My very dapper cat son

Having a dog is Stressing Me Out. ):

Wow, what a relatable representation of anxiety in today’s Ava’s Demon update http://avasdemon.com

Meanwhile in babby's first serious solo music-making attempt, I've realized I'll need to...record guitars. Instead of MIDIing it. Because otherwise it sounds weird af.

It’s really not even all that grea— *beat drops* (> ò ︵ ó)> <( ò ︵ ó )> <(ò ︵ ó <) <( ò ︵ ó )>

Listening to the new Backstreet Boys song on repeat because I am a trash human, just throw me in the trash

Hi Mastodon. My husband and I are heavily considering getting a dog. I have many concerns (baby on the way, money, etc) but ACTUALLY my biggest concern is Fivel (one of our two cats). 😅 I don’t know how he will react to a dog. He can get aggressive towards strangers and I worry about him hurting a dog.

Any advise on how we could prepare our cats or get them used to a dog? Or maybe somehow test-run how they respond to a dog before we get one?

I meme'd, I don't know if it's funny but here's a look at how my brain works

Everyday I’m feeling more and more like the Venus of Willendorf. #arthistoryjokes #pregnancyproblems

My cat keeps opening the door then rubbing against the door then wondering why the door closed. ಠ_ಠ

So this is getting closer. But instead of feeling like the people in the replies going “yeah but it’s cute! ☺️” I’m like “ahhhhh 😱” BUT. Seems like it’s a common-ish feeling especially for first-time pregnancies, so. 🙃 https://www.justmommies.com/forums/f1832-2010-playroom/2004448-feels-like-theres-alien-inside-me.html

I’m just trying to find a descriptor for how I feel so I can feel less crazy/alone. 😰

If anything I kind of relate to BIID but not so severe that I want to harm myself, and at least there’s an end in sight, AND it really is an alien “body part”, not just the neurological perception of an alien body part. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_integrity_identity_disorder

It’s like…the realization that something inside me is totally independent of me, has a mind of his own, and he’s just going to keep getting bigger and I’ve got like 15 weeks to go. I don’t know how to describe it. Something under my skin literally isn’t me and if I think about it too hard I get creepy crawly feelings.

I’m feeling increasingly weird about my body. I tried googling “body dysmorphia while pregnant” and that came up with a bunch of results of people feeling unattractive and gross or people with eating disorders struggling with the weight gain and that’s not really it with me.

Baby is kicking more and more these days and it’s a reminder that something in me…isn’t me… Which is like, duh, but it’s alienating.

that feel when you are buried in cats but your laptop is about to die ):

Me 2 days ago: Omg I felt the baby move! 😮
Me today: ok baby chill out

Time for an ill-advised 7:30 pm nap.

Cat purring against angry womb feels really nice, FYI. It’s like a heating pad but purring and fluffy and loves you.
