It's rainy and I am bored so let em rip!!!

amarissa85

So my doctor wants me on a gestational diabetes diet and told me no sugars ect. I have been doing good and snacking on only fruits and veggies and choosing complex carbs, reading labels and such. Last night I had a small scoop of ice cream. I feel a bit guilty about it but DH said I had done really good since finding out and was ok with letting me have a small bit.

TristansMom01

Yesterday my sister who is also pregnant said she wanted a burger and a hot fudge sundae. Through the power of suggestion I then wanted the same. I actually weighed myself to make sure I was ok to get the burger and ice cream. I then felt so guilty I gave DH my fries.
I'm starting my pregnancy with a little extra chunk so I'm trying to be very aware of what I'm eating.

My (sort of) confession. Not sure if it is really a confession, but it has been on my mind lately.

I get super annoyed with all the baby name posts. Why is everyone so determined they must have a name already? If you and H can't decide... You have months and months to make a decision!

If you have already decided on a name, fantastic. If H and you cannot decide, why rush it? We haven't even discussed names yet, and I am not stressed. We have more then enough time!

Confession: I get more emotional over watching news/videos/reading articles about animals than I do when I read or see anything sad related to humans.

ASPCA commercial comes on? I die.
Commercial about feeding the poor little kiddos in a 3rd world country? Meh.

Man, that sounds super insensitive.  I CARE about the poor kiddos, I swear I do, I just don't react so much to those commercials as I do to anything animal realted.

Seriously. Do you really want a bunch of strangers gving their opinion on your childs name?! Even worse, do you want some stranger coming up with your childs name? Fast forward 10 years....."Mommy, how did you and Daddy decide what you would name me?" -"Some stranger on the internet suggested it...."

I agree. That is what the baby name board is for anyways?!! I hate the redundant baby shower and baby name posts. Go post it over that way

<------------------ see the appropriate board!!! There is a lot of traffic on both those board, I know because I lurk over there and post on the BF board.

my mom had no idea what to name me or my brother and came up with it in the hospital after delivery so I'm not worried.  I have a few I like and when I look into his or her eyes I'll know what it should be.  and who said anything about a stranger naming my baby? not sure where that came from

I don't think that was directed at you. More or less the people that post asking opinions on what to name their baby.

I babysit my 20 month old nephew on Thursday nights. Yesterday I was so tired that I was kind of dreading it. He's very active. So I was trying to come up with a scheme to keep him occupied. I ran the bathtub for him. He loved it and didn't want to get out. I gave him a few toys to play with in there and just sat on the edge of the tub. It was a good hour of not having to chase him around the house and it was totally worth getting soaked. New Thursday nite activity!

Oh! I actually have a decent one! So someone on my friends list announced they were pregnant this week and I am already thinking about blocking her posts. She's sweet but incredibly stupid and is already asking asinine questions. This is not her first. I try not to be a judgey mom but I already know I'm going to either block the posts or side eye so hard and so often I'm going to need to hit up the optometrist!

Yep or if she is getting cranky and it's not quite nap time. I got a really good piece of advice when she was newborn. Whenever possible put a cranky baby in water. DD loves baths and when she is getting grumpy we just jump in a bath and all is good  

I do this too, but was also given the advice in my childbirth/ infant care class to get baby naked if you can't figure out why they are cranky. DD loved naked time when she was itty bitty. Now that she is mobile, we leave a diaper on, but it still works.

This made me chuckle. There are some people on my FB who I still have as friends but have their posts blocked because honestly it gets fluckin ridiculous the crap they say. To be fair, I model and so I have modeling friends and DJ's from the radio site on my FB as it helps to promote. But WTF this one girl gripes everyday about how great of a model she is and how she got into it with this photog or that photog. Mind you the woman is like 40 years old and has never had a paid gig and probably never will. There is a reason that certain people will not work with her as she is a pompous know it all that thinks she is the best thing that ever happened to the modeling industry. It is ok if once in a while you and a photog may not clash but EVERY DAY?!!?!! Look in the mirror my dear, it seems you are the problem not them. Blah!!

I am envious of all you "cute" pregnant people. I am 16 weeks today and still just look fat. I told myself I would take pictures every week but I haven't, which makes me really sad. It's just hard to want to take your picture when you feel so unhappy about your appearance.  I have a feeling I will regret this later but I can't change it now.

I haven't been to the dentist in 5 years. Not intentionally, I just haven't really thought about it. I realized it the other day & am now in panic about it. I scheduled an appt as soon as I realized, but I'm scared they're going to tell me my whole mouth is broken.

Aww, don't be so hard on yourself. I'm sure the only person you "still just look fat" to is you. That belly will pop one night and you'll be so excited to break out the camera!

I scheduled an appt as soon as I realized, but I'm scared they're going to tell me my whole mouth is broken. I went 3 years without going, then went to a horrible dentist who charged me thousands of dollars for a "periodontal infection", and was generally just a jerk, so I quit going to him. I didn't find a new dentist for 4 years after that, and by then I had 7 cavities. I never had an infection btw, it was other health issues causing swollen gums. I think I good dentist would re-evaluate the diagnosis after the treatment not making a bit of difference for over a year, but instead he blamed my hygiene. I was following his prescribed routine to a T, but he called me a liar. Why would I continue to pay thousands of dollars for special cleanings and treatments and then do nothing at home?

