FFFC

Hadn't seen it yet today so let's get this thing going!

Here's mine: I think I would prefer to switch to formula at this point but I'm still breastfeed with high hopes of getting rid of this muffin top.

There have been tons of nights I just let LO sleep in her day outfit instead of a sleeper. She is currently still in her dress from yesterday and I don't care...

PoppySeedWindsor

To wake LO I sometimes touch her leg with a cold glass or bottle. Her reaction kills me every time. I figure I'm rewarding her with the boob...so it's okay, right?

I like self-expressing my ta-tas in the shower to see the spray of BM that squirts out. ">

And a few more.
I'm a shitty pumper... I'm on no schedule, and I pump randomly. Sometimes a ton, sometimes only like 4 times over the whole day. I know this is going to screw my supply, but I like sleep and being a normal human more.
Also, we moved cross country and I flew with baby. DH is driving with his BFF and should be here Sunday. I love it... He already misses LO, plus he gets lots of nights of sleep so I fully expect when he gets her he will hog her and I will sleep. It sounds glorious and makes me feel bad that I'm enjoying this.

Judge away, no cares. I live in California again, woohoooooo! Bring on the wine (and I'm not dumping it either)!

Edit: I have a ton more confessions but don't want to come off as the worst mom ever today because I'm in a good mood... Gonna have to spread those out and save them for next week...

I put LO to sleep in her clothes all the time.

You, my friend, are simply awesome!!!

My husband second guesses ea ch decision I make regarding our daughter even though I am the one home with her all day and have gotten to know her the best. Last night I told him every day he second guesses me he will do all the night feedings (because that has been me) or get punched in the face. Choice was his. He laughed but I gave him my "I am drop dead serious face"

Oops. I feel bad. Guess my hormones have not stabilized as much as I thought.

danamarie421

I have been out of the house without LO 4 times since he was born (he's 6 weeks) and I didn't feel guilty or worried. 2 of those times were just short errands and 2 were weddings and I was gone for 4-5 hours. I knew he was being well taken care of and I don't bf so I knew he would be fed when I was gone. I did miss him, but there was no mommy guilt here!

I spend way too much time on the Bump and Pinterest. I need an intervention, lol.

nicole mackenzie

I hate how much time DH spends in his phone yet I think I've gotten just as bad...

JessieAlbin

I think I love my kid, but I am still waiting for the "omg I can't imagine life without this tiny human" bond that's supposed to happen. It's still coming, right?? :-S

I miss being pregnant because I miss being special. Everyone was so nice to me and now it's like I don't exist.

Omg yes! Yesterday was my last time at my ob's office till February and I was sad about it. That was the one place where I mattered more than the baby did!

speechie517

I don't want to spend the weekend with MIL. It's her first time meeting the baby and I know she's going to try to hog her, so I kinda hope B. gets really fussy around her and needs her mommy.

maelic

I am pumping extra in part because I want a freezer stash so I can quit breastfeeding sooner. I'd like to feed her BM for 4 months but if I can quit actually producing said BM even just a day early it'll be so worth it. 

JessieAlbin

One more. Plain old baby hand prints and foot prints don't necessarily apply, but I think all handprint/footprint crafts that turn your kid's print into a butterfly or flower or other poorly drawn crafty thing are hideous. They are not cute. "Isn't that just the sweetest?? It's ants! Made of baby fingerprints!" No. It's right up there with all the ugly baby things that are deemed cute only because they are associated with babies.

I just might be the most cynical grumpy gills stick in the mud pooper of parties mom ever.

I'm giddy and excited like Santa is coming, for DH and I to have a date night of dinner and a concert. I pumped a while stash for this night. I know I'm supposed to feel like " oh no I'm going to leave my baby for more than 10min" but I don't. I love him but in stoked for some adult time!

Emily041285

I totally just put an "ad" on fb looking for a friend to watch dd so I can get all dressed up and go to a black tie I got invited to at the end of the month. No shame here...

We did this to celebrate our anniversary 8 days after Merri was born. I was already stoked then. Have fun mama!

sking72

I just fucke up cooking oats ... Guess the dog are getting second breakfast.

