I can't wait for my husband to leave for work so I can have the house to myself. Every time he says something I want to say something bitchy in reply, even though he doesn't deserve it. I don't have to pretend to be nice if no one is around.
Well @AmadorRose I'm sending you my nesting energy as requested! I did use some this morning to stage stuff around the house in case LO came today I can have shit ready for people to get.
So turns out I've lost weight since my last appointment (yay! I am not allowed to gain more at this point) and I decided to treat myself to some candy. Only the shop had 70% discount on their candy so I ended up coming home with around 3lbs of candy I wish I could say that this candy will still be there by next week but I would be lying.
Went to the grocery store yesterday and bought myself some cookie dough to eat raw (yes, I know you're not supposed to, and no, I don't care at this point). Skipped right past the stuff that they sell that you're allowed to eat out of the jar because it's not as good as the real thing, and paid $2 more than I would have paid for Pillsbury ($2.50 more than for the generic) for the Nestle Toll House brand, because it's the best and I deserve the best.
Also bought a package of English muffins, because I needed a vehicle for some melty butter. Have not yet eaten any cookie dough... because I ate all 6 English muffins for lunch yesterday. Whoops.
You are impressive. Soulmate status officially reinstated.
Target has had this bra in a pattern I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE, but when I tried it on way back when, they didn't have any size that fit me (even closely). There was also a robe that came in that pattern, which DH got me for Christmas, and I've been happy with just that.
So today I was there and saw that the bra was on clearance for like $5!!!!! The biggest they had was a 36DD, so I tried it on and... uh, well? Kinda. I can clasp it on the last set of hooks, and the cups are barely big enough to contain what's happening in there these days, but it's ON and relatively comfortable! I put it on as soon as I got home and I'm just basking in the cuteness and hoping it stretches out quickly. I'm sure pretty soon the cups aren't going to be big enough anymore, but whatever. $5 for the cutest bra ever to wear for like a week or two is pretty alright.
Also, I seriously cannot comprehend what is happening with my boobs. I genuinely don't think they even really look bigger, but apparently I've gone up multiple cup and band sizes. It's also the only place I've gotten any stretch marks. Sooo obviously they ARE growing, even if I can't really see the difference. DH thinks I'm blind and/or in denial.
They sell bra band extenders online and in some bra stores.

They'll shrink down eventually, so you can wear it then too!
One of my housemates has their parents visiting this weekend and so I'm hiding in our section of the house and pretending I'm not home. They're perfectly fine people, I just have ZERO interest in entertaining anyone else's guests tonight... They're going to want to talk about pregnancy and I just cannot with near-strangers. (It's a little hypocritical because my parents are here all the damn time but my parents are awesome so. Whatever.)
One of DH's good friends is in town. I love this girl, and she was originally supposed to be one of my roommates when I first came back from Cali. We were supposedly hanging out with her and my old roommates tomorrow.
Well DH called me on lunch to tell me she was in town early and wants to hang out tonight too. I close tonight. Then open in the morning. So I am not doing aaaanything after work. So I hope if he goes out he stays there. That would mean the whole bed to myself!
I also feel a little sassy toward him today anyway. He keeps giving one of our friends all this advise about how to make his relationship better (two of our friends who have been together for 8 years and have 2 daughters). We have a pretty great relationship in my opinion, but part of that was because he did lots of these things with/for me. He's cut way back on quite a few of these things. I have made a point to keep doing the things he likes because I know I'm slacking in some departments, like sex. But can a girl get a cute note? I went out of my way two weeks ago after my Dr appt to leave him one on his bike at work.
I think I may pick up some Krispy Kreme donuts after work.
My FFFC is that I'm jealous of moms that deliver a week or couple weeks before they're EDD, especially if they are first time moms. Since we had to evict DD1 after her EDD, and I had been so convinced I would go early since my mom delivered us all early (1-3 weeks), it was a huge bummer to see my due date come and go, while others got their baby early. I have no idea what will happen this time around, as I'm already more pregnant now than my mom was with me. And I struggle because I don't want to be admitted to the hospital until at least 12:01am 4/1 due to some extra insurance benefits...but I want my baby!
Agreed. DD was born at 38w5.... So "yesterday" and actually thinking about another week (or more) is killing me. The option to induce next week (Dr is out of town the week after my EDD) is getting more and more tempting each day even though I know there's not a medical need at this point.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I'm 37+4 and still dont feel any closer to meeting my LO. I'm hoping by my Monday appointment there is some progress but I'm thinking DD is way to comfy up in here. We're all so close yet I still feel like it's so far away

Absolutely. I am dying of jealousy of everyone on here who has had their baby. I am due the 3rd, for Pete's sake! I should be first! Wah.
I randomly just thought about that girl who was trying to get put on bedrest in the late first tri/early second tri and wondered how she's doing. I don't know why. Does anyone remember her? It may have been on the tri board. Anyway, I'm currently laid up with my giant balloon feet propped wondering how she could possibly survive this final month when she was struggling so bad in the beginning with being exhausted and not able to do housework and shit. Lol
@Missingchampagne I feel for you with the late April due date! I'm due the first week of April and I'm already anxious (in a good way) from seeing all the babies that have been born already!!!
I envy each and everyone of you pigging out on cookie dough, bagels/cream cheese, donuts. I was diagnosed with GD at the end of December and all I want to eat is carbs! Get this baby out and give me a cookie! Praise God I'm 39+2 weeks. Could be anytime! I want a toffee nut cookie from panera first!
