@Eija3014 Britax are great carseats. Hmm, wonder if you could get an infant seat and a convertible?
Or one for each car?
That's the plan if we do get two of the same infant seat... But I'm really not sure what they'll have to say about us not having twins. It wasn't required to enter the giveaway (obviously) but I'm not sure if they have a back up plan for singleton parents.
So I'm walking the dogs and out of nowhere I gotta poop. I went up the stairs to my apartment quickly, thinking "holy shit, I'm literally going to shit my pant!". I go to the restroom and then...nothing. Absolutely nothing! Sat on my toilet and nothing happened. Dios mio!
Soory TMI?
Weird that you said this. I have had that same crampy I'm going to have diarrhea feeling for three days, but nothing. So weird.
SO and I finally decided the two of us can not comfortably fit on the couch. And seeing as when he comes to my house, his sleep schedule is really screwy (he works nights) we do a lot of napping together. Solution? We brought a twin mattress down to the living room so I'm not flipping around waking him up constantly. What actually ended up happening: SO sleeping on the couch, the dogs and I on the mattress on the floor. How did this happen??
Why do my boobs look so good? Then I peed on a stick...
Dude what the mother fucking fuck? Those parenting bitches be crazy. I understand disagreeing with people, but just one comment is all you need. Not this, "but you said..." And "I just have a problem when you say...." And attacks on every parenting decision someone will ever make? And then she takes pride in the fact that they, "call people out on the stupid things people say" Really? You lurk over here to call people out on some dumb comment on an IV? Get a life. I generally like everyone and give people the benefit of the doubt but these chicks are MEAN. And really what IS this weird obsession they have with teenage boys? That siggy is ridiculous and creepy. I have no idea why I'm so irrationally annoyed by this and swearing so much but my contractions are hella big today so sorry guys! I'll turn my nice back on

Are you sure you're not having contractions? That's how mine start. I feel like I'm about to blow ass but I couldn't if I tried. Then....contractions.

This. Thank you @Ashleypixey for saying what I was trying to say and failed!
The only siggy I have an issue with is cinemagoddess, I like Benedict Cumberbatch as much as anyone, but thats' a whole heap of too much love going on there.

It is! Maybe it comes with the baby growing. Who knows.
I don't know but all those little curly haired bastards look way too damn young and girly for me. And I'm assuming all those women in parenting are older than I am, because it takes years of experience in bitchiness to become that good at being bitchy. GOD!!! I'm becoming just as bad! Ashley, stop it.

Idk. Never had contractions before. Maybe it was. Oh dear, I'm a little freaked out now :-SS
Don't worry, they aren't always labor contractions. They might not even be contractions at all but that's how mine feel like and since I'm having them right now it's all I can even think about. I could be totally wrong. I need to ice my ute.

True that, they are probably different for everyone. So sorry you get them all them time, that's not fun.
DH just informed me that his work conversation with other dad's and soon to be dads was about how much weight their wives gained during pregnancy. WTF? The men need to learn the rules about such things.
His defense: he didn't bring it up, just participated after someone else breached the subject.
I've instructed him that he shall never discuss any part of my medical history with anyone other than me or the doctor (with me present) ever again. I didn't think that would have been necessary... Apparently I was wrong.
If DH tells one more person it looks like I'm stealing a basketball I am going to rip his balls off. I'm so tired of hearing it. He also told his doctor (who is 33 wks and has a long torso and legs for days) she has a tiny cute bump and I'm waddling around because I'm 'compact' FUCK YOU dude! I can't help im 5 foot nothing and have a child size torso. This baby has no where to go but out! T. To the mother fuckin P.
About that cluster fuck in the low blood sugar thread: I think all those parenting bitches are just a bunch of drama queens who immediately get defensive about their parenting styles. Do I plan to EBF? Hells yea as long as it's possible. Does that mean that I feel superior to or judge a woman who FF for her own reasons? Absolutely fucking not. The ONLY thing that matters is that baby is nourished. Just because someone chooses one style DOES NOT mean they think something is WRONG with the other.

Don't hate me but the basketball thing is cute lol. I can see how it bugs you though. Can I confess something? I'm one of those tall long torso women who doesn't look 9 months pregnant and I always feel guilty when I run into short pregnant women because I know the pressures and insecurities that come with pregnancy. I always avoid the "how far along are you" discussions at all costs because I always feel guilty when I'm like four weeks further along than someone and look smaller. I know every pregnancy is different but I still feel awkward around other pregnant women.
@deidremaria lol! It wouldn't bother me so much if he didn't point it out All. The. Time! The other day I said "god this just isn't even cute anymore it's massive" he said "yea" augh!!!!

