Heh! Nothin. For better or worse, that's my expression when I smile for a picture. That squirrely eyebrow is my signature look.

Well, I won't claim I don't like the weight loss I always have during the first half of pregnancy. But I will say that having food (I love food!) suddenly repulse you and taste way too literally like dog sh1t is not nearly as fun as it sounds (which is sayin' somethin'). Now everyone can just remember this moment as I proceed into the second half where people marvel at the woman who is clearly carrying triplets, 'cause "that can't be just one baby!"

Well, crap. You're right. It doesn't. I re-read and shored up my knowledge, and it's a 50/50 chance for the X-linked recessive to be inherited by either boys or girls. Any boy who did inherit it would be lethally affected; any girl would be a carrier, and not display the traits of the disease. But it's totally possible to have both unaffected girls and boys. (Sigh.)

Two words: Dr. Luz. Email me and I'll put you in touch. She does phone consultations. My 2 cents: It is both what came before AND your husband. If I had to guess.

Jenny, you rock. I will happily pass along your well-reasoned research.

Well, darn. I'm already well-versed in the art of peeing right after and drinking lots of water. I do think I'll start taking the AZO cranberry tablets, though, on a preventative basis. The Beau and I have been dating for 7 months now, so there's no "new" increase in action. Perhaps I just need to get past this rash of incidences and keep building back up my immune system.

Couple of reasons: 1. My girls have always been fairly adventurous eaters. 2. I've never made them their "own" meals. From the time they started table food, it was a little of whatever I was having. Chipotle Burritos, sushi, salsa - all before the age of one. 3. When they started going to daycare and heard from other kids that certain foods might not be "cool", I stuck to my guns and told them their friends weren't cool enough to recognize awesome food. 4. I have no time for options. If you're hungry, eat. If not, fine. But I don't give snacks or dessert to anyone who didn't finish dinner.

Ha! I paint my own nails. At night. After the girls are in bed. And I use a quick-dry top coat so I don't have to sacrifice an hour of my time. It's a nice chance once a week or so to get some time to myself.
