I have to change our bed sheets quite often because every time I wake up I am absolutely drenched in sweat! This has happened throughout this pregnancy! It's nasty.
I can't remember the last time I put lotion on my legs and feet. It's just too hard at this point. If I'm not getting my bi weekly pedicures or if DH isn't home to help----the *ash* is real.
I have been going on and on about my dessert craving the past couple days. A girl i'm close with at work and her mom brought a whole tray of cookies just so I could have my sweet tooth crave finally. (Still didn't buy anything on the way home last night bc I was too tired to deal with the store). Anyways, I ate 2 this morning for breakfast...about to grab another one after lunch!!
Sibling fights will be the death of me if I have to hear them holler at each other one more time; rather than parenting today (I'm too tired for all that) in hiding in the baby nursery..
I did some crazy good "maintenance work" during my shower for my dr appt yesterday. Then I realized that I had no reason to even take my pants off... A small part of me was a little sad I did all that work and no one would benefit from it. I made my husband tell me I did a good job... He was a good sport.
I pack my own lunch every day, and every day when it's lunchtime I'm disappointed in what I have. I guess I'm expecting the lunch fairy to magically improve upon what I brought? This happens every day. And it's sad.
My boyfriend is kind of a picky eater. Sometimes when I cook I don't tell him about certain ingredients I've added because I don't think he'd eat it if he knew.
Also, although I am not due until the 20th, I can't help but feel jealous of all these women in my area who are having their babies before me. I obviously want my daughter to come when she's ready and would never try to put myself in labor, but there's still a part of me that can't help but want her here asap, damnit!!
I'm starting to become self concious of my lack of baby skills. Im almost 26 and have never changed a diaper, dressed a baby, burped a baby..ive probably only held like 5 newborns in my life! Its going to be a learning experience for both of us! Lol
I told work I had a dr appointment so I could sleep in. The motivation to be at work has left completely. I still haven't gotten ready and it's a 25 minute drive NOT during lunch hour.
I keep having stress dreams about breastfeeding. It's making me anxious that even though I so badly want to do it, I will end up having issues with it and quitting.
DH will be out of town all weekend working on a freelance (for fun) project, which means I'll be alone with the baby. Since having her, I've been walking around in sweats and no make up. Today, I did my hair, make up, and put my prepregnancy clothes on. We're meeting him for lunch and I want him to regret leaving
I think we need to start having FFFC on Tuesday or something. Every week I think of something good and every week by Friday....it is gone. No clue what it was.
My hubby, while an attentive and loving father, does not take his role as a "parent" very seriously. He rarely, if ever, has to sacrifice anything he wants to do because he has to take care of DD. This week, I scheduled myself a massage to help my aching body and put him on Dad Duty - which he was fine with. After my massage? I got a coffee and sat in my car and read a book for a half hour before heading home. I wasn't ready to take back on "mom" duty just yet, and figured an extra half hour wouldn't hurt him!
I'm having a really hard time with a certain situtation going on in my life right now. It's about the birth, the who, the what, the when, and who the fuck is anyone to make a plan for me... I keep pretending I agree because it really hurts my feelings and I don't want to cry in front of SO who is only trying to help.
×2 I've been talking to my dad every single day for hours, about absolutely nothing. He lives in MI and I live in NV so we can't see eachother and he's my bestfriend and I just can't get enough of his thoughts and crazy spurts of laughter. (My dad officially hates cats and trys to make the one he watches for his biking buddy miserable.)
x3 I let the dogs roll all over our rugs and run all over the house when SO isn't home and then I hurry to vacuum and sweep and mop so he'll never know! I even pay off the 10yo to not tell!!!
1) All those posts yesterday about people being uneducated about what actually happens during pregnancy made me wonder if I had any of those silly ideas. I kind of do.
Now that I'm sooooo close, I'm scared to bend in half, "squish" my belly, and cause my water to break. Do I really think this will happen? No. Is it still in the back of my mind every time I try to put shoes on? Yep.
2) Every time I see a post about wanting little one to be here already I, like most of us, roll my eyes and tsk tsk the poster.
I now find myself wanting this kid OUT OF ME! I'm over it, done, let's get this show on the road. When she's ready of course ....if that was NOW that'd be great though!
A few days ago I was stuck on a level of candy crush because I didn't understand where I needed the cherries to fall. I googled help for that level and actually watched a tutorial on that specific level cause I have nothing better or more productive to do with my free time. I ended up beating the level on the first try after that.

