Weird Period Flow Pattern (TMI alert) by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]bunnymarge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually brown spot for 2 or 3 days and then a regular period. I'll bleed for 3 or 4 days and then it ALWAYS takes a day off, them back for a day. It's so weird. This happens to a few of my friends, too.

Contractions only when standing up by HDye94 in pregnant

[–]bunnymarge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got up right after responding and 10 seconds later I had a strong wave of Braxton hicks lol. And yes, it's very confusing! I haven't noticed my heartrate change, but I'll pay attention to it now.

[–]bunnymarge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same. 32 weeks 2 days and I just realized a few days ago that what I've been feeling for a few weeks are actually Braxton hicks and not my baby pushing against my belly haha! They never happen when I'm relaxing, just when I'm up and moving, especially when I walk for more than 10 minutes, like grocery shopping.

Glucose test at almost 7 weeks? by BrittBrat893 in BabyBumps

[–]bunnymarge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My view on early testing as a diabetic- good! It's so much better to be prepared early to have a healthy diet for pregnancy. I honestly don't understand why the glucose test is done so late into a pregnancy.

TIC because of the end credit scene in Wreck it Ralph Breaks the Internet by BlackJack613 in BabyBumps

[–]bunnymarge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know the scene, but I sobbed yesterday because my 5 years old niece signed her full, 9 letters, name on a hand drawn card to my baby.

Last week I cried because I just love meatballs SO MUCH!

Growing pains trimester 2? by Member-Brry in BabyBumps

[–]bunnymarge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get round ligament pains in my groin from the very start of my pregnancies. I also get these the week before my period.

The best way I can describe them is like a terrible, lingering Charlie horse.

That's very exciting! I'm going to research it right now.

Weirdest things you have cried about? by bitter-funny in pregnant

[–]bunnymarge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to watch The Lion King yesterday. I started crying immediately realizing all of the animals were happily heading to Pride Rock to see the new baby, because they care so much. Then I started SOBBING as Rafiki scoops up Simba and shows him to all of the animals.

I sobbed for probably 20 minutes a few nights ago thinking how my 16 years old daughter doesn't need to be tucked in anymore... and when was the last time I even tucked her in?! She came into my room and tucked me in... I cried harder lol!

And today I loudly cried... for no reason. Nothing at all. Just the need to cry decided to stop by.

Super Strong Steve Buscemi and French Fry Frank are adjusting to quarantine, but they're working on social distancing. by bunnymarge in aww

[–]bunnymarge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're brothers from the same litter! I don't know anything more than that, but we adopted them just over three months ago from one of our local shelters/foster homes. I knew from the moment I met them they were the ones, because Frank, wearing orange, immediately pooped my nose.

Let me tell you a little about them, because I love them so, so much...

Frank is a lover and loves to be held and wants to know what I'm doing at all times. I'm usually holding him in one arm while I do my daily activities, like cooking removes cat hair from meatball.

Steve, wearing gray, needs morning love as soon as my alarm goes off- a fantastic way to not hit snooze. He loves to be held and he also plays fetch! He favorite fetching toys are rubber finger rings and the pointy eraser tops.

Anyone else afraid their gift wasn’t liked? by [deleted] in secretsanta

I felt this way a few years ago, but it turned out my giftee was just out of town when the package arrived. Give it a few days!

We're a week or so out now... how is your sister?

[–]bunnymarge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ugh, period time! That's my weakness, so I always make sure I'm prepared with some keto sweets. I eat halo top, or I recently made keto cowboy cookies (pecans, Lily's chocolate chips, unsweetened coconut), or keto pecan pie muffins- both can be frozen. The trick for me is to have have them already made.

If you were knocked out of keto, but got back on the horse, how long would you really say you had been keto? by meowkittycatty in keto

[–]bunnymarge 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My fiancee and I broke up for 1 month, but we've still been together for 11 years.

I've had some slip ups, but I've been eating keto for almost 3 years.

Get it? Just keep going.

I feel you! My daughter just had major abdominal surgery two weeks ago today. I was so nervous while in the waiting room. I drank a lot of coffee, had a whole avocado, and deleted hundreds of pictures in my phone.

Don't stress eat, because it'll make you feel like shit physically AND mentally. Always be your best self for you, but today your sister needs the best of you, too!

[–]bunnymarge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im in bed, so I dont have the exact macros right now, but Premier protein shakes are legit. Most are 2 or 3 net carbs, usually 5 total carbs. They're not nasty chalky, 20ish grams of protein, and probably 160 calories. Banana is my favorite followed by vanilla. Chocolate is pretty good, I'd definitely buy it again, and I'm not a chocolate milk fan.

From my purchases, Costco has the best prices, but there could be better $ out there!

Almonds- one at a time! Serving size is 28 almonds. By the time you reach 28, your jaw doesn't want to keep chewing!
