1. I'm with you @saisongbird. The last several nights I've had cramping/mild contractions for about an hour before going to bed, then nothing. Get with it uterus.
2. This weekend my sister and 4 month old nephew were here. I was pushing him in his stroller at the outlet mall and a salesperson had the audacity to say, "wow they'll be close in age". To which I said, "they are cousins". Then she tried to back track. But wow, that was a bold thing to say. I should've just said yeah 4 months apart and let her think about that. My belly is clearly bigger than 4-5 months pregnant douche. People need to keep their mouths shut. Sheesh.
Nausea can bite me! And I cracked a tooth... Dentist doesn't want to fill it until after baby, so I have to be super careful between now and May when I finally will have this filled... Yikes
everything hurts, but I swear if my boobs get any bigger I am just going to be one big set of sweater puppies. So far I have gone from a 34DDD to a 36G and right now that seems like it might be too small. My back is KILLING ME. These had better go back down after all this shenanigans.
Also Hi first tri puking. Really missed you. So glad you could stop in for a quick visit before this whole thing is over.
two more weeks, two more weeks, two more weeks....
Pp bleeding...I'm over the ginormous pads. I hate pads to begin with, I never feel clean when I wear them. Also breast pads are annoying. So I guess my bitch is really about pads haha.
I'm bitchy because my appt. was scheduled for 10:15. I was just told she still has 2 people to see before me. I schedule morning appt. for a reason. I will be damned if she tries to rush me through.
I'm 5 days PP . My work told me they would put me on a temp lay off so I could still get paid while I'm out for 7 weeks . I called this morning to get everything set up and my boss informed me that they couldn't pay me bc the company had reached their max . I've already been ugly PP crying all morning and this just made it worse I didn't think I would have to stress about money while I was out ! (

I'm grouchy today and want to do NOTHING until this baby comes. I'm also bored and tired of waiting. It's hard to be an end-of-the-month-er and see all the outside babies! I really want LO to cook as long as he needs to, but I'm at that impatient and over excited point where I am sooo tempted to go eat spicy foods, take a jog, etc to get things moving...but then I watched BOBB yesterday and saw some preemies and that scared me back to reality. 18 days til my DD seems really soon, and I feel like LO should be done cooking, but who knows how accurate that DD really truly is! he might really need the next few weeks. I just have got to calm down and keep my excitement under control.

I'm so sorry. Did you have any of this in writing?
RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me. You made my wedding day complete.
I'm in the camp of still pregnant. Either 39 or 40wks today, depending which Dr I go by.... Instead of dwelling on that I'm going to go to lunch with a friend and then spend $30 of Kohl's cash
This morning at my appointment my Dr all of a sudden starts making comments about baby's size. Even though the last two weeks I've been 1cm behind my week of pregnancy. Apparently today it was high enough that he ordered a growth scan & offered to induce me on Monday.
I want an outside baby, but I want her to come on her own time! And I feel like a growth ultrasound is kind of a big leap for having one week of measuring ahead on my fundal height.
The past few days pain has gone from not that bad to sore pretty much all the time :-/ Sore when I sit, sore when I stand, sore when I walk, sore when I lay down -- the only difference is what part of me hurts.
I'm 2 days from my EDD and still feel like nothing is really happening. The baby got a lot lower about a week ago (although no one has used the term "drop") and I admit I got my hopes up, but nothing has really happened since. Even the BH contractions I was having earlier in the week seem to be happening less now than they were before. I'm starting to feel like I'll probably be late and feel a bit depressed about it, especially since everyone (including docs and DH) seemed to think I'd probably be a bit early and psyched me out.
DH last night commented that he hoped she stays put a little longer so he can get more stuff done at work before his leave. Easy for you to say! I did complain to him about that comment since I'm starting to get worried about ending up induced. At least he agreed he doesn't want that either, and said he is still feels like LO will be here very soon. I wish I could be so confident :-/ And of course my crazy pregnancy brain felt like if he's hoping that strongly she won't come yet, maybe she can tell and that's why she has still stayed put. (Completely irrational, I know.)
I am in major pp emotions and baby blues. Dh had his annoying brother over the other night which led ugly cry in bed because how I always feel as a outcast. Now dh just told brother about a lease house 2 doors down from us. Omg if he has to live near us as well, I will not be. Happy camper but I doubt it cause him and girlfriend both have horrible credit.
My car is 10 years old and we just found out that it's part of the giant GM recall. A week ago we found out DHs car is also part of the recall. So now we have two cars to fix and no time to take them to the dealership. I hate GM.
I really, really just want to sell my stupid old car and be done with it. It's currently the car we have the car seat in since DHs is a two door. My wealthy grandma has actually offered to give us $$ for a new car (we have money in savings for something like this bit she really wants to help) since we want something bigger and reliable for LO to ride in, and with all this recall BS I really want to take her up on it, but I feel guilty taking that big of a gift from someone.
You aren't clever, I know what you are asking, we are not close, and I will not be emailing your first if I am feeling anything. You are nosey and you drive me nuts.
I am miserable with allergies that just swept in and kicked my ass on Friday - none of the "approved" meds seem to be working and I am just ready to have this baby! 12 days from EDD, not sleeping, navigating hemorrhoids and heartburn at every turn, and now sneezing, coughing and swollen eyes/drippy nose -added bonus, most of the sneezing and coughing tends to squirt out some extra pee! (snissing?)
I feel like all I can do is walk from one place to sit or lie down to another, and yet here I am at work :-h
I actually had a moment last night where I thought to myself "Am I really pregnant, or is this just the weirdest tumor in the history of ever, and I will never be comfortable again?" So done, guys. So done. -__-;;
Also, fuck moving. Most of the essentials of what I own are still in my previous apartment (clothes, toiletries, entertainment devices, etc.) because MH refuses to sleep in the new place, and I refuse to spend my first night in a new home sleeping alone. >:/ And he took the building/apartment access card key with him to work, so once I leave for the day, I won't be able to get back in until he's there. I kinda want to scream and rage a bit, because not only is there only so much a nine-months-KU mother can carry from a third floor apartment (with elevator assistance, even!) it's St. Patty's day, and I CAN'T DRINK.
I am sitting here with a diaper on my boob because I have a clogged duct (hurts like a mother!) the flipping size of a tennis ball. The diaper with water stays warm longer than a wash cloth for my warm compress.
I was already struggling with milk supply and now it has decreased on the side with the clogged duct.
I pump every 2hrs around the clock. This hurts a lot right now.
I have "mommy thumb" which also hurts like a bitch.

