It's that moment when they go from being passive organs to food source. I found that loading up on comfy yet super cute bras and nice tops helped a LOT during both of my pregnancies
My kind of feel the same. They are starting to become less perky, and feel like lead weights. The smaller one is catching up the other, but even still its smaller in comparison. Not to mention stretch marks.. :( youre not alone at all.. my husband still loves them though hahaQuote:

My nipples feel like when you get a shirt with a decal a tad too small, then put it on and it stretches the decal. My nips are the decals.
Hahaha! Awww! I feel for you!
If I can offer a little advice from the far side of the age spectrum, one day you will reach an age where you wish you had all that time back that you wasted worrying about your boobs/belly/butt/wrinkles/etc.
BELIEVE THEM WHEN THEY TELL YOU YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
Old Pearlie, PEACE OUT! ;)
Not really a bitch, not really not. I haven't been riding my horses as much lately because I feel like I'm too unbalanced, this has caused me to lose almost all of the muscle from my legs. The doctor said I could still ride, just go easy, but I got my hella toned legs from jumping and running on my horses, which obviously I'm not going to do
While so far along.
Oh my god your hair is so longggg..! I only dream of that kind of hair! I just cut all of the deadness off my head with curls it is so short now.

I have so much anxiety???? like I don't even eat lunch at work bc I'm so anxious it kills me. and I have to improvise a mermaid top in the next week and get time off and aaaaaaaaaa
So I got my Mahina Merfin tuesday, it is now Saturday.
When I go swimming, I go to my uncles pool a couple of towns over, I have privacy, and am able to just do my thing.
Wednesday we went swimming, I have to take my little sister, otherwise I get bitched at for not including her and essentially told by my uncle that I can't swim there unless I'm considerate to her.
Which i am totally fine with. No problem taking her at all. But Wednesday when I was TRYING to test my monofin that I got SO I COULD STAY IN SHAPE WHILE PREGNANT, every four seconds my sister demanded I hand off my monofin. Which i-again- had no problem doing because I wanted to see how it did on differently shaped feet and different swimming methods so I could give it a review from more than just one person.
But my sister keeps demanding I let her have the fin every time I turn around, every time we swim. I told her that she can get herself a finfun since she has a job, and only wants to play in it, not for fitness, and I'm trying to swim with it as much as possible because I'm trying to stay in shape (my doctor actually informed me that the dolphin kick with the fin will actually help strengthen the muscles in my stomach needed for labor) and essentially got told that I'm a selfish bitch. Her friend agreed with Me(her friends sister is also pregnant). But then we both got told we were assholes.
If she goes to the pool without inviting me, nobody bats a damn eye, But if I do the same thing, I get bitched at and told not to come back unless I'm "nicer" to her and "considerate to her feelings" when they don't put her up to the same standard.
My husband works almost all day, and when he gets home, it's dark and too late to go to the lake to swim.
She's 16, has a load of friends to swim with and WAY more opportunities than I do.
Not only that, but at the moment, me and my husband only have one vehicle between us.
While my sister has her own truck.
When we go to the pool, my dad tells us to use his big truck so we can fit the fin, towels, etc.
It has begun to piss me off beyond belief because I don't want to have the stress of fighting with her if she chooses to pick a fight over the fin when we swim, so it's caused me to put off swimming at all. But I don't want to stop swimming especially since I can't ride my horses to stay in shape.
*hug*
I hope your sister buys herself a fin.
I do too. I feel so bad because I feel like I'm being selfish, but my husband bought it for me because I wanted a new one for fitness and if I'm only getting to swim in it for a minute or two, then have to wait however long she decided she wants to swim in it, only to have the same thing happen a few minutes later, I may as well stay home.
Wait, she is 16 and you have to take her along!? At first I when I was reading this I expected her to be younger, but heck at that age you shouldn't be having to take her along every time. Is there any way you could find somewhere else to swim and not tell her or your uncle?
Our local pools are constantly filled with people, and some don't allow fins of any sort. The only other place would be the lake, but me and my husband only have one vehicle and he takes it to work everyday, and the lake I wouldn't want to go without him.
We were talking about getting an above ground pool, and using that until we finish our pool.
Wow...I'm so sorry, Shimmer. I hope you actually get the above ground pool.
I was expecting her to be a little girl when you I first read the story. Gosh, I'm sixteen and I don't even remember the last time any one of my friends or myself acted like that... no offense. And those double standards are such a bother, I understand that :(
You need to encourage her to buy a fin of her own if she wants it so badly, and remind everyone else that the fin you're wearing is yours. Maybe you can get her friend to persuade her as well? It seems like she understands.
Hugs!
Tell her to stop acting like a spoiled brat and get her own freakin' fin!
Seriously! Why are you letting her boss you around? If you have to share, get a timer and split the fin usage into half hour intervals. If she doesn't like it, she can stay her ass at home.
With a stressful situation like that sometimes it's easier to say fuck it. I learned that one the hard way when I was pregnant.
And here we see the bad cop, er, siren :lol:Quote:

I do not want to rub anyone's name through the muck, nor do I want to fight over this because fighting won't solve anything. I'm a moron for letting this get to me and engaging at all. I can share the screenshots, but I hope I won't have to. I forgot my meds today, so that didn't help me much.
Basically, I tried to argue against Allen Sherrod with news articles as preliminary searches for evidence, but I could have been nicer and not call him a dick or an asshole. He did get extremely rude, and I have the screenshots to prove it. However, I do want apologize for my part.
Basically, the meme said that:
Attachment 37750
My response to this was that I thought it was wrong and that I never heard a democrat or Muslim say this ever. I have no idea how a comment like this turned into what it did. I have family that served in the military, and even my oldest brother including me have given the military service an honest thought. My brother has sericeous, and he was declined, and I have Bipolar Disorder and ADHD. The odds of me ever getting an honest chance at the military is almost non existent along with many careers. I can't believe I was such a fool to get baited into this.
I'm thinking that sharing this here will escalate things...this might have been a bad idea. If it wasn't for the threat to beat me up....
Well if it makes you feel any better Dylan, I can't open any of your attachments.
