I cried this weekend because SO still hasn't felt the baby from the outside. I know it's still so early (I'm 20 weeks) and the baby is still tiny but I was just so sad that he can't share the excitement with me. It kind of makes me feel bad about my extra fluff too, like it's my fault

but he is still patiently waiting and being as sweet as ever when I cry about things I don't need to. He's awesome

And I'm an irrational mess lol

As of tonight, I know what it feels like to get kicked in the bladder. And boy is that so uncomfortable! What will the next 20 weeks bring? :-S

I feel like that's this child's favorite place to be! Not comfortable at all!

I've been meaning to get up for the last 20 fucking minutes! 'Ill just see what they posted...*click*' Okay time to eat something. Ah! Someone replied in this other thread, I'll just see what they posted, then I'll get up...*click* HELP MEEE I'm going to be a corpse with a phone in my hand, I can't stop

Yep, that's me! That's why my butt is falling asleep right now. I just have a hard time leaving TB along and getting off the couch.

MrsL13 · November 2013

Ugh. I finally found a pair of pant that are comfy, but there khakis and I can't find a shirt or shoes to wear with them. Ugh ugh ugh.

The only person who awkwardly touches my belly is the 8th grade girl I mentor. She's an awkward kid so I shouldn't be surprised....

Also- there was an accident on the road I needed to turn down to get home so I had to go super far out of my way (I'm not complaining- the poor person in the wreck has it worse than I do!) but I couldn't remember the street name I needed to turn down so I almost burst into tears. I got home and thought I saw DH's car in the lot but it wasn't. He left the lights on AND a candle burning, as if I wasn't already stressed out enough.

. AND now I have to pack for our trip tomorrow. Aghhhhhh.

irisheyez7 · November 2013

Holy Beejuzus was today a busy day! 9 hours of running errands! Physicals went well, no ill effects from the flu shot, meeting with lawyer went great, started our target registry, and our A/s (though long and baby was BEYOND uncooperative) went great so all in all it was a GREAT DAY! I am unwinding with a small glass of red wine and DAMMIT I earned it today

pineconey · November 2013

Packing for a weekend away:
Pre-preg= cute clothes, sexy nightie, etc.
Preg= all maternity clothes (just figure out outfits on the fly), every pair of clean underwear (because I know I'll pee my pants more than once).

Eff.

Kicks in the vag (technically the cervical opening) feel just awesome. :-q Just wait.

MrsL13 · November 2013

I've decided to say fuck it. DH's family will just have to see me naked on thanksgiving.

This was me this morning. And every time I'd finish one page and click to go to the next page, a new page would be tacked on to the end of the thread again. (So like, I'm on page 44 and the last page says 50...by the time I click to go to 45, all of a sudden the last page is 51.)

I generally think I look cuter pregnant and in maternity clothes. WTF, self?

pineconey · November 2013

@bluebird2318 I probably would too if I wasn't so chubby to begin with...

jennypenny1014 · November 2013

Simultaneously the best and worst thing about eating Sour Patch Kids: getting to eat the shake at the bottom of the bag. Awesome because of all the super sour sugary goodness just melting on your tongue, and awful because after you're done (and you've already for sure eaten most if not all of the bag first before you got to this point) your tongue feels like you've been licking battery acid.

The sides of my tongue are still raw, and it hurts to eat or drink anything. But they were delicious.

I bet you're cute either way! I think my thing is more that when I am pregnant I don't judge myself as much. I don't think I'd call myself chubby pre-preg, but I am definitely average rather than petite and adorable or toned and sexy. When I am pregnant it is easier for me to let go of the baggage and feel beautiful. I wish I had that mentality when I wasn't baking a little human!

This! Totally! 100%

I have a headache in that back of my head. Rehearsal is going to suck today! :-) that smiley is me trying to smile through it! Also, waking up at 4 am when you don't have to, annoying. One positive, I got to witness a rare single lightening and thunder in Iceland. I miss thunderstorms!

So glad tomorrow's the last day of work before thanksgiving break.....but soooooo much to do!!!!

