I had a super graphic lesbian dream last night. Like, whoa. Come to think of it...any sex dreams I've had this pregnancy have been lesbian ones...

I had a dream two nights ago that I was starting my first day of college and just moving into the dorm and I hooked up with another girl. I never have in real life, but now I feel like I really missed out on something. 

You have

Second random thing of my day - I was talking to a little girl before church this morning.

Girl: When are you getting your baby? (fairly certain she doesn't understand pregnancy haha)

Me: She'll come this summer!

Girl: What color is her hair?

Me: Well, we're not sure yet...odds are good that it will be brown.

Girl: What color are her eyes?
Me: We don't know that either, but maybe they'll be green or brown!

Girl: What does she look like?
Me: She's inside still! We don't know what she looks like.

Girl: ...INSIDE?! So have you seen her teeth? Like with an inside camera?

Gotta love kids.

I've been really thinking about DH and I drafting up a Will now that we are expecting a child. I hate talking about things like us not being around for our little man but I want to make sure he's taken care of if the worst should happen.

I'm irrationally afraid to put anything on paper because I'm scared writing it out will somehow make it happen. Crazytown, population: me.

I'm in the same boat, it sucks having this conversation. We bumped up our life insurance as well. xoxoxo

@JP27 and @LiteraChick, it totally sucks having to think about bad things happening, but it is absolutely the best thing you can do, especially with a baby coming!  Not having a will can cause such an unnecessary mess later and can really tear apart families, and you definitely want to make sure your baby is taken care of in the best way possible!

I am a horrible lawyer because I STILL don't have a will (I think every adult should have one, even before you have a baby), but when DH gets back we are supposed to work on one.  

Yeah SO and I still need to get out wills together as well as I need to finish my living will/power of attorney so that he would have rights should the hospital need consent if anything should happen to me. It's not that I think my parents would leave him out of any of those decisions, but we're in Michigan and they're in Florida so logistically it would just make sense as well. 

I agree it's just really weird to have to think about it all, especially since my family just recently finished dealing with all the stuff surrounding my grandma's will.

(Quote box hell?)
Thanks guys, that actually makes me feel better. I think I also have irrational fears because whatever was in my grandpas will completely tore my fathers family apart. I have 2 uncles I haven't seen in a decade because everybody is pissed off about whatever the will said. Weird, but you're right I am actually going to talk to DH now before I chicken out.

Why are so many people suggesting that? Lol

We had a boy name all set, Oliver.

Apparently everybody then assumes that Olivia would be a great name for this one.

Except it usually leads to the conversation where I have to explain that if they next kid is a boy, he will be Oliver.

Occasionally some one doesn't see the problem with an Oliver and an Olivia and I spend 30 seconds looking at them like they are an idiot before moving on.

Or they then exclaim "you're having more then one kid?!?! But this pregnancy has been SO rough." And then they look at me like I'm crazy.

If we weren't having such a difficult time agreeing on a girl name I would probably find it funny.

I just watched my dog roll down the stairs. She was sitting on the top step and we had the baby gate closed (the stairs lead into the master suite and we were all up there). I opened the gate and sometimes it sticks so makes a loud noise when it unsticks. The noise startled her and she jumped which caused her to roll down the entire flight. She got up right away and ran off (I'm sure my pregnant ass screaming down the stairs behind her didn't help). She seems to be ok, but holy crap it was scary.

DH just felt baby girl (still unnamed) kick for the first time. I am elated! :x

So I've been offline almost all weekend because within two days we got three offers on our house and we are currently under contract and set to close on April 17! The offer we accepted was only $3K under asking and she wanted our fridge. So, hey keep the fridge. And now I get a fancy new fridge! Wahoo!

Ylvelill

Gratz in new fridge!

We just picked up the Chicco travel system we wanted and an extra base for over 50% the normal price and I am so excited! A girl posted it on local FB garage sale page and it's in almost perfect condition, except you can tell from the wheels that it's been wheeled around. I was going to go with an cheaper option until I saw the post pop up!

