Yesterday I Googled "can you masturbate while on pelvic rest". Not because I am on pelvic rest but because I was curious as to what the ladies on pelvic rest could and could not do... I've been so horny lately I can't imagine not being able to play
Also, I have come to the realization that a lot of times when I am uncomfortable and blaming the baby... I really just need to go poop and then I'll feel better.
Somebody's gross soaking oatmeal bowl has been sitting on the office kitchen counter since Tuedsay...and I'm going to throw it out. I don't care if it's a good bowl or not, that's nasty.

Ugh I hate when people do this at work! I've thrown away items left in the sink as well as in the fridge. If it's moldy and no one claims the item, I'm chucking it. Sorrynotsorry.
I plan on taking baby to the family Thanksgiving get-together.
I laugh to myself when FTMs think their baby will be perfectly dressed at all times.
I'm bitter that a friend's dad had the same type of heartattack (widow-maker) yesterday that my dad had, but lived. I'm very glad their dad is okay (as okay as you can be after that), but it doesn't seem fair that my dad wasn't as lucky. They should have both been okay!

I've been on pelvic rest since since 9dpo. My doctor said ZERO stimulation. Not allowed to put anything into anything down there... No stimulation in any way and definitely no orgasm. That theory is that the contractions of the uterus that come with an Orgasm can cause issues for us on restriction ... And inserting anything stimulates the cervix. I was also told not to have any sort of nipple stimulation. Doc told hubby.... "Pelvic rest will be like being in a museum for 9 months .... You can look but don't touch." Lol.

MrsG1019 And so how are you dealing with it? I know you want what's best for your baby but do you miss the sex/ orgasm?
@wildflower75 TBH... No.. Not at all. With my first pregnancy I was scared to death to have sex and was convinced if I do I would loose the baby... Got to 10 weeks (FTM worries) and started chilling out a bit and at 10w2d I gave in and we tried it. 10w3d I miscarried. I swear that has f'd my mind up hardcore ... Cuz I now think sex=MC. I was on pelvic rest for my second, third and fourth pregnancy losses ... So obviously sex wasn't the issue (more than likely). We've been at this for 7 years so having a baby become a job. I was determined to make it happen and luckily DH is on board. I can't even try to make a move on him cuz I'll get scolded and reminded that the doc said no and that it's not worth taking the chance. It would be harder if he wasn't on board but poor guy is used to it lol. He used to travel a ton for work (6-12 months at a time) so we've had those long stretches of abstinence too which I think prepared us for this.
MrsG1019 That's good to hear and I'm sorry about your losses and so excited for your little one arriving in Nov!!
Thank You!! We are thrilled! At this point doctor is just hoping I make it to 34 weeks so we are more on track for a September or October baby... But I'll take it as long as he's healthy! He'll he can come in December if he wants to!
In public I love to people watch, but these days I mostly just belly watch. I'm not sure how to feel when I get a little bump envy ... to notice it's on a dude :-/
With all the harping on etiquette I've done this week and how gift grabby asking for money is, I confess: We did the money dance at our wedding. It was at the request of DH's family (it is apparently a cultural thing to them?) and no amount of begging could get me out of it. And you know what, it was kind of fun. Some of my favorite pics of the reception are from the money dance.

I bought cookies that I had no intention of sharing so I hid them in the pantry. Well, someone (I think the friend that is helping us remodel the house) found them and they're almost gone! I'm so sad so I took them and hid them in the bedroom. Now I feel guilty because he really has been such a huge help and probably just wanted some damn cookies. I'm a terrible, cookie-hoading person
I didn't yell, but was borderline with N this morning over trying to get a bandaid on. She cried. I feel like the fucking shittiest mom ever. I seriously hate myself right now.

DH eats ALL THE THINGS in the house. I have to bury them in the pantry behind stuff the he doesn't like. He's worse than SS(11yo) stealing treats. Last night I stopped in the store, grabbed a gallon of milk and came home looking forward to the Reese's Oreos I bought last week....the whole package was gone. So disappointing. I'm going to start hiding things in the bedroom.
I was initially butt hurt that more people didn't like or comment on my AW shower incite post but I'm ok now.
Seriously? That should have gone in the everything thread. I'm not trying to be mean, but we've got ladies losing loved ones and dealing with medical complications of their unborn child, medical issues with themselves, this was not something you should have been butt hurt over, at all.

::hugs:: it happens. Don't best yourself up. If you were a shitty mom you wouldn't feel bad right now.
Thank you you made me ugly cry (in a good way though).
I'm so sorry about your mom @Becks517 my mom is fighting triple negative breast cancer currently and it's such a roller coaster. I get angry that she didn't just get regular breast cancer, nope, she had to get the really shitty kind that's really aggressive and only 5-10% of people get. I think about cancer and breast cancer so much, it never stops.

If you're referring to the huge thread at the top of the board as the everything thread, I'm about 2k comments behind and can't keep up with that.
I saw others AW invites or talk about their showers, so I thought I would share my invites that came in because it seemed to be the topic of that day.
I've always been supportive of others' issues going on, both good and bad, and don't see how showing off my invites on a day where shower talk was at an all-time high takes away from that?
And now I'm butt hurt hat I thought I was a pretty consistent regular on this board and so many love titted your comment above. I think I'm being overly sensitive but maybe I need a bump break for awhile.

