I confess....

[wannabeamommy0124]

So its been a while since we last did this and I am sure most of our confessions have changed quite a bit.. at least mine have... so here they are...

I confess:

I still forget to take my vitamins
I still eat sushi.. rarely but i eat it...
I have had more junk food during this pregnancy than before i was pregnant...
fast food?? my new favorite...
I cut down my hours at work but i still cant find time to do anything around the house
sleeping has become my worse nightmare as i cant find a confortable position...
as of tonight the recliner will become my bed until this baby pops out...
i cant wait till this baby is out so i can have normal sex and actually enjoy it!!
i still havent packed my hospital bag...
i feel like i am still missing everything important i need for baby..
she has a closet full of clothes and i feel like it wont be enough...
more than half of my closet is put away as i cant wear it but i still manage to have 2 loads of laundry every week (i wear a uniform at work)

Trh oh man I want to deliver at the hospital you are delineating at!!  Might be worth the plane ticket ;). If you do get the suite take lots of pics for us!!

[trh0819]

My hospital has maternity suites available that are bigger than a regular room, have amazing food, and a queen size bed for hubby. I realize it's not necessary but I really want the extra luxury, especially if I have to stay for 3-4 days. Haven't ruled it out yet  :-)

[wannabeamommy0124]

lol!!! i forgot that one too!! i cant wait to have a beer!! and my dh also freaks out when i say i want even a zip of his... its ridiculous... anyways.... i didnt know about hte temp of showers and baths but i doubt mine are that hot...

[lil_lady25]

I'll go out and have a drink for all of you!! haha Actually i'm breastfeeding so I wont be able to drink much but im sure by now I can get a good buzz from a bottle of beer :)

[alyssagillstrom]

I just want a glass of wine before bed. I cannot wait to relax with a glass. hubby said he'll take some days for baby and him and let me just relax and sip on some wine all day. Im counting down the days.

[SunWorshiper_26]

Yes!!  Football season has not been the same without my bud light either :(

Wannabeamommy your bath shouldn't be more than 100 degrees F as it can cause brain damage to the fetus it is the same reason a fever could be harmful or raising your core body temp at all.

[HaYnSweetie]

LMAO seattleview...i feel your pain! I am ready to sit back with my bud light lime and some mango margaritas LOL! And dont forget the jose lmao! ;)

[seattleview]

My biggest confession...I'm REALLY looking forward to drinking alcohol again!  Despite the fact that my husband was in the room when TWO different medical care providers at TWO different offices said it's fine to have a beer or glass of wine during pregnancy, he freaks out if I even mention that I would like one.  Football season just hasn't been the same without my Bud Light...

[Majikat]

i wish i didn't spend that much on baby stuff... its mostly because at the beginning of my pregnancy I fell in a grocery store and they paid me off so i didn't sue them lol....

[wannabeamommy0124]

-lol to all of you.. so apparently the sex desire goes both ways lol!! as i do want it but it also urches(sp?) me to be so uncomfortable... and worse when i dont want any and dh is all over me..  
-decaf lattes?? lol i wish... i still have to have my daily dose of caffeine if not i wont survive the day...
-my bath is always hot but why is it that its not supposed to??
-i can still manage to put my socks on but my shoes are a hassle so i only wear shoes with laces or boots when dh is around to put them on for me... today hes not so im wearing socks with slip on shoes lol...
- i wish i had the money to spend 8000 on baby stuff but i dont... and if i did where would i put everything? she already has sooo much stuff....
- I finally gave in to the recliner and had a much better nights sleep... dh wasnt too happy though...

[HaYnSweetie]

LMAO! Sex feels like a chore now...im usually in bed before my husband but i always know i am gonna be fighting him off lol! I usually dont sleep in much clothes or if any at all...but now i go to bed in sweats, a long sleeve shirt, sports bra LOL and he STILL tries to take my clothes off...sometimes i just give in just so he'll stop nagging me! Never in my life did i think 5 minute sex was soooooo long!

[SunWorshiper_26]

Majikat I am all about the decaf lattes from Starbucks too!  And I sometimes think my bath is too hot too so I only stay in 10 min also lol.  

