You know you're pregnant when.....
Hey ladies we haven't had one of these in a while. Please share your embarrassing, awful, awkward moments or whatever you've got!

Re: You know you're pregnant when.....
You gun it to the store after work to get totinos pizza and only that and then when leaving start to panic you might not have ranch at home and seriously debate going back just for that...
yea, that happened.
I have a little bottle I carry in my purse and a big bottle for at home needs and to refill the little bottle (those little ones are expensive!).
You sneeze and worry you may have peed a little....
That was me this afternoon. Thankfully I was at home!
Actually, we just had this same thread posted yesterday. You can find many answers here: https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/67683333.aspx
I'm not trying to be rude, just wanted to point you in the the direction of many other responses. I'd recommend lurking a bit before making a thread, especially when you claim it hasn't been seen in a while. You might also want to change your settings to "most recent post," which can be found at the bottom of the January page. This will help you with future posts.

Actually, it was quite the opposite. I happen to have had a fabulous day!! I just thought I'd give the newbie some advice before a bunch of others get annoyed with her. I was never mean or b!tchy and instead responded in a kind and mature manner. Instead I linked the original post, gave her some tips, and a piece of advice I wish I had received my first few days on TB.
You, however, did the exact opposite in this response.
Besides, I hate Cheerios!

You didn't offend me, I was simply giving you some advice.
You're new, we get it. Some girls just get annoyed with the repetitive posts that are done daily, that's all. I just wanted to give you a heads up for the future.

LOL, today's thread definitely gives more insight into what it's like to be pregnant than yesterday's!!! You ladies crack me up.
Just because one is a new Bumpie doesn't mean she is new to The Internet, including forum etiquette. I think it's a way bigger faux pas to criticize someone for starting a thread, even if you sweeten your criticism with "I'm not trying to be rude..."
I have major prego brain. Yesterday morning I grabbed a prenatal and not two seconds after taking it thought "did I grab a prenatal?" and I'm saying words wrong, I meant to say prego last night when talking with DH and said prengo. Lol happens all the time to me.....
You know your pregnant when you stack up pillows and blankets around you in a failed attempt to squeeze one more night of tummy sleeping in.
You walk across the kitchen for something, and spend the next minute staring blankly trying to remember what it was.
You're right, perhaps she is not new to forum etiquette. Although she likely wouldn't have made the post if that were the case. I absolutely was not being rude or trying to be sweet for that matter, just stating the facts.
If you're not new to the internet or forums, you would know to not make assumptions about people's tones. "Pissing in someone's cheerios," however is a rude statement.
The only time I'd consider myself a b!tch on these boards is when someone is MUD. So, if you too stick around for a bit, you'll learn to understand TB boards and the girls that post on them.
PS. If you look around on some of the other boards or if the OP did something similar on several of the other boards, they would have ripped her to shreds. So, my friend, I most certainly was not being rude.

You know you're pregnant when.. You read a post about another bumpie craving Totinos pizza, and have to have it for dinner THAT night because it sounds SOO good. Lol. Bonus: You think you're going to throw up so you run to the bathroom, dry heave, and wind up peeing your pants a little instead.. ::grumble::
DING DING DING!
It is akin to saying something like. . . "I'm not racist but. . . "
