FFFC

VexedMommy · August 2015

3:30 in the morning. Not a soul in sight. City's looking like a ghost town on this moonless summer night.

Anywho. It's early but I've already got a confession. I hate it when the bump admins ride to the rescue and stop a thread before I've had a chance to have my say. Especially when I've tried really hard to be nice in the past and someone finally adds the straw that breaks the back.

HellsAngel22 · August 2015

I hate it when people feel the need to post multiple threads that are clearly AW. Drives me insane.
Is it because them people are not getting enough attention at home?

JLW0504 · August 2015

I ate a Nutty Bar and 2 cookies yesterday in one sitting. I have GD and know it was bad but my day was horrible and I didn't get any support from the supervisors.

Also, I'm skipping most of DH'S family party on Sunday to finish up Ellie's big girl room. I love his family but they're a little snobby and with my hormones, I won't be able to stop myself saying something mean.

TacoSarah · August 2015

I worked from home yesterday between medical appointments. And by worked from home, I mean I went to the shopping mall and got a coffee and looked a baby clothes and in the afternoon I took a 2 hour nap.

kwaldy · August 2015

By Friday I usually just stop having the motivation to put on makeup before work in the morning. So I usually put it on during my lunch break. Lol.

Also, I've stopped being able to control my face when someone says or does something stupid and it's probably going to get me in trouble here soon...

lakesideknitter · August 2015

What happened to the team green/pink/blue threads? How long have they been gone?
My confession: I'm so not looking forward to DH's class reunion tomorrow. He's from a very small town (where we now live), so his graduating class only had 70 people. I've met some of them, but I know I'll have to meet a ton of new people, and I'm almost certain I'll be one of the only pregnant people (if not the only one) as they are in the 38-39 age range and people here start families very young. I know there will be unannounced belly touches, and instead of getting to know me, people will be asking about baby and pregnancy. Just because I'm pregnant doesn't mean I'm not a person anymore!! Probably going to use the pregnant/tired card to try to go home early.

thegingeravenger · August 2015

This is my first Friday off in a while (after working six days a week for almost the entire summer) so I plan on being gloriously lazy.

Also, my mind goes weird places when I read the term "swamp crotch". I'm a FSU fan, but I live in gator country. So when I read it I automatically think of some sort of gator themed vajazzling.

dapoint23 · August 2015

My MIL, who is a psychotic ball of nervous energy who shoots my anxiety through the roof, has told me she's going to come "help" me out with DS when New Baby comes.... shes not allowed to watch our kids on her own and she doesn't work bc she's never been able to keep a job and I'll be doing the SAHM thing for a year.... I'm already preparing my list of reasons why "today doesn't work"

grapesoda1111 · August 2015

So I went to this consignment thing yesterday, huge deal. Tons of stuff. Didn't buy much cause today is the 50% off day. It was dead yesterday and now I'm fuckin waiting in a huge ass line. Greedy people with screaming kids, out of my way!

Ceridwen77 · August 2015

Every day my MIL finds another thing to say that's just ever so slightly passive aggressive and really none of her business. Also I have friends coming in from out of town to stay with us. I should be excited but I'm dreading it.

rachswi · August 2015

Since I'm not returning to teaching this year, I've gotten on the list at my old school and the school near where I live to be a substitute teacher until baby comes. It was a whole bunch of hoops to jump through and I'm sitting here hoping no one needs a sub until at least the beginning of September

Soyyoyary · August 2015

I covered someone shift last night. As I getting in my van I don't know how but I missed my step and fell on my side twisted my ankle.. Didn't hit belly everything is perfectly fine I feel him nothing to worry about but my sweet phone fell and screen is cracked!!

Oh no! Your other baby!

Seriously... I always feel like an idiot when I do something to my phone... when I was 9 weeks pregnant, I dropped my brand new iphone in the toilet (thankfully I hadn't actually used the toilet yet)... it was fine after 24 hours in rice but I felt like such an idiot. This is the second iphone I've dropped in the toilet... the first didn't make it and had to be replaced. Fortunately I called Apple like 4 times because I couldn't make up my mind about how I wanted to go about getting a new phone and they apologized that I had to call so many times and sent me a new one for free. WIN.

I am going to eat this cake, then bring home lunch for my H and kids. The whole while pretending I haven't eaten yet.

I "gave up" refined sugar this week because of lots of talk of ginormous babies being born. Made it 4 days and then had a giant glazed cinnamon roll after my drs appointment this morning. It was glorious.

Everything in moderation. An occasional giant glazed cinnamon roll is moderation in my book. (Unless of course you have a reason to moderate further like GD, Celiacs, or allergies.)

rachswi · August 2015

For those of you that want to make peanut butter frosting, my mom taught me how to make home made... not totally sure how much this makes... you'll probably want to double/triple it for a cake (I use it to make peanut butter fingers... oatmeal cookie cake base with melted chocolate chips and peanut butter frosting swirled together on top... My FAVORITE cookie).

Anywho, to make PB frosting, mix together:

1-1/2 C. Powdered sugar

2-4 T Peanut Butter

2-4 T Milk (to taste and desired consistency)

Squirtgun · August 2015

I lurk on the other bump boards all the time, and don't post anything at all. Sometimes I just want some drama to entertain me while daughter is napping...

KeHill08 · August 2015

My confession is I can't stand when I see posts on Facebook about "why should I have to press one for English?" The US is probably one of the only countries where it is not a given that you learn at least a second language. We are only hurting ourselves, and honestly I think we should be ashamed for having such an egocentric and entitled mindset. I understand learning another language isn't easy, so if it isn't easy for us, what makes us think learning English (one of the hardest to learn as a second language!) is easy for non-Enlgish speakers? Yeah, I think we can handle having to push a button...

