Here's mine. I have and will continue to pull the "I'm pregnant" card with DH when there's something I really don't want to do. Example: scrubbing the shower. It causes me RLP andthe bathroom isn't very well vented. So DH will end up doing it. Sounds lazy, I know. But I'm going to cherish it while I can. Because once baby is here and I'm home alone all day with the baby, I cant use it anymore. Sorry DH.
I am terrible with names on TB it takes me forever to remember who's siggie goes with who's name. So I have all these random questions floating around but I can't remember who they go with.
For example, did the chick with the red boobs every figure out what it was? Did the lady on vacation go to the clinic and get her rhogram shot?

Nope, I use the "I have a newborn excuse" And he still walks the dogs in the morning even though we have a toddler
I was having some pretty bad insomnia during first tri. It helped to sleep alone, because I had so much concern my tossing and turning would wake up my husband which in turn would keep me awake, so I started sleeping in the spare bedroom, for about a week and a half. Well then one afternoon, probably about 2 weeks ago, we had sex and left a gross "wet spot" on my side of the bed...
Fast forward to today, and we STILL haven't washed the sheets and I refuse to sleep on a gross dried up wet spot, sooooo I'm still sleeping in the spare bedroom. (In my defense, I was out of town for 7 out of the last 14 nights).
I plan to wash those today so I can start sleeping with my husband again... (promise!)

Haha! Well.. maybe once or twice I will..
I will say this-Don't stress over the chores for the first couple of months. That whole nap when the baby naps probably won't happen, all I could do was stare at my baby and marvel over them but seriously if you wanna sleep then sleep, but also do something for you-read a magazine, take a bath something that isn't chores the dishes and laundry will always be there. Besides after giving birth just put your feet up and enjoy that sweet little newborn. Be a princess!!
DD watches 2 Elmo's world dvds everyday just so I can bump, it's how I start my day and she doesn't mind. She sits in my lap and we snuggle while she watches Elmo and I get to play on TB
This is all I got today
DD is watching Bubble Gumpies as we speak so I can have a little time to bump and just do whatever on the computer.
My parents hate each other and both told me they won't come to my gender reveal party if the other is going to be there. So I told each that I wasn't inviting the other but I really am.

Over the last month, I've very, very, very seriously considered turning in my bar license. I don't know if I want to practice anymore.
I will be using maternity leave time to find another job.
I always say that I hate being an attorney, but if I have to do it (and I feel like I do because no one else will pay me enough to be able to pay my loans along with all my other bills), then I like the job I have. I like my job but hate my career. Hence the amount of procrastination time I spend on here.
I hope you can find something more satisfying to you. Also, I'm jealous that you're going to do something else.
DS and this currently cooking bean were conceived on nights DH and I were smoking pot. We're in MN, where it's illegal, so we don't keep it in the house, but in both instances, DH had come home from a hunting/fishing trip with a little extra from one of the guys, so we smoked, had a big bowl of ice cream, great sex, and BAM - a BFP (a couple weeks later). Maybe this is what they should be handing out at fertility clinics. I can tell you the side effects of briefly increased appetite and a great night's sleep are a whole lot better than the hot flashes, insomnia, and crazy mood swings I dealt with on clomid.
Me: unexplained infertility - annovulatory
DH: testicular cancer survivor!!
TTC since June 2009
BFP May 11, 2012
EDD January 24, 2013
June 1, 2012 - first u/s, heartbeat 124 BPM!!
June 22, 2012 - heard the heartbeat 9w1d 181 BPM!!
24 hours of labor, 4 1/2 hours of pushing, and IT'S A BOY!
Welcome to the world my miracle, we prayed and prayed for you, and we can't believe you're here!
@Jennifer18131 definitely keep your eyes open for government work. I am an attorney for a federal agency. There is a much better work life balance.
My confession is along the lines of others. DH has been doing pretty much everything. I feed DD and play with her after work but he makes dinner, cleans up after, puts DD to bed and works out every day. I really should help more, and I could help more, but I'm so tired and lazy lately.
NOOOOO! STOP! I will flame anyone who does this and hide the fire extinguisher. It puts everyone else on the road in danger and I am not cool with that.
H and I only sleep in the same bed if we are traveling or have visitors at our house. We both sleep better and prefer it, although I know a lot of people think that it is weird.
I just realized that I use eye drops everyday. Apparently, you are not suppose to take them while pregnant. Somehow since I have used them everyday for 10 years I never thought about it until I googled it this morning. I will be talking to my ob about it on Monday. Hopefully it didn't cause any harm.
If I hear someone dies in a car accident because they were texting I don't feel bad, at all. It's their own fucking fault. I just hope they didn't kill/injure anyone else in the accident. Texting while you're driving is such a reckless, selfish, stupid thing to do.
Me too, but in a "holy crap I freakin dodged a bullet with that one" way.
I will never deserve my DH.
Same, @TicketTuesday. I almost married my ex, and now I look back and am so horrified at the things I was willing to accept/overlook. Now if only I could stop having pregnancy-induced dreams about him -__-

