Like, we were watching beauty and the beast and the whole time she was like "ohhh look belle is crying. She's sad. Beast is being mean. Look at that tea cup. It has a chip in it." Stfu woman.
She's also incredibly passive aggressive. I went to get my hair done today and when I got back she said "oh, they actually lighten your hair even though you're pregnant?"
My girls wake each other up and then start fighting for space (oh joy a glimpse at my future). H hates if I rest my arms on my belly. She kicks me up in my ribs to get me to move. Lots of people have gotten to feel her kick because she hates any pressure on her! And E loves to press as hard as she can against my belly button. Which is a really strange feeling. I love it tho.
Also my belly button is like 2 seconds way from becoming a permanent outtie 😐
Samesies. Right baby is actually starting to inflict pain and left baby had quiet days if she turns inward but they both tend to wake each other up.
Question for you ladies: do any of you have dogs who eat poop and roll in gross things? My dog recently did this (no visibly poop on her or smell) and now I've convinced myself she somehow got toxoplasmosis eggs on her and we are all infected. Can someone be a rational person about this? I can't be rational this pregnancy. Not at all.
ETA: I'm assuming it's cat poop. We have a few outdoor cats in the neighborhood that I have seen out and about the last couple of years.
My male dog eats poop and they both roll in whatever they find. It has never even crossed my mind to worry about this, and it shouldn't cross yours either I know that's easier said than done (damn PGaL brain), but I promise you that she has not infected you with anything. I am 100% sure.
I use the cat poop thing because I like that H does the litter boxes, but single mothers with cats have to take care of this all the time. They don't all get sick, so I don't think it's that "easy."

Thank you. This is what I have needed to hear. I swear, I vacillate between being sad this pregnancy is almost over, to worrying about something so much that I can't wait to have them safely out of me!!
It's all a mindfuck, I get it! Glad to help I lost my mind after using the home doppler the first time and was convinced I had bruised the baby lol.

@wineandcupcakes my understanding is that cat poop is only contagious for a limited amount of time after the very first time they are infected with toxo, so for the vast majority of an outdoor cat's life it is not contagious to others. I'm not sure about rolling in poop but if your dog ate cat poop during the rare times that it was contagious and got infected, it takes 24 hours for her poop to become contagious, or at least that is true for cats.
I am still cleaning the litter box - my H offered but he is immunosuppressed so I didn't see the point in making him do it when the risks seemed pretty low, especially with taking extra precautions. I think that if my cats had been infected at some point in their lives, I have most likely been exposed to it already anyway, in which case there is no harm to the baby.

My dogs eat poop constantly. It's horrible. We have to go out and pick it up as soon as it comes out of someone butt or it becomes a snack. We've never had any issues but they eat their own poop so we know they don't have any parasites or anything. They also tend to find "good smelling" spots in the yard and start rolling around like fools. I'm sure you're probably fine. Go out and do a pass in the yard and pick up any poop you find to get rid of the temptation.
