@boxerrmama85 I'm with you. I've been firmly team green throughout, I've just always really liked the idea of finding out the sex if the baby at the birth. Nothing against people who get excited and want to know earlier, but this is a personal preference for me. DH wants to know earlier and I told him he can peek at the screen with the tech, but I want to find out at delivery.

That being said, there are some super cute nursery ideas floating around (@kismetjess)!!

psychobutthead · August 2014

I like finding out the sex because i feek like i can connect with the idea of who the baby might be.

Those full panel pants get super hot during the summer months.

They're great, though because you can fold them down, too. I find that late in my pregnancy, when I'm really big, I fold the panel down because I just can't stand things touching my stomach. Everything hurts, and a tight elastic panel is like torture.

Is it just me or are the weeks like dragging by now? Not even like pregnancy weeks of how far I am but just the general working week? Every week feels like its never going to end and I just anticipate friday so I can get some much needed sleep during the weekend.

This is so going to drag by.

edunsmoor · August 2014

Work today is just dragging; I swear it has been 2pm for 7 hours already. We're telling my brother tonight with an early birthday cared - he's a Valentine's baby and my due date is 2/16 - so that's probably why today has been a special kind of torture.

Oem617 · August 2014

I tried to take a HDBD picture today and feel like I look smaller than I did the last two weeks. Odd.

OMG @thegoodpotato

I just realized that you put the Canadian flag at the bottom of your siggy. I thought someone was totally sucking up to you and love titting all of your posts. I hovered over the flag to get the screen name and nothing came up and I got all pissy b/c I want to know who the kiss ass was.

Okay, order has been restored. Carry on.

@ChickenOnSunday I put that there because I've been responding to things on the tri boards, and I just don't want to have to keep re-iterating that "I'm Canadian, and our medical system is different" when I'm speaking about my experiences.

Although with some of the things people ask about on those boards, I'm not sure how many of the OPs are smart enough to know that our medical system is socialized..... Or that we're a different country. Or where we're located.....

CatLadyTX · August 2014

Update on my packing/cleaning/wishing I was napping situation, because I know you are all on the edge of your seats waiting to see if I can pull it off before DH gets home. I cleaned the living room and kitchen. That is good enough, right? I can't pack for DS until his nap is over because I'm dumb and forgot to pull out pjs for him. I guess I can finish my packing, and then pretend to relax. You may now all carry on with the rest of your days.

psychobutthead · August 2014

I lurked over to November 2014.

It made me so sad. Its the first time I've did it since my loss. I know it happened almost 6 months ago but it still hurts to know I'll never get to have that baby. I'm happy I got pregnant again so fast but I just keep thinking I should know by now what that baby was going to be. And I wonder what would they looked like and what kind of person would they have grown up to be.

No more November 2014 lurking for me.

If you are on a computer it's pretty simple! I just google until I find one I like, copy the image URL, and then click "insert image" on the posting header/toolbar thingie and paste in my link. If the preview works, it will most likely post. But sometimes the bump screws with things...so try at your own risk ;-)

@lrjjj08 It's just a painted Ikea Hemnes dresser!

I've been thinking about painting the dressers in DS & the new baby's room. I'm so hesitant though. They are my dead grandparents dressers from the 1940's and I feel like I'd be ruining them. Although, they are full of scratches and paint would make them look nicer.

....what to do, what to do....

take a bunch of pictures and maybe frame some in the room. what would your grandparents say?? I'd be way too upset too but I know my grandparents would yell at me for being upset and would love to see new life in them

OMG I think it worked, happy dance right here.

MaddScientist · August 2014

I have been super busy at work this week, and yet, all my experiments turned out to be SHIT. I am really feeling the pressure (my 1 year review is in the next 2 weeks) and I have got jack all to show for myself. In addition, my second part-time job has also taken up a buttload of my evenings this week, and I only got like $100... What a wasted week. I wanna re-do I wanna skip ahead to next week.

Plus, I haven't been around and I feel like y'all don't even miss me

MommyOfAMiracle · August 2014

I'm full. I'm constantly full and bloated. I'm so uncomfortable. But i'm so hungry. I eat and then I regret eating because it makes me so uncomfortable.

But I just love food.

None around me...I buy online. I have to buy all my pants through ON or gap though because I need long and those sob's are hard to find!

ambernicole06 · August 2014

I sent my sister a text saying "this is how I feel"... I seriously looked in the mirror and looked Atleast 5 months pregnant ridiculous! I'm so bloated and not crapping (sorry if tmi) isn't helping *sigh* need more baggy shirts!!!

Our email server has been down all day. I'm not looking forward to the 60000 emails that are going to come flooding in once it comes back up.

