What do you mean, Butterfly? I thought you already had the gender confirmed? I'm confused.

The BIG 20 WEEK U/S...the one insurance pays for.

Yes, I know, but do you mean for gender confirmation, or just because you're excited to see your little one again?

That's just what they call it right. LOL I need to go and do the important U/S so they can do all their measurements. I'm still DYING to know just where i'm measuring because I haven't had one since 6 wks 5 days and I'm convinced I'm at least a few days ahead of "their" measurement because I didn't do transvaginal at the time.
I will get a DVD and more pictures too, so I am VERY excited about that!

Ohhhh, I think I read this wrong the first time around. I read it as you were itching to have your big u/s (as in, you were anxious for it). But I went back and re-read it and I see now that you literally meant you are ITCHY. LOL! I am such a dork!




Anyway, sorry about the itching. I have no clue what it could be, I was never itchy in my pregnancies. Perhaps just the skin stretching as your belly grows? Have you tried cocoa butter? I know it worked well for my SIL.

No worries! LOL
Luckily I didn't itch that much today, but I will still keep an eye on it!

So frustrating evening... DH got a call from his mom saying "There is a party tomorrow at ___ and you and __ are the guests of honor" And he goes "Uhhhhh what party!?" And she goes "Gender Party".

OMG....... Guess who wanted to host it... my SIL who wanted to buy the original gender ultrasound so she could be the first one to find out and ultimately ruin the surprise. ARRRRGH! We never would have told his mom anything!
But everyone is DYING to find out apparently.. and I'm afraid she can't keep it in much longer.
This is our party and our surprise, and our announcement.. I was just angry as hell...that she would take that from me.. and that ironically wanted to throw it at her new place. Yep, this is exactly why she isn't in my life.. she makes my BLOOD BOIL!!!!
Well luckily it won't go down now.. until the day we have it on because we are going to throw it, and I asked him to call his mom and make it clear that it's our party and we are throwing it!
Okay I need to go breathe now and calm down.. just had to come on and vent.

Oh god! I feel for you!! I'm so sorry u have to go though this..I'm so bitchy I think I would've beat he up lol I am so snappy now I snap at everyone now when pushed to that point. Why is she trying to take your shine & be sneaky about everything it's jus not nice! Eventually you might have to have a "heart to heart" with her because if not I don't think things will change

It's okay, she wants a close relationship..and many ppl tell me to stay away from her. She's not DH's sister..she's HIS SIL too! lol We will just talk at family parties and call it good. I don't want to be close with anyone in his famiy, it's better that way! MUCH less drama! lol

He called his mom up and well, his mom really wants to do the gender party at her house.. and plan with us so I guess that's okay. She's REALLY excited about it. So we will get together with her this weekend and plan.

As far as your situation, I've been thinking about you and what to say but it's hard. Where are you staying now?
Maybe some space from DH is the best thing for now?
