@LiteraChick a newborn session gone wrong...who knows my friend sent me this as I'm having my first son after 3 girls and told me this may happen when she does my newbie session.

Ohhhhhh. I was thinking it was a kooky foreign marketing stock photo or something.

I'd be so proud if my son did that, that pic would be on our Christmas cards.


I should post the ultrasound photo of my son giving THE finger after being pinned so they could look at his heart. Omg. I died. Lol

Excuse my language, but....

MOTHERFUCKING FUCKITY FUCK. Sometimes I just hate the people I work with. I work in an office at a University and pretty much run the department. I put a sign on my door that says, "closed for lunch", I am sitting at my desk watching Chicago PD and stuffing my face with spaghetti and people start coming in. Before long I have 6 people hanging out in my office talking to each other and over my tv show. I have faculty members asking me questions. I have grad students asking me questions. I delegated something to my GTA and he is filling out a form and for every single box he is asking me what to put in it. Uhhh, I could have done it myself by now!! Shut up! So, now it is 20 mins after my lunch break is supposed to end and my 40 min show is still not over. I am pissed and extremely happy that I am turning in my notice at the end of this month. Self centered, disrespectful bastards. 

And that was a love it of support, Zarkarella.  I can relate- before I left the FT gig, my office at the university where I teach was glass on all sides and next to the main door of the building.  It was atrocious.  

They just walk right on past that closed sign, don't they? No one gets that I AM NOT GETTING PAID during the lunch hour. If someone wants to give me $14, then I will talk to them during lunch. 

Sadly, my door was key-card access only, so faculty could traipse right in, but the students would just stand there and pound and pound and pound- even if I shook my head no, or put up a sign.  I teach on weekends too and I would have strangers whack on the glass that faced the outside wanting me to come out and give them directions, or even worse, a TOUR of the freaking building.  One day my boss came down to drop something on my desk and was shocked to find me sitting underneath it- I just HAD to have a minute of peace!

Sometimes I stop in the middle of whatever I'm doing and think "damn......I'm about to have 4 kids. When the heck did this happen. Wasn't I just 18?"

I am pretty sure my baby is working on her parkour skills right now. Crazy random kicks and jabs all over the place. It's cute, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to pee myself.

Where the hell is my pizza?! They said 45 minutes and its been more than that. Don't they know I'm really hungry?

Just cause.

Perhaps I'm being impatient but my impatience is at least somewhat warranted I think... I didn't see the need for a SS post about this because it really is a mini vent. So random board here ya go!

I posted a coupleweeks ago about LO's soft marker for DS that showed up in my A/S (echogenic intracardiac focus--mineral deposit in her heart) and that I went ahead with a quad marker screen just for my own sanity of knowing even though one soft marker is not usually a big sign of an abnormality. Well I had my monthly check up today and the freaking results were not in yet. I'm with kaiser and labs are always quick but for prenatal screening, all ob's outsource to a labs for state of California as part of a prenatal screening program. Needless to say it's their fault not kaiser's that I'm anxiety ridden even more now and just want an answer! Sorry for the run on sentences and what not, but ughhhh! I just need to know so I can rest my mind!!

@literachick - hope everything falls into place for you guys!

@literachick that is so awesome!! I'm smiling big for you. Praying everything falls into place. Hugs!

It drives me nuts when people come on here legitimately looking for medical answers, not just opinions and other people's experiences. I mean, how am I supposed to know if you have a real issue or not?! Even the littlest symptoms can mean something big, so call your doctor if you're actually concerned. Agh.

Lately I am constantly hungry. I am eating at least every 2 hours and my full meals (not snacks) are a lot more food than usual. Is anyone else going this suddenly? Is little man going through a growth spurt & causing this? Or is it totally normal & something that will continue?

abchittam

I had forgotten how amazing baby kicks are. The kicks have become so much stronger in the past couple of days alone. I am completely and totally in love with my baby girl in a whole new way! :x

I don't have any advice, but I've been hungry constantly too! I zipped up my lunchbox yesterday after eating my entire meal and was still pretty hungry. I can't seem to get enough food, even with my extra snacks and bigger meals.

Bad husband dreams suck now I am gonna be grumpy at him all day for something he would never really do!

I have days like this where I can't seem to stop eating because I'm so hungry all the time (most days), and other days where I'm not very hungry and I somehow forget to eat (who does that?!). The days where I'm not very hungry are relieving in the sense that I don't have to keep trying to think of things to eat between meals, but also stressful because then I'm like "why am I not hungry?! Is the baby ok?!"

dobbyisfree

I want my baby to have a mohawk. We are team green but everyone is convinced by the pictures its a boy. Apparently it has a boys face? Weirdos.