My husband is currently in the hospital with kidney stones. I feel bad for him, but I was more irritated by the fact that he never once told me he thought he was getting the stones (he told his mom 2 days ago) AND he didn't even bother to txt or call me while he was on his way to the hospital yesterday. He sent his mom a text message to come get him from work to take him to the hospital. My MIL actually called me to tell me and I never heard from my H until 8 at night. I was LIVID. 

I guess this isn't really a FFFC, I'm just irritated by the chain of command there. I'm not sure if I'm out of line or it's just the pregnancy hormones/exhaustion. I just know that if I were to go into labor early or something, and called my best friend or someone else BESIDES my H, he'd probably be upset about it too.

ETA: If ONE more person posts about how worried they are that they haven't gained any weight yet, or that they're still below their PP weight, I'm going to flip the F out.

I'd be upset too, he should have called you first and not his mother. He's not married to his mom, you as his wife should come first.

I was weighed at the cardiologist this morning, with my clothes and shoes on. I almost hyperventilated and nearly had a panic attack. I've done nothing differently, but I swear I've gained like 5 lbs in the past week. All 1st tri I think I gained 3.

The cardiologist was not at all concerned and even commented that I look great; and thought I was due much later. But I've struggled with my weight for a long time and this is making me CRAZY. I'm seriously freaking out. I don't want to be a fat mom. I want to be able to play with my baby, and be comfortable and keep up. And not embarrassed. I just... OMG. This is really, really hard for me.

I generally find that if it's been too long btw dentist visits, if I have a problem, I can feel it. So if you're not having pain or noticing and damage to any teeth, you might be fine, esp. if you have good brushing habits. FX for a healthy mouth.

 My FFFC is that I'm a little annoyed with my mom and sister. Neither of them seem to care that much that I'm pg. My MIL is great, always asking about me, baby, dr. visits, etc. she's even bought a couple little gifts. I can tell she's really excited about her new grandchild. I don't expect to be the center of attention or be lavished with gifts or anything, but mom and sis have hardly even checked in with me since I told them and they were the 1st to know. 

I know they are excited, but they don't seem to show it. It's probably just stupid hormones making me feel this way, but it makes me worry about whether they'll make an effort to have a close relationship with LO.

I would be so angry. I hate when husbands/men do things with a double standard. It makes me so angry. His mom should have made him call you and not intervened unless you just couldn't come get him.

I responded within maybe a few minutes of the post and it was already down. Yea... A whole six pounds in two weeks after losing a bunch to m/s. I normally don't lay into people, but really, if you gained 16 in a week then MAYBE you can make a post asking if it is weird. I did mention my weight the other day at the end of a looong post, but only because my nurse gave me a lecture about it.... I'm only 13 weeks!!!

Well one was just posted! Enjoy!  

ETA:: Ok I KNOW I just saw one, I think it was deleted?! She was concerned about gaining some of her weight back after she lost due to morning sickness. Anyone else see this? Or am I going crazy?

 You're not crazy! I was just responding and it disapppeared. Hers was especially special because she'd actually lost weight?

BTW I've said it once, but I'll say it again, I lose weight at the beginning of each of my pregnancies, but it ALWAYS catches up in the end. I lost 12 lbs during the first 9 weeks of this pregnancy, then gained all 12 back in the next 2-3 weeks. I take the posts as genuinely worried FTMs, but if they are bragging, I can assure you it will all come around in the end.

I haven't been to the dentist in 5 years. Not intentionally, I just haven't really thought about it. I realized it the other day & am now in panic about it. I scheduled an appt as soon as I realized, but I'm scared they're going to tell me my whole mouth is broken.

I generally find that if it's been too long btw dentist visits, if I have a problem, I can feel it. So if you're not having pain or noticing and damage to any teeth, you might be fine, esp. if you have good brushing habits. FX for a healthy mouth.

 My FFFC is that I'm a little annoyed with my mom and sister. Neither of them seem to care that much that I'm pg. My MIL is great, always asking about me, baby, dr. visits, etc. she's even bought a couple little gifts. I can tell she's really excited about her new grandchild. I don't expect to be the center of attention or be lavished with gifts or anything, but mom and sis have hardly even checked in with me since I told them and they were the 1st to know. 

I know they are excited, but they don't seem to show it. It's probably just stupid hormones making me feel this way, but it makes me worry about whether they'll make an effort to have a close relationship with LO. 

thank you for the encouragement, I certainly hope you're right!

GL with your Mom & Sis. My H's family barely acknowledges the fact that we're pregnant (to consumed with their own lives) but it can be hurtful, mostly just because I'd love to share the connection with my MIL.

No advice, but I'm sorry you have to deal with that.

My husband doesn't have the 22 year old body he had when we first met 6 years ago... And I wish he did.

Maybe she posted, read this, and then deleted?&nbsp; DARN!&nbsp; Come on people, give me something!!! Maybe I should post one of my own....

Darn it! My response to her was very nice considering what I was thinking. Did other people respond after? I saw her response to me and didn't get a chance to reply because I got caught up at work.