When we had the Bump Hump (bump n' bump? Hump a bumpie?) I put off participating because I was afraid no one would reply to mine. When I worked up the nerve to participate, no one replied. I was self conscious...like, in real life...for days afterwards.

I watched the show "True Tori" on Tuesday night and cried like a baby when she talked about how she was struggling alone with her kids and how sad she was that her husband cheated on her. I blame pregnancy hormones, because even as I was crying, I was wondering where all her help was. Then on Wednesday, I Googled the show, found out that she has three nannies and an assistant and am now convinced that she's faking it all to boost ratings. I feel like a fool.

My 19yo college drop out brother is working as a "helper" for a construction contractor making more money than I am AND getting benefits. Definitely doesn't help.
I love the type of law that I practice, but office issues have me dreading coming into work almost every day. If I could go somewhere else with a better mentor relationship, better pay and/or benefits, I think I would be okay.

The fuck is a bump and hump? Sounds dirty.
I think it was called a Bump Hump? If I made that up I'm going to feel really dumb. It was a big thread where you say something nice about the person that replied before you, or something? I'd never seen it before.

Oh, I definitely dodged a bullet....that's for sure. We were together for 5+ years and if we had ended up getting married, even though we were incredible when together, it would have been the most untrustworthy marriage.
I got new eyeliner at the store the other day. Got through the check out line, out to my car (towards the end of a row), groceries loaded, then realized the eyeliner was still at the bottom of the cart. I'm pregnant and lazy and I didn't go back in to pay for it.
Last night I had 2 packs of Tums while checking out at Target placed in the child seat by my purse and forgot about them until we got out to the car. I didn't go back in either...

-----------Dorothy:A woman here died this week in a car accident from posting on Facebook while driving. My very first reaction was to call her a dumbass. I know that may be harsh, and I do feel bad that she died/for her family, but still. It's just such a fucking stupid, preventable way to die. Those who kills others doing it? I have no words. This is why I believe cell phone usage should be banned in cars, period. If you need to use the phone for any reason, you can pull over somewhere.
---------- mel:
Exactly. (That was actually the story I was thinking of just now). Texting and driving is knowingly taking a huge, completely unnecessary risk.... for yourself and EVERY other person on the road.
NOTHING you have to say is that goddamn important!!! Fuck!
I read through all the healthy responses in the "how much are you eating" thread very sheepishly because although my nausea is mostly abated, I still eat Cocoa Pebbles for breakfast every morning. And it's so good and sugary.
Froot Loops, Apple Jacks, or Hardees Bacon, Egg, and Cheese biscuit for the win! Don't feel bad.
5 cycles of "TTC" - 3 intentional, 2 not so intentional. 5 BFPs. My rainbow arrived 10/15/14. TFMC 08.02.13 at 19+ weeks. Everyday I grieve for my little Olive.

I will bump hump you ADH0906! I find myself agreeing with most of your posts. And I like seeing that you love titted me!
I forgot to take my prenatal yesterday (all day) and then this morning. Tame, I know, but this is just the warmup.
There is no food in the house, and I'm too lazy to go grocery shopping, so I had Sonic for dinner last night and instant mashed potatoes for dinner the night before last.
I frequently consider high fiving one of my bosses (the arrogant a-hole one)...in the face...with a snow shovel.

Not alone, this current baby was conceived while both DH and I were high as a fucking kite. For the record it is illegal where we live too and we only do it if my parents have our kids for the night. And yes the sex is fucking great
Count me in on this "was high when we conceived" party. We smoked a fair amount before our BFP, too (obviously we've stopped since then).

Same. Got mixed up in some overlap and no one replied. It stung a little...
Probably at least once a day, I check my profile to see how many love tits I have. I care about this way more than I should.
Ditto..
I don't really pay attention to how many I have. If I see that a comment got a bunch, then sweet! Otherwise I don't keep track. I'll make sure to love tit more now that I know how much it means to some of you
