Longest Thread EVER! (aka Random Thoughts Thread )

Re: Longest Thread EVER! (aka Random Thoughts Thread )

  • So I totally checked with my other March 12 moms, because I'm definitely the odd one out on this board when it comes to the newborn napper on the PNP. I've never seen such animosity against the thing, it boggles my mind. You would think I laid my newborn to sleep in 17 layers of loose blankets bunched up around his head waiting to suffocate him. Seriously. This is a baby in a newborn napper. It's not a death trap.
    You're far from the odd one out. Who insists this is such a horrible place for the baby to sleep? That's what it was MADE for. If I could love your post a million times I would.

    And your DS in there is frickin ADORABLE.
    EVERY TIME the PNP discussion comes up, it inevitably turns to "what about sleeping in the newborn napper" and I'm always the only one that says they did it/will do it again. I asked my other M12 moms and the large majority of them said they did and would again no problem. And the few dissenting opinions were all from people who are (self proclaimed) CRAZY anxious about SIDS/sleep/random stuff like that so I wasn't surprised that they didn't at all.

    Also, thank you. That was the day he came home (so 4 days old). He's nekkid swaddled in the receiving blanket because he managed to pee through his diaper, and then after getting changed was starving so I just swaddled him up, fed him, and he was out like a light. :)
    I would have had no idea that the newborn napper was so evil.  I still can't see why it's a big deal when the baby is a newborn and it not rolling.

  • Just had a super shitty conversation with my SIL. Apparently DH's dad (I don't consider him a FIL) showe up at her house with gifts for her baby. She then said how excited she was for her son to have a cousin close in age. He responded with 'who cares this is the only grandchild that matters, he's the most important". Fuck you dude, you will never be in my sons life! I'm so hurt and mad and annoyed all at the same time.

  • FFTC: MMMMBop just came on my Pandora and I may have started rocking out using my spoon as a microphone. 

    OMG I seriously just got a bump boner for you.  I love Hanson so much-it's perfect for rocking out in my car at the top of my lungs.

  • @dani+california the point was for it to NOT be those people... Lol but I get that most don't want a FB group and think it's pointless. That's just what I would vote for :)
  • @dani+california We love you anyway! >:D< But honestly, I can't even blame you. I've been so absent-minded lately that SO is really starting to question if something is seriously wrong with me :( I can't help it that I'm clumsy, forgetful, and easily confused lately.
  • @aviola329 you're a superhero! I haven't gone grocery shopping by myself in like a month or two! The last few times I did it alone I literally hurt myself. When I get determined to get something done, I don't stop. And that's just too much for my body right now! Make the easiest/quickest/yummiest option as a reward :D

    I totally eat cereal out of my china bowls. They are Lennox Chirp and too cute not to get used, plus, what else am I supposed to do when I am out of clean bowls? I must have all the cereal!
    I love the Lenox Chirp collection!  We almost registered for that but ended up with plain white dishes and did chirp items for accessories like placemats, napkins, candle holders, etc.
    That's the set we have! I love it. :)

  • Alright, I know we've talked about this before but Amazon Mom. Who uses/used it? More specifically the auto ship?

    DH and I are think this is awesome, but I'd love to hear from others who have used their service.

    That is super shitty. I am sorry, how rude! why did your SIL indulge you with that information, I feel like it would be better not to know that?
    This...

    I'm sorry @Mamamonzo he's a total fuckface.
  • @Mamamonzo so sorry you had to hear that. He sucks and doesn't deserve to know your boy.

  • I miss Kellogg's Just Right.  That's what my mom bought when I was a kid, and I just remember it being super amazing.

    I haven't started it yet, I'm waiting to use my three free months when it would be useful maybe signing up next month after my shower so i can take advantage of 15% off registry completion.

    I am so sorry that this happened! You don't need that kind of crap. You, your H, and your baby definitely do not deserve to be treated that way! What a douche!

  • Is this what a growth spurt feels like? I've been very hungry last week, baby has been moving like crazy the last three days, and I'm crazy tired. Not quite first tri tired, but close. Seriously feel like I'm giving birth to an octopus.


    Yup!
