Thankful Thursday

adecembermom2015 · June 2015

Hey ladies! I know we have tons to rant about, gripe about, complain about because it is hard to create a human and life can be stressful!

Today I was reflecting on how thankful I am for my DH. He's been picking up extra shifts to earn some extra money and working hard around the house. I'm so thankful to have him by my side during this pregnancy.

What are you thankful for today?

grkgdss00 · June 2015

I'm thankful I get to see my bean today at our NT scan, although a little nervous. We just bought a new house and moving next month, I have MUCH MORE to be thankful for than to be ungrateful for. God has blessed.

That even though I've been sick with a cough for the last week, DD hasn't got anything from it.

VesperLove · June 2015

I'm thankful that DH's company is FINALLY going through an acquisition (we've been waiting for years) and if all goes well, that will mean a bit of financial security as we prepare for baby which would be amazing!

I'm also thankful for fans because our house was so hot last night and I was actually able to sleep comfortably!

adecembermom2015 · June 2015

@redfallon I hope you feel better soon! I'm glad DD is staying healthy. ❤️

Thank you! I just know how awful I've been feeling and if she was feeling like this, I'd feel horrible. Also, if she'd been coughing as hard as I've been, she'd probably vomit, and that would be no fun for anyone.

I'm thankful that our offer went through on our house and that I have a FIL that, although I don't often agree with him, is able to help us with a huge chunk of down payment, so that our baby will be able to be brought home to a nice house in a nice neighborhood.

I am also thankful for a DH that takes any opportunity he can at work to make some extra money.

I'm thankful that we are going on a cruise in July!

I could go on! Good thread @magburt!

esscapelle · June 2015

I'm thankful for my DH getting our baby room ready this week! Moved out our guest bedroom furniture, painted all the trim & walls, added crown molding, replaced the light, and got new window coverings. Now we can get furniture whenever we are ready! I absolutely LOVE having a handyman hubby. :x

yl1m32015 · June 2015

Great thread!!!

I'm grateful for my mother. She's always my voice of reason. Now being pregnant I'm starting to understand a mothers love and I appreciate all that she's done for me.

ealiska · June 2015

I'm grateful to my husband for spending hours after work and on weekends painting our new house so it's ready for us to move in in a week and a half, and for not judging me for drinking ice water in pint glasses and juice in wine glasses.

ealiska · June 2015

AND for the new season of Orange is the new black

jutondreau · June 2015

I'm thankful for a husband who loves me even in my worst moods and makes every effort to provide for our family not only financially, but also emotionally. ☺️ And that we leave for an adults only 2 weeks vacation on SATURDAY!!

Great thread @magburt!!

ToneGirl · June 2015

So thankful for all my friends that have been helping me by giving me baby items (crib, dresser, breast pump, bottles, etc) because I have NOTHING and sold all my son's stuff not thinking I would have another. We live on a tight budget so this has been such a blessing for us to get the help!

stephaniearthurs · June 2015

I'm gonna be mushy here, but I'm thankful for the little jellybean growing inside me! I have watched friends and family struggle with infertility and I'm so thankful that it only took us a few months to get get pregnant!!

Also, my husband rocks!!!

Praying41 · June 2015

I'm thankful just be be pregnant. Suffering from infertility and being told my chances were 1.7% it's pretty humbling to know that I've been blessed with this miracle and gift.

Also thankful we finally got keys to our new place n are moving out of the trashy apartments we are in now!

nik6499 · June 2015

I'm so thankful that I am finally starting to feel like there is a baby at the end of the tunnel and we are getting excited. My DH is the most loving and supportive man in the world and we are both excited to bring our baby home after three long years and a roller coaster of emotions. I finally feel like I can breathe. And for the women that I've met her who I truly feel are kindred spirits, I adore you all and this journey has been so much more because you are apart of it, you all know who you are

Hey! Are you still coughing a lot? Just saw this while scrolling through fb. No idea if it works or not, but pineapples juice is delicious so it can't hurt!

I hit "quote" instead of "love it" by accident so now I think I'm stuck in a box. Oh well. I'm thankful that everything looked good at our NT scan this week. I'm also thankful for a very hardworking husband who is also a great dad to DS

Knottie67744546 · June 2015

Im grateful that im feeling better, so I can focus and not fall asleep at work. Im grateful I've gotten through my summer night time course without missing too many days. UMmmmm Im just grateful for you guys lol :-)

kimb311 · June 2015

I'm grateful for Costco pretzel rolls and chicken salad. Seriously ladies, if you have one near you, GO!
And y'all are making me tear up! Lovely thread!

mfarglio · June 2015

I'm thankful for my sister & her family. My SO. My Mom and dad & my boyfriends parents as well. My baby. And of course my D15 LADIES.

GodIsFaithful93 · June 2015

I'm thankful for my DH. He works super hard to keep me a stay at home mom for our 14 mo DD and the new baby. He was so supportive of me leaving a job where I was miserable and stressed 24/7. I'm also thankful for a faithful and providing God.