@JamieK1882 I really am not trying to be mean to you, at all. You are a regular on this board but I also think you need to calm down about the shower, I don't think that you realize how you are coming off about it. I think it's fine that you posted it, honestly, but I don't think you should take offense that you didn't get as many love tits/comments that you thought you should have, like I said, there's a lot going on around here that's really big life stuff and I don't think anyone was trying to purposely offend you by not commenting or love titting it.
I have specifically asked my friends not to post pictures of me on FB and a friend did the other day and tagged DH & I in the album. I've now had people come out of the wood work asking if I'm pregnant. I broke down in tears over it this morning. Needless to say, I've decided I am a completely unreasonable, hormonal pregnant bitch right now and I'm not sure why it upsets me so much (aside from the fact that I'm just hyper-sensitive to pregnancy related topics being on FB due to my previous 5 losses).
I'm Sorry about your losses and I would be livid if a friend did that. It's no ones place to announce/show off your pregnancy but your own.. And even more rude that it was done after they had specific instruction not to.

I'm not sure if I love titted your invite (sometimes I think I did and they don't come through) but I totally said it was cute. I didn't have a problem with you posting it (I never check the random thread -- too long and overwhelming). I think the comment was directed more because your FFFC was that you were hurt initially that not more people acknowledged it.
Side note: I'm all for a daily random thread instead of posting all randoms in one thread. It would be less overwhelming to read and follow along with.

I'm (still) really annoyed that my parents canceled our shower and uninvited 40 guests ... All for the sake of not having to deal with the wrath of my sister by telling her not to come.
Ha thanks everyone. I seriously must just be having a very sensitive day. I'm in a state board meeting where I hold an office and am finding myself overly sensitive here too for no reason. Thanks for not flaming me too hard. :-*
I am going to avoid a quote tree here. @JamieK1882 I did love tit your shower invites, and yes they are cute. I think many people get tired of individual AW posts. Does this mean you shouldn't post about your shower guest list, menu, or invites? No, post away if it makes you happy, but don't get offended when people don't love tit. Some people get tired of hearing about it.
ETA: I just saw your previous post and I'm glad you see that as being sensitive.
My FFFC is that I can't stop giving myself breast exams. My doctor just gave me one a week and a half ago but I'm so paranoid. I'm praying my mom doesn't have the breast cancer gene and maybe that will calm me down a little bit, we don't find out for like 3 more weeks.
I'm mad I never got a mammogram and now I can't get one until after I have the baby. I honestly didn't think she had the gene, I didn't even think about it so I didn't worry so much about it. Now I can't stop thinking about it and touching my boobs to the point where they hurt.
Ha thanks everyone. I seriously must just be having a very sensitive day. I'm in a state board meeting where I hold an office and am finding myself overly sensitive here too for no reason. Thanks for not flaming me too hard. :-*
I'm just impressed that you're honest about your current feelings today @JamieK1882

I ate salt right after the OB told me not to. I had a momentarily absentminded moment and immediately felt bad. I kinda thought about puking it up. But I'll just adjust my diet and remember from now on. Still feeling bad, even though that salt & pepper whole tomato with ranch was delicious.
I totally have swelling going on ( due to not drinking enough water & being lazy yesterday). Today I wake up craving a soda, so I had one, along with a BLT. Wtf lil baby, why you want soda so bad this week??? I haven't had many sodas at all since my bfp, so the habit is kicked. So much for helping my swelling out

It's all good . I think we've all been there before. I honestly missed your AW so I just went back. It really is a cute invite. I love that you're keeping your shower with the theme of your nursery.

---end quote-- I'm sorry for your losses @NinerGirl52 and @MrsG1019 . NineGirl I completely understand the FB thing. Also because of stranger danger, but more due to my loss history I will not be sharing many baby pics online. If they want to see my kiddo, they should know me well enough to text for a pic or set up a date.
I will say that I did post my pg announcement along with my story at 15wks and it was somewhat liberating. I'm happy knowing I'm "out" if any of my friends are struggling they are welcome to come to me. So far none have.

I'm on ipad so apologize in advance for lack of paragraphs. I'm going to get today off on a better start...
@abbyful -I plan on taking LO to Thanksgiving as well (assuming all is ok).
@AmandaRae529 -my lunch on the turnpike yesterday was an Auntie Ann's pretzel and gummy sharks and that was only because the Burger King line was too long. Wendy's is totally acceptable.
@absolutelymaybe -we did a dollar dance too. Big tradition here and my favorite part was dancing with my mom and gram at the end when they put a babushka on me because I was now an "old married lady." My dad was also super into trying to keep DH out of the circle to get me.
@maelara-you are a wonderful mommy!
@becks517-I'm sorry about your mom. Hugs
@kristy774-hugs to you and your mom too. My brother had an extremely rare cancer at 25 years of age, so I get the unfairness of it all.
@ninergirl52-that stinks. I would be mad that your friend didn't respect your wishes
Re: !!! FFFC !!!
Also, I have come to the realization that a lot of times when I am uncomfortable and blaming the baby... I really just need to go poop and then I'll feel better.
This comes at a huge expense, my ass - literally. I have agreed to have buttsecks in order for this to happen.
Last time I used my ass in bargaining I got a complete bathroom remodel.
Buttsecks for bathroom remodel =$1000-1500.
Buttsecks for naming our baby my way = PRICELESS.
I'm screwed on using this as a bargaining agent for the rest of my life now LOL.

How is it still there?? I'd have demolished it by now.
I also think Wendy's might be an acceptable lunch today. Did someone say pretzel roll?
