  • @breezymeema7 thinking of you today, let us know how you make out!! T&P
  • I'm thankful I've made it 31 weeks so far! My sister had PPROM at 24 weeks and delivered at 30, and once you see what that's like sometimes it's hard to not think it will happen to you too. So getting past week 30 seems like a milestone to me. I'm also thankful all of our family is coming to visit us before baby comes to see us and get quality time with our DD.
  • I am so thankful I don't have to travel for work until February.  I got out of the rest until then due to pregnancy and newborn.  I usually don't mind traveling because I get a giant hotel bed all to myself and get to go out to restaurants with people without a three year old crawling on me.  However, I did not want to go on the most recent one.  I wanted to stay home with my husband and (outside) baby and nest.  So thankful I can relax now and concentrate on this baby coming.


     

  • Thankful for just being pregnant and God blessing my husband and I with this precious baby! A friend of mine has been going through difficulties trying to get pregnant. It's tough because I want to talk about mine but I don't want to make her upset. All I know is that I pray for her all the time and thank God for sparing us that pain because I don't know if I could be as strong as she has been. She's an inspiration!
  • I'm thankful for my son and my FIL. Today has been a rough day and didn't have the strength to move, so they took care of me.
    I'm also thankful for my crazy fabric hoarding that I had in February bc now I can sit in bed and sew stuff for my lil girl.
  • I'd like to add that I'm VERY thankful for DH. We made a trip to Macy's to pick up a necklace for my sister as a thank you for helping with my shower. While I was taking care of that, he ventured into another store nearby so I figured I'd stop in Hallmark and pick up his Father's Day card. Long story short, I ended up leaving Hallmark in tears because I wasn't prepared for all the dad stuff. When I met him in the store he was in, I was a mess and all I managed to get out was, "I clipped you some coupons." and handed him a fistfull of coupons I had clipped earlier this week. He was very confused and when he saw the Hallmark bag, he held my hand (and me) until I pulled myself together and then he told me he loved me and we could talk when or if I ever felt like it. Sigh. This is hard, but I am so grateful to have someone like him to make it easier. :x
  • Thankful hubby finally sold his truck today, and we can buy a second four door vehicle (I've got one myself and I looooooove it).

    Today hubby and I have been together three years!

    And even though getting laid off sucks, and unemployment has been boring, I've been grateful to be able to take it easy during my pregnancy. After finding out I have Lupus, which makes me really tired all the time, on top of being pregnant tired, being able to rest before baby girl gets here is a blessing. Now if I could just get her nursery done lol.
  • @laurenashley519 congrats!! That is a big deal and can be so hard! DH and I recently were able to do this as well and it feels fantastic. Now to get rid of these pesky student loans ;)

    I'll be a total weirdo and be thankful for the Bump. Even though it annoys the life out of me sometimes with what people feel the need to post about, I've learned a lot from you women who have conquered motherhood before me. Knowledge is power and while I feel that I have decent common sense and research skills, many of you have taught me valuable tips and lessons. On that note and because I don't want to start a thread about dreams: last night I had a dream that @breezymeema7 had dated a guy that I've known since I was in grade school. Somehow I started dating him in present time and @SassetteSmurfling blasted me on here, using my full legal name for scamming on her leftovers. I tried defending myself saying I've known him forever and it just happened but I was mobile and couldn't get all my typos to correct and was super stressed about it. So well done... You've all crossed over into my subconscious and are in my dream world now. :-/
    Lol. Is he at least cute @megvaddi ? And I totally have bumpie dreams too :) 
  • @breezymeema7 @megvaddi Oh thank God, I thought I was the only one having Bump dreams. There have been times I have woken up in the morning and had to check to see if these things happened or if I was just completely lost in Bumpie Dreamland.
  • I'm thankful that even though I was a super emotional bitch this morning DH made dinner so I didn't have to. Not only did he make dinner, but 1 of my comfort food favs, my dads "secret" recipe chicken nuggets (its so secret it only has 2 ingredients other then chicken lol). So after another emotional breakdown, I am well fed and putting my swollen feet up and enjoying the nice breeze out on the deck.
  • So thankful for my husband and all of his love and support, as well as our families! I'm most thankful for my little girl growing in my belly, it's the best feeling ever!

    I was thankful my doctor couldn't make it to my appt because she had to deliver another baby.  As a result I got to hang out with an awesome NP that was super sweet :)

    It's funny cause he's not unattractive, but I'm not personally attracted to him in the least, so I don't know why my brain chose him. And from what I've gathered, he's not your bald beefy type either. ;)
  • I am thankful that our families are so excited for us. They have purchased the crib, mattress, bedding and the dresser for the nursery, which was totally unexpected. We are truly blessed!

    And even though my picture double posted...I WILL NOT DELETE IT!

    Lol you and @breezymeema7 are cracking me up today.
  • I'm thankful for my new job. I just started this week and it's been great and comes with amazing, much needed benefits. It was truly a blessing!
  • I am also very thankful that when I had my crazy pregnancy spur-of-the-moment "awesome" idea that we should sleep outside in a tent tonight with DS that DH did not jump all over it. As I just took the dog out to pee I realized what a HORRIBLE idea that was - seriously...as it is I have to get up every hour to pee, why the heck would I want to deal with that in a tent?!?! No thanks!!
  • @megvaddi you know me so well :) If you happen to see anything like this walking around, please send him my way! Prison tats and all ;)
