Last night I had a dream that I gave birth and the baby was fine and everything was wonderful and when I went to change his diaper for the first time his penis fell off... like, it literally just fell off and landed on the floor.

I woke up horrified and then when I was telling H about it this morning I couldn't stop laughing. I think this is the first dream I've had this pregnancy that's so obviously showcased my FTM anxiety. I wonder what my subconscious will come up with next....

I'm sitting here giggling uncontrollably at the visualization.... My cat thinks I'm nuts.

I really want to start a name thread. But at the same time I don't. Hubby and I have no ideas for names for this baby.

My hip has really started hurting the last few days. I have so many things planned to do with DD before the new baby comes and I'm worried I won't be able to now (zoo, petting zoo/farm, kiddie amusement park).

I had 3 or 4 drinks the other night where I was eating tons of BBQ chips. I don't even really like them

Make it a clicky poll! I will vote for anything if I can click a button.

I would if I had any ideas. We have middle names and no possible first names that we like.

gray51015 · March 2016

@PBear93 we are in the same boat! We have a middle name set, no first names still.

Kballew10 · March 2016

Names are so much harder than you think they'll be... I've decided. It seemed like so much fun to find one and now I'm just annoyed that we still don't have good ideas. We have a few, but I refuse to do a poll because I think I would subconsciously hate the winning name... mostly because there's no way to know who voted for which name.

Also, my lungs ran out of space. I feel like I can't take a full breath without stretching backwards. It's rather uncomfortable.

SAVED TO PHONE!

Palisson · March 2016

I bit the bullet and purchased 23 Bumgenius freetime all in one one size fits all (over 8lbs) diapers today. Turns out the damn things are my favorites of all the cloth diapers I have tried over the last couple weeks.

Last night my 20 month old son came into the living room and said, "Diaper change. Cloth Diaper." He gets that when I come home from work and he gets home from school we switch to cloth diapers. And he likes them I guess.

HBamama2B · March 2016

@palisson your toddlers endorsement makes me ridiculously happy about CDing.

Ransoms- 1. I'm just gonna yell-type 'TITTY-TOTS!' at ransoms from now on. Can't stop laughing.

2. My DH suggested I put Easter grass below my belly for the painted egg bump pic. Then said "actually, maybe it will look like Rainbow Brite's pubes." And was confused when I fell off the couch laughing.

3. I'm from San Diego and desperately need this. It's all I can think about. And no, idiot co-worker, the frozen trader joe one's are not the same and considering a trip from NYC to SD just for rolled tacos is not 'drastic'.

I wore a shirt to the gym today that says "kicking it 24/7" but my boobs are so big no one can see the KI...I've been getting a lot of strange looks.

Bahahahahaha! Legit just snorted.

Sucking it 24/7?
licking it?
flicking?
picking?
sucking?

Yup, I'm sure they were thinking all of those! I won't be wearing the shirt again outside of the house!

ahernandez16 · March 2016

@HBamama2B mmmmm. Rolled tacos. I'd kill someone for some carne asada fries right now too... or a California burrito. We have both where I live in Central CA but they're NOT the same as the ones in SD.

MrsAlliKat · March 2016

@Palisson Love your son's cute diaper response! Makes me excited to CD. My friends highly recommened BG diapers, so that is currently what we are planning to with too.

NicknShan · March 2016

@kballew10 that is how I feel after doing a poll. I can't help but think of those opinions. I recommend not doing it. :-)

Also. Flame free Wednesday confession?

I had some amazing spicy ahi tuna last night. Raw.

Edited to add: with my gf that is out here and 24 weeks pregnant. STM problems.

CourtJack · March 2016

I might as well move into isolation for the remainder of my pregnancy. Nobody is going to want to be around me without chocolate and carbs. Nobody.

Wtf!!????? I have had two ten pound babies. I gained 60lbs plus with each of them. And now I'm high risk for this one because he's measuring SMALL. I've gained significantly less weight this time around and now I get the diabetus?!?

The universe is taking extreme joy in reminding me that this is 100% absolutely my last pregnancy ever by making it the worst!!!! Boooooo!!!!!

ok. Tantrum over. It's also 2:23 pm and I haven't eaten yet bc I fasted for the stupid test and had a scan and doc appt back to back. I'm going out in a blaze of glory. Hitting every fast food restaurant on my way home. Every. One.