Im ridiculously stressed out lately because of a situation at work i cant even really talk about. All i can think is I hope karma is real because this horrible terrible poisonous girl is going to get whats coming to her.

Most of you may have never known about a missing person's case in TN. Holly Bobo disappeared from her home in 2011 and has not been seen since. She was 20 years old and her parents have never given up hope that she would be returned safely. On Wednesday a grand jury handed down an indictment of especially aggravated kidnapping and felony murder in the first degree in the perpetration of the kidnapping to file charges against Zachary Adams. It was a heartbreaking blow to her family and the community. My anxiety has been in major overdrive since Tuesday as I consider that mother's grief. I hate letting Evie out of my sight for a minute. I wish I could have a Xanax to take the edge off!

Also, our house was on the market for 30 minutes yesterday before we got a call from a realtor wanting to show it!

AutumnBonfire

I have my anatomy scan this afternoon. We're not finding out the sex, but a little part of me hopes that the tech messes up and forgets to tell us to turn our heads or says it out loud or something.

Anyone have anything fun planned this weekend? I really need something to do to make the weekend fly by. We have our anatomy scan Monday morning. And I've already had my NT scan, blood work to screen for problems - everything was normal, but for some reason I'm still really anxious. I have no clue why. I can feel him move everyday. Oh, and I know it's a "him" from the blood test, but still. For the last couple of weeks I've just had this uneasy feeling that I can't shake. I've also been having consistent dreams that it's a girl even though I KNOW it's a boy. Anyway, I just want to see him. I want to see him kick and move and I just want to see him. To settle my mind.

EEEE! I'm so excited for you!!!! But keep in mind, we all get super nervous right before an appt. I am the same way, I keep finding things to be worried about but I'm sure he is a healthy lil' bugger. I hope he gives a good performance for you and does something super kyoot.

I have a girl's night tomorrow night, which used to mean dinner, dancing, drinking and clubbing in Seattle but now that we are all old married (and very pregnant) it's mani/pedis and then dinner. It's been awhile since we all got together so I'm pumped for it. And I'm making my own onesies this weekend with the iron on printouts you can make yourself at home. Will post later ♥♥♥


Thank you have fun with your girlies! I'm totes jelly!

I'm loling at August 14's reaction @aliletz's call out. 

While I understand if they don't care, I don't think that was something to get their panties in a wad about. It definitely wasn't "bringing our drama there" like some of them were trying to make it seem.

Did I miss something?

TugboatSheila

Our internet went out so I went to McDonald's and worked the entire day there using their wifi

Fun fact: the breakfast crowd is far more crotchety than the lunch crowd.

 I told dh last night that I've been so excited about finding out the sex at our a/s on Monday that I haven't been so stressed about the actual scan. He was confused. Apparently he thought the 20 week scan was just to tell the sex! Poor guy lol

MonkeyJD

Just found out today that I have an anterior placenta. I did not know that. It makes me feel a little better because now I know why DH hasn't been able to feel any kicks.

Also, I feel totally inept at crafts :-( I want to learn to do something... crochet/knit/cross stitch...but all the books I read appear to be written in Chinese. *sigh* I'm going to have to find a class or something.

If DW doesn't come home with Wendy's tonight like I asked, I'll just have her soul for dinner.

ETA: reread that back to myself. Realized I am indeed a psycho.

No shit. I'm sick of the whole funnibunni drama anyway. I started my first official post it though and she was #1 on there. I don't like lazy, whiny and excuse filled people. Especially when they are bad liars and give off the PuppyKicker vibe.

MOVING ON.....

Isn't this adorbs?

-------------------------
I'm not gonna lie. I saw how long the funnibunni thread was and I gave up 2 sentences in.

But I did hear negatives things about it and I'm shocked it would come from funnibunni

No, she wasn't negative. I was getting pretty pissed off at her though. Long story short, I think she is full of shit about her intentions towards rehabbing the dog and plans to stay as lazy as possible. Accountability is something I take seriously. I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt but her story doesn't add up. I've never had a problem with anyone on here but her fake cheerfulness rubs me the wrong way. She annoys me anyway, so I'm not participating in that clusterfuck anymore. There are a thousand other chicks I can be friends with!

----------------------------
Oops, I mixed up that kicking dog situation that the katie girl posted yesterday (which turned out to be a poor choice of words) with the funnibunni thread. Hm, Let me catch up on it.

ETA: after reading the dreadfully long OP, it sounds like they don't need to be handling dogs period. Just because one is harder to handle than the others, doesn't mean to treat it any less important and start referring to it as DH's Dog and ETC. Also, don't be surprised that you have a dog that's hard to care for when you don't take the necessary steps to care for it properly to begin with.

I don't feel like reading any more of it -_- so long.
