I was putting cheese on crackers yesterday, and I realized that at some point in my life, I probably have made nachos with american cheese. (Not because I didn't know better, just out of desperation)

I haven't worn real pants since like week 5. I'm all about the leggings , maternity jeans, yoga pants & sweats.

I'm shamelessly addicted to Grey's Anatomy. Current storylines+pregnancy hormones led to me spending most of last night's episode either crying or yelling at the TV.

I'm somewhat shamefully addicted to it. It is so, sooooo unrealistic. My classmates (med school) would totally make fun of me if they knew I watched it. But I started watching it years and years ago and have continued. It's pretty much the only North American TV I watch - almost everything else I watch is from the BBC or ITV.

I got a mani/pedi last night and didn't feel like going to my regular place. I went to this other place that's much closer and heard good things about. (THEY GIVE WINE DUDE. I about cried.)

So, I was discussing shellac/shape with the techs and mentioned I wanted shorter because I'm pregnant and they are growing like crazy. The tech's eyes go big and she's like, "ohhhh belllly!" and makes this big motion with her hand to shape a bump on her own stomach and I panicked. But at first I thought she meant, 'oh wow, this chick is huge, that explains it' but really, after thinking about it - she just didn't speak English well.

Instantly, the other tech is all, "how far are you!?" and I didn't want to make the other lady uncomfortable for calling me huge even thought she totally didn't (but my brain didn't compute that yet) so I said...."uhhhhh. I'm due in July!" (my son's former due date) and they both freak out and exclaim over how tiny I am while I'm furiously trying to do math in my head at where the hell that would put me as far as months along.

Yeah. My blump passed for 6.5 months pregnant last night. I can never go back there.

@HomeyDontPlayThat I love you.

I'm still watching because I started basically from the beginning and can't give it up now. It's definitely not as good as it used to be. But they're like old friends that you stay friends with even though you don't have much in common. I haven't watched last night's yet.

That's freaking fantastic.

We went out to dinner for a friend's birthday last night. They pre-ordered a bunch of apps for when everyone got there. I'm pretty sure I ate at least half of the fried pickles when no one was looking. They were freaking amazing!

TrulyBlessed22 · April 2016

@EDK2010 So along those lines I have to admit that the main reason I'm glad that I have to go to TX for work next month is to eat Fried Pickles and other such food. Big burgers, fried pickles, steaks...it all sounds sooo good to me right now.

doraleigh35 · April 2016

@TrulyBlessed22 that sounds amazingly delicious!

GirPipley · April 2016

I have about 100 things to do today. I was up at 7:00, got my DD out the door for school, and have been sitting on the couch watching HGTV since then. I haven't logged in to my work email, have not checked messages, just sitting here eating my 3rd bowl of soup and watching HGTV. It has been a glorious morning, I think I'll continue this activity level all day.

muybueno · April 2016

My nanny took the morning off work yesterday so I took care of my two boys all morning. I feel like a survivor. When she arrived, I was so relieved to go upstairs and work. I felt like I should be excommunicated from the Motherhood as I scurried upstairs while yelling down "have fun, they've already had lunch!"

KilgraveMadeMeDoIt · April 2016

Normally, I spend 4-8 hours per case preparing for our small group sessions.

My tutorial this afternoon is on childbirth.

Didn't read a damn thing to prepare. I've got this.

jdebaie · April 2016

I am not weighing myself at all this pregnancy and I'm not going to stress over my weight. (I know the doc will weigh me but I just don't look!)

aquasocks · April 2016

I was just eating at the finest of dining establishments, the house of the waffle of course, when my ex-boyfriend walked in. (We dated over 10 years ago, but he was my last serious relationship since I met my husband.) Anyway, I was eating breakfast with my husband and kid and I got so weirded out, I pretended the sun was in my eyes and I put my sunglasses on. I know he saw me anyway,
sitting there like a douche in my sunglasses, but I just pretended to study the menu (uhhh waffles or waffles?) even though he was in my direct line of vision. The whole time my husband pretended not to notice, and my daughter was oblivious. The awkwardness was so so strong.

jenesiso · April 2016

As much as I'd like to eat salads and fruit, all I do is eat rich fatty foods. I'm blaming it all on my husband lol. I was over weight before I got pregnant, but now every time I eat I feel guilty.

Katemr1146 · April 2016

I just ordered three people's worth of Chinese food for lunch. For just me.
It just all sounded good!!

grannysmith912 · April 2016

@aquasocks That is amazing. The awkwardness was definitely worth it for the sake of the story, IMO!