I'm so jealous. LOL. Then again, y'all don't get a holiday for the first day of summer :-) (Which falls in April and it ALWAYS snows on the first day of summer.) Still, I was watching food network and looking at all the turkey and thanksgiving-ness was making me a little homesick! Good luck on getting everything finished!

BiggerinRealLife · November 2013

Feeling really emotional right now, for no good reason. And it's late, and I can't sleep, and I'm exhausted, and I'm dreading work tomorrow, and I can't get comfortable in my bed, and I am so grateful my sister is doing Thanksgiving this year because even the thought of making green beans and sprouts feel overwhelming right now. I need some rest this weekend.

katieharpiceland · November 2013

@BiggerinRealLife I am betting that besides the hormones, sleep deprivation is making you emotional. I had insomnia problems (before pg) and I would turn in to a crying wreck. So, I'm sending you positive sleeping vibes!!! I hope you fall asleep soon!!

Small side advice: Brian Eno Music for Airports ALWAYS helps me fall asleep :-)

BiggerinRealLife · November 2013

@katieharpiceland Thanks hon. I've had insomnia on and off all my life, and I hate its stupid face big time. This isn't really insomnia, though, which I get when I just can't settle my mind enough to sleep. It's more the discomfort keeping me from falling asleep or getting good rest once I'm asleep. Doesn't help that I'm used to changing positions throughout the night but falling asleep on my back, and this week lying on my back just got uncomfortable.

And your music rec made me smile. I've never been one to fall asleep with sound (I prefer silence while DH needs white noise) but the last few times I've gotten a massage I'll be darned if that generic soothing music's didn't almost put me to sleep! I'll try it.

I hope you're doing well!

tamaraaaa · November 2013

This pregnancy insomnia is unreal. I'm wide awake at 3:30am everyday it seems. Guess how much I get done at 3:30am? NOTHING.

I have currently found one, yes one, pair of maternity jeans that fit and look ok. Can I wear them everyday for the next year or so? They seem like they'll be especially useful tomorrow when I stuff my face with tons of food and need lots of room.

katieharpiceland · November 2013

I'm with you in the waking up at 3:30 club :-q

kseccomb17 · November 2013

Still awake too! What's sleep?

I feel you. I felt this pain when I went home to FL to visit and didn't even pack of swim suit. *tear*

J&NL · November 2013

I went to bed at 7:45 last night. It made up for all the missed sleep I've been getting since I've been waking up at 5 all week and I was a total grump yesterday. I can already tell I feel better today.

snmetz7 · November 2013

So evidently my baby is the size of a pomegranate today... But I've never seen an 11in one... I think they messed up on that one.

I'm sure it's the lack of sleep/being exhausted that's making you so emotional. Always happens to me even not pregnant. Hope everything looks better when you wake up this morning.

Mamamonzo · November 2013

DH said he would take me to ups to ship my secret Santa stuff! I haven't been out of the house since last Thursday. I am so excited it's not even funny!!

katieharpiceland · November 2013

Sometimes, I read something in icelandic about politics, etc, and i really wish I didn't understand the words!!! So, I'm going to pretend like I didn't read what i just did and go on being oblivious. I'm not allowed to vote anyway :-D

Mamamonzo · November 2013

Sorry, I have nothing to do...... Find the kitty

P.s. She really thinks she is hiding. That's where she goes when she is in trouble or hiding from her sisters

Mamamonzo · November 2013

When people create threads for name opinions, is it because they aren't sharing the name with the family, or they want a reaction? I don't like the "this name or that name polls"...are you really going to let a bunch of strangers weigh in on naming your child. I love you ladies to death (some of you more than DH) but I could give two shits if you like the name we picked for our baby boy, we love it and that's ALL that matters!

I know this may fit better in UO but I'll be busy tomorrow and I'm feeling extra stabby today.

The last part of this made me LOL.

And i totally agree, however, I think most of it is just for fun. I hope no one would change their minds over an internet poll :-D

I'm home from work and my legs are up. My KNEES are swelling and they hurt like crazy when they do. I'm hoping a legs elevated nap time will help me!