I'm mad at SO and to be a bitch I didn't send him any pictures of LO yesterday. I felt bad this morning because it sucks he doesn't get to see her half the week and sent him like ten. But I'm still mad

snmetz7

I got the all clear from dr today and am more excited about being able I work out than sexy time.

Before Vin was a month old Hubs and I went out in DC to a comedy show to celebrate our anniversary and had a blast! I was so happy to be able to go out and actually drink!!

This was me on Wednesday. I THOUGHT I would be excited for sexy time, but no...poor DH got all worked up but mama just wants sleep. And now I can start running again!

The dishwasher is currently sitting full and clean. I refuse to unload it, because I always do and I'm tired of picking up after every person in this house. I'm letting the dirty dishes pile up in the sink.

AmberLiz99

I'm tempted to use my mastitis (currently treating it) as an excuse to stop pumping.

This morning ds asked if he could have a Grahm cracker and I told him no because we don't eat treats in the morning. I promptly ate a cookie while he was out of the room

I wish we had family who lived close, not because I don't like the current distance between my family and I, but because it would be awsome to have free babysitters.

PoppySeedWindsor

@snmetz7 I'm right there with you!

DH and I have had 2 date nights already and I've had a girls night. We're also going out next week for his birthday.

I have zero problems and zero shame about going out and spending time with my husband. I'm with Quinn every second of every day...my marriage needs attention too! I'm so sick of people telling my husband 'you just wait until Jamaica, your wife won't want to leave the baby!'

Bitch please! I'm ready now-it's ONE WEEK out of an entire year I won't be with my child. I think I'll survive.

This may sound backwards but I think it's great you get to get away in the beginning!! Honestly I find it SO much harder to be away from a 4 year old than a baby. Enjoy your vacay!!!

I put DS in his halo sleep sack and it looks kind of like a dress. So I pretended he was a baby girl for a while to see what it might have been like. I admired his beautiful blue eyes with long lashes and called him Mrs. Nesbit.

Thanks for that! Just had LO rocked to sleep and laughed and woke him! Haha

Emily041285

Where in Jamaica @dani+california‌ ? We went to Montego Bay for our honeymoon and loved it!! Dunns River Falls is a must if you've never been

mallyandryan

The poor cat has only had treats in his bowl since yesterday bc I can't get DS to stop nursing long enough to go buy cat food.

I am secretly excited about going back to work Tuesday. I love staying with my little man, but feel like I don't get anything accomplished except diapers and nursing. I know that's important, but work makes me feel like I have a purpose.

michaelad3

We went to Jamaica for our honeymoon. We stayed at Couples Sans Souci in Ocho Rios. Couples resorts are awesome! 18 and over and all inclusive. It was fantastic!

I have been there actually! Headed to Sandals Ocho Rios. Got a butler suite...I. Can't. Wait. Ehehe

don't forget to do my scavenger hunt!

These are just gross:
-I used my DH's nose hair trimmer to buzz around my eyebrows today.
-I regularly pick out gunk from LO's eyes, ears, and nose, with my own pinky finger.

I'm a gunk picker too. DD has a lot of earwax that I get a lot of satisfaction out of picking off while I'm nursing her once it makes its way to her outer ear.

I feel guilty for wanting to switch to formula because breastfeeding is going really well for me. I kind of hope my supply drops when I got back to work so I can stop and not feel so bad about it.

Lindsay808

When DH is home, I sometimes plan my pumps when DD has that look on her face that she is about to be fussy. I can hear her crying from upstairs which increases my milk + DH's turn to deal with fussy baby. Win.

knotty-girl

I LOVE breastfeeding. I get to eat delicious cookies AND the weight just fell off. Plus I get to snuggle my little guy, and the happy eating moans and noises he makes just kill me!

I'm so jealous. My baby weight isn't going anywhere even with MFP and EBF.

maelic

When I get sad about my vaginal birth I remind myself that I actually wanted to be looser. I used to tear all the time during sex, so hopefully the having-an-enormous-baby helps with that.

Or maybe I'm lying to myself.

maelic

Also, I have a feeling the last 8lbs I have to lose are going to stick around until I'm done BFing and it's just one more reason to be resentful of it.
