I cannot possibly be hungry after all I ate tonight, and yet I am. I need food now. I think it'll be a bowl of cereal and then to bed

I'm inhaling a bowl of Cheerios and bananas right now...debating between another bowl $:\$ "> and bed.

Im laying in bed with an ice pack in my crotch. DH reached over and said "I'm not even going to ask, feel better babe."

ooh and H said he thinks that the interview went really well. They told him they will need to wait for the background check to come in... there are some questionable things on there from like 8-10 years ago so lets hope they don't look that far back

Questionable things?? Like, felony convictions?? Sorry - I'm just being nosy. I hope everything is OK and they don't find anything that would cause him not to get the job!

Ok work is cramping my bumping today and keeping me from chiming in. However, a few pages back someone said "haters gonna hate" and now all I keep saying in my head is "potatoes gonna potate". I nothing else of value (that isn't work related) to contribute today. Hope you lovely ladies are doing well!

People who eat pizza with a knife and fork probably leave their clothes on while they have sex.
I do this pretty often. I eat french fries with a fork too. Not all the time but if I am home or in a restaurant I do. I pretty much eat everything with a fork because I have a weird thing about food on my hands.
But what we really want to know is: do you leave your clothes on during sex? ;;)
Haha!! I don't! Well maybe socks....sometimes. But my feet get cold! There was a study done once that said women who keep their socks on orgasm easier. I figure they can't hurt
"You know that when I'm down to my socks It's time for business That's why they call 'em Business Socks! Ooh!" Help! Help! Someone gif! I'm mobile!

Kiddo is making up for being so quiet all day by kicking and rolling up a storm while I'm up with cramps and BH. It's gonna be a long 6 weeks playing this new game you're into at 2am, little man...

Do any of you ladies have any experience with gallbladder attacks? I was asleep and woke up because I had the worst pain under my ribs that wrapped all the way around my back. It passed after about 10-15 minutes. If it had continued I would have went to the hospital. I think it was my gallbladder but I am not sure. It definitely wasn't contractions but it was some of the worst pain ever. I don't know if I need to let my doctor know in the morning or not.

Mine felt like I was being stabbed in the back and it went all the way through to the front. The pain was so bad I couldn't think straight, I could only think of the pain. I'd mention it to your doctor,mine said it's common during or right after pregnancy. I had to get mine taken out about 2 and half months after my DS was born.

Had a duh why didn't i think of that moment earlier when reading about breast pumps. Saw on another site to get a cheap sports bra (many have front closures) from tj maxx and just snip two small holes in it near the nips instead of buying the $30 hands free pumping bras.

I did exactly this with an old soft cup bra that I'd never wear... Just measured the size hole I'd need to get the flanges through, snipped a couple of slits with some scissors, and WHAMO! free hands free pumping bra!

Ugh, I have to write something. I hate it when you make a reply, post it, and then it stays in the box.

DS was shot out of a canon this morning. Geezus. Also, I'm an asshole but Elliot has 2-L's.

The legally approved spelling of Elliot over here has one L. Its on our name list, so, if we use it, it will have one L. Otherwise, no one will ever spell his name right. Ever.

Someone spelled my name Kaitye on an official form the other day. My name is always spelled wrong here. I don't want him to go through that. Of course, he won't be an annoyed pregnant woman that was annoyed I had to go back and have the official form redone because they misspelled my name.

You're in other country, that doesn't count.

It makes my brain hurt living here sometimes. Today, its making my brain hurt. ;-) (They totally charged me another 18$ to reprint the form with the correct spelling of my name on it. I'm still irrationally pissed off by this.)

Oh you know... I married an axe murderer. No big.

. Nah he was speeding and didn't have his liscense on him when we was pulled over and the dick cop instead of putting failure to id put evading arrest. It's kept him from getting jobs before....but that was several years ago. I hear most people only look 7 years back so fingers crossed

I can't complain about that because my DS middle name is spelled wrong to me. His middle name is Philip, I feel like it should have 2 L's in it, Phillip. However, it's my DH middle name so I had to spell it the way his mom did.