[Majikat]

-I have religiously taken my prenatal vitamin since the day of unprotected sex even when I had the flu and couldn't even keep water down.
-I want sex so often throughout the whole pregnancy that DH can not keep up.... and I get really mad when he says no :(
-I have a decaf latte from starbucks almost everyday. but i did give up my addiction to cola
-I am ridiculously lazy since I threw my back out in august.... other than my crazy nesting (cleaning and putting baby stuff up)
-all my baby clothes are washed and I have my hospital bags ready to go!
-I am quite emotional... I seem to get upset very easily
-I have gotten a bit of the jealous bone
- I hate all of my friends who have seemed to disown me since the day they know i was pregnant
-sometimes my baths might be too hot even tho my skin does not turn pink but I only stay in for 10 mins to be safe.
- i have spent approx. 8000 on baby stuff .... even tho i don't work... I am obsessed with baby shopping
-I stopped tracking the number of Tums I consume in a day
-I am way more laid back this pregnancy compared to my other 2
-I am extremely paranoid about labour this time around cause my last one was ridiculously painful despite it only being 30 mins long
-i cant wait for this pregnancy to be over... it has been much harder and much more painful than my other 2
-I have been under too much stress throughout the pregnancy

[lil_lady25]

trh0819 - What's a maternity suit?

I'm glad that I wasn't the only one hating sex. I was starting to think it was just me! How could I be into it when I felt like a fat whale who's jiggle was more than a little "junk in the trunk".

[alyssagillstrom]

i really dont get how i have to pee every single hour on the hour. WTF. i cant sleep for more than an hour at night.
my ilttle girls stretches and kicks are hurting so bad thati  have no clue how shes gonna fit in there if she gets any bigger. id never change having the achiness though.
im ready to be done being preggo. ic ant control my emotions and im always bitching about pain
i have been complaining about my doc because she keeps saying all these aches are normal. im sure shes right. but they sure dont FEEL Fing normal.
i too may hit somone who tells me to relax and to not worry about "it" screw you.
i do like that ppl get up from their chairs and let me sit because im preggo..it does make me feel weird and rude to take their seats. but i need to sit.
i hate my thighs and my huge boobs. my boobs are filled with stretch marks. thank God for BioOil. i think its working as long as its not all in my head.
my husband gags when i pass gas. yes TMI. i blame it on the baby jokingly :\
i wont go a day or night without a bra because im so terrified of then sagging and stretching even more. :\
i religiously take my vitamins and put on my BioOil.
i cry sometimes in themiddle of sex because ifeel so gross.
although all i want is sex now. the whole beginning of being preggo i didnt even want to think about it.
i cant wait to work out or at least TRY to work out and drink a lot of pop and buy clothes in a normal person size.

well thats all for now i spose.:P

[trh0819]

Thank goodness I'm not the only one. Mu husband thinks it's funny although he doesn't actually laugh at me. He just knows I'm not a crier, but it's all I do now when it comes to baby stuff. We walked in to meet a pediatrician yesterday and when she asked my due date, I had to take a deep breath because the tears almost came again when I realized I was sitting across from a doctor who might be caring for my baby.

[SunWorshiper_26]

These all make me smile and Trh it makes me feel less stupid that I can't talk to my belly either. I admire how on top of things you are!

[trh0819]

Here ya go...