Lilwatz · March 2016

@CourtJack You definitely have it? I'm sorry. I'm in the club with you if you want to commiserate.

Someone eat some tots for me!

Good luck LB!!!! Here for you!

You and I are officially in the GD club together! Failed after the first draw (even before the drink!). Here we come healthy eating and exercise!

Same

DeePaddy24 · March 2016

@CourtJack I'm sorry, LB! I had all things crossed for you today.

GinnyJ2012 · March 2016

@CourtJack sorry about the GD diagnosis.

starkeyclan · March 2016

PBear93 said:

@junebabyjoy at least you didn't have to drink the stuff again.

Unfortunately I didn't fail the first draw bad enough to not have to drink the stuff

They didn't tell me I'd failed the first draw until I went back for my second draw, so I did have to drink the stuff and still do all the blood draws...but oh well!

splsmama2016 · March 2016

@HBMama2B @ahernandez16 SD for the WIN!!!! I'm actually doing "build your own burrito" night tonight for dinner.... Complete with tots instead of fries because yes. And I think SD's tacos are better because we are like 2 seconds from TJ. One of our local markets has some of THE best carne Asada (valley farms' "Imperial valley" carne Asada) and they actually get customers who come up from Mexico just to get it. Now I'm super hungry for tacos.....

colesmom33 · March 2016

So speaking of GD tests, I just found out because I'm having twins, I have to take twice. Isn't that weird?? I passed the first time, shouldn't that be enough?

Mr0616 · March 2016

I think all our our babies should have these.

starkeyclan · March 2016

@CourtJack - I feel your pain! My staff is taking extra precautions with me the rest of the day as I think they can see on my face that it's just not a good day. My body is definitely struggling to level back out after the fasting then blood draw!

At least we have a solid support group for GD in the bump club! So thankful for June '16 ladies!

crdo · March 2016

Ugh, sorry to hear @CourtJack. Boo.

MeganF08 · March 2016

Embarrassing moment alert: today at lunch with my coworkers I tried to 'squeeze' between two tables to get to my seat...Fail. I was so concerned about not bumping the food on the table next to ours with my stomach that I totally forgot that my ass has also doubled in size. I hit our table and spilled water all over everything and everyone. There were no other open tables so I had to sit there in my shame too

At least the table next to us was kind enough to make fun of me in spanish.

The best part was that his Huggies disposable was bone dry. It wasn't that he wanted a clean diaper- he wanted a cloth diaper.

@MrsAlliKat I wouldn't have thought they were really necessary becuase they are so expensive ($25 for one)- but they are really easy to use and good. My favorite part is that the front "flap" insert can be folded in half to double the absorbency right where the penis is for double protection at night. 2nd favorite part- no diaper rash when he is in the cloth diapers.

MillerMama13 · March 2016

Well I'm officially sick again. I've gotten a cold once a month since December. Wtf immune system? I must not be consuming enough Tots. Yes. That must be it.

I love BGs. It's all I used for our older two and now I have the 4.0 and 5.0 for this dude!

I'm sorry. Hope you have an epic last hurrah and your last tri flies by so you can have all the goodies.

I make super legit street tacos, fish tacos, burritos, and enchiladas; all Baja style (Bc Tex mex is an abomination). But I've never tried rolled tacos. I'm desperate enough that I'm scouring for legit recipes.

Carne Assad fries though.... My favorite go to late night. 24hr A frame drive trough. Sob. We'll have to meet up for margaritas next time I fly home!

MillerMama13 · March 2016

I just realized what would help my super sore throat. A Sonic Slush. Plus they have tots there. It's wayyy out of my way but I need it because obviously it's the only cure for my sore throat. Looks like DD and I are going on a little road trip after I pick her up from daycare.

OMG I just had a strawberry slush from there yesterday. It hit the spot. And sonics tots are the best tots. Have one for me!

candicek15 · March 2016

@CourtJack I'm sorry you got the diabeetus. If you'd like I can dedicate all the sugary shit I eat to you!

Also, I may have bought baby Tom's from Kiddie Kobbler for our maternity photo shoot because I'm a FTM that still spends money on stupid shit and I'm insane.
