FFFC 11/7

It's that time of the week everyone!

Confessions are hardly ever flame free, just so you know.

  • I haven't taken a bump pic in weeks. I was so good about documenting my 1st pregnancy... but it seems like I'm in sweats and no makeup every time I think about it this time.

  • FFFC/tmi: I Bump while I go to the bathroom(#1 and #2 ).
    Yup me too. Though I'm scared of dropping my phone in the toilet. Too many friends have actually done it. My FFFC: the expensive purse thread got me really wanting a new bag ... I think I'm just gonna treat myself to the ju ju be diaper bag I want :) even though we really need to purchase the crib mattress and stroller before a fancy diaper bag. Gah decisions!
    @grumpycat88 - I don't do expensive purses, but my diaper bag is (for me, anyway?).. it's a Ju-Ju Be!  I'm kind of ticked, though, because I got mine from Amazon and just noticed it's $20 cheaper than it was a few days ago when I got it- boo.  So I say get it. :)

    have you actually felt/held a ju ju be? I have one and like it. ... But they are heavy even when they are empty. I hardly used mine.
    I ended up getting a Petunia pickle bottom which I love! Much lighter.
    I sometimes use both bags interchangeably though, so you can't go wrong. ... Just wanted to say they are heavy.

  • @LaBellaVida‌ I haven't held one before ... I was a big fan of the idea of it could be a backpack or a messenger bag. I did hold a similar petunia pickle bottom bag that I didn't think was too heavy. I would love to actually try them out before buying one but can't figure out an actual store to do so.

    I have the be all, and I find the messenger strap not long enough. The bag itself is smaller then I would have liked, but I use it now that I don't need to carry allot of stuff.

    I'll be going back to my PPB once baby comes since it is bigger and I'll need to carry enough for 2.
    I have the wistful weekender.

  • I ordered take-out for dinner three times this week, and went out to lunch twice. Its not the worst since we get healthy take-out (thanks rapidly gentrifying neighbourhood!) But, it is expensive and we're trying to save up in advance of the baby coming. 


  • People keep asking me "aren't you ready to not be pregnant anymore?" The truth is I'm terrified to have to take care of a baby. I spent 3+ years researching infertility and then pregnancy and know those things backwards and forwards. I've never been around a baby and I don't have the time to read up on it. I think the baby can cook as long as it wants, it's easier to care for that way. 
    You're going to be a great mom. You are, already. :)

    But yeah, I totally get your sentiment.

    Doesn't everyone do this?
    No.

    ::insert Grumpy Cat meme::

    i also don't do this.  mostly because by the time TB app loads and i get onto the community, i'm already done (even with #2).  just not worth it.

    Chat with them and they'll probably refund the difference, or at least give you Amazon credit for it.  They're pretty good about it!  

    ---------------------
    Amazon definitely does price adjustments! They even honored a Cyber Monday price on something I purchased a few days earlier. They refunded the difference to my credit card.

    ok, so my confession today:  i'm a candy crush addict.  i have NOT, however, spent any real money on it.
    I still play often, but I refuse to spend $ as well. 
    I freakin love candy crush. I used to spend a dollar here and there but I am proud to say that I don't do that anymore. I play it on the subway and before bed :)

    I used to play it and then I quit because I could NOT beat a level for anything. Now I play Farm hero saga and I like it better.

    i've definitely had a couple several-month-long breaks due to frustration with a level, but i always come back to it.  i've been playing since july of last year and i'm on level...515, i think?  i play while eating breakfast and before bed.  sometimes while eating lunch too, just 5 lives at a time.  lol

  • I had waffles for breakfast and just ate 2 donuts after my lunch.

    I rationalize that the waffles were high fibre and I had fruit, so that's "healthy". The donuts are because I had a crappy night's sleep and I wanted them ;)

    Have fun with that one! Haha. My husband just thinks he's a badass so I wanted to turn the table on him a little. Even if it's lying ;)

  • @MusicFanatic‌, why do they limit your shower time? It sounds like the military! Is it bad for you to be standing up that long, or is it a water conservation issue?
  • My FFFC - I have a lot of things I wanted to accomplish this week at work, but I'm leaving at 4 to go out of town this weekend, and that's all I can really focus on. That, and how badly I want a snack. This office doesn't allow eating or drinking except in the cafeteria, but I think I'm about to break a rule.

    @Maebb‌ - I'm already dilated and effaced some with short cervix. Laying down = less pressure on my cervix. So they don't like me to stand for long periods. My BP also rises when I'm up and about- especially in the shower (not sure if it's the warm water or standing in general).. So I'm limited to 10 minute showers and I don't get them daily :(

    This is me too! I've never changed a diaper in my life. I just handed my niece or nephew over to their parents for that. I'm the youngest child and also youngest grandchild on both sides so I haven't been around a lot of babies. I know I'll adjust and instincts will kick in but I'm still freaked out about having a baby to take care of.

    Sorry! I hope baby girl will stay in and keep getting strong and healthy for as long as she can, but I'm sure when she's born it will be wonderful to hold her, take a shower, and do all the things you can't do now.
  • oh my goodness @musicfanatic....I love showers...that would piss me off! Haha but everything is pissing me off lately...so it really doesn't take much!

    It does, I love my showers too.. but nothin' I can do about it :(
    I take more baths than showers- because I'm laying down. But I don't like them as much. I prefer my showers.
