With all that has happened since yesterday, let us know how you're feeling.
What's grinding your gears? Collegue chewing with their moith open? DH being extra annoying? Traffic? What is it I wanna know!

My dog is being a little sissy..she gets fed three times a day. Period. She goes to her bowl and whines an hour after being fed. She is a greyhound that is missing a foot. If she gets fat it might throw her hips or worse..just understand I'm here to help you big couch potato..

@bluedaisy2001‌, I'm sorry to say that there's nothing that can save you from GD. It's truly a hormone thing. One of the girls in my GD class was a dietician and didn't understand how this could "happen to her". I hope you avoid it, and good for you for being so good about your diet! MH is horrible about bringing crap home, too!

It's like you're in my brain!

I have a coworker (who I actually love and adore, she is an amazing person), but lately I can hear her popping her gum from like 30 feet away, which makes my skin crawl. I know her job is stressful so I think that's why she does it and I just like her too much to say anything. When I hear that first pop I just put on my headphones.

Also, I finally got my Snoogle and I did not have the dreamy wonderful sleep I was expecting. At 5 AM I threw it off the bed. I'm starting to regret spending the money on it.... did this happen to anyone else?

We got fun sleet and freezing rain in Richmond overnight/this morning. So most of the city opened an hour late. Which means that my a/s got pushed back to this afternoon. I'm very grateful that they were able to get me in today at all, though! We're team green, so I'm not dying over the sex or anything, I just want to see my wee beastie again and know everything is growing as it should. My poor mom had made it all the way to the hospital before I could reach her. I'm mostly disappointed for her, because we don't know if she'll be able to come now or not. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for her!

There has been some talk about me going to Paris for work for a training. Evening with ALL That is going on Our office is located in a very safe location. If i am 100% invited I will be going. But i know that my family will give me a whole bunch of push back because A) Paris isn't that safe right now and

I am Jewish and Jew's in Paris have had a lot of trouble within the last 6 months in terms of Harassment and Vandalism. I have never been and would not give up the opportunity to go for free!! Add to the fact that I will probably be anywhere between 26-29 weeks pregnant.

I am not scared to fly while pregnant, I just don't want the added stress that my family is going to be putting on me!

mrscampos4life · January 2015

@dkleid‌ maybe you could meet up with Suzie!

cnoelle92 · January 2015

Since TB wants to be dumb, I'm trying to figure out this new site. Kind of lame, but worth it if I can keep in touch with all you lovely ladies. Plus I'm just a big ol crank today...blehh! Snowflakes beware!!

staciecoffey · January 2015

@finchfeeder80‌!! You're a Virginia bumpie too! This makes my little southern ass happy! Waynebsoro got ice, freaking ice because I have time for that shit apparently. I'm such a huge crank pot today I could throw a temper tantrum and not give two shits. My dog who we adopted(horrible experience, he was abused) pees in his crate no matter how long he's in there...this has been ongoing for a year....well the trainer said to put his food bowl in there and see if that helps...shocker it did! But now he has an attitude about it and barks at 3 in the damn morning...

luvindanimals · January 2015

@finchfeeder80‌ I live near Richmond too. My work (a preschool) is closed today. I keep thinking how grateful I am that my A/S is Friday because I can't drive in ice. Hope all goes well this afternoon!

Mommaswizz · January 2015

Ugh. my complaint is the heat in my office. It's 80 degrees in here!!! I went home early twice last week from feeling sick from this. I even bought a thermometer so the jerks can stop saying "it's just cause you're pregnant". If it was August and over 80 degrees in here, it would be absurd.

Anyone else dealing with oppressive temperatures at work? I have no idea how to deal with this, other than leaving early and working from home. Do i contact HR? OSHA?

BLEGHHHHHHHH uncomfortable and pregnant

YES! The heat is on at my school, and my classroom gets SO HOT. I literally start to sweat and feel like I smell like a dead animal. I combat the situation by opening a window and hanging my head outside. Also, all the fans are on.

mamayo26 · January 2015

The HR department is driving me nuts, the director asked to reschedule after keeping me waiting for 15 minutes. We are supposed to meet every other week and we haven't met since before Halloween. I get she is busy, but you are in HR...stop wasting my time making me walk to the other end of the building and waiting (has happen multiple times). The other "girls" are so clicky and they drive everyone crazy, plus have rediculous request that I refuse to do, because I refuse to put out sub-par work! UGGG! Is it June yet?

Schnurette · January 2015

Our office door won't stay shut and it is too cold to ignore it. So I have to get up to let people in or else continually get up to keep shutting it. Most of the time it says closed just long enough for me to sit back down.

