FFFC: I know some women think they are a perk, but I hate my gigantic pregnancy boobs. I never liked them from the begining. They start under my armpits and smother me when I sleep. Can't wait to put my b-cup bras back into regular rotation!
I'm with you on this one, and I would kill for b-cup boobs! I have a love/hate relationship with my boobs to begin with, and I am dreading the potential for them to get even bigger! I'm a small D normally, and I'm a large DD at this point. Both my mom and sister went up TWO sizes after their kids were born, and that freaks me the hell out. (What size would I be then, I don's even know?!) :-SS
Luckily (or not) I don't have a small frame to begin with so that helps to minimize the massive hooters, but UGH.
I purposely didn't ask DScookiesare about Vday because I was afraid they would say that he should bring Valentine's for his classmates. I CAN'T IMAGINE making 15 kid Valentines! I feel like I should have till at least Kindergarten to plead ignorance... right? Poor kid might be the only one without something to hand out. Hoping he doesn't notice...
I'm not looking forward to school when we have to make cupcakes or cookies for our LOs birthdays. I hope that trend died out since allergies are apparently rampant these days.

I was a D cup to begin with, now I'm a fucking F cup. F!!
My husband is not a boob man even, so they weird him out almost as much as they weird me out. They sit on my belly when I bend over, eeriest feeling ever.
I hate it when pregnant women made twin comments, especially on the bump. Like "I swear it's not twins" or "zomg, some asshole asked if I was sure it wasn't twins." It makes me cringe and then want to punch you.
I am fairly confident it is due to my inability to look like I am carrying twins which means (to me) that I am unable to provide my children with room to grow and I am already failing as a mom. So this confession is me just being really sensitive. I am sure if I was carrying a singleton and someone said that to me, I would brag--*I mean*--complain about it on here too.

I started at an H! I'm currently wearing J and am so not looking forward to anything more. The rest of my body is an average size, someday I'm going to snap in half because of my boobs.
@KatieGummow - I totally get it. It's hard when you feel like you aren't showing as much as you "should be". I have a long torso and was chunky to begin with, but it still hurts when people are surprised that I'm pregnant or make comments of "I don't even see a bump!". Not. Helpful.

Thanks for the sympathy Ithink you look pregnant and amazing!
DH took DS out to play in the snow and I got the camera to take pictures but only stayed out there a few minutes because I was "cold and my jacket doesn't cover my belly". Really I just wanted to eat the stash of sweet potato chips I had hidden and read Gone Girl. It was awesome.

I am right there with you. Our DC provider made a passing comment about exchanging cards as I was picking DS up yesterday. I know they have been making valentines all week, though when I questioned DS about it, he told me he just made them for Daddy and I (we brought them home yesterday, so I know this is true). I was not going to make a special run to the store the night before valentines to pick up cards so DS went empty handed.

I can understand that. I don't think people realize how insensitive twin comments can be. I was at my OB's office, and scheduling my anatomy scan for 18 weeks when the receptionist said "I know this is a silly question, but are you carrying twins? I need to know so I can schedule enough time for your ultrasound." This was about 5 minutes after I found out we had lost one of the twins. I understand that she had to ask the question, but the wording was horrible.

The school my kids go to they only allow store bought treats! No having to make crap!
Mom to 10 year old DS and 7 year old DD. Twin girls coming soon!
I am NOT looking forward to my shower tomorrow! I'm all depressed because I can't even enjoy the food and dessert and I think I'm going to get a bunch of fucking clothes. I know I sound ungrateful but I know my DH had to drop a lot of money on this stupid ass shower (another reason I don't even want to go cause I'm super pissed about that too) and I would much rather just go buy the crap I need instead of seeing a bunch of people I don't want to see and act all happy and shit. Wow! That was longer than I expected it to be.

My DS has never had any kind of sweets, so I have no shame about eating them in front of him. Today I ate a whole bag of Hersheys Kisses in front of him and he wanted to try one. I told him they were special mommy food that will make baby brother grow strong and healthy, and that he could have a snack made for little boys, like grapes. He was thrilled with his grapes. I might never let him in on the chocolate secret.
I just read on my FB feed that someone won't take their 4 year old out in the snow because they are too little/not old enough...my Second FFFC I had DS in a snow suit playing in the snow when he was crawling- and I think that women is a freaking idiot.

I did something really childish and don't feel that bad. I told my MIL she couldn't have two lousy slices of my bread. In all fairness, we had a huge blowout yesterday and I'm still upset about it. That's the only reason I denied her.

She just needs to admit SHE doesn't want to go out.
Tell her it is FFFC.

DH will cry and pitch a fit, but I give no fucks. There will be a breast reduction in my future. Give me Cs!
I have wanted a reduction since high school but figured they'd just grow again when I got pregnant. My mom had actually offered to look into if her insurance would cover it! Sweet mum. She knew how depressed and self conscious they made me.
I'm typically a DD (5'6") and at the moment I'm DDD! DH thinks its wonderful. But when I'm done having babies and I can afford it I'm getting a reduction!

Make? No. They sell them in boxes of 24 for $2. Don't make them, they just end up in the garbage before the end of the day anyway.
I think Parents who make valentines for their kids need to Get a hobby. Go buy some conversation hearts or super hero valentines at cvs and call it a day.
I hope it's just a Pinterest thing with these stupid sayings and worthless goodies but I'm seeing it on my FB feed too. Clearly more for the mom than the kid.

I am not Betty Crocker, nor do I pretend to be. Our local grocery store sells buckets of cookies (like 3 dozen) for about $6. I send those in for birthday treats.

I hope I can make treats to send to school! I loooove baking and if I can't do that for school birthday treats, I will be crazy sad. My mom always did this for us, and I loved it! Another bonus for having an April baby - birthdays in school!

Oh my gosh, I am so sorry. I couldn't imagine! You're so strong.
I love celebrating the little holidays by doing LITTLE things with DD! My parents always bought me something small for Valentines (little chocolates, a balloon, funny socks, etc) and still do (Sbux cards and chocolate FTW!), and I loooooved going to the store each year and picking out my cheapie class Valentines and making doily cards for my grandparents.
But, uggggggggg, WHY ALL THE PINTEREST SHIT NOW???? My IG feed has been bombed with extravagant class valentines and heart-themed Valentines breakfasts. I get going all out on some things, but every tiny holiday and event? Kids are going to grow up expecting a three ring circus every time they take a shit.

Maybe being mini-Marthas is their hobby?

I saw it, rolled my eyes, and decided I'd rather make macaroni than poke it.

Nope. I know where she's coming from (probably cuz I know a bit more of the back story than what was said here) and I am on her side on this.
Yup, we're missing backstory. I am on her side as well.
My mom is a Martha Stewart wannabe and has always overdone every holiday, birthday, whatever. In fact she called me this morning upset because she couldn't send out our Valentine's gifts because of the weather. (She's in NJ). She even made the lo something.
My FFFC: I pretend to excited over the packaging just so she'll keep sending the gift cards usually inside.
Second FFFC: I have every intention of getting her to make all the treats I have to send to school and claim all the credit for her cute ideas!
