Can we start something new?

V&G101808 · March 2013

While I do love me a good b!tch session, there are also many many things I'm grateful and thankful for, especially during this time of my life.

So... how about Thankful Tuesdays (TT)?

amarissa85 · March 2013

Thankful that I finally get to be with DH. After 20+ months there will be no more goodbye no more see you in a few months, or at least until he gets sent to another unit. Finally get to be happy instead of miserable.

V&G101808 · March 2013

I'll start things off - of course my list of things I'm thankful for is very long but today especially I'm thankful for my inlaws.

They came over yesterday to let the dogs out while we were at work and also dropped off dinner for my husband and I. My inlaws are super sweet and have taken me in as their own daughter. They love me and spoil me like one of their own - I'm one lucky girl.

Cosmic+Love · March 2013

I am all for that!

Yesterday, a family friend gave me their used (but looks like brand spanking new) bassinet! We were planning on having the baby sleep in our room in a pack n'play, but now we don't have to go out and buy one.

Also, I'm thankful for my new maternity jeans. Finally found a pair that fit my legs and bum, but provide enough expansion for 3 Thanksgiving dinners.

Thankful for this baby in my belly FINALLY! Thankful for my husband who has been by my side the whole time TTC and now... Thankful for family who are just as excited as we are and thankful for my job for being so understanding about the pregnancy process!

afrochick09 · March 2013

Oooh! I like this idea. Yesterday we got to spend an hour looking at our little girl. Dh took the day off, so it was amazing spending the day with him after. The greatest part of the u/s is they couldn't measure her spine so we have to go back again for another one. Sweet! I'll look at my LO again.

This!! Every time I feel a little kick, I feel so blessed!

LokiLahve · March 2013

I'm thankful for waiting 10 years after we were married to have a child. It's not what we planned but due to fertility issues that's how it happened. We spent the last year TTC with assustance and after 3 rounds if iui here we are!!
I guess my point is I'm thankful we had time to enjoy each other and better establish ourselves financially. Knowing we can give our child the best and that we know what to expect from eachother is a very humbling and wonderful feeling!

Just want to add in no way am I implying having LO right after marriage or before is wrong...this is just what I feel was best for us.

I love thankful Tuesday btw! Great idea!

beanbag2013 · March 2013

I am thankful for vacation starting tomorrow. Only 2.5 more hours left of work until next Tuesday!!

I am thankful to all my family and friends who already love my baby boy, have bought him gifts and are beyond excited to meet him.

And I am extra thankful to my husband. He is remodeling our kitchen, working full-time and taking 2 college courses and yet still makes time to pamper his pregnant wife.

ELauren88 · March 2013

I like this idea!

I am very thankful for the opportunity to be a mommy for the first time, and for an amazing, supportive husband.

I'm also very thankful to have such a great OB. He's pretty legit, and I don't think I'd have been half as calm through this whole pregnancy if it hadn't been for him!

LJR 84 · March 2013

I'm thankful for the time change! My kids have been going to bed at their normal bed times, but sleeping in until 630-7 instead of their normal 5AM wake up time! It's been SO nice. I hope it lasts.

kwhite27 · March 2013

I am thankful for my hubby. Although he can drive me crazy (they all do, right? Smile ) he truly is an amazing man. When he is away for work I realize very quickly how much he actually does for me and supports me. Sometimes I feel as though I may take that for granted; so I am thankful for him.

I feel like one of the lucky ones!

Lastnight he drove out to get me a Skor Blizzard from DQ- OH SO GOOD!

magdalina.h · March 2013

Sounds perfect! I only b!tch to MH about my pregnancy woes because I know that should have been moms still check this board and I know that it hurts to see a post all about b!tching.

I'm thankful for my company. They are very understanding and flexible with my schedule due to me being high risk.

coraggiosa · March 2013

I am so thankful for my husband. I was up at 5:30 this morning puking from an awful migraine. He got up, held my hair, and helped me get into the shower, which is one of my many lines of attack for migraines. He then got made me a soft pretzel, got me some tylenol with caffeine, and grabbed a cold compress for my head. Then he scratched my back until I fell asleep again. Poor guy didn't fall back asleep himself though!

traia · March 2013

I am thankful for my kids. I am thankful for them smiling at me and telling me they love me, when i am having the worst day. Im so glad that sometimes they just let me watch them play instead of wanting to be held 24 7. And even though im pregnant, i love that they still cuddle me, and use me as a jungle gym if im lying on the floor. They
are such an amazing blessing, and i cant wait for this new blessing to join us.

nnikki10 · March 2013

Lovely idea..I'm thankful for my DH's grandpa who is making us a gliding cradle by hand for the baby. So very sweet.

NiksMama · March 2013

I'm thankful for my husband. He works so hard to give me the opportunity to stay home and raise our son. It means so much to me te be able to spend each day watching DS grow and learn. I could never do it without the support my husband provides.

ktbear9512 · March 2013

I love this idea!

