FFFC!

Ready...... GO!!!

MrsG1019 · August 2014

I just found out that the baby shower (aka one of their typical giant parties that they're just calling a baby shower) that my parents had planned for us tomorrow and then quickly turned around and "canceled" (after a giant shit show of family drama) was never canceled.. So they're still having a baby shower "to celebrate THEIR grandson". I'm annoyed that the guests have no clue that we won't be there tomorrow (we live 550 miles away from where the party was gonna be & DH didn't get the time off work since it was canceled)... So guests are still coming .. Some with gifts & I wanna crawl in a hole cuz that's super embarrassing.. But my parents think nothing of it & apparently I'm the crazy one for not wanting the gifts, since "that's why people have baby showers (I told them I can't accept anyone's gifts cuz that's just rude) I asked them to just please be honest with the guests and tell them ahead of time it's just a normal BBQ, and no longer a baby shower. . Nope .. Didn't happen. Just wait till y'all hear about the family drama that's gonna start up once I refuse the gifts they collect tomorrow.. DH & I are totally gonna get flamed by them. This apple fell realllllyyyyyy far from the tree you guys. I swear.

@MrsG1019 - wow! That's not cool! How can they have a baby shower without the guest of honor...sorry you're having to deal with this.

Dana633 · August 2014

I ate cookie dough right out the package last night! NO BAKING, yep raw cookie dough!

The good thing...I didn't eat it all!

I confess that I am about ready to break out some serious hoodoo shit to sell my house. The cosmos have not aligned for this one! :!!

Cuz it's THEIR grandchild, who is a baby. That's the explanation I was given anyways.. They were convinced that was a legit reason.. I know my mom is gona have some dramatic explanation(aka lie) for why DH & I aren't there. I hope that someone texts or calls me to say how sad they are we aren't there... I will have no problem throwing out the truth card.

Yesssss - this! I never realized that I even liked sleeping on my back until this pregnancy!

I tried this yesterday on the seat of a picnic table... damn near got stuck. Me attempting to get up was not a pretty sight! My legs straddled the bench & I couldn't bend because my SI locked up & I was laughing hysterically because, well, you know, total turtle moment.
Ah, good times.

I rolled over this morning and laid on my back for a minute to wake up. It felt like I couldn't breath

sad, sad day! I'm usually a stomach sleeper and I can't do that either

( last time it took months after my pregnancy to be able to sleep on my stomach again. Stupid stretched out muscles!

Noooo!!! I totally thought I'd be able to immediately go back to sleeping on my stomach! I'm sad now

You might! My back muscles were too lose (or sore or whatever, something was up and i blamed the hormones!) and it was quiet painful for me to sleep on my stomach afterwards.

dr_pr · August 2014

I'm off work for the next 3 weeks (in between semesters), but DD is still going to daycare 5 days a week. I don't feel the least bit guilty.

mamatohne · August 2014

I woke up to my power being out, it's suppose to be 105 today.
Fffc I'm only super pissed because I didn't want to do anything (including showering) today. Now I will have to take my son somewhere there is ac.

MmmPopcorn · August 2014

I have two very unrelated FFFCs.

Firstly: We ate hot dogs earlier this week, and I could not figure out for the life of me how to open a split-top hot dog bun. I was like, "Honey! I need a knife! These buns haven't been sliced!" I am a simpleton. #-o

Secondly: I had 5 (!) orgasms just lying in bed half-asleep yesterday morning. I kept dozing off and having naughty dreams and waking up to another O. Yesterday also happened to be my wedding anniversary, so when H got all amorous last night, I was like, "Well, at least the pressure's off for you! Guess what happened to me this morning!"

mamatohne · August 2014

@MmmPopcorn‌ you are so lucky. I have to work for that shit.

I don't know your feelings on this, but when we were selling our house, I bought a St. Joseph's statue at a Christian store ( it was like $5-10). Then you bury it in the backyard, faced down, facing away from the house. Once you sell your house you're supposed to unbury Joseph and giving him a place of honor on the new house. I also prayed to St. Joseph for a fast, profitable, and smooth sale. We sold our house in a week and a half

I drank a Mountain Dew with breakfast. Coffee pot broke.

I rarely drink pop much less mountain dew. It was delicious.

It's noon, and I'm still in bed. I would lie and say this is a rarity but it's turned into an almost everyday thing... The way I see it, soon will come a time that bed til noon will seem like a joke, so I'm enjoying it while I can.

Yes honey!! Enjoy it now!! Enjoy it all now!! I relish nap time with my 17 mos old!
And daydream about the lazy Saturdays I used to have just lying on the couch doing nothing and not having a care in the world! But then she smiles or says something hilarious and I don't think about it anymore...but damn am I tired!!

MindyAndRyan · August 2014

I just drank 16 oz of rich chocolate Ovaltine milk out of a glass measuring cup because I was too lazy to wash a glass.

