I don't know what FFFC is...and I wish i could keep up with all the posts on this board
Flameful/Flame Free Friday Confessions.
I have another confession, but this one might not be flameful. ::shrugs::
Ever since the beginning of the 2nd trimester I've wanted rice krispie treats. I have not made them because I gained so much weight so quickly. I would eat an entire pan in a few days, so I'm trying to abstain.
Ok mine is about a completely irrational fear caused by hormones that I haven't told anyone about...all of the sudden I am terrified my husband will cheat on me or randomly leave me I know he won't, and he's never given me a reason to think he would. We are super close, and very open and honest with each other. Damn the hormones we even have sex 2-3 times a week so it's not that lol. I guess things are just going so well I keep waiting for the bottom to drop out!
I think the way you are feeling is normal. It's the hormones and the fact that your body is just not the same right now. I have had the same fears when he has given me no reason to. I'm self concious about certain things he always finds something positive to say.
I wish we were getting it on as often as you are.
. Good to know I'm not the only one and we only get in on in the morning now! I just have zero energy at bedtime .. Lol
I a very nervous about being induced and it is not exactly what I want, but I realize with GD it has to be. Having said this, I am secretly happy that I am having a June bug instead of a Firecracker...becasue I hate the birthstone for July. It's wrong, I know.
My pregnant "friend" (I am using this term loosely at the moment) is the type of woman that gives other pregnant women a bad name. I am blocking her on FB because her posts are annoying and I secretly hope she goes 2 weeks past her due date. Shes been "having" this baby for the last three weeks. She isn't due until May 3rd. Stop posting you are 2 cm, you can be 2 cm's for weeks. Yes, you have contractions, but they are few and far between...no reason to take off work for a week you idiot. You have missed more work in the last 8 and half months than you literally could afford, I haven't taken off one single day, for anything, because I need my time for maternity leave. And guess what, so did you. That makes you an idoit.
My brother is in Chihuahua, Mexico right now turkey hunting with my Dad. My brother has been updating his facebook status while in Mexico, and I can't bring myself to "like" any of them. No one in our family understands why my Dad and brother took such a risk with their lives to hunt in one of the worst states. Somehow by not "liking" his statuses I feel like I'm withholding my approval.
I had every intention of starting yoga after my morning sickness ended.
But I haven't.
I don't work out. Too tired and too much pain. I drink soda daily. I eat fast food. Even though I have high BS readings occasionally...I just can't give up my sweets! (I usually don't like sweets too much) .
I WILL be eating cadbury mini eggs, jelly beans, peeps, chocolate dipped peeps, peep cake, and YES...a friggin small glass of champaigne punch this Easter Sunday. I am drinking a Sonic Java Chiller as I type.
I would say flame away...but A) I don't care and B...this is FF f'n FC!
AAACK! I can't stop: I don't give a rat's a** about my shower. Someone'll throw one. They have every pregnancy. It's jeans and friggin T-shirt people! I am not searching for the perfect dress/outfit to wear. WHO the HELL cares!!!!!! I love my MIL. If she was annoying...I'd tell her to SHUT UP instead of whining about her. If SO didn't like me talking to his mom like that...he'd shut her up before she annoyed me OR go move back in with her if he was so butt-hurt about it!
I am secretly kind of happy that DH is having knee surgery on Monday because it means he will be off work for at least a month. I am looking forward to all the time we will be able to spend together, because we work opposite schedules and usually only get two nights together a week.
Also, I am a bit pissed at him because he took the week before his surgery off work, because he's afraid of hurting his knee more. I was fine with this until he tells me that now he might only be able to take one week off work when the baby arrives, instead of the two weeks we had planned on. (He actually injured his knee last fall, and has just taken steps to get it fixed now. So he's already been working on it injured for a very long time.)
I haven't talked to my labor buddy at all... I've been keeping my eye out, but haven't seen any posts from her since the list was posted.

I don't blame you one bit! You couldn't pay me enough to cross over into Mexico right now!

