  Ughhh i have a weight bitch. I'm sorry everyone
  
  I've stopped gaining at 18 pounds. Like seriously STOPPED GAINING. I gained four pounds over a week and then lost them, and since then nothing. I have to be on a super high dose of thyroid meds because it's so fucked up and i think that's why i've gained so little and then stopped gaining. Anyway. My belly is growing and i'm not gaining, so i have a stomach covered in the most HIDEOUS and PAINFUL stretch marks and my belly itself is a freaking boulder. The stretch marks keep me up every night and burn/itch no matter what i slather on them. I have to wear a beband, my full panel maternity pants, and a back brace to keep my pelvis in line AND gravity from making things worse. SO NOT COMFY. I was up last night almost shrieking from the pain and had to sleep wearing the beband
  
  I have a ton of amniotic fluid and DD is A+ fine in terms of size and such, but WHY SO PAINFUL? WHY? It's making me bitch at people constantly bad enough sitting down on the toilet and bending over and WALKING hurts because my pelvis is an asshole, but no position is comfy when your tummy is a ball of burning pain. I was groaning all last night and trying to wedge my tummy up with pillows. My poor mom has to listen to this crap too lol
  
  -_- i hate you, thyroid.
  
  Sorry for the weight bitch everyone

  @fyreandblood  sorry you're in sooo much pain. My OB didn't tell me what I gained at my last appt 2 wks ago but before that it was only 14lbs. I've lost a little because of the GD diet.  I'm probably not in as much pain as you cuz I had enough padding in my belly before the BFP lol..fertility drugs helped a little with that.  I hope your thyroid lets you gain some weight so it lessens a little... Go out and have a nice big ice cream shake

  @AnnieRoo13‌ I hate asshats who can't park. I don't know what I would have done if the guy had actually been near his car. @autumnsnow if there hadn't been someone waiting for my spot, I would have. I was tempted to key his car actually.

  One time, I may or may not have left a nasty note on someone's car who parked so close to my car, it was practically giving it a rectal exam.  It's not that hard people.  I always make sure that people next to me have enough room to get in (mostly because I don't want door dings!)

  I guess this might be a FFFC more than a bitch but I always park closer on the drivers side. Now, my pregnant ass can still get out so there is enough room but I'd rather there be room on the other side to get N out. People always park too close to that side of the vehicle and it's a bitch getting her out sometimes.

  I forgot to post this: At the baby shower, the 80-something yr old friend of my family harassed SO praying for him to propose to me. She basically stalked him talking about we need to get married! Then before she left she came up to me and said she's waiting for the wedding. Oh and she led the prayer before we all ate and said out loud about how we're all sinners. Geez thanks, I haven't forgotten LO will be born out of wedlock.

  WTF?  I would have asked her to leave.

  Also my crazy aunt decided to declare that we were crazy for choosing to not give LO a pacifier. Yea, how many kids do you have or had to babysit? None.

  
  For the record, I also think you're crazy for that decision, lol! Each babe is different but some need to suck. If it's not a pacifier it's your tit. Your baby, your decision though

  I really wanted to. She brought her obnoxious 40 something yr old son too (that I don't know) and he kept commenting on every gift and game out loud. And he stole the one male gift my sisters brought.
  *********************
  
  
  She would have most certainly gotten the WTF look from me. I can't believe people ... And there's no way I could have refrained from giving her a piece of my mind. Sorry you had to deal with the ridiculousness.

  My husband's family baby shower was this past weekend
  Comments from my MIL included:
  Are you sure you're not having twins?
  You'd better have a boy name ready (even though we've had 4 ultrasounds, all confirming LO is a GIRL)
  It's heartbreaking I'm not going to know this granddaughter (we live 2.5 hours away and visit at least once a month)
  
  and my favorite....DH got home last night around 10pm (he drove and stayed there separately from me, I went with my mom) and informed me that they are mad about the date we have chosen for LO's christening. They will still come but said that the extended family probably won't be able to make it (we weren't planning on inviting them anyway) Instead, they are going to throw a separate party for her in their hometown at a more convenient time for them for their whole extended family. I lost it.
  
  Is this wrong of me to think that A) this is my child, MY decision is good enough. We are her parents and can pick what we want to do for special occasions and celebrations for her. and I am not setting a precedent that you can have your own out of state parties for every occasion for this baby?
  
  I'm not sure if I'm just being hormonal and crazy or if my anger about this is justified.
  
  

  Um, no.  Just no.  I hate in-laws.

  Babies are so different! When N was first born my DH was super gung ho about not using a soother. I was going to go crazy though. So, I started using one. A soother for N was a wonderful mute button, lol! She's 15 months now and we only allow it for sleep time.

  I support your decision 100%!

  
  

  Honestly you have to do what works for you (your sanity) and your child. I know we have talked about this before (in many ways on many threads) but to the FTMs out there...
