God, yeah...where was the ultrasound? It definitely should have been used to diagnose a cyst or tumor or other problem in that area, right? I was too distracted by the baby's size to even consider that point!

1, your username gets all the points. 2, if it is correct, I'm thinking maybe untreated gestational diabetes? All I know is both of my kids were induced deliveries at 41 weeks and my daughter—bigger of the two—topped out at 9 pounds 1 ounce. So the thought of a baby that's 9 pounds with 8 weeks left to cook...yikes.

Uh, every bit of this bananas. 6 pregnancy tests?? SIX? And nothing?? And then the fact that a 32 week old fetus ALREADY weighed 9 pounds?? How big would he have been if he'd gone full term?!

I know a woman who has two COMPLETELY untrained dogs. one very large and one medium. She has an electric fence on her property, and she lets the dogs have access to both the front and backyards...and in the front the "fence" goes right up to the sidewalk. Once I went to her house and after they'd jumped on me…

I read this thinking "This can't possibly get worse" and then it just. kept. happening. I should have stopped reading at "cadaver wrangler."

Haha! What you've got there, friend, is a damned-if-you-do,-damned-if-you-don't scenario. ;)

I think that even while tumbling down an escalator strapped to a wheelchair, I would still reject the attention of a dude wearing mandals.

This is my friend's lethally cute new bunny. Society is all, "YOU SHOULD HAVE EARS THAT MATCH" and bunny is all "NO." (I know the ear might drop. But we all pray it never does.)

That article you linked is interesting! I didn't realize that the source material is a lot of melancholy Bond, but you're right, that style would totally fit in in modern movies. And not just within the Bond universe, but lately we can't get enough of dark and moody heroes (I'm looking at you, Christopher Nolan). I…

They're fucking chilling. My husband recently tried to make me look at a buzzfeed article on Victorian era photos of ventriloquists and their dummies, and now I know my husband is plotting my death. (Only got to number 2 on the list but CAN'T UNSEE.)

Every time I watch Hot Fuzz, I turn to my husband and yell "Timothy Dalton=HANDSOMEST BOND."

You're exactly right, "we're having a baby"communicates the same thing. I feel like the men who say, "we're pregnant" are the same men who act like dealing with a crabby, sick, sex-avoiding baby mama is as great a burden than carrying the actual baby. "It's hard for me, too!"

That's a good point, maybe I will volunteer to be an assistant coach! I could provide delicious snacks and a "lets just have fun!" counterpoint to a "winning is everything!" head coach. :)

Okay, this news coming on the heels of OITNB season 2 premiering on Netflix this past weekend can't be a coincidence, right?

God, I'd have guessed this was the anesthesiologist who did my epidural for baby #1, but I'm on the other side of the country. He told me a racist joke while doing the damn procedure! I know I should have said something but I was too scared to upset a man putting a foot long needle in my spine. : /

My husband and I have long joked/dead-serious'd that I'll be the one who takes our kids for their first softball or baseball glove. We're both totally comfortable in that flip of gender roles, since he hates most sports and I like them. I have considered coaching but I worry that my complete impatience with 99.9% of…

So many laugh-out- loud lines in this season, highlighted by everything involving those nuns. The mini banjo, the songs, the scattering. "Side Boob" as a band name is hilarious. And I loved Caputo's incredulous, "Do I hear light jazz??" when he finally got ahold of Fig during the blackout. I need to rewatch to catch…

Gaaaaaahh. Even if Bennett/Daya are becoming Bates/Anna levels of boring, NEVER LEAVE, MATT MCGORRY. He is so g.d. cute.

It kinda delights me because 1, watching a deeply religious woman perform "sinful" pop music with passion is great. And 2, since the Catholic Church would prefer that women just shut up and drop dead, it's nice to see one of their own using her, for lack of a better word, voice. She may not be changing the world but…

Thanks a lot for the seltzer that just shot out of my nose.
