it easier for people to know what to get her for her bday and Christmas." TF?!

Do adults regularly get other non-related adults presents now? Is this a thing?

I might get friends some wine or a gift certificate for a nice restaurant for their anniversary, but with the exclusion of 2 very close friends, I haven't done birthday/xmas gifts for friends in a long time.

One of my coworkers has been seeing this guy for a few weeks. Apparently he hasn't texted her back in 2 days. My other single coworkers are telling her to send him these terrible passive aggressive texts. I'm not sure if I am too nice and would be eaten alive if I were dating now, or if they're all wrong.

moutonrouge to what end, with the passive-aggressive texts? That just makes no sense. If he's ghosting he already has no fucks to give, and if he's not and just ... I don't know, drowned his phone or something, then she's being weirdly bitchy.
If she wants to tell him off and move on, great, but that's just aggressive-aggressive.

So many questions. How long have they been married that they think this is necessary?
And there is a difference between registering and creating a wish list (which to me is what the other friend's list sounded like). If you are registering, that would (to me) imply that they expect the gifts on one certain day. I've had my wish list forever. I keep it up to date and have shared it with my mom, brother, and in-laws at their specific request. Sometimes I buy stuff off it. Some occasions I get nothing from it.
Anyone else's face look like a bunch of landmines have exploded? My jaw line is actually painful. I sleep with my hands up by my face and I couldn't get comfy.
Where is my pregancy glow?
I'm waiting for the back acne. I got it bad w DS. Currently I have a pimple on my ass.

Fellow "morning" sickness ladies: the brochure my OB's office gave me suggested 25mg of vitamin b6 up to 3 times a day. I went to three different stores with no success before going to the Vita.min Shoppe and getting them. So far (knock on wood) they are allowing me to function better than before. Propel is also full of b vitamins, and works, but not as long as the b6 is. Hope this works for someone else too!

Tacky, regardless.
They've been married for 8 years (head:desk)
I agree on the wish list being different from a registry. Though I don't have one, I could see where it would be useful for future purchases for myself.
Do adults regularly get other non-related adults presents now? Is this a thing?
If it's a thing, then no thank you. I enjoy picking out and buying my own shit. Presents make me feel awkward, even when they're from family.
So much this. If I want it, I'll buy it. Hate having to give family some ideas for holiday gifts. I have been trying to convince them for years that everyone should just buy gifts for the nieces/nephews/grandkids