SugarSnap83 · August 2014

My belly button is starting to disgust me. It has not popped out, but it is spread all the way out. Then I have a spread out belly piercing on top and an ugly scar (from my gallbladder surgery) below. It's just gross...

MindyAndRyan · August 2014

Speaking of belly buttons...

I confess that I don't like the shape of my bump, which is why I haven't taken a HDBD pic in 4 weeks. My belly button is still an innie (though shallow, it is still there), and my bump is this weird shape with a totally flat front. It looks like I hit a wall or something. I have total bump envy for all the beautiful round bumps.

I love my little dude in there, but not loving my bump.

staugustinewedding · August 2014

Last night after dinner I went back for seconds an hour later....I had leftover mac and cheese, a coffee mug full of chocolate ice cream and a peach...and still woke up hungry.

ejpetey · August 2014

I got my short haired cat shaved because I was sick of cleaning up cat hair from all over everything. She didn't seem to mind and I think she actually likes it, despite how she looks in this pic. She just has resting bitch face like her mom.

Now I must have a mountain dew. I swear, I only want things other people have.

This is *exactly* how my cravings work. Someone mentioned a slushie being their go to "make baby move" drink. Now all I've wanted for a week is a blue slushie from my high school cafeteria.

---------------------- I didn't realize it either! When I do wake up on my back now though it's usually pretty painful.

Yes to all of this! I fall asleep easier on my back but when I wake up there are consequences. *ouch*

scarlet3egonias · August 2014

I've cried twice in less than 12 hours because a local restaurant has been out of banana pudding both times (last night and again this morning) that I went in for some. What does a woman have to do to get a damn banana pudding around here?

Dana633 · August 2014

I just had a total melt down at my desk (thank God no one walked up) because I ordered the wall panels for the nursery and was finally going to have my walls up and they delivered the wrong damn thing! I still don't have a nursery

Update on the Mountain Dew:
So I just mentioned to my coworker that I was going to go grab a Mountain Dew before our department luncheon. She proceeded to tell me that her friend had her baby 2 months early & I should really watch my caffeine intake. This is the same coworker that calls me "mommy" on a regular basis.

WTAF???? What is wrong with people??? Whyyy would she say that to you? UGH....

silverwings72 · August 2014

I have been craving Mcdonalds french fries for days. I'm going to buy some right now (10:30 in the morning here in Cali) and I will not beat myself up for it.

Apparently nasty freaking McDonald's is my new craving. I have ate it twice this week. My DD had never ate it but I had to have it for lunch so I fed her apple slices and French fries so I could satisfy my craving. I am ashamed. I normally HATE McDonald's!

lisaren · August 2014

Girls drink a Mountain Dew!!! Enjoy!

People honestly just don't know when to STFU. While I was pregnant with DD, somebody I worked with told me that eating vinegar would make me have a second miscarriage.

I don't know what I would have done to that person... seriously I might have gotten fired... wow

This. I totally got side-eyed at church on Sunday for having a coffee. Tell your manager to shut up lol. (Except not really haha. Don't get fired) ;-)

I literally have accomplished nothing at work today... too much time spent catching up on these crazy threads!

That would seriously piss me off.

A confession brought on by a comment in another thread: I once convinced my friend's older sister that her baby would be born with a stutter because she used a vibrator while pregnant.

EVIL!!!
LOL!!

I felt horrible because I showed up at my birthing class drinking a Mountain Dew and eating a tuna sandwich from Panera Bread. I came straight after work on a Friday and there was NO time to eat in between. Had I thought that I was going to be eating at a table in front of 11 other pregnant women, I'd have had DH get me something else. Esp since tuna can be stinky

jaminjeff · August 2014

I miss pop. All this talk of Mountain Dew has me drooling. GD can suck it.

kimberly_ann81 · August 2014

Being pregnant with this girl sucks compared to my pregnancies with the boys. More morning sickness, hot flashes, zits all the time, and way more emotional then normal. Must be the extra estrogen she's producing.

absolutelymaybe · August 2014

Sorry I'm late to the game today. Sis and mom came to visit and, aside from my mom giving me a lecture about wanting to vaccinate my babies (I had no idea she was so crunchy), was so much fun.

FFFC # 1: A girl I work with found out she's pregnant a month or so ago. She was skinny (like I used to be) and I've totally noticed her ass and thighs getting bigger. I confess: it kind of makes me smile (that I'm not the only one).

FFFC #2: (Inspired by maternity photo thread) I'm so jealous of people who have a "photographer friend" who is going to do pics for them cheap/free. I AM that friend to my friends -- don't get me wrong, I love doing it -- but I wish someone would be there to take pictures for me for a change. (On that note, one of my concerns about a c-section is that it's going to make me less mobile and make it harder to get newborn photos. I know, that sound silly. Taking pictures is probably going to be the last thing on my mind. )

FFFC #2: I left an empty pizza box in the work refrigerator long enough to where someone else threw it out (about a week). I kept trying to remember to track down the janitor to throw it away since our garbage cans are too small, but forgot. Ooops!

Now to go back and read all the FFFCs....
