Anybody have Jean shorts they want to recommend? I love the pair I have but they are approximately 5 years old and a hole just formed. Not too long, but not too short..
I'm running on only 4 hours of sleep per night for the past few nights so maybe I'm feeling sensitive, but I hope there are other reasons you think she's an incredible dumbass besides having 2u1. I originally wanted 2u1 or close to it and I don't think I'm an incredible dumbass as a result.
I meant that she doesn't have a decent job or the ability to support herself. Though, it's really not good for your body to have them so close together.
This is my biggest concern. A good friend of mine had her first two 11 months apart. I think they were supposed to be due the same month (or maybe the month after) but the 2nd was born early. They got pregnant with their third a year and a half later. This one was born early with some physical challenges. She fully acknowledges that having them so close together might have contributed to the complications with her 2nd and 3rd pregnancies.
My milk came in last night. Holy mother of lord are they painful! I had forgotten how bad the engorgement was. I'm sitting here pumping off 5 oz and it doesn't feel like I've made a difference at all.
Ive started telling the lotion and perfume people that i get allergic reactions. It is true. I have sensative skin.
Or i just say no thank you and keep walking.
I do that with the kiosk pushers, luckily they don't really have any here.
The dead sea lotion people are the worst at our mall. My brother got stopped by one of them and kept saying no thank you, but they just going on so he took off running away from them and screaming. It was hilarious.
I was just in a meeting with someone who was extolling the virtues of competitive yoga. How stereotypically DC is it to make something like yoga a competitive sport?
HA! Yes! Absolutely. I totally had to stop doing yoga in DC when we lived there. I had sciatica and I needed to convert a lot of poses to accommodate it, and my competitive spirit couldn't handle it. I literally would leave class thinking about how my tree pose was better than anyone else's. DC man, it is just so full of short, middle children with something to prove. My race times there for any legal-oriented runs (Lawyers have a heart, etc.) would have gotten me first place in any other city, and there I was lucky to break into the top ten for my category. The competitive spirit there is fierce.

I think that was my rash lotion.
I gave in and bought some for my mom and me one Christmas-the lady that did the sale was new I think. She sold me 2 for the price of 1 and gave me a big hug after I bought them. They aren't bad, just super overpriced and very pushy when they try to sell them.

pitchslap You are brilliant. I never thought of having DS help motivate DD for the potty. But he won't do it for candy. Nope. Cash. Sweet sweet cash money.

I'm not the best sample. If one in 1,000 Is allergic to a skin care product it is me. Yay!
anustart1 The same dude also said "I have 32k steps already and I haven't even gone for my long run yet!" I was cracking up the entire time. To his credit, he knew he was being ridiculous.
I am SO GLAD I didn't have a fitbit or a smartphone with a running app when I lived there! I would have had a nervous breakdown! I ran the Marine Corp marathon and this very, very bossy female attorney (clitigator!) insisted I do two of my long training runs with her. It was super weird, I felt like I should have been billing for it since it was a direct order from a partner I worked under. So come race day, I run the race, for like, myself. The joy of running. The accomplishment. When I get home that night I looked up the other runners who I knew and I saw she finished around the same time as me. I was genuinely like, "cool." The next morning I hobbled to her office and was all cheerful and said, "nice job on the race! you had a great time." She glared at me and said, "oh, so you looked me up?" Like I was a weirdo. I felt awkward for a minute and then she literally JUMPED up and said "I BEAT YOU BY 4 MINUTES!!!! HAHAHA!!!!" doing the "nah nah nah nah nah" fingers at me the whole time. She got like IN my FACE. And how weird is it that she tried to act like me looking her up was crazy when she CLEARLY did the same thing just to rub it in my face that she "won." Because we were clearly in direct competition. I think it was that day I decided I could not follow through with law school.

Likewise. Bare Minerals gave me hives. You should have seen the look on the sales lady's face. "This never happens!!" Yeah, thanks.

Well there goes my productivity for the day.
Theres a game on there my brother and sister played when we were younger called Captain Novolin-its a game about diabetes-its on there and it cracks me up playing it now and actually understanding whats going on in the game vs having the innocent mind of being younger and not knowing. Between that and the Mario games, Im not getting anything done.
Oh and on the topic of how far to space your kiddos.... well... We failed at that one! I was like 5 months pregnant at B's 1st birthday. Whoops. And honestly, everything turned out fine for us. N was born on her due date and completely healthy, and I am feeling great. That being said, as much as I joke about 3u3 - that is not really going to happen.
I had no idea about the guideline - but I don;t know if it would have changed anything had I had known. Maybe we would have waited a little?

megaroo64 I guess I'd hope that if doctors really felt that it would influence their patients' health, they'd say something, you know? Everybody and their situation is so different.
The practice where I delivered is at a busy teaching hospital in an urban setting. It primarily serves families living in poverty (like, the nurses kept commenting on how impressed they were that DH and I had things like a car seat, a nursery, both of us there, etc.) so I know they have multiple reasons for telling women to wait, wait, wait.

I went to law school here. I'm still traumatized.
My law school had a semi-secret group of female students called the pink slipper club. You might be invited to join if you were pretty, very popular or well connected. I wasn't. Oh, Dallas.
I was also asked at orientation why I was wearing my shower shoes (flip flops).

Thinking back, the pink slipper club sounds like a strip club. Hah!
I've never heard clitigator before but that's probably a positive.
I feel like I would have never heard it if I wasn't working within a "big law" practice in the middle of DC. But one I heard it I was like, "that's the exact word I've been looking for." Another paralegal got a binder thrown at her head because it wasn't collated properly.
thatblondie So many hugs! I hate that all the crap keeps flying your way. You are an awesome mother and woman and don't deserve any of this. We're here for you.
everydayimshuffling I hope K and O are starting to feel better and that you get a chance to snooze.
Feel better vibes to all the other sick littles too.
cl8badb I hope you got some answers so you can plan your way ahead. Hugs!
nachellebeck Oh geez your DH! I hope he gets his head out of his butt and realizes how his actions (or lack thereof) will affect other people.
Sorry for everything I missed. Headed to the doctor this afternoon, so hopefully everything is good and I can get back to work tomorrow.
I need sticker removal help. B had his two year check up and they gave him a sticker... That the nurse put on his arm. Well- then we went to the splash pad and the sticker kinda split in the process and is now majorly stuck to his arm. It's a Thomas sticker- so B is totally fine with it staying there for eternity... But it should probably come off. Advice?

If it's on his skin, maybe eye makeup remover or coconut oil with a washcloth? That's how I get those temporary tattoos off the kids.
If it's on his shirt, I have no idea but whatever you do, DO NOT let that shirt go into the dryer or it will be stuck for all of eternity. The pretty part washes away and just the sticky part remains.
I've done the baby oil or coconut oil to remove the last remains of a sticker.
