    Aww @052806‌ , creepy internet stranger hugs! I've only got DD and the dog, and I still feel like I've been in survival mode for about a month. Hope your day is better tomorrow!

    Also... I had a UO and was super excited to post and now I can't remember. Baby is eating my brain cells!

    I'm not a fan of sex reveal parties, but I have zero problems with cutesy sex reveal ideas. When expectant parents order sex reveal cupcakes, ask a friend to fill a box with blue or pink balloons, let their older kids spray covered cans of silly string, etc., it makes me smile! As long as involved parties are being paid (like a bakery) or are your excited-to-help friends/family, and there's no gift-grabbing, it's all fine to me. Even FB posts revealing gender make me happy. I don't think it's AW-ing or akin to putting your kids' genitals on display. (Though I don't want to see your fetus's penis - words will do.) I think it's being excited about having a son or daughter & sharing that excitement with others. Meh.


    FWIW I started this like 10 hr ago, but was stuck at work all day with a ranting drug addict & couldn't get back on TB. I have no patience for lying, manipulating, screaming.... I could never be an addiction counselor. Those people have hearts of gold.

    1. I think sushi is disgusting.
    2. Dancing With the Stars is quite possibly the most overrated and boring show I've ever seen.
    3. I hate Instagram. It's full of people trying way too hard to look interesting.

    Now for my own UOs- 1. I will side eye the hell out of you if your balance your infant seat on top of a shopping cart. This is up there on my list for me with ff too early of course. 2. I don't understand what is so amazing about hummus. 3. I watch 19 kids and counting. #sorrynotsorry
    This is why I need this board. I had no idea this was a no-no, probably because I see it everywhere. Does the weight make it easier to tip over?

    @MauiBliss ITA with your views on video games. I'm not a huge gamer but H is. He would never ignore me or our child for the sake of gaming. I was pissed when his dad made a comment like "just think what kind of skills you would have developed by now if you put your time towards a black belt instead of those games." Seriously? You're going to criticize how someone spends free time [man who watches/has watched every movie in creation]? 

    My UO: I don't like cake. 95% of the time I only eat cake/cupcakes for the frosting and filling.

    I don't quite understand the Sex vs gender anger

    I understand it may be more of a "pet peeve" like spelling and grammer. I also understand it must be frustrating to see it 485945 times a day if it irks you.

    maybe I missed the memo, but I haven't seen anyone use gender or sex in a derogatory manner.

    I have a close friend who is trans-gender and even he/she doesn't seem to mind when someone just doesn't understand the difference.

    Read these articles. Yes. These are just the most recent ones that I've heard of. Please, don't ever do this. I feel like I should say something to moms about this, but I don't want to feel like that crazy lady. Like, how do I approach them...should I say  like "Hey, I noticed you baby is on top of the cart, you shouldn't do that?"

    I can't stand anything that has chocolate and peanut butter combined. Reeses, moose track ice cream, blech! I love both things separately, but together they're just sickly sweet.

    And @psychbear‌ I also hate cake. And dougnuts, because they are so similar. And until I learned to make my own pie crust, I would just eat the filling out of pie because the crusts were gross.

    UO: I think anything pumpkin (except pumpkin pie) is gross.

    -I don't like chocolate
    -I just started liking lattes like a year ago, but I think the ones from Starbucks are the worst
    -I hate the phrase knocked up, and the terms prego, preggers, preggie, or anything else like those

    @cafecreme‌ Thank you for posting those articles. I have heard some of you mention it, but never knew the why. I definitely won't be doing when our babies are here.

    SO and I refer to me as "Preggy", as if it were a proper noun. For example, "Preggy needs to eat" or "Preggy is exhausted". I never use it in reference to someone else, like saying someone is preggy.
