Pregnant Musings

I thought it could be fun to have a thread to just throw out some pregnancy related or baby related musings (as opposed to the hundreds of name polls and registry item threads, which have their own forums btw).

I'll start:

I'm starting to believe that pregnancy constipation is practice for labor.

  • I think this kid is going to walk all over DH and I. I just get the feeling that she/he/it isn't going to be one of those easy going laid back babies. I'm building a screamer.

    I have no idea why I think that- other than that this pregnancy has been difficult. But just like I think it's a girl- just can't shake the feeling we're going to have our hands full with this one.

  • I have kind of wondered the same thing. Sometimes it takes a sustained yet controlled effort (and tons of concentration) to get the poop out. Since I've never pushed out a baby I wasn't sure if I was crazy or not.

  • I think my cats have caught on to my need to be trained to wake up at odd hours and not get angry because lately they seem to be very loud and vocal at midnight then 3 then 6... Well you get the idea
  • Mmmm Hawaiian punch sounds amazing right now.

    Right? That was my reaction, too.

  • I'm feeling guilty about how badly I want a boy. I know I'll be happy as long as my baby is happy and healthy, but I really really want a boy.
    Phew! It felt good to say that! I haven't told anyone that cuz I was scared of karma. There's no such thing as cyber karma, right?

    Me too I want a boy SO bad!! I already have 2 girls and would love to have a boy but would also be happy with a little sister for my girls

    I believe that too. I actually found it WAY easier to push out a 7 lb baby than to poop the last half of pregnancy lol. No joke.

    Wha? Did you have an easy labor or a really good epidural? Holy hell. Pushing out my DD for 3 hours was nowhere near even like the most epic of poops!

  • I just love that I was so tired today that I fell asleep in the car on a ten minute drive but now I can't fall asleep for crap. Just wide awake while hubby snores in my ear. So not looking forward to Monday morning after a long weekend and poor sleep.

    I think it's ridiculous that before I got pregnant I thought I would eat so healthy...and here I am eating Fritos and drinking Hawaiian Punch.
    YES. I can't believe the crap I'm eating, and I just don't care. I used to love vegetables and whole grains and all that. Now, I just want Cheez Its.
    I was a vegetarian and loved it... then pregnancy hit and all i wanted/could eat was McDonalds chicken nuggets! Not the nice selects, the nasty (possibly not even real meat) chicken nuggets! And Wendys bacon cheese burgers... literally that was all i could keep down for the first 12 weeks!

    (sorry Lurking from April! Im due at the tail end and am feeling a little lonely over there!)

    I've been a vegetarian for years, even through my first pregnancy, and all I want this pregnancy is MEAT!!! I was also on a chicken nugget kick for a while, but the frozen kind. Right now, I can't even imagine going back to being a vegetarian, and I never even really liked meat in the past!

  • I haven't slept good in the past 4 nights.  If I'm not peeing, then my dogs are making random sleep noises that wake me up....all the while my DH is soundly sleeping and not waking once.  I literally laid in bed and cried at one point last night because I was so tired and couldn't sleep at all.  I'm running on fumes today and am praying I can get through the day without having a total meltdown.  

    Just.want.sleep.
