    I think sushi is gross. I think I am the only person on the planet who feels this way.

    You're not.  I HATE sushi.

    Same here. I'll tolerate Philly rolls, but always order the teriyaki option if it is available.

    Wow. Feels nice to not be alone on this for once.

    No, I completely agree! The texture of the stuff they use to wrap it freaks me out!

    most sushi is gross I agree...

    Butthurt is one of my most favorite terms...maybe because my husband is in the Army and it is one of the nicer things that pops out of a soldiers mouth? haha.

     and finally my UO: GTFO the fact that I get an ultrasound at every single visit already. We live in Germany and German doctors think it is "the dark ages" to not use the equipment they have there to make sure everything is okay. I'm sorry that it pisses people off that I get them so frequently but really...would you refuse FREE ultrasounds if they were offered? NO you wouldn't so meh. AND...yes I'm going to post them on FB...my family lives 5000 miles away and it is the most convenient way to share. 

     I'm also sick of being discouraged from attempting a natural birth. How is what happens inside my body, in my vagina, or in my spine anyone else's business? oh wait..it isn't.

    I don't like sushi either!

    MrsMabrey - I actually would refuse an u/s at every visit - they just aren't necessary. Plus being team green and having one of my best friends have an u/s tech spoil their surprise at 35 weeks, I'm terrified of having someone slip it. So I'll take as few u/s as possible!

    eta - that makes it sound like I would refuse to ever have one lol. I just mean I wouldn't want one every time.

    The million and one 'IT'S A ....' posts make me roll my eyes. I haven't opened a single one.
    I'll admit that they are starting to annoy me, but it's only because I'm a brat and am getting frustrated that I won't know what I'm having for a while yet. But I totally plan to announce here when I find out. Is that AWy? I guess so, lol. But I definitely want to know what some others are having. I hope my announcement is taken well and not as an annoying tidbit of unwanted info, ha. Are you team green, Dumble?

    Yep, how'd you know? ;)

    I don't think they are AWy, just... idk. It's like in the beginning when every post was 'BFP!' 'I'm due in June too!' etc... it's the same thing over and over, and my answer is the same thing every time, just a generic 'congrats' and I'd rather just not reply at all. So I don't! Not expecting anyone to agree with me, which is why I posted it as a UO ;)

    I understand the repetitiveness can get annoying but having an end-of-the-month due date, I hope to post and still get a couple congrats when it's my turn to find out and announce the sex! LOL 

    i know right! And if people don't get excited for me I'm going to say "are you kidding! Do you know how many times I typed 'congrats boys are so fun!' I the last two months?" And then I'll cry. So fair warning in two months, y'all best get excited for me :) 

    fwiw, when this kid is born I will announce what it is then! So I guess that may make me a hypocrite. But it's different then since not as many people saying it at once ;) Or maybe it's not and I'm just obnoxious lol.

    I dislike raw fish sushi.  I am not a fan of the texture of it.  I like the "fake" sushis like cream cheese etc, but raw fish sushi ... no thanks!

    Because it's the same post over and over and overandoverandover and there are only ever two different answers inside.

    Hilarious. lol

    pregnancy related: I don't understand whey people go to the ER in first tri, especially early first tri for spotting. The only thing the ER tells people is "threatened miscarriage" and sends them home which of course totally freaks people out until they see their OB and find out everything is fine.

    non-pregnancy related: Greek yogurt is gross. I don't get the hype. Also, ever since John Stamos started peddling it, in my mind Greek yogurt= semen. I have the sense of humor of a 12 year old boy.

    This is hilarious. I hope it doesn't mess with my Greek yogurt love. I've always preferred my yogurt thick. That sounds really gross after your Stamosism.

    I do think that the yogurts flavored like sweets are nasty. Like Boston cream pie and apple turnover. Yuck. I only like the fruit flavored ones.

    If this is in response to another UO in this post, I believe she was referring to ELECTIVE ultrasounds. If it is standard procedure for your OB to do a u/s at every appointment, I would think that's a whole different thing. I sure wouldn't refuse either! Kind of jealous actually, I love getting to see LO!

    I do not understand all the haters of elective ultrasounds....if you have the cash and feel like looking at your baby for whatever reason....um, why not?

    Well the results aren't as accurate for one. I was told boy at 16 weeks--but by 20 weeks it was clear she was a girl. Mostly I am not a fan of them because I'm still angry that I paid money only to be told the wrong thing. I know most of them are correct, but I'd rather wait a few weeks and know with nearly 100% certainty.

    Gotcha. I was thinking it was because of something different (see Skio's post). I actually love seeing them--I get all excited thinking of how excited I'll be when I get to find out Big Smile

    They get repetitive in the content but also the answers and I'm always at a bit of a loss. Obviously we are all congratulating everyone, regardless of the outcome, so it seems superfluous. Though it does make me tempted to write "Aw man that sucks," on one of them because I'm evil like that.

    Maybe I'll just announce that I'm having a hermaphrodite. :)

    But see, that is completely different because when you announce after the fact, there should be included photos... and photos, make all the difference. A hundred bits of text? Blah. A hundred birth announcements full of pictures of fresh, bundled babes? Bliss. 

    lol I like you.

    Also, I think that 3D/4D u/s are creepy, no matter what stage-- and seriously, do they ever actually look like the baby when the baby comes out? 

    The tech doing my 12w switched it over for a while and my baby looked like it was made from wax!! It was super creepy.

    I think push presents are stupid. Yes, I will be the one giving birth. Who is the one running around our house, moving and unpacking by himself while he waits on me hand and foot and also works super hard all day at a job that requires hard physical labor? That would be my husband. Does he get a present, too? He is the one who deserves it. 

    I do too. I feel that people who have money for something extravagant likely have what they need or want or would just get it.

    ETA: I'm also at a point where I don't feel like I need any more "stuff."
