    34 weeks 3 days. Getting real tired of DH's family telling me I don't even look pregnant unless they see me from the side. I know they think it's a compliment, but it's annoying hearing it every time I see them.

    I get told the same thing. I just smile, but I may start telling people that they can just stare at my ass then, if they want to. ;P

    Everyone looks awesome!  I'm having a pants-too-tight-I-feel-fat day and don't want to take a picture.  Happy HDBD to everyone.

    @SuzyQq02 Your natural hair color looks great on you.
    @hashtagrainbow I hope your doing well.  You look like you are in great spirits.

    Oh, and I'm loving the pictures of the outside babies.  Adorable!

    Happy HDBD ladies! Sorry I've been MIA. Back to reality & Chiberia after spending a couple weeks with the fam in sunny Florida. 


    Can't believe we now have mamas with outside "bumps" aka babies! Talk about a "shit just got real" moment! ;) You all look great & the F14 kiddos are too cute! Here's mine at 34w3d 
    Your bump is finally bigger than the girls...LOL!! Have you had a recent u/s done? Just wondering how big they think your LO is measuring!! You make my bump look like a giant...haha!! #PreggyEnvy

    i think its being jumped on more than it needed to. i completely agree that it can come off insensitive to those who have had premie's but i dont think the poster had those intentions (at least i hope not). as a NICU nurse, 37 weeks is term- its actually "early term" per anerican academy of pediatrics. sorry that my response was misunderstood.

    People made their disapproval clear, but no one "jumped on" her. No one was mean or nasty. Multiple posters told her why her two statements were inappropriate. This was no where near a flaming. If she was unitentionally insensitive, she does not get a pass. She needs to know why what she said was wrong and she needs to apologize.

    @RondackHiker Remind me to contact you when it's time to teach Squirt conflict resolution. DH and I were both the types to throw punches to settle playground arguments, and I feel the same impulse as an adult. I feel like you'd be a good person to get advice from when the time comes.

    There are definitely times punches have their place.

    I have said in the past (only once) that I want my LO to come early BUT then I realized that was wrong. I want LO to bake for a long time, if she comes early then that's what is to be-not because I want it. Then I retracted by saying that I'm just so excited to meet my little girl, that I wish Feb 23rd would get here already.
    I thought maybe that's what she meant, but I just reread the comments and I'm just like ~sigh~
    I don't post on here much, but when I do I'm always reading my words over and over so I don't offend anyone.

    I've spent more time at work telling people I'm pregnant... Not 6 or 7 months like they think. Their eyes light up when I say I'm almost 9 months pregnant...as in 36 weeks tomorrow! I'm like "dude... I've been here the whole time!" No one really noticed I guess lol. I came back from winter break and surprised everyone!

    You're 8 months pregnant and a little change. You won't be 9 months until 40 weeks.
    Ehhh I've seen it calculated a number of different ways. I feel as though I'm almost 9 months pregnant. One book I have actually says weeks 33-36 is month 9 and any time after that is considered "term". That's a bit of a stretch for me though.

    Hey @Happy2beDanish - not sure if it was an accident but, just so you know, what @megash113 said wasn't flag-worthy.

    37 weeks is full term. If she is feeling like she has had enough, then let her say it without being jumped on. the board is for support, should not be for judgement. ps everyone looks beautiful in their pictures :) home stretch!

    Full term is not the same as early term. You should know that as a NICU nurse.
    Making it to 37 weeks does NOT guarantee your baby is fully ready to be born. 37 weeks does not mean your baby would do perfectly on the outside and plans on just hanging  out in your womb for other 3 weeks just for the heck of it.  Wishing for your child to be born early is despicable to me.

    ETA: If it wasn't an accident, please read the "bullying vs snark" post at the top of the board.
    It was totally an accident, I didn't even know I did it. My apologies @megash113 !

    How many weeks are in a year? How many months are in a year?

    The answers are 52 and 12, not 52 and 13 or 48 and 12.

    Pregnancy is not 10 months long, unless it's a whole year of Februarys. Please be smart.

    It still doesn't change the fact that I've seen it calculated more than one way and yes, some of those ways consider 36 weeks the beginning of the 9th month. It's not about being smart. I am almost 9 months pregnant, just like I said initially. Thank you for the impromptu math lesson that didn't change a thing.
