I can't stand my BIL's wife. That's right, not even going to grace her with the title of SIL. She is straight up BSC. Hyper active, dumb as a box of rocks, and also seems high. I can't. And then she texts DH yesterday morning saying she thinks she needs brakes on her car. He checked them a few weeks ago. They were perfectly fine. FFS leave my GD DH alone you loon. Not to mention that it was bad before we moved back to his hometown, but now?! Oh good lord... If a single light bulb is out everyone is calling him up asking for advice. And this crazy lady apparently argued with BIL about her car not having license plate lights after getting a ticket for them being burnt out! Gah, and they have a kid.... The stupid, its reproducing.

@kat8805 why doesn't she ask her own husband for help?

I love my BIL, he's cool as shit. But he does the same thing sometimes, only not to the extent his wife does. Andplusalso, my husband has 2 degrees in the automotive field... and is handy as shit otherwise. Self thinking isn't exactly fostered in this area it seems.

So here's mine:

I can no longer easily get out of my bed in the morning. I have an amazingly comfy memory foam mattress but it takes at least 15 attempts before I am able to finally roll over or sit up. DH finds this hilarious, but he wont when I have him installing one of those little pull up handles for when I get farther along!

This is basically what my mornings look like:

and then by the time I actually manage to get myself out of bed, I'm so worn out that I just want to:

My bed is very tall, and I'm not. We have drawer units under the bed (it's part of the whole set) so we had to set the rails up a little higher. When we first got the set, we had a standard box spring and then our King mattress. The top was up to my elbow, LMAO! So we got a low-profile box spring, it helped but it's still up to my waist. So now that I'm KTFU, climbing into bed every night I'm all like

I'm going to need a stool or ladder pretty soon!

Me, too! And DH isn't old school or anything, he just thinks all forms of social media are stupid.

I'm in this club.

I guess my FFFC is more of a UO - I don't think tanning beds are dangerous in general if used infrequently - I used to go about twice a month in the "winter" (I live in FL, so I'm saying I went about 4 times a year). Going to the bed all the time? Yes, I think that is dangerous and unhealthy. A handful of vanity visits in the winter whilst using SPF? Eh, not a big deal to me. I haven't been at all during my pregnancy and I just hate looking so wan.

6 year Melanoma survivor here... I would say I disagree with this but that doesn't even cover it. That's all.

There is a post on the breastfeeding board I am judging hard. Long story short the mom used Babywise and is now blaming Kelly mom for giving bad advice. Sorry but there is a reason Babywise is so recommended against. It would be one thing if she just said she didn't know the book was a bad idea but she's refuses to hear that it's not good to put a newborn on a schedule.

Hehe - I saw this and I judged.

Once in a while, on a special occasion, I let myself have an extra gummy calcium thing. They're yummy.

I take gummy prenatal and it's a nightly struggle to stop at 2. So good.

I don't like the way most baby things look. High chairs, pack and plays, etc -
almost all of it looks big and bulky and I don't like the design. Same goes for baby and kids toys. Something about all the bulk and plastic makes me anxious.

I hate pastel colors so a lot of baby things bother me - I try to purchase black baby gear when possible, I just prefer more "adult" looking items.... I also HATE cartoon/character themes in nurseries. I'm sure I will totally have to eat crow when this kid gets old enough to ask for character shirts, etc.

I'm with @pistolpackingmomma on the space saver stuff, way more my style.

LoveIsAll25 · February 2014

My FFFC: I tell my DH all the drama that goes on here. He looks forward to UO Thursday and hearing about people throwing themselves a baby shower.

Side Note: He has been active in computer software/hardware forums and fitness forums for over 10 years. He says the public forums he is on will tell you to die in a fire if you ask a 'stupid' question and that people here are too nice.

So for people complaining that girls here are mean other forums are much worse.

I have 2.
1. The LO's kicks are no longer sweet and sentimental. They are painful and obnoxious. I'm pretty sure he's trying to come out via my stomach.
2. DD's father (my ex-bf) is a complete waste of space. DD doesn't like him and honestly don't care if they have a relationship. She goes there every other weekend and he pays almost no attention to her. For Christmas he got her princess shit. She doesn't like princesses. At all. She's also 8..he got her princess sophia things. She doesn't know who that is. I pretty much hate that "father's rights" movement...

