Felt like kind of a loser riding one of the scooter carts at Walmart earlier, but there was no way I was up to walking around the store while we shopped. Went to a few other places with no such carts, and the way I feel right now let me know that it was worth riding. My next dose of Tylenol can't get here fast enough.
However, greatly kind MIL and SIL cleaned and organized our apartment, and almost everything we've been able to bring over so far is put away. Plus, MIL washed all the bedding and things for LO's crib and put it all on for me, so now the crib's ready for a baby! A bit of one of those "shit's getting real" moments, lol. Andplusalso, SIL bought us a bunch of stuff we needed for the apartment that's packed away God knows where in MIL's garage, like a dish rack and bathroom towels.

I am soooooooo beyond annoyed right now. DD is driving me nuts. DH is coming home late. I just want to be left the eff alone but I know that won't happen once he gets home. I'm thinking I may sneak into the bathtub for a while.
I just got told I cannot use fmla for dr's appointments... Wtf?!
Say what?!? Why not?
@mamamonzo how obnoxious! my DH is kind of the opposite and drives me crazy. I'll say I need to fix my hair (wet, falling out, sticking up, whatever) and he's always like why? It looks fine. We are just going to dinner.
I don't know what to do about ny sister. She just walked into my house (again) because I forgot to relock it after I got the mail. She asked what we were doing for dinner tonight and I told her. She started crying (she's 18) because she doesn't like what we're having. I told her she should be more appreciative because she's not paying for it, plus I didn't offer her to eat anyway. So she got mad and slammed my front door. Uhhh?

Let her slam the door, go, and be upset. jeez. Time to grow up sis!

Maybe she won't come back! That would be a nice change right?
Let her get mad and get over it. Sometimes tough love works the best in these situations
DH "are you doing something with your hair, or are you just leaving it like that?"
Well I WAS planning on leaving it in the messy knot on my head since we're just going to dinner, apparently I need to do something with it. :-L
Comments like that make me wanna TP
And of course when we do put time into our hair they complain that we're taking too long.
This. They want us to look good but only take 10 minutes to do so.

HE PASSED!!! DH passed his test!!!!!! He got the minimum required score, but he passed!!! I told him if he did that he could choose our dinner spot. Steakhouse for dinner and massages tomorrow.

