You WILL do this. It'll be like second nature to you. And you won't give a single fuck who sees you do it.

Ok, can we play: Baby or Braxton Hicks? Because I have no idea what I'm feeling. As far as I know I haven't had BH contractions yet. But every now and then I get these really jarring blows down low, several times in a row. I've likened it to the baby trying to kick the bottom out of the boat. But it's less of a kick or jab in a specific place, and more of a jar to my cervix. Kind of feels like the pulsing I get from an orgasm, but way less fun. I didn't think this was BH because it's not my whole uterus, and I don't feel anything particularly rigid around my ute, which is how I've seen BH described. Could it just be the baby throwing itself against my cervix? So what do you think: baby or BH? TIA!

It's baby ninja kicking/punching you in the cervix. Fun, right!  :P

It's baby. BH feels like baby is trying to push its way out like John Hurt in Alien, with all 4 limbs splayed out in a starfish position at the same time (ie it feels like your whole stomach tenses up out of nowhere, or a lot of pressure all over your belly).

Ok! Baby it is! Thanks to all who played! Sets my FTM mind at ease.

I need a new foundation. For those that wear it - do you recommend any?

I use physicians formula compact powder right now and I like it a lot. It helps to have a good brush to apply it. I used to wear bare minerals and I loved it but it's expensive. Then I tried Mary Kay's loose mineral powder and wasn't impressed. PF is my alternate since I can't get the bare minerals right now.

E.L.F.'s mineral makeup line is just as good (to me) if not better than the Bare Minerals, and 1/10 the price! If I remember correctly all of the products are $3 a piece for a good sized pot, and the brushes are pretty inexpensive. The rest of their basic stuff is only $1 each. Andplusalso I highly recommend their primer...best. stuff. EVER. And the "High Def powder" is amazeballs for setting your makeup for the day, controlling shine, and keeping your face near flawless all day. LOVE their products!

https://www.eyeslipsface.com

Seriously. Check them out. I've bought a frickin makeup artist's amount of shit in one sitting and have never spent more than $30 in a single transaction.

All of my brushes and primer is E.L.F I haven't tried their mineral foundation though. I do love their products.

I need some ladies who wanna join to message me their names/emails or something so I can add them to the group...it won't let me create a group without people to put in it LOL

Fucking peer pressure LOL! Just PM'd you

Welcome to the Dark Side.

How many people are going to do this, and does that mean this thread will be not as fun because everyone will be over there?

Of course this thread will still be fun! We just have somewhere else to talk and get to know each other on a more personal level; especially after our LOs are here.

Wait sooo… has the FB group been started yet? 

ETA: disregard!

Ok so TMI question....has anyone's urine changed? Like has it changed and become foamy or bubbly? I have never had this but the last two days it has and it is starting to freak me out. I have been worried about pre-e and GD so this new change is really freaking me out.

If I join the FB group I will abandon TB. It happened last time too. And we didn't start the FB group until after all the babies were born and we still had several issues with lunatics.
So for now, I'm skipping it. We'll see what happens later.

Thank god! I thought I was the only one and was going to be left alone on RTT

Me too. I can only play on one site at a time and I'm still loving the RTT!

UGH, now I'm torn. I want to be one big happy family!!

Painting a room is quite the work out. My abs and my arms are so tired. I'll be glad when this is done. I've pretty much had to take on the task alone because DH only helps one day a week and we hardly get anything done. I've worked on it alone for three days and it's almost finished.

My thoughts exactly! I don't want to be left out if there is a RTT Facebook group, but I love what we have going on here. The RTT is my sanity saver most days

So... I don't recognize like half the names in HDBD. I know I haven't been on as much lately and it's no big deal. but I'm just trying to figure out if I missed stuff or there's more new people?

there have seem to be a lot of randoms that pop in just to AW their bumps on Wednesdays.

Ladies-my mom is asking if she can send e-vites for my shower instead of mailed invitations...like I have a clue! is that tacky?

Yay or nay on e-vites? Thanks!

I don't think e-vites are tacky... I don't know 99% of peoples addresses lol

Edit: vites not bites

BUT the pretzel M&Ms are only 150 calories and 5 grams of fat for the whole bag - way less than the PB ones, which are my next favorite. You are making the better choice

Whenever Im in destination maternity or motherhood and they try to sell me the stretch mark cream I want to tell them that they are full of shit, it's genetic and they should feel bad trying to scam pregnant women!!

But I don't I just smile and say no thank you...

There are a lot of new people, but every week people who never post anywhere else magically appear in the HDBD thread.

Whenever I'm on Pinterest, if a recipe is named "skinny," I automatically roll my eyes and keep scrolling right now by.

P.S. I have no idea why everything is underlined...

I've had such a crazy week so far. I am in sales and have been running around the city all day every day. EVERYTHING hurts. How am I going to get through 3 more months? I'm so achy that I am not even looking forward to yoga tonight.

Has anyone else been waking up really hot and sweaty? We keep our temp the same every night and the past few nights I've woken up feeling disgusting.

This has been me my whole pregnancy. Usually I am FREEZING at night, but I now sleep on the side of the bed closest to the window with the window wide open every night. DH has 2 extra blankets because he says it's so cold in our room.

I feel like a total brat ignoring all the new posts. I could easily chime in or answer questions but I feel weird since I don't know these people.

I'm sticking with here. I have no FaceBook. I'm still clinging to 2000, before it was a thing.

So many new people!!! Sometimes even on RTT I'm like whaaa?? Whoooo?? So weird in 3rd tri to join a board where we've all been in a relationship for 5 months.
I feel naked and violated in front of strangers.. /:)
