Been busy on that front. However, yesterday I was brushing mystery and noticed a small black spot on the left side of my tongue. Hubby says it is just a blood blister, but how can you tell? It doesn't hurt at all. I guess we just watch and wait a week.

Can't explain it. But they do go away. And then last week I noticed a black spot on my tongue that worried me. But a coupla days later it too was gone.
Keep us posted - hoping it's nothing. And, as we say in the old country, Mazel Tov on the baby!
