Lately my little guy has been awesome. Taking naps, rarely fussy, silly and playful. However, when MH gets home, I put on my best exasperated face and tell him LO was fussy all day! It works out though because while MH gets me a beer and rubs my shoulders, I stroke his ego by saying LO always calms down when Daddy is around. It makes him feel like the best dad ever and I get to relax without feeling guilty and LO gets QT with happy, confident parents. Win, win, win!

Literally made me LOL!

Now I have one. Today I was so proud of myself for attempting my first walk with the stroller and two dogs. I got about a quarter mile from my house before I realized I was still wearing my slippers. Didn't go back! I rocked them all the way around the park.

I also managed to lose a bag of dog poo along the way but found it on the way back.

I swear I used to have a brain.

FFFC: I avoid posts by women who use TB as their blog.

I consider going to Costco a good time.

DH and I go just for the samples. We drive the cart straight back to the food section, make our rounds, then leave 10 min later.

Yup @crunchymama...but the AW ones are easy to ignore. I MUST torture myself with all the BFing posts. It's my personal hell. I know we have more to talk about...like, thanks to @sleepy33, we can discuss poop stains!

The esthetician in me loves waxing and getting waxed. ESPECIALLY my armpits. feels SODAMNGOOD @bkeane619 @mrsstuessywi

I love getting my eye brows waxed. I had laser treatment above and in between, but they won't do under. I go every 4 weeks. Fuck plucking. I don't like inflicting pain on myself. I'd rather someone else rip the hair off.

ppt sex was an epic failure ( only tried once so far)... we were rushing a little and we just couldn't get it in... so my confession is that I have had more fun alone in that dept since baby was born...

It took us 3 tries before we could make it work. And I had a c-section, so I don't know WTF was up with that!

I had my pits lasered...best idea ever.

I had eye brows, armpits and all my pelvic area. I had to stop treatments in August and will be going back in January. Almost done with them. I want to do my legs next. It's so expensive though!

DH got home and so the three of us ran to target so I could pick up a few things. LO was crying on the way there and I could smell a faint sign of poopy pants so I told DH maybe it was best I just run in while he stays in the car with LO knowing full well he would end up dealing with a dirty diaper. No fucks.

I tried to hold my babe today and make myself breakfast (okay let's get real.. I poured myself some cereal) but while I was trying to get the box of cereal out of the pantry it came crashing down and almost landed on the babe! He got super scared and jumped and I felt bad.. But then I laughed because his face was so funny.

I'm horrible.

I'm seriously thinking of taking a break from TB. All you girls talk about or post about pertains to BFing. It bores me. Even when it's a thread that has nothing to do with BFing...someone will still slip in something about BFing. I get that it's all consuming and whatnot, but for those of us who cannot or do not BF...it's like enough. That is all.

So because you had a hard time BFing (and I feel for you, I really do. Your BS was awful and was a large part of your problems, and I am truly sorry for that), others can't get the help they need because it makes you feel bad?

BFing is hard physically and emotionally, and a lot of women just had their babies less than 2 weeks ago. They deserve to get the help and support they need, too.


There is a difference between the posts asking for help and the aw posts about having so much bm milk they water the plants with it and bathe in it.

I am so irritated with my MIL re: Christmas plans. And I know it's super bitchy of me but honestly I just don't care. In her mind everything is a competition between her and my parents, and it's just going to make everything super difficult and uncomfortable.

@supersecretstatus what else could you confess that would shock us at this point?? So curious now...

I'm not sure about how "shocking" any of it would be since I'm one of the "hot messes" of this BMB (I wouldn't be surprised of I've ended up on a few sticky notes). However, I don't want to possibly (probably) be ostracized for confessing stuff just to cure board boredom.

I actually don't find you to be a hot mess at all, nothing that you've said this far has ever shocked me or grossed me out. Nothing I haven't already heard my close girlfriends or family say before ( my family and friends are very open and "different").
ETA: I don't mind your shocking statements or opinions what so ever \:D/

I don't consider you a hot mess. I'd say you've got more on your plate than most of is do but I feel like you deal with it to the best of your ability.

Besides I'm a pretty accepting person. It would take a lot to make me ostracize you.

Same here.  I'm sure I could prove immensely entertaining, but... nah.  I love you ladies, but I'm not flame-retardant.

Thanks ladies. I have to admit that I feel like a loser/weirdo a lot of the time compared to y'all (see the honeymoon thread).

