FFF!

We need to liven up the board - you know the rules!

False labor can suck the big one. It's making me look like I'm crying wolf everytime I think "this is it!" And then it's not. At this rate, no one will even know I'm in labor when I really am because I'm too damned afraid to look like a jackass again. Also, the sky is falling!

I drove all the way home from PI yesterday without buckling Caleb in his carseat. It was like 15 miles, most of them highway miles. Plus it was raining. I felt awful!

ourbaby08 · April 2009

I am thankful for the ability to BF but I am so tired of my leaky boobs and having to pump.

mrsmikey · April 2009

I'm getting kinda down about the zoo trip on the 18th. I've posted twice and only 2 other people are coming. Don't get me wrong, I am more than excited to go with them and their families. But when we were planning, there were just as many going on the 18th as the 25th. Now it seems like EVERYONE is going the 25th. Hopefully there are more coming on the 18th and they just didn't get a chance to reply to my posts. I was excited about getting to meet some of you!

I've got 4 weeks left of work and I'm planning to wear my comfy shoes and comfy clothes for the duration. My dress clothes just aren't cutting it and I refuse to buy more! I dare anyone to question me!

I've done the exact same thing. It happens, just be grateful it didn't matter!

I went to the gym yesterday for the first time in forever (almost 2 years). ?But that is not my flameworthy confession - this is: my motivation to go was that I really needed an hour break to have some "me" time because I had DD all day and the gym has a great Kids Care.

becki777 · April 2009

Oh I am so tired of leaky boobs too! I really need to go buy new clothes, my boobs don't fit in 80% of my shirts. I wish we had money...

nark · April 2009

My BFF is all excited for her DD to turn 4 months old so that she can get her ears pierced. This kind of freaks me out.

crescentmoon99 · April 2009

I let Liam eat a little piece of toilet paper this morning. He was getting upset about me trying to get it out of his mouth and it was already dissolving on his tongue anyway so I just let him swallow it LOL.

becki777 · April 2009

It took me a couple weeks to start feeling like I had a relationship with DS, before that it was just doing what needed to be done. I felt really guilty I didn't have an instant connection.

To each their own I suppose, but young babies (like your BFFs) with their ears pierced freak me out as well. I just think babies are so perfect as they are. They don't need any embellishments.

beshan · April 2009

I had my first apple martini (my favorite) in 11 months last night and it was sooo good that I decided to have another. Big mistake. Pregnancy did a number on the tolerance and I got pretty tipsy. DH took care of Aubrey for the night because alcohol + sleep deprivation= passed out. I paid for it when I woke to feed Aubrey 7 hours later because I was pretty engorged and had a major headache. I will not be doing that again for a while.

nark · April 2009

I have a glass of wine now and then.?

SalisburyBride · April 2009

DH and DC walked in on me hiding out in the bathroom last weekend! John has been soo clingy and DH has been working really long hours so I asked DH to keep an eye on John while I went to pee alone without my toilet paper and potty flushing helper. I guess I was taking too long and they busted in on me just sitting on the closed lid potty reading a golf magazine of all things. Dh asked what I was doing and I replied honestly - having a little me time!

Jules_NC · April 2009

Would it be wrong for me to return to the office after lunch sans bra? It's driving me insane! I think my belly distracts enough attention... so tempting!

I think that's the case with ALOT of new moms. It's just one of those things you don't talk about. I think it's perfectly normal.

MrsLee04:

The phone just rang and I decided not to answer because I suspected it was my mom.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who does this! I wouldn't ignore her calls if she only called me once a day!

surfnsandbride · April 2009

I can relate to Mrs. Lee today! I'd love to be able to go to more GTG's and events, but I'm the only one here! But I do know that summer is coming and some of you frequent the area, I'll be on mat. leave so a few trips around town to meet some of you would be great! Big Smile

I love my friend, but I may have to strangle her! I'm having her shower at my house tomorrow and she's called me at least five times today to make sure I'm on top of the details (making jokes about my short-term memory isn't helping!). I've worked pretty hard to make it happen (a couples shower, dinner for 35 at my house Indifferent ) and I'm sure that even though it's not everything she asked for, it will be very nice. All that said, and I'd really like to just be able to tell her that I'm worried about her being so "wedding" oriented and not "marriage" oriented. Weddings are nice and all but you are married to someone after that and I'm not sure that has sunk in with her yet.

