And Here's What I Think

You guys were ~fabulous~ in answering my few, aka 10, questions. These are all questions I have a very strong opinion and/or argue with my husband about. So let me give you my answers, which of course, are the absolutely CORRECT answers to each of them. (oh, how wrong some of you were! ~wink~)

1. How should the roll of toilet paper go on the roll? Overhang or underhang
~ Overhang. And yes, if it's the wrong way, it needs to be changed. Of course some of you have brought up exceptions, which I will always accept, but in the case of no pets, etc, overhang is the only option. If I come into your house and it's underhang, I will assume you are stupid. Or your husband changed the roll.

2. When changing your sheets, how should the top sheet be put on?
~ The design/front of the sheet needs to be facing the bottom sheet. This includes solid colored sheets, as there is always a front and back. This is so when you get into bed, you have both sides of the softest sides of sheets against your body. And it looks pretty too.

3. How do you store sweaters in your closet? Hangers or folded?
~ Sweaters need to be folded so you don't have shoulder nipples. Although I do hang my cardigans on special hangers, avoiding the nipple look.

4. Do you wipe forwards or backwards?
~ I don't argue this if you are a girl. Front to back should be the rule. But I want to challenge that it's not the ONLY way to do it. I was never taught this technique and I swear, I can't do it front to back. Now, I don't pull all the way forward during the wipe, I stop at the perineum, which of course, after 36 years of practice, I think I'm skilled enough to continue. I'm not a walking infection. It's a problem for me though, because I have no idea what to teach my daughters. I'm working on the front to back technique but I can't show them how cause I'm apparently front to back stupid.

5. What color socks do you wear with black tennis shoes?
~ I have black converse which have white on them, so I think I can get away with white socks. But if I see someone with solid black shoes and white socks, I'll point and laugh. Yes, I will.

6. If wearing a white shirt, what color bra should you use?
~ The bra should be the color of your skin. If you are a white girl, where a nude/tan bra. If you are a black girl, wear a black bra. Nothing sticks out more than a white bra underneath a white shirt!

7. Is it ever okay to wear pantyhose with open toed shoes?
~ No. Never ever. Never. Ever. And those toeless pantihose? Please, so dumb looking. Please do not ever do this. Ever.

8. Is it ever okay to wear socks with sandals?
~ Nope. But exceptions are okay, such as being a little kid or a nurse who wears crocs for comfort during the winter. Too cold to wear your sandals without socks? Guess what? It's not sandal weather. Put some shoes on.

9. Is it okay to shout out to your husband/boyfriend "spank me daddy!" while having sex?
~ The "daddy" part is only okay if you have a daddy complex. And if you do, well, you've got a teeny bit of a problem.

10. Is asking 10 questions still considered "a few"?
~ Nope. But I'm a rebel.

On to some baby talk ...

Had u/s #16 today. Baby boy did great and got a perfect score on his test. And he's growing right on target. Well, maybe a little less, as last time (4 wks ago) he was in 40th percentile and today he was only 34th percentile. I'll be talking to my doc on Friday about that. Anywho, he's weighing in at 1425 grams, which is 3 lbs and 2.26 oz. So I'm happy with his gaining but I need him to really keep growing on target. As you may remember, the cord issue could show problems around 32/34 weeks if there are problems. Seeing a decrease in percentage scares the ever living crap out of me. The next u/s is next week, but there won't be another growth scan until 34 weeks. I can already tell how anxious I'll be.

Here's today's 3D picture:



Oh - and the tech and I snuck a peek into my file and I passed the 3 hour GD test. Yay! And, he's totally head down again. Another "yay!" for the day.
