It's after 10am here...so many babies we forgot to confess our sins!!

nikki912 · March 2014

I purposely ate straight from the Ben and Jerry's carton last night so DH couldn't have any (I have a pretty bad cold/cough)

hlm184 · March 2014

I'm 39 1/2 weeks pregnant and still can ride my bike every day.

AmberLiz99 · March 2014

Dh is home with ds while I go to my OB appointment this morning. I am thinking of stoping and getting myself a milkshake after. I won't bother mentioning it at home

snmetz7 · March 2014

I'm having cheeots for breakfast

PoppySeedWindsor · March 2014

I really played up the pregnancy pain card this morning so I wouldn't have to make hubster's lunch for work. Not only did it get me out of that duty, but it also got me a morning latte. Yay!

hpanabaker · March 2014

I have a friend who is driving me to my appointment today, but I don't want to go with her. It's 1.5 hours away and she talks non-stop about things I don't care about...Usually I would take the opportunity to do some shopping or something while I'm out of town, but today I'm all about getting to the appointment and coming home so that I don't have to spend my entire day with her...Ugh, I feel a little bad but not really.

Rrrrrachel · March 2014

I'm on my third cup of coffee today, but they're half calf so it's ok.

ksulli · March 2014

My parents are coming to stay with us this weekend which I'm fine with, but if it were my ILs I'd be pitching a fit about hosting while waiting for labor.

ASasquatch · March 2014

Secretly pretty irritated that only 3 people shopped off our registry for the baby shower and everyone else just bought cute clothes. I know I shouldn't depend on others to buy the things my child needs but due to unforeseen circumstances our financial situation changed drastically between when we decided to have a baby and now. Was just kind of hoping to have a little bit of that financial weight taken off.
It's not that I'm not completely appreciative and grateful for all the love everyone showed for us and the baby at the shower it's just that clothes were the least of my worries with the full wardrobe my sister was awesome enough to hand down to me from her kids.

Funny! I delete people who post pictures too many pictures of their kids! Or workouts. Or food. Posting too much gets people deleted!

Yup, that happened here with my first pregnancy. Lots of clothes (that were cute but I didn't really need!) but not much off my registry.

mrscrcalli · March 2014

Didn't have a baby shower( just a small family one in November but no friends)
Didn't do maternity pictures
My sister says that means I wasn't "into my pregnancy" made me sad for only one minute before I was like GTFO. You don't know my lyyyffeeee

I read this and immediately thought of this story I read yesterday on Facebook..

acrookston · March 2014

The number of newborn outfits I received really irritated me. My DD was 7lb12oz and my MW thinks this one will def be 8 something so he probably will be too chunky for most of them. Seriously, why does everyone want to dress my kid as soon as he comes out of my vagina????

ksulli · March 2014

@kayrock18 apparently she had several plastic surgeries before they met (and didn't tell him), so he felt she misrepresented herself (or her reproductive abilities). Still, have you never seen childhood photos of your SO? And how did multiple cosmetic surgeries never come up? The whole thing is sooooo bizarre.

Kayrock18 · March 2014

I was shock to read the judge agreed with him and ruled in his favor.

FFFC: I pretended I was asleep when I answered my phone that way I could get out of going to IHOP with my girlfriend. I love IHOP but I'm not interested in hearing her talk while I'm eating plus I'm just feeling lazy and strange. If I was to go into labor I wouldn't want it to be with her around. I feel terrible saying that but I'm not.

PoppySeedWindsor · March 2014

@KendraColeslaw I'm officially stealing "Grumpy cat" from you. This describes me perfectly (Or should I say purrrrrrfectly?).

Stace0616 · March 2014

I have eaten angel food cake for breakfast every day this week. I blame the baby, plus I needed the pan clean to make bars for our party tomorrow.

I know! I think that's one of the 1st things me and my SO looked at when we went to each other's houses, when we started dating. He was totally blind sited, I can see where he's coming from though. Its a really weird story.

Alana1977 · March 2014

I baked chocolate chip cookies with my niece this morning and ate 6 of them! Sadly, all 6 were before it was even 10 am

sking72 · March 2014

I have no idea if it's an old wives' tale not to stand in front of the microwave while pregnant, but it terrifies me. Our microwave is so old and it fucks our internet up so there has to be something coming out of it. So I typically hide in a different room when I'm microwaving things.

Ashleypixie · March 2014

I made my husband go get me strawberry cheesecake pancakes from IHOP this morning for a blowjob.

#1 I've given up 'tending the garden' I can't see below the belly anymore therefore it is perfect!

#2 i use dryer sheets

What's wrong with dryer sheets?!? I use them with EVERY load. No static electricity shocking me!

baylorlinda · March 2014

I would not mind if my OB used cytotec if I were to be induced.

I read the studies and research. Most cases of uterine rupture occurred in those who had prior uterine surgery (c-section, myomectomy...) or used high doses. I would only want her to use the 25mcg dose.

X_X

Karianne02 · March 2014

I had THREE apricot kolaches for breakfast. Not 1.... not even a gluttonous 2, but 3!!! And they were fantastic!!!