I could've written my own version of #2 Monday. Seriously, not all "fathers" are worthy of the title, or deserving of the time given.

Mine too! He is on Facebook but never posts anything. He'll just log in once a week and creep. His friends know what's going on with him when I tag him in something I post. He does use Linked In, which he makes an exception for because it's "professional."
Mine is the same. I tried to mention tb and he looked at me like I was crazzzzy.

all of your H's must be related to my H, 'cause this is exactly my life!

It is 46° outside with a windchill of 39°. DS is napping so I opened the back door in hopes that the 61% humidity helps clear out my head.

MamaLlama14 · February 2014

MY FC: I have become extremely anxious about getting sick this winter (for me, DH and DS). I'm not normally like this, I swear. However, it's been such a shit-tastic winter here that, as soon as I hear a sneeze, sniffle, mild cough, a throat clear, or GOD FORBID read a FB post about the full-blown flu or a stomach bug... I immediately feel like this:

But for serious... like I obsess over it. I think it's because of the hyperemesis and how super sick I have been. I literally have not had one good solid feel-good day since 3 weeks pregnant. And then in early December, DS got a stomach bug. Let me tell you, the saddest thing I've ever seen is your little 2 year old throwing up uncontrollably and not being able to do anything for them. Total helplessness. I literally do not want to take him out to places like gym class or play places until, like, April. I ask my family if they're healthy before coming over. If somene sounds sick, I won't let DS give kisses goodbye. DH thinks I'm a total hypochondriac. I get it, maybe I am, but the anxiousness I feel about it is for realz.

serdaht · February 2014

I had a dream about giving birth to my daughter last night and Arnold Schwarzenegger was one of the doctor's in the room. He told me I was doing a great job and I woke up feeling incredibly proud of that...my FFFC is that I still feel that way and am kinda sad that he's not really my doctor

danabsd · February 2014

I am taking my 3-hour GTT test and I a pretty much convinced I am going to fail solely because the drink made me feel like shit and I don't remember it having this effect last time. I have already decided I am going to have a doughnut when I leave here. Possibly 2. It maybe my last doughnut for a while I should have 2 right?

awknyc · February 2014

Mine is also work related. DH and I have decided that I'm going to quit my job at the end of next month. I haven't told my boss yet, I'm going to give him the heads up probably next week. With that said, I've already mentally checked out like 2 weeks ago. I feel like I'm doing the bare bones of my job just to get me to the end of March. I'm getting sh*t done, but don't expect that I'm going to raise my hand on taking any leads on any projects or actually care for that matter.

I got super sick from the drink last time and still passed! Good luck! And enjoy your doughnuts

Soupy84 · February 2014

I dropped the dog off at the groomers for a bath and some pampering - I sent her for the 3 hour package. It was more of a "get the fuck away from me" thought process because she wont leave me alone... but instead I am passing it off as the action of a loving dog owner.

I totally stopped off at Tim Hortons on the way home and picked up a variety 6 pack of donuts. I have eaten one and promise there will be none left by the time DH gets home. What he doesnt know wont hurt him?

BTW - I hate ironing and refuse to have an ironing board in my home. I love my steamer.

lauralou3x3 · February 2014

I secretly (ok not secretly) love all of the trashy reality shows. I hate drama IRL but can't get enough of it in these shows. My DH thinks I have a problem...

My FFFC was that I took 2 doughnuts at work today. The answer should always be 2 doughnuts.

I just watched the latest Teen Mom (though it was off on the recording which made me sad) episode. DH saw it on the DVR and asked why I watch it. I love it though. It makes me feel a billion times better about myself!

BeesKnees181 · February 2014

Empireceo...I agree with you and may have done that once in my wilder days...

And while I am coming clean...I was a little worried about not feeling the girls move last night, so I ate dark chocolate as a breakfast "dessert" to get them moving. After I felt some kicks, I went back for a second helping.

Ditto! I have a few select ones that suck me in. Teen Mom is definitely one, Catfish, The Bachelor...and the most shameful are Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. My friend and I text each other alternate suggested hashtags throughout Honey Boo Boo and it's amazing.

eghulse · February 2014

We're staying with my ils tonight. My confession? Mostly it's because I don't want to deal with DS lately. And MIL will do just about everything.

Also, I left my house a total disaster area.

Okay all I wanna know is what is wrong with owning an ironing board? Ours is built in but still, what else would you iron on?

