Dear Diary...

With all the hormones, frustrations, and embarrassing moments floating around on the boards, I figure we could start another Dear Diary thread. It'll be good for laughs!

Dear Diary,
This is the third day I've sat on the couch and stared at the box of wrapping paper on the floor. How the hell am I supposed to get down on the wood floor and wrap gifts?! What about the 485 times I will have to pee?
Yesterday I was babysitting my friends 2 kids when I got scared of the loud thunder and farted really loudly in front of the 5 year old and blamed it on her 2 year old sister.

    That is hilarious !
    Dear diary ,
    I am super excited about this baby don't get me wrong but I'm sick of the same old questions from my parents and have nothing new to say back . I'm pretty sure I have a case of RBF but over the phone , I'm trying to sound as excited as I actually am ... Totally doesn't come out that way ! Anyone else have this problem ? Maybe I'm just effing tired ...

    Lurker from the d15 board and omg you ladies gave me a wonderful laugh!!

    Dear diary,
    I know I've been sensitive to chocolate my whole life... But since pregnancy I haven't been able to have a bite. So having a dream where I was eating amazing peanut m&ms only to wake up and realize I was still pregnant and can't have m&ms was a very cruel trick.

    Dear Diary,

    Is it wrong to not want a lot of visitors while in the hospital? I get people are excited and will want to visit but they took it upon themselves to invite themselves. My family I'm excited for them to be there and a couple of friends but what about the unwanted ones. I'm hoping they won't show up. Should I ignore my phone??

    Or, should I just let them come and tell them to bring me awesome food and gifts? :smiley:

    @Aanderson812 Men dont get it! Im also measuring two weeks ahead! Come on boys Id like to see you push this thing out!

    @kiam032 I dont want visitors either. Maybe our parents but thats it. Were at the hospital for 24 hours people. Youve waited 9 months I think you can wait a few extra days.


    Dear Diary,

    Im tired of a lot of things. The constant questioning about how Im feeling. The constant "really, you look tired?" When I said Im good. People saying "wooh you look like your due anyday now". The not bring able to breathe. The sore back. The lack of sleep and not bring able to get comfortable. I just want her out and to feel normal again. Is that too much to ask? And who thought it was a compliment to say "you look pregnant in your face".

    From,

    The miserable pregnant lady who may turn into Ronda Rousey

    Dear Diary,

    Samesies. I get the same text from my dad and MIL almost every single day "how are you feeling?" It's sweet that they care but, I feel pretty much the same as yesterday and trust me if something changes you'll hear about it. Another confession...it annoys me more that my MIL asks than my dad. I'm excited my dad is so excited. I'm annoyed at how pushy my MIL can be and me being pregnant has made it so much worse.

    I lost it on my mom and my mother in law early this pregnancy because I was so sick. They kept asking, and I responded with "I feel terrible, that probably isn't going to change until I have the baby and talking about it doesn't change that!"
    They don't ask anymore lol

    @kmo8986 I had to have a similar conversation with my mom!  She said "I'd call you every day if I could, to see how you're feeling.  I LOVED BEING PREGNANT."  To which I responded "how nice for you but if you call me every day I won't answer because I don't love being pregnant, I feel like crap, and I don't want to talk about it!"  Now she calls once every couple of weeks.  :smile:

    Dear Diary,
    Is it wrong to threaten SO if he doesn't get his ass on the floor to wrap Christmas gifts for the kids? Or is it only wrong since I'm massively pregnant? Because if I could move fast enough, or get my feet high enough off the ground to kick him without losing my balance, I probably would. Also, he'd likely think it was some kind of foreplay. It is not. I just don't want to try to get my big, pregnant butt on the floor, let alone back up once I'm finished.

    Dear diary,
    I'm stuck in this prison called a hospital.
    I can't eat... Can't drink.... Can't sleep...
    Please save me...

    10hrs until I'm moved to labor and delivery. Maybe then I'll get off this baby monitor and actually be able to move around and get some rest.

    Sincerely,
    Unexpected induction.

    juju0592 i dump the laundry baskets out on the bed so I dont have to get down on the floor, works much better!

    Rach8672 I totally feel you! People seem put off by the fact that I don't squeel and attempt cartwheels every time someone asks about baby!

    Aanderson812 My hubs is the same, had a growth u/s this week and baby's head specifically is measuring 2+ weeks ahead. Hubs thinks its hilarious! 

    Dear Diary, 

    All I want for Christmas is a sign to hang on my neck that says "Due date is Jan 28. Yes, it's our first. It's a boy. Yes, we are excited. No, I don't want your advice" So I can avoid annoying conversations with strangers. 

    That sign would be the best ever! Id like to add "yes Im due Jan 21, Im aware I look like Ill go anyday now"

    Love it! When strangers ask me when I'm due I just go ahead and answer all future questions so that way they have nothing to say further. The one thing in going to miss are all the compliments on how good I look! :D I love my pregnant body! Well.. Without the morning sickness, shortness of breath, heartburn, etc

    Dear Diary- can you make my water break in the next day? I'd love to have a natural birth but if this little guy doesn't come soon, he's not going to fit through the birth canal. Measuring 6 weeks ahead at last growth scan. Plus I want to hold him. See him. Bring him home. He would be the best gift I've ever received.

    Dear diary,
    Hubby started walking circles around me and giggling about me having a gravitational pull and him being sucked into orbit.
    My tailbone feels like its broken and my hips hurt, if hubby smacks my ass one more time I'm removing his hands.
    He also makes milking jeatures and cow noises at my boobs.

    Totally with you Jmad. It took us 5 years and IVF treatments to get here. It's been a relatively easy pregnancy but I'm ready to be done. These last few weeks he's put us through quite a bit. Quite a bit of testing because of his size and he failed the biophysical profile testing. I hate the nurses at the BPP testing center so every week I dread going which makes me wish the pregnancy would be over and he'd just be here already.

    Dear Diary,
    I hate asking other people for favors because I am too big to move. I feel like a whale out of water. I cry when those sad dog and cat ASPCA commercials come on TV. I pee way too much to be considered normal and drink an insane amount of water yet I remain thirsty. I'm sorry for being overly sarcastic to my husband because he does try his best to make me smile.
    I'm also confused because I'll be sick and throwing up in the morning and a fee hours later I'll be famished.
    Signed,
    I blame my hormones.

    Dear Diary,

    I'm starting to get a bit uncomfortable at times, but I still enjoy being pregnant.  Don't get me wrong, I want to meet my little man...but feeling him move is still just super cool!  :)
