Conversation while shopping at the mall today with a sales associate:
SA- when are you due?
Me- clearly this is my son (pushing h in the stroller)
SA-oh! I just thought you were expecting......
Me- obviously not......

Hahah I guess I don't look as good as I thought....

That's the worst. People are idiots.

Someone said that to me when I was leaving my LC, maybe 1 week postpartum, while i was pushing my newborn in the stroller and I had just told the woman that he was 1 week old. 

Idiot!
The few times I've left the house without a kid I've been asked when the baby is due.

No matter where in his crib we put DS down, he always ends up on his stomach in the same exact spot and position. Too funny!

Dd is down for a nap, I can finally pick up my house before we start our NYE festivities... But I'm sitting in the living room eating a bag of Reece's cups..... No self control

Got my fortune cookie with my chinese food.  Fortune was "Ooops……. Wrong cookie!"

Not sure what that means for the new year.

DD1 had a serious case of bed hair his morning.

LO started army crawling last night! Except he'll only go after my phone.

Haha that's totally how we got DD1 to start crawling, chasing the phone!

Just got out of urgent care with DS. Double ear infection and croup. My poor sweet boy I feel so bad for him.. |)

@THD7580‌ , hope your LO gets better soon.

@THD7580‌ I hope the little guys feels better soon!

Thanks ladies.. Poor baby we've had to do breathing treatments. His wheezing isn't as bad but he sounds like a puppy breathing through his mouth panting it's so sad..

Aww this makes me sad. Hope he starts feeling better soon

@THD7580‌ in sorry that this was the way to start the new year. But I'm glad you have the breathing treatments. Hopefully every thing clears up quickly.

My 2 yo went poop in the toilet all by himself yesterday. Super excited since he's never done it before.

Aw @THD7580‌ that's sounds awful! Hope your babe is feeling better soon!

I have banned myself from using box cutters. I was breaking down boxes from a move and ended up with 26 stitches.

Now, I can't lift C because of the pain in my leg and that's definitely not good because I'm now a single mother. Thank God for my parents, I don't know what I'd do if they weren't around to help me.

kendy20

@yayglitter‌ , glad your parents are close by to help, that's always a nice thing to have. I'm sorry things are rough right now, I hope things get better soon!

Thank you, @kendy20‌.

I clicked onto my baby center birth month club tonight... Never done that before.
First thread was a lady asking what size diaper comes after 7 because her baby is growing out of 7s already. What the heck!

I saw that too. And she says the kid weighs 28lbs! That is twice the size of DD.

WTH, my 2 yo weighs 30lbs and wears size 6. And she's the same size as a lot of 3yo at the playground, she's 85percentile height and weight.

Good luck @yayglitter‌ , I hope you'll heal quickly to enjoy all the baby hugs.

MIL threw another whoa is me pity party and now DH agreed to monthly visits to her house.  I am just so tired of her emotional manipulation of DH.  It's unnecessary drama.  If you want to see the baby, call and invite us to dinner!!!  But she won't, because she's got an "open door policy" and doesn't feel like it's necessary to invite her own children over.

I am proud of myself.  Told DH this morning that the drama with his family is totally unnecessary and wanted him to know I am going to have little patience for it. Told him I didn't want DD to grow up thinking this is normal behavior.

I really don't care if my MIL and SIL end up hating me, I just don't.  I don't want DD to think that emotional manipulation, temper tantrums, avoidance because you didn't get want you wanted and pity parties, is how adults act.

Since your DH agreed to the monthly visits, he should go alone. Stay home and keep DD with you.

@thd7580, how is he feeling today?    @yayglitter - ouch!  Take care of yourself.   @ho11yday - congrats to your little guy!


My friend's little guy is having a major surgery this morning.  He's just a few weeks younger than my son.  I feel so bad that they are having to face this.

He's a little better today. He's got 3 meds to take and the prednisone he hates because it's so bitter poor baby. We had to hold him down and he gagged and choked the whole time it went down. Ugh.. Makes me so sad. Thanks for thinking of us!! Hopefully this full dose today he will start feeling better tomorrow.

If I let baby down on the floor I have to sit with my feet in the chair because all he wants to do is bite my toes. He only goes and plays if I pull my feet up where he can't reach them. Little weirdo.

Ha ha, here too! She also tries to chew on my flip flops, which is even grosser.

theoryofwhat

My kid has no boundaries. We were just sitting and waiting on a script at CVS and she reached out with gooey hands (from the graduate puffs) and straight up wiped her hand on the lady sitting next to us. I quickly apologized and she said it was no problem.

The poor woman tried to act like she wasn't bothered by it, but I saw her pull out some wet naps and start scrubbing her sweater as we were leaving.

@Haleighkay90‌ , did you get the recipe from Pinterest? I found one from there and my hubby loves them!

QOTR

I'm an idiot for trying to give LO Advil in the dark while he's hungry and trying to get to the boob. We're both sticky and I have no idea how much made it into his belly.

THD7580

Ugh DS just woke up and crying. I went and gave him a few oz and as soon as he sat up he projectile vomited all over me and it was all mucus. He's been crying for a half hour. We sat in a steamy shower and Rubbed him down with Vicks. He's panting so hard because he can't breathe. DH took him and rocked him to sleep finally while I sat and cried. I seriously feel awful for him. DH is going to sleep with him in the recliner so he can be elevated and sleep better..

Yes! I haven't tried it yet though. Do you use the one with powdered sugar in it?

I just use regular sugar since that's typically what I have. But here's the recipe I use :-)

Phrases you never thought you'd say: "mommy is not abandoning you. She just needs to put on pants." DS is now crying whenever he can't see one of us. I was holding him and he spit up all over me so I had to put him down to change.

I was cleaning out under the sink in my bathroom and found a bunch of internet cheapie OPKs and HCG test strips. They expired in November. Just for shits and giggles I dipped a few of each. Lol. Apparently I miss peeing on sticks.

And FTR, not pregnant! I don't even have my cycle back yet. Although the OPKs had some questionable results. You know, because they're expired! 8-}

THD7580

Thank you everyone! We went back to the drs this morning and his lungs are clear! Thank gosh. I think after he vomited and coughed all that crap up it helped. It's now just upper respiratory so steamy showers and saline for us. Hopefully after his round of antibiotics today his ears will start to feel better. I appreciate all of your prayers and support for DS!

I like the dramz, but this was way way over the line and I wouldn't put it in the fun category.

I so agree.

It was not fun drama at all. Glad it got removed.