Also, it's freaking cold. I'm inside and my toes are cold.

mcp6286 · January 2015

I'm really annoyed today. I need your perspectives, because my three closest friends can't agree on what I should do. This will be long. Sorry...I'm extremely pissed off!

So here's the back story: my BFF has been my BFF my entire life, but in high school and college I had one other very close girl friend. BFF was teaching abroad in Korea when I got engaged and it was going to cost her $4500 to come home for the wedding. Obviously I told her that was crazy and that I totally understood why she couldn't be there. So I asked this other friend, A, to be my maid of honor.

A was away at college that year and so it was understandable that she couldn't be home to do some of the regular MOH duties with me. I thought nothing of her absence. Then about a month before the wedding, she stopped answering/returning my calls and emails. I didn't speak to her the whole month of April and then a week before my wedding she texted to tell me to meet her and the other bridesmaids at Starbucks that Sat for my bachelorette. I thought it was a little weird but agreed.

I got to Starbucks and one other bridesmaid was there with A, along with a friend who wasn't in the wedding. They told me they hadn't invited anyone else and that we were going to a local bar for drinks, then home because they didn't want to spend money.

Now, I was a VERY low key bride...picked the least expensive dresses possible, let the girls pick their own shoes/jewelry/etc, didn't make any requests for my shower or bachelorette. So I was a little hurt that after avoiding me for 6 weeks, they clearly didn't want to be bothered with even trying to throw me a fun night. So I just told them not to worry about it, that I didn't need a bachelorette if it was stressful. They said ok and all went home.

A insisted on meeting us at the church on wedding day (wouldn't get her hair done with everyone else or get dressed with us). She barely spoke to me all day. As I was leaving, she told me to have a good honeymoon. Those were literally the last words she spoke to me.

When I got home, I tried to get in touch constantly for like 2 months. Then I found out that she went to Europe, got engaged and had a wedding date picked...all without telling me. I kept trying to get in touch for a while longer, then finally left her a voicemail telling her that I was really confused about what was going on, that I was sorry if I'd offended her in some way and asked her to at least call me back to tell me if our 8-year friendship was over. I never heard from her again.

UNTIL 2 days ago! Yes, almost 7 years later, completely out of the blue, she sends me a FB message saying that she's been feeling guilty for years. She said she was indeed mad at hubby and I but didn't say why. She said she realizes that cutting us out with no explanation was "probably not the best way to handle emotions" even though we likely wouldn't have stayed friends in the future anyway. She said she hoped we were well. No actual apology or explanation...it seemed like she was just trying to ease her guilty conscience without taking any responsibility.

I haven't written back. Don't know if I want to or will. Part of me wants to be totally juvenile and bitch her out, because I feel like she deserves it even though I have long since gotten over the situation. Part of me thinks I should just nicely write back and smooth things over. Part of me wants to ignore it and not even engage in the drama. Ughhhh....I'm so annoyed that she got in touch. It was so long ago. I'm over it. I've moved on. I can look at my wedding pictures without crying. I have much better friends in my life. Let it go sister! If you read all this...I'm impressed and would love your thoughts!

Jessica16393 · January 2015

I would ignore her like she did you. Maybe in 5 years or so write back apology accepted or something snark if it still upsets you. Don't let her be a priority in your thoughts when it took seven years for her not to apologize..

My mother in law is freaking out over me sending my thankyou cards from our wedding. It's been 2 months and I've sent more than half. She says I'm rude because 6 weeks is proper etiquette and I'm taking to long. I kinda want to just tell her it was my wedding I'll send them when I please. I'm kinda ignoring her 5 calls a day right now. I'm letting hubby deal with it. Good news is he's totally on my side. She's driving me CRAZY.

Haha! You're doing better than MH and I are... We got married at the end of August, and still haven't sent any of our thank you's out..
I'm sorry to hear you're being bugged about this, though!

lwyz · January 2015

I'm jealous of you guys with hot offices! I'm aaaalways cold and my office legit gets into the 50s sometimes because it's an old building with old windows. But I'm not allowed a space heater.

