I like all those words

I bought the greatest bra for nursing. It is now, along with a pair of PJ bottoms, my constant home-uniform. It's fantastic, pregnant, nursing, or not.

Also I bought the greatest deodorant. I'm sharing only because I think you should ditch your Sure and get this stuff before the aluminum gives you cancer. I'm just thinking ahead

Ready for Ike?

[shaynabelle]

YES! nothing much will hit us except some rain and lowered temps, and I cannot WAIT. Other parts of the state might get some heavy wind n such. Speaking of hurricaines, I cannot believe you were out of power for eight whole freakin' hours. That is just nuts!! I'm glad it's back on and all is well, though.

Re: "I cannot believe you were out of power for eight whole freakin' hours. That is just nuts!! "

Days. Eight Days. LOL (I know that's what you meant.)
And yes, it was nuts. But we're home now and taking in a refugee of our own tonight - a friend of Tim's from work, who will likely still be powerless for another week or more.
I think there's some sort of rule that if you give birth during a hurricane, you have to name the kid after the storm or something like that. I'm just saying.

[shaynabelle]

Er, yeah, 8 days!! That's NUTS! Man, I can't imagine being so displaced. Oy. :(

Midwife says she'd be shocked if I actually went into labor this weekend, so thank goodness I won't have to name him Ike!

[brennarella]

a week away? oh noes.

[shaynabelle]

Or two. :( I'm starting to worry he's going to miss meeting you. But I just read that bouncing on a big yoga ball helps start things, so today that's my mission.

i LOVE weleda deodorant. i keep a thing of it in my car. when my car gets kinda stinky, i spray it, too.

i have a little present for you, btw (from summer). and some goldenseal. i'm so excited that you're so close to babydom. <3

[shaynabelle]

Dude, that stuff ROCKS! A friend of mine was telling me that she actually makes her own stuff. She gets unscented and then adds a a little essential oil to it so she can change the scents up and doesnt' get tired of just the one. I wanna try that!!

(omg, am I really excited about deodorant?)

Aww, man, you and summer can't give me MORE stuff! You guys have spoiled me. I have continued my goldenseal search and both WFs still insist they don't carry it, the buttheads. Maybe we can grab tea sometime soon? What're you doing this afternoon?

[xacat]

that's so funny that nobody has it anymore! i'm not doing anything this afternoon. wanna grab tea?

I'm in love with the (no doubt supercaustic) Degree Clinical Strength Sheer Power scent stuff. I have never liked the kind that you click and it comes out of the little holes, but this stuff *rocks* massively. But I may decide to switch to something less bad when the time comes, so it's good to read your endorsement.

This little thing Chrysta has for you was just an experiment. :) It needs a home.

And from what I've read, 21 lbs is, like, nuthin.

Is it selfish of me to hope that you will wait 13 more days? :)

[shaynabelle]

AWwwww don't wish that on me!!! But it doesn't seem super unlikely...

If he is that late, the ONLY saving grace of his lateness will be that he shares a bday with you.

Oooh re: that bra. Let me know if you find any equally cool casual nursing tops. I've had very little luck in that area and wind up just hiking up my shirts to my neck! Fine at home, but not so great in public.

[shaynabelle]

I'll letcha know what I find! The whole nursing/hiding boob thing seems like it'll be an interesting struggle...