Last night I may or may not have accidentally peed just a little bit while I was in the bathtub and then pretended that nothing happened and continued with my bath. The bladder control struggle is real, y'all.
I am in no rush for my DD to get here. I'm excited about meeting the baby and I know I will love her more than anything else in the world but I am sad that life as I know it is about to end. Oh and i am dreading breastfeeding. If money wasn't an issue I would be a formula momma.

Third time mom here, not sure if I just started believing it because I told the kids so many times, rather than explaining or if I just never cared to find out? The umbilical cord connects my belly button and the baby's belly button right?!(hides face in shame)
My dad bought a box of buster bars on Monday and brought then to our house and then left them here. I may have eaten half the box myself this week..... if baby girl doesn't come soon I may just gain another 10lbs in the next two weeks waiting for her...

I've been eating far more than normal all week at lunchtime. I just all the sudden get ravenously hungry. Yesterday I had a pack of crackers at work before heading out to the sub shop, where I inhaled a sub and bag of chips. Then I went to the grocery and bought a pack of cookies (totally unlike me) and had some of those.
I felt so possessive of the cookies and didn't want to share with my husband, so I put them in the pantry instead of leaving them on the counter. He never noticed. I'm now going to leave work early so I can beat him home and eat a few more before I tell him they were just some leftovers from work...
I'm starting to become self concious of my lack of baby skills. Im almost 26 and have never changed a diaper, dressed a baby, burped a baby..ive probably only held like 5 newborns in my life! Its going to be a learning experience for both of us! Lol
Im 25. Ive held 1 newborn, my cousin about 15 years ago. Ive changed pull ups but not diapers when my DSD was younger. I am completely with you!! When I was about 16 I used to tell people I would never change a diaper ever because I would just put puppy pads around my whole house and just pick them up when baby used one. I was always joking of course, but I still work with many of these people so they love bringing it up now that Im having a LO. Itll be an interesting journey to say the least. Lol
After reading the post about how long to wait to have sex I am thinking my poor dear husband got the short end of the stick. All of these ladies going for it after 6 weeks when their doctor cleared them... Not happening here. My DH is going to have to wait until I'm in the mood (and if I go by previous pregnancies that wil be anywhere from 3-6 months after baby gets here). And I don't feel the least bit guilty. This will be the third kid who will inevitably wreck my vagina. He can take care of business on his own for three months (or longer). Sorry, not sorry. Also, having sex two days after giving birth? Um. No. To quote the great Nancy Botwin "it would be like throwing a hot dog down a hallway..."
I've always been terrible with kids. I rarely babysat, and I always hated it. I honestly never really liked other people's kids, but I was always dying for my own. :-SS

I was the same way. I sort of still am that way about OPC (Other Peoples' Children) depending on how they behave. I really like my child but when it comes to others I just tolerate.

Having your own kid will not make you like other peoples kids, actually I have become pretty much anti-kid (I'm horrible I know) since becoming a mom and I used to love all kids!
I informed my husband that the pile of clean laundry on the floor will probably not be put away in its entirety any time before Christmas. It's sorted by person but I'm over the whole bending over, hanging, hauling to the closet thing. If it bothers him he can do it, but luckily he doesn't care. This is my FFC because I'm a SAHM and already have a cleaning lady come every two weeks so I'm, like, the laziest homemaker ever. I'm also about done cooking for this pregnancy... I'll say it for the sanctimommies: WHAT DOES SHE EVEN DO ALL DAY?!

They are from Dairy Queen. Basically DQ ice ream on a stick with a layer of chocolate and peanuts then dipped in chocolate. So good!

I turn THIRTY (gulp) on Monday. The youngest human I've ever interacted with was DH's 10 m/o cousin for about half an hour. Never touched a diaper. Never dressed/held/burped/bathed a damn thing. It'll be an adventure!!!!

I was 24 when I had DD1 and had zero baby experience. I had to ask the nurse to show me how to put a diaper on my own friggin kid. Why did they even let me out of the hospital with her?! You learn fast.
I "ran away" for a few hours today and left my 10 & 11yr olds home while I went to get a mani/pedi and massage. Yes, I'm on bed rest. Yes, they were driving me nuts and I honestly believe leaving was wayyyy more relaxing than staying home in bed!!
Also, I've convinced my 10yr old to cook supper tonight. And have used my dog sleeping on my lap as an excuse why. Lol

I took a shower Sunday and then neglected it till Wednesday night.... I went to take a shower cause I didn't know if my midwife was giving me an exam at my appt and I couldn't. My boyfriend decided to seal the tub and I couldn't shower for 36 hours so I had to sponge bathe! I will never go so long without showering again....
i went to my mom's house and my little brothers were making me laugh so hard, i peed a little---only problem, i was sitting on my mom's couch i didn't tell her, i was too embarrassed...
