Day 13
Well my parents passed away so I didn't get to tell them. But they were fantastic parents and I know they would have been happy. I did tell my grandmother who was happy - I had to whisper it to her at the 4th of July because I could never get her alone. We told my MIL over the phone because she lives 5 hours away.... Guess it took her by surprise as all she had to say was are you joking??? She has since expressed her happiness over her first granddaughter.
@musiowskij, big and tall store???? Granted I mostly got second hand preggo clothes but mainly because I could justify the cost for short amount of time but they design the clothes for comfort like they are typically thinner material so you don't sweat as much and are designed to make you look preggo and not fat.... Well not as fat lol
My MIL is crazy. And wants everything to be the old fashioned way too, lol she doesn't believe in baby showers, she says my baby is gonna have bad luck because we found out what we're having, she doesn't believe in picking names before its born and how I shop for maternity clothes when I can just go buy big and tall clothes from Walmart. Like really.. Lol she needs to chill I'm going to tell her off one of these days maybe that will straighten her up. Your MIL is probably just shocked she seems like a nice lady for the most part, I like how she calls you and comes to see you. :) @lauraj
@musiowskij, I have no idea why she said that - she comes to see us pretty often for the distance and calls me rather than her son.... We are actually pretty close although during the pregnancy we have disagreed about a few things more I think about old school preggo rules vs today's standards. It ticked me off at the time but now it's funny. Hope things get better with your MIL! That sounds rough.
My mil is the same way!!! Oh my goodness. She said exactly the same thing and whenever she calls her son not me cuz she never cares to talk to me she asks how her grand dog is. She's more interested in my dog than her first grandson. Oh and she lives 15 mins from us and never wants to see us, she says we will plan to see each other in the near future. What the hell! I don't even want my son to be near her she's so goddamn rude!!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
Big and tall is like clothes for fat men lmao or really tall men. I go shopping at like marshalls or ross for my maternity clothes if you heard of those stores it's like discounted clothes pretty awesome. @lauraj
