The insurance company has decided to total my car, so now I have to deal with buying a new car. Fingers crossed that Little Man stays put until the husbandman and I are able to get my new car! Because car shopping with an infant sounds like it would be the fifth circle of hell.
Thanks for the birthday wish! No love tits for the ongoing car troubles
It's 7am here, having an inner debate if I should go for a swim today. Going to the gym is a workout in itself these days.
Last day in the office! A big milestone celebration dinner is tonight, hosted by a partner company from Asia that I've been doing business with for 6+ years. It's a great honor to be invited but a semi formal dinner at almost 38 weeks pregnant prob would drain me. We'll see how I feel tonight.
badw0lf & mands1125, I'm right there with you... I have a scale but now I refuse to even go look at it, I just get depressed... even at the doctor when they say "oh you've gained xyz, everything is looking good" I still can't help but think, "YA, tell that to that number on the fackin' scale!"

I keep thinking of that line in Knocked Up "Your baby wants you to gain a whole mess of weight!" And Katherine Heigels response of "Are you fucking kidding me??"
Ugh. I'm right there with ya'll. I can't wait to start running, drinking diet cokes, and eating oatmeal and portioned Greek yogurt for two out of three meals. It's crazy that I miss the feeling of being hungry.
Whiny spam: I hate having to watch my sodium intake (stupid high blood pressure). I just want to eat ALL the bad-for-me food (I didn't even really want it until I was told I couldn't have it, of course).
Positive spam: I'm pretty sure we're going under contract on a condo today! Yay!

I don't think kids would even pick up on that. Go for it.

I think as long as you're not ASS, you're good to go.

I'm throughly confused by the fact that the other pregnant lady at the office doesn't understand that a "due date" isn't an exact guaranteed thing.
She keeps asking me what day I'm having the baby, and is baffled when I tell her "whatever day the baby decides she's ready". I get the head-tilt, followed by "well won't baby be born on her due date?"
*head desk*
Did I mention that this is her 2nd pregnancy? She's 26. I don't understand. At all.

What the huh? How does she not understand that? Is she assuming your doctor will induce on your due date?
mands1125 - Im sorry you're having a hard time, it will pass, and you will lose the weight, I know how it is, each day is a new day to start anew.
39+3 and ready, ready, ready! Was wide awake at 4 am and woke DH up at 5 am for some sex since everyone and their mom is telling me to have sex although its the last thing I feel like doing right now.
DH told me his parents have decided to hop on a plane this weekend to be here for the birth, while Im happy for him, Im not really in the mood to have company here when we first get home, but Ill get over it! Its his parents and he's excited & they're staying in a hotel.

I'm not really sure what's going on there exactly. English is not her first language and she's originally from Vietnam, so maybe they do things differently there? She's been living here for 15 years though, so I would think she'd know the basics of pregnancy by now...
I explained to her that due dates are ESTIMATED, not exact, and that baby could be born at any time. Due dates are pretty much a guideline. I don't think she got it.

How odd. It would make more sense if this was her first pregnancy or if she hadn't been pregnant. Now I want to know what they do in Vietnam.

I'm sort of afraid to ask what goes on over there. I've heard a lot of odd (non-pg related) stories from her and other co-workers.
Do companies really monitor calls for quality assurance?
We do. I also love that if a client tells me their employee called and was told "x,y,z" I can listen to the call and know exactly what they were told. More often than not it is NOT "x,y,z".
Well I guess it wasn't amniotic fluid because there was still "a ton around the baby". If it doesn't happen this weekend, Monday is induction day. I'm pissed it wasn't what I thought.

This reminds me of my friend who I know both outside of work and the office...
When we got pregnant she said, "all you have to do is have unprotected sex a few times the month you want to get pregnant." Ummm, no, there is a strategy to it, trust me! DH and I have had unprotected sex (multiple times) without resulting in a pregnancy before!
She also says that her doctor told her when she was pregnant with her son that she, "got pregnant in Dec" but she swears that they only had unprotected sex on NYE... I thought, "yeah... but you do know you're "technically" 2 weeks pregnant before you're "actually" pregnant... right?" How she has 2 children is beyond me...

To be honest, I've never charted or anything. I wasn't aware it was something people did until TB.

I completely understand. Running to the hospital and leaving is getting old.

Oh, I didn't chart or anything... I just used an ovulation calendar and made sure to have sex during the week it said I would be fertile... it was easy for us!
So someone brought in a delicious spicy green soup which I ate... and now I'm having weird period-like cramps and a very weird crampy pain in the middle of my tummy... I forgot they say to eat spicy things to induce labor (this was NOT my intention eating the soup!)... Doubt it's anything any way!
