I have to carry this little handheld device at work for price checks, etc. I misplaced it like four times in the span of two hours, it was ridiculous. I also spend most of my time in part of the building that is as far away from the bathroom as possible, so I run back and forth to a lot to pee. If I hold it, I can't sneeze, cough, or laugh really hard because I'll probably pee myself a little, too. Haha!
My knickers are suddenly too small. Literally this week! I'm so uncomfortable and it's summertime too and I don't want to wear empire line knickers. My Mum has a pair that practically go over her boobs as well. I don't want this look. I'm too early still for bump (12w4d) so it must be the cheesecake and the cupcakes that have done it. Damn.
Yes!! We have had a few days off to wander through Oslo and EACH time we leave the hotel, like literally a block from the hotel. I start getting the most MAJOR vagina weggie of my life. It's like my underwear just shrunk 2 sizes (or, I hate to admit it, my butt is that much bigger). But either way, I'm about to load up on some new underwear ASAP.
New Pregnancy WTF Moment, but it's my Fiance's WTF Moment: Yesterday, our Tour Manager decided to have the epiphany, that YES I was pregnant, and YES I was starting to show. He then proceeded to touch my belly and call me "Mommy". I literally was going to DIE. Anyways, my fiance, who had just played a show was a bit drunk and decided to give me THIS profound statement:
Fiance: "Allison, there are some changes that are going to occur to your body while pregnant....let me tell you those changes now...."
Me: "Ok.............."
Fiance: "Now, you're belly is going to grow. Cuz, you have a baby in there. AND, your boobs. Well, yaaaaaaaaa those have, yaaaaaaaaaaa"
Me: "Ok........................."
Fiance: "And, eventually, the stork is going to come and drop off a baby"
Me: "OH really? That's it? What about the gas but constipation, the heartburn PLUS vomit, the stretch marks AND vericose veins, the hormones that are literally EN FUEGO along with the inability to have a cocktail to take a 'load off', the exhaustion but the inability to sleep, the fact that yes, there IS a tiny little Peach growing inside of me but not quite understanding the impact of that yet, the farts, the burbs, the drool, the hair, the tears, the smells, MY GOD THE SMELLS!!!....What about those changes?"
Fiance: "Well babe....I'm not wikipedia"
WTF lol.
Edit to Add:
I'm sitting in the hotel breakfast buffet area on my iPad, enjoying this much needed breakfast (alone) and over the speaker "Kissed by a Rose" by Seal is playing and I LITERALLY was just singing it OUT LOUD (I cannot sing) and I just realized a family to my left was staring at me. Perfect. Bye!!!
-I finally had some energy to cook. After I made dinner, I started cleaning. I took the pan, forgetting it was burning hot and placed it on my hand to wash it in the sink. Burned by hand
- also while I was cleaning i asked my husband to put the trash bag in the sink. He thankfully knew what I was talking about and didn't ask me any questions and put it in the trash.
- I was craving mcdonalds fries at 3am. My brother in law was out and didn't come home yet (he's living with us for a year while he's in residency ) . I asked him to get me fries over text but he didn't reply. So I was just about to get it and he walks in with mcdonalds fries!! I cried out of happiness while eating it! Lol
- my DH doesn't let me watch TV with commercials anymore. Only hulu plus or Netflix because whenever I see a fast food commercial he knows he has to get it for me... every single one...
A friend of mine gave me some bras she never wore during her pregnancy because I mentioned my boobs weren't fitting in my own anymore. I wore one yesterday and it bothered me all day that I was wearing someone else's bra (even though she's never worn it) and by the end of the day I was sobbing on the floor of the bathroom about it when I finally took it off to put it in the laundry. WTF pregnancy?
My husband and I were going to an appointment with my OB today. As we were chatting, I meant to say 'hospital' and for some inexcplicable reason I said 'ice cream shop.' I have litterally no idea why. Wow, brain. Wow.
@amargaret24 Every time that song comes on, I HAVE to sing it. It's like I don't possess control over my own body. I just belt it out and my voice is soooo bad.
