    Dude these hot flashes are no joke.

    No kidding. I almost passed out in Babies R Us and Walmart this afternoon.
    Oh wow that's kinda scary. You better start taking it easy missy.

    Hot flashes? I'm FREEZING all the time it seems like...

    Also, just went to Target and I think I had a contraction getting out of the car. My lower belly cramped up so bad I couldn't move for a minute. Is that a BH? I'm a dumb FTM, I have no clue what it was but it's the first time it's happened.

    I am really enjoying watching Bridezillas Marriage Bootcamp on netflix right now. AND I DONT CARE WHO KNOWS IT! Really wishing they still had Jersey Shore on there because I don't think I can handle starting the Kardashians from the begin and I just want to watch some trash tv!

    DD and I love bridezillas. She just loves the opening song where the cartoon bride screams. ;)

    @sking72‌ Have you watched My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding yet? That's pretty trashy but they've only got a handful episodes on Netflix.

    No!!! Now I have something to watch after this last episode! Have you seen gypsy sisters or something? I watched it when I had cable and it was NUTS

    It features a lot of the same women from Gypsy Sisters. And focuses a lot on those damn bling bling dresses. You'll love it!

    I've been feeling so out of sorts today. Feverish but no fever, heartburn after every bland thing I've put in my mouth, sweating for no reason, and I even took a three hour nap today. I haven't napped in months. No idea what is going on with my body right now and baby isn't due for a whole month so I doubt it's labor.

    Gypsy Sisters is my favorite!  It's a sad, pathetic addiction that I can't kick...  They are ridiculous!

    I'm so sick of visitors!!! Everyone over stays their welcome and steals my baby for hours at a time. My MIL is the only one who came over and started cleaning and helping around the house. She kissed the baby and told me to rest and she would do the house work!
    Bless her!!! I'm embarrassed at the state of my house be too tired to clean it for the visitors!

    Also, no one is bringing me Thin Mints :((

    That's nice of your mil! With my first, I got sick of visitors, so I just started hiding away and saying I needed space, and quiet time with the baby. They eventually got the hint and went away. Sorry, but manners do not apply when you're a brand new mama!

    Same thing for me. I have NO appetite anymore. I've actually lost some weight. Even though I'm forcing myself to eat I have barely any room in my stomach and am full after just a few bites.

    Went to Target to stock up on postpartum supplies today, and I picked up a pair of their biggest yoga pants and hoped for best. I ripped a hole in my maternity jeans, and I refuse to replace them at this point. I figure I can wear giant yoga pants for a while after the baby too.

    I am so amazingly comfortable right now! So much better than the pajama bottoms I've been straining to squeeze on. Why didn't I listen to A14 sooner?

    I'm ALL about the yoga pants. I need to buy more pairs :) I only wear pants when absolutely necessary.

    Also, the sweet girls at my work are throwing me a shower tomorrow and I'm so excited. Mostly to hang out and eat awesome food... I've only been on Mat leave for a week and I miss them!

    That would be me. I'm making him run out and get me jimmy johns right now. This is the only pregnancy food run I've asked for, but I think eating my breakfast justifies it.
    I've barely eaten today. Poor DS threw up 3 times but still wanted to play outside (even though the wind was freezing) so I've been dealing with that all day while DH stayed on the couch and worked. I'm pooped and starving and he was sitting here eating cereal and I'm like "bring me foooooood."
    If he fucks it up I'm going to turn into the hulk, I can feel it.

    Baby's head is so low that I think he is blocking my ability to pee. I feel like I have to go so bad, but I can only go a little bit at a time. No UTI symptoms, so it isn't that and when he's moving this isn't a problem. So annoying.

    My taste buds have gone on strike today.  I made apple pie oatmeal in the crock pot last night.  Three apples, apple sauce, over 1/2 cup brown sugar, lots of cinnamon and nutmeg.  I was so disappointed in how bland it was.  DH, on the other hand, was raving about it and DS asked for seconds.

    We had tomato soup and cheese toasties for lunch, made with sharp cheddar, it was bland too.

    Spaghetti with pesto sauce and lots of parmesan for dinner, still bland.

    I've made butterscotch pudding for desert, it is now cooling in the fridge.  If it is bland too, I'm gonna be so upset.  The only thing I've had today that has been really tasty was a cherry coke.  I might end up going out for more if this pudding doesn't meet my expectations.

    That is such a bummer.  I hope he moves soon so you can have a good pee.

    That happened to me today as well! I've had Pop-tarts, pickles, Velveeta Mac and Cheese--nothing seems to be tasting the way it's supposed to. Even the couple pieces of chocolate I've had out of the candy dish tasted off. Yet, for all the blandness, STILL the heartburn. What gives???

    I am very jealous of all you ladies with spring like temperatures! Mother nature teased us yesterday with some high 50's but fell right back into the 20's today. Possible snow Monday :-( I cannot wait for some prolonged spring temps!

    Hahaha me too! Every time I go it's just a trickle. Then I lay back down and feel like I have to go again.

    I have so much rectal pressure. I feel like this baby is going to fly out my bum.

    Holy crap is this true. It's such a terrible feeling for me. Add this to the "shit they don't tell you before you get pregnant" list. :-S

    Ugh... I'm sorry people are over- staying their welcome...

    I'm really nervous about this happening after LO arrives. DH's extended family is huge and they are already talking about coming over to see the baby.

    After more than 14 months of marriage I finally got around to boxing up my wedding gown, veil etc for preservation. DH is glad to no longer have it taking up room in our closet LOL.

    I've been married 3 years, and my dress is still hanging in the back of our closet. It hasn't even been cleaned...oops

    Anyone have advice on how to ease inner thigh pain? Laying in the tub helped while I was in it, but moving is ridiculous.

    Just found a hole in my favorite pair of maternity jeans...too much wear in the inner thighs where they rub against each other. I'm super sad about it

    I ripped little holes in the outer corners of the back pockets (where the grommet is attached) on a $200 pair of maternity jeans. Kept pulling them up by the pockets, maternity jeans are so awkward since they have no waistband to hold them up! Anyhow, I just cut little patches of that iron-on denim patch stuff and ironed them on from the inside, then hand stitched the corners of the patches for reinforcement. Maybe you could try the same?

    I just watched the Happiest Baby on the Block video with DH. We are amazed and hope the techniques really work as well as they do in the video!
    They really really do! We LOVED that book and DVD.

    Oh good. I just downloaded the book last night!

    I'm definitely no seamstress but I guess it would be worth a shot to save the jeans. Luckily the hole is in the crotch essentially so it shouldn't be too bad to repair even if it looks ugly.

    You definitely don't need to be a seamstress to repair it. You just need an iron, the demin patch stuff (which you can even get at some grocery stores) and a basic mending kit (needle and thread). You don't have to stitch the corners, but I recommend it as the patch can want to peel up because most denim is stretch and gives some when you wear it. Because you are doing this from the inside (turn jeans inside out) it definitely won't be obvious, especially it being the crotch.

    Prettyyyyy sure our washing machine has something wrong with it. Some of the sounds it makes are a little scary. Perks of renting- if it goes they have to replace it. For freeeeee.

    Also- spring means allergies and ants. Already found some in the kitchen tonight. Those bastards. Two years ago they were all over my house that I shared with a roommate. We would wake up in the morning to ants just crawling on every surface no matter how well we cleaned/sprayed. It was a nightmare!
