Re: Longest Thread EVER! (aka Random Thoughts Thread )

  • And then DH goes and does something super sweet and says I can pick any name I want and it will stay on the list because I've had such a rough time and my input should mean just a little bit more.

    Eliza May STAYS.
    Which of course means we'll have a boy.

    Pick one of each that you want! Then when it comes time, you can say DH told you to pick your favorite and you'd just assumed that meant one of each.

  • @honeyzoo I've mentioned this before. I've been getting this!! Have your SO take his elbow and press right in to the muscle. It hurts like HELL, but, it releases the muscle. Works every time for me!

    Shoot :( it's 65 and sunny with a slight breeze! Just perfect. I was hoping you guys were getting some too!
    Shoot! Ladies, come visit meeee! We've had to put on our AC or have our fans running here in the East Bay. My mom got to go back to AK with a tan.
    My parents in Napa said it is 80 today! So nuts!
    It's amazing! I should take advantage of it while I can.

  • My belly is so big and so tight and so itchy I just want to cry all day.

    Not that I need sympathy from anyone, I just needed to get that off my chest and you ladies are the most appropriate audience.

    Mine has been feeling very itchy today too. I feel your pain. A Lotion swimming pool sounds so nice!
  • It was in the 70s all week..until today 37! :( I thought this was over :(

  • 53 here! It's beautiful!
  • Ugh, sounds like a lot of our SO/DH are having some sort of melt down?

    My DH has been great!  I tell my parents and in-laws and friends how sweet and helpful he's been all the time.  He gets a goofy grin on his face and rubs my belly all the time and seems geniunly excited about baby.

    Well last weekend I invited all his friends over for his 30th bday.  Bought a ton of pizza, bought him about $130 worth of presents ( a game rule book and some 15 year old Glenfiditch scotch) and I stayed up till 3am with everybody even though I had a headache and had worked that morning.  He did have to do almost all of the cleaning because I was at work all week.

    Then the next day we did dinner with his parents.  We see his parents at least monthly, at times more often because they are closer than my parents.  My parents visit every few months.

    I havent been to my parents house in I think 2 years.  They wanted to celebrate his birthday and my brothers.  Well since they always make the 4 hour drive to come to us we agreed (together) that we'd go to visit them this weekend.

    He complains the whole way.  Can you just go by yourself?  Its not too late to turn around.  Didnt I say we werent going to drive on their crappy road this time of year ever again?  Ugh!  Then when he gets there he wants to take our dog for a walk before even saying hi.  Then sleeps on the couch while the rest of us play games.

    Well he seemed really tired so I drove the 4 hour trip home.  I stop half way to stretch my legs, pee, and I grab a soda and small fries from Burger King.  Before going in I asked "do you want to come in?"  he said no and fell back asleep.

    We get home at 1am and he's pissed but wont tell me why and plays video games, so I go to bed.  When he came to bed I asked what was wrong, what is he mad at?  Apparently me.  Because I didnt get anything for him from Burger King?!  Or I should have at least asked...

    Now today he's still pissed off. And I was like are you seriously pissed because I didnt get you a burger and do you hear how ridiculous that is?  So he's like its not just that.  You're selfish and its really been getting to me lately.  I ask about what?  Nothing.  He goes back to his movie.

    So I really have no f'ing idea what I did!?  I work 40 hours a week and Im 8 months pregnant.  Im uncomfortable and exhausted all the time.  Its all I can do to cook supper when I get home at 7pm or later after an hour commute. 

    WTF?!?  Where did my husband go?

    Today was sunny/hailing/gale force winds/temps from the 40's to the 20's kind of day. 
    Now its back to just the gale force winds. 

    I was going to edit something...but, then realized it didn't need editing...

  • I think this girl moved lower... And cut off my ability to poop. Not happy about it.
    Why do my boobs look so good?image
    Then I peed on a stick...image
  • Little man dropped a little. He's out of my lungs, mostly, and making me poop several times a day (have I been in labor all week??), and pee every five minutes. I'm stoked not to share a body much longer.

    I just downed a bunch of prunes! I honestly can't tell if my guy has dropped or not. I'm feeling a lot more pressure!!! But I'm still feeling that its hard to catch my breath, so, I just don't know! (I can't tell from our pictures at all!)

    I just smile and nod when you guys start talking temperatures. I have NO idea how to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius.
    I have to google! Someone said it was 20 degrees, and my first thought was that sounds like our temp. Then I remembered that's Fahrenheit...

    I finally have a general idea, but, most of them time, I use a converter. No shame! LOL 
    Its pretty easy since its been around 0-4c here. (Though it was up the 8c earlier in the day!)

    On the flip side, I never EVER remember what my height is in centimeters. I've been asked several times since I've been in pre-natal care and I ALWAYS have to be measured. And right now, I have no clue what my height is, again. I'm 5 feet 4 inches dammit! :-D
    should be around 164cm. I'm 160cm with is 5'3" (ish!)

  • I'm so jealous of all of the west coast warm temps!! It only got up to 30ish here in New England today and I think it's supposed to continue to be cold all week. I feel like this winter is just never going to end..... Why do I live here again??

  • 16 degrees here in New York :( I wish I lived somewhere warm, or had spring break. I'm doing this all wrong..

    164 sounds about right, but still, I lived with 5'4" since I was 15! haha. How can I be expected to remember anything else at the ancient age of 34??!

    OMG @Poru, I want that.  WANT it.


    Nicole Mackenzie - I kinda wonder if this isn't really about a burger, y'know?  Maybe he's having some trouble adjusting to the idea that you guys are going to have a baby really, really soon, and his freakout is manifesting itself as him deciding you're selfish.  He's also kinda acting like a kid himself; maybe he needs to get it out of his system before he has to man up and be a parent.  Note that I don't excuse it.  Sorry you're going through that.
    He is acting childish. Maybe he's realizing he's 30 now and going to be a dad and it's overwhelming.

    I know I've no been very helpful lately. Especially today... Because I'm upset.

    I feel like I'm going to scream hurtful things at him if I attempt to talk to him right now so I'm avoiding him until Im less upset.

    This is probably proving his point as to how selfish I am. :(

    On a good note I actually walked the dog today.
  • It just started snowing here in DC :((

  • Catching up on some threads from over the weekend. So much butt hurt the last couple of days. I mean really... I had an actually hole carved into my ass on Friday and I think I am less butt hurt than some of these ladies!

    I think you need a badge made for this specifically. A "less butthurt than you" badge!  How are you feeling today??

    Ha! I'd rock that badge with honor :-)
    I'm feeling pretty good today. Doc said everything is looking good. Hopefully just healing up a couple more days and getting back to getting ready for baby! I can't believe after all this I have to give BIRTH and day now!

  • It was super sunny and gorgeous looking out in upstate NY today, but it was still pretty freakin cold. For some reason I thought it was going to be 50, but I was wrong, and now there is frozen poop covered dog crate sitting on my porch, waiting to be hosed off...

    Snowing here too. I've missed so much of RTT, I don't know where to start! I'm pretty pumped for walking dead tonight, especially because tomorrow is my first day of mat leave :bz I'm keeping the kids home from daycare for a full week of March break style fun :) I'm totally jealous of anyone with nice weather. It's so cold!!