Well you did what you could afford. I totally get that especially since me and DH aren't "well off" and neither come from privileged families. I don't have a lot of luxuries that other women on here have but I'm perfectly content with my life.

You did what you could do nothing to be ashamed of. I come from a pretty dysfunctional childhood and while I have a more normal life now . The dysfunction still creeps in here and there. I think a lot of people would be shocked to hear some things from my family life.

Every time the kid gets fussy I stick a boob in his mouth. He wants no part of pacifiers and I have no patience so human pacifier it is.

This. It works.

This has been my day, mostly because I managed to misplace all three pacifiers.

Confession.. I broke down and looked at my hooha the other day in the mirror and was pleasantly surprised.. I'm still scared of everything and told my doctor I'm never having sex again when he asked me about BC..

I have yet to look. My DH finally did though, he said it looked all healed up. However, he said he could see something shiny in there. WTF would be shiny in there....

I picture a magician finding the quarter. 

LMFAO , that's all I can say to that! Most awesome mental picture ever.

Not Friday anymore but...I am shocked at the number of moms who bed share. I am not talking about people who decided to do it before baby and have done research on how to do it safely. I am talking about the "I didn't want to but it's the only way my LO wills sleep so I push the bed against a wall/put a blanket behind them, and snuggle him. She sleeps I good that way." So much of what I read in these posts is so unsafe. I get that you're tired, I'm tired too but I don't understand a quick fix solution where the consequences are so high.

I realize it's Saturday but fuck it..

Here's my FFSC:

I full on punched DH in his sleep last night. He kept stealing the sheets and snoring so crazy that he woke up our LO and after I sweetly caressed, tapped and whispered at him..I worked my way up to screaming his name and NOTHING. I got a "bit" irritated and his arm is probably a "bit" sore today.

Yup FFSC since work had me too busy to bump yesterday:

I don't think I want another kid, maybe I'll change my mind but trying to find someone to watch one is hard I can't imagine 2.

I bring my kid to bars. No not once, a bunch of times. All my friends work in bars around the city and when we go on an outing it's usually to visit them. I text a group of people we all hang out in a discreet area and have a few beers. The sick thing is he loves it, lil dude sleeps or acts like an angel so it just makes me want to continue the cycle. These places serve food too does that make it better? No.

I'm going to be soothing her anyways, I figure why not use the method that is basically foolproof.

There are some days I think I hate my DS lately. He is deft going through the terrible two's plus having the baby has pushed him over the edge. He was always such a sweet good kid and it's like the past two months demon spawn has replaced him. He doesn't listen AT ALL. The moment I start feeding S he does the most random bad things he knows he shouldn't do. I know he's doing it because if everything being overwhelming and he's processing it all. Sometimes I just can't stand him now and it makes me sad. It would help if my DH was home more often the past few weeks he's been working 12 hr or more days. My Mom came and stayed last night to help out and it was sooooo much better thank goodness.

My DS is 3 1/2 and it's the exact same at my house. He was always kinda wild and just all boy but it's way worse now! He's so jealous and acts out non stop. Especially when I'm nursing. I don't know if it's cause it makes him more jealous or because he know I can't get to him to spank him. I hate getting on to him all the time and it makes me sad but I don't know what else to do! I guess this too shall pass...

FFSC ....

I flat out hate DH right now. So glad I waited until I was married to have a baby ... so I could do everything by myself

As far as I'm concerned as long as you're being safe about driving/bfing then who cares where you're hanging out! Unless it's a strip club or crack den

My confession is I really didn't get cleared for sex last week after my OB appointment, but DH and I did it anyway and continued to do it all week.  My other confession is the sex has been better than ever and I don't regret doing it a week before I was cleared.  Third confession, I had to take a picture of the box of condoms at CVS because it has been so long since we used them that I forgot which type we used. Fourth, Bridget bought DH a bottle of tequila with a note saying she is sorry that she cries so much and maybe this would help.  My baby's first gift to her father was liquor...so not ashamed!  Finally, I am so sick of the BFing threads just like @Amjoy25 and want to start seeing posts of juicier shit whether we have to make it up or not!  I only have two weeks of maternity leave left...I want good posts ladies!  

Yesssss!! Our sex has been off the charts as well. Yay for us!!

Same here! Sex has never been better. Lucky us

No kidding.

Oh you haven't slept in 3 days and the baby had been screaming all day while I was out jacking around? Here let me wash dishes for you, make as much noise possible, then tell you how tired I am too.

Fucking douche bags.
