What's happening this weekend?

picklesplease · April 2016

I'm at my uncle's wedding. There's an open bar!!! Perfect way to spend CD1!

PepperAT · April 2016

I was literally just thinking of starting this thread and as I looked at gifs, that is the one I was going to post! lol

I like your style!

I am so excited it is the frickin' weekend!!

@PepperAt! We're the same person!! That was the other gif I almost posted!!!

MelissaM090 · April 2016

I'm hoping someone is around and willing to talk me off my BSC SS ledge. Please smack me over my (theoretical) head until I fully comprehend that:

- Even though I thought 8DPO was an acceptable day to test (barely), I was mistaken. I'm only 7DPO and therefore what I'm convinced was a squinter is really just a figment of my imagination.

- The cramps I'm feeling are not freaking 'implantation cramps', they're probably just like, constipation.

- My increasingly high temperatures are just because it's been warm in the bedroom, I don't have anything that looks like a triphasic chart.

- I'm tired because I'M TIRED. Crazy week.

Jesus Christ I've never been this bad before. I feel like those crazy newbies who post dumb questions and get flamed. I need a dose of reality please.

DH is out of town until tomorrow afternoon...will probably lay low this weekend.

mylove071407 · April 2016

@MelissaM090 I don't think you are BSC...I would chalk it up to a moment of weakness and a crazy week.

linzrunz · April 2016

@MelissaM090 I googled "exhaustion at 7 dpo" earlier and was thoroughly entertained by all the gag inducing sunshine and rainbows that happened on countless other sites. Totally brought me down from the beginning of a BSC SS episode and had my giggling by the end.

My weekend has already started off awesome... With DH being a complete a-hole. This is our first real weekend together in what feels like forever (he is almost always working at least one day during the weekend if not both) and now I don't even want to be near him. But he did make tacos for dinner so... There's that.

picklesplease · April 2016

Short wedding, but that's okay! Now I'm at home with a book I ordered on Wednesday and Gilmore Girls! And I may be a little (read: very) tipsy...

aammyy33 · April 2016

So deciding what to have for dinner/deciding who cooks said meal is a freaking full time job in my house. I swear greater than half my conversations with DH end up with him asking what's for dinner, regardless of what time it is.
All week I've been good about picking, shopping for, cooking, and cleaning up dinner. Tonight DH was home 2 hours before me and didn't bring up dinner. Get home, still no mention of dinner, 2 hours pass and he asks if I'm hungry. I say yes. He asks what I'd like. I say the golden words....you know the ones I'm talking about...the ones he uses allllllllll the time: "it doesn't matter". He gets a bit pissy and then walks away. It's now almost 10pm and we still haven't had dinner.

Ugh, I'm so hungry but I refuse to lose. I get that this is a very childish fight but I want to win damn it. So now I'm scarfing crackers and peanut butter in the other room while he still refuses to make anything!

pretzel2plus1 · April 2016

WEEKEND!! I'm going to the beach with my mom tomorrow for her birthday. I'm so excited! I need it so badly after this week at work, and next week is going to be just as bad.

@melissam090 and @linzrunz no shame! We've all googled crazy things.

linzrunz · April 2016

@aammyy33 my DH and I do that too!! When it's my turn, I have meals planned way ahead of time. When it's his turn... He calls me at like 430... At work... Asking what I want for dinner. I hate it! Then usually he fixed some steaks (which he knows I'm not a fan of) and calls that dinner. No veggies. No carbs. No salad. No sides. Just steak. He has gotten better over the years (tonight he made tacos) but it took a lot of standing my ground. Good luck! Haha

SandwichLover · April 2016

@aammyy33 you described my life. H does not cook anymore even though I get home more than 3 hours after him. Ugh!

PepperAT · April 2016

@linzrunz My H does the damn steak thing too! Every time he seems so proud of himself and every time I have to remind him that I am not a fan of steak and that something on the side would be nice. Sometimes if I am lucky there is a potatoe waiting for me, but common! haha

@aammyy33 Good luck girl! I have been there before. Hopefully something good comes out of this standoff.

aammyy33 · April 2016

Update: He is now making food. It contains three ingredients. Pasta, canned alfredo sauce, and sausages. I'll take it! If I'm lucky it will be ready by 11pm.

But I will eat every last bite.

MamaMunn · April 2016

@DoctorDonna What is this book you ordered? I've been looking for a helpful book on PCOS.

picklesplease · April 2016

@MamaMunn- this is the book I found. I saw it on Pinterest. It wasn't too expensive. I haven't had much of a chance to get too far in it, but it's kind of cool. I like that it gives you a chance to write notes and questions. I also found a "PCOS Cookbook" that a friend recommended, too. I might order that next week.

meilay · April 2016

I'm going to a Prince tribute party tomorrow! DH is being a trooper and agreeing to go even though it's literally just because I have so few friends and would be crushed if I couldn't find anyone to go. I posted about it in other threads but for some reason his passing is hitting me hard and I'm excited to go celebrate his legacy.

Also, KQED put together the most perfect compilation of Prince gifs so please forgive me in advance if all my posts for the foreseeable future are littered with them. Not surprisingly, many are perfect for TTC related topics.

Also, also, I just had an utterly delightful cupcake. I mean, it tasted like a little fluffy, moist taste of chocolatey heaven. So good!

Edited to add Prince gif

I have this too. I leafed through it and it looks good. I meant to actually pick it up and read it after my initial RE appointment but forgot about it. I should go find this now... It's around here somewhere...

