Re: FFFC!!

  • I got my NT scan scheduled yesterday and when the nurse told me the date (June 5th) I was super excited because it is my mom's birthday.  She went with me to the NT scan for DS (SO couldn't make it because of work) so for some reason I had in my head that she would go to this one with me too.  So I was super excited that she would get to see the baby for her birthday. 
    I sent SO an email at work telling him when the scan was and asking if he would be able to make it.  He said yes I'll be there. 
    My confession - I was bummed that he could make it Embarrassed.  I remember being so sad that he missed it with DS (that was our 1st u/s), so I'm truely happy that he will be able to make it this time.  Not sure why I was soooo bummed, but I was.

  • I ate leftover spaghetti with cheese for breakfast yesterday and I don't regret it one bite. I also feel bad but also relieved that DD is now spending the weekend with her grandparents and I get a break. I miss her terribly, but it is nice to have a break. Naps when I want them! Eat when I want to!
  • I selectively read posts, because I don't want to become afraid for my LO. I don't know if I'm going to be able to see it on u/s for a long time. While I feel terrible every time I see someone post about a loss, and I might be sending them T&P's silently... I don't read it.

    I do this too. I send my T&Ps to anyone with a loss post... but I can't open them. Not yet anyway. I need to keep only positive thoughts in my head right now so I don't worry more than I already do. :(

    Im the opposite, but also probably FFC worthy. I read them to see if I am feeling/ experiencing some of the same symptoms, just to reassure myself. I rarely comment, though, because I don't know what to say. 

  • I am scared to death of twins.  Twins run in my family a ridiculous amount, so that just adds to it.  In addition, I feel like I am bigger than I should be at almost 6 weeks, but I keep telling myself it is the typical 1st tri bloat.  Then on top of it, every time I turn around, someone else on this board is announcing twins, and I seriously want to throw up.  I am happy for everyone who is having multiples, but I am praying that I don't join that club.

    I do the same thing, and I selectively reply. I pray daily for everyone TTGP, pregnant, and those who've had a loss, even if I don't reply to a post.

    I haven't been very active on this board yet because I'm afraid that something could happen. It seems like a lot of CPs happen around 5-6 weeks, and I'm not even there yet. I'm still in a little disbelief that this is real since the only symptoms I have are being tired and having a larger appetite. I want to get to know all of you and participate more, and definitely plan to!

  • I don't understand women who don't want their husbands to be active participants in their pregnancy.  This isn't just the woman's baby. Women have a special connection to their child but that doesn't mean that men shouldn't be encouraged to develop one as well.

    Seeing how men are treated, or mistreated, during the death of a child really opened my eyes to how men are often second class citizens during pregnancy/parenthood.  

       

    P&R - have to actually do some work today.

  • I woke H up this morning even though it was his day off so he could help me get DD ready for school. I've been so sick for over two weeks and I have no freaking voice. He didn't want to keep her home today (he's been sick also), which meant I had to get up an hour earlier to get her ready and take her to daycare and I'm irritated about it.

    So I had him get up and help me get her ready because I felt so weak and sick this morning I could barely lift her and she wouldn't listen to me because I had to whisper everything.

    Also, I can't talk and I'm a journalist. I can't interview people or anything. I have one story to finish today. I did two interviews by email and have a colleague actually asking the questions for me for the third.  I feel useless and I keep coughing and everyone looks at me like I have the plague.

  • Even though it's not Friday anymore... hubby always wants to have sex, and right now even just more than a peck on the lips makes my blood boil (in a bad way!). I literally breathe a sigh of relief when he says he's tired, we'll wait until tomorrow. I can't bring myself to tell him because he would take it so personally. We normally have a very active sex life, so I'm blaming the pregnancy... he won't see it that way though!

  • I am terrified of having two kids.  1 is hard enough (although getting easier the older he gets).  I really don't know if I can do it.

  • I hate two faced bitchfaces, namely a few "women" I work with. I work third shift yet am frequently blamed for things they know I didn't do. The other day I had the audacity to complain about it and now I'm the jerk for not just taking it. I love listening to J practically fellate A with compliments, then when A isn't around awful things are said. The next day, A has nothing but shiiitty things to say about J. I wish they knew how pathetic they look. My confession is that I see myself occasionally doing these things too and I need to not do it at all. Ever.

    And then I was cranky that I had to make a trip out of my way to pick it all up.

    I'm so rational. ;-)

  • This morning I was making DH eggs and toast for breakfast.  My hand must have spazzed out or something, because I ended up accidentally dropping the toast on the floor.  I just picked it up, blew it off, and tossed it onto the plate.

    My real FFC is that I kinda got some amusement out of him eating floor toast.  I had just told him last night that the smell of eggs made me nauseous, and of course, that's what he wanted for breakfast.  So I feel it was justified:)

  • 1) I, too, am a bit scared of having 2 children.  DS can defnitely be a handful all on his own.  I fear he will be jealous and act out.

    2) I do not avoid caffiene during pregnancy.  I have a weakness for regular Coke from a fountain machine.  I do watch myself, but even the March of Dimes says up to 200 mg of caffeine a day is acceptable, and I would have to drink 72 ounces of Coke to surpass that limit.  (I allow myself 32 ounces.)

    Ditto.  I drank Diet Coke during my first pregnancy, and I'm drinking it with this one too.  Maybe 40 ounces/day.  Sometimes less.

    I think it was mostly that I didn't want to explain to him *exactly* what I needed. Mainly because I came home and announced that I hoped to poop sometime in the next week. The good man laughed, put me to bed and took the dog to the park.
