Ugh! So pissed! DH left my leftovers out on the counter while I went to a bridal shower today. I had full intentions of eating that for supper. Don't mess with a pregnant lady's food!
So when I first joined these boards I thought half of you were nuts and the other half were people I'd never find a connection with.
I'm really glad I stuck around because I'm quite fond of you all now :P
Eta: correcting auto correct
In the beginning, I repeatedly told people IRL that I tried to find a pregnancy board (since I don't know any pregnant people locally) but all of the women online were crazy snarky biatches. Glad I stuck around too! :x
First world problem: we are going to Puerto Rico next weekend. We aren't staying in a beachside resort, and I'm worried he is going to be bored since all I want to do is lay around and read.
I can't stand Liv Tyler. It's something about her mouth. I have a similar hatred for Drew Barrymore and her mouth.
Leo DiCaprio has a block shaped head that prevents me from finding him attractive, however, I like him as an actor.

Fraaaaak I forgot to register for birth again. Again. I'm really failing at this STM thing. It's supposed to be done between 18 and 20 weeks. Oops. The registration is closed tomorrow.
You whaaaaaaa?! Are those dates standard? Am I really behind? :-/
For my hospital they want you to register before week 20. I doubt they will turn you away if you try to do it now
It was super nice when I went in with some bleeding that they had all my records though!
I don't ever go to McDonalds. I prefer Wendy's if I'm going that route, but twice in the last 2-3 weeks I have attempted to go to 2 different locations for an Oreo mcflurry. Both times I was told their ice cream machine was down. WTH?!? I gave the first place a pass because it was still the morning and maybe that's the line the run before they get the machine going, but 2 in the afternoon at a totally different location and the same thing? I think that may be the last time I ever attempt to get anything from McDs. Thank goodness for Dairy Queen close to home. Had an Oreo blizzard instead and I'm sure it was 1000x better than what I would have gotten.
That shit has happened to me with McDonalds before too. Pretty much the only thing I'll eat from there are McFlurries. I agree that blizzards are better though.
I've been in a complete anxious funk all day, so I just watched 30 min worth of pregnancy announcement videos on youtube. Those and puppy/kitten videos are my new xanax.
Talked with a friend this weekend who is a NICU respitory therapist at our hospital, and she was telling me that my Dr will basically give me an ultrasound at any appointment if I want. She also said the Dr try to get me off work starting at 32 weeks (which I don't want to do $$ wise, but still good to know)
I'm at my cousins sweet 16 and I am just so awkward and out of place. She's got her friends mostly and the family. Her friends are in a separate room because they need to be "cool" away from us. Which is fine. Except the food is in the room with them. And I'm hungry. Very very hungry. So I keep waddling in the room munchin on food lol. I think I embarrassed her when Ariana grande came on and I danced my pregnant booty off. Oops. I'm about to embarrass her again because guess what just came on? The wobble.
Waddle baby waddle baby waddle baby waddle!
This is soo late but I just had to google Ariana Grande, never heard of her. The Way... what the I thought that was Mariah Carrie damn that girl can sing!

Listen to her whole album if you get a chance. It's really good! ---------------------------
YES! Do what she says! Except "baby I". I don't care for that song at all.
DH and I shared a glass of wine at dinner yesterday. I have not had any since I found out I was pregnant. It was the most delicious wine in the world! I just wanted to have the whole bottle. This is why I shouldn't even have started.
I recently broke out in a bunch of red bumps all over my chest and back. They aren't dense enough or close together so they don't seem like a rash. They look like inflamed big bites (but they aren't), they're all peeling alf dry and awful and nothing is helping! I can't even find an explanation for it within the depths of the internet. I'm so frustrated and confused at what Is going on!
I have the stupidest conundrum... I am technically due Aug 3, but will most likely have my RCS on July 30th. So, I have been in July the whole time. I changed my due date on the Bump to July 30th so the app would send me to the correct "Birth Club", But, now I want to change my ticker to be more correct, but I would no longer be on the Sunday ticker change. Oh what to do, what to do.