We use dryer sheets when smoking weed and we're at our parents house. Just stuff a few sheets at one end of a toilet paper tube and blow through that. Voila, no weed smell.

Alas, that hasn't happen in 10+ months. (There's an FFFC for you!)

ASasquatch · March 2014

I have another one. The phrase "bag of waters" or people saying their waters broke makes me twitchy and I hate how it sounds. Maybe I'm just crazy but there is only one bag of water (obviously not talking about being pregnant with multiples) and the water only comes from one source therefore should not be a plural. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Rogue237 · March 2014

I'd rather smoke weed than a cigarette. All things non-pregnant, of course.

Rogue237 · March 2014

dani+california said:

@Dani+California people are still anti weed?
Apparently, yes. I posted a vent back in October about a party I went to where guests were smoking up and how they made comments about me simply BEING there (that I shouldn't be at a party pregnant) and how it made me feel awful. The general consensus among some posters was I should have never put myself in that situation, how irresponsible of you, the cops could take your baby away, and the usual alarmist reactions to marijuana I've become accustomed to. Good times! FFFC: I smoked occasionally pre-pregnancy and I'm sure I will again in the future. :-bd

Yeah, I don't smoke anything (bad asthma), but I'd much prefer DH have weed occasionally than smoke a cigarette occasionally.

lokimau · March 2014

sorta a FFC...

We took a roommate a few months back to help with the bills and have another adult here since my DH works so much. Cool. Everything had been great until the other day when she gets pulled over for speeding and gets arrested for a warrant in some backwoods county for failing to appear to court a few YEARS AGO!!!!!!! She said she didnt even know there was a warrant. Annoyed with the stupid legal system. Annoyed with the roommate. She could be in jail for 3 months and it happens right when we really need the income. DH is made at me because he says all I am thinking about is the money and not that out friend is in jail. Well yeah, I am thinking about the money, that is why we got a roommate. We are in our mid-thirties, we didnt get a roommate because we thought it would be fun!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stace0616 · March 2014

FFFC: I have no idea what to do with my son's penis. It seems like such a huge, personal decision--and when DH and I don't have a strong opinion either way even after doing our research, I lean towards doing nothing. I feel like he could either hate us for: circumcising and taking away an element of sexual pleasure or not circumcising and him getting made fun of by other boys in the locker room.

I don't bring this up to start a debate, I'm just having some anxiety over my inability to make a decision over an organ that I don't possess. People joke that I'm a "Type A+" so my lack of opinion and decision making is frustrating me lately. DH just tells me he doesn't have an opinion either way and trusts me to decide what is best.

Kelsey2me · March 2014

I told DH that the doctor could feel the baby's head when she checked my cervix and that he would probably be able to reach her too if we had sex. I know better, but he doesn't... It worked. And I'm so done with all things sexual. I'm justifying it by thinking it's his fault if he's not well informed

BiggerinRealLife · March 2014

FFFC: I've been looking forward to mat leave for forever. And I feel bad knowing how many women would kill to have this time off. But now that it's here I'm having a hard time mentally adjusting. I know this isn't going to be like summer vacation, but saying goodbye to my job for months, maybe years, is feeling incredibly daunting. And there is SO MUCH to do for the next four weeks I know I'll be super busy and I should be grateful for the time, but I feel like it's just stretching, empty, in front of me. I may be feeling a teeny bit depressed right now.

I'm not "into my pregnancy." Judge me.

misskristina21 · March 2014

I sent DD #2 to the nursery last night and got 4 uninterrupted hours of glorious sleep. I was still sleepy from pain meds/being put under and she did great. I feel no shame.

I think this adjustment feeling is very, very normal. Plus you are already dealing with some pretty intense emotions... Give yourself a break, lady, you are doing just fine. There's no wrong way to feel, here.

zoopsiedaisy · March 2014

I pride myself in not believing anything posted on the Internet until I've searched it in snopes or googled the validity.

I am disappointed that they say the ugly children lawsuit is only "probably false".

Hang in there! Going from working outside the home to inside the home is a big transition! It helped me to make lists and schedules for myself to help me have some structure to my days. When you feel blue, try getting out of the house for something refreshing like a pedicure, read a book at a coffee shop, or take a wishful walk through target.

---------------------- Bracing myself for the inevitable onslaught of anti-weed comments.

I like to live on the dangerous side of FFFC :-) (FFFC #3 for me...I was bracing myself, too!)

olenkapdx · March 2014

I miss getting enjoyment out of smoking weed. Last time was three years ago with a girlfriend in Amsterdam. She was sitting there puffing away at a j like it's a Marlboro, I take maybe two small hits and, all of a sudden, paranoid city. I had to go walk around outside to get air, got paranoid that people thought I was a prostitute (we were in the Red Light district), then got lost. Even though I was only a block from the coffeeshop. The night culminated with me looking in the mirror back in our hotel room and full-on freaking the fuck out. Never look in a mirror!

I smoked my face off in my 20s, though, so I guess I had a good run.
