I don't understand how so many people can not fart in front of their DHs. How is that possible? And peeing with the door closed?!? If I even try my toddler is banging on the door going crazy. I leave it wide open because she likes to watch, grab TP for me, and flush. Shame has gone out the window over here.
I was thinking the same thing! I haven't gone to the bathroom with door closed since DD learned to walk at 9 months.

I'm with you too. I used to close the bathroom door, but that has gone out the window with a toddler.
I don't know what I would do if I couldn't fart in front of my DH. The pregnant me farts up a storm all evening. I joke that I store it up throughout the day since I don't want to fart at work.
@Zilly13 I'm pretty sure I've got my Karma in check, you might want to watch yours though....
Ha! My DD1 was a nightmare as an infant (no sleeping, zero self-soothing skills, wouldn't take a paci) so hopefully karma is on my side this time around.
I am super grumpy at DH because he isn't making anything about me. I feel neglected. My problem is that I can't act grumpy towards him, so I just ugly cry when I'm alone. I know I shouldn't be grumpy and I'm being selfish, but he hasn't done anything nice for me since my bday, last June, without getting pissy for one reason or another.
I don't know of anything cheerful to say to make it better. Just wanted to give you super HUGE ((HUGS)). >:D<
Thanks sweetie! I guess my FFFC should be that I feel like this but know I am a serious bitch about nagging him. All. The. Time.
I'm just going to lay all of the awesomeness out there for ya:
I am still in my pre-preggo clothes with more room to grow, I haven't had to buy a single maternity item. I sleep great (generally from about 8:30 pm - 5:30 am), its hard to stay awake once I get home from work. @fluttergirlmoonchild79 you and I are in the same boat!! Oh and I eat two lunches.... I am so hungry during the day! I eat what I bring for lunch and then sometimes end up leaving work to grab something else (yesterday it was Jimmy Johns), 30 minutes after I finish eating 1st lunch!
You do realize that you're doomed to have a child that doesn't sleep, eat or self soothe, right?! If I was you I'd totally be one and done. No chance of tempting the pregnancy gods a second time around....
Why would you say something like that? Jealous much? Cursing someone with an unhappy child and telling that person not to have anymore kids is just out right cruel.

Oh please. You obviously missed the sarcasm that was intended.
Wow - I think I farted in front of DH on our first date. It's natural and human. I say if you can't be yourself around your DH then who can you be yourself around.
I have another one now that lunch is over. My boss asked me to go to lunch to discuss business stuff with him. After I found out he was paying, I added some extras to my lunch that I wouldn't have if I was paying. Carrot Cake and Parfait both found their way to my tray.
1. I'm so cranky towards everyone I'm worried it will transfer to LO. I think I used to be a nice person, but now I really can't remember.
2. I'm like the worst employee right now. I barely go above basic expectations and my bosses still think in great. Wtf? Their last nanny must have really sucked.
3. I'm terrified of ppd.
4. @dobrydney I'm with ya. 12.5lb up until my 36 week appointment, then I gained 5! They told me that same thing, "it happens". (Mine probably is because I'm sitting on the couch eating donuts.
5. Stopped at Arby's for lunch...and portillo's for chocolate cake. Only shared the fries with the kiddo.

I may be wrong, but I think you crossed the fun sarcasm line with the one and done comment. Nothing about her statement said "I'm incapable if taking care of more than one child."
ETA: In any case, IMO you failed at snark in this comment.
@kellykinns sorry you are so stressed out about this!! >:D< Maybe thinking about this as just one of those learning experiences that parenthood is unpredictable could help put things in perspective? Fwiw, congrats on making it this far I have a cousin who is getting inducted at 36, yes 36w, because of her anxiety about a healthy baby. Wtf? But I have another that was induced this week at 40 and she ended up with a csection because her uterus just wasn't ready. Just breath and take it a day at a time.
I may be wrong, but I think you crossed the fun sarcasm line with the one and done comment. Nothing about her statement said "I'm incapable if taking care of more than one child."
It was a sarcastic comment stemming from blogs on the internet where Mommy Code is not to AW things other new moms struggle with (awesome weight loss, great baby that sleeps, etc). I don't know why you read so much into the one and done comment - I have a bunch of friends who had bad pregancies and won't go through it again. It has nothing to do with being capable of caring for a kid and I'm not even sure how you got that from my (sarcastic) statement.
I had sex last night and it hurt a lot. It made me definitely not want to squeeze a 6-9 pound child out of there.
We did on Wednesday morning and yeah, that was NOT comfortable. Which is too bad, because I plan on making DH give it up as much as possible until LO comes...
Amen. I already told him today "You HAVE to have sex with again tonight." LOL
My FFFC is that we don't have a bathroom door in our bedroom. It's just wiiiide open for all noises and smells to come out.
I usually brush my teeth while he's taking his morning poop. Sometimes I ask for a courtesy flush, but that's about it.
So this not farting or peeing in front of each other thing is blowing my mind right now.
Our bathroom is tiny, and there's only one, and the door doesn't close right, so we're pretty much in the same boat. I have to remind myself to shut the door when we have visitors over! ">
My FFFC is that last week I bought two pairs of over-sized fleece pants "because it was cold" but I've just been wearing them non-stop because they are comfy and soft. Even out in public. And to sleep in.
(Hey, it's easier than trying to deal with getting dressed every morning. Pants, man - why are you so friggin' exhausting?)