My ticker is technically one day behind.. it bugs my slight obsessive compulsive tendencies, but I've been too lazy to make a new one and with all the new changes with the bump I'm kind of afraid to even try.
I went ahead and did it so the days left part is correct. I guess I will now jump into Wednesday's ticker changes. Baby won't be exactly 40 weeks when born, but it only changed it by 4 days.
I just had a crazy bout of pregnancy brain. I meant to ask, "are we taking a shower?" Instead I said, "are we eating dinner...in our tank tops?" Seriously, WTAF??
I love how every time you talk about your boy or pregnancy, you are so damn happy. I feel the exact same way, especially IRL, and all of my friends roll their eyes and tell me to shut up. They all hated being pregnant. I'm absolutely in love with it. I don't think I've ever been this happy.

I have died every day waiting for you. Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years. And all along I believed I would find you, time has brought your heart to me. I have loved you for a thousand years. I'll love you a thousand more.
There was that thread about a week ago about making your own hospital gown, and a couple people linked some robes from an etsy shop. Well as I looked around her shop I fell in love with these kaftans! I love how the buttons go down so they'll be great for breastfeeding and nice and loose for my healing c-section incision. I wanted them for postpartum at home more so than in the hospital. So I asked if she can make them knee-length and if I'd get a discount for ordering 3. And yup, she'll make me 3 for $30 each plus she has like 300 fabrics to choose from! I thought knee length will be nice and cool in the summer, and can always wear leggings under if needed. Yay! This is definitely my big splurge for *me.*

Basically, we're twinsies.
EEEEEEEEEE this made me happy dance, just because I'm glad it isn't causing chicks to be all GAG, you know? I kind of get the same reaction from some women, but I'm not letting anyone mess with my rainbow during this time. I am finding pregnancy to be a fulfilling and as much of a joy as I wanted it to be for years. I waited a long time, so it's a real thrill for me and something to marvel at :-) thank you for shouting that out, it made me grin!
I'm loving it too (both your post and pregnancy) and never shut up about the babyquakes happening in my belly. The other day I finally had the OMG I JUST WANT HIM IN MY ARMS NOWWWWW revelation and it made me ohsohappy. squees all around
I just got home from picking my kids up and omg, I have never seen such a tantrum before. Some kid was in trouble for something and flipped the eff out. Now I've seen some tantrums before (I probably threw some myself) but damn, this kid was possessed. Her eyes were bright red and her face was all wet and snotty. She was jumping and stomping and literally flipped over a table. I'm pretty sure I saw her hurl wooden puzzle at someone. She was kicking and running and hitting and it was just an ugly mess. I got out of there so fast and thanked my lucky stars my kids are quiet when they're angry. (Then again....the quiet ones are the ones you should watch out for O.O)

I keep wishing it was possible to take the baby out and hold her for a little bit and then put her back in there to finish baking! ;-)

I always feel good when things snowball when they are liked. It makes me feel better for getting called out on here when I'm a jerk like whining in the corner about love tits.
And I think that makes perfect sense for the c section comment. I liked he kaftan and the blonde pregnant chick modeling it looks great, however since I am not planning on a c section I do not want to accentuate my post partum bump to draw attention to the fact it still looks like there is a baby in there. Contract, uterus, contract!!!
According to the midwife today, my uterus is measuring right on track, thank you very much lady in the elevator who told me I was going to have a big baby!!!
Am I horrible person because as excited as I am about Robbie getting here and know in going to love him so much but I still care about my career goals and know I still will when he gets here?
2 people have looked at me like I'm crazy because I'm still packing my development plan from work with stuff even though I'll be out for 2 months. And told me you won't care about that in a few months...
You're absolutely not a horrible person for this! I started working from home part time while still technically on maternity leave with DS. I love DS more than anything, but I also know I'm a better mom when I focus on things that make me happy as well (and work can certainly be one of those things).

I saw such a huge meltdown in IKEA today (with the shrillest scream I have ever heard) and I'm pretty sure my ovaries finished completely shriveling up! And I was thinking "holy heck! what have I got myself into?!"
