  • This picture is perfect example of how I currently feel about my workplace. There is only one other person that works with me and she is pitiful. Well I just put my 2 weeks notice in and my confession is that I can't wait to sit back and watch this place sink. I have tried to teach her things and she just doesn't understand.

    Phew, I just had "I hope she gets I'm kidding" anxiety. 
  • I watched three instructional kegel excercise videos last night, and I'm convinced I'm doing them wrong. At least my coworkers will just think I'm deep in thought.

  • To piggyback off of @BumpasaurusRex, references to 1st Tri blumps actually being poop make me gag. I gagged typing this, in fact. Sure, it's true, I'm just not good at seeing it written out. That's my baggage. 

    My bump just won't be fun for me until it's at least partly a baby. 
  • I peed myself puking up my meds and water.   That's an exciting new thing courtesy of baby 4.  Luckily I wear cloth pads as pantiliners, but I am scared that I am already having bladder control issues at 9 weeks.   Old lady pregnancy problems.

  • For FTMs, I guess I can understand the concern and I get it.

    But I really don't know why people are always asking if others have started to show/have a bump.  Every pregnancy is different and things happen at different times for everyone.  

    You will have a bump, trust.  One day it will be there, you won't be able to see your vagina anymore, and you'll wonder if you'll be pregnant forever.  
    I have got the most enormous blump and I wish I had eaten better/worked out more/not lain in bed like a lump for the past 6 weeks.

    Honestly, I've been decently active and I do to. It's just hormones/biology I think, so don't be hard on yourself. 
  • I am crabby from my horrible traveling yesterday and it's driving me crazy right now when someone asks for advise and then has an excuse for why a suggestion won't work and then says suggestors are being rude when they clearly aren't. Who lets their one year old color unsupervised?! 

    We have two sleeping beauties in heaven.

  • I work at a university and obviously I am aware that without the 60k students, or whatever number we are at for enrollment, I would not have a paycheck, but... Damn I hate when they come back to town! Just went to the Union for lunch and its flooded. All summer the lines have been so short. Now it has like 30 people in line at each restaurant. Boo.

    Look up Olivia Cagle- she does a lot of work to prevent and heal diastasis recti and has a really good video explaining how to do them.

  • @Partyof6? I've had that problem since delivering baby #1!  I have to carefully position myself to try to keep it from happening.  Also, I can under no circumstances move while coughing or sneezing or the pee goes flying.  Right now while I feel okay, I think that might actually be worse than the morning sickness because at least morning sickness does go away!

  • Jumping on the bump train. I call BS on anyone (FTM or otherwise) who isn't excited to have "something" going on there. If you've ever dreamed of having kids, you've dreamed of having a bump! The people I know IRL, "most" ooooo and ahhhh over bumps because regardless, bumps, blumps, whatever associate with teeny, squishy babies. It's exciting and it's ok to be excited.

    MY FFFC I'm super excited for second tri because I will be having an odouls before summer is over!

    There is a difference from being excited about an actual bump. Of course I'm excited for when my bump comes back but I know at this point it's bloat. 
    Exactly. 
  • I don't understand why people need to rain on other people's parades about their bump/blump/bloat/whatever. I think that's one of those categories where Thumper's dad's advice could be well used... "If you don't have anything nice to say..." Who cares? It's not your stomach. If you roll your eyes I don't see the need to type it out, enjoy your eye roll from the comfort of your own home and let home girl enjoy the changes going on in her body to make a baby.
    This is my point exactly. I think the point of bump/bloat/fat/gas has been established, it is in one way or another pregnancy related. If you didn't have a human growing in your ute, you wouldn't have whatever it is you'd like to call it.

    And if someone (maybe not you) wants to be excited over their bloat that is associated with their pregnancy, more power to them and cheers to their excitement!
  • I had a morning and am just on the way to work right now with a light coating of urine and chlorine 

    must have lost my remaining fucks

    For me, I don't care if other people are excited. I'm just not. I feel yucky. I wish it was really the baby making my pants hurt, and sometimes I try to convince myself it is, that I'm a freak FTM with an overexcited uterus, but I just can't get excited yet over bloat. I just tell myself that in a couple of weeks it'll be there and I won't feel so gross anymore.

    No one said anything about not being excited of having a bump.  Of course we're all excited.  My point is, we're all going to get there so the frequent "do you have a bump yet? when will I show?" threads are annoying.

  • These boards are all about opinions. 
    If you are going to post something, be prepared for an opinion you may not agree with or like.
    Just because you are excited about your bloated stomach, doesn't mean someone else can't be realistic and point out that it's not an actual baby bump. 
    FFS. 
    If you want smoke blown up your crack then go somewhere else. 
    Yes we are all pregnant. 
    No, we are NOT all friends singing Kumbaya. 

    You should most definitely take your own advice on this one. ;)

    I wasn't referring to your comment, I agree with what you said. Although, without the continuous posts about the same things, I'm not sure what else would go on on this board.... There isn't a whole lot happening at this point. I look at it like any social media outlet, don't like the topic, just scroll on by! 
  • jab3-2jab3-2 member
    Is that directed towards me? I'll take a guess that it is since I don't see a bunch of questions from anyone else today. If I'm wrong and it's not, sorry. If it is, I'd rather someone just say hey jab3 instead of asking questions in 5 separate posts, please condense them into one thread. I didn't really think people wanted to read about lice, potty training an autistic kid and not finding a heartbeat all in one thread, but hey if that's how people want it, fine by me. Just call me out on it specifically so I don't have to sit and guess whether I'm the one you're referring to or not and so I can make sure to watch what I do. I'm not here to piss people off and annoy people so if that's what I'm doing let me know.

    Have I ever stated anywhere that someone shouldn't post their opinion? 
    No. 
    Have I asked someone to blow smoke up my ass? 
    No. 
    So what advice should I be taking?

    How mature of you. 
    I asked you a simple question, no? 

  • Also, if you have five different questions, please condense them into one thread. 
    Now I'm understanding why other boards have military style organization. 
    This. 100%.  I get we all need to be AW and start our own thread every now and then, but that may bump threads people are looking for down when a million in a row are happening.
