In this week's edition of Bloat vs. Akraus, I'm sorry to report that bloat has taken the lead. Akraus admitted defeat today with the purchase of a belly band. Akraus is coping with her epic defeat by taking comfort in the fact that there is no longer a button imprint on her belly.
Round II will feature Akraus vs. Pizza Cravings. Bets on behalf of the underdog can be paid via PayPal to thatsnotababyitsgas@gmail.com.

I'm ashamed to admit how much pizza I've eaten since my BFP...at least I get veggies on mine...that makes it better, right?
eyelashedviper mine wasn't that bad. Only in the shop for a day and a half and I was able to drive it until my appt. I don't think the accident should do too much to the resale value. As long as it doesn't cost over a certain dollar amount I don't think you have to claim it. I could be wrong though. I hope it's fixed and back to you soon!
Ooh, I will have to look into that. Thanks! I just assumed that it would be apart of the service record. It arrived at the body shop today so that's progress.
I've been washing China all morning for a tea party bridal shower this weekend. I'm trying to do things in small bursts to not wear myself out.
On a hilarious note. My dh has a lost and found at his work and I asked him if he still had this pilot hat that's been there for years. (We need funny hats for a photo booth at the shower) his response? A photo of him wearing only the hat, and a smile..... Thank god he can lock his door at work!
This is hilarious. Can you keep it after the party? (wink, wink)
When I was pregnant with DD, pizza was one of my aversions. I remember sitting on the couch, trying to take a few bites, and my husband walked in from school, and I just broke down in tears because I couldn't even eat pizza. It was so miserable.

All I ate with DS was pizza. We literally had pizza probably 3-4 times a week.
I'm so happy with the news about marriage equality today. I'm super emotional about it. So glad that our kids will be able to grow up in a time when it's not even a second thought.
ahhh super excited right now and I want cake to celebrate. I wasn't very happy when I got my BFP, one of the many reasons being I would have to get a new doctor right away. As of last year mine was out of network because his network and my insurance couldn't come to an agreement. As of last night that network and my insurance signed a new deal which mean I can have my doctor back. I'm still seeing the new doc tonight for dating ultra sound and first appointment business but then it's strait back to my old doctor next month for a 12ish week appointment. As the days pass I'm getting over the shock stage and into acceptance stage with this new bug growing in me. With all the worries from what happened last year with my last pregnancy being able to go back to my doctor adds a layer of comfort to this pregnancy. If shit hits the fan again at 32 week I know me and little one are in excellent hands. wow that was a long ramble, sorry.

I may or may not have cried a little at my desk when I first heard the news. I can't contain my happiness for so many of my best friends and our future generations!!! Love prevails!!!

I had to check 5 different new sites to make sure what I was seeing was real. Words can not express the happiness not just for the people in my life but everyone else.
I'm right there with everyone this morning... My Facebook feed was full of happiness and joy and love and unity and I am so proud. Aaaaand now I'm crying again.
You guise...I ate at a Tom and Chee for the first time today and omg it was glorious. I got a Brie on pumpernickel grilled cheese. Soooo good. Still forgot to try it with ketchup.
I had a bikini wax yesterday. That was...a mistake. OUCH. I've heard they can be more painful during pregnancy. Yup. Next time i'm slapping on a pair of boy shorts with my swimsuit and calling it a day.

Okay guys, I can't decide if my hormones are making me extra sensitive or if I have a legitimate reason to be sad.
I haven't seen my best friend since the day I told her I was pregnant (about 3 weeks ago). She was traveling for work, and I've been super tired and yucky, so I tried not to make much of it. I sent her a text today thinking we'd go grab some dinner, and I got a one line text message back from her 6 hours later saying she already had plans for drinks with someone else. Other than that, I haven't heard much from her at all since the day I got my BFP.
Is she avoiding me?? Pregnancy isn't contagious...I'm not going to infect her with a baby. I know she's in a totally different place in her life than I am right now, but I really, REALLY hope I'm not going to lose my friend just because I'm having a baby.

Tell me it's the crazy...
Did you guys hang out regularly before? Maybe call her and ask her if everything is alright. Does she have a history of loss?

We try to see each other once a week or so, but sometimes its hard with work schedules and stuff. She had an abortion when we were in college. It's a subject we don't bring up much because she asked me to take her and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. She knows we have a difference of opinions on the issues and we respectfully agree to disagree. But she knew we were TTC, and she has always been supportive of talking about it with me.
I just have this crazy thought in the back of my mind like "Well I can't drink wine with her anymore and she probably thinks I'm only going to talk about baby stuff so she's going to start avoiding me."

Or I have to wonder if she and her husband (if she has one) have been TTC for a while and she is sad she's not pregnant with you? But that might be me projecting, because I dealt with that exact issue like 3 times last year.

She's single, not currently dating anyone. Like I said, we're in very different places in our lives. I hope I'm just overreacting. I just don't want my life to change so much that I lose all my friends.
I'm going to get my hair done. I almost canceled because of the nausea but I figured it will be nice to feel pretty even when I feel like shit lol
When I mentioned to my stylist that I was pregnant and not feeling great I got the best head massage of my life. Maybe if you tell yours she can add a little something special too.

I was thinking that I needed to wait until after 1st Tri before I could go. Is this a myth? Because I am wayyy overdue for some highlights.

Barely any dye gets absorbed into the skin and if it does only a tiny amount of that would make it to the baby. If you're in a well ventilated area you are perfectly fine.
My BIL and SIL just came over with their two boys. They're pregnant. February 2016. A week before me.
First thought (after the "Omg, congrats!"): What if something happens? Then one of us will have to watch the other be successful.
Second thought, because H brought it up: There goes our thunder. Every time. We move into a rental house, they build a huge new house. We buy a car, they get a newer car. I know it's not a competition, and I am well aware of how selfish this makes me. This is our first, their third. It's not like either of us planned for it to happen this way. I guess I'm just a bit...disappointed? Oh well. I'll get over it.
*I am totally and completely happy for them, genuinely!*
Omg league2b3, I can commiserate. BIL's wife is pregnant too, also due in Feb. Both of us are having our third. Her first was born a couple of weeks after I had my second miscarriage. We were both pregnant with our second babies at the same time, had due dates 6 days apart. I lost that baby, she had hers. It's just such a slap in the face, though nobody's fault, but it still hurts. I'm so worried that I'll lose this one and history will repeat itself.

So sorry you're in a very similar situation, EatsRitz, but at least that means my feelings are normal? FX for a healthy 9 months for us both! It's such a weird emotional place to be.

I felt like a bitch at first too. They asked if we wanted to do some cutesy announcement for the ILs and I was just like, "ummmNOPE."

This actually has happened to me already ***trigger warning***
My best friend in town was planning on actively TTC this summer. She knows all about my IF. When I told her I was KU she was so happy and said she was pregnant too! It was a lucky accident. We were due within like 2 days of each other. Unfortunately, she had a CP just 3 days after that. It was really sad because then I felt guilty and felt like she'd be upset seeing me be pregnant when she should be. But, after a week to cope she's been super supportive. They're planning to TTC this summer, so hopefully it'll work out that we're still KU together (we've been planning to get KU together since 2013, we both got married that year and planned on TTC in 2015).

So I have three huge rosemary bushes interplanted with two big lavender bushes in my backyard. A couple of weeks ago, my dog went nosing through the rosemary and two bunnies jumped out and he chased them all over the yard (thankfully they were quicker, I was not ready for rabbit cleanup). But now every time he goes outside, he goes nosing through the rosemary bushes looking for more bunnies.
So basically, my dog always smells like rosemary and/or lavender now. I love it.
