hi all--i too hope all is well with twin.

not a great day here--i did get some baby clothes/blankets etc. washed up that were gifted to us by family, and managed to fold them, but still have to put them away in storage (some of them are sizes we'll use later so I gotta get the storage bins out). DH and I are barely speaking today--long story but he's frustrated at me, and I'm frustrated at him..couple that with my hormones and I've cried too much today (which likely annoys him more)...so now i'm trying to stick to myself and if and when he has something to say then he can say it--what a shitty saturday...

at least we got some chores done cuz we are both irritated and trying to avoid each other--so we are doing things around the house...i feel exhausted...been annoyed/crying/frustrated for 6 hours now...

Membas!! You know what they say - never go to bed angry!! The hormones are crazy now! worse def than 1st or 2nd tri

 

[blessedmomma]

angela- yay on the furniture!!!!! you will have so much fun arranging everything in its place and dreaming of things to come

melissa- good job on the new diet. it takes a lot to change a diet completely around

membas- sorry you and DH are fussing. i am not having it out with mine but i am with you on the crying thing. im glad mine refuses to argue with me or we probably would. he would rather apologize for doing nothing wrong than fuss about things. i woke up at 2am this morning and have been wide awake all day. cried all morning, very emotional and cant control it. he was at his mens group at church and when he got home he told me to take a nap, prayed over me, and started the dishes. i laid on the couch for about half an hour and couldnt fall asleep. i dont understand how i could be so exhausted and not be able to fall asleep, its ridiculous. it makes me angry. have been achy, crampy, and im sure a pain in the butt to deal with all day.... im not sure how he keeps his patience with me and stays calm and happy when im being such a butt. i wish i could bottle his peace sometimes.

awe Melissa, your hubby sounds fantastic! I can't even get mine to help me out very much. It's not helping my hormones at all. I think I am more like Membas....I haven't been crying, but I sure what to kick things!! I am just so bitchy this week. I get into a good mood, but then there is always something to put me back into a bitchy mood.

Membas

my lower back is killing me today...hoping the heating pad will do the trick tonight!

 

[braijackava]

Can't sleep latley. Hopefully this is not a sign of things to come or the start of sleepless nights. I still have at least 7 to 8 weeks left, i want to sleep!

Hugs to all who need them, I've also been more moody lately and know its lack of sleep and being uncomfortable, OH keeps checking he hasn't done anything wrong - bless him. I'm trying not to nag but I really want him to quit smoking before this one arrives - the smell is really bothering me at the moment so I find myself trying to avoid him. He has said "tomorrow" but we have had quite a few " tomorrows" so will wait and see. If he admitted he wasn't ready to quit I'd leave him alone - as an ex smoker I know that unless your ready it aint happening but the thought of him trying to comfort me in labour and the smell making me feel sick doesn't sound appealing!

Brai - hope the car sells soon

Anababe -tried your link but there was no add as friend button?? If your interested send click on mine - ta

With sleep I manage to get about 4 hours, need a wee and then take ages to get back to sleep and if I'm lucky get 2 more before having to get up. Currently find I have to fold a pillow in half and put between my knees - seems to take some pressure off my bump when on my side, also been putting lavender on a cotton pad next to the pillow and taking rennies (ant-acids) just before going to bed.

Melissa well done on the diet, hope it carries on going well.

Sorry for those I've missed - take care

Thanks ladies! Here's the furniture we decided on:

I really love it, but of course it is backordered. Story of my life LOL!

It will be a race to see if the furniture or arrives first!!

 

[braijackava]

More people coming to look at the car. I know you guys are probably sick of hearing it, cause so am I. To make matters worse my unemployment was cut off today, a month before it was supposed to. And that was the rest of my rent money, which I was told I have to pay by tuesday or else. sigh......

 

[MumtoJ]

Fx Brai, hope one of them buys it - is there anything you can do about the unemployment

 

[readynwilling]

Very cute furniture angela!! My crib is similar shaped.

Hope someone buys the car Brai!

 

[braijackava]

Woot Woot sold the car!!!! I dont know about the unemployment, I need to call tomorrow when they open. I am going to celebrate selling the car by buying a diaper bag and going grocery shopping! Haha sounds great......

 

[msarkozi]

Angela - that furniture is beautiful!! I love it!

Brai - way to go on selling the car!!

Cathryn - OH keeps telling me he is going to quit smoking before the baby comes as well, and well, time is winding down. We just got him a prescription for champix again, but he hasn't started taking it. I am guessing he won't ever quit smoking. I can't stand the smell of smoke either, and to make matters worse, OH smokes in my truck, even though I asked/told him a million times that there is to be no smoking in my truck! So my truck reeks of smoke, and I can't stand getting in there....but he thinks that by rolling the window down, the smoke smell doesn't get in there.....yeah, right!!

 

[kns]

I can't believe he still smokes let alone in your vehicle. I quit in feb last year and my partner at the same time as she would be trying for a baby. I would never smoke around kids or in someone's car that didn't smoke. I felt bad havin I sneaky one on way to hospital when kim went in having contractions. Hope he quits soon for the sake of the child and you x

 

[msarkozi]

Thanks kns. He used to sneak smoking in the house as well, and I totally flipped my lid on him. Now that I have been pregnant, he knows it's an absolute no to smoking in the house, and he goes outside. But he thinks if I'm not in the vehicle, then it's ok. It's annoying as hell! My truck has always been smoke free, and I would like it to stay that way.

 

[blessedmomma]

angela- that furniture set is just gorgeous!!!!

ladies- i dont blame you about the smoking thing. although when i smoked i honestly felt the same way that if you rolled the window down in the car it doesnt stay in. now that im not a smoker i realize how ridiculous that is. when im even around someone who smokes outside i can smell it on them. i cant believe i used to walk around smelling like that while thinking that since i always smoked outside it didnt get on me. i cant even stand to walk by someone smoking now, it stinks so bad. i honestly dont think they realize how much they stink. im sure it doesnt help being pregnant and sensitive to smells either.

we just bought a new house and the neighbor lady has a daughter that is my girls age. when they go play over there i have to have them shower cuz they stink so bad. we usually like to open our windows in the evening and let some cool air in, but cant cuz she smokes inside and outside and it will come right in our windows, YUCK!!!!!

im soooo glad i kicked that nasty habit

 

[2nd time]

My dh keeps telling me that having a baby shouldnt make me tired lol will someone tell him its exhausting espesily with a 11 month old to chase

 

[codegirl]

hmmm..... your making a whole other human being. If that's not hard, tiring work then I don't know what is!

 

[readynwilling]

My husband doesn't complain too much - but i was getting a look from him today at home depot cause i was waddling along too slow behind him LOL. But i am def more tired. Going to bed at 10-10:30 and getting up at 7 and i am still wiped.

 

[2nd time]

yerh poor men it must be hard for them watching us get fat lol

 

[msarkozi]

2nd time! OH constantly asks me what is wrong...I keep telling him he should try being pregnant and then you tell me!

Sara - I am so jealous!! seriously, you get that much sleep?! I fell asleep around midnight last night, was wide awake at 3:30, fell asleep somewhere after 5:30 again, and awake by 9:00! I'm exhausted today, and a huge list of stuff to do.......
