Yup, the pregnancy headaches are killer... I went to bed with one hoping that some sleep would cure it, but woke up at 4 am and it felt like my brain was attempting to escape my skull with a sledgehammer. I caved and took some Tylenol and had to sleep with about 5 pillows b/c it hurt to even lay down. So not a happy camper right now as it's still there and I'm trying my best to human today.
@PinkLady2015 I have actually started having to take preemptive Tylenol just before I go to bed, otherwise I will wake up with a terrible headache at 3:45. It's ridiculous.
I am so OVER going to work. I have registries to work on, a house to clean, and naps to take. Can't wait to give my notice in June!
I'm counting down as well.
I'm having a super hard time today... I had an appointment at the eye doctor at 8:00, was supposed to go to work after and said I'd be there by 10:00. Well, they said I was due to have my eyes dilated again, and while I totally could have refused I happily took the excuse to not be able to go into work until after lunch. Now I'm laying here in bed trying to think of a good excuse to just not go in at all, but I haven't come up with one yet. Plus I have Thursday off for my animals' vet appointments. DH keeps telling me he's proud of me for sticking it out there, because I work with some crazies, but we can't really afford for me to quit until the end of June.
This is exactly what is going on with us as well. I've been told I have to stick it out to take all the benefits that are owed to me. I just want the satisfaction of giving them a five minuet notice.
This app...am I the only one who has lost the "love it" and "reply" options? It doesn't keep my place anymore or show me when there are new posts on a thread I'm following. I've contacted TB and they don't know the cause. Logged in and out many times, deleted and freshly downloaded the app. *sigh* I almost never use an actual computer, so the frustration continues.
That happens to me and it looks like I'm logged in from the account section, but really it's not being logged in. I've found logging out and logging back in usually works. When it doesn't, I log out, delete the app, reinstall it, and then log in. Stupid glitches but this seems to work.
Happens to me every single day. I very rarely post using the app because of this, so I'm mostly silent on weekends. Then I spend most of my Monday trying to catch up on everything. It's SUPER annoying, wish they'd find a fix for it!
Placenta Previa can f*ck off. 6 weeks pelvic rest (to start) and no lifting anything over 10 lbs. Obviously, I will do whatever needs to be done to keep baby healthy... but staring down the barrel of 6+ months of no sex makes me sad!
Also - I started breaking out this weekend. Where is the glow I was promised? I want the glow!

@thebigoaktree I'm only staying for the benefits, personally. Well that and we want to try to pay off our small debts before the LO comes. I would totally push harder about quitting early if DH and I didn't have completely separate types of insurance (his is Kaiser, mine is Providence, so I'd have to completely switch everything if I lost mine).
This is the pettiest I will ever be (today, anyway) but one of my closest friends just told me she was pregnant. I'm not mad she's pregnant- that's great for her- but I'm kind of irritated she told three other co-workers before telling me. And she sat on it all weekend and never said a word! I was like fifth in line to tell! And I'm the one who got her the damn job!
Also I'm kind of sad I won't be the only pregnant person at work. I just got the bosses parking spot too- since it's icy they didn't want me walking across a icy snowy parking lot.
And I'm a little bit gleeful inside at what she's in for because she hates needles, blood, pain, and lives off wine and coffee. heh.
One more on the topic of my repulsive pregnant body: all of a sudden today I have a skin tag growing out of my nipple. What the actual fuck?! I'm thinking of taking nail clippers to it and screaming for a sec because I just can't. And DH shall never see this!

Never as bad as the skin tag I developed smack dab in the middle of my fucking forehead. People tried to brush it off as dirt or whatever until I had to awkwardly explain what it was. Then my husband would call me a unicorn. It's gone now, thank GOD.

Yes, me too! Logging out/in doesn't help and neither does a clean download. I just use the browser on my phone now because I'm done with the app.

I'm pissed I ordered dominos at 1230 and they waited for me to call an hour later to tell me it was the wrong one. I called the right one, and they wouldn't have a driver for another 45-60min. I said fuck it, I didn't take my Pepcid and nexium for nothing. It's now 310. Can't a girl just get a medium thin crust Hawaiian pizza to polish off before her husband and daughter get home and start asking questions?!

