She introed on the come play thread! Get it together jemomma.

I feel like they still make Rice Krispie treat cereal.

Anyone else watch Jessica Jones on Netflix? We're staying up late to finish the next to last episode. I'm so tired.

Some googling just told me I can find it on Amazon! But in general, no you can't find it anywhere!!

carolyngrace - I consider myself agnostic. 15 years ago when I was figuring all my shit out, my admitting that I was gay is what initially the last straw and caused me to walk away from the church. But during that process it became more about me questioning and figuring out my beliefs and less about me being gay. I know of plenty of churches where people can be openly gay and accepted.

I am very facts driven and evidence based. I need tangible proof and full understanding of things before I can subscribe to something.

Well I'm glad to hear you know churches where it happens! I don't know of many. 

I recently became friends with a woman who grew up Christian and now is not (she's Atheist). Actually she's one of 5 siblings who all grew up Christian with missionary parents, and none of them believe anymore. She told me her story over New Years and it was really interesting... It made me question a lot of what I believe, and feel inspired to do some research for myself. I've always been very feelings-driven, so it's easy for me to believe in God. Christianity, specifically, has made me doubtful a few times, but I've never delved too far into my doubts. I think regardless I believe in a higher power. But I love my church and would be so sad and conflicted to change my faith...

Wow, tangent! Sorry. Been on my mind. This is TOTALLY not the thread for it LOL.

@poppyc8 , Red wine and find the weed. I will live vicariously through you. Now I'm thinking about all the food I would get the munchies for. Damn it. I really wish they still made blueberry muffin poptarts.

Foods I wish they still made:

S'mores cereal
Raisin filled Mini wheats
Rice crispy treats cereal

So... I guess just cereal I wish they still made!

Yum, I remember the Rice Krispies treats cereal! I was obsessed with Rice Krispies treats freshman year @binghamton. That was my "breakfast" back then, sigh. I'm sure the pot had something to do with it.

But holy paranoia. I don't blame you @jemomma. Last time I smoked I thought I drank a cup of water that was ashed in and gonna die and my husband was gay and in love with his BFF. Not for me. I'll stick with the wine.

Does anyone tell the truth at a Doctor's appointment when they ask if you drink and how often? I feel like I'd get the major side eye now.

hahaha I've been saying "2-3 drinks/week" for years now... That just seems like the right answer.

I tell them I drink socially, but all the nurses/doctors I've dealt with seem like they drink more than me. My OB told me she indulged in wine regularly during pregnant can, too.

Omg so does pot. We can toke one up and have this conversation at a later date. Lol

My mind was regularly blown when I would smoke and have deep conversations.

That is what I miss about smoking. And Pink Floyd never does sound as amazing as when you're high.

See I didn't even get a chance to edit. She drank all the wine when pregnant. I've had 2 glasses tonight ladies and since I've been dieting, my tolerance went down, yay.

I'm late! Kinda skimmed a bit to catch up.

I haven't smoked weed either. However on our honeymoon (we went to Europe), we did have a hash brownie in Amsterdam. I was so scared though of it getting me high for the first time ever in a foreign place that I didn't eat one myself I made mh share it with me lol so basically felt nothing.

I'm asking mh to see what we have for wine in the fridge when he comes up in a minute I'm too lazy to get off the couch I finally just sat down in


STUCK IN THE BOX! Ah!!



You know, for as much as I bitch about DH being lazy, and as much as i do more around the house, he ALWAYS gets me shit when I'm too lazy to get up. And he's not even bitchy about it like I would be.

I switched obs at the end of first tri, and at the first appointment they asked if I drank. I said socially, 1-2 times a week, thinking it was a no brainer I hadn't drank during pregnancy. She looked at me and was like, normally we don't recommend any alcohol during pregnancy... H asked me later if the baby ate my brain. I think that was just the beginning of mommy brain.

My 3 year old needs to GO TO SLEEP so I can have a second glass of wine!!!!

H and I used to each have our own bottle of wine and drink it straight from the bottle. All. The. Time. This is about 9 years ago when we were young and poor...

This is awesome.

You can buy a 3-pack of rice crispy cereal on Amazon for like $20!

He's also decided that he no longer wants to sit in the bath tub, he must stand. And he cannot sit still for his bed time bottle, he must kick his legs.

Lay him down? Or can he get up from that? My DB certainly can not

carolyngrace , how is Oscar doing with his helmet? I saw his pic in it, beyond adorable! The pedi that J goes too feels that he may need a helmet.

Overall, great. He doesn't really seem to notice it. He just fusses when we put it off/on, and gets a little annoyed when he tries to rub his eyes and hits the helmet! 

But I miss his fuzzy head... I hope it corrects sooner than later so he can be done. 

You should get J evaluated sooner than later. I wish we did Oscar sooner because his head grew so much the last couple of months, that if we had the helmet sooner he would already be done with it!!

Oh and thanks for saying he looks adorable because I def feel a little odd about it!

He can get up from that. He's also discovered rolling during diaper changes so it's like wrestling an alligator.

Oh yes, not looking forward to that! They get so squirmy!

Did the pedi evaluate him or did you take him to a specialist? Our pedi just wants to keep an eye on it.

Pedi recommended a specialist. Hopefully you won't end up needing one if they haven't recommended that yet! But I will say that getting into a specialist and then having the helmet made takes some time, so if they are leaning towards him needing one I would just do it anyway. Easier said than done though, since life is busy and it's just one more thing to do!

Oh I'm totally with you on the queen bed. I meant to chime in before. If I got a king bed DH and I would literally have to jump into it because there would be ZERO room in between the bed and our dressers. Oh, and we couldn't use our dressers.

I don't like milk in cereal. But I'll drink a glass of it in a heartbeat! J did wonders for my lactose intolerance.

Weird that's usually the opposite for people. When I was pg I drank like 5 glasses a day.

I've always wondered. Is rice pudding what it sounds like? Like I picture white rice in vanilla pudding. Or no?

I'm no rice pudding expert, but I think it's rice + milk +sugar. Not sure if vanilla is involved.

Been trying to drink my coffee without sugar all week. Still not used to it- it sucks. Give me all the organic cane sugar, it's healthy, right?

All the uos about circs have really made me regret having J circ'ed. Especially because they didn't take enough skin off and he will most likely have to be re-circ'ed. I think if we have another boy, I won't have it done.

Awe, that sucks!!

[periwinkledaydreams]

Yall. It got so quiet in here for like 5 minutes so I went and spiraled down that dumb ass parenting thread and then I came back and had missed all this chat!

[wegrowsheep]

Rice pudding is rice,,milk, sugar, vanilla, eggs, and cinnamon stick or cardamom, depending on the country of origin. I love both.
