I thought to myself that she must have never had kids. I look exactly the same now as I did with DS so it's not like he hasn't seen me pregnant before. I dunno, I just pop very early on, that's just how I carry.

A lot of my clients are making comments on my belly now, thankfully nothing rude. I gave an adorable little boy his shots last week and afterwards, his mom tells him there's a baby in my tummy. I was just praying he didn't ask where babies come from, but he didn't care a bit.

I always carry big. When people ask me when I'm due and I say July, all I get is the poor you looks.

My emotions are all over the place this week! I went from nearly raging at my husband last night after he jumped when I went to tell him I was getting ready for bed (he was wrapped up in playing a video game and I apparently startled him) to straight up ugly crying when my dog made a cute noise when yawning. All in a matter of 10 minutes. H wisely brought me chocolate and rubbed my shoulders to help calm me down. Hahaha. He looked so helpless watching my roller coaster of emotions. I feel way more chilled out today at least!

Now that Iâve ditched the winter coat, I get all sorts of oohs and aaahs at my belly. The young ladies at daycare are particularly enamored. The one teacher didnât even realize I was pregnant until today and she couldnât contain her excitement. It was cute.

I told DH about feeling like I was going to pass out earlier today. His answer was âmaybe you should stay homeâ. Yeah thanks for the realistic advice.....sigh.

Hello hemmoriods, my old friends I've come to sit with you again Because a itch softly creeping Left its seeds while I was pooping And the vision that was planted in my butt Still remains Within the sound of pregnancy

I'm up. I slept fairly decently despite my eye. It feels best closed lol. I woke up around 9ish feeling like there was something in it and used more saline. I didn't see anything though and I know at this point it's not safe for me to remove anything anyway. Luckily I fell back asleep by 11ish. I'm going to work but I'm sure I'll leave early. Depending on how early, I may call and see if I can get an earlier appointment. My eye looks like shit so yay for 100 people asking me if I have pinkeye.

DH was diagnosed with shingles yesterday. To take his mind off of it, I have begun sending him all of the vasectomy information I can find. There will be no more babies for me, nope! He is acting like a vasectomy will be so terrible, and I have no sympathy whatsoever.

He is acting like a vasectomy will be so terrible, and I have no sympathy whatsoever. That sucks about the shingles. My dad had it years ago and he said it was painful. I'm team we have the babies, so the guys can be uncomfortable for a couple days in exchange. Lol.

I'm sorry goldenbird, I hope you are feeling better soon Thanks. Constant fluorescent light seems to be the least aggravating so silver lining. When the sun starts coming in the tall windows by the doors it will suck though.

People really need to learn to STFU and stop making comments about pregnant women's bodies cornflakegirl. I hope your eye is feeling better soon goldenbird! RE: to vasectomy talk, My H asked me when I was going to get my tubes tied and I gave him a sh*t stare and told him that he was the one getting a vasectomy. It's way less invasive and it can be reversed if we ever change our minds.

You canât win with bump size. I showed late with both of my pregnancies (I only just now have a noticeable bump at 22 weeks but I can still hide it easily with the right shirt) and everyone always tells me I donât look pregnant. When I was full term with DS no one believed me. I had some growth restriction too and was really self-conscious about it so whenever someone said âyouâre tiny! You look like you couldnât be more than 6 months pregnant!â it always made me upset. Moral of the story: keep your comments to âCongratulations!â or âYou look good!â

I stopped for my weekly Starbucks and both espresso machines were broken. I got a chai, which I like, but it's not what I wanted. I felt bad for the baristas. They were swamped. I would not want to deal with angry customers.

My boss told me to stay home and rest today (and not making me use a personal day) so I am hanging out at home. I'm thinking about starting the baby's scrapbook. đ

How do you think telling a pregnant woman who is full term that she looks tiny is going to make her feelđ

I'm feeling so sluggish today. I've been going nonstop for the last few days and need to just chill today. My patience with DS is wearing thin and that usually happens when I'm overtired. I'm looking forward to watching the new season of The Handmaid's Tale later on.

Someone I work with (unfortunately, an upper level manager, but fortunately, not a manager in my chain) both makes comments a couple times a week about my belly (usually not particularly rude, but just unnecessary), and then yesterday told me my salad was proof that I was eating for two (normal, entree sized salad, and also SALAD! It was a pile of veggies). Her desk is in the center of the office where I need to walk by regularly to get to the kitchen, copy room, etc., but I just don't want to hear it.

cornflakegirl - work has been stressing me out and it has impacted my patience level with DS. It sucks. It also doesn't help that the last few days that DS hasn't be listening at all. Like, clearly trying to be defiant. Ugh. potatocakes - That's so unprofessional and unnecessary. I'd probably make a joke or passive aggressive comment so she knew to keep her mouth shut going forward - lol
