I fucking hate the NetiPot!!!!!! (

I hated it too! I felt no better, maybe worse? And was cursing my husband who uses it all the time and suggested it.

My SIL had her baby tonight! 6 lb 12 oz and healthy.

Also, went to the drs today thinking I had a UTI because of the pink pee Saturday night and there's literally nothing wrong with me. My body just hates me. However, I did get an ultrasound to check my kidneys, amniotic fluid, and cervix which means I got to see little one! She was literally yawning (more likely just opening and closing her mouth for long periods)and apparently looking like she was trying to lick something. Def my offspring. She's almost a whole 2 lbs and has a big ole belly! It made me so excited to see!

That's awesome! Glad nothing is wrong. She was probably drinking amniotic fluid! Our little one was doing the same thing at our last appt! So flipping cute!

@mrscrcalli Lock yourself in the bathroom and eat it all!

The condensation on the INSIDE of my windows is frozen. Guess there's a first time for everything. We need to move out. I also have a space heater in the bathroom right now

@LoriMc12 I'm late to the PJ party but I love the Victorias Secret flannel (oxymoron?) and cotton PJs. They come in 3-4 lengths, so you can get what you need. I really love the cotton Mayfair PJs--they are lightweight, and still button up the front. And even the tops are still fitting me at this stage if PG (and some if my maternity shirts are already too short!). They usually have a good sale after the holidays. Check them out!

@honeyzoo Thanks so much! I just ordered a pair of cotton Mayfair PJs. They were on sale for $30 plus free shipping.

OMG today was awesome! I have been in pajamas the entire day under a fuzzy, king-size blanket that I took with me from room to room. LO has been happily kicking up a storm, and my office didn't fall apart without me. I feel sooooo relaxed, and even though the cold is going to suck tomorrow, DH filled up my gas tank out of his own spending money. What a sweetie!

Countdown to A/S #2 is on. Thursday seems ridiculously far away, but I figure I'll just hunker down at work to pass the time.

We spilt it and I'm sitting on the floor moaning how hungry LO and I are...

BiggerinRealLife · January 2014

48 more work days to go until maternity leave!!!

The countdown is beginning...

I started reading it when it was first posted then put my phone down. When I came back it had gotten long quick! I managed to read through the whole thing. You're not missing much.

sarlimes34 · January 2014

AW: My husband makes perfect hard boiled eggs. Which means egg salad sandwiches for dinner. Sooo good. I apparently love eggs while pregnant.

Mmmmmmme tooo!!!

Deviled eggs mmmm

pineconey · January 2014

We had our dear friends over for dinner tonight and found out she's pregnant with #3!!!

I'm SO happy for them! They graciously invited us to stay with them all summer for free and were by our side during our loss and finding out we were pregnant again. She's due in July!

irisheyez7 · January 2014

@poru My husband DESPISES eggs. The smell, the look, the texture. Everything. If I cook them at home he can still smell them hours later. However, I love them! He will be gone all day Wed so now I want to make egg salad! Yum!
@Aviola329: Doesn't start for another hour here, but my DVR is set! Haven't seen this movie in years!

Krispix78 · January 2014

Feeling extremely emotional tonight. I don't know if it was the dramatic day at work or my hormones or my DH's withdrawn mood. I just feel like busting into tears and I don't even know why exactly. Hate this feeling!

Bluebird2318 · January 2014

Between lunch and dinner I ate almost all of a Digiorno pizza by myself. BAM! 1400 calories! Ugh. I guess split between two meals that's pretty normal, but man I feel like I'm ready to come apart at the seams!

It's just that a lot of people make a lot of assumptions before they have a baby. And then shit changes REAL quick.

I was the best parent ever before I had kids!

Mamamonzo · January 2014

Just chased our cat around the house because her poor little tush was red and I had to put ointment on it. She looked at me like " how dare you touch me there!" I'm going to be such a good mom right!?!?

fireflygirl12 · January 2014

(((((hugs))))) @pineconey.

pineconey · January 2014

If we weren't already knocked up....

RocksInTheWater · January 2014

So the crazy dreams are back. First night I was being chased by some guy that wanted to kill me and I kept escaping, running through random backyards to try to lose him. Last night a plane exploded in the sky above me and I was running from falling airplane debris. So, apparently running from things is my theme...what's my deep-seeded issue here?

BiggerinRealLife · January 2014

Rolling my eyes at the dog jumping thread.

fireflygirl12 · January 2014

Out of fear that my baby was literally going to come out as a sour patch kid or jelly belly, I gave up candy until after he's born. I just ate 2 (or 6) handfuls of mini marshmallows. Doesn't count, right? I refuse to fail my resolution on Day 6.

JessieAlbin · January 2014

What a long stupid day. 11 hours in a restaurant is too damn long. Then went straight to another restaurant to eat since DH and I have been too lazy to cook/shop. Proceeded to pass out after a shower. Now I'm up with heartburn dying of thirst and popping Tums like they're goin out of style. It's a good thing DH is warm and snuggly, or I might have a melt down.

Catching up: hugs to all the ladies havin a rough day, the labor pj conversation makes me actually wanna buy clothes, it's stupid cold outside, and I would kill to have tomorrow off. Tums, anyone?

Your willpower is greater than mine. I'm not a big sweets person on the reg, but when I need candy, I NEED CANDY.

MrsL13 · January 2014

A lady from BRU called me today about my registry. Congrats and all that blah blah. She also told me I get a gift bag for registering there. Anyone wanna tell me what's in it?

fireflygirl12 · January 2014

DH and I like the name Simon with nn Si for DS2 (DS1 is Wesley). 2 people immediately associated it with Duck Dynasty (boo). Would you automatically think of that? I don't watch the show, but know that it's extremely popular right now and imagine it will remain popular for awhile. It's not the only name we both like, but definitely one of the front runners.

This. I'm eating so many more sweets pregnant than I ever did pre-baby.

Candy (sweet and sour stuff, not chocolate) is definitely my weakness. I can go forever without other sweets (cookies, cake, pie, donuts, etc), but 6 days has seemed like FOREVER. I'm hoping it will get easier as the time goes on. Well except that Valentine's Day and maybe Easter are in between

By the time I catch up reading all of the posts I missed, I can never remember what I wanted to respond to. Hugs to you ladies who are having rough days. I'm hungry, so I think it's time for a bowl of cereal!

What kind of cereal? I have been in love with cereal lately, but we're all out of milk.

tcwink · January 2014

I just had two bowls of Captain Crunch with berries. Best late night "snack" ever!! Eta:spelling is hard

RocksInTheWater · January 2014

I don't know why but my phone's Internet connection sucks in my bedroom which does not make me a happy person when I am unable to sleep due to the impossibly stupid decision to eat buffalo chicken dip tonight. Wonder how long I'll have to stay in an upright position...

I'm loving eggs too! Only thing I've been able to eat consistantly

snmetz7 · January 2014

I passed out right when I got home at 8... so naturally I'm wide awake now. ugh.

Stace0616 · January 2014

Lately, I've been able to get some quality sleep by sleeping half on my side and half on my stomach. It seems tonight the baby will NOT be having any of this. Woke up feeling like I've been punched in the gut and now am wide awake.
