    My sweet tooth has been insane throughout this entire pregnancy. Ahhh. I'm so tempted to go to the grocery store just to get ice cream and a cup cake.

    Maybe if I can find a good family gift. The problem is that 3 are in one family and 5 in the other. And they all will get us and DSS gifts :/ I was thinking of trying to keep a $5 limit for each kid.... That's $40, hopefully not too much of a dent considering I'll get $20 in Ross store credit from this return.
    Do you have a Five Below near you? It's almost like a dollar store but slightly nicer stuff since it goes up to $5. I got DD a couple Barbies, a puzzle, and other small toys there last year.
    Never heard of it but t sounds great. I'm leaning towards a cheap Xmas movie popcorn and a board game for the two families.
    I think this is a good idea. My uncle used to get us a movie and one of those Christmas tubs of popcorn with the three flavors. We always loved it and looked forward to his gift.

    Apparently my only craving thus far is to eat like a kid again :P
    Fruity pebbles!  Yummy! I've been eating them almost every night as a bedtime snack.  Before now, I haven't had them in probably 15 years or more.

    I was craving a tuna sandwich today while at work. So, I naturally came home and made one for dinner. And I'll be damned because it really didn't do it for me! Now I'm left wanting something else...but what??? Ugh.

    I think my pregnancy brain is rubbing off on DH. He put the ice cream away in the fridge last night and now we have ice cream soup. 

    Also, I had a rough day at work and I am consoling myself with chocolate cream pie and a black cherry fizz wine cooler. It is delicious.

    How do you break up with a friend that you just don't want to be friends with?  She is too high maintenance and needy, and let's be honest, ain't no body got time for that come April.
    I am currently breaking up with my "BFF".   It can be really hard.  And like a drug I sometimes go back when I am feeling lonely.  But she was a needy time suck that asked for lot, gave very little, and then complained that she was the one putting in all the energy.  I was having trouble distancing her.  But then she asked me "when" she was allowed to throw my shower (not if, and for a second baby no less), and I told her that another friend had already asked if she could throw me a sprinkle.  She has barely talked to me since then. 
    Did you just slowly start hanging out with her less and less?

    I am bad at breaking up with friends. I make a decision and then start freezing them out. We are currently going through this with two friends who got divorced last spring--the wife has turned into this total party girl who only goes to gay clubs and the husband is dating a girl that he is ready to propose to. The wife has been totally flippant and insensitive about my pregnancy and is apparently counting down the days until I am free of this baby and can go drinking again. The husband just wants to grab a beer with DH and bring his girlfriend over for game nights where she gushes over how cute my belly is.

    One guess as to which friend we WON'T be keeping ;)

    I would ding-dong-ditch her, too!  She sounds frustrating.  So, are you going to talk to her or just slowly stop hanging out/returning her calls?

    Yeah probably just stop returning calls. I used to live a very fabulous life as queen of the gays until I met DH. This was right about the time she came into my social circle and began ignoring her husband, so over the past three years we've almost swapped lives. Except I am kind of happy to be out of the main circle--I was drunk for literally 3 years and made a lot of bad choices.

    So she'll probably forget me in the whirlwind of her life, but we will stop inviting her to stuff. Every party we have we have to make a choice of which one to invite and it SUCKS. Our wedding was so bad that he came to the bar night the night before so she could come to the wedding. And the whole time? I wished he was the one who there instead of her.

    I imagine she will catch on to this eventually and blame it on me getting old and boring? But everyone has to grow up someday and I'm 28. My clock has been ticking louder and louder every year for a baby. Plus the other day when I actually opened up about pregnancy being lonely, she blew it off and cut me off mid-sentence saying she'd be "right back". That was three days ago and I'm STILL waiting for her to come back to our chat.

    A 2011 Ford Fusion! My mom used to have a 2010 and I loved it! I knew we were looking for a new car, and I told him how much I love Fusions, and poof, there's one in my driveway! I hate bragging, but this is the second time he's surprised me with a car!

    @kiahsimpson I have an 06 fusion! I've always driven Toyotas or acuras so I thought the ford was a big down grade (bought it when I was laid off years ago) but I've been very happy with it.

    Between hubby and I, we've tried so many different cars. Audi, Oldsmobile, Chevy, Pontiac, Honda, Nissan, Izuzu and Fords. The only bad ford I've had was my Focus. I got it off craigslist and I realize now it was a horrible deal. The guy was shady and was able to cover up and lie about a lot of the problems I had. So I don't blame it on the ford brand, but the previous owner. My mom drives a ford explorer, my brother has a mustang, and my mom has also had a fusion and Taurus. I guess I'm just a ford girl!!

    I did the same thing over the summer. My friend was just too selfish and conceited for me to even like being around her anymore. Idk why it took me so long to finally realize it. I just stopped coming to see her when I would go home to visit and I think she took the hint so she deleted me off FB. Then when I asked her why she did, her response was "I want my FB to only be accessible from my family or friends." 

    Lol! Um.. okay. I'm pretty sure I we graduated HS a long time ago. We haven't talked since.

    I guess there is an upside to being a highly emotional pregnant lady. I just had to deal with my bank over 5 insufficient funds fees (this month hates us and slammed us and our paydays are skewed so things are coming out when they shouldn't be). I started crying and told the lady that we were getting paid at the end of the week and we're even returning Xmas presents to try to get out of the negative. She felt so bad she reversed all 5 fees for me instead of the normal authorized 3. Still bummed we have to return the Xmas presents but that will get us into the positive before payday so that paycheck can go towards bills and we hopefully won't end up in the hole again. I hate money and I feel like such a grinch this year because we can't afford anything
    Ugh I feel you on this and I really wish I didn't. Big Hugs. Money sucks, though I know I would not say that if I had more of it!
    We have 10 nieces and nephews to buy for! I got some excellent deals on Amazon where we were able to average less than $15 per kid and still got them some pretty good presents! Best of luck!

    My old boss is such a cunt.  I can't fucking stand her, aughhhhh  I felt like a burden from the second she found out I was pregnant, and now with this mess of her letting me go she's just being a mega bitch.  I don't generally say that I hate people, but I seriously Hate her So. Much. way to fuck up my night bitch.

    Hey ladies, I thought I would ask here instead of making a separate thread...

    Are any of you STM/TTM/etc. that took unisom throughout your other pregnancies? I still have to take it because I get nauseated at night. I know it's considered safe etc etc but feel a little guilty for taking it this long and was just looking for some reassurance of healthy babies from prolonged unisom-taking mamas!

    Breakfast for dinner sounded soooo good and tasted soooo good. But now there's heartburn, and I hate myself for that choice. Dessert=tums smoothies! :-/
