Hugs @KUinCBUS

@FhSTAR81 - I hope you're ok!

@Ashrish13 - How exciting!

I am going to whine a little. I am so uncomfortable. I seriously wonder how this baby is going to make it to 39+ weeks. He moves around all the time, he's super low, and his movements are starting to get a lot more painful. I don't know if it's his head or hand that is hitting my cervix, but a lot of the time the pain seems to radiate to my groin. I have no idea if that's normal or not. I love him, and I love the reassurance of him moving all the time, but I cannot wait to meet this baby on the outside!

After I get the weekend cleaning done, I am going to try to relax and enjoy some college football today. There are some awesome games on. Hope everyone has a great day!

@KUinCBUS‌ - this is your intervention!!! Knock it off, woman! Get your head and your heart back into what is important- your marriage. Now stop being so hard on yourself and DH and apologize before it begins to fester even more. What's done is done. Leave it in the past.

Ok, how did I do??

I use this on my clients sometimes using my best 'mom voice.' Mind you, my clients are fresh out of prison but still... It can be very effective!

Seriously, take it easy on yourself and your H. Start today over. Big hugs >:D<

@KUinCBUS‌ there actually is such a hotline!! Next time you're at the dr. ask about support for PPD/PPA. I have three different numbers - a nurse, a mom's group and a dr - for when feel that way. It doesn't matter if it doesn't directly relate to my pregnancy at all.

I know the medical systems are different, but there has to be a support group number.. Otherwise you can call mine long distance!

Jpinky9 · October 2014

Big hugs to everyone who needs them today!!

Add me to the couldn't sleep last night group! I went to bed at 11 and woke up at 1 to pee, which is standard, except last night I was unable to fall back asleep until 5:30 and have been up for the day since 7:30. Not to mention having to roll over every 30 minutes to get comfortable!!

Also, we are at our cottage with my family for thanksgiving weekend and I am watching my 6 year old nephew run around and play and for some reason I want to cry, he is so cute and getting so big! Ugh, time sure does fly!!!

AnnieRoo13 · October 2014

@dmo1371‌ I get you on being uncomfortable. Last night at dinner I could barely stand it. LO was moving so so much and every movement hurt. My belly felt so stretched and my whole body just felt very uncomfortable. I'm sorry you feel uncomfortable too

relax and enjoy your football games.

crizz13 · October 2014

I'm going to punch DH. When I asked him what he wanted to do this weekend, he said he really just wants ONE day (tomorrow) to sit and watch football completely uninterrupted all day long....ya know, because he hasn't had the chance to do that all season yet.

Umm.....I'm SORRY I actually bought tickets to your favorite football team, drove 5 hours with you and, saw them LIVE and IN PERSON last week!! And the week before, you missed some football because you got tickets to see Derek Jeter's last baseball game ever. Grrrrrrr.

So...who wants to volunteer for the N14 Welcome Wagon? Your job will be to welcome all new posters to our board by throwing glitter, confetti, and offering them a decaf pumpkin spice latte or milkshake.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Bet you wish you were Canadian now, don't ya?

@ClrkKntismyAE - Bake baby bake. I hope DD recovers soon!

LongIslandMama1114 · October 2014

My cat farted and I swear it's worse than any dog fart I've ever encountered. How is this possible? :-&

Jan1214 · October 2014

I just went through a big Rubbermaid tub of hand-me-down clothes from my sister. I'm completely overwhelmed. I put 3/4 of them back in the box. I told myself I only have to deal with the 3M and newborn stuff today. The rest can wait. And to think that I was worried about not having enough clothes. Between my shower and these, I have enough to clothe a day care center.

belmont1785 · October 2014

My randomness to add:

I just touched up base paint in our kitchen and living room that has needed touching up since I painted them 2 years ago. Now baby girl doesn't have to be mortified when seeing her house for the first time

We get to pick up our new sectional sofa tomorrow, I am super excited.

I have been SUPER emotional lately, like worse than ever. I gave up on makeup because everything makes me tear up.

kjmommy1214 · October 2014

@mommymeg143‌ I have to say that you were one brave woman to Google images of a mucus plug.

It was very educational!

Matthew Broderick was the voice of adult Simba?!? How did I not know this?

FishyMom · October 2014

@dmo1371‌ I am so sorry you are uncomfortable today. I hope your LO gives you a break for at least a football game.

I love the tough love for @kuincbus that you ladies showed, that shows good friendship. Very good advice too. It tickles me and I love it. I am proud that you got up and went to meet DH even if DD made it harder. Have fun at the Italian festival later!

crystaldh · October 2014

I suppose what's next is having to face all of these bodily fluids and whatnot in real life.

violetsmom22 · October 2014

Randomness to add today is DH's birthday so that means cake. Maybe I'll let him have a piece of his own cake.

edit: because I can't spell

Bat Signal to D14. Someone actually posted a picture of their mucus plug.

No. Just no. I'm not even going, cause nausea. But do keep us updated on the reactions.

If our MO OPs think we are mean... Man oh man.. D14 would make them cry. Those ladies keep it real -- kinda bump crushing!

For reals. I like them. We're such bishes.

mander82 · October 2014

Just tried on dresses for my shower. I am disgusted with myself and can't wait to work out and diet. I look so much bigger in the fitting room. Those mirrors are just cruel.

