Apologies if I'm stepping on anyone's toes, but it's already 10am ET so I thought I'd start the thread!

    I guess I'll start with 2 board related topics.

    1.  I roll my eyes at posts about lack of weight gain when the poster's ob isn't worried about it. Especially if the person asks for suggestions re: weight gain.  You don't know how to gain weight?  Really?


    ^^^That makes me laugh!  I could share them a few pounds if it was possible!
    Amen sister. I've gained an average of a pound a week so far this pregnancy. I was delighted when I went to my check up yesterday and found out that I had only gained 1.5lbs in 4 weeks.

  • I'm not one of those grammar snobs, but anyone else notice the typo in the title?

    FTM - BFP: 1/23/14 - EDD: 10/5/14 - DD Born 9/13/14

  • Also, mine is stupid but has been stuck in my head the last few days.  I have been thinking of what I would do if my husband were to cheat on me during or after this pregnancy.

    Not that I think that would actually happen but now that it isn't as easy to deal with I guess I need to have a "back-up" plan in the back of my mind.  This is totally psycho but that is where my mind has been wondering.

    To each their own but I will say that my toe nails are painted today ;)


    This makes me happy? Is it a fun color? I think I want a polish change!

    Yep. I also get annoyed by the "I don't feel my baby kick posts". I think it only bothers me because it seems to get brought up like 2-3x week.
    I haven't posted about it because there's not much you guys can do about it.. but I confess... I AM concerned I've barely felt my baby move!
    :(

    2.  I also don't understand why people post pictures of food porn at the end of a post "for your time" or as a thank you for reading.  Thanks for making me hungry?

    HILARIOUS!!

    The bitchy part of me also wonders if some of these posters create the thread just to brag about how little weight they have gained.
    @ss265

    I agree - I actually considered making that 1a. ;)

    @lrobi12- My pedicure is scheduled for tonight...this color sounds fabulous! Is it an OPI brand?

    I had bad insomnia last night so I was reading over some threads...and there was one particular poster who in two different discussions called us (the group) rude. I'm dying to call it out so I can watch her get flamed.

    @pnwlover12

    I know this was discussed yesterday in UO, but your post compels me to say it again.  I'm shocked by the lack of flames on this board, especially when they are warranted.  I end up biting my tongue/muting my bitchiness in many instances because, for the most part, this board seems to fall more on the opposite side of the spectrum and I get concerned that I'll end up being flamed.  


    Yes! Me too. I try not to be too snarky but in some cases, it is warranted damn it!

  • Confession... I am REALLY upset that my MIL took my 1 year old daughter to a 3D movie they were showing at the zoo! Luckily my daughter got scared by the surround sound and so they left pretty swiftly BUT...
    MIL takes care of her everyday and she knows about our NO SCREEN TIME rule! If you were taking care of a child and her parents told you no TV... wouldn't you have the understanding that this meant no movies as well? Especially a 3D movie?
    Am I over reacting? Well if I am the good news is I didn't say anything to my MIL. I waited until the next day and asked DH to talk to her about it.... UGH!!!

    Some may flame me for my reaction to this, but whatevs. Someone stole my fucking bag of string cheese from the fridge at work. I had like 4-5 sticks in there and I was out of the office yesterday. I ate some on Wednesday, so the culprit did it yesterday. Call me immature, but my response was hanging this on the fridge:
    I need to start this policy in my office! Food doesn't get stolen here, it gets thrown away. My coworkers will decide that something smells in the kitchen so they'll take all of the food in the fridge, put it in the trash and then leave the trash bag sitting out in the kitchen because they don't feel like taking it out. So now the thing that supposedly smelled in the fridge is sitting out where it can stink up the whole office, WTF?? Also, my desk is practically in the kitchen so I'm the one who gets to smell it or take it out, BS!

    On a lighter note (because stolen food is a touchy subject lol) my rather tame fffcs:

    After resisting all week I stopped for donuts this morning. I justified by telling myself I could confess it here :)

    Also decided it was casual Friday. My office does not have casual days but if it becomes an issue I will totally play the pregnancy card and say that nothing fits me and that I'm just so miserable about it!

  • 1. I read the June14 birth announcements yesterday and was equally excited and terrified as to what's to come in Oct. But I can't stop reading them! lol

    2. For the life of me I can't figure out what tl:dr stands for. I get what it's for I just can't figure out what the acronym stands for.

  • @youngin12:  It is an Essie color.  I picked up from Target this spring.
  • I had bad insomnia last night so I was reading over some threads...and there was one particular poster who in two different discussions called us (the group) rude. I'm dying to call it out so I can watch her get flamed.
    Ooh,  in this case I have no clue who it is since the last couple of weeks have been super busy at work.  Any hints or is that against the rules?
