I hate it when people post just to post.....

....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

  • I'm having a very hard time understanding why three out of four guinea pigs have the first letter of their name capitalized, but the fourth one (cuddles), has the first letter of its name in lower cas

  • well, i respectfully disagree. I don't think its acceptable to do it. I strongly dont think that its ok to do it, and i do not think that someone who's doctor didnt tell them about PB's who comes here

Ambien doesn't work for me, it barely puts me to sleep and within 2 hours I am up again-wide awake. I have trouble staying asleep. We tried lunesta, but it left a horrible medicine taste in my mouth that lingered well into the next day-but it did work. I was going to ask about ambien cr, then found out I was pregnant.

My sister said her rehab sprinkled the sleep time baby powder on their sheets at night, she said it really helps. I keep meaning to get some.

One thing that doesn't help is being at a computer screen.. the emissions from computers trigger your brain to be awake.

As do LED displays on clocks (according to some research).

If you're really desperate, Docs usually approve the antihistimine - type sleep meds (but, IMO, they suck.....they tend to stay in your system around 4X longer than Ambien / Lunesta) for preggos. Unfortunately, when you're pregnant, a hormonal war is being fought within your body....and that usually translates to trouble sleeping (and I haven't even dipped into the physical uncomforts that come with the latter months of pregnancy). So......good luck with that.

I couldn't take that taste, it was so bizarre.

And plain, yeah they said I can take benadryl or unisom..which I found out recently is THE EXACT SAME THING. How interesting is that.. Unisom is 2x dose than benadryl..and they recommend unisom for nausea with pregnancy..

Oddly enough,my insomnia is actually curing itself with pregnancy heh.

I'm so tired all the time..

With my back out right now, I do 'try' to toss and turn all night.. lot of moaning and inching my way around. Due to the meds they have me on though, I am able to sleep through the pain for hours at a time.

I did just get my pregnancy bed pillow today (curled up in it now).. it's verra verra nice.

My nine year old has now participated in a focus group and gotten $75 for it. What is the world coming to? :crying:

lol....It is a world run by consumerism and the younger they get those consumers the better! I am doing a project on this today! :wink2:

Oh, no...not math.

My daughter keeps asking, "If I do this, this and this, can I have $20?"

Um...no. But, do this, this and this anyway. Just for the fun of it.