I still pee/poop with the door shut. DD wants to come in, so I tell her first so she can come in and not bang on the door. My H pees with the door open but poops with it shut, that is just a level of I don't want to know that I can't get behind for some reason. And yes, he saw a human come out of my vag, he just doesn't need to see me poppin a squat.
However, I can't imagine not farting around my H. I am a gassy person, that would just not fly. I would die.

Exactly Alexis!! Cursing unborn babies, not cool.... I would rehearse your snark a little better next time before you put it out there! Adios @Zilly13
I feel like I'm just confessing away today. I have been bugging DH to take me to this restaurant where we used to live, but it's an hour away and we've been busy. He has agreed to take me tonight and I'm so ordering a juicy half raw steak.
I am so paranoid about my water breaking in bed and ruining our new pillow-top mattress that I laid trash bags and beach towels on my side of the bed under the sheet when I washed them on Tuesday. Now every time I shift it sounds all crinkly and DH complains, but I told him if I take it off he's cleaning up any fluid/blood/etc. that gets on the mattress if my water breaks or PP. Sorry not sorry hubs.
I have another one! I had only gained 15 pounds this whole pregnancy. Then, at my 35 week appointment last week, I had gained 6 pounds in 2 weeks! Luckily my Dr. is really chill and said that sometimes that happens because it's your body's way of preparing for blood loss etc. but I was like seriously Doc I'm not just sitting on the couch watching TV eating donuts all day (although that sounds amazing). I have another appointment on Monday...we'll see.
No joke doing this right now!!! I bought them for DH tomorrow to take to work and at this point I have eaten too many to let him know they ever existed
I take clothes out of the dirty hamper on a regular basis because I can't walk downstairs in the morning to find clean ones, or there are no clean ones. And yes they have smelled before and I don't give a flying f*uck to be honest. I spray perfume and go on my merry way to work. In fact I think the perfume is currently wearing off my yoga pants...oh well!!
@mmm50, have you thought about a mattress protector? I just put mine on last night. I figure if my water doesn't break the dog or the baby will eventually pee or puke in the bed and it will be worth the $30...and no crinkling.
I have one friend who didn't know her husband was suffering from a serious stomach bug because he wouldn't even talk to her about having diarrhea for 5 days straight. He ended up hospitalized.
My other friend who doesn't poop/fart in front of her husband also makes him wash his own sweaty gym clothes. She says it's not sexy to deal with those sides of each other.
I'm judging quite a few of the people on this board lately...... There are a handful that if I knew IRL I would tell them that I think they are trash. That's right, I actually am meaner IRL than hiding behind a computer. And if you have to ask if it's you, then it probably is!

@babymomma619. So you're babysitting, fell asleep on the couch while the kid was awake and only feeding him french fries? If the parents think you are doing awesome still, like you claim I doubt they know about any of this! I would fire your ass! Maybe that's my FFFC [-X
... I went to Walmart in my pjs today... I was THAT Walmart shopper... Sweat pants (no panties), a tank top and a hoodie (no bra), messy hair in a bun, no make-up and crocks. I'm not ashamed. Go ahead and judge me.

I'm not looking forward to my mom coming for two weeks to help after the baby is born. I know she wants to help, but she requires a lot of energy. I should have grown a set and limited her to a week.

Second this. We got a waterproof mattress cover at BB&B and put it on weeks ago. It's not plastic and doesn't crinkle at all.
