Anyone else have a kid with Halloween hangover today? This was literally me this morning:

Eames I’m leveraging that candy as bribery. Until I eat it all.

Eames I’m leveraging that candy as bribery. Until I eat it all. I saw something on facebook, like what kind of halloween mom are you: Do you A) not allow candy except a piece or two, B) allow them to go crazy on the 31st, then take it all away to donate, C) allow them one piece a day until Dec or whenever, while simultaneously also eating it when they aren't looking. I was like, C. I'm definitely C.

On another note, I got a message from my OB office that the scan on the 22nd showed a low-lying placenta and they want me on pelvic rest for now. I'm a little annoyed that it took over a week to get this information. Am I being unreasonable?

We were definitely worn out this morning, we all slept in late. I'm a mix, you can eat as much candy as you can fit on special holidays and then maybe a piece a day after meals, but I'm really going to eat most of it. I say as I'm sitting here eating lots of it 😂 Eames I would definitely be annoyed. It's not like they didn't know that the day OF the scan...

My husband, the fabulous man that he is, took it upon himself to go out and buy a few bags of half priced candy today. But he didn't get ANY Snickers OR Milky Ways OR Twix.
Bro.

Eames, not unreasonable in the slightest. I'd be angry.

Welp, I was just googling pelvic rest at work, and a 26 year old guy came up behind my desk.

DD ate two lollipops and an unknown amount of marshmallows when we made smores (I didn't realize she was walking around with the bag). DH and I have been eating out of it today and she ate a piece after dinner. She didn't have a ton so it won't last too many days. I think when she's older we will do a turn in thing.

Eames Sorry about the placenta. I'd be mad it took that long and I'd say something.

I agree that your office should have contacted you sooner Eames. I hope your placenta moves up as you get further along and that you can get off pelvic rest soon. No good lemondrop! Not getting one of those would be ok, but all 3 😳. You should go get some tomorrow!

He got M&Ms, a mixed bag of mini Reese’s, Rolos and Hershey’s Kisses, and a bag of some Hershey’s pretzel/ peanut/ caramel creme bar nonsense.
I can appreciate that he anticipated my chocolate craving needs, and I do love Reese’s, but I was woefully underwhelmed by his selection.

That’s not a terrible selection, but some Reese’s, Twix, and Snickers would make it complete!

On the candy topic...has anyone tried Hershey Gold? Is it chocolate or caramel or something else? Is it good?

Theoretically I should like them since its basically all the things I love, but IMO, the caramel creme has a weird texture.

I have been awake for far too long today but I'm currently sitting up to try and push awake the feeling of getting sick. Ughhh. I shouldn't have to be dealing with this at 20 weeks! Blargh.

Sounds a bit strange with caramel. That sucks that the texture is weird.

Just because you can make chocolate shapes with it (kisses, bar, etc) does not make it chocolate!

Like afterwards, it felt like it was all over my mouth and I needed to immediately brush my teeth. My husband apparently loves them though, so they’re allllll his lol

I would definitely eat all that white chocolate thing, lol. 'Bout to go raid the halloween candy.
We had fall family pics today, and I can't wait to see them! I made a sign that said "We're expecting..." and then "TWINS!" on the back when we flipped it over. Once we get the pics back in a week or so, I'll probably finally post on Facebook. The anatomy scan milestone will be done by then, too.

A was up at her regular weekday time today, but she slept in til 7/7:15 yesterday on H's day to get up with her. H was kind enough to pass his head cold on to me. Blah. But then A napped from 11:30-2:50 today, and I was able to nap too for part of that time.
