And she constantly showed me pictures of cute babies because then I would have a cute baby.<strong> Oh and people kept telling me that the ultrasound could be wrong and it might be a boy.</strong> I had 4 ultrasounds since the gender one - I was pretty damn sure it was a girl. The heartburn one was true for me - Faye was born with a lot hair and I had horrible heartburn.

To be fair I was suppose to be a boy because I had my finger down there. LOL.  Though I could imagine it would be hard to get a girl mixed up.

Under normal circumstances I would have agreed that there was a possibility that could have gotten the gender wrong but after 5 ultrasounds (last one was one week before she was born) I think they would have found a doodle down there if there was one lol. Most women don't get nearly as many ultrasounds as I did though so most of the time there is room for error.

Oh I agree I was just saying I could see where they were coming from.  But you're right, after 5 I would think you would know what gender your baby is, heck after 2 I would hope you would know what gender your baby is!

Oh I know where they were coming from too and I've been that person too in the past saying 'it could still be a boy!' I think most people didn't get that I had so many ultrasounds and it was frustrating especially towards the end. Of course I was hormonal and cranky so that may have had something to do with my frustration :P

ETA - I feel like my posts are coming off as argumentative and I'm not intending to be.

Naw you are fine.  I know you are just trying to explain yourself.  :)  I could understand how that would be frustrating.  It would annoy me. :)

One of my friends on FB recently announced her engagement.  Since then its been non-stop updates about when the wedding is, where, all the little details, and so on.  That's annoying enough but what ticked me off was her updates (there were many) requesting people PM her their addresses if they were coming to the wedding.  And on her page there are at least a dozen discussions of "does this mean I'm invited?"

I'm seriously so tempted to send her BF and I's address to see what she says, as there is no way that we would get an invite since we aren't close to her.

Lately the one irking me a bit is the mother of the friend of BF's who died last summer. I love the woman, but she comments on EVERY status I put up, usually asking something about BF. Like, I'll post what I'm making for dinner, and she'll be like, "What is Jon having??" Or, I'll post that I am going to do something with BF, and she's like, "Oh, I like the "with" part!" Really? why are you so concerned with how much we do or do not do together? It's not all THAT annoying, but it is kind of odd to me.

The other is BF's friend Sam. I can't stand her. She and her husband got divorced in March because she cheated on him and lied about it and he caught her in the lie. A while ago she started dating a guy (found out from BF it is her coke dealer), and on the same day made her profile picture a pic of her on her HM. The ex-H wasn't in the pic, but really??? She's just a gross human being.Today I saw that her ex-H is in a relationship, and I totally "liked" it
