...can't tell if I'm having gas pain from all of the cheese tortellini I had for dinner, or if it's cramps. The final few weeks of pregnancy sucks. What a mind fuck.

Story of my life the last couple of days!

I'm not really a practical joker, but I saw this salmon paste (WTF) at ikea that was in a toothpaste tube and thought it would be funny to relabel it and replace someones toothpaste with it.

Suddenly freezing cold and very uncomfortable cramping. I ate about 3 bites of dinner and don't even want ice cream.

You're in labor.

Actually I've been crampy all day too and CM is watery today and it's freaking me out that it's amniotic fluid just slowly dribbling out and I'm not having real contractions. Calling my doctor after I clean up from dinner. And by calling my doctor I mean starting a thread and asking a bunch of people on the internet what's happening in my ooters.

She cant know that for certain until she posts an "Am I in labor??????" thread.

I'm getting egg white CM, does that mean I can get pregnant on top of being pregnant? or even worse, that my baby girl can get pregnant? (I have actually seen this as a genuine question one...)

[whine start] Just went on my last dog walk until the boys get here. It took me like 15 min longer and I am in a ridiculous amount of pain. Ugh. [Whine over]

KatieGummow · April 2014

@mamrotu73‌ that is so funny he dislikes veggies that much!

Mine is soooo not food driven unless it is meat with nothing added to it. The only dog treats he will take is bully sticks and duck jerky. It's really annoying. But he works hard for that duck jerky!

I helped a friend out with one just by sending her a picture of my positive pregnancy test. That was enough effort for me.

My EDD is tomorrow. I think DH is planning on calling his Mom and telling her I'm in labor.... It'd be nice if it was for real and not a joke...

KatieGummow · April 2014

No jokes for me; I couldn't fathom being in my husband's shoes and having a super pregnant wife fake labor...nor do I have the energy for anything else after tidying up the house.

Lindsay808 · April 2014

DH has worked so much overtime to accumulate paid leave days for the baby.
Just thinking about me faking labor and having him come home for me to say "APRIL FOOLS!!!!" makes me hate myself a little bit.

fireflygirl12 · April 2014

@mamafantastic - tell me all about this no tearing thing. Did you do stretching/massage ahead of time?

kseccomb17 · April 2014

Quick question for other mamas with circumcised boys.. how was recovery for them? We're scheduled for it on Wednesday and i'm not sure what to expect.

I am not a cat person, but that cat genie litterbox looks AMAZING! I want to buy one just to give as a gift!

My mom has one for her four cats, and it's pretty awesome. Getting them to use it, at first, was kind of a pain, lol. No more litter cleaning, though, and it's a LOT quieter than those automatic sweeper ones. Had one of those once and wanted to throw the damn thing through the window every time my cat used it in the middle of the night. >.<

I really love my porn star boobs right now. I'm going to BF until my kid goes to college if it means I get to keep these puppies!!

Ok I'm joking....

Maybe half joking....

BiggerinRealLife · April 2014

@LoriMc12 I can't look at your siggy without seeing a drag queen now.

Same. With DS1 I went to from a B to a DD with cleavage galore. I had to quit breastfeeding when I was about 10 weeks KU with #2 and my boobs went down 3 full cup sizes in just a few weeks. Talk about depressing. They FINALLY started growing again around 8 months and I'm so excited!

Go Bees Go!

mrscrcalli · April 2014

Sooooo in the last hour my hands and feet have "professor clumped" they are giant and I don't know if it was all the MSG and salt from the Thai food orrrrrr.... :-/

I know but I mean is her true identity this chick?

Better not be! if GC isn't a RTTer I'm going to be gutted!

pineconey · April 2014

Feeling better- mixed feelings about that. LO has been moving in insane amounts all night.

Bluebird2318 · April 2014

Holy balls! It's our month over on the east coast!

Bees Everywhere · April 2014

Ahhmygosh that took forever.

Thanks so much for the crossed fingers, ladies! Not amniotic fluid, but the nurse was really nice saying I did the right thing coming in. LO is doing well too and moving a ton. Definitely good news, thanks for the thoughts, A14 is the best.

On the other hand, cervix is still locked up tighter than Ft. Knox. Baby Girl and I are going to have to have a talk about getting things going SOON.

OH and a certain DH fell asleep without his phone by him...Good thing this wasn't the real deal or I wouldn't find it so funny.

edit: Woo it's officially April now!!

MadBloom · April 2014

Well I think my months of bragging to friends and family about how easy my pregnancy has been is coming back to bite me in the ass. Holy hip pain!!! Unreal!

kseccomb17 · April 2014

DH was snuggling Gavin on the couch and he said "I can't believe he fit in your belly. Women are amazing." Gahh, my heart melted :x

Has anyone heard from @LittleLady77? I keep hoping to see an update from her.

Luke got his done last Tuesday. It took maybe 3 days to look normal! We did the after care for 5 days they told us 4. He seemed fine the whole time. He screams during changes anyway so it was hard to tell. He never needed pain meds or anything.

There was lots of peeing on us because we were scared to cover it up while changing him!

Mamamonzo · April 2014

I know I could look this up but venturing out for research scares me!

PP bleeding: I'm three weeks out. I've had very very light bleeding since we left the hospital. I made the move to panty liners on Thursday and they were totally dry I didn't wear anything Sunday. Today all of a sudden I had a huge gush of blood. I've been bleeding like first day heavy flow since this afternoon. Is it common for it to pretty much be done and then come back full force??

knotty-girl · April 2014

Just bought myself some cute heather grey with satin trim nursing PJs with matching robe for in the hospital (and after). When they arrive I'll pack my hospital bag.

Are you being more active?

BiggerinRealLife · April 2014

@avidkeo‌ What's "gutted" mean?

@KatieGummow I've been thinking of all three of my California girls lately! I hope all is well with you, @LittleLady77 and @poru!

I had my first two noticeable BH's today! One in the morning, and one just now! MY UTE IS NOT AN UNDERACHEIVER!!!

Yay for being woken up by something acidic in my throat. Now it hurts so bad.

This is why I'm up right now too. DH made a joke before I went to bed about how he predicted I would go into labor at 3AM today. Well, it's 3AM but I'm not having contractions, just more of this acid reflux crap.

JessieAlbin · April 2014

Woke up to a super intense contraction, and then just reflux and generally achey. Nothing I can time, and I can't get back to sleep. Kiddo, mom is not amused by your April Fool's behavior. :-w

Mamamonzo · April 2014

@kseccomb17‌ I don't think so. Not anymore active than I have been. The only difference yesterday was, I carries his car seat to and from the car and attached it to the stroller.

Same exact thing happened to me with DD. Idk if it's normal, but it was embarrassing to be out and soak through my jeans.

Oh I finally used a kiwiism! We say gutted to mean bummed/disappointed. Though you guys used it too! Haha guess not.

Glad to hear your uterus is playing ball! Can it talk to mine!!

I'm getting there... When I hit 36 weeks, BAM, extra pelvic pain. I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow and BAM, heartburn is back. So happy to still be pregnant, but damn am I feeling it.
