Almost outed by Chuck Norris
Hitting the 12 week milestone and how Chuck Norris almost outed my pregnancy 8 weeks early.
St. Anthony, Patron Saint of Lost Things
Before I had a toddler, I only misplaced things. I rarely lost them. It’s a whole new ballgame now.
First trimester, how I loathe you
Nausea, barfing, bloating, gas, stomach cramps, messed up sleep, and a diet consisting of 100% carbs. Yup, sounds like the first trimester.
In My Tenth Week
I admit it — I’ve been cheating a little bit. When folks ask me how pregnant I am, I pad the number just a teeny weeny bit. I’m not lying. Just bending the rules a little.
About Me
Hiya! I'm Lydia, aka Peanut Mom. I live in Iowa with my husband and two pretty amazing iVF babies, both the result of frozen transfers. My daughter "Peanut" is seven and my son "Squeak" is five. Here I write about parenting, life as a midwest mama, embryo donation, infertility, a sprinkling of DIY projects, and life's absurdity with a big helping of humor. Welcome!
