Sounds worth a try. I've never been able to O that way, but who knows everything seems to be different now.

 

[Tiff]

Here's hoping it works!

Post Pregnancy Sex......

Spoiler

anyone still get SUPER sore in their perrenium (or perennial WENDY ) area after??

we had had sex Sunday night and Monday morning and even if I wanted to again I am too sore there to want to!

 

[Vickie]

the things you talk about when my kid isn't napping though she is tired I'm just trying to keep her up until after lunch and see how that goes.

nicknames: mine are grasshopper, gracey, Vic, Vickie-dee, Viktora, and Vickie-Victoria depending on who you talk to

I am a list person too!

I have a Christmas gift list , a baby room to do list, a "things we still don't have for the baby" list, a housecleaning wishlist (for the cleaning company my Mom has hired to clean my place Dec 21!), and a hospital bag packing list!

Tasha - even walmart would have textured tights - I like the one's Nic posted!

Jay - glad things are improving between you and Chris

I don't have a text buddy. I was hoping Shawn would be able to post updates on facebook from the hospital (he is never without his iphone). I guess I could have a text buddy just in case.

Wendy - don't have a nickname

Spoiler

(though many of my body parts do)

Aww Rachel - that is so cute! Shawn talks to miniapple all the time, but has never read to him yet.

Tiff - that almost makes me want to do jumping jacks

Ok since Tiff brought it up - pregnancy sex questions (TMI warning!)

Spoiler

I have always enjoyed sex and O at least once every time and now half of the time I can't! It's so frustrating! Is that normal? I sure hope things go back to how they were afterwards. I mean it's still fun, but (warning way TMI!) last night he went down on me, I tried being on top and on bottom and eventually just gave up on the O. Plus my tummy feels like it's getting pummeled during sex and I know miniapple is fine, but it's uncomfortable. I thought we'd be one of those couples who keep on doing it till the end, but I'm ready to give it up for the next two months

Screw the spoilers! Right now it's doggy style for me or nothing lol. My bump is too big and it's too uncomfortable any other way.. well minus standing. If he's coming at me from behind if I'm on my knees or standing life is damn good. Shower sex is the best

Amanda I do love making lists! I'm bad at keeping to the cleaning ones though lol.
I have a list for what I need in each bag, basically we'll each get 1 bag lol.

I do still need to make a list of everything I need to do in December, which is what I was talking about last night. I'll have fun when I start that! I want everything to be super clean, I want my cupboards stocked, and everything all around organized and ready for Amira and company.


*edit* The reading to Amira went well! She's been getting a bit more active the last few days but last night was great while he was reading to her. I'm so happy we finally have some books for her! I need to look for more Richard Scarry!
Peter thinks his mom might still have some of his old books hanging around, which I really hope she does because I love the idea of reading Amira from the same books that Peter grew up with.

Yeah I found after-baby sex uncomfortable at times too! The first was because I had stitches on the inside that hadn't healed yet (ouch!) and then too tired/not in the mood. I'm so glad that it is starting to get back to the way that it was... I like that closeness from it.

According to P, we still don't do it enough... but I'm happy with where we're at.

I get friction burn really easy now... that would happen before but not as often.

random topic change. Here are my first two pages for the Grandparents scrapbook. Honest opinions please.

 

[Vickie]

those are amazing Terri!

 

[Try Rocking]

Oh that's great! Personally I love them!

 

[redberry3]

very cute Terri!!!

 

[Vickie]

Terri: toys for crawlers, Hannah actually didn't play much with her toys at that age, she preferred to get into my things. The few toys she liked were her shape sorter and this music mat thing that she'd crawl back and forth on to make music.

 

[redberry3]

soooo cute Rae

 

[Try Rocking]

lol what a cutie!

 

[tasha41]

Nic - I actually have shoes just like that LOL. They are from Le Chateau though and they're off white... don't think that will work with my dress! I have a few pairs of black shoes, I'll take a pic and you guys can help me choose another day

Tyff- loud noises like that scare Elyse too; she did great at Friday the 13th in Port Dover but if a motorcycle goes by the house and it's loud she cries

Re: text buddies.. I had one when I was pregnant. I texted her once, Merry Christmas, and no text back. Pretty sure she left BnB. lol

About nicknames, I have a drinking nickname. It's "Natrasha" or Trasha for short. My friend Ashley was "Smashley".

And, I have no shame, so.. post partum sex is the best ever. I had a c-section though, may change things a bit. We're super active, after taking a break from Jan-May.

Oooooh and I LOVE the scrapbook, Terri!! "Womb with a View" is so clever

 

[tasha41]

& Renah is so cute.. I want to meet her! Why do you have to live so far??

 

[redberry3]

Tasha - Natrasha ....my friend Ashley used to me called Smashley!!

 

[Tiff]

Love the scrapbook!

I'm contemplating as part of a christmas gift for P to do up a Scrapbook of our relationship thus far. However, I don't know if he'll appreciate it. Okay, I mean he WILL appreciate it of course... but somehow I think he'd appreciate a game so much more.

 

[apple84]

Rachel you're great!

Ok sounds like doggy style is something to try. Shower sex is something I have never been able to figure out...it's so awkward and there's so little room (and Shawn and I are little people - well not like actual little people, but both under 5"6)

I love the scrapbook pages Terri! I was to come up with something for all my ultrasound pictures too!

 

[Try Rocking]

I found shower sex awkward before Peter.. and keep in mind we only have a shower stall that shrinks each time my bump grows lol. Anyhow, I find soap helps, keeps things nice and slippery.. and of course fun

And for us doggy style works best if I'm on the edge of the bed and he's standing behind me. Also at the window is nice, especially if you're having heat issues lol. (or you're like Peter and somehow like the idea of getting caught lol)

Btw... I downloaded some Mary Poppins music for Amira, and she's loving it! Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious made her thump me good!

 

[pinkmac85]

Terri I LOVE the pages..SO CUTE!! Maybe I should try digital scrapbooking.
