Oh and ps FUUUUUUUUUUCK you.

No, I’m fucking NOT. I pump at 10 pm. I then have one glass of champagne. I pump again at 4 am. One serving of alcohol leaves your breastmilk in two hours. I give it six just to be safe. But I suppose mr pubes knows my schedule and is also smarter than my doctor?

Oh, thanks for the recommendation! I’m always looking for new things to watch while I’m pumping. (Pumping is sooooo boring and takes forever, so distractions are good!)

My pelvis is not in amazing shape right now, unfortunately, so I get about 40 minutes and then a fair amount of pain. But last week it was 30 minutes, 20 the week before, so I’m improving my stamina. Trying to get out with her more than once a day, but her schedule and moods have been so unpredictable, I don’t manage

Wow, 37 weeks - hope you aren’t too terribly uncomfortable. Did you find your second pregnancy easier than the first because you knew what to expect? Or harder because you’re more tired running around after your 2 year old? (We haven’t decided yet if we want a second kid and I am just having such a hard time wrapping

Best of luck! It’s been really hard but so exciting as well. And I swear, just when things are getting the toughest (sleep deprivation or crankiness wise) that’s when the amazing milestones happen - first smiles are amazing and cool things like watching your baby make a connection like see a toy, hit a toy, toy moves!

Ah! Love this! And not creepy at all - delightful!

Aw, thank you! And yes, I think these were both just added on April 1st. I saw an article with things new to Netflix and Hulu this month and got really happy. :)

I adore the X-Files and have been meaning to do a rewatch at some point! (Though I stopped watching after season 7, I believe, if I’m remembering correctly.) Sadly, I did not enjoy the one episode of the new episodes I caught - have you seen all of them? Thoughts??

Yes, it really has improved for me on a daily basis, starting with week 6. But I was lucky to have a good support system, including a friend who had very severe postpartum anxiety and had to be on medication for it for several months. You’ll do great! Just set up that support system now and possibly even have an

I’m not drinking while breastfeeding, you moron.

The easiest, lowest calorie thing I like to make is to cook a ton of kale, mushrooms, a little bit of red cabbage and onions together. Once it’s cooked, I put salt and pepper, and mix some low cal balsamic dressing right in the skillet. Once it’s all mixed it, I put one or two sunny side up eggs on top of it

Hi Jezzies! What are you up to tonight? Netflix PSA - Best in Show and the Princess Bride are both streaming now, so that basically sums up my plans for tonight (adding in some time to pump breastmilk, enjoy a couple of glasses of champagne, and chill with my cranky 7 week old baby.)

When I was pregnant the best advice I got was from my boss at the time, a kind of blunt dude, who said “Just don’t file any divorce papers until after the kid turns 2.” I was like uh, what? And he clarified that it’s just such an adjustment, like a cute little bomb goes off in your life, that it can take a year or two

My favorite thing about Marco Rubio is when he was asked what he got for Christmas and he said a gun to defend his family against ISIS. In Florida.A handgun. I mean... that was the most terrible pandering I have seen in my life, except when Carly Fiorina rooted against her own alma mater to try to win votes in Iowa.

That’s one of my favorite places in the entire world! Have so much fun! :)

Boring, I’m sure, but I adore my Honda Civic. I’ve had it since 2005, driven it cross country multiple times, used it as my car when I delivered pizza for a living, and the only repairs I’ve had to do were to replace brake pads, rotors and batteries. Good gas mileage too! Good luck!

Aw, what a cutie! Also, I got divorced from a very nice but not right for me man nearly 10 years ago and I still get happy when I realize I will never see his terrible, overbearing mother again as long as I live. ;) It’s a liberating feeling that does not fade, my friend! Cheers!

Ooh, super interested! Unfortunately, I’m not quite finished with my novel yet (3/4 of the way through.) If the offer still stands in a few months I’d love to take you up on it!

I understand some people who advocate for the right to bear arms as a means of self defense or for hunting, but I will never, ever, in all my life understand those who regard guns as toys. THEY’RE NOT FUCKING TOYS, MORONS. They can easily kill a person and, in fact, killing a person or animal is kind of their primary