My DH also thinks it's weird that I've made friends with people off the internet. He calls them my creepy internet friends. I just tell him I think it's weird he's still friends with every single person he was friends with in High School.

whimsy515 · February 2014

While I've changed my diet and will do what ever it takes to keep baby healthy, I am NOT looking forward to my 4 hour gestational diabetes class. I just told my Mom about it and her response was, "4 hours??? Why is it so long for something you'll be dealing with for 3 months?" That makes me hate the class even more. They better feed us there!

Delicious delicious positive reinforcement! I had two chocolate muffins for breakfast before I called the doc to ask about my GTT results. Ad since they don't seem inclined to rush the results to me before the weekend, I fully intend to eat two more before I find out if I have to cut carbs.

I'm rationalizing that I want baby to be big since she's likely to come early. But really- I just like chocolate muffins.

And I still haven't gained a pound this week- seems like nothing I eat will overcome the baby's growth. Which is part brag (because hey- who wouldn't want to be down 23lbs at 27weeks and still have their doc be happy) and part complaint because I feel like I'm not eating enough to keep Elisabeth fat and happy.

What? Oh hell no. I better not get gd because I would be very unhappy going to some class that probably would just tell me stuff I already know or can read about on the Internet.

MunchkinMoon · February 2014

My FFFC- my hemmies are back. But instead of hurting this time, they're itchy as FUUUUUUUUUU. I honestly don't know which I prefer.

Anyway, I've been doing a pretty decent job IMO of not scratching. But at around 330 AM after icing, sitting in a warm bath, and putting cream on, I got desperate. I took 3 Tuck's pads (the witch hazel one) and rubbed it to scratch. It felt so amazing that I swear to God I orgasmed. As in, my eyes rolled to the back of my head and I was in complete and total ecstasy.

I haven't felt that way in months. Despite having sex with DH.

Awkward.

I've been a regular on another forum since 2006 or so, and have made some of my closest friends there. my DH is totally baffled by the whole thing. he's one of those people who tries to post to someone on facebook and ends up posting it as his status. it took a few of my friends visiting me and vice versa, then a small group of them attending our wedding for him to realize they were real and pretty cool! pretty sure he still thinks i'm a weirdo though haha.

awc1986 · February 2014

FFFC: so I just full on ugly cried because I'm so pissed off at DH. See page 1's ironing board throwing incident. I had to buy the tiles for our bathroom reno today but he forgot to move money around, so it came out of my own o/d, leaving me £40 and I had to buy gas because my fuel light is on. I asked him to send me £20 at lunch, which he said he'd do. He forgot that too. I managed to put a bit of gas in my car but now I have pretty much no money.
Then I get home from work and he's back on the playstation and last night's dishes are still in the sink. He's hardly said 2 words to me since I got in. I asked him what we were doing for dinner (hint - take me out or make me something to make up for being a douche). Well it became clear that I'm making dinner. I'm tired, have a cold, have been working all week and slept for 4 hours last night. Oh and I'm making a human.
So I did the dishes, walked upstairs and ugly cried on the bed. I've been up here 20 mins and I've not even had an "are you ok?".

I'm sure it's different by state (I'm in FL) but I was shocked when she told me how long it would be. I was under the impression that I would have a consultation with a dietician just to go over the facts. My Uncle who has type 2 diabetes had to take the same class, so I'm all WTF? about it!

Calling them hemmies make them sound cute, although I'm sure you feel different

momthatlifts · February 2014

I've gotten in to a really bad habit of sleeping on my back and I know it's not ideal. But I wake up and find that it's the only comfortable position. I keep telling myself I will only lay there for a minute before I turn over, but I fall asleep every time.

I have some friends that I chat with on a regular basis that I met when on TTGP. They are the coolest people ever and I would love to meet them IRL. Not to mention the lovely ladies of this BMB that I now have the privilege of knowing via FB. DH can suck an egg.

I would normally tend to agree, except I've learned there's nothing TMI when it comes to pregnancy.

... Except posting pictures of your mucus plug. That's just gross.

Meh, my doc is fine with back sleeping so long as I don't lose sensation in my extremities or feel sick. I'm on my back right now as a matter of fact- got the snoogle under my head and behind my knees and I feel awesome.

make yourself dinner, let him fend for himself.
