You and picksthemusic wanted details on the seamless bras I posted about a few weeks ago. I went back to the store where I bought them and the brand name is Rene Rofe. This is the exact bra I got.

I told my boss this morning, and he was very excited (I knew he would be), but then he told me I wasn't allowed to lift anything above 10 lbs anymore. *sigh*
bricco - sorry about your mom. I would be annoyed too. Stick with your plan, it sounds like a good one.
We finally went to watch Frozen today (I waited for it to be a kid's club movie at the cinema because then its reduced price tickets), and it was lovely. I think I might want it on DVD. Even my anti-all-things-girl-like son loved it.
I'm working on staying distracted today. Feeling pretty good, but didn't sleep a wink last night. Up with contractions and peeing all night.
I have I think only 1 episode left to catch up on for Scandal now to be ready for tomorrow's season finale. I don't know what I'll do if I don't have a baby by then! Binge watching it has been keeping me sane.
My mom is annoying me. She told me that she would really prefer if I told her when we left to go to the hospital (as opposed to my plan the whole time of telling her ONLY if they actually admitted us and said a baby was coming). I reiterated AGAIN that we were only calling once we're admitted. ESPECIALLY because I think a lot of my stalling of labor stems from my own anxiety -- telling people we were heading there would only up that to a crazy amount, so no. She wasn't happy with my answer, but frankly? I don't care.
OMG. I do not necessarily want people to know that we are GOING to the hospital. Way too much pressure! Your mom needs to back down.
I am remote nesting right now. I keep buying things for the house that we "need" to help get organized. I seriously have THREE huge amazon packages set to arrive today.
This cold is kicking my butt. I stayed home yesterday but I'm at work today. I feel guilty because I haven't worked out since Friday. The longest I've ever gone without working out is 4 days in a row, and that was after surgery. Usually even if I have a cold I can do the elliptical or something but with already getting out of breath quickly from pregnancy, I just can't do much. I also feel bad for taking cough meds but it's on the okay list from my OB. Baby's been quiet the last few days, I hope it's not because I'm sick. She still moves, just not as much as some other days.
I am highly annoyed with this new guy who wears too much cologne. It is making my nose super itchy, my eyes are watering and my asthma is trying to flair up and I am bout to tell him to go home and take it off. Of course I can't do that but it would be nice.

I just looked down and realized that my dress has a small hole right under the seam for the neckline. This is the third time I've worn it and it's GAP. Wtf, man? I even washed it on delicate and line-dried it. It's big enough that it needs to be fixed so it doesn't get worse, but small enough that the amount of thread needed is almost not worth the effort. At least I can sew?
My son just lost his first tooth. I suspected it would be today so I made sure I got a nice coin at the shop earlier. When he is sleeping I am going to wash and shine it so the tooth fairy can bring him a shiny coin. He is very excited (and cleaning his bedroom because I might have told him that the tooth fairy does not enter untidy bedrooms, lol)

I am right there with you. I actually went to IKEA over lunch to get some pieces for a project I suddenly need to get done after sitting on it for a year.

I have been on the verge of tears all day at work because of the crap they pulled yesterday telling me I'll be switched to work for a different attorney starting on Monday (posted more about that in my "no good, crappy day yesterday" thread earlier this morning). I am to the point where I just want to quit and walk out, and part of my frustration is knowing that I can't just quit because I need mat leave in 2 months, and I have to come back after for financial reasons.
I have a feeling that the next 2 months are going to be very long dealing with this shit at work, and my H can't say more than "suck it up, you have to deal with it" (which is true, but really sucks to hear). I see a lot of tears at work over the next 2 months and I hope the manager feels like crap for putting me in this position at 7 months pregnant.

I think I'm sick. I threw up at the doctors yesterday. I threw up last night. I pretty much feel like vomit is coming up my throat 24/7 and my stomach is making crazy noises. I hope this isn't the second coming of ms. I had 2 beautiful weeks of feeling ok with no vomiting. I also feel really guilty about calling into work. I had half day yesterday for my appt but took the full day after getting sick and I called in today because I was up all night getting sick.
I was talking to my friend who is a new parent about how hard we can be on our parents, especially our mothers considering we are becoming mothers soon (and she is already). She noticed since giving birth, she isn't as hard on her mother as she was before since she has a daughter of her own now. Her husband even mentioned this to her, that give your mom a break, the last thing you want is our daughter feeling the same way about you.
I thought it was pretty interesting, because I sometimes complain about this or that about my mother yet one day soon I will be a mother and I don't want to be that annoying, controlling, overbearing mother. I've learned to accept my mother as she is and it's honestly made me complain less about her. I know at the end of the day she wants to and is a good mother and that's really all that matters. I know I will make mistakes as a parent, and I won't be perfect.
I *wish* that I could go into nesting mode. Our house is still a disaster, and we have nothing done for the baby. I don't think it's in my DNA. (wilted)

I'm too tired for nesting
What I need is a maid I can tell to do things as they occur to me

I'm craving a Frosty. Like a crackhead needs a fix but feel bad asking DH to go gett me one.
Errybody in my house has had a stomach virus since Sunday. First my husband, then me, then the kid. Even the freaking dog has the runs. I was up at 2:30 this morning cleaning if up. I'm so done with this week already.

I think I have the beginnings of stretch marks on my belly So far they aren't streaky or bad, but there are a couple little purplish discolorations that I'm sure will get worse. I guess I can't have everything go so well.
I also hit 30 weeks yesterday and I can't freakin believe it!!!! Only about 10 weeks to go! I feel like I'm not ready yet, there's so much I still have to do!
