I remember clicking on the "Im going to have a huge baby posts," because i was getting worried at the end.
I was huge and one doctor told me i should be worried. SHe also told me to lay off the ice cream. Bitch. Then another doctor told me i was fine, he would fit. I tried the best i could, and i am so jealous of the ladies who gave birth to bigger babies vaginally. I tried the best i could getting this glorious 9 lber out.
but then again I remember feeling like an ass complaining how tired I was throughout the first trimester. After work I would lie down on the couch until the dinner that dh cooked was read, he would then help me with the dishes when we were done, and I would go right back to the couch.
Insane! I remember all the mooks being tired, but not having that choice. They had to chase after toddlers.
I am sure I has several mooks eye roll at me. However, I also learned a lot from them. I still learn a lot from them, real life ones and you ladies.
I think the, "oh just you wait" comments are annoying, but very, very helpful, especially when they are acompanied by a little stiry. Yes, I was super uncomfortable at 35 weeks. Heck, I had intense tailbone pain that brought me to tears from early on, but I remained cognizant that thers had complications and/or were more uncomfortable. It doesn't have to be a pissing match, just don't be so self centered. Kwim?

1st tri is a bitch! A nasty, nasty bitch.
And no, you can't sleep or rest the day away because #1 would never allow it.
I really don't know how I am going to survive the first tri next time. Last time I was a zombie, a gagging, toast stack eating zombie. But, a CHILDLESS zombie.
How am I going to prepare nutritious meals for my toddler when last time I barely cooked for weeks? And what about lying down as soon as I get in the door from work? Nope.

ugh
1st tri was a Ginger ale and Lemomhead filled blur. I'm pretty sure that h made most of the meals, and L watched tons of tv. My goal was to just to be awake long enough to kiss her goodnight.
I dont see the problem with what jnoellee was saying. Idk, maybe its because I could imagine things being worse... ie two babies. I felt huge... I can't imagine having two in there! I'm sorry she's so uncomfortable. And she's just complaining, like everyone else on there is.
You guys, I was saying that to you, about them. Not to them, or to you. I was saying it like, 'oh my god, just stop already... youre not even at the end yet, and youre not HUGE yet"
I am not telling anyone they dont have the right to complain unless they are pregnant with multiples. I complained my first pregnancy. However, it is annoying to HEAR constantly now, in my situation.
Lmao. People complaining about people complaining about other people complaining. I'm sorry, i get where you're coming from jnoelle. Complain away, I'm sure it sucks. ::fingers crossed for 1st u/s. fingers crossed for first u/s::
No! I am short! Thad was iugr for no apparent reason. It was stressful to have my belly and my baby measure almost a month behind.
Everyone has a right to complain. This, jnoelle can complain about the complainers.
Gavel.
And people can complain about jnoelle complaining about the complainers! Complaints all around!!
That's true. I admitted to it probably not sounding fair and I understand not everyone understands where I am coming from. I am just trying to explain what I meant.
As a MOOK, I admit that these potty training threads have me making that one smiley with the raised eyebrow face.
Â
but its PEEEEEE. It's usually contained so nicely in the diaper and then all of a sudden you're unprepared and it just starts going EVERYWHERE!!! Uncontained pee is no joking matter. I was unprepared to know how to handle diaperless poop.
I hated all the "you just waits" the first time but now I really understand. I want to say that to everyone all the time, but that would be douchey. I admit I do with my cousin though. I am that annoying family member... She probably goes on her bmb and complains about me!
I admit to getting annoyed at the "I'm so huge" comments because I was so small! My doctors were scaring the shit out of me and I just wanted to be big so I knew the baby was doing ok!
I was right there with you. Lots of scary IUGR talk and excessive monitoring just because I wasn't huge.
I was so annoyed (and uncomfortable!) during pregnancy because no one would ever give me a seat on the subway/bus, so I stood for a 1.5 hour commute each way. In hind sight, I realize that I didn't look pregnant until the final month, and that's when people started standing for me.
I don't mind jnoelle's venting at all. I think I would be frustrated if it were my second time to the rodeo, I knew what I was in for, and I was carrying twice the load, and hearing people complaining about how hard their lyfe is half way through. We all have a right to complain, including them, and including her.
I never said she couldn't complain. I'm just saying that if someone told me to shut up and that I wasn't huge because I was only carrying one child that I would have major issues with that.
I guess I have an issue with how she worded her vent. That is all carry on.

She didnt tell them to shut up. She was telling us about it, and in a complainy manner, was saying like, "aaahhh, just shut up already". which is just complaining.
I'm sorry, I just felt the need to comment again. haha

Well as someone that carried TWO large children and carried extremely large, I guess I felt the need to speak up. I have never said that she wasn't allowed to vent it was just the way that her vent came off.

IMO, pregnancy sucks for all. All pregnants can complain. If you are carrying multiples I allow you twice (or thrice!) the complaints. Being pregnant is full of suckage at every turn.

Not if you were irishsara or bebeetmoi! They loved being pregnant. Crazy women!

I didn't mind being pregnant after the morning sickness stopped, midway through second tri. I miss being able to eat lime popsicles with wild abandon without getting side eyes from my H, though.

haha yes!! I also miss being able to down a giant double cheeseburger and have people cheering me on! Now I try it, and people are like, "...you're really going to eat all that?" Sad. I really love cheeseburgers.

They are obviously big huge LIARS.
To clarify. I loved being pregnant...until I got to 36 weeks.
I don't mind the complaining usually. I just roll my eyes and move on. What bugs me the most is the MOOKS who come on to say "You don't need a swing, or a bouncy seat. Its a waste of money. MY baby didn't ever use it!."
That shit pisses me off. DS1 never used it, but DS 2 loved the swing. I'm glad I had it and saved it and didn't have to buy it.

I admit, I'm one of the crazy women who loved being pregnant, for the most part. Morning sickness wasn't fun, and I wasn't too pleased with how big I felt, but by the end I was so happy to still be pregnant, I was on cloud 9.