MrsSavannah · April 2009

My 20 year old Rainbow vacuum died a few weeks ago. I'm trying to find a great deal on one so I have yet to replace it. Since I can't vacuum I sweep the floors but I haven't even done that in a couple of days. And Savannah is crawling all over them.

7miles · April 2009

Ha Jules, you're killing me. I've wondered the same thing about the bra. I can't take it digging into me anymore! Also, I want you to know that I'm at work and dressed in overalls.

Bras are EVIL! I'm so done with them.

Overalls sound so comfy! Although I've become terribly clumsy and I'd never get the buckles undone for my 100 bathroom trips a day.

Murph - I am seriously considering it! I'm in the office with just 2 people (males) and think that I can wear my lightweight sweater just right to make it less obvious - I'm just not that brazen! However, the second I leave, it's off and I'm bra less for the drive home!

murph04 · April 2009

Jules, if you don't want to take it all the way off (at least right away) you can just undo the clips at the back for a little relief.

Umm, guilty again. Are we the same person?

MRSGOLABONTE · April 2009

I'm too paranoid to quote becki's leaking post also, because I'm afraid y'all will think I"m a loser with no creativity to come up with my own FFF topics.

MRSGOLABONTE · April 2009

Ooooh, I've got one, I've got one...and it's original.

This is my third [or is it fourth] week at this job, but my mentor doesn't have any time to sit down and hand over projects to me. So here I sit, not knowing if I'm supposed to be making up work to do or if it's OK to be surfing. I'm sure it's not OK to be surfing, but I don't know what else I should be doing. I'm feeling very conflicted about this.

SpeedGlenn · April 2009

I miss peeing and pooping with the door closed.

I really like eating all of my own food without sharing it with Ben. Sometimes its fun, but other times I'm hungry and I just fed him and I just want to eat and enjoy my breakfast/lunch/dinner

Every now and then I really miss being able to just do stuff. Friends want me to take a class with them, but they have nannies. I don't. All Ben all the time. I'm grateful that I'm able to do it, but I wish it was easier to find someone to watch my kid during the day.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE taking pictures for people - but I have entered full on busy season. I feel bad that instead of help Bif give Ben a bath, that I'm editing pictures. I'm SO grateful that this is going in a great direction, and grateful for the opportunities and experience, but I miss my Men.

I'm worried about trying to get pregnant again for a MILLION reasons. My cycles aren't the same, the whole economic situation, my back issues... I haven't sat down to talk with Bif about it, but I think we really need to.

I am so tired right now that all I want to do is take a nap. But I have photos to edit and a chair to finish recovering. Hopefully I sleep well tonight.

I need a glass of water.

SpeedGlenn · April 2009

I just cancelled a meeting with a photographer that wanted to talk to me about working with her so that I could play with Ben this afternoon instead.

I'm sure she thinks that my priorities are out of whack but I'm pretty sure they are right in line.

I think your priorities are exactly where they should be.

I appreciate that. I chose to stay home for a reason. This whole phtography thing just kind of happened by accident and has taken on a life of its own. Again - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. BUT - I don't want it to get too big. Right now, it's just right.

<3cici<3 · April 2009

I think this is my first post in weeks. I've really cut down on posting and even lurking since last month when I got AF. I know it's taken others a lot longer to get pregnant, so I'm not after a pity party...I just honestly think I need to keep myself focused on other things so that I don't get as disappointed when AF arrives each month. I guess you ladies with your adorable babies just make me want to have one that much more:o)

marryingacoach · April 2009

I wish I had kept my mouth shut and not invited my SIL and nephews to the Easter Egg hunt tomorrow. They always make things more difficult than they should be but I know how much Gbear loves being around them....ughhh! One day I will learn to keep my mouth shut.

To the lady who asked me if I was pregnant last weekend you can kiss my a$$! Yes I still have a little belly and big boobs but seriously didn't anyone teach you any manners?

I know a pregnant lady who is so worried about how much weight she is going to gain it is ridiculous. She has lost a significant amount of weight in the last 2 years (and not the healthy way) and she wants to continue her unhealthy eating habits so she doesn't gain too much weight...ughhh get over yourself please!

cate1119 · April 2009

I let Ella sleep 4 hours last night without waking her up to feed her. I feel guilty about that, but considering we haven't slept but 30 minutes the past few days, I wanted to capitalize on it. I did pump so I didn't feel too engorged, but she woke up screaming her head off b/c she was soooo hungry. Sigh....at least she can't remember when I screw up

FFF!
