@Smom901316 congrats on the baby girl! My a/s is next week, I can't wait! I just hope baby cooperates.
@2goofykids I am sorry you are going through that! Don't bosses know pregnant women don't need stress! My boss has been awful lately too! To the point where I have decided to spend maternity looking for a new teaching position. Maybe you could ask for the hr number because you have some questions about maternity stuff? In the mean time I would write down everything so that you can show them exactly what is going on. Good luck!
@charley15 even though I am Team Green, I'm still excited to hear everyone else's news! Like @skruhmin said earlier, I can't believe we are getting to that stage already!!!
What would you gals think of a thread where we (at least those who are finding out) can announce the baby's sex? That way, announcement threads won't get lost. A poll could be included too!
There was one started a while back with a poll. My phone wouldn't let me attach the link, so I just bumped it!
Never in my life have I caused a kitchen fire. Today I decided to change that. I put a protein bar under the broiler to warm it up and walked away (first mistake). THEN I decided to sit down at the piano and pregnancy brain took over. My husband was like, "Is something burning?!". I literally ran to the oven and...raging fire in the oven. Ugh.
So tired! It is only 9pm and I am already horizontal! Poor dh I asked him to stop for coffee on his way home from work and I may not be awake to drink it. Growing a tiny human is exhausting!

I had a long work day, so I'm just catching up. Raging headache and crappy feeling... ding ding I've got a fever. I swear to goodness I can't stay well. One of these days I'll be able to take the good meds...
Today was total crap so I barely had time to log on at all...decided to check in before bed and these posts totally cheered me! Have a good night ladies, hoping to be around more tomorrow.
So I stopped to talk to a neighbor last night... 1.5 hours later my husband steps out to check on me. I kinda felt bad, but jeez, I went down to get the pumpkin pie from the car and it takes him that long to wonder where I am? *sigh* guess I'm just hard to please. Then again, I worked my but off cleaning our home again today and he looks at me when I sit down with a popsicle for fluids and wines about being bored. I just looked at him and go, "then get downstairs and grab the 4 loads of laundry so I don't have to drag them up with our son in tow" he then responds that he is not that bored. Lol I tell him to shut the f*** up then. Just a grumpy
Good morning I think its going to be a great day! Despite the dreariness, and rain...
I got the best birthday presents ever today First, I tried calling my dog over so I could give him morning lovin's. He wouldn't come, so I said "Its mama's birthday and you won't give me kisses!?" He came running right over and licked my face! He has learned to associate "birthday" with "chicken nuggets" (its what we do every year for his birthday), but I don't care- he was just as excited to come give me my morning kisses and cuddles.
Then, I walk toward the bathroom to start getting ready for the day, and I hear "Good morning, mom. Happy Birthday!" My kid woke up ON HER OWN AND DID NOT FIGHT ME to get ready for school like she does every other morning!
I call this morning a total win

Geeze. I love that if someone that just started using this site doesn't like a comment you've made today can go back an find a comment you made weeks ago, report it, and get you a warning. Ugh. Such awesomeness.

Lol yes. And going back and seeing new comments I'd be willing to bet next months siggy vote that I could also pinpoint the exact member that reported me. Haha

I am on two warnings... Both given retroactively and when questioned for clarification (one was saying someone was stupid for postING personal info online to join a FBgroup... I was nice enough to NOT quote it)

butt hurt newbs........sigh. Some people just don't have the thick skin that is required to be on an honest, scientific, and snarky board. They need to join a different board that tells them everything will be all rainbows and unicorns......
Morning ladies, congrats on all who are getting warnings. Welcome to the club (I became a member a few weeks ago - fun times). My 4-year old was actually pleasant this morning and in a great mood. Made me want to stay home with him.

Ironically, for people who want sunshine and rainbow poops, those complaints are kind of Debbie Downers on an entertaining, funny, snarky, and informative board.
So I called HR yesterday. And this morning when I got in our restaurants owner was waiting to talk to me. So, thats bad already. And so what my boss is doing is apparently perfectly fine because no one had asked me to provide a doctor's note stating that I'm pregnant. Also, I have to have uniform-appropriate pants tomorrow when I come in. And then and only then will they order my new shirts. So, I may not actually come back to work tomorrow. I may quit. This is too much stress, and the only thing I want is to be able to leave my shirt untucked.
@2goofykids I'm sorry you had to go through this. It's some bs for real. Honestly since you're about to be moving anyways, I'd just quit. They can keep that stress for themselves.

Oh jeeze, sorry they are being such a PITA! I never had to provide a doctors note when I was working and asked for light duty work. I don't know your finacial situation but I would totally quit if I were you. Totally not work the stress they're putting you through!