@helloblueeyes‌ totally get it. Has anyone else had a turtle on their back moment? I legit couldn't roll out of the bed after my nap. We have a memory foam bed and it seems if I lay too long on my back it's going to be a workout to get up lmao Edit: extra word

We have memory foam too and I pretty much always feel like a turtle when I try to get up these days!

Hehe took me a sec to figure out what the f/u scan meant.

Hope everything goes well!

eortman

It's 2:30 in the morning. It would really be nice if I could go to sleep now :-( Working a 10 hr day on less than 3 hours sleep does not sound appealing.

The leaking boob thing can stop now, plzthx

2 more days until we get to see LittleDude for his f/u Ultrasound. He was perfect as can be a month ago during the A/S but they were unable to get him into a good enough position to check on his heart so we are going back in as a precaution.

As I was born with a heart arrhythmia I'm a wee bit nervous, but I'm staying optimistic. I just really want to see him and how big he has gotten since then! I hope he kicks the hell out of me during the scan so I can try and distinguish a foot kick and a fist punch

Keep us updated and have a good appointment!

I'm going to kill my husband.

He found out the asbestos material in the house we put an offer on MIGHT POSSIBLY BE (no 100% here, at all) in the attic insulation and now all of a sudden he wants to completely walk away. WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS SHIT. We have to be out of our rental May 31st. Even at this point we can't close until the end of April. If we purchase any house that needs work before move in that means we have to do this NOW. 

This happened once before. A house I really liked and was ready to put an offer in happened to have some galvanized pipes and he was done with it. WTF? At our price point we cannot afford to be picky.

So.. I might be living in a box before this is over guys.

Ugh! That sucks!!! Is there an insepction that could confirm or deny the asbestos?

I made peanut butter rice krispie treats with chocolate on top because we ate dinner at my neighbors last night.  I had intended on cutting up half the 13x9 pan and leaving half at home but couldn't because the chocolate wasn't set when it was time to leave.  Now I have none at home and it makes me very very sad .  It's making me drool just thinking about that rice krispie goodness.

I know what I'm making tonight. Those sound amazing.

My regular checkup is today. I had DH order me an extra scoop of hot salsa on my rice bowl last night at chipolte so I could poop today and maybe weigh less. Im not ashamed.

I'm hoping that the toast and peanut butter I just ate doesn't go straight through my gut like everything else I've eaten in the last four days. Stomach bugs are so much worse when you're pregnant, and this mama does not want another IV stuck in her!

Obviously, this whole time I've KNOWN I've been pregnant but for some reason this weekend all of a sudden I got wigged out because I realized there was a human being living inside of me. It took me 5 minutes to remove my eyebrows from my hairline.

I can't wait to meet this kid.

Make more. I can't even make krispie treats to take to other people, I'm selfish and want them all.

I know this feeling all too well! Haha it's funny how it's all exciting at first and then suddenly you're like wait a second......this shit is for real. This is not a fire drill people.

My random

Last night, in bed, DW and I were talking and I got super excited because I realized that on Friday, I'd be 25 weeks. That's only 5 weeks away from 30 weeks! Which is only 10 weeks from 40 weeks! Then I started to make a mental and irrational worry list about everything bad that could happen from now til then. Then I cried because I got so worried. Then DW held me til I fell asleep.

TugboatSheila

@jensavicci, @literachick and @mrscurlygurl: haha glad I'm not the only one. 

It's totally true that you can be cruising along and then something hits you and you're faced with the reality of (as Jen put it) "this is not a drill!"

I had a major moment Saturday when I realized that was exactly 4 months from my due date. I need to get educated on birth, I'm so glad we have our prenatal classes next month.

runrinserepeat

I've been feeling kinda crumby for the last few weeks. I don't think I've had any BH contrax, but the cramping is really starting to bother me. IDK why I'm so worried about all of this so much this time around - I feel like I was much more relaxed with DD. I'll be relieved when I make it to Friday (v-day), and I can't freaking wait to talk to my doctor on the 31.