Ugh. MIL would do that to me if she had any concept of social etiquette. Pretty sure it's widely accepted that you have 6 months to get your thank you's out...it's certainly taken that long for me to get them from the last few weddings I attended. By the time I get the card, I can't remember what I even got them! You're fine!

staciecoffey · January 2015

@mcp6286‌, this hurt my heart!! I kind of went through a similar situation with my older sister who is also my best friend. My hubby and I had been talking about getting engaged for a LONG time and she text him and said not to worry if we got engaged before her and her BF. So we did, and we're talking about a January wedding. My sister went ape shit because she had told me(not that I honestly remembered) that they were getting married in the fall(even though they weren't engaged yet). Things got so damn tense that my parents called a meeting and I agreed to change my date to appease her...fast forward to that summer after having to change our wedding date multiple times dues to hormonal weather, I asked my parents if we could push our date up because I was tired of waiting and accommodating my sisyer(finally engaged) they agreed but said they wanted to tell her and her than fiancé. Needless to say WWIII broke out in our house and would have continued had I not finally said fuck it and apologized even though I wasn't in the wrong.

I would at least acknowledge and say you appreciate her reaching out even though she didn't apologize. The high roads sucks but it's the right thing to do.

Stormy61 · January 2015

@mcp6286‌ I would at least find out why she was mad. Only bc it would drive me crazy not to know. I wouldn't go out of my way to be friends again.

isn't a year post-wedding proper etiquette? i did mine probably 6-8 months after. i feel your pain over crazy MIL, though. mine's driving me crazy over baby stuff ALL THE TIME. it started with baby shower nonsense.. the constant texts and emails i get - i'm definitely over it (and her tbh lol). very happy she doesn't live close

I went through something really really similar, which started with my engagement and ended with my BFF asking the no-longer-BFF what the hell happened, and as a result the no-longer-BFF dropped out of BFF's wedding and basically told us we are both shitty human beings and idiots for our life choices.

I've never spoken to her since she sent me a long, angry, unkind Facebook message (we cannot be friends because of my life choices (DH and a baby), my political affiliations (none?), my life goals (happiness?) etc. etc.

If I was you I'd do the same.

Oh, and it turned out that one of the major reasons that we "weren't friends anymore" was that she didn't like my DH. Apparently he is "controlling". (Read: wanted a relationship with me...which results in me not being able to spend all of my time with her, lord forbid.)

I thought it was a year too.

angielayne926 · January 2015

mcp6286, I would also try to figure out why she was upset. Tell her you appreciate her reaching out. I wouldn't go out of my way to renew the friendship unless she makes more of an effort.

crashski13 · January 2015

We went for our a/s today and while I was on the fence about wanting to find out baby's sex...DH wanted to so I agreed...well baby wouldn't uncross it's legs so needless to say we couldn't find out. I'm annoyed. Overjoyed that baby is healthy and such however I FINALLY got on board and was excited as I already have two boys and now I don't know :-( I don't like others making those decisions for me! The tech did say she didn't see a penis...but couldn't say with certianty that there wasn't in fact one there. Sigh. Only 22 more weeks!

erbear84 · January 2015

I am annoyed I have to go home and make dinner tonight when all I want is crunch berries. H is usually off on Wednesdays so this stinks even more.

Hi VA ladies! Hampton Roads area...barely any ice, but everything delayed 2 hours, including DD's daycare, but not my work of course. Andplusalso, DD came home with pink eye today...AWESOME.

@mommacandi‌, pink eye sucks! Sorry DD got it, hopefully it'll clear up soon!

There is fire in my eyes. That garbage does not get a love tit and if it does I just can't even justify the loyalty there. Side freakin eye.

Interesting. I didn't even notice...looking now

Agreed. I wore my pants unbuttoned with a belly band today and I'm more convinced than ever that it's time to buy maternity trousers.

Harperdawn · January 2015

I feel like on the edge of murdering my fiance lately. Everything is about him and his god damn friends. Like i am the pregnant one and you spend more time caring about everyone else besides me and our daughter. Rough times over here

YOU GUISE. I'm pretty sure I just had sex in my FAVORITE position for the last time. My bump was in the way and it was distracting and making it push up on my diaphragm more than it already ease so it was definitely not kind to my breathing. Excuse me while I go ugly cry now.

Not knowing positions for pregnant sex and we tried with me on my back, yeah didn't work out so great. We basically didn't finish and left it at well, yeah good try, how about nxt wk!

YES! Took me several nights of playing with positions to get comfy. I tried it with just the Snoogle, but my neck wasn't feeling supported - added a pillow under the snoogle at my head, and it made a huge difference. I usually wake up all tangled in it, but it's more comfortable then not using it.

staciecoffey · January 2015

How are y'all even wanting sex? My hubby practically begs for it and I'm all nope, not going to happen. The few times it has happened, I can freaking walk straight.

I just looked and all I can say is WoW. How any one could think that garbage is ok enough to love tit it is beyond me.

=eye roll=

***Expected quote fail***

I only saw one regular who did it and that person is on the other site, too. So I'm confused.
