I'm actually a little sorry that my nausea is going away. I really liked just eating whatever junk I wanted using the excuse that, "I feel like crap and this is the only thing that sounds good."
Now that I feel better, I need to start making healthier choices, and I'm a little bummed about that.
I've eaten all my snacks by 10am today and am seriously considering eating up my lunch now at 10:30am. Yes, this belly is totally all baby.....
I need to get my laundry habits under control before too much longer. I wash my clothes but can't handle putting them away. I have piles of clothes on my dresser and window table. Like 2-3 foot mounds so you can't put anything else there.
I have this horrible cough/sore throat. With lots of phlegm I've gone from using tissue to just using receiving blankets to hack up on and sneeze on. It's just more convenient. Plus these small receiving blankets don't get used.
I haven't thoroughly brushed my teeth in about 3 months because it makes me throw up. I do as best I can until I barf, and then I finish with mouthwash. My dentist is going to kill me.
I got laid off about a month ago. We don't really need my income but it's always fun to have extra money. I don't really want to work so I've applied for some jobs and had an interview or 2 but nothing's come of it and I don't really care. Soon I'll be too pregnant for anyone to want to hire me.
I think other boards use the search function so they're not crowded with the same old topics that we frequently see on ours. Ha! I do enjoy lurking July's every now and then for fresh set of topics.

If it makes you feel any better, this was me up until about week 13 or so. I had a cleaning during that time and my dentist was totally understanding and said my teeth still looked pretty good for what was happening. Her recommendations were switching to a new toothpaste, trying kiddie toothpaste, or just brushing without toothpaste. Whatever you have to do to get the job done.
@jamiesc58 I do this with cooking, especially chicken. I've told him I can't touch raw chicken because it makes me gag. This was true a few weeks ago, but I'm keeping it up because I hate cooking!
I'm also sick of the repetitive threads, however the search function doesn't work all that well! Sometimes I'll "search Aug 2016" for a thread that I know I've seen on the board and get a bunch of results from other months and even years. So then I'll try some alternate wording or spelling options and still get random results.
I agree we should encourage people to run a quick search before posting, but it's unreasonable to expect them to do a bunch of research before they can ask a question.
I'm a stay-at-home wife and am usually on my A-game in terms of cooking dinner. We've eaten take out for pretty much every lunch/dinner for the last month because I'm so damn exhausted ALL the time.
@Snaps816 What baffles me is when there are different threads about the same damn thing on the same fking page or one page over. Did they even try to scan through the board?
Also, check your search function setting. Maybe you have "Search Archived" box checked but mine looks like this and when I typed in "3D Ultrasound" all I got were posts from August 2016 board, all 16 results of them.
Ok not exactly a confession but a rant. The other day my mil thought it's appropriate to rub my belly coming from behind me. I know she meant well. But I think I made that "face" and hope she understands that it makes me uncomfortable! !! Seriously only one allowed to touch my belly is my DH.. everyone else has to ASK!!!! I asked DH to clarify things with her!!
This morning I pretended to need to come in to work late because I wasn't feeling well, but I really just wanted to watch last night's episode of top chef that I had recorded.

I waited until 11 for lunch and then had two snack size bags of Cheetos at 12:30. It was great until the end of the second bag.
Our board might be more interesting if we had some GTKY posts or when people saw interesting topic ideas they posted them here. Anyone like any of these GTKY ideas? Who is your celebrity doppelganger? How did you and SO meet? Your favorite vacation of all time? Wedding dresses--what you'd like or had (pics). What's your favorite movie? What's your dream home (pics)? Celebrity crush? What's your craziest college experience?
I love @ramoseecology 's idea. I just started a GTKY thread. Your suggestions are great--I just didn't want to steal any in case you wanted to start your own threads. I still feel kind of aloof/disconnected, and I would like to form closer connections with everyone.
This is my first week of no work, and I've pretty much worn pajamas all week.
^ this! The plan was always for me to be a stay-at-home mom. I got a job right before finding out I was pregnant in November. It ended up not being a good fit and I left it in mid-January. I pretty much wear PJ's all day every day - unless I have to go out for something.
I I was going to put this on randoms, idk where it fits. I am so frustrated with my dog. Since I hit about 13 weeks he has been so far up my ass. I will try to play with the other dog and he will come and try to cuddle with me.

Atta girl! Good practice for becoming a SAHM... I pretty much wear yoga pants all the time. Putting on "real pants" is for special occasions, lol. I'm sure my husband is thrilled with it.
You ladies make me feel so much better! I have some of the exact same confessions: I haven't put up my laundry since I got pregnant. I wash and dry them then the piles of clean clothes keep growing. DH isn't very happy with me. Also, most nights I'm unable to brush my teeth and just use mouthwash. I haven't flossed in a long time. Just too nauseous and tired. I had a dentist appointment scheduled but had to reschedule because I was worried about throwing up on the hygenist. Also, I've been eating out at restaurants or getting takeout three times as much as before I got pregnant because I keep giving in to my cravings. My belly grows every week and I sill can't tell if it's the baby or the weight I've gained. Also, I can't remember the last time I swept the house...
Oh! I have another one. I haven't worn makeup to work in over a month. My nausea comes at night and I'm too nauseous and tired to wash my face when I get home from work. I told myself I'd start wearing makeup again when I reach the second trimester, but that didn't happen.
Re: FFFC
I snissed the other day. I have always prided myself on my bladder abilities. It hurt my pride.
