Nordstrom will turn any bra into a nursing bra for $16 (I think that's the cost.) I'm planning on doing this for at least a few bras for the later months when I want a nice looking bra that supports me well and I'm not taking my boobs out every hour, or so it felt like last kid.

This is the most thoughtful and intelligent comment on this article. Thank you. I had also posted about the source article but it is also stuck in the greys. I am shocked, shocked (okay.....not that shocked) that none of the “approved” commenters managed to click on a link and actually read what really happened.

(Also I love your screen name. Poor Jerry.)

I had first seen the actual news article shared on a mom FB group before and I’ll admit that my reaction to the headline was judgmental but as soon as I read the actual article (that had good information unlike Jez’s) I felt sorry for the parents and a bit angry at the doctor. I probably would have reacted a bit…

Thanks! I don’t think anyone did, but hopefully there were similar comments that did.

Some important information about this case missing from this article:

That’s very similar to my first pregnancy. Fucking fasting numbers indeed. My doctor “let” me go to 40 weeks but made a big deal about it, acted like it was a gift. They never even suggested doing any ultrasounds to check how baby and placenta were, just signed me up for an induction even though the twice a week NSTs…

Ah man, now I want a cherry Dr. Pepper. Thanks! :P

If you don’t mind me asking, what was your crazy bad GD like? I have trouble keeping my fasting numbers down, but my post meal numbers are fine. It went away after I had my first son, but this pregnancy I got diagnosed a lot earlier and had to start insulin for my fasting numbers pretty much from the get-go. I’m…

Thanks!

Thanks! I really don’t like the program I’m in but it's closer to home and I have to drag a toddler with me to every appointment. They are a lot stricter on protocols too. They usually want to see patients with insulin induced at 39 weeks. My last doctor let me go until 40. This time I went out and found a doctor with…

Nice! I had GD but only my fasting #s were high. I also weighed less when I delivered than when I started. I wish that I kept off the weight I lost post birth but breastfeeding made me so hungry that I put the weight back on. Still weighed less when I got pregnant again though, so hopefully weight wise I'll have…

I'm 25 weeks into my second pregnancy and second time with GD. It blows. I probably got it since I'm already fat or some other genetic nonsense even though I eat pretty healthy. This potato study is stupid. Potatoes occasionally are not going to affect whether you get it or not. If you do you probably would have even…

My doctor keeps reminding me of that too but it doesn’t really make me feel better when my fasting #s keep going up and down like a fucking roller coaster, no matter what I do. Also my nutritionist gave me grief about having to always increase my bedtime insulin and told me it will make me gain more weight. Jesus…

Oh for sure. Parks was the last show that I would get excited for every new episode and watch right away. I also legitimately laughed out loud at during all episodes unlike most comedic shows lately.

The corset and two pairs of spanx probably did some of the smooshing.

Hooray! I love her and have been really enjoying the show. I was not expecting her to win at all but so happy that she did. This almost makes up for my other pretend best friend, Amy Poehler, losing so many years at award shows.

I love her and was thinking about this song tonight. She looks great!

Totally. I’m all for legalization but the first thing when I did when I saw the article title was giggle and think of politicians making excuses to get high. It was an easy joke and I went for it.
