It's great to have a place to vent about TTC. I'm also glad to have a place that I can get advice about infertility treatments. Everyone is so nice and helpful too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-196078 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 10:21:30 +0000 Mrs. Pen 196078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyneswith: Yup, that was me too. And it's so much more fun/satisfying to make it than it is to buy. I had so much fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-196075 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 10:19:55 +0000 cyneswith 196075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: Well, I'm seeing my cousin in about 10 days (it'll be the second time since Hurricane Katrina we've seen each other), so I want to get the project I promised her finished. And making our own nursery stuff makes more sense (since I know at least one person is making our kid a blanket already.) Plus I have about 10 more projects that require a sewing machine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-196061 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 10:11:57 +0000 Mrs. Pen 196061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: THANK YOU! My husband doesn't quite understand it, but he knows it makes me happy and he likes that :)</p> <p>@cyneswith: heh yeah. I tried not to be "that mom" on facebook so I kept my pregnancy and now "mom" posts on FB to a minimum. But it's such a great outlet to have for sure. I don't know how I'd have all my questions answered otherwise. Half this stuff just isn't in the books, and real life answers from other moms/preggos is soo much more reliable.<br /> oooh you did decide to spring for the sewing machine tune-up, eh?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-196043 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 09:57:14 +0000 Shutterbug 196043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: Agreed! We are secretly TTC and I think I would go completely insane if I didn't have an outlet for everything that's going on with me. Thank you @mrbee and @mrsbee! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-195979 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 09:07:18 +0000 Alivoo01 195979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Girl, I feel ya! I'm not preggo yet (we're TTC), and we haven't told anyone about us TTC so HB is such a life saver to inquire, vent, and share with everyone! Love this community!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-195884 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 07:16:05 +0000 mrbee 195884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup that's exactly why we made Hellobee! You can post stuff here that might feel uncomfortable on other sites... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-has-made-me-into-a-junkie#post-195734 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 20:27:42 +0000 cyneswith 195734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A Hellobee junkie! Because I don't want to bombard facebook or my friends (almost all of whom have multiple kids) with all sorts of random observations or questions. Such as:</p> <p>If it were possible, I think I'd be wearing out my ultrasound DVD! I love watching him kick and wave and stretch and suck his thumb and shoot away from the wand.</p> <p>I never thought I'd get excited over being able to go #2 as an adult. Stupid constipation.</p> <p>This kid is going to be SUCH a chocolate junkie! It's all I've wanted to eat for about three days!</p> <p>How on earth did I take a 4 hour nap today???</p> <p>I need to take my sewing machine in for a tune-up this week, but I don't want to be tempted to buy nursery fabric this month!</p> <p>What age do babies start tasting what their mom eats? Some places say it happened a few weeks ago, some say I've got six weeks left.</p> <p>And see, I could've started a thread for each of those easily! Anyone else have random thoughts they just need to spew forth somewhere public? </p>
