AW Alert!!! I bought the cuuuuuutest fabric to make some (very) simple, large receiving blankets today. Actually, DS grabbed for the blue one right as I spotted the orange one. Great minds think alike and the apple never rots far from the tree and all that
Just had mozzarella sticks and Totino pizza rolls for dinner. Had my 24 week apppintment and glucose test this am. Only up 3lbs, yes I am bragging considering Dr only wants me to gain 10lbs for my WHOLE PREGNANCY. So total I am up 5lbs...I can do this, I can do this.
But for today I just had to celebrate and hope I passed my 1 hr GTT.
I just went outside to check the mail in my pajamas, no bra, wearing DH's shoes, all because I remembered my nail polish was delivered today. Then I counted my nail polish. I have 126.
That's freaking awesome. 126 is a lot! I thought I was bad with not having any space left on my organizer that holds 50. Now I'm super jealous of your 126!
This! I just remembered I was gonna ask on "stupid question sunday" and forgot!
I wonder if there is an actual "rule" about this
Maybe someone could HELP US! I can't wait to buy a tiny little life jacket!
My nephew was born in January and we took him out on out boat that summer so he was probably 7ish months? We have a baby life jacket already from him. I think I might give it a try if the weather is still nice enough in October and if there's a nice calm day on the bay.
If you can make it through a few days, I suggest ditching the Afrin. It can actually make it worse than you were before when you discontinue the use. If I ever use it, I have to start using it in one nostril only to wean myself off of it. Afrin is awesome but the devil at the same time. Pharmacists will tell you to run far far away from it.
Yikes. Thanks for the advice! I'll be whiny and annoyed without the Afrin. Today's my first day without it and I'm "dying" ... I read that it was addicting... I'm definitely addicted to a nose that I can breath out of.
Have you tried Zyrtec-D? This is the only OTC drug that works for my congestion. Afrin couldn't even help me out as well as the Zyrtec does. Prescription wise I go with Xyzal but I don't have an allergist here since we moved. That shit is amazing!

alwayslastzz If what you are using isn't working, a nasal steroid might help. They work differently than Afrin or other nasal decongestants and can be used for longer. They are safe to use when pregnant because they never enter the bloodstream. I just had a discussion about this with my allergist this morning. I've been using OTC Nasacort at night.
A push present? I feel like I live under a rock for never hearing about this but then I googled the term and found out it's an actual thing. Correct me if I'm wrong here but I thought the baby was the present.

I had never heard of it until TB but apparently it's a thing. I was mostly referring to the DH/ DD / DS thing. Guilty! Well, and fur baby.

alwayslastzz I hope it works for you. Nasal steroids need a few days to start working. I think the instructions might say something about starting with 2 sprays in each nostril and then working down to 1 spray to help offset this, but double check what it says.
Yeah but pears are gross! They remind me of sandpaper. Blech
I like canned pears. Does that count? I can never get fresh ones the right ripeness.
Try eating them when just the neck part feels ripe. If you wait for the whole thing to feel ripe, then it's overripe. I could never get them right until I learned this trick.
I've only worked 1.5 days since last Friday & I'm already not wanting to go tomorrow...I'm ridiculous.
Because the gym is closed or not offering classes around the holidays, I barely taught anything for 2 weeks and it was pretty torturous getting back to my regular schedule.

I go to work and miss more action on this thread and UOs than has happened for a while! I'm super appreciative of the breast pump insurance website from earlier this thread. And my random- it was mentioned earlier this week how much it sucks to discover your window is frozen shut at a drive-thru. This happened to me today- and my dog got very confused as to why I had to keep opening the door to talk, etc.
What kind of sorcery do you use if the answer is yes. I haven't poo'd daily in ages!
Don't hate me, but some days I poop more than once! I don't understand it myself!! I notice I poop better when eating a lot of fruit. In first tri, I had a period of not pooping for 3 days and it will pure hell so def T&P to your bowels!!

DH fractured his arm yesterday by slipping on ice... I feel sorry for him but he's acting like his dying! And to make it harder on himself, he's decided he doesn't like the way Vicodin or any other pain med makes him feel so he's stopped taking it.
Oh no!!! We just ran out of toilet paper and don't even have tissues to substitute!! How could this happen?! Thankfully I saved a few chipotle napkins from lunch, but ermigerd!!!
I kinda love this. I use all of those family terms for no reason other than that's the lingo here....it's just s part of my vernacular now, but it still sounds silly when I think about it.
And plus also....don't get me started on the whole push present thing. I feel like that's right up there on the hotly debatable things list with vaccines and circumcision these days. I love a new handbag as much as the next girl, but damn.
Total non-sequitur warning: alwayslastzz, I vote your potato bug vs. roly-poly to be the winner for truly most random comment in this thread. Well done!
(Hope that nose of yours cuts you some slack soon...not being able to breathe or sleep is the worst and both together truly sucks)
