I'm so so sleepy. I actually got a coffee this morning and I think it just went to the baby because I'm still falling asleep on my keyboard and baby is dancing. Too early for a countdown to Saturday???!

Ugh, I hate all my vitamins. I keep trying different brands, different times of day, and nothing sits well. I'm mildly anemic, pregnant, and nursing, so I know I've got to take them (diet is still not remotely balanced at this point) but I'm so over it!

I start my countdown to Friday night the second my alarm goes off Monday morning. #nevertooearly
I just....want to SCREAM at everyone I work with. I didn't know that I could assemble a team of people who are so about themselves and only themselves. I've held several meetings with the sole message being "if it can help someone else and it doesn't take up more than ten minutes of your time, please do it." Yet every day it just seems like if it's not going to directly impact them, they DGAF about it. Never mind that it's going to save someone else a headache later. Not my problem. Lord give me strength to not go postal before this pregnancy is over.
I find that usually my "give a fuck" (about being a bitch to people) is busted. Now that I'm pregnant, I'm beginning to wonder if it ever existed.
I'm having a completely random thought right now. So I have everyone down my throat about the sex of the baby. I already have 2 boys, and I have a lot of people saying "You're having a girl!" or "I bet you want a girl!"
I can't stand everyone saying those things, I almost want to wait until the baby is born to find out, and for everyone else to find out. Is it bad I have anxiety about the sex, just because I feel like everyone else is putting pressure on it? I don't care how it comes out, but I feel bad that IF it is a boy, everyone will look at it as some kind of disappointment and it's absolutely gutting me! I've always wanted 3, didn't matter to me who they were. I just am getting really upset over everyone else telling me what it is.

Does anyone else have this going on?
I don't have this going on as this is our first, but I would be very tempted to just tell these people to fuck off. Especially the "I bet you want a girl" people.
risscaboobs, it's driving me insane! Even when I say "I just want healthy!" They say "But really you want a girl!?" I would love to tell them to fuck off, but most of the people are customers at my work. I say that, I lose my job

Not exactly, since this is our first. However, I do get tired of people telling me how I'll feel, and how much fun I'm going to have doing girly things.
I wonder if these people that say this, all of whom have known me for quite some time, actually even know me. Girly is fine for others, but it isn't my thing.

@erin2021, risscaboobs is wise and I agree with her. That is really rude of people to say and project into you. I actually like being team green and saying we really don't care which sex it is when people try to ask, though that prompts the "OMG, I just don't know how you could do that. I need to plan. How am I supposed to shop for you (me, me, me)......" Which is pretty damn annoying in their own right. I would just straight faced that either way is great and then bean dip them to get them to STFU.

I think I'm just going to start refusing to answer questions. It doesn't matter if you're finding out, team green, FTM/STM+ - people are going to have something super fucking annoying to say to you. And they all think they are the first ones to ever say this to you. No, bitch, I've already had this same conversation 50 times today. So kindly stfu.

I think people assume we want a boy and some have said things along those lines, although for some reason, I think people are less like this about "getting a boy" when you already have a girl... I think some people assume every woman wants a daughter, but anyway.
I am not the least bit disappointed to be having another girl (we have not revealed that we know the sex to the general public), though I know I would have been EQUALLY thrilled to have a boy this time around too. I would tell people the absolute truth, like you have us. Just say, I've always wanted 3 children, and it doesn't matter to me who or what they are, I will love them either way and just excited to add to our family. If they push you on it...feel free to go full-on bitch hormonal pregnant lady on their ass!

Also, film it for our entertainment later, pleaseandthankyou
My MIL is pissed we let slip the sex to my parents but won't tell anyone else yet. I don't care because I kind of hate her. She tried to guilt-trip me into telling her yesterday by going on (in front of a bunch of people) how it's not fair ONE grandmother knows and the OTHER one doesn't! Oh, boo hoo.
I wanted to wait until after the A/S to tell anyone, but it came up by accident where I said "she" with my mom and couldn't really take it back. I told DH he could tell her if he wanted to, but I wasn't going to make an announcement in front of a bunch of people at a party that wasn't about that.

We're friends with several couples who have had 2 girls or are currently expecting a 2nd girl, and from what I've seen, people are sympathetic that they're not having a boy and assume they'll try for a 3rd (because every father wants a son?), so I feel like it's the same BS either way.
Already a lot of people have asked me if I'm disappointed that we're having another boy, and it makes me kind of ragey and protective of DS2. My grandma had the rudest reaction, but of course with her my response was good-natured.

I don't personally have up this happening, but I have 4 sisters so my parents got this all the time. People use to say "your poor dad" when they would find out we were a family of 5 girls. It really use to piss me off because I was a daddy's girl and felt like I was just as capable of doing things with my dad as a son would have been. People need to think before they speak.
Calf cramps are killing me! What can I do for relief? I'm trying to drink an ton of water and stretch frequently.
Potassium rich foods and tonic water is supposed to help with leg cramps. I can't remember why for the tonic water, but my best friend got them all the time when she was pregnant and her OB recommended it to her. She swore by it.
I'm sorry for those of you hearing bullshit from people about what sex your baby is going to be. I thought people prying about when we were going to start trying and having kids was bad, but JFC, the shit you seem hear once your pregnant is just as bad. I can't believe how many people have asked us for intimate details about if we were trying and what we were doing while trying. Like, really? My husband and I agreed to start a family and had sex. Beyond that, keep your nose out of my bedroom.
We heard nonstop prior to learning the sex that we had better be having boy since the only other grandchild on my side of the family is already a girl. Sorry to disappoint you family, it's a girl. Considering we spent a full day at the peri being told we might lose the baby, the fact that anyone felt they deserved say on the sex was absurd. After the three weeks it took us to find out if we were even going to get a take home baby or not, I couldn't care less what the sex was. People just do not think before they speak.

I had a girlfriend say to me "Oh, I'll bet your husband is excited to have a boy to play sports with!" Seriously? My daughter isn't incapable of athletic activity just because she doesn't have a penis. DH and I are already enjoying playing catch with her and swimming and going to baseball, football and basketball games. She loves it.
The weirdest part is that my girlfriends and I are all pretty big sports participants and fans, so I was surprised to get that kind of comment. Luckily DH is still looking forward to coaching her in T-ball in a couple of years even though he's "getting" a boy too.