I styled my hair for the first time in at least two and a half weeks today—but only because I had to go in for a bang trim and didn't want my stylist to think her work was being wasted on a total slob. Now that it's over, back to the ponytail.

shevaCC · April 2016

I'm done with my hours for the week in another 45 minutes! I'll probably end up sitting on the deck enjoying the sunshine, ignoring all the chores I should be catching up on.

Des321 · April 2016

I bought a dozen KK donuts the other day, mostly for fiance. But somehow I've managed to eat 90% of them.

^^^^^^^All of this.

I actually think this season is pretty good. I mean besides for like all the ridiculous things that continue to happen over and over again to these characters.

BTW Am I the only one that wonders what the hell is Meredith's child care situation. She works like 70 hr/week as a surgeon, is a single mom, and has a social life? Who the hell is taking care of the kids we barely ever see?

TrulyBlessed22 · April 2016

We don't have KK near us BUT I'm soooo looking forward to our upcoming trip to VA because my nephew has one near his house and I just love when we drive by and the sign says "How KK Doughnuts Now". Sadly I can eat an undisclosed when they are warm. Damn now I want one now @Des321

leaseee · April 2016

@chloe97 Agree that this season has been slightly better and I do think about the childcare. Maybe a hospital daycare would be like super accommodating??

g8rmama_16 · April 2016

My confession... A few weeks ago I said I didn't care about deli meat and I was annoyed all the threads turned into discussions about it. Well. This week all I can think about are deli sandwiches and I finally gave in and got one. It was glorious. I did get it toasted, so the meat was warmed up, in case anyone cares.
I got it at an Italian bakery down the street and I also got a free cookie. Total win.

DunkinDecaf · April 2016

I'm about to go for my third grocery trip this week because I NEED the stuff to make a hot pastrami sandwich. Also I may make a run at a homemade cherry pie (my first pie attempt ever! Sounds so good right now). I also may just buy a pie if I look at the recipe and it looks scary and difficult.

Hedgessm · April 2016

I officially swapped out all of my pants today for maternity pants. I'm tired of the belly band.

muybueno · April 2016

@aquasocks, you win. I didn't think anyone's FFFC could top the awkwardness and hilarity that @HomeyDontPlayThat brought to the table, but you did it.

shevaCC · April 2016

Some of these shower siggies are freaking me out! I'll be glad for a new topic in May.

GirPipley · April 2016

Speaking of donuts, H just came home with these. He's been home for 30 minutes and between the two of us, they might be almost gone. My stomach is about to explode.

Katemr1146 · April 2016

I only bump mobile, so I have no idea what my signature looks like. And FFFC I don't give a shit. I always hated the stupid signatures in my last BMB

comealongponds · April 2016

@GirPipley omfg those look sooo good. I'm drooling over here eating a pear...not the same!

@katemr1146 your Siggy says you're 139 weeks pregnant lmao

AmandaR417 · April 2016

I walked into a coworker's office thinking it was my own. I was literally annoyed at all the papers on "my" desk and stood, riffing through stacks of papers getting ticked off because I had no idea what I was supposed to do with it all....it wasn't until I opened up a piece of mail, then checked the outside of the envelope that I realized I was one door off.

Coworker thought it was hilarious... Offered to let me have any of the mail/paperwork I want. She knows I'm KTFU, so I imagine she'll tease me about "pregnancy brain" for quite some time now.

AdmiralKitty · April 2016

OB told me I was a little heavy at my appt yesterday so I promptly went out afterwards and got a giant fro-yo with loads of sprinkles. #dontcare

thatlauragirl · April 2016

I'm planning on leaving my newborn home with DH this December for a few hours so I can go see Rogue One. And I'll probably do it at the CineBistro so I can enjoy a steak and a cocktail while I watch. And mommy guilt will be nowhere to be found.

Shoot, I plan to leave baby with DH in December for a 5 days girls trip to Vegas for the rodeo. I am also leaving him with the other kids and all the dogs. Definitely no guilt.

comealongponds · April 2016

Didn't feel like cooking tonight so we had antipasti and jalapeno pinwheels (jalapeños & cream cheese in puff pastry). Who needs vegetables?

Obviously the beer is DH's...I'm drinking a virgin Moscow mule (and like the neurotic person I am, I nuked the meat before I ate it lol).

kns1988 · April 2016

My god, @GirPipley, that's like food porn.
