    Nothing makes a girl feel good like being asked what her due date is, responding and then the person doing the following:

    Gasp
    Open Mouth
    "You must have a big baby."


    Last week a girl who works in my building said:" Wow!!! You're really showing now! You weren't showing that much earlier. You're sure there's just one in there?!?!"

    She's a stupid insensitive cow who is thin, perfectly coiffed and capable of wearing five inch heels every day for work. I hate her on principle and this just made it worse.

    I might add she says she has two kids of her own. So it's a little bit of jealousy that she looks great, is capable of wearing five inch heels (I only wear the mom uniform flats) and does both with two kids.

  • I've really been shocking myself with how annoyed/offended/embarrassed I get when people comment on my size.  I've already gained more than a lot of people do for their entire pregnancy, and while everyone says it's because I'm small and needed the weight to support a pregnancy, I still feel like a pig.. because I'm eating like a pig ;)

    @tourqeyes you're super adorable and I'm glad you're rational enough to know they don't mean to say it negatively.

  • Anyone else having a hard time breathing already? (gasps for air)
    Yes... the other day, I found myself gasping for air in the middle of DH and I DTD, and for once it wasn't because it was amazing, haha!

  • My Mom keeps saying how she had a hard time breathing her last month or two. I'm already feeling like I can't take in a full breath sooooo can't wait till I gain another 15lbs. Yikes

  • I just walked next door to make some copies in the work room and guess what's been sitting out since lunch time apparently? Subway trays. No one ever told me that lunch was being brought in! But sure enough, all these glorious little subs all full of deli meat and a tray of vegetables. I was so tempted to eat one (or six) but they've probably been sitting out for a few hours by now. I don't get how people can bring in lunch for the staff and not tell the staff! Sheesh.

    I feel like a heifer and I'm usually someone who just laughs off comments, you can call me anything under the sun and it doesn't really offend me. Call me fat and I'm crying in the dark sucking my thumb and holding my blankie. 

    Also, I can't breathe either.

  • I'm starting to panic because I only have 99 days left in this pregnancy if my c-section date remains the same. That is just not enough time. For some reason double digits are freaking me out and makes me realize I need to get off my ass and start getting stuff done.

    Me and you both, sister. I'm two weeks behind you (but really one with a RCS at 39 weeks) and panic has set in! So much to do! Hold me.

  • Pretty much all hugs are awkward for me because almost everyone's faces are right in my boob zone.  Sometimes I try to scrunch down for the hug not realizing the other person is going to try standing on their tip toes and then it gets even more awkward.  I generally avoid hugs as much as possible and I pretend it's because I'm not a "touchy feely" kind of person but it's really because I can't stand the awkward!  

    Also... 99 days till my EDD too.  I haven't been panicky about my due date at all until I read the mention of 99 days.  Technically that's still over 3 months but it's going to go by SOOOOOOOO fast.

    OK, but I'm an awkward hugger…

    Speaking of awkward hugs, do y'all find that there are certain friends who are "easy" to hug while others are more awkward? I think I find it most awkward to hug people who I don't consider to be very touchy feely. 

    Guilty. I was raised in a WASP family. . hugging (even my mother) means a lean in and basically only shoulders touch.

    I actually prefer the greeting my (mostly Latino) dance friends use, the cheek air kiss.

    My sister was told "you are so big! Did they tell you you're measuring big??" by a coworker. She said, "No. I'm measuring on schedule. I must just have a really large placenta." Haha I'm going to use that next time!
    Haha I kind of like that better than Uterus. PLACENTA, BITCHES!

  • 109 for me. Eff you guys :-( and your lame ovulating before me. Stupidheads.


    You guys all made me look. I have 112 days left. I have a feeling shit's going to be really real soon. Next month we start taking our classes so I know I'm going to be looking up things and spending all my head space making decisions about whatever we learned in our classes. Suddenly April will be over and then I'll be in May.

    Also, in 2-3 weeks I'll be in third trimester. WHAT THE BLOODY CRAP IS THAT?!

    Is it bad that the last few times I have added someone to my post-it I'm tempted just to list "total bitch" as the reason?

    I have to plead ignorance here - I have never understood the post it thing. Can someone enlighten me?

    ETA: 98 days! Eeek!

    I think I need to move mine to excel. It's not staying very organized on my phone.
    ----------------------------

    It cracks me up that you guys actually have a post-it! I love it! Lol I'm just really good at remembering who pissed me off. And I'm a Taurus. we hold grudges like nobodies business. So I've heard :p
  • 1) I apparently have 115 days to my EDD & that seems crazy to me.

    2) I live in Nashville & we've had freaky, white out snow for most of the day. What happened to my lovely spring weather?!

    3) I got a massage & facial today & now want a nap because I feel so relaxed :-)

    @JP27 112 days here too! As if that wasn't enough thanks for letting me in on the 2-3 weeks and we're in the third trimester   :-O

  • Woahhh, 106 days until my guess date.  That's way to close to double digits.  Who's idea was it to check on that?  


    Ugh, I'm having a resurgence of worry that my DD is going to hate me when baby is here (not from checking on the days, just in general).
    I have the same fear with my daughter

    On a related note, why can't medical professionals just agree upon a date when the second and third trimesters start?  It's so silly to me that it's all over the place.  I have googled and people place it anywhere from 25 weeks (when you are technically 2/3rds done, based on not actually being pregnant those first 2 weeks in the 40 week count), 26w6d/27 weeks (based on 2/3rds of 40 weeks), and 28-30 weeks (based on what?!  I have no idea).   


        



  • 1. There was left over spaghetti in the fridge and I just knew when I got home I was gonna chow down on it. I come home, it's gone -_-

    2. I've been really wanting to see cirque du sole (spelling?) and even told it to my friends how I wanted to see it. I get a casual call today from one friend telling me how they are going to cirque du sole tonight. Not only that but one of the friends who was supposed to go is now sick but instead gave her ticket to a random friend. -_- Idc if it's selfish, I'm pissed that they knew I wanted to go and didn't offer it to me! I'd have paid for my own damn ticket if they'd have just told me they were going!

    Overall, I feel like snapping necks tonight.

    I hope it's not 25 weeks. I hit that on Sunday and I'm not ready for 3rd tri!

  • @mrscurlygurl, despite being a bit freaked out about 99 days, for some reason potentially being able to consider myself in the 3rd trimester at 25 weeks made me excited!  But I think only because it has felt like I'm "about halfway" FOR. EH. VER. and I guess I'm excited about a new fraction in my life! ;-)

    Also... I'm constantly stuck with these competing feelings of not feeling ready to have baby here just yet, but also being SO done with work and ready to just focus on my family for awhile!

        



  • I think I'll go with 27 weeks which is exactly the start of the last third of 40 weeks... a week from tomorrow  :-O
