LO and I are currently at Olive Garden. He was so good while I got my blood drawn and got some new maternity pants. I figured soup and salad will help him feel better Are you already in maternity pants or just preparing? Is it weird I've never owned maternity pants? I guess I do have a pair of maternity leggings.

I was a bit disappointed w shape tape for the exact reason you described. Very heavy. I am still using it, but the teeniest tiniest amount. The urban decay naked concealer is great for under eyes if you’re looking for something new. I realize that not everyone would be looking for this but have you noticed the symbol they use for their vegan products? It's supposed to be a dog paw and every time I shop their online store I don't see it on any products so I give up and go back to Tarte.

Also, this hospital plays a lullaby over the intercom every time a baby is born. I get teary eyed every fucking time. I’m sorry, that’s rough. They do that at my hospital too.

Yeah I think the hospital announcing when babies are born is super weird. I've never heard of that. Get out of my biz.

HOW?! There is zero chance I could wear anything besides maternity pants after 20 weeks. Especially not work pants.

I guess my jeans have a little stretch to them? They seem to just kinda fit under the bump?

But I’d be pulling them up all the live long day.

I checked the tube I have and I don’t see it, but I’m guessing it would be on the outer box.

He’s out. The dr said the tumor was on the nerve and the bone. It didn’t look like the cancer was eating through the bone but the nerve goes through the bone. The oncologist he saw yesterday was going to order a body scan to see if it spread anywhere else. Not sure when that will happen though.
He might not be coming home till Sunday now. They extended his liquid diet from 1 week to 3 weeks. My mother is already freaking out.

Here’s what you need for anti-aging skincare: retinol (or Retin-a if you can get a prescription from your derm), hyaluronic acid, and vitamin c. My favorite vitamin C serum is the truth serum from Ole Henrikson (might be vegan cagoldi, some of his stuff is). I’ve been using it since S was born and it has gotten rid of acne scars and dark spots. vino you can use masks as much as you want as long as they aren’t harsh. I would only do the origins mask like once a week, but you could also do a moisturizing mask or brightening mask once a week also.

The Tru Skin Vitamin C serum has hyaluronic acid too.

Thanks. It looks like they added a filter so I can search by vegan items now, so that's cool. I was sure some of their eyeshadow was supposed to be vegan though and it doesn't show up at all when I use that filter. Harumph.

As long as we're talking skin care, any ideas on what to put on my face all winter before I run? I've never done anything special in the past - just left my night cream on - but now that I'm putting the retin-A Rx on before bed, I feel like I need to do something that'll stand up to the combo of cold, dry air and sweat.

Sunscreen! If you are using Retin-A you need to use a good sunscreen every day. Then I’d use a very rich moisturizer to keep your skin from getting wind burned.

I definitely need the moisturized but I only wish I needed sunscreen. I'm back before sunrise at least 8 months out of the year - I can legit star gaze from my front porch when I get home. Depressing.

So some right wing nut (and pedophile, as it turns out) ran over protestors right up the street from my house last night. Motherfucker.

T's report from his day at work: first I went on the big bus, then I saw people taking a nap on the sidewalk, then they scanned us, then I ate McDonalds, then I rode in a car (Uber).

I read about the vitamin c and hyaluronic acid on parenting and have been toying with ordering. It’s retinol that’s not safe during pregnancy right? Do you know if the other two are ok?

Haha I also made a stop for under eye gel and a moisturizer for running. Also my skin hasn't gotten used to the Retin A Rx yet so it's super dry. The dermatologist said it should remedy itself after a week or so. I may not survive that long!!

tgrimes I'm glad your dad is out of surgery ok. Did they say what took longer than expected? Your mom needs to chill and deal! slenle I am horrible about keeping up a skin care routine also. I buy things with the best of intentions, but they just sit. I need help with puffiness under eyes more than circles. Or maybe just more sleep lol.
