  • I didn't get stretch marks until 37w last time. :(
    I think that's going to be me. I don't have any yet, but my skin feels so tight that I can't imagine it will be able to hold out much longer.

  • @Bluebird2318‌ Yes! It's not exclusively little babies either. My mommy senses aren't just tingling, those bitches are ON FIRE! I almost had to excuse myself from my brother's piano recital because there was a tiny Japanese boy (probably about 4) in a tuxedo who preformed and I was getting out of control lol
  • The midwife did my group B strep swab today then asked me if I wanted her to check me. I actually said, "check me for what?" Face palm....then I realized she meant for dilation. Oops. Is it UO that I don't care and said no?
  • @speechie517‌ from a recent thread, seems like a lot of us are refusing the internal exams. I am, unless any concerns arise. But for me, I care TOO much and I need to stop myself from obsessing over it. I'll just be disappointed no matter what so I'd rather not know.
  • I thought I was going to one of the lucky few who don't get stretch marks or at least very few. Wrong! I was hoping it would be more gradual instead of obviously noticeable right away.

    Alright, I'm screwed then. Thanks for the warning!
  • @Serenla I WANT THAT CAKE!  And yes, I'm yelling at you because I really want it.  BTW, you look great in your photo.  Now about that cake...

  • Im so annoyed!!

    I was going to leave work 2 hrs early today (I am my own boss, and I have some lieu hours owed to me, thought finishing early on a Friday sounded like heaven). How wrong I was. A friend came in so I agreed to stay to x-ray him, then just as I turned off the machine, I get informed of a pt with a query dislocation of his shoulder. So x-rayed them, and because it looks like its dislocated, I have to stay for the post reduction images. 

    I WANNA GO HOME!!!!!

    It's super cruel that the nesting urge hits strong when you're miserable if you're on your feet for more than 30 minutes at a time...
    Right? This nesting thing is bullshit. My mind is saying "your gunna do all the things!" and your body go "haha no"

    Yes! I wish I'd been informed to take advantage of 2nd tri to get things done, with that short lived return of energy and smaller bump size.

    ----------------------------------

    I think that'll be me too. My mom said she only gained 18 pounds with my brother (her first) and got them, but my sister didn't get any with her first and gained over 30. She gained about the same with her second and only got a few around her belly button that you can't even see anymore (her daughter is 5). I'm hoping I'll have her luck since everyone says they're genetic, but I somehow doubt I'll be that lucky!

    Some crazy on my FB feed posted a TED talk about how it's unsafe to use a car seat after age 2.
    Uhhhh what?

  • @stace0616 mobile won't let me love it, but I do! I really, really do!
  • I'm about to fucking kill "housekeeping" both of our neighbors got discharged today and they decided to clean the rooms at 11:45 PM and slam every door possible. I'm tired, cranky, and all I want is quiet. X(

  • I swear all of my stretch marks magically appeared this past week. I was complaining to my Mom and I said something about them being genetic and she informed me that she didn't get stretch marks from me or my brother.... So I guess I have to blame my Dad's side of the family.... I just need to blame someone dammit!!

  • I'll catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and see claw marks and immediately think they're stretch marks...good times.

  • Itchy nipples anyone? Just started up for me... will lotion do the trick? Dr. Google (who led me to baby center) said it was the nipple stretching and getting ready for milk... ring true?

  • @KatieGummow‌ I use a&d ointment because we have so much left around the house from our tattoos. I love the way it smells and feels, so it works for me! I *believe* any kind of moisturizer for skin is fine for nipples now, but when we are nursing we have to be mindful of what babies can/can't ingest. HTH :)
  • I'm having the chest pains again, and I think I finally felt some BH for sure. This time, it felt like my stomach muscles were flexing without me voluntarily flexing them. That sounds much closer to what everyone was describing a while back...

    As if the cramping, BH, and chest pains weren't enough, I've had a weird pressure in my temples all day, stabbing pain in one hip, spells of dizziness, and gas pains to top that all off. Today can be over now, please and thank you. /whine

    Is it wrong for me to be a little upset that a "friend" of mine let me know today that she won't be able to make it to my shower on Saturday b/c it's her annual girls day drunkfest (or something to that affect)? Poor thing had to miss it last year cause she was pregnant and it's really the only day of the year she has to "let loose". Sorry, end rant. I just feel like it's a little messed up... But maybe it's just my hormones

    Absolutely not! Oh poor dear had to miss getting hammered last year because she was pregnant, and God forbid she should grow the fuck up now that she's a parent. If it's that important to you to get wasted cause its the "only time ever in the history of ever that you get to let go and act like a stupid college student", fucking reschedule it.

    Get the fuck off my lawn.

    Jesus, I think I just got a little irrationally upset for you.

  • Sometimes logging on Facebook makes me want to smash all the things. I was reading a conversation in which this woman told some family member of hers that she doesn't understand why he always feels the need to express his disagreement with her opinions and that he needs to educate himself on the real problems that exist with our (United States) government. 


    She goes on to say that the best solution is for everyone to wrest themselves from the cold, steely grip of government control because they force us into a system of life that revolves around acquiring and paying off debts. According to her, what needs to happen is that we oppose the government and live off the grid, because until we are capable of that there is no solution. And then about three comments down she says "What we need is Ron Paul or someone like him. Now that's a real man." ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?
