I feel like complaining.. voice yours here!
I want to go clothes shopping!! Retail therapy sounds like an amazing idea to me right now. But there's no point until after the baby weight has gone away. And I keep looking at baby things to buy, but really I don't need anything and can't justify spending the money on more clothes.. Errrghh.
Plus, today's supposed to be a WHOLE day off with DH but the PD scheduled ERT training for today... in Maryland. So he'll be gone all day, and the few things left to be done (hang a shelf in the nursery) will have to wait again. Because it's going over the crib and I can't reach it, my bump gets in the way - lol I've tried.. that was actually a comical site.
My overly happy baby girl!

Re: I feel like complaining.. voice yours here!
I am annoyed with DH's coworkers. One called him last night at 8pm (when DH goes to bed) to ask him about a conference today. DH didn't know about it and called another coworker for details only to find out that the guy DH called, the guy that called DH, and DH were chosen to go. DH was annoyed. About 30 minutes later, just when DH finally fell asleep, his phone rang again and it was either his boss or a coworker informing DH that the boss had voluntold DH to give a presentation at the conference today. So annoying. I told DH he shouldn't have answered the phone when it rang the first time.
I have my consult with the reproductive endocrinologist today and I'm super nervous/anxious. To top it off, I have the runs. I'm afraid to cough...or fart.
Ready for a funny story regarding awkward flatulence? So... Dh and I were attempting to do the deed for the first time since my belly really "exploded" in size. Very awkward, I could stop laughing... I tooted, on his balls. And it smelled. He was laughing, I was laughing, and then I just burst into tears full out bawling because of embarrassment and not being able to "please" my husband. Lol. Hilarious to me now, but I was definitely overly hormonal about it at the time.

That made me LOL! And that wouldn't stop me or my DH. We'd just laugh and keep going.
I needed this post today.
I'm tired of my ILs not being happy about Andrew and I house hunting. They really are getting on my last nerve and they never have one good thing to say about it. Sunday night we told them about the house we wanted, and it went into a lecture about how they don't like the morgage we would need, they don't like that we would live with my parents for a month or two while fixing up the house. Granted we didn't get the house (which is fine) but freaking act happy for once!
I'm tired of FIL not understanding that we can't go to their house for dinner Friday night. Sorry Andrew works late, I will most likely work late, and my mom will need to pick Xander up from DC for me. And no you and the family coming out to where we live will NOT work either.
One last vent about the ILs: I'm freaking tired of my son coming second to your other grandson. Yes we notice it, yes it makes us angry that you claimed a favorite grandchild, and your grandson will notice this when he's older.
I will say that Andrew is standing up to his dad a lot more now when it comes to our family and I'm proud of him.

Ugh I am not looking forward to going to the dentist tomorrow (yes I know I've complained about this before... I had to make the appointment 2 weeks ago). I am TERRIFIED of the dentist(part of the reason I haven't gone in 3.5yrs) And am afraid I will have panic attacks the whole time. I'm also afraid I'll have the runs tomorrow since I'll be nervous, and won't want to sit in the dentist chair for the cleaning and then the dental work. But I'd rather get it done in one day.
I am however, looking forward to having the day off with DH. He did volunteer to come with me to the dentist which I though was really sweet.
Also I'm really effing sick of the rain.

When I did my shots this morning, the second one bled pretty bad. And the only thing that I had close by to wipe it, was the alcohol pad. Ouchies!! I know that all of this is for a purpose, but I'm ready to be done with this step so I can start feeling better.

That is hilarious!
omg Mar, I would have been so embarrassed too; dh wouldn't be, but he would never let me live it down, ever.
My complaint - I feel horrible. I can't breathe at night, like my face gets all red because I'm gasping for air, then all the peeing, and who gets hungry at 3am? Me! wtf? My back and stomach are hurting so bad today I feel like I could puke (which I'm sure is nothing compared to labor, oye). Oh, and the baby is breech, so there may not be a labor, just a c-section. I keep reminding myself how much none of this really matters, but it's hard to not to complain when you feel like poo.