I worry too much as many of you do things I think about doing every single day but don't for fear of something going wrong.
I haven't had caffeine since April. I drink water, milk, and occasionally a decaf latte.
I haven't had sushi in just as long and crave it almost every single day.
I eat healthy although I barely eat anymore because I feel my stomach is about to explode.
I missed my vitamins once and freaked out. Haven't missed since in morning or evening.
I haven't had sex since May but hubby is too afraid so I don't have to feel bad about it.
I haven't had any back aches and my breasts aren't growing so of course I worry something is wrong with me.
I am sleeping well for the most part so of course that makes me worry, too.
I burp all of the time. It's so gross. But I never fart, so I guess that's good. HA!
I wear slippers to school. Yes, actual slippers. Thankfully they're cute.
I've taken one baby class and am registered for two more. I've pre-paid with my OB and am registered with the hospital.
I'm registered for daycare next fall when school starts back up.
I want to pay extra for the maternity suite even though I know we can't afford it and hubby won't tell me no.
I am closing on our new house TOMORROW and moving THIS WEEKEND and have been more stressed about this than anything else.
I pray I make it to February 1. That's my last day at school and I really need to make it until then.
I am addicted to shopping for baby stuff. I don't even think about buying things for myself anymore.
I am exhausted from dealing with my mother and try to avoid her at all costs.
I am contemplating not calling her when I go into labor.
I am sad about contemplating not calling her when I go into labor.
I feel like my in-laws and friends are far more supportive and excited about the baby than my own family.
I love my belly. It's the rest of my body that I hate... but that's nothing new.
I finally got DH to agree on names. We still don't have a middle name for a girl though.
I hate, loathe, and totally despise strangers who want to touch me.
I may slug the next person who tells me not to stress about anything.
I cry every day... for no reason... and for every reason.
I never talk to the baby because I start crying the second I begin talking.
I can't get through reading a book aloud to the baby because I'm bawling by page 2.
I am beginning to feel sad knowing I won't feel baby kicks inside of me for much longer.
I think this has been the most amazing experience of my life (pains and all) and I cannot wait to meet my baby!

[lil_lady25]

Haha some of your ladies posts were so funny yet very true. I've had the girls but here's my confessions from the second half of the pregnancy.

I also hated sex and would only do it occasionally to make him happy. I got no pleasure at all from it and couldn't wait for it to be over.
I couldn't sleep for more than 4 hours a night in the last month of pregnancy because I was so uncomfortable and was getting up so frequently to empty my bladder.
I passed gas like it was going out of style.
I couldn't wait to go on Maternity Leave not only to meet my babies but also for a break from work which stressed me out each and every day.
I ate terrible in the last month - pop, fast food, candy, cookies, ramen noodles, ect. Nothing healthy sounded appetizing.
I hated the way my belly button looked and hated even more when it was touched.
I never thought that being a mommy could be as rewarding and special like people say but now that I am one I feel that my kids make my life worth while. I couldn't imagine my life without them and would give my own life for either one of them. I can't wait for you first time mommy's to feel the way that I do.

[SunWorshiper_26]

I rarely wear a bra anymore
Still haven't packed my hospital bag
Still eat sushi on a regular basis
I ate 5 POUNDS of clementines the other day, 5 POUNDS?! where did I put them all?!
This pregnancy has made me want to kill my inlaws
I've never felt more fat in my entire life
When people tell me I look big I cry and when people say I look little it makes my day
I'm close to starting a fire and smoking this kid out :P seriously 40 weeks is TOO long!!
I think pregnancy should only be 30 weeks, clearly g-d is a man because he failed to realize that 40 weeks is too long and that the baby gets TOO big!!
I use afrin nasal spray like it's going out of style. My OB said it doesn't work after a while but i don't care it's what gets me through the night.
I'm afraid that once this kid comes I'll never sleep again
I take benadryl daily because I seem to be allergic to the entire world now that I am pregnant. I even get rashes on my scalp and butt cheeks!!
I never threw up so much in my entire life until I got pregnant
The next person to tell me "just wait" as in just wait it gets worse I'm going to punch them in the face and follow that up with a string of profanity.
I hate sex while pregnant hate it so much it hurts and uncomfortable and i just won't do it needless to say I've done a lot of other things since then...
I miss caffeine SO much. Energy drinks and lattes
I also miss HOT baths I can't wait till baby is here so I can take super hot steaming baths
I don't tell many people for fear of judgement but I am under drs orders to take vicodein twice daily in pregnancy for my fractured spine and pelvis
I also don't tell many people but this baby was conceived through IUI and fertility meds after 34 months of ttc and one miscarriage
I miss bending over, putting on my shoes easily or even breathing!!

[wannabeamommy0124]