I seriously feel like I smell like breast milk 24/7. I bathe, change my nursing pads but it's all I can smell and it's grossing me out! THats a lame bitch but it's all I got right now!
The official name is De Quervain's tendinitis. But basically from picking up baby under the armpits with my thumbs on his chest and fingers on his back I have stressed the tendons in my wrist below the thumb on my right hand.
Now I am heating my boob and icing my hand. It's pretty spectacular overall.

@laura8388 do they sell Nature's Miracle at any pet stores by you? It's supposed to break down the urine so dogs can't smell it... Had worked really well for us!
I'm sooo hungry all the time! And we haven't had a chance to get groceries in about a week so we have no food. So either I'm going to be eating left overs that are a little too old, or cereal. Cereal it is! (Since there is no way I'm loading everyone up to go to a drive-thru…)
I am at work and have mildly uncomfortable CX all morning. Nothing timeable and nothing getting more intense. But I mention it to MH (who is in the shop working on one of our sanders).
About an hour later I ask him if it seems extremely warm in the office, cause I am all flush and sweating. He says a little warm, but nothing to sweat over.
Then about 2 hours later I am really sweating. Red faced and heavy breathing and all. So I think to myself that maybe I should call the doctor just to be sure this isn't early labor and see what they say.
Before I do, I check the thermostat. It says 84 fucking degrees! And the air is turned off!
I ask MH if he turned it off, or if one of the guys was messing with it. His response..."Yup, the air filter needs to be changed so I turned it off until so and so can get to it." Are you kidding me?! He had me thinking there was something wrong with me or that I was going into labor. Did he not think to mention that he had turned off the air after I asked him if it was warm?!
If one more person says they hope my (team green) baby is a boy (I have 2 yr old twin girls) I'm going to snap. What is so wrong with another girl? If baby comes out a girl and someone dares utter a comment about wishing it had been a boy I'm going to kick their *** out of my hospital room/house.
@NanaCook. If I remember right didn't you mention you live in Nebraska? I'm sorry if that is completely wrong, but I thought I remember you talking about NE, and then I see you are in MST. I'm from Western NE as well if you are, and was just curious!
I'm pretty sure my mom is ignoring me because she is upset about something I had to stand up for myself over to my stepdad. Usually I feel really bad and guilty about something like this. But right now two weeks before undue date, I'm just irritated. Either call and talk to me about it or get over it. I don't need this stress right now.
