Am I in the twilight zone??

My cousin (male) just txt me asking if I had popped yet. Told him nope not yet, she isn't due till the 13th. He replied that I will go into labor tomorrow, I said pretty please, and his reply was
"Just remember who told u and think how I told u and just keep thinking about it"

I don't get it! my brain is not wired for riddles!!!

That is really creepy. I'm reading that as you thinking about him while you are in labor and delivering your kid. That last thing I want to do while in labor, is think that hard about ANY of my relatives.

On the other hand, it would be nice for you if he's right. I'll have to make sure my phone is charged and by my bed tonight.

Edited for confusing language.
Ok yep I can see how you can read it as creepy... I totally took it as in "think of me cause I told you so" haha. Guess you have to know the person, I'm pretty close to my cousin, so don't think he means anything creepy... At least I hope not! And I would be very surprised if anything happens tomorrow! Still no sign of anything at all, and we do have a stubborn baby!

That makes it much less creepy. Glad you are close to your cousin. I have a cousin that I haven't seen in years, coming to visit in June. So excited!

Ugh, confession. I am feeling sad about leaving my dogs tomorrow and then rocking their world when we bring home LO. I mean of course it is totally worth it but I still feel a little sad about it.

I totally understand! It's not like you can explain what's happening to them and it is such a big change. But I bet they will be happy to have one more person to love!

I was so worried about this when we had DS, especially since our dog didn't have any experience with babies. When we got home, DH was snuggling DS on the couch and our dog jumped up on the couch, gave DS a kiss on the arm and another on the cheek. It was like "You're finally here! I've been waiting forever to meet you!"

My dog was all, "Why is this creepy hairless puppy crying? Peace out, this is your problem." And we pretty much rarely saw much of her for the first few weeks.

I fully expect my cat to be like this

That's how our cat acts but our dog is really sweet with her.

if one more person asks "is anyone going through the same thing" in another thread I'm going to loose my shit! ~X(

I bought DH peanut m&ms for work and ate a bunch of them before picking him up.

He went to take a couple and dummies half of them on the muddy ground.

Fail

Losing your shit is a sign of labor.

Also ate an entire chocolate bunny last night. However it was the one I bought for DS when I was in a "better get the Easter basket ready now in case baby comes and we forget". I also ate his skittles.

Ah, meals with toddlers: when whatever is in your hand suddenly becomes more delicious than anything else.

chichi589 · April 2014

Sometimes I trade plates with my
DD before she knows which is mine which is hers and then when she wants my plate we switch she thinks she's winning and I know I'm winning.

Stm: when you had BH did LO squirm through them? Im getting weird feeling - thinking must be BH and everytime it happens LO starts squirming! Or maybe LO squirming causes the weird feeling!

I hate this, I'm starting to wonder at every twinge and weird feeling! Likee this am I was almost sick, had a very loose BM and now I feel weird and am having weird feelings in my abdomen!!

Where is my magic 8 ball!

Edit:spelling! Typing is too hard!!!

DH had our dog boarded last night and we slept in then spent all day in our pj's watching True Detective, pigging out and trading massages. He said it was our last chance to have a lazy day all to ourselves, so we definitely took advantage!

Only 25/30 years before we live alone together and can do this again. Yay!

We could totally swing with you guys.. That's our kinda party
<:-P

Sometimes it feels like my guy is protesting BHs. His movements can also cause BHs, but most of the time he is still through them.

Realized that I neglected to take my Claritin today... No wonder my face has been oozing more than usual.

RocksInTheWater · April 2014

Has anyone watched Kid Snippets on YouTube? They are pretty funny and a good way to waste time.

We ordered ours way late because we couldn't decide if we really wanted one or should just use the wooden rocker that was given to us. Even though it won't come for another month, I am so glad we are getting a nice one. Yours looks so comfy!

eireyes · April 2014

Oh my god, the dog keeps farting, and it smells like he's taking a shit next to my head every time. DH has let him out at least three times and he just won't poop. I think the dog could seriously kill someone with his rear right now!

SoulTermination · April 2014

I just want to fill my tub with hydrocortisone and lounge in it. So. Fucking. Itchy. @-)

deidremaria · April 2014

OMG I've had no access to anything for the past 30 something hours. I missed you girls. Happy birthday to whomever I missed and somebody please tell me how many outside babies we've gotten between yesterday and now!

So many contractions today. I was sure we would end up with something timeable and be in L&D by now, but it has been a good day, I got a ton of stuff done (I may have been intentionally trying to overdo it with the walks and being on my feet and encouraging more contractions), and thoroughly enjoyed my husband's company in spite of being so uncomfortable. I hope all of you have had such lovely days and are getting to the point where being super uncomfy makes you more excited than annoyed, too! Let's do this thing, April kids.

I can't promise I will have this attitude tomorrow, so I am riding out the optimism while it lasts.

@avidkeo Rhys Darby is doing an AMA on reddit. I cant remember if it was you or someone else who said they really liked him. His new show comes out tomorrow here in the states so he's promoting it. Edit cause my ipad auto corrected weird words

Oh very cool! Love him! Still remember him as a teenager WAAYYYYY back in the day!

I saw the first ep of the new series yesterday... not sure if you guys will like it, its very kiwi! Not even sure what I think about it yet! I'll be hanging out for what you think! Random question - do you know what Short Poppies is referencing? Only cause I think its a kiwism, maybe Aussy and british as well but don't think I've ever heard an American use the term.

avidkeo · April 2014

embear22 said:

@avidkeo I am really hoping I like it! My whole fam are Brits so I'm used to the humor. I have not heard the short poppies term before though. I will look it up. I'm not hip and don't understand the kids lingo anymore lol

ha yeah be prepared for tounge to be firmly in cheek!

Short Poppies is a play on the term "Tall Poppies" which means that anyone who dares to be different, sticks their head above the rest is likely to have said head cut off... Something we definitely suffer from here - Tall Poppy syndrome. Either completely celebrated and put on a pedastool (Peter Jackson is a good example) or cut down to size (anyone else!)

I don't care when this kid comes anymore. I give up.