Lol.....I know....I just forget sometimes. I was being silly and shook my booty to my stepdaughter and her friend and my belly shook! That caught me off guard!

mommymeg143 · October 2014

The last 30 minutes or so I've felt light headed with chills. DH said I felt really hot to the touch but I checked and I don't have a fever. The underneath of my rib started hurting so I just went to check my bp. It was 135/77. I'm always at in the low 100's, like 102-105. I know 140 or above is typically considered high and my reading was under that but should I call the nurse anyways? I don't want to seem silly since I know it's not high but it's a lot higher than normal and I feel like poo.

On a happy note, my cousin bought me a rocking chair. I should be getting it some time this week!

I might try to get crafty and add some pillows to it, but I love the dark stain on the wood.

That is an awesome rocker. My mom had one just like it. Funny story - my brother and i were chasing each other once, and I pushed the chair down and it snapped up into his chin. He needed stitches. I'm the best big sister ever!

Also, went bra shopping today. (At a specialty lingerie store, because I pamper my girls, and most of the maternity stores don't carry my cup size.) And I just have to say my boobs are no longer resting on my belly, I'm not dying to get out of my bra after wearing it all day. Plus, I have a really good nursing bra to look forward to wearing when I'm ready to go out in public!

MrsG1019 · October 2014

@Kllopez1221‌ LOVE. THOSE!!!!

wildflower75 · October 2014

Well today was a total waste! At around 11ish when DD and I were having breakfast I started having excruciating pain at the top of my abdomen and all over my lower back (just like that day when I left work in the morning and went to the doctor because the pain was so bad). I figured it was the same problem as before some GI issue/ gas so I took some tums and ended going to the bathroom 4 times. I was writhing in pain until 3 PM and that's when I threw up. I was finally able to sleep. I feel a lot better just a sore back and minor abdominal pain now. But wow that was a very bad episode! I was on all fours, I was tossing and turning I was leaning on the wall, just anything to try to get the pain to subside!

I wanted to take DD to the Harvest Festival...oh well, at least she's only 1 and doesn't understand what she missed and she was able to hang out with Daddy at his art exhibit.
I didn't eat anything different from what I had yesterday morning so I have no explanation for what happened. But
Now I'm scared to eat anything!

@Celticlass6 I wish I could say the same thing about my boobs...I'm dying to take off my bra as soon as I get home from work!!

@ClrkKntismyAE That rocking chair is beautiful!!

@Kllopez1221 beautiful pics!!

@mommymeg143‌ I hope you feel better!!

@kuincbus I was really glad to hear you met up with DH!

I didn't see my mucus plug last pregnancy and I have no desire to see someone else's!! Ick!

morrkim · October 2014

I'm missing my family reunion today. We finally moved close enough that we cpuld do a day trip if we wanted, but I am too uncomfortable and too close to delivering to go. I haven't seen a lot of them since the family reunion last year.

Celticlass6 · October 2014

wildflower75 - Its amazing what a good fitting will do! And I'm sorry your day didn't go the way you hoped. FX it's just some gastro issues?

meeshybee · October 2014

I managed to get another 90 minute nap this morning, but now that the kids are finally in bed and I'm exhausted the reflux has come back with a vengeance. I'm so tired I almost want to cry.

And even better, DH's grandmother wants us to go to homecoming at her church tomorrow. I literally haven't been in church for years and I think I'm going to play the "huge and pregnant" card to get out of it. I really don't need the stress of being paraded in front of all her friends while trying to wrangle 3 kids and DH. She will be pretty unhappy about it, but at least right now I really don't give a shit.

sweetbabyrahe · October 2014

Came home from date night with DH to mucus plug and enema posts plus the thread with the pic on D14...is it Christmas?

Feels like it!!!

AnnieRoo13 · October 2014

I looked at the mucous plug picture on D14. It cannot be unseen.

CarrieAnne09 · October 2014

I've officially joined Team H and it really sucks. I have a question about it. I've been taking warm baths and using prep H. Is this going to go away at all or am I stuck with it until after pregnancy??

Maybe I should have posted a photo to keep up with all the weirdness of posts today.

. Jusssst kidding.

absolutelymaybe · October 2014

@JustJainey - Congrats to your DH!

@huntress17 - Hope everything is OK. Keep us posted!

@ClrkKntismyAE - Sorry to hear about your daughter. I hope she is feeling better soon and DS hangs out longer.

@mommymeg143 - Hope everything is OK. Did you decide to call? My BP is usually in the low 100s, but has had some spikes into the 130s (I check it around the same time every day at work) and have been OK, but mine has never been accompanied by a fever.

@KIlopez1221 - Beautiful pictures! You look awesome!

My random/AW moment:

DH and I just bought four cases of wine today at a cellar sale. I was definitely the most pregnant woman there. I told them I was having twins so needed two cases for each baby.

Now all I need are babies to get here so I can tap into them...

If you're too squeamish for mucus pics, there's also some bizarre board warz drama between J'15 and M'15. I hate myself for knowing this.

We just got back from seeing Gone Girl. I got popcorn AND candy, which I never do. So happy.

Where do I look? I love that you know that! I have nothing better to do this evening as H is working lol

AnnieRoo13 · October 2014

Had a huge dinner for thanksgiving at BIL and SIL's, came home and went to bed as DH has to get up at 4 for work. I was so uncomfortable and my back hurts so much that I got up and now I'm in the bathtub trying to relax and make the pain go away. I just feel so large.
