  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Love the kicks, knowing I have my very own miracle growing inside me, knowing I'm going to be a mom, and that I've made DH a daddy! He'll be such a great daddy! He's wonderful with his neices and nephews. I like my belly sticking out and all the ohhs and ahhs.

What I can't stand is - 1st trimester neasuea and vomiting, lower back pain and my emotional downs.

I didn't exactly love the first trimester at all, I was never sick but just more tired than I've ever been in my life. But this part of the pregnancy I'm loving! I'm beginning to feel the little flutters of the baby moving and I LOVE that and like linnis said, my hair looks great and my skin has this nice glow too :).

What I hate as I said at the beginning I was more tired than ever and now I hate the pregnancy related insomnia I'm experiencing. The extra weight with my growing tummy makes it a bit uncomfortable to sleep. The things I love far out weight the thing I hate though.

How fun~ I was just thinking this would make a good topic ^_^

I LOVE not having a monthly period! I can happily skip (ok not literally) past the women's products at the grocery store and not wonder if I'm getting low. I loved my first ultrasound. Even though it was at about 8 weeks and my tadpole was very.. tadpole-like, it was amazing to think that little jellybean would grow to be -my- baby. I'm itching to see it again~

I hate the hormones. I've had days were I'd be crying constantly. I hate the horsepills we're supposed to take. I tried the liquid stuff but.. it tastes like vitamin coating! (And it's scary green...:sick:)

After a couple of miscarriages, I just love being this pregnant... and am not really 'hating' anything :D Just whining to hubby occasionally when I can't get up off the lounge without effort (at 13 weeks! I'm going to have to stay off the thing for the last 3 months! lol), or sciatica plays up, or I need sleep after an hour's shopping... :p

I love everything Cright mentioned:

Love the kicks, knowing I have my very own miracle growing inside me, knowing I'm going to be a mom, and that I've made DH a daddy! He'll be such a great daddy! He's wonderful with his neices and nephews. I like my belly sticking out and all the ohhs and ahhs.


I love the looks I get when someone notices my belly. I love having a reason to go to bed early...

...but I hate being so tired all the time! Seriously, apart from that I've had it sooooooooooo easy, no morning sickness except for feeling a teeny bit nauseous now and then, no constipation, no heartburn, baby's doing fantastic. I just haven't felt fully awake for the last 5 months.

And I LOOOOOOVE my drs visits, had a level 2 ultrasound yesterday to check baby's heart (dh has a genetic heart condition) and everything looks fine, amazing to see her move about and how perfect she is!