I am thankful for the new job I started yesterday within my same company. And also my new boss who is sooo supportive of my pregnancy and is willing to help me with everything.

starshower22 · March 2013

Great idea!!!

I'm thankful that my hubby and family have been extremely supportive during the difficulties we've faced this pregnancy. Having their love and support means more than I could ever say!

AmeliaKris · March 2013

I'm thankful for my family. I'm also thankful we have food, clothes, and a warm house. We may not have enough for lots of extras, but we are rich in what matters.

afrochick09 · March 2013

I am thankful for the amazing weather we had this past weekend. Finally I was able to go for a walk and not feel like such a couch potato.

skittles230 · March 2013

I'm thankful for the week I get to spend with SD, SO for being freaking awesome and making me biscuits and gravy for breakfast, and I'm thankful that I can finally feel the baby moving consistently, it's just sooo reassuring that everything is alright

V&G101808 · March 2013

I know this board isn't about rainbows and butterflies but this post brings a huge smile to my face. It's so sweet reading what everyone is thankful for. Cue the rainbow!

PrettyAccountant · March 2013

I am thankful for my DH and to G-d for giving me this baby growing in my belly. I know I have a long way ahead of me before I G-d willing get my take home baby but for today I am thankful for a loving husband and for my future daughter.

theatrelily · March 2013

I am grateful that everything went well with my anatomy scan, and that I got to see my daughter move.

I am grateful that my husband is so over-the-moon excited that we're having a girl, and that after an ectopic rupture and a mc that we are finally starting our family.

I am grateful that a (better) job opened up for my husband closer to my in-laws.

I am grateful that my graduate school is willing to work with me to finish my degree once I move, making slight changes that will allow me to replace my two remaining face-to-face classes with a work-study option.

I am grateful that Spring Break is next week, and while I don't have the whole week off, the campus should be a lot less busy for us poor staffers left behind.

And chocolate. I am grateful for chocolate. Let's all have a moment of respect for the Cadbury mini eggs.

LOL! I love this! I am totally stealing this quote...HAHAHA. Smile

Lilmrslay · March 2013

Loving this thread! I am so thankful for the miracle of this LO I am carrying, after what felt like a long and trying journey. I am so grateful to my husband who loves me, supports me, and makes me feel like the most beautiful women alive, even on my most hideous days. I am thankful for the life we have created together, and the opportunity to work from home on my passion, knowing I will also be able to spend as much time as I want with LO when he/she arrives.

BoxerMom21 · March 2013

I'm thankful for DD. This morning before I left for work she gave me a big hug and said, "Luv oh momma" and my heart just melted. She's amazing.

MommyAmes2 · March 2013

Good idea!

I am thankful for my hubby. He worked from 7pm to 7am last night. He came home just in time to see me throwing up in the driveway before taking DD to school. So he took her instead of going to bed, so I could rest. Dang morning sickness.

Sascha3 · March 2013

I am grateful my husband is so ambitious, hardworking and likable that he got 2 huge promotions in a 6 month period. And he got a huge bonus check last week!

I am also grateful his position is at one of the most popular new casinos on the strip and I get to see amazing free concerts all summer long!

havingaleo · March 2013

I'm thankful I live in beautiful California with my beautiful wife and can wear flip flops and sun dresses in March. :

piperjayne · March 2013

I'm thankful that winter is almost over and that I've got my energy back. Also that I get to see my family this weekend. I miss them so much!

lilav8tor · March 2013

I am thankful for my loving DH. He has been such a rock during days when I felt like poo, making sure that he helps in any way that he can.

I am also thankful for my hair appointment this evening - as my hair is quite thick and it will be nice to get it thinned out so that it hopefully helps with the headaches I have been getting for the past week or so!

Charmed181 · March 2013

I am thankful for three days off to spend with my babies, especially this week since they both have their birthdays and I'm having trouble getting over the fact that they are growing up. The extra snuggles are helping.

I am thankful that while I am home these three days, DH is working day shift so we can have dinner together as a family... Something we don't get to do often, so when it happens we cherish it.

And most importantly, I am thankful for the failed condom that resulted in this LO. I always dreamed of having three children, since I was a little girl. DH was one and done. We compromised with two, but I guess the cosmos decided we needed three! And I am thankful that DH seems more excited than I thought he would be, now that the shock has worn off.

kelseyholmes88 · March 2013

I love this idea, it's so uplifting instead of reading all these rude posts that make you want to shut the computer/phone off.

I'm really thankful for how helpful DH has been through all this. I feel like I'm complaining about all the little things and he has been so supportive and so excited. I love to see him get pumped about being a dad

N_Koz · March 2013

Thankful that we finally sold our house in Tennessee we close April 1st and can stop paying mortgage and start saving for a new house. Thankful I have the most wonderful husband anyone could ask for and truly thankful to finally be pregnant with what so far looks like a healthy peanut.
