  • I AM STARVING. For whatever reason (and I'm not complaining), I have had little interest in food this whole pregnancy, but the last 3 days I have been INSATIABLE. There is no amount of food that is enough to fill me.....if this goes on for 6 more weeks I'm not sure I'll fit in the birthing suite.

  • Site visit got done early, and since I'm not the one driving the three hours back to the office, I've already caught up! Love all the gifs - my coworkers probably think I'm crazy now for snort laughing in the car while reading...

  • @poru at least it went over well!

    We told my mil and she said your joking right? And then just oh. His entire family except his brother always calls him baby 2.0 instead of his name. They even wrote that on his presents instead of his name. It's not changing!! Ugh sorry that's my in law rant of the day.
  • When it comes to names, everyone has an opinion that they simply cannot keep to themselves. So annoying! My mom hasn't exactly said she doesn't like our front runners, but sort of implied it by giving another name suggestion and saying "and it's old" which I took to mean that she thinks the current names we like are "old". Oh well.

    Also, I just briefly stalked F14 HDBD and there are so many cute squishy outside babies. We are getting close!

    Think baby girl is pissed she has the hiccups. Every four to five hiccups I get a kick to the ribs! Sorry but the rice krispy treat was to good to pass up Lil Lady!

    What kind of decongestant can I take???

    My doctor told me Mucinex is ok, bit it's the shitty ONLY Mucinex kind, not the good stuff with pain relief in it. You can also try cough drops and a nasal spray or neti pot. Colds during pregnancy suuuuuck. I can't wait to be done haha!
  • My stomach HURTS today... I haven't had BH, so I though maybe it was that but everything is squishy, not hard at all.  It even hurts to touch...  Like all my muscles are horribly bruised and painful.  I want to cry, and DH leaves tomorrow morning for three weeks so he's zero help if it's anything.  Cue meltdown...

    DH can act like such a child sometimes, I can't even handle it. Last night he was making a smoothie and decided he put too much spinach so he threw some of it down for the dogs to eat it. Well, the fact that they aren't rabbits, of course, they didn't eat it. Fast forward to right before bed.. I asked him "why is there spinach everywhere?!" And instead of owning up to it he says "well, June was eating it,, " Um.. Ok? She didn't eat it so therefore it's your mess! Go fucking clean it!! Ugh! *stab stab stab* /vent
    omg! major facepalm to your DH! they do weird stuff like that, don't they? makes me crazy!

    It seriously reminded me of a response a teenager would give to their parents just so it didn't seem like it was their fault or to get out of it even though everyone knows it's bullshit. He drives me nuts sometimes.

  • Wait a second. The joke of a 'leave' Americans get for 12 weeks is UNPAID? Just reading through the mat leave thread...I thought you at least got paid...

    WTF AMERICA. Is there really not one politician who has ever addressed this? How is this not a MAJOR campaign strategy? They'd have all the women's votes in a heartbeat!

    Honestly, it depends on where you work. Most major corporations use short term disability insurance coverage for maternity leave. When I worked at Comcast, 1-3 yrs of employment got you 6 weeks (up to 26 weeks if medically necessary) @ 60% of your salary, 3-4 years earned you 6 weeks @ 75% pay then up to 20 more weeks @ 60%, and 5+ years of faithful service got you 6 weeks @ 100% pay, 6 more @ 75%, and up to 14 more @ 60%. It was amazing, cause I was there almost 6 years when I had DS.

    Then I heard that Canada gives a year with full pay. Now I'm just bitter.
    Actually, I'm in canada and don't get full pay... Employment insurance is what pays me, and I get 55% of my usual salary. I just have the ability to stay off for a full year, and be able to return to my position after that. We do, however, get something magical called "baby bonus" ;) which is based on income, but it's free money for having a kid basically.

    I'm going to gripe for a minute.



    I really hate the car buying process. We have been waiting since monday to find out about financing....why are we still waiting? because the loan office is dragging their feet on processing the loan for approval. I need to know (like now) if we are getting approved because if not I need to move on the the next thing. We don't really have the luxury of waiting around for forever...we need a van asap! 
    That's crazy! When I found the car I wanted, I told them I needed to get things wrapped up fast so I could get back to work and they had me approved, signed, and out the door in less than two hours! I'd never have waited DAYS.
    yeah the last time we bought a car we had it the next day and that was only because the dealership needed to finish certifying it since it just went on the lot and was still going through the process. This is a small local lot I guess the loan company they use is slow.

  • Ugh. My baby shower is on Saturday and my mom and sister were planning on driving five hours to attend and spend the weekend with me. Today, my niece and nephew for diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease.

    Now I'm worried that even if she does still come that it is something that might make me sick :(
  • Jeez. Sometimes reading through these threads makes me panic about things I never considered worrying about. I think I'm going to step away for a little while. Have a wonderful day, ladies!

    And @Poru, I love Zosia/Zoe. I don't think Zoe is all that popular and Zosia is a bit more mainstream now that Zosia Mamet's in the picture!

    HFM is pretty hard to spread to adults (except for the weird california mutation strain that went around last year, and even then it was barely noticeable in adults).  Since you are pregnant, you may be more susceptible to it.   Most adults who get it though don't even notice symptoms.

    Our daycare had a huge breakout last year (almost 50% of the kids since you are contagious before you even know you are sick) and only a couple parents had symptoms, and even then it was a tiny rash as opposed to the full blown sickness that kids go through.


    This. Our daycare was hit too. Some of the kids got it really bad. Some just mild. I caught it and just had the bottoms of my feet hurt/sting/burn.
  • @poru Zosia is an awesome name, and I wouldn't care one bit if her NN was supposedly popular. FWIW, I love Damian too.

    Yes, we've been loving on Zosia as a name since we started watching Girls a few months ago.

    Obsessed with that show
