@CopperBoom86 I think I must have been one of those babies. My mom says she felt me move maybe once a week??? She was in the hospital constantly because they were always concerned I had passed away. The doctors couldn't even get me to move half the time, no matter what they tried. But my heart was always beating strong, so they just kept their fingers crossed.
@blumommy Thank you! hahaha I thought I was the only one struggling with dominant and aggressive dogs.... Luckily DH is the one talking to his mother about it... She is dominant too hahaha
@CopperBoom86 Each one of my babies have been spazz babies in utero, and I remember reading they were supposed sleep most of the time... Pfft. Yeah right.
I also have a spazz baby. He wakes me up multiple times a night and I have now added a new life experience to my list: inserting my hand into my own thoracic cavity to move my organs. I literally hold my uterus away from my ribs because I can't. Take. It. Anymore.
My random is I just realized I have become a mean person. My whole life I have been unhealthily nice and non-confrontational, but this past week I have started saying things I would never have said, and thinking mean things about people I normally would have defended. Is this permanent or just pregnancy hormones?! I'm having an identity crisis over here!
My MIL just texted me that she bought a ninja turtles onesie so Baby B can be one for Halloween because DH liked ninja turtles as a kid. I'm sorry, did you ask me what my plan was for his first Halloween?? No. Just no. I should be able to pick my baby's first costume. Maybe that's just me, but it was kind of something I was looking forward to......
note: I'm not even planning on getting into Halloween this year because he will be so little. He might wear black and orange or something for a cute pic but that's it.

Ugh, my mother does stuff like this all the time. I love her dearly, so I let it slide most of the time, but sometimes I have to put my foot down. She knits and crochets a lot, so she showed me Reagan's "coming home" outfit the other day. I was like "That's great. And she'll wear it.... just not home from the hospital because I've already purchased a coming home outfit for her to wear." She pouted for days, but got over it. I don't even care- SHE'S MY KID!!!
My DH randomly asked me if I wanted to become a SAHM after the baby is born. Um what! We already have 2 boys and this is the first time he has ever mentioned anything like this.
Question: Does anybody use or plan to use My fitness Pal after the babes are born? If so, would anybody be interested in forming a little PP fitness support circle on there? I haven't been active on there since 2011/2012 trying to lose weight PP with DD, but I reinstalled the app and am going to get back on board.
Thanks for all the sympathy ladies! In a lovely update, I just got two emails confirming that all of the stuff we ordered has shipped....to the wrong address of course. I'll have to call again in the morning and see what they say this time, I'm so ragey!!
@LGW2015 Oh my god, that's unbelievable. I'm so sorry they're putting you through all that! They send you some gift cards with that order after all this!
@emmaaa That is so scary, glad your pup is okay! And smart thinking on your part to hold off on going to the emergency vet. It's so easy to get emotional when furbabies are involved.
@MorganL925 I feel you, I've been having crazy Pizza Hut cravings this pregnancy and would have been upset too!
@LGW2015 Ahh I got anxiety just reading that post! I'm sorry that BRU is being so annoying. I don't know how they shipped your stuff or how much you ordered, but you may be able to call the post office/your local FedEx/whatever service they used and ask them to hold it there til you can pick it up. I did that once when I accidentally had something shipped to our old apartment. Hopefully they fix the situation!
Add me to the "wow my baby is practicing kickboxing 23 hours a day" camp. Sometimes I get kicks and punches in such quick repetition, it feels like a baby earthquake!
I can't catch up to everyone but, customer service sucks, MIL suck, OMG w snakes and dogs, someone send @kmolleltz chips and cookies, and ask me again in November about fitness apps.
Ugh... So stressed. It just hit me that tomorrow is the day we take the dog to the trainer to get a plan together to, hopefully, help with his issues. This isn't the person who trained him, but he was familiar with her from being around the training facility and loved her when I used to take him to the weekend group training/practice sessions.... But what if he doesn't remember her? I haven't gone to one of those in a LONG TIME. What if he's just not right around strangers anymore? What if what they tell us to do doesn't work?! We need this to work. And I need to make it through tomorrow's session without turning into a sobbing mess in front of the trainer....
@bnsmith85 try to be positive! If your pup senses you're nervous and upset it can make him on edge too. Try to stay calm and positive, I believe in your pup!! Fingers crossed for a good day tomorrow.
On Thursday I bought a pint of Ben & Jerry's Mint Chocolate Cookie ice cream. I really love mint ice cream but I don't like Oreos so this ice cream was a little bit of a compromise. Well apparently I'm not willing to compromise because I haven't even opened it. And I'm sad because I want to eat it but I don't... That's like a petty problem Monday.
I must be crazy, but I randomly want to give birth at a birth center and not the hospital. My insurance doesn't cover it, so I have no choice but to go to the hospital. Dang.
I hope everything goes well at the trainers today @bnsmith85! I agree with PP who said to try to be positive because your pup will definitely be able to tell if you're anxious...making them anxious.
I hope you and your pup have a good day at the trainer's today @bnsmith85 !! I have a good feeling - you know that at heart he is a sweet and good dog, so I think he just needs some help! Try to stay positive!
There was a newborn that just died from the Zika virus in Houston today (where I live) this gives me full rights to freak out and start a whole new post about it right?!

Re: Weekly Randoms 08.08.2016
Baby A (via IUI due to MFI): Sep 2016 born at 35+6
I have Facebook open on my computer, but the tab says "October 2016 Moms" because I'm on the group there.
And I have two tabs for The Bump open, but one says "MyFitnessPal" because I have that thread open.
I don't know which site is which anymore. My pregnancy brain is not handling all of these transitions very well!

@LGW2015 omg... I'd be livid! Like call the manager, give me free sh*t angry. Not acceptable!
@AllyTheKid and @MRSCORKER - peer pressure, peer pressure! We need you on the FB group!
@annabenanna, @AllyTheKid and @CopperBoom86 - yes to the acrobat living inside of me!
@ibabyloveb87 umm... Thanks but no thanks MIL! Lol
@CopperBoom86 my grandmother let me know she made a sweater for our LO years ago and was just waiting for me to have a baby so she could send it.
@TurtleMomma it's been a rough Monday I guess haha
