Laugh while you still can, Kat. I'm just sayin'...
Yeah I'm learning this. My friend K got pregnant a month before me (and then miscarried, so ultimately a sad story). She and I were both seeing the same FNP etc and were undergoing similar treatment. She was terrified of having to be on bedrest and at the possibility of having multiples.
I teased her about both things.
And, lo and behold, I was on bedrest at week 6 or something and am having twins.
I'd call it poetic justice, but really, my more superstitious self thinks it is Ganesha playing a joke on me. From a practical standpoint what it has meant is being more careful about what I tease other people about.
I'm so sorry for her loss.
I've learned the lesson you've learned, not only during pregnancy, but just in the course of everyday parenting. I try hard (and still fail, sometimes) NOT to say, "I would never..." about other people and their kids, because it's bit me on the ass more than I care to remember.
Theo, that is good news. And it's amazing what just a few simple exercises over the course of a month or six weeks can do to alleviate the problem. I'm glad they caught it early.
My parents still have a bar installed in their bedroom door for exercises my mother had to do for a rotator cuff thing several years ago. It's awfully handy for hanging clothes on!
I'm outgrowing too fucking much of my clothes.
Gaining or losing becomes a pain the ass because stupid clothes don't adjust themselves to fit!

and welcome to my world. I love and hate that my closet has everything from size 2 to size 16. That might not be a big deal, but I have worn all of those sizes within the past year!
for needing new sizes quickly for an unknown amount of time, I would look at buying lots on ebay or for things on freecycle.

That's right. I'd forgotten. You got teensy tiny, and then you got pregnant with twins.
Bless.
I bought a brand new wardrobe right before I got pregnant, the first time.
I've been in bed for twelve hours! I didn't sleep the whole time, but I slept better than I have in weeks and weeks!
I'm still tired.
Yay for sleeping! I just ran errands, which I never do in the actual morning hours, so I'm feeling very accomplished. It was good because there were hardly any people out.
How was the bed last night, Jesse?