My wonderful husband provides us with an organic meal plan during the week filled with vegetables, beautiful seasoning, and proper portions.

I'm having a shit day stuck in bed and I'm about 5 seconds away from ordering a pizza.

Clearly you need to order it and eat ALL of it to destroy the evidence

Do it!! It's Friday your little girl deserves it and so do you.

mamavbs · August 2015

@thefithuntress I will order myself a Chinese and a small pizza... Just to make you feel better about your pizza. I'm nice and supportive like that.

You enjoy it girl!!!

Girl, you need to get on this, stat! As pp's have mentioned, make sure to destroy all evidence. It doesn't count in that case.

Grains in the crust, tomato in the sauce, calcium in the cheese... depending on the toppings, protein in the sausage or pepperoni, veggies...

I'm not really seeing anything wrong with it ;-)

Elyse1384 · August 2015

I love FFFC, but I'm going rogue today and posting an AW FFC (Fabulous Friday Confession)! The last couple of weeks have been less than great. DS and I have both been sick with a nasty virus (poor guy developed an ear infection from it). DH got in a car accident. Got some bad news home repairs this week. This list goes on and on. Well today the smallest thing turned it all around.

DS is my world, but he is a little crazy train 17 month old. Empathy... what is that? Gentle touching... no thanks, but how about some pinching, wresting and kicking. Cuddling... Ain't nobody got time for that! Well this morning was an unexpected surprise. DH plopped DS down in the bed next to me as he proceeded to get ready for work. I was half awake after a sleepless night spent NOT breathing through my nose and hacking up a lung for the 15th night in a row. Then I felt this delicate little hand start rubbing my back. I turn slightly to see DS grinning at me. He says "Hi!" and proceeds to snuggle up next to me for a few minutes. Oh my heart!

lindenmr · August 2015

@thefithuntress my doctor told me i can't gain any more weight (up roughly 35 pounds with 3 months left HA this baby isn't gettin any smaller!) and i just ordered a warm chocolate chip cookie and a tall vanilla bean from starbucks...

eat some pizza for me too please? thanks.

The doctors/nurses I've seen (my office rotates so that you have a bit of a rapport with everybody) have ALL been on me about my weight since 20w, at which point I had gained a total of eight pounds. I had gained 18 at 28w, and I have my 30w on Monday. Dreading it...

That's so crazy! Tell your doctors what I gained and maybe they won't say anything to you haha Don't get me wrong.. I completely understand that healthier choices can be made and that it's great to stay active, for both me and my baby.. I went a little crazy around 24 weeks with ice cream and chocolate, but I've toned it down

I just keep thinking.. we're pregnant.. our bodies are going to gain what they need to gain.. and if i want an effing cookie every once in a while, i'm going to eat an effing cookie!

laswett · August 2015

I got the call I failed my one hour today, and I cried for 30 minutes in front of my class while they worked. To be fair, work stress was already at 100%, I've never had any health problems, and now I have to figure out how to take a day off with 100 things to do at work. And I'm also afraid to eat anything now.

dogsombrero · August 2015

DS got his chubby leg caught in the crib yesterday. It was so bad that I had to run to grab the Pam spray and work him loose, he's got a pretty good bruise but he's fine. The FFFC is I found it way funnier than I should've. He was squealing like a stuck pig and I had to grease him up definitely a laugh or cry hysterically moment- good thing my sense of humor is warped.

I have gained 32 pounds, and my dr told me to watch it. But im with you, there is absolutely nothing I can do to stop the weight gain with a baby growing inside of me and gaining a half a pound a week himself. Yea sure I can have a carrot instead of a cookie but you know what, I chased after 3 little ones all day and the one inside of me makes me feel like crap most of the time, so I'm gonna eat that cookie and enjoy it too. Ill worry about my weight in January. ( probably not a great attitude but my headache is making me cry and every time I think about my weight I cry too )

Don't be afraid of food. Eat a protein, some veggies and a small portion of carbs at each meal until your three hour results and you can meet with a dietician.

pink*sheep · August 2015

Ok, my husband's cousin's wife (I know...) posts pictures of her teen daughter and her friends on FB, all hoochied out (they're 14), and I can't help but think of Amy Poehler's character on mean girls...it's everything I can muster to not post memes from the movie as comments! C'mon internet stranger danger alert! At least privatize your settings woman!

RaisingJulian · August 2015

I turned into a teenager today. A girl tried walking in front of my car without looking and had the nerve to say "dang going 55 and sh*t" so me being pregnant and tired and annoyed stopped my car and yelled "I'm going 10 b***ch!!" And left her dumbfounded cuz I'm sure she thought I didn't hear her. I drove away and after I calmed down could not believe myself for letting that bother me. I probably should have been going slower then 10 I'll admit but she came out from behind an SUV and didn't look so I was mad.

Edited because btw to clarify I was no where near hitting her in any way, shape, or form.

rachswi · August 2015

I'm unashamedly bumming it as long as possible today before I have to get ready for a wedding this afternoon. Not doing my hair/makeup or putting on real clothes until absolutely necessary. Feeling like a beached whale this morning and I'm just gonna embrace it.

Although I should probably at least put deodorant on.

nmwheel1 · August 2015

I'm late to the party, but yesterday we went to the mall and brought our own sandwiches for lunch and peaches to be healthy... I also bought a regular sized double cheese and bacon poutine to go along with this... Oops! I'm Canadian and I'm not sure if everyone knows what poutine is? It's traditional fries with cheese curds and gravy... The one I had was fries with cheese curds, cheese sauce, bacon and green onions and it was amazing! I've been really good with healthy eating lately so I deserved every bite of that poutine!
