Let's hear 'em.

If you need instructions: Friday Flame-Free Confessions. Warning- not always flame-free.

Side note: Hating all the drive by mucous plug posts is not a confession.

Kfran84 · November 2013

I just took my first prenatal all week. I have sucked at taking them the past two-three weeks just because it kept slipping my mind.

Kfran84 · November 2013

Another: I gave away candy from my baby shower last night. I had about 60 blue suckers shaped like a baby foot. I told the kids they were "monster feet" suckers. They were so excited.

babymama619 · November 2013

I ate kit kats and coffee for breakfast.

katie.725 · November 2013

Last night I had two egg sandwiches for dinner... sunny side up... Hello Yolks!! *not the first time*

I had breakfast for dinner last night too! Runny yolks and all.

I really didn't know that was a concern until over halfway through the pregnancy.

I've told my boss I've had to log out of work early several times over the past few weeks for doctor appointments. I don't have that many appointments and when I have them they're for after I'm done with work. I just don't feel like working and/or I want to take a nap.

rbtrumpet · November 2013

I'm really not excited that it's November - probably because I don't anticipate baby being here until December :-p

I've also conveniently given up caring about my weight - convenient because we have a TON of Halloween candy left over!

. I've been really good all pregnancy, especially since I started overweight. I figure I have 3-5 weeks left, and I can't gain *that* much weight in that time, and I can lose it all once baby comes - right??? O:-)

ETA: I'm totally wearing flip flops at work right now too - who cares if it's November, and it's not professional, I hate swollen feet in shoes!

fluttergirlmoonchild79 · November 2013

Trick or treating got pushed to today where I live because the weather was horrible yesterday. I bought candy even though we probably won't be home during trick or treat time. I bought stuff I like to eat simply because my dietician said Halloween was a cheat day so I plan on eating candy tonight.

mmm50 · November 2013

I didn't open the door when my niece and nephews stopped over for trick or treat last night. Our trick or treat was Saturday (which I told my SIL in case they wanted to come) and I dropped a million hints that I'm not in the mood for visitors. She has a tendency to do the "pop over" especially when she wants to AW her kids and overstay her welcome. If she could just stop over stay for 10 minutes and leave I totally would have answered the door. But every time she comes over it turns into 2 hours of her sitting on the couch while her children run screaming through my not-so-kid friendly house. I also probably would have answered if she had called or texted me beforehand (so I could put on pants)-- but she didn't.

She texted me later and I pretended that I had been sleeping and answered her text a couple hours later.

babymama619 · November 2013

Wow, @mmm50, you win. My mouth actually dropped open. Good for you though

@brittannie19 - mine is swollen too

Yeah, I felt like a bitch for a while, but my SIL needs to learn sometime. And it would have been different if I hadn't seen them in their costumes--- but I was at my MIL's after school so I had seen them all already (where I had hinted that I was going home to sleep). Shit- if she would have even texted "hey we're heading over" I would have put on pants and invited them in.

Holy crap! I never knew this was a concern. I've been eating eggs with runny yolks for months! Oh well, baby is due soon so no point in worrying about it now.

My irrational pregnant brain hates everything my mom has to say. The other day I was with a group of women and my mom, and we were talking about epidurals. I plan to go epidural-free, but I am prepared to change my mind once I am actually experiencing labor. I get the "just you wait" a lot on that topic but it doesn't really bother me because I know I might change my mind. My mom states, matter-of-factly "you won't need it." And it REALLY pissed me off, like what if I do need it? Let me worry about what I need. Ah I'm such a bitch at this point.

argh! My mom keeps telling me how terrible/awful/horrible women are who get epidurals. My mom (one of the least healthy/organic/crunchy people I know) has made this her soapbox.

I hope to go natural, but will FULLY accept an epidural if it comes to it. I may lie to my mom if I do get one just because I really don't want to hear about how terrible of a person I am for making my own choices...

So yeah - I'm there with you

Zilly13 · November 2013

I never went into active labor with DD1 so I have no idea what to expect. I've been having a lot of BH/contractions and weird pains & symptoms I did not ever have during my last pg, so I'm wondering if things are getting started.

The FFFC part - I'm not mentally ready for this. Not at all.

mstamant · November 2013

I'm so excited for November, not only because my daughter will be here soon, but because Christmas music plays around the clock starting today! I'm not putting my tree up yet (mostly because SO won't let me) but I will crank the holiday songs SHAMELESSLY.

hollowway · November 2013

My MW suggested trying castor oil to help induce labor if I go over my due date (I've done my research and its been used for centuries for this purpose)... After the total mind fuck I had lastnight/this morning with contractions every 5 minutes and now nothing, I'm considering taking it now. I probably won't, I'm not due til the 12th (38+4) but seriously. I had contractions for 6 hours lastnight and then they just stopped.

TexanArrington · November 2013

I plan on putting up my Christmas decorations this weekend. I do not want to do it with a newborn around. Sorry, not sorry.