Sort of on this note of repulsiveness, my bitch is PREGNANCY ACNE. I guess I had this last time as well, but forgot how bad it could be. I have craters on my face like a teenager.
I just got some Belli face wash and spot treatment last week and been using it religiously so hoping it kicks in soon. I am disgusted looking in the mirror. My makeup isn't covering up the two biggest ones on my chin

Husbands have no idea the things that we keep from them for their own protection. In 2008, I had breast reduction surgery and for whatever reason, this little black hair kept growing in the same spot after all was healed. It STILL grows to this day. I pluck it frequently but I'm losing the battle. One day, my husband barges in the bathroom after I've taken a shower and there I am, plucking my little black hair from my boob. He was MORTIFIED! I was like, "Come on, man. I've been plucking this thing since '08. Get over it." He refused to acknowledge it ever happened. I still laugh about it now.
My bitchfest: same parent who wanted me to give her kid back points for plagiarism is now stalking me for the second time. This time she wants her kids grade changed because she tried really hard. Get a hobby lady!!

Im finally on his insurance but doing the same, I have a credit card I need to pay off because of the wedding but I swear if I didn't have that he couldn't tell me no. I do hate to admit that he's right and I do need to stick it out but as soon as he told me I could be at home, I miss so many days.
The in laws are planning a visit to our area for BILs wedding and are already driving me up the wall. They are coming at the most inconvenient time and act as if we are inviting them and owe them everything. I said they could stay a whole week and I know we are going to be blamed for not wanting to host them longer. DH works 12 hr days during the winter and I will be expected to cook for them and entertain etc. No! One week max!

Are you sure it's not a swollen gland? I just noticed I have a few yesterday right next to my nipple. I remember this happening with DS too.
ETA I cringe every time I think of taking clippers anywhere near my nipple. OW!

I have swollen glands too and blackheads filling the newly stretched and bigger pores... This is definitely a semi-long, skinny skin tag. I'm going to call the midwife for suggestions before doing impromptu nail clipper surgery, but we need a thread called "The outrageously attractive pregnant body" because it's all just too much.

I agree on the new thread. I hope she gives you an easier solution!
I work 10 hour days and I am sick of it. I would like to have a life outside of work. My nanny kids were pure hell this morning. I don't know if they woke up on the wrong side of the bed or what, but they were off the charts, whiney, grumpy, fighting, etc. I normally only let them take a two hour nap. But today, I put them down at 11:30am, and it is now 4:30pm and they are still sleeping. No regrets. Maybe they will be in a better mood when I go up there and wake them up.

Mine really isn't a bitch today. More of a depressed ramble. I've been really down the last couple weeks and it's just getting worse. H isn't excited about this pregnancy at all. Not to overshare but we have been having alot of marital drama and it's led to him really not showing an interest in the baby at all or even really acting like I'm pregnant. Today we got "definitive proof" that he has nothing to worry about with the baby (veeeeery long story) and when I asked if it made him happier he just said he wasn't happier and went and sat with his dad in his dad's room for a long time ignoring me. So my bitch is that I may need to lay off the boards for awhile because everytime I see a post about someone's so being happy or excited or doing something sweet it feels like a stab to the heart. I just really hate how this pregnancy is going emotionally and can only hope it gets better.
I need a day off (SAHM problems) my fuse is short and I feel awful which makes me feel like a crappier mom. My bitch is just at me today:(
Me too! Sometimes I'm jealous of the people that work outside the home. They get breaks from their kids and I don't. I know I should be grateful to be able to stay home, but it's been a tough couple days.
I'm over being an adult. I hate working, I don't want to come home and clean and cook. I'm about to lose my shit trying to research daycares. I just can't today.

Aww girl I'm sorry. DH isn't thrilled about this pregnancy either. This is our third and he made it very clear to me he was done. So when I got pregnant he was pissed. He didn't want to tell anyone. We don't talk about it. He's only gone to one ultrasound,not even a doc appointment. When I told him it was a girl he asked if I thought it would grow a penis by my 20th week. I try not to talk about it around him and give him space. He's a great dad but I know he's overwhelmed right now. I'm a SAHM and he's stressed about work and our bills, plus the space in our apt and how are we going to afford another one. Anyways, I said all that to let you know your not alone. I hope that when your baby comes you DH will change his tune and fall in love with that precious baby. It might be hard for him to connect with the baby until s/he is here. Just take a deep breath and watch some trashy tv and have some alone time.
@elenabrent - I had terrible sciatic pain in my 4th month with DD. I started prenatal yoga and got a prescription for prenatal massage. Thankfully the pain only lasted a couple of weeks and not the whole pregnancy. I hope your pain goes away soon!