AlejandraN2 · June 2015

I'm thankful for so much - our health, my amazing hubby and my sunshine, my little girl. I'm thankful that i can go on a work trip and not have to worry that my hubby will take care of our daughter the same way i would. And I'm thankful that our NT scan results for this little bean came back normal.

Also, i'm thankful for prune juice. Miraculous stuff those prunes.

rain0831boww · June 2015

Grateful that dh and I have jobs and so grateful to have the blessing inside of me who will be 16 weeks on Saturday. Also grateful for amazing parents and in-laws. Great examples of what parents should be.

hplunkett2883 · June 2015

I like this thread.

I'm thankful for my husband. He is so kind and gentle. He has stepped up to the plate and took on the role of step dad having no children of his own. He helps around the house. He works 14 hours 6 days a week. He puts our family first. I honestly could not have asked for a better man. Just wish I would have had some insight back in high school then neither of us would have had to endure the hardships we faced before we reconnected. But I am grateful to have him now. And I'm grateful for this growing family of ours.

holly1811 · June 2015

I am thankful my husband finally landed himself a permanent contract with work. So least he has job security now. Weve only been waiting 3 years \:D/

koala1107 · June 2015

Great thread! I'm so thankful to be only a few days away from second trimester! We were given a 90% miscarriage rate due to my wonky septate uterus and it's finally starting to look like we're in the 10% that will make it!
I'm so thankful for my husband whose put up with my crazy emotions and who does everything he can to cheer me up. He bought me a Doppler when I had a week of uncontrollable crying afraid of miscarriage (I didn't even know he knew what that was!) and then on top of that has insisted on getting a horse for me because he knows how much riding and horses have meant to me my whole life, but I'd been too scared of the financial commitment to get back into it. He works so hard to ease my fears and make me happy and I feel so lucky to have him.

Also so thankful for you girls who keep me sane on days when pregnancy is all I can think about and I can't stop myself from constantly refreshing this page!

313Meg · June 2015

I'm thankful for the hope and promise of a future. We work and DH works so hard to provide for us. And we are blessed to be able to have a future together as a family. And I can't wait to see my kids growing up together!!! Ahhhh it makes me mushy!

chelseymmcghee · June 2015

I'm thankful I still am carrying a healthy baby! I am still bleeding daily (almost two weeks after my threatened MC) and my baby is perfect! Little things like hearing the heartbeat on my doppler make me SO thankful, as I know how easily this could slip away!

taysun · June 2015

I am so thankful for my new queen sized mattress that bf bought us yesterday, after months of sharing a twin! And I'm thankful that we got to spend our first night in our new apartment together before he started his new night job tonight, which I am also thankful for!

middlebunn · June 2015

I am thankful for good news today after a concerning NT scan 2 very long weeks ago.

I am also grateful for this board and all of you. I have been a dedicated lurker since I got my BFP on April 1st! I have cried with you and prayed for you each and every day. You were my sanity and a wealth of information when I wasn't ready to go to friends and family with my fears.

MommaC8713 · June 2015

I had to stop reading these halfway through because I started tearing up!

I am thankful for my loving and wonderful husband and so thankful for the amazing father I know he will be.

I am also thankful for cheese. All kinds. Hot, cold. By itself. On things. In things. Yum.

Mother0fDragons · June 2015

Great topic @Marburg! I'm thankful for some time off from work and school with DH out in New Hampshire's beautiful White Mountains! Also thankful for hubbys' emotional support and dealing with my mood swings. Lastly thankful for this little bean growing in me, I love him or her so much already! :x

babyboateng · June 2015

Thankful for my supporting DH and for a healthy baby boy!

CMDD · June 2015

today i'm so thankful for the good nuchal exam yesterday, and that my husband could be there!

ammnam14 · June 2015

I'm thankful for my family in general. My mom makes the 2 hr trip every weekend to check up on me since I'm alone. We always have the best time together.

I'm always thankful for my husband, his job is just so hard and stressful. I appreciate him in every way. :x

taysun · June 2015

@sailingupmnts enjoy the mountains! I grew up in NH and try to spend as much time as I can up there!

elbou · June 2015

Today, I am thankful to finally have an "official" due date after waiting 4 weeks between the dating ultrasound and yesterday's appointment.

I'm thankful that DH worked from home yesterday so that I could drive to my appointment instead of having to take the bus, and thankful for some girl time with a good friend who offered to come with me and watch DS while I was with the midwife.

I'm thankful that I will be able to see some close friends of DH and I get married in Greece, and get to celebrate our anniversary while we're there.

I'm thankful for broccoli salad. I started planning a few meals for this week, and all of a sudden wanted it so bad! So I put it on tonight's menu and bought the ingredients, but when I started making it tonight, I realized I couldn't find the recipe for the dressing! After a frantic search, I finally found it, and it turned out so good.

groovylocks · June 2015

I'm thankful for the guy at work with the pregnancy fetish. I have been feeling overwhelmed with all the changes, both physical and mental, and having some drooling guy with the best of intentions tell me how adorable I look four or five times a day is really keeping morale up.

My husband has been a great version of himself too but gushing over my fertility is not his MO.