I forgot the word Winter for about 3 minutes today at the dentist. All I wanted to say was "yay for winter babies" and ended up saying "yay for...." And sitting there like an idiot until I remembered the word Winter! Luckily the medical assistant I was talking to is 10 weeks pregnant so we had a good laugh at my pregnancy brain moment, though I may have frightened her a bit at what she has to look forward to in the next few weeks
Just had to share that before leaving for work this morning I literally start balling my eyes out having to leave my dog. He normally is nervous when we leave him and he'll hide but today he just sat on the chair by the door and staired at me as I closed and locked the door.
Totally drove 20 min out of my way on my way to work nearly into Indiana from downtown Chicago. .... And had to pay the skyway toll twice to turn around , good 9 dollar mistake made me want to cry
I ordered out a Italian grinder and walked to get it with my iPod on listening to country (I normally hate country) and ended up chocking back tears the entire walk because I passed so many families with babies.
I was explaining my hormone fluctuations to my husband and how you feel like a teenager again. Like the burning feeling in your chest when you are super excited about something.... Then I proceeded to say," I just had an ah ha moment , kinda like when you remember we will die someday, but its about us having a child in 6 months" wow that sounded bad ....
I puked on myself in the car , I puked on myself in the shower . I prefer the shower
I went to the store to buy a pink, seedless watermelon and apparently picked up a yellow seeded one. I didn't even know they had those at my grocery store.
Yesterday at work, I started gagging at one of my patient's bedsides because of his dirty diaper. I proceeded to throw up all over the floor. I was hoping nobody saw, but my friend and coworker was standing outside the door laughing at me. I normally have a stomach of steel.
I feel like the lack of sleep is what's making me do dumb stuff, so I'm not sure that I believe in pregnancy brain. That being said, I tried to pull through a parking spot last week and went over the concrete divider that was there...
@CaraBoonie I craved McDs at like 6 weeks or so and ate it and was the most sick I've ever been this entire pregnancy! Totally killed off any future cravings.
- Cried at the BabiesRUs registry catalog??! Why? Almost cried today during our tour of the pre-school because one of the napping babies looked so precious. I'm a hormonal nut for sure.

Preggo brain is real, it's awful! I can't remember what I'm doing, or what I need to do, or where we keep things, or anything! I am or normally the go to for my husband and step kids when they want to know where something is, even if it's there's I know where it is... Now I don't even know...
This week it was Thursday and I sat on my bed staring into my closet because I couldn't remember what shirt I wore on Tuesday, and I was super worried because what if the shirt I picked to wear on Thursday was the one I wore on Tuesday? I will never ever know.
Whenever I come home I put on Soffee shorts, they're a brand of fabric shorts with an elastic waistband. So I threw a pair on and looked down cause they felt weird, then I looked at my husband and asked are these on backwards? I took them off and looked and they were on the right way, so I put them back on thinking that they would seem better, and I just looked at my husband and said what's wrong with these things?! They were super long and flat in the front and short in the back! So I kept pulling them up and down and to the side. And my husband just falls on the bed laughing and laughing. And I asked, what's so funny?! He just thought it was so funny that I was panicking. But for real, my butts gotten bigger and my shorts look like they're on backwards!!

I enjoyed your wtf moments, but my curiosity has gotten me, wanting to know what tour you're currently on.
I cried like a baby when I read the book The Duff. Also cried reading a biography of Charlotte Brontè. Cried reading To Kill a Mockingbird..pretty much the whole book. I forget literally everything. My wallet. Where I put some random object, and then swear my husband has done something with it..only to find it and realize I in fact put it under clothes in a basket.
@SisterSunshine Woops didn't see this til today. I tour with Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell. My fiance plays guitar & I do the marketing. Really fun but exhaustingggggggggggg. Back home Monday, leave again Friday. Thankfully home all of August but then gone for the whole month of September, on a tour bus .... wonder how that sleep arrangement is going to work out for me lol ......