DH's family just found out that his younger cousin is pregnant... And apparently due a week before me! I feel bad for DH because he is really bummed and hoping that I have our LO early because this with be the first great grandchild on his dads side of the family and I know how excited he was so be able to be the first to give his grandma a great grandchild. It is nothing against her she's so sweet and was apparently hesitant to tell anyone until now but it is crazy to think that at Christmas when everyone was fussing over our news her and her BF had the same news to share! So I secretly kind of hope LO is early too as selfish as that sounds! Of course I'd rather make sure she is healthy and ready to be done cookin but she is measuring in the 80th percentile so who knows!
Sorry I typed this on my phone its a mess I know!
My shower is on June 4th, and we told some specific family members (mainly my mother's four sisters, who she is extremely close to) about the date. At the time, one of my aunts (whom I adore) mentioned she was looking at that same date to have a retirement party for my uncle. No big deal at all considering my shower is in the afternoon and my uncle's party is in the evening, so I would get to attend as well. Just last night my mom made a comment that her and her sisters were all assigned dishes to cook for my uncle's party, and some of my aunts weren't sure they would be able to make my shower because of these preparations. My mom was upset about this, and although I told her not to worry about it and it didn't bother me, between me and you ladies, it does bother me...a lot! This is my mom's first grandbaby and she wants her sisters there to celebrate his impending birth. I will be very hurt if they can't find a way to work around preparations for the other party to attend my only shower. I don't need their gifts; I want them there because I love them and they're family. It makes me beyond sad to think of them missing it.

I can't stop eating Cinnamon Toast Crunch today. I've had three BIG bowls. It's so good. I did balance it out with a salad and some veggies, but still....mmmm...
I didn't read all of the other confessions so I apologize if this is a repeat but I'm so sick of people asking me "how are you feeling?" I feel like they ask out of obligation and don't even listen to my answer half the time. I also feel like a broken record every time I answer it. Ask me something else! Anything else!

I FEEL LIKE SHOUTING THIS (hence the caps). I know a lot of ppl have had miserable pregnancies and I'm sorry for that, I really am. I have been extremely fortunate and have had an excellent pregnancy and my family knows this. Stop calling me 3x a week to ask me how I'm feeling and if I'm doing better- I was never doing poorly. Stop assuming that bc most other people throw up for the whole first tri that I did too. I STILL haven't thrown up. Maybe my time is coming during labor.
I'm about to be halfway through a bag of Nerds Bumpy Jelly Beans in celebration of passing my glucose test this week. HA take that flat fruit punch concoction!
I don't have MIL issues per se, but if she buys me one more useless piece of crap for my nursery or one more tacky outfit, I think I'm going to scream. I've got a small PBK registry and two complete major store registries for you to choose from. Buy stuff I can use, stop buying $#*T!
NBR: I cannot stand when people call my cell and leave a vm to call them. I know you called me. I have caller ID, who doesn't? I have your number. I can see I missed a call from you. My recording clearly says "Leave a detailed message and I will return your call." If you don't tell me what you want, I won't return your call- out of hormonal spite.
And I love Cadburry Eggs. I think we need a poll on this.
Mine is that I don't understand why parent's still use bumper pads in their LO's cribs after knowing it increases the risk of SIDS. It's completely irresponsible.

Oh! I do the same thing to my mom when she posts about her plastic surgery 'transformation' she is undergoing in Florida. I mean really?! Posting about your plastic surgery on fb so that all your friends and mine (of course she has ALL of my friends on her fb also, which just makes it all very embarrassing). I'm withholding my approval also!
I barely did any real work at work this week, so I took my laptop to the 3 hour draw this morning and got caught up there. Good thing too, because my boss returns from vacation on Monday
I'm kinda bummed because of the labor buddy thing. Mine sent me a pm that I responded too. I haven't heard from her since or seen her on TB.
I'm sick of friends who don't have children telling me how my life is going to be after mine are born. If you had BTDT it would be different. Someone actually told me that DH wouldn't want me anymore after he saw me give birth the first time. I guess we proved her wrong.
This, and also people who do have children. People did the same thing when we got married "Oh, things are gonna change! Your life is over!" Gee, thanks. I even got a card during my pregnancy that basically said "This card is for you because no one's going to pay attention to you anymore." I don't care if it's a little true, but man, thanks for the downer! Who writes something like that in a card?

I'm the exact same way. I appreciate the concern, but aggghhhh why all the time? And the same people! I can understand hearing it every now and then, but all the time. It's like they ask, hoping that I'll say something different, since things have been good the whole time. I'M FINE!
And I also keep getting "You shouldn't be carrying that..." and then they never offer to carry it themselves... (It's never too heavy anyway!) I've also gotten yelled at because according to some people, I look like I might be thinking of picking something up. "Don't even THINK of picking that up!"