Ashleypixie · March 2014

Last night DH and I were talking about how many homes we have to see and maybe I should just go with our realtor during the week since I have more free time. He actually said, "I'd normally have a problem with you spending so much time alone with another man but you're pregnant." JUST. WOW. I have at least seven different reasons for being offended by this.

My belly is sitting on my legs and still squished under my boobs. I'm getting so big!

At least it wasn't Elyott or something, haha. I think DH and I have finally settled on a girls name. Maya! What's a good middle name for that? WHY IS THIS SO HARD

Maya is a cute name! I love the MN Josephine or Kathryn. They are both in my mix!

Pregnant stereotype of loving pickles has been found true. I tried them at the beginning of this pregnancy and I couldn't even chew it, had to spit it out before throwing up. Just ate one and I want the whole jar. Sweet not dill.

I go through a jar of spicy pickles weekly.

The hospital bag thread is overwhelming. I just wasn't planning on bringing as much stuff at all. Also, someone had a curling iron on their list. da fuq? Am I weird for thinking that's weird? I was going to throw my hair up and call it good.

A curling iron? Fuck me. No way! I'm growing my hair out in hopes I'll be able to pull it back by the time this LO is born.

It's like BAM it's March, time for our babies to come out? Did they not get the memo? APRIL!!!

I'm watching flipping out from last night, and Jeff's assistant jenny is pregnant and is talking about how she heard that she should and is roughing up her nipples for the baby. I'm just sitting here cringing. like, please stop. just stop. I will never understand this. Why shred up something sensitive, thus making it more sensitive to the touch. Why?

I thought the same thing!! She says something else later in the show, and I thought "who is your doctor!?!?"

I complained on FB about the stranger that touched my belly and insisted that I was having twins. I vented that women carry different and that was insulting. My moms friend wrote that I'm being judgemental and gaining too much weight is baaaad. I will not bitchy reply to her. I will not bitchy reply to her. Woossah

Can I?

Sorry I'm catching up.

sking72 · March 2014

In my birthing class the nurse told us about a woman who the doctor told was one centimeter dilated, so as soon as the woman left the office, she called an ambulance and went to the hospital because she thought she was in labor. From the doctor's office. Without asking her doctor what to do.

@jellysparkles How is your dog doing?

My pup has been sluggish most of this week too. He spent the weekend with our friends because we were out of town and I'm hoping he is just really exhausted from it still. I'm starting to get a bit concerned from his lack of annoying me since he is typically very active. But he is eating and drinking so I'm trying not worry to much and savor the peace.

ahahaha! oh. my. god. and yall were worried about mucous plug/am i in labor posts... y'all, its super serious because its a whole centimeter.

I couldn't resist responding to burst her bubble. I'm just in that kind of mood today.

I approve this message.

thomas930 · March 2014

@3crazykitties Hope all is ok.

olenkapdx · March 2014

I wanted to full on punch the teacher of our birthing class last night. She was clearly a drama major or a theater geek (many of my friends are theater nerds, so don't get all butt-hurt). We endured her show for about an hour, but when she did a little clappy dance with the forceps that she was demo'ing, SO and I gave each other the eye and slipped out the back door, went home and watched True Detective and ate choc peanut butter ice cream.

It was the right choice. It had been too long of a day for that nonsense.

Emily041285 · March 2014

Wait! She was the mucus plug girl from a little while ago! I knew that name sounded familiar!

Was trying to get out of the quote box, but, fuck it. Hey guys, someone has braxton hicks, also. Just so you know. We're having ALL the wins today.

Still sluggish, still drinking but not eating much. Starting to think she's constipated. Haven't made it to the ILs yet to see if she'll play, but will soon. Thanks for asking; maybe our pups are having sympathy symptoms

If she is constipated, I highly recommend pumpkin! Works wonders for my parents' dogs.

thomas930 · March 2014

@Jellysparkles Hope she perks up

Stace0616 · March 2014

Do people ever ask their doctors questions anymore? I got this giant spiral bound book explaining pregnancy and things like Braxton Hicks, signs of pre-term labor, labor bag packing suggestions, etc. All these posts are starting to remind me of the "is this kicking" stuff from second trimester.
