    Does anyone watch Donnie Loves Jenny?  I think that's what it's called.  Donnie Walburg & Jenny McCarthy.  My husband was watching it the other night and I have some comments...
  • I was too gunshy to join the FB group back in like September, back when the pee wasn't dry on my test and everyone on here was racing to share all their personal info with all the internet catfish and I wasn't there yet. But now I'm curious, how is that going? Any creepers chased off? Is it full of drama? With my first BMB, this was about the time we created a FB group and a couple of admins run it and they only accepted BMB regulars who had been contributing and so they were able to filter out creepy lurkers and MUD for the most part. I'm interested in joining one after 7 months of getting to know quite a few of you regs but I am a little cautious after it was started so early ...

    Worst pregnancy related pain... INGROWN HAIRS!!! GEEEESSSSSSS this is killing me. Because I cant see anything down low, I either missed some spots, or just didn't care. Now I have a bump the size of Texas on my bikini line, and the pain of it rubbing on underwear when I walk is making me walk like Frankenstein. This is worse than morning sickness and insomnia. A freaking ingrown hair!
    actually asked my waxing lady if I had any at my last wax because I can't see down there anymore!! Hopefully yours will just go away on its own and doesn't need what I like to call "microsurgery for hair extraction"...or you might have to get your hubby involved!

    I had this a few weeks ago, right at the top! Only noticed it because I wore running tights, and thought I was sore from where the string was knotted in front. Felt around looking for an indent and discovered a massive irritated cyst! I'm guessing it was an ingrown hair because of the location, but honestly I have no idea, because yeah. Visibility was extremely limited and mirror-dependent.

    Now that I'm all caught up on this thread, I wanted to wish everyone a very safe few weeks left! I know I'm getting anxious and it's getting very hard to breathe when I lay down, so I'm hoping someone can relate? MH and I are moving into our new home and I haven't gotten the nursery ready yet so I'm starting to worry. The 3rd trimester tiredness is a killer though so I will see how much I get done. I certainly don't know when to stop even though I know I'm tired. 

    I'm in your boat. DH and I move into our new home this weekend (hopefully, it's already been delayed once) so we haven't started on our baby's room yet either!
    Glad I am not alone @AdorkablePixie!! We just got some of our boxes moved over but there's still lots left to pack! I hope to get that done this week so we can officially be out of here and into our own space. The nursery will come along thereafter. Are you stressing out about it? 

    Oh yes, I am stressing. DH keeps telling me not to, but it's a little hard. How about you? How's everything going. I have the unrealistic expectation that we will both get everything moved to our house this weekend AND get it all unpacked and set up (aside from the baby's room).
    @AdorkablePixie that is my unrealistic expectation as well. MH is getting the nursery items today (crib, bassinet, dresser etc) so I am happy it is getting done while I am packing the rest of our stuff. I don't like living in limbo (we are at my in laws until we move) and now I just want my own space.

    SO OVER IT!! I am tired of being tired all the time!
  • I keep researching BFAR and the definition of insanity is playing in my head: The act of doing the same thing over and over expecting different results each time. It's a hurry up and wait game at this point and I'm not being patient.

    How does she change her hair from pink to blonde to pink so often? ? Also how could she go get a license with his last name on it if she didnt change her name with social security?
  • Is it just me or do the newborn sized clothes just look so damn small like doll clothes? As a FTM I cannot even imagine a person so small fitting into these clothes, its freaking me out. I think reality is setting in that a tiny person is coming out soon.

    this freaks me out too! I should save this for UO Thur but I kind of hope my baby is BIG, like 8+lbs and doesn't seem so tiny and fragile. Wouldn't mind starting him in the 0-3 clothes :#

    Last August, my friend had preemie boy/girl twins, and the girl actually wore doll clothes because she was so small.

    @RSaini We are at my in laws right now too! I don't mind visiting them but it's a little overwhelming with our dogs and our cat here too. I think we will both be happy when we are settled in our house!

    Seriously! They seem crazy small to me, too! I'm not convinced they're actually made for real human babies.

    I'm a STM and I still can't believe it!  And then I look at DD and marvel that she ever was that tiny.

    This. I keep thinking, "I hope LO isn't a giant because we have so many NB clothes."

    Ugh. Isn't it such the struggle. Immediately upon giving birth I want champagne and an Italian cold cut sandwich. 
  • I was cleaning out the closet and found some of my son's preemie outfits. I started bawling at how itty bitty he was! I held it up to his new Easter outfit and just couldn't believe that in 2.5 years he had grown soooo much. I remember we would have to roll up the sleeves and pants because he was so tiny and now he is busting out of clothes faster than I can blink. It will be bizarre to hold a little newborn again!

  • I posted on Facebook my LO's first newborn clothes and how tiny they were and some mamas I know said "yeah, and he won't even fit into them for a few weeks! They'll be too big"
    ahh! How can I handle a person that small!?

    I weighed myself before my 3 hour GB test after watching carbs for several days and had lost weight. I weighed myself this morning and have gained 4 pounds since. Oopsies. Guess I should probably call my post-not having GB celebrations over. I think I ate more cake and ice cream in the last week than I have my entire pregnancy. But seriously, Costco had gigantic Tres Leches cakes on Sunday, and that's one of my favorites. I could not pass that by, and unfortunately for me, it was Costco size.

    My FIL also just emailed and said he sent a bunch of fresh baked chocolate chip cookies that should be arriving today all thanks to my request post GB test last week. He even said for us to get the freezer ready. I'm nervous he sent about 12 dozen cookies. I can't let them go to waste, though!
    Tres leches is my favorite!!!

    She wears wigs/extensions/temp hair color. I can't remember if I had to have my social sec number changed before I changed my DL. Maybe different states have different rules??

    Don't know what thread this belongs in really, just hoping some other mommas to be feel the same.. So, budgets done, looking forward to being off work and baby but just suddenly fretting...
    coming up to 34 weeks and night times are just worries about finances, losing my identity - all the stuff that in the daytime we have figured out?
    hoping i am not alone in my new non rational bedtime pattern!! Just want to relax and enjoy the last bit -