[Deleted User] · November 2013

I confess- I really wanted to post about my "bloody show" and all night contractions, mostly because my dr didn't tell me what I want to hear. 4-1-1 then come in. Ugh that doesn't help me through the 9 hours of 8-1-1 wtf is going on feeling!

I've completely ditched my GD diet. I'm over it. I want cookies.

I'm right there with you. I have a few days of testing strips left. When they're gone, I'm done. I'm not spending the money for more testing strips when I have a finite amount of time left. I've also been increasing my "cheats."

wendy2613 · November 2013

I have stinky gas and just let em rip in my car. I also have a 2 year old DD. Guess who I blame on bombing my car? Yep, it's not me...

I hate people who think just stopping by is ok and if or when they do it, I do not open the door. It's rude not to call and ask if you want guest and just show up.

fitmama418 · November 2013

I just ordered myself a small pizza from Papa John's for lunch (yes AND one of those cookie things you guys keep talking about so I can try it)..and I only got a small so this way I don't have to share with DH when he gets home.

MY PIZZA.

Just look at that face though!!

She could have totally eaten that bean burrito (gas culprit)

artistlife · November 2013

I am currently sitting on my couch in only underwear. If I could pick DS up without putting pants on, I would.

Right!? I'm sure that my DH is already so turned off by all the other pregnancy side effects that I don't feel like I need to add this to the list. AND DD could do no wrong in DH's eyes so this is just the way it has to be .
:-\"

I completely know how you feel, except I feel that way all the time - not just when I'm pregnant.
:-S I so wish it wasn't like that. I'm blaming it on the fact that my parents were teens when they had my sister and I. Like somehow losing out on that time in her life makes our personalities clash.

MrsApplelovesMrApple · November 2013

I have a few this time:

1. Daniel has been pretty easy (at least easier than my first) but I'm still not doing dishes or laundry because I just don't feel like it.

2. I love my little guy but I can honestly say he is not the cutest baby I've ever seen. I haven't told my husband this because every one says he looks just like him and I don't want to hurt his feelings. I've seen pictures of my husband and he wasn't a cute baby either but he's a stud muffin now so I think some features just have to be grown into.

3. I bragged about fitting into my pre-pregnancy jeans on Facebook. I feel silly about doing it now but it was one part- "WOW! I can't believe they fit!" and one part- "Take that everyone who kept telling me how huge I am!"

4. I had to dig out my "What to Expect the First Year" because I swear Daniel is smiling and cooing and I don't remember my first smiling until month 3. I'm a STM but I can't remember everything from 2+ years ago. But the book says it's possible (he'll be a month in 2 days) so I MIGHT not be crazy after all.

I farted as I read this. Mine stink too. I take full blame. Sup?

Maimes10 · November 2013

My sister brought me a bag of homemade mini donuts last night. I bet there were 18 in the bag. There are only about 8 left.

brandeeteer · November 2013

After my OB appointment today I ran by McD's for lunch - I ordered 3 sandwiches and ate them all in the car before I got back to the office.

I don't even like McD's!

amberrrjade · November 2013

There is a small part of me that wants to 1 up @smilz4782 and post a picture of my pee bag.

I warn DH when I have gas... his reponse "Do I need to sleep in the other room?"

fluttergirlmoonchild79 · November 2013

I'm hoping (God willing) that I'll get to take DH out to dinner for his birthday tonight. I told him we can go wherever he wants. I keep nudging him in certain directions. (This is all if his parents aren't taking him/us out). I'd rather take DH out than have to have dinner with his parents. They pick sucky places.

I hate Christmas music, especially the campy shit; it makes me want to stab my eardrums.

Ditto. You can only hear so many versions of the Little Drummer Boy before you want to hurt someone.

amberrrjade · November 2013

If I wasn't pregnant and was still working starting today my kids would be forced to listen to Taylor Swift's "Last Christmas" until Christmas Eve during naptime. That's two hours of that song on repeat. And when it wasn't naptime they'd be forced to endure "All I want for Christmas is a Hippopotamus" every time I passed the CD player to put it back on.

I didn't want PB sandwich for lunch... I got a footlong chili cheese dog and chili cheese fries... who wants to take bets that I will go into labor tonight after eating that cluster???

ETA: I did NOT poop my pants..but with my luck I will...

sla626 · November 2013

So I took an extra long shower because I am bored and it felt good to get clean. I decided to shave the lady bits. I had no idea that the linea nigra line goes all the way down lol.

thelastunicornxo · November 2013

This morning our master toilet started leaking from the tank and nearly flooded the bathroom.... I told dh I have no idea what happened. Truth? I've clogged that toilet so many times in the last few weeks I'm sure I somehow broke it!

MrsBynum0505 · November 2013

My 2 1/2 year old brother went trick or treating and I raided his bag and took ALL of his Kit-Kats and Reese's. He kept saying "no sissy, those mine" so is reply with "can you share with baby valerie?" And he sweetly put all the candy on my belly and said "here go Balerie, love you"

It was sweet. He can't say V's apparently... But I got my CANDY!!!!