MamaCoffin · April 2016

My 2 year old has been sick off and on for 3 weeks now. It started with flu like symptoms but has continued with a fever at least part of the day everyday since. Now this week we've had awful bouts of diarrhea and constipation added to the mix. We spent several hours at her pediatricians office (closed them down and still were there an hour after they turned off the main lights) doing everything we could in office to try to avoid admitting her. She's stable but very miserable and there's an expected abdominal obstruction. We go back in in the morning for labs and panels and an abdominal ultrasound (unless she declines overnight, then we go straight to the er). I'm worried. Her abdomen is slightly distended, she's clammy and pale and she has bags under her eyes. I've been trying to not be "hypercondriac mom" but something is definitely up. They're tossing around talk of thyroid or gluten issues. We'll be doing a complete celiac panel. Fingers crossed everything comes back normal and we just need to make some mild dietary changes to get her system back on track. I'm so tired of seeing my baby girl uncomfortable.

But this is my weekend. Snuggled up to my sweet doodle.

ETA: I need a serious vacation after everyone is physically healthy. I need a mental break!

picklesplease · April 2016

@jenmlangtake2 - Oh no! I hope she feels better soon or they are able to pinpoint what's going on! That sounds horrible! Poor thing.

linzrunz · April 2016

@jenmlangtake2 I'm so sorry! FX that everything is ok. Keep us updated.

SandwichLover · April 2016

@jenmlangtake2 hope all is ok! Hugs to you.

Renee1105 · April 2016

@aammyy33 I plan the whole month of dinners in advance, this way my husband knows what to shop for and what to prep if he gets home before me, do you think that would work?

@jenmlangtake2 hope your little one is doing better!

cabu14 · April 2016

I'm up early again this saturday.. I love hearing my dogs nibble on their kibble. crunch crunch crunch.. idk what it is about it I think it sounds so cute. the sound of any human chewing on the other hand drives me up a wall!

Megzb510 · April 2016

It was my friend's bday last week and she planned this outing for today where we are going to one of those "panic rooms" where you get locked in and have to solve puzzles to get out in one hour. That should be pretty fun. Then we are getting dinner at Cooper's Hawk where I'm going to be alllll about the wine...

MonaLisaRalphio · April 2016

There's yet another new brewery (this time a cidery!) opening in town today, plus another beer release, so we're meeting up with my bestie and her boyfriend around 3 to go drink all the yummy brewed things, and then we have reservations at our favorite restaurant at 9. I slept for nine hours in preparation. Didn't wake up until after 8:30. You guys. I NEVER sleep past 7. I feel like a f'ing champ right now.

meilay · April 2016

@MonaLisaRalphio Ha! I feel like that but for the opposite reason. I am usually really crabby on less than 8 hours of sleep and hate getting up before 8. It's 7am my time, I only slept about 5.5 hours, and I've already woken DH up to GDTPT and now I may go to the gym. I don't know who I am anymore.

pretzel2plus1 · April 2016

@jenmlangtake2 I hope all is well this morning!

@MonaLisaRalphio Where do you live with all these breweries opening?! (More of a hypothetical question, you know, internet safety and all.) Enjoy your afternoon!

picklesplease · April 2016

Started to get ready for the gym to find this guy snuggled up in DH's spot. Sorry if the picture is huge. I'm mobile bumping this weekend.

MelissaM090 · April 2016

I woke up on my own at 5:15am and my first thought was 'perfect, now my temp will be on time!'. And then my second thought was 'oh crap, I'm probably not going to be able to go back to sleep'. And I didn't. It's now noon on a Saturday and I've been awake for SEVEN HOURS. Ugh.

virginiaham · April 2016

Happy weekend!!

MonaLisaRalphio · April 2016

@pretzel2plus1 You've got mail

mrsdee15 · April 2016

Happy weekend everyone!

I'm about to go shopping for the first time in forever.

I just read a thread on the 1st Tri board that really bothered me though (if you're having a bad TTC day I really recommend not looking for it), that's what I get for lurking those pages.

@DoctorDonna I think I have one of those! Is it a schnauzer?

Ahaha. Love it! I started to type "my feet are cold 8dpo" yesterday into Google. And then I read what I had typed and was like, "No, you're better than this." and closed my laptop. OH was like, "What's so funny?" and I'm like, "There's a weird part of the Internet where women think that their poop being green or their teeth feeling sensitive means they're pregnant... and I just about went there."

He sure is! His name is Munch!

AF has me feeling salty AF (seewhatIdidthere)

I was lurking on 1st Tri and read the meanest comment that I've ever read on the Bump. Seriously. I think what I said in response wasn't that bad but hopefully I don't get a warning. I just can't with people these last few days. I should probably just stay indoors and away from the public.

You saw the same one I did, that comment was so nasty. Your response was not bad at all. I wanted to respond, but I just sat here like

picklesplease · April 2016

@Lecool- I had to go do some stalking over there after you posted that. Holy hell what is wrong with people?! I cannot stand women who come on this board just to cause trouble. She's obviously really upset about something and is taking it out on others. I don't think you would deserve to be reported for calling her out on her bullshit.

aammyy33 · April 2016

@lecool I'm glad you wrote what you did. That girl was horrible! I feel like @mrsdee15 probably read the same thread. Glad she apparently skipped right over TTC and we didn't have to deal with her attitude here
