Did this neighbor move or did he just not put up his display this year??

He moved. A very large Indian family moved into the house . .. . . nothing exciting on the front lawn anymore. But wonderful cooking smells when I walk by. . . .. . ..

Holy crap.....Sophie and I are going to a baby shower next month, and on the invitation it says that our pregnant friend is "Registered at Toys R Us".

Gads. Call me old-fashioned, or just old, but what's the world coming to? Women are registering now for baby stuff? I dunno....just so impersonal, no real thought goes into any gift-giving anymore, no one has time . . .. . .

Has this been going on for a while with baby showers?

Perhaps I'm simply way outta the loop. . . . .

Ummmm . . . yep . . . my crowd all registered at Baby's R Us . . . and so did we . . . keeps you from getting a lot of duplicates and having to take it back and return it which is not something you want to do when you're 8 months preggers.

I also think this is very impersonal as well as saying I don't want your idea of a gift. If it were me I'd just go with my gut feeling and get what I wanted to get for the baby. Just my two cents worth :)

Yep, this is exactly what I'm gonna do. I cannot imagine going into Toys R Us, looking at an extensive list of items, half of which I won't even touch or see, choosing whatever thing falls into my price range, and having it boxed and delivered to her house.

:huh:

Hanh?

What have we come to.......?.....no time to search for a heartfelt gift that YOU think of, and pick out, and touch? If she needs to return it for whatever reason, I will absolutely do that for her.....

There. Okay.....decision made......

Back to mini, flurrying posts!!

Yes, it seems the gift giving for baby showers is very specific (much like weddings) where in the invitation you get a little card to where they are registered.

On the one hand I can see that it helps give the parents to be the chance to request what they really need, instead of having a bunch of stuff they might not want/use, or as Janet said duplicates

....but yeah on the other hand it's impersonal and kind of against old etiquette to ask for your gifts :lol:

Hey! I see Barack's been travelling on the whistle-stop train to Washington. Apparently, several hundred people from Ottawa arranged a huge tour bus to head down and meet him there. .. .

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      still struggling with cravings

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
