You wanna know something REALLY pathetic??

A litter box dictates my living arrangements. A freaking litter box. I can't use the completely open 2nd bedroom we pay rent for every month as a nursery because the box is in there and I won't make my baby sleep near pooping cats. And while searching online for a new apartment community to move into next June, I am looking at floor plans thinking "Can I hide a cat box there? No? Next!"

If it makes you feel any better,we are house hunting and one of my criteria is there needs to be a place for the litter box where we won't have to smell it.

I'm nervous I'm going to get sick. Some friends of ours both recently had a nasty stomach bug, and then after dinner yesterday DH started getting sick and was throwing up last night. He seems so miserable, and feverish. I really hope I can avoid it!

@niki912 I would have said, "pregnant? I'm not pregnant!!!"

BiggerinRealLife

What the freaking what?!? I can't, I don't, I just, arrrrrrgh!!! Couldn't fall asleep until 4 am and now my body wakes me up at 8? What, we're all those days of sleep too much? I've used up my sleep quota?? Hey ladies! It's true what they tell you! Get all the sleep you can now because you CAN bank sleep!!!! Ohmigosh I'm so frustrated and mad and TIRED!

/sleep deprived rant.

Oh, and I totally buy all the heartburn = hair stuff. All my aunts except aunt Neety had crazy heartburn and we all came out with full heads of inch-long dark hair. Except cousin Kevin. He was bald, and Aunt Neety's son. You know, because that old wives tale it totes true. It has nothing to do with the fact that we're all part Indian.

I'm so tired!

If heartburn = hair then I'm birthing a gorilla.

eireyes

So I just realized that my 100 day countdown starts tomorrow, January 1 - kinda cool actually!

I'm so sad. I found the perfect, knee-high horsebit boots at a store about a month ago but I decided I was going to wait until Christmas to purchase it. Now I can't find it anywhere!

my biggest criteria were that the washer and dryer connections had be be on the correct sides. we have front loaders so washer has to go on the left and dryer on the right or the doors bang into eachother. you will not believe how many places are inverted.

So speaking of labor buddies... Anyone on this thread looking? I'm due 4/20 so would be good for someone due earlier in the month. I'd totally rather have someone I've gotten to know than a rando.... though Glen CoCo is a runner-up

michaelad3

I'm due 4/29, but it would definitely be nice to have a buddy from this thread

natpirt

So unlike many others on the board.... ALL my family is when 30 minutes of each other. So the one who lives 30 mins away wants to be the NYE host. Everyone thinks I am being an ass because I do not want to be driving me and my kids home at 2 in the morning pregnant and fighting a cold that has me coughing so hard I can't keep anything down.

I dont know why but the lb thread brings me back to middle school gym class...

The feeling of getting picked last?

Mamamonzo

When DH and I first started dating I used to be able to get what I wanted by saying "but I'm little" and he would cave instantly. I tried that old trick on him today and he said "have you looked in a mirror lately". Touché darling....touché

Went to Target to scope out clearanced Christmas candy and found a baby care cart on clearance for $12. I've been looking for something like this organize the CD stash as well as blankets and other things that won't go into her clothes dresser. So excited I found this for under $20. Score!!

It's almost 2014 and we are having babies in 2014!  Bring it on!

Just to confirm, you are supposed to eat the whole box of Annie's shells and cheddar, right?

Chocolate covered Oreos why must you be so accessible!!! (

I can't believe that tomorrow we'll be entering the year that all of our babies will be due! It's getting so close, y'all!!

I can't decide if I want to have a lb. I don't want to be left out but I also have a case of stranger danger and don't want to be giving my # out. Also if I'm texting someone can't I just bump as easily?

This. Although the stranger danger part doesn't bother me. I can't decide whether I want one or not! What if I get someone horrible?!

That's where all of us who have become friendly here could be pairing off so you know your person

This! I just want my LB to be active here in the RTT - you guys at least know my craziness and I know yours.  Plus, you all just crack me up  :x

Emily041285

@Sismama10 that's me too! I really can't decide.

There are some women on the pgal board who do it themselves, they do not tend to give updates I'm uh guessing that's because they are in labor, but it works.

How on earth am I going to make it to midnight to set off the ridiculously big firework rocket we got?? LOL. Its only 9:12 here!!

michaelad3

I'm worried that people will feel like I'm random. I read multiple times per day, but don't always have time to be included in the little conversations that happen, and then I just feel like an onlooker. I try to participate!
On another note, I'm so tired! I slept on the couch to try to avoid DH's plague, but my dog was completely crazy, running laps on the hard floors and throwing toys. I did not sleep well. Midnight seems very far away

edoliesmom

Just out of curiosity... Why are the ones who are saying they'd prefer someone who participates in this particular to be their labor buddy feel that way? This is maybe my fifth or sixth time commenting in this entire thread, but I would consider myself a regular outside of this thread. :-? I just get overwhelmed trying to keep up with this thread and feel like if I'm not checking it every five minutes that I'm completely out of the loop! It's hard to catch up.

tamaraaaa

I think the LB thing is kinda hard... I comment and add my two cents, and although I read daily I wouldn't consider myself a regular.  I know that makes me a less than ideal candidate, but really, there are only a handful that I would say are in every thread and always on here and they would probably pick each other because they talk so much.  It is what it is.  I'm hoping I'll randomly get someone awesome and I can force them to be my BFF for all of eternity...

katieharpiceland

To distract you from the LB stuff, here's me with the firework rocket for midnight. T- 2 hours.

tamaraaaa

For the second time, we've named the baby! Let's see if this one sticks.
:P


Also, today I spent A LOT of money at the quilt store.  I might have to open an etsy shop just to get rid of all of the crap I'm making...  While some clean and prepare a nursery for baby, I apparently craft up a storm.  Do I need most of it?  No.  Does this stop me?  Not in the slightest. 

mrscrcalli

Got some juice in the gas station on our road trip just now and the only words the Gas station lady says is " wow! you are VERY pregnant " ummmm fuck you very much, no one asked you to talk.

I don't want a random LB either. I have this weird thing with thinking people who haven't changed their avatar from the bump one aren't serious bumpies. Stupid, I know. I really want someone who is active on here!

Lol hahaha this is me exactly. I can tell who is a frequent poster by their avatar and definitely want someone that I recognize!

However I'm on mobile today so I don't think I can access PM until tomorrow or update my January siggy. Damn this New Years staycation got in the way of my bumping!