April 14 August Siggy Challenge- "This time last year.."
My neighbors crack me up - I love them since they make me feel like I'm back in college. The post office delivered a package to me in their mailbox. This is the second time the post office has done it in the past two weeks. The first time, my neighbor just brought it over. This time? He's holding it hostage for some of my cupcakes. )
@poru I'd be livid! I'm so sorry. Is there some other sort of service they can offer you in the meantime?
I asked for a manager to call me -- and then she accused me of being inflexible cause she found me one prenatal appointment for Sunday 40 minutes away at a different location. And I couldn't do that one since DH is working Sunday. They were not helpful at all and I am cancelling my membership.
What the fuck?!?!!! The fact that they're making it your fault annoys me to no end! Accommodate your fucking clients point blank and the period. *hops off hospitality soap box*
I told DH tonight that is prefer he only have a couple drinks (or none) at the parties we go to from here on out for the rest of the pregnancy. I don't think he was pleased, but when I asked he said "well it's not like I can say no".
Try 9 months of sobriety. I don't think a third of that is too much to ask to give your pregnant wife the peace of mind that you'd be able to drive her to the hospital whenever she happened to go into labor.
She came back and asked me to help her with a job app and I did. Then as soon as she was done, I told her I need time with my family and I'll talk to her on Monday. I really did rip her a new one, and told her about everything she's done that's caused me stress. So when she was leaving she apologized and said thanks. I locked all the doors after I reminded her that I still won't be hearing from her all weekend long. It's like I'm on vacation.
I'm done with her bullshit and it feels so good! Thanks for helping me out! You guys are truly the best.
@medic99 I love Pho, so much that I've learned to make a fo-pho! At some Asian markets they sell Pho seasoning packets that you can add to broth then all you need is noodles, protien and some veg.
That is brilliant!! I am trying to read through this thread to catch up and all I can think about is Pho.....I NEED more Pho!! My husband is not a huge fan. But... he is working tonight so I am thinking I need to pack up my girls and go get some!
I am totally digging being pregnant right now. I work on a dairy farm, and I might say the farmers are slightly sexist... None of their sisters work on the farm and you will never see a woman drive a tractor (They were amazed when I knew how to drive a bobcat). But I'm totally for it, the one son I was milking with today told me how I shouldn't be carrying milk buckets and I just said "well yeah now that I'm pregnant I don't" and his response "no, there are plenty of us around here that none of the girl milkers should have to bring buckets up. We were raised better than that." I take pride in being able to carry two full buckets of milk, but damn I love a little chivalry. Whenever anything falls on the ground, they will pick it up for me, opening and closing gates? No problem, they've got it. At first I felt like they thought I was helpless, but now I just feel like they're spoiling me! And just wait til this little girl come out, she's gonna have a ball running around the farm with all these men doting on her!
Why do my boobs look so good? Then I peed on a stick...
Hey ladies...if you were leaking fluid, would it last throughout the day? I leaked something out mid-sex this morning but have just had normal discharge throughout the day. But now I'm thinking about it and feel worried.
Took a bath, painted the crib and part of the twin bed. I feel much better. I got DDs paint for her room (teal) so I get to start that tomorrow. I'm SO ecxited to see it finished.
@Lindsay808 I think if you were leaking amniotic fliud, then yes you would probably still be feeling it. As embarrassing as it may sound, you might have leaked urine during sex (happened to me before). If discharge has been normal all day I wouldn't be worried.
~Missed MC at 8 weeks. D&C at 12 weeks on 4/17/13~
@poru I don't get how they can just cancel on you. Do they just have one prenatal masseuse and she's sick or something? And you'd think if they can bump you they could bump someone else. These massages are freaking necessary, and can affect work etc. unacceptable. If it's a massage envy they're all franchised, so I would go on yelp and write a review detailing your experience. That usually gets franchise owners attention.

Baby Girl Born: April 2014 If you ask me what I came to do in this world, I, an artist, I will answer you:
It just baffles me how many people on Facebook think this is ok! Or are taking the "just don't expect gifts then" route. I'm trying to prevent a train wreck here before she ends up asking the same damn question on The Knot or WeddingBee...
Are comments public on this shop?? Cause I would LOVE to say something snarky. PLEASE let me.
DH and I attempted to have sex today for the first time in over a month. It was more awkward and weird than our first time. It was horrible. I think I am over pregnant sex. We never had this much difficulty with any of my other pregnancies. I am bummed.
@jennypenny1014 I think so? Look up "Bride to Be Consignment" in Bloomington, Minnesota on Facebook. The business, not the person (they have two FB pages for some reason).
FTM freak-out?
After every appointment I always get paperwork back just to give an overview of the appointment, reminder for the next one, etc. It also lists my info at the top along with some basics about my pregnancy.
In the past it always said "Today You Were Treated For" and underneath "Supervision of other normal pregnancy" Today it said "Unspecified high-risk pregnancy" and underneath that "Anemia, antepartum"
What the heck?? Why wouldn't they tell me I'm now considered high risk and for what? It says unspecified, so it makes me think that it's not the anemia. But if it is, why wouldn't they tell me that when I was diagnosed like three weeks ago?? Or is it not that big of a deal?
I called to ask about it, but I've been waiting for 1.5 hours for a nurse to call me back. I've been worrying ever since.
I wouldn't freak - I'm sure it's just a category code or something...at least I would hope that your OB would have the decency to let you know that you've been moved to a high risk category! Though I don't think that anemia would really make you high risk unless it was out of control...
I want to go have sex. It's been like 3 weeks. But I also don't want to have sex.
It's a conundrum.
I considered putting out tonight, but this gas is making me scared I'll let out a monster fart at some point during sexy time. That might just be a little too much for me to handle, so I'll watch Olympics instead..

I did lock the door! It's super cold out though. I guarantee she won't be gone long.
