Good thing I got my taxes done because now I have to figure out all the stuff with my Dad's estate. Blerg. Luckily, I have some time and don't need to REALLY stress about it.

peachsmama Be careful! Surprise ice is never fun! nam2013 Glad your grandma is doing good. Sorry about the kids, I hope they are better soon! cagoldi How is your grandma? Any updates? Not much else to report. I guess they have a Urologist visiting her in the next day or two so they can evaluate her bladder function. It's possible they will need to go in for another surgery.

Since C didn't go to sleep until 10 because DH failed to give him melatonin, he was a jerk this morning. Even though he woke on his own he said he was too tired to go to school. I actually bribed him with Oreos. Not my proudest parenting moment but we were running really late. He stayed dry though for the 2nd night !

It was a full week after MH had it when I got it. The dr said it was the “perfect incubation period “ So I'm still in the danger zone😑. I'm pretending I have an immune system of steel. I had swine flu during that out real, i feel like I've paid my flu dues. (I'm aware that's not how it works) How bad was that? I was working in the office and waiting tables at that time. It's truly a miracle I never got it.

I would just ask for it. I know some people would prefer to wait it out and let it happen naturally, which can take a lot of time in some cases. Others prefer the D&C because they just want it all to be over and it's the "easiest route" so to speak. I did not want a D&C because I couldn't afford it at those times and, like I said, my OB would rather use those as a last resort. (I'm sure if I requested the D&C, she would have done it though.) I completely agree with minimal contact/explanations from doctors being the norm though. It really sucks and it's very isolating. I had two completely different experiences with the pills and I'm happy to chat with you in a PM about it, if you'd like. Ygpm 😏 So do you.

It may be cabin fever for your crew, but the weather isn't bad here. I think M is just being an asshole. I posted too soon! I see that the terror children is a trend across the board. Must be something going on in the planets for Scorpios I think the fact that they're Scorpios is probably reason enough.

M was late Nov so she's technically a Sagittarius....just like her father. That means I get to blame all her bad behavior on him, right?

O is a terror too. Always snatching toys from Z and taunting her. He also yells in her face for no reason and tells her she’s a bad girl which makes her cry. It’s exhausting. But when he is alone he’s great. He just doesn’t seem to like his sister.

(I'm aware that's not how it works) How bad was that? I was working in the office and waiting tables at that time. It's truly a miracle I never got it. I ran the NYC marathon 2 days before I got it. So i went from peak physical fitness to flat on my back. It was pretty bad. My mom got it the day before me so I promptly went to her house and we quarantined there. It was it was misery for 48 hours and then just a nasty cough. The worst was the partner at my office emailing a high importance email that the team was exposed. They had maintenance sanitize our team room. I was mortified, but thankfully no one else got it.

Morning.
So I spent basically all night in the bathroom. I don't think it could still be the stomach flu since I was mostly okay for at least 24 hours?
I ate an orange yesterday morning and they've never given me problems before but I am allergic so maybe my body is finally rebelling.
It was not awesome.

IDK how helpful this is but I've used the pill for an elective abortion and I found that to be extremely unpleasant.
But I've never had a D&C so I have nothing to compare it to...

My big issue with a D&C is that it thins the uterine lining, which could possibly present problems for future pregnancies. And as much trouble as I've had, I don't think my nerves could take an additional complication.

Can I come with you vino lol I need a beach! Hope all you sick people feel better ASAP! I’ve been bigger on hand washing this year than ever before since we all were so sick last year. Trying to avoid it at all costs. We are about to finish up our kitchen Reno.... I’m nervous as we are painting the cabinets and don’t want to ruin them. Any advice is appreciated!

I told Cadence to wash her hands more. I was going to tell her why, but she cut me off and yelled, "GERMS!" I guess they have already been talking about it at school.

I'm trying to avoid the This Is Us thread because I haven't watched yet.
It's proving to be very difficult.

My thinking is that it doesn't matter what happens - whether it's a surprise or not - I'm going to be an emotional mess. But Hell No to staying up after the Superbowl to watch the next episode.

So I have 7 kidney stones, too many for shockwave therapy so I'm having them removed by laser on Tuesday. I'm nervous because it's under general anesthesia and I never had that before. Will also have stents in my kidneys for 5 days. I need to find a place for an EKG and research how the anesthesia and other meds could affect breastfeeding and make arrangements for the kids on Tuesday.