It's a conspiracy. Our email has been up and down since Monday. It's the worst.

FlowerPower16 · August 2014

I went to Kohl's today over lunch and bought way too much. Apparently at some point I had set my car keys down and forgot to pick them back up. When I went to leave I realized I didn't have them. I retraced my steps, checked with customer service, and still didn't find them so I panicked a little bit. I finally ended calling my husband to come and bring me the spare key. He went back in the store with me and the first place we looked, he found them. Pregnancy brain at it's finest!

SNail312` · August 2014

Went into the midwife today for the first appointment and talked about payment plans. $620/ month so I'll be paid up before the baby gets here. OWWWW.....

mommy510 · August 2014

I hate our fulfillment center. So much!
It's like working with a bunch of children. My 4 yo follows directions better than these people. And they wonder why we are taking our business elsewhere!
*end vent*

In other news, DH is wonderful! He helped me clean the bathrooms today and played with the kids in the pool while I rested after lunch. And he let's me take daily afternoon naps when I should be working.

$787/mo here. Freaking ridiculous! I miss our old insurance so much right now. We pay more for this insurance and it sucks!

thegoodpotato · August 2014

In other news... Amanda slept through the night for the first time in about a week and a half (she is teething). I feel like crap. Apparently my body *likes* to be awake from midnight to 3am.

I had some crazy-ass dreams, though... that's for sure! I was part of a synchronized swimming choir group. And we were doing a song that I was supposed to have a solo for, but we had never rehearsed it, and I didn't know the words, so I ended up running away crying.

mandamoochie · August 2014

SNail312` and @mamabisme that's crazy. Our insurance usually sucks, but maternity is the ONE thing it has done right. A trip to the ER once for my husband to get a diagnosis of syncopy once cost us over a grand... but Maternity is 100% covered for anything and everything pre/post natal.

Sorry to hear that it sucks so badly.

mamabisme · August 2014

DH is with a new company now. Overall, the job is much better and he is making more but the insurance is awful! We knew it would be bad so we're prepared for it but it still sucks.

I used the same doctor for my last pregnancy (2.5 years ago) and we paid less than 1/3 OOP than we are paying this time.

OUCH-- that's more than our hospital and OB. I thought midwives were less expensive?

In further news, TB is messing up my computer. So I'll be away for the rest of the day.

psychobutthead · August 2014

So I told MIL about my hair dying mishap, I then got lectured on how I'm not suppose to dye my hair.

For one the dye didn't have ammonia. Also this is coming from a woman who smoked cigarettes and weed with all of her pregnancies. She also didn't monitor her caffeine and drank as much coffee and cokes as she wanted.. but apparently me dying my hair is worse than any of that. She also didn't have any prenatal screenings or ultrasounds with any of her kids. SO WTF. I'm sorry the weed and cigarettes everyday for 9 months was alot worse then the time I spent in a well ventilated room on my hair.

Irishcurls · August 2014

So guys. Had my appointment today--got to hear a nice strong heartbeat!! Even recorded it on my phone to show my mom and the ILs. So yayayay. Go back in 4 weeks for another boring ol' check! MW said I was looking "vibrant" and everything looks great. Woooot.

Also we made pizza with fresh mozz and basil from my herb garden. Holy fucking delicious. The end.

Ducktale · August 2014

Yay @Irishcurls‌ ! I wish I had recorded the heartbeat.

umbcpt · August 2014

I'm flying to Texas tomorrow, alone, for a convention. Leaving DH here to work his shifts this weekend; DS and DD are going with my mom.

I am excited about the convention, but more excited about three solid days of uninterrupted showers. No one will come in to pee while I'm in the shower. Blissful!

I will miss my family, but enjoy my time alone too

mandamoochie · August 2014

Bah. This is so sweet it made me cry. Damn pregnancy hormones.

I love the full panels, seriously. I have some maternity yoga pants and leggings with the panel that I still wear weekly. Sometimes it's pulled up to my boobs, sometimes it's folded over. So versatile! :P

You guys don't get too hot in the full panels? They're definitely more comfy, but then I find myself folding them down anyway because I start sweating. (Then my pants start sliding down...)

Do we have to wear pants? I mean, really. I wish I could go bottomless all the time.

Sometimes my husband calls around 2 or 3 just to ask if I've put pants on, I guess that will probably change once the kids get here.

SNail312` · August 2014

Midwives are cheaper, but the way ours works is she bills insurance after the birth. Then she'll reimburse us if they give anything back. Our deductible is rediculous and we may not get any back! However, in the long run, it'll probably be cheaper. Definitely a wake up call to this baby adventure!!
