@mrsmgsee People just say dumb stuff to pregnant women no matter what. The opposite of the "moving fast" comment, DH's aunt assumed that since we've been married a decade we just didn't want kids, and would have had them already if we wanted them. We've been trying for four years, so she was lucky this was communicated via phone, and not in person, because I was ready to let her have it! A acquaintance also said he was happy for us, but "had never though of us as kid-type people." My pregnancy rage cannot handle these kinds of idiots right now.
I just saw a pregnancy announcement on Facebook. It was super cute. The couple has been married less than a year and more than one person responded with "FINALLY." Seriously? The baby is due before their first anniversary. How quickly do people expect everyone to get pregnant that they think pregnancy was a long time coming less than a year after the wedding?
@bridge-and-wall DH and I have been together for almost 8 years and married for 3 , we started TTC about 8months after we got married. we have some people telling us not to rush enjoy your time together...I'm like uhhh we've enjoyed almost a decade together, we good. And others asking when we are going to have kids? (Frustrating after 3 losses)
I think it depends on how long theyve been together before they got married. Like if it they have in total only been together for a very short period of time then the finally is odd, but if theyve been together for years and finally tied the knot then it's not as odd. Idk that's my thoughts.
@Sugargirl1019@daniellelynette thanks girls. I was just in a mood and then the beer spill put me over the edge. It was a great concert, and would have been amazing had we been in a different section. He played from 8:30 - 11:50 with a 10 minute intermission.
I ordered 10 boxes of Girl Scout cookies from my sisters friend who was helping a little girl whose mom refused to take her anywhere to sell her cookies... now my ten boxes of cookies are at my sisters house.... three hours away I am so sad. Also she still has some of my maternity clothes and I'm a little nervous to ask again because I don't want her to think I'm bugging her. She tends to get mad at me really easily. Story of my life. That's a whole different thread tho. I'm just sad about my Girl Scout cookies
sidenote...is it just me or have a lot of our threads died down? i feel like there used to be a lot more posting and stuff. Maybe people have gone back in hiding until after 1st trimester?
So my 4 yo DD lit her hair on fire today while I was making lunch today...that was fun (wasn't on fire, just the ends burnt, boy did it smell!). I thought it scared her bc she was hysterical afterwards, but no, she was back on the counter 20 min later.
@lahearn18 I thought the same thing. I've been super busy at work lately so I haven't been on much, if at all, during the week, but it doesn't even seem like I miss much.
Also I'm currently eating a fruit by the foot while watching the notebook
I feel like it's been a bit slow too. Maybe it would help if those of us who are regulars posted more gtky type stuff? Idk. I just know for myself, exhaustion has hit me like a ton of bricks this week.
The presidential address didnt even get spicy lol Not complaining about the lack of drama just wish people would participate more. Maybe we should do more GTKY. I feel like they bring people out.
@lahearn18 nobody even wanted to talk about the presidential address! Which I thought would be a good topic to discuss since he's talking about repealing the affordable care act and that really affects pregnant and breastfeeding moms. Breastpumps and stuff are covered under the affordable care act. Oh well I'm totally okay with everyone being super chill. I wouldnt mind more GTKY stuff! We all know I obviously don't have a problem participating
@Becky012016 what is an after dark type thread? I wouldn't have much for the inlaws, DHs mom and step dad are awesome and we don't hear from the rest of his family.
@HollyGolightly09 "My friends are clearly not unlike this board" that actually had me laughing out loud lol! I love draw something but DH is the only one who will play with me. One time he literally wrote "nut pie" for the word pecan lmao. And I drew a red bull that had a really disgraceful red cow on it lol. I also love words with friends! I'm not very good but I like it lol.
I haven't felt sick all day and actually thought maybe the nausea was leaving me alone... I am currently sitting in the car trying not to vomit, waiting for DH and my nephew to finish eating at the restaurant we came to.
Ditto. The 1st visit to meet the family...my MIL (then just boyfriend's mom) made ethnic remarks about my family...to my face in front of EVERYONE. DH dragged her out of the room yelling at her. She claims ignorance, but everyone in the room (all his family) was shocked. She always is asking how my grandma and family is doing all the time...and it grinds my gears because she said some effed up stuff about people she'd never met at the time....i don't think I'll ever forgive her...it was almost 8 years ago
Ugh, I'm in your boat, @HollyGolightly09. I've been feeling better this week- only taking my nausea medicine once a day, just a little nauseated in the evening, no vomiting for almost 10 days, eating fairly normally. Then this evening it hit me hard. I'm so sick, and I've thrown up twice. No bueno, hormones.

Ugh.... I'm sorry! It sucks. I have felt sick for 9 weeks... I think that's good. Give it a rest.
Weekly random, ummm I thought I get something hard on my lower abdomen and was pretty excited because I knew that was my bump but now I tried to feel it and it's hardly there, I mean instead of growing, feels like it's shrinking...
Idk why only half of my post got posted, I am 11 weeks and 1 day today! Any of you felt your bump at 10 weeks? And at what point did you feel your bump?

I'm almost 14 and I'm just now maybe feeling firmness right above my pelvic bone. When I do my dopper, I still have to have the doppler *rightupnext* to the pubic bone and angle it under still.
According to fundal height articles, practitioners start feeling and measuring fundal height anywhere between 12-14 weeks. I think 10 is a bit early to definitely be feeling the fundus.

@shreyaR you probably felt poop. My uterus (12 weeks) is about 2 finger widths above my public bone but this is also my second pregnancy. It's normal after a full term birth to have the uterus rise out of the pelvis earlier by a week or two.

Oh I'd have plenty for a weekly in-law rant. Especially because I'm particularly skilled at never really letting anything go
