Sunday Vents, Confessions, AWs

Ms.Starry

Whatever you have that don't necessitate its own post.

Confession: I looooove hot baths. I was abstaining through week 5 but have slowly started taking them again, starting with a hair above lukewarm and getting warmer each day. Still not as hot as I prefer, and I don't think my temp is rising much.

Another confession: I have said this before but I really don't understand intro posts on this board. Is anyone reading them all? I can't wait for another month when hopefully they end. Obviously we are all having babies in October, I can't see the need to congratulate everyone individually but perhaps I have no heart. You can feel sorry for my baby now. And my husband

Lol, I get what you are saying. I intro'd here, but generally skip them. Call me heartless....or easily bored. Either way.

I like the intros. Pretty soon they'll be gone, and unfortunately we will be seeing some goodbye posts. Those really suck.

My confession: I am going to really miss medium rare steak! However, I will not miss changing the kitty litter. (insert evil "bwahahaha" laugh here.)

I feel the same way about intros. I xp my BFP post from ttgp and now realize how ridic that was. I wish there was a sticky that we could put that said congrats to you for joining the board. 

Eta: I don't mean for that to sound heartless just sometimes I can't congratulate all the intros and I am truly happy for the ladies joining us.

I feel like I have a lot of vents tonight, but I will stick with one.

 

Last night my BIL ticked me off. They invited us out to dinner to celebrate and I ate a good amount. (A rarity for me lately with the MS) I don't know about you all, but by the end of the night I am SO bloated. I think it might be a little worse because I am on progesterone still, but whatever. Bloating sucks. Anyway, we were hanging out at their house and I unzipped my jeans because they were uncomfortable. I had on a sweatshirt and you couldn't see anything. When we were leaving I stood up and zipped and buttoned my pants. He was like, "Geez, the babies aren't that big. Your not showing yet, how are you so fat already that you have to unzip your pants??" 

I cried on the way home.

What a douche canoe. Sorry about your BIL.

I don't see the big deal about the intros. If you don't want to read it then don't. I read them to see EDD's and who else might be a 3rd time mom like me, etc. and I congratulate them because I'd love to have me some silver bling

You might as well get used to them, because soon they will turn into "My 1st appt was today!" "I saw the baby on U/S for the first time" "I'm terrified of taking my glucose test" "We are team..." etc etc It is all repetative.

My poor husband has been so excited about this baby all weekend but I just can't get into it with him.  I feel so bad but until I get the results of my bloodwork tomorrow, I'm not going to feel confident about this pregnancy.  It's probably an unwarranted fear but I'm freaking terrified.  I'm so hoping for good results tomorrow so I can start to celebrate with MH!

WTF. I would cry too. Plus you are having twins. Arsehold. I guess you are getting early warning though that he is an absolute jerk and to avoid him.

Sorry thundercats what a jerky thing to say.

I agree that the majority will be repetitive and that's not a bad thing just that I can't seem to keep up with all of the intros. I am happy for everyone that will be joining us!

Ha I guess this is why I would prefer to post on my home board on the nest but they hate baby talk. I want to talk about babies but not the exact same topic incessantly. 

The main reason I was complaining is they seem to take up 70% of topics some days so it is hard to find non-intro topics.

I don't read all the intro posts. Too many to respond to. Here is a global "HI" to everyone.

Vent: DD's play group was cancelled for Tuesday morning, I have no idea what to do with her now. I like having a packed schedule and this is throwing me off.

Confession: I judge smokers, regardless of pregnancy status.

AW: I went to the gym 2 days in a row, and I'm craving raw vegetables. Score!

What a d!ck!! My cousin made a comment like that and I gave her a complete lesson in pregnancy, bloat, increased blood flow, swelling and growing uteruses, and shifting organs. She looked sick by the time I was finished, lol.

 

I have a vent too.

 We live in a very small town and my mom and I decided to go to the local diner and get some coffee. When we went to pay the cashier looked at me and said, "Oh, are you guys expecting a baby?" I thought she heard it from somebody else since Mom has been gushing about being a grandma. She asks how far along I was and I told her. Her eyes got wide, she looked at my stomache, and said, "Oh, you aren't that far along."

I know I look fat, but damn. It was rude and it upset me.

This is a response for you both: that was so rude...and I bet you both look fantastic.

OMG. So weird. Ugh. I am glad nothing like this has happened to me. I think most people know not to fcuk with me though because I will call them out and dish right back. Start thinking of a snappy comeback for next time!

 I get where you're coming from. I was just giving you a heads up that the next 9 months will be lots of repetitive stuff. I try to post on as many as possible because everyone wants to be congratulated on their pregnancy. I think it would stink to have 6 people throw congrats out at you when the intro post just below gets 20, KWIM?

Stay here and play. Things will get more interesting. Maybe we have a Selfie on our hands that hasn't crawled out of the woodwork yet I love when all the crazy comes out!

Next time someone says that to you please respond with "Yes I'm pregnant, what's your excuse?"

People are so incredibly stupid and rude to pregnant women. I never even ask if someone is pregnant until they look like that baby is going to fall out of them any second.

Associated confession:

I can't wait until the crazies come out here. I am a little worried I will be banned though and I don't want to have to start with a new name. It seems in general the bump has less tolerance for telling it like it is. I won't be a jerk for no reason but I won't suffer absurdity.

The first time someone pulls a you don't know me or an I feel sorry for your husband not in jest will be a good day

Bloated + exhausted = I wish tomorrow were Sunday again.

my weigh in on the intro posts:  I think they're fine.  I read them, don't always respond.  I know everybody is excited, so I get them.  I was pretty full of omg-squeeeee when I got my BFP. 

my confession:  since I'm PGAL, i'm paranoid to do ANYTHING this go round.  i'm scared to work out.  i'm scared to lift heavy boxes.  I'm scared to stretch too much.  I will absolutely be buying a doppler to hear LO's HB just as soon as it's possibly feasible that I could hear it.  I fully intend to be just paranoid enough to make sure that nothing happens to this baby.  I don't know if I can handle another m/c so soon.  (my m/c was in November.)

JenRN1115

Ha!  That's my Sunday confession....I hope we get a Selfie!  She is like a car crash, you don't want to look but you can't turn away.

Also, I posted my into but I am trying to be more involved this time instead of just lurking like I did for my Nov 2010 bm board.  So I wanted to jump on the intro bandwagon! 

twofishes1984

hmm.. I actually read pretty much all of the intro posts.. I like them. I dont comment on most but I read them. Helps me feel connected to everyone and to know everyones situation better. Plus, I think intro posts are a great release for many people who, like me, dont have anyone they can really talk to about all this.. this is a great place to be excited and not have to hide it.. I like the intros.

 As for vents: I really really want to take a hot hot bath but I cant Im tired all the time and worry constantly that I will have another miscarriage...like.. NONSTOP. Especially since I dont feel all the morning sickness. My wedding is in less than 2 weeks and I just feel overwhelmed. I want to relax and.. well.. sleep all the time haha.

 Hope everyone had a great weekend!

**4 weeks, 6 days--poppyseed*

What is a 'selfie" ?? Ive seen a few posts about this but have no idea what this means... anyone care to explain? thanks.

My confessions are late, but here goes j After swearing we would wait until after our first u/s next month, we spilled the beans to our parents this weekend, and my mom wants to plan an extended family dinner to tell everyone else next weekend. I've been eating super healthy, but killed half a can of dill pickle pringles yesterday. Oops!
