Jilli, I'm not sure how any plan that involves waiting for coffee can be described as clever.
Maybe I just haven't had enough coffee.
Congrats, Stephanie! And feel better.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sox, that's super interesting - your iron was high? I ask because I thought dizziness, esp during pregnancy meant low iron, and so I took an iron supplement on a full stomach (in addition to my vitamins) and I was very ill for about 15 hours.
I should ask my doctor and I know I could call my midwife, but I haven't met the midwife yet so I don't want to call for something minor and I'm about to ditch the doctor so I don't want to call him

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Not it -- I don't think, anyhow. I haven't actually had a period since last January, come to think of it. But, still, in all likelihood emphatically not it.
Oh, Stephanie, the first trimester really just sucks. You're closing in on the second trimester soon, aren't you? I hope it gets much, much easier right quick.
Tons of ~ma to you and Tom, Nora.

This is why making plans before coffee is probably not the best trick ever. But Pete did turn up, and now I am able to banish the caffeine deprivation headache that was starting to creep up on me.

oh, joy, my salad dressing has turned up. Just when I was going to use that as an excuse to eat all the food in Cambridge and everything.
Ah, well. Salad. Good stuff I guess.

not your mom's socks.
Stephanie - they weren't just high, they said they thought I had iron poisoning. They had to do a blood test... not fun, but worth it. I don't know if that's a normal thing for most docs - this was my second ob/gyn, because the first was a practice that was not Sox-friendly. (as in - when I call [once] because I'm worried about something, please do not respond as if I am boring you and say 'there's nothing to do about it.') OB#2 was awesome, and introduced me to our doula/massage therapist - who went through the whole labor with us, and she (the OB) was the one that found the vitamin problem.

Wow - I'll keep that in mind and I was going to ask at my appointment next week anyway.
Yay for the arrival of Jilli's coffee! I've never even met him, but that Pete just sounds so adorable.

He is. He likes making sure I am a spoiled gothy princess. Oh! Did I ever show you guys the couple of photos of us from C13?
