The last few times after I've gone pee I end up doubled over in minor pain. It never lasts more than a minute and it feel like stretching and poking. Almost like its going into by diaphragm and down into my hips. It doesn't last long and it isn't huge pain at all so I'm wondering if the baby is just stretching out a little after I pee because it has more room. I'm gonna talk to the doctor about it next week but I figured I'd ask the professionals.

The only thing that worries me is that the baby should be still too small to feel so I'm not exactly sure why I feel like this and its only after I pee....:eyebrow ]]> Parenthood ashlee1006 http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18492 sewing pattern http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18491&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Feb 2010 05:12:45 GMT Ok, so I am not good at just whipping something up without a pattern to cut and follow... do any of you ladies know a fairly easy pattern to make a...

Because I'm making it for a crowd, I decided not to do individual ramekins and instead poured the panna cotta into a pretty glass tray, about one and half inches deep, that would look nice and still be shallow enough to make the panna cotta gel nicely. I should have known that I couldn't carry a full tray of panna cotta across the kitchen and get it into the fridge without disaster. Ugh. I got it *almost* to the shelf and then sloshed it down the inside of the fridge, the fronts of the drawers, and onto the floor. My cat thought the disaster was awesome and showed up in .5 seconds to start licking the panna cotta off the floor. Silly girl!

Thankfully, 90% of it stayed in the tray and I'll be able to show up with a decent dessert tomorrow night. But the cleanup took as long as the panna cotta took to make. I had to remove the drawers and mop up the bottom of the fridge with a towel. A little panna cotta sure makes a big mess. But there's no sense crying over spilled milk, or cream in this case! :bigsmile ]]> Solo-Ops Compwalla http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18490 Hello have two questions http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18489&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Feb 2010 03:24:29 GMT We are going through our first deployment I do not live on base because my husband is National Guard and the unit he got attached to is 5 hours away... We are going through our first deployment I do not live on base because my husband is National Guard and the unit he got attached to is 5 hours away I live about 15 minutes outside Chattanooga Tennessee he is out of dresden tennessee with that in mind I can't go to frg meetings and they do not send me anything from his unit at all. I use the Chattanooga National guard armory and the guy who is there if I have a problem. Now I just sent my first care package to my husband and I obviously didn't know the rules becasue no one told me but in his care package I sent him 3 bars of soap and then saw somewhere where you shouldn't send bar soap due to it possibly melting and I also put my address and name on the package which later saw somewhere where that was probally not a good idea either my question is will he get in trouble for this or will his package be undeliverable? I know now not to do that again but at the time I didn't know I have no one around here that tells me anything since I don't live on a base or close to any place to ask. the other question I have is when he deployed the loan we had dropped our interest rate to 0 percent which is great but my husband was allowed to come home for christmas prior to shipping overseas and he went in while he was here and made a payment for me that day which the company told me becasue he did that the 0 interest rate would not apply until march so I have made at least two payments being charged full interest well I argued with the company and they said that was their company policy I told them that he was still under title 10 orders just because he came home for christmas shouldn't make a difference so the other question is are they allowed to do that just becasue he was here and signed even though he was still active only here for 9 days for christmas before shipping out sorry this is so long and I hope it makes sense thanks for listening ]]> Solo-Ops gapeachmomof32000 http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18489 WOOT!! http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18488&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Feb 2010 01:34:28 GMT This is another step in the "new me program"....

I was talking to a friend in PA this morning and she was telling me how her niece was gang raped by several guys and how this has affected her life now. The young girl is in her 20's and is having issues now.
The thing that really pisses me off is that she told me that the girls one friend will not talk to her anymore.
This girl says she DESERVED it. Now tell me.....WHO THE FUCK DESERVES THAT???
I don't care what sort of person you are or how many mistakes you have made in life... NO ONE DESERVES THAT EVER IN A MILLION YEARS!!! I don't care how slutty they dress even...doesn't give anyone the right to do what they did to her.

I will tell you this: I believe in KARMA, and this is gonna bite that bitch in the ass hard and Im gonna sit back and laugh!

I was wondering this: Do you think anyone "deserves" to be raped?


Yes this is your opinion and no I will not kill you for having one that is different than mine. :P ]]> Dee-Dee http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18487 me again http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18485&goto=newpost Tue, 09 Feb 2010 00:23:19 GMT i need to ask those who pray to send extra special prayers my way. there are VERY SERIOUS things going on at my house right now that i can't talk about on here without breaking a promise that i will not break. one person here knows - and i appreicate you reading my *i'm sure* incoherent emails about it.

whats going on it something i never thought in a billion years i'd have to deal with. i've had more bad things happen in less than a week than should be allowed to any one person.

on top of this thing i can't say what it is - wes' mom fell again Thursday - has been in the hospital since (and didn't tell us she was in the hospital this whole time) and will be transferred to a rehad center tomorrow. this is the second time in less than a YEAR she's fallen and hurt herself but she and her husband deny / reject getting a professional to help her at home.

so i have that to deal with too.

our minister is in trouble. we don't know what has happened - the bishop is calling it a 'personell issue' but he is on suspension for at least 90 days. this guy isn't even a hugger - so it worries me for him and our church as to what happened.

anyway - please send extra prayers and good thoughts to my house - i need all the help i can get right now. ]]> Support (Venting/Prayer) Susan http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18485 Hi! http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18484&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Feb 2010 23:12:11 GMT My name is Suzette and my husband, Josh, is AD Army and we're currently in Kentucky. We've been really close friends for 5 years, together for over a year, and married for almost a year. We're currently expecting our first child (a girl) in June, right around our one year anniversary. :D While he's currently not deployed, I'm sure you all know how important it is to have a support system, and sounding board, of people who understand for the inevitable "just in case." Family is a great thing to have, but a family built of military spouses who understand what you're going through... it's something that no one else can duplicate. Anyway, I'll put my little soap box away now, since I know that all of you already know this and I'm rambling because, well, it's a little difficult meeting new people online. lol. I hope that I can meet some great new people here!! ]]> Introductions suzig http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18484 Shutterbug Challenge 2/8-2/21 http://www.soloops.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18482&goto=newpost Mon, 08 Feb 2010 19:31:28 GMT Yay.. i remembered to post it today!