Ugh I hate conversations about how "not big" I am...yeah I know I am measuring small...the Dr.s have told me that, it doesn't mean "I got it easy" or I am any more comfortable then someone who isn't...and it doesn't mean I am lying when I say I am due in April. People are just douches about size no matter how you carry....be it small, big, wide, long....whatever.
EXACTLY!!!! I hate when I get the sideeye about back aches! It's annoying. Pregnancy is worse than puberty. If you're too big your over eating, if you're too small your harming your baby. Fuck you. How bout that
It bothers me that people think it's okay to comment on how big or small a pregnant woman is. I had a random person tell me that I looked like I was due tomorrow, not April 1st.... I really just wanted to say something bitchy back but I'm terrible with confrontation... Grrrrr
Our dog can be such a shithead. I made sure the door to the garbage can was closed tight before we left the house and that the bedroom doors were closed (so he couldn't get into bathroom garbage). The dog instead found my lunch bag on the bench in the mud room at proceeded to unzip the bag, chew the lid off a pyrex container to lick the remnants of my lunch. He also tore apart the baggies and left everything all over the living room floor. I just don't have the patience for that bs. Who le's their dogs have basically free reign over the house when you are gone? If it were up to me, he would be gated in the mudroom where his kennel and dog dish are. I told DH that the dog is this close to that reality. Especially when the baby is here, I do not have the desire to dog proof the house every time I leave. Ugh, just frustrated right now.

So question for you all. DH and I installed the bases in our cars tonight. But just left the seat in the house. DH wanted me to leave it in my car but I don't think so. We'll have plenty of time to click it in once I go into labor right? Now it would just take up space...
Yeah, I'm getting a little tired of the "you finally look a little pregnant" comments from friends. People are annoyed that they can't feel the baby kick. I feel like I've let people down with my pregnancy!

Yeah no way does my dog get free reign! The world would come to an end. She gets crated when we leave.

The only thing is if you need to head there straight from another location before going home. Unlikely scenario though. We just grabbed it on the way out but I can see how that would be nerve wracking to some.
April 2014 May Siggy Challenge: Funny Animals- Kangaroo Mating Ritual
Tonight, DD asked DH why he was so sad. He told her about his friend passing away. She said "Sorry, daddy. Cheer up. I love you." and he cried. I had to excuse myself from the room for an ugly cry.

I'm in the same situation with my dogs. They stay in the kitchen. It's such a process to leave anywhere because I have to take the trash out, put the fruit bowl on top of the fridge, and make sure the door to the laundry room is shut tight so they can't eat out of the litter box. I have no clue how people let their dogs just hang out anywhere while they aren't home! Aren't all dogs stupid jerks?

Ours has free reign. We used to crate him as a pup, then slowly gave him access to more and more rooms over time. Ie, his crate would be open in the sunroom, but the sunroom was blocked off from the rest of the house. Then the kitchen, then the main floor, and eventually the whole house.
I think it just depends on your dog, but also be mindful of what's left in their reach! I learned quickly to put tempting things away...candy on the coffee table, dishes off tables, etc. He's 3 now and we trust him completely, he's great.
If it helps, while we were giving him more free reign we set up our home laptop that has a built-in webcam facing the most open area of our house. I downloaded an app called JumiCam and I could see what he was up to from my cellphone while I was at work! If I caught him on the couch, I could press a button and talk to him through my computer and tell him to get off. The look on his face was priceless. Good luck!
That's awesome about the camera! It's just that adding the baby brings a whole new level of keeping things out of dog reach every time we leave the house. I just don't know.

I had 2 80lb mutts growing up and we never crated either of them and never had any problems. We did have to lock the garbage in the pantry because no matter what we tried they would never resist knocking it over and tearing it apart if it was left open. I miss those 2 goofy mutts :-(
I don't want to crate the dog, just gate him in the mud room. He spends a majority of his day either sleeping in his crate (door open) in the mud room or on his pillow anyhow. That is, after he has taken advantage of our mistakes regarding any access at all to anything off limits to him.

I am paying for the great night of sleep that I got last night. It is 11:30 here and I am wide awake. Normally it would be almost time for mt first bathroom break. The thing that sucks is that physically I am tired so I don't feel like doing anything so I am just going to lay here forever. I have too much on my mind tonight.

Maybe it comes with the baby growing. Who knows.

So sorry you get them all them time, that's not fun.
The other day I said "god this just isn't even cute anymore it's massive" he said "yea" augh!!!!
