I am actively refusing to open Chicken's christmas post (once I realized it was NOT about not talking about christmas) - since I actually don't want to talk about christmas yet.
We both have today off, so I was supposed to have a nice brunch with my DBF, but when I was parking (it's back angle parking) he got impatient & started yelling at me. Then he abruptly said for me to "take us home", so now I'm rage cleaning while he sleeps in the other room. I have really bad driving anxiety (Didn't get a license until I was halfway through 19) & he was being really mean. He told me to "grow up & learn how to drive" when he's the one being childish & screaming at me.
@lizzybean 16hrs of labour is long!! You have gotten me all anxious now. :-SS
Oh don't be anxious! It really was not that bad I swear! I was induced with Cervadil so I was at the hospital for that whole time, but honestly I just sat on a birthing ball for the first 10 hours watching TV with DH. Every labour experience is SO different, I didn't mean to freak you out!
Yeah, everybody keeps telling me that each labour experience is different! I wish I would know how mine is going to be (in advance). Lol.. Too much to ask for. I m going to need these 3 months for preparing myself. I am so glad we have so many experienced mommas here!! Thanks :x

UGH, this is just unacceptable. I'd tear my husband a new asshole if he spoke to me like that. X(

Yep. And after tearing him a new one, I'd take myself out to a nice brunch.

F15 January Siggy Challenge: What You're Looking Forward to Most after Baby Arrives
@selly08 no, I don't think you are. Part of me is sympathetic, because who wants to be a bitch about something like that if it's real? Another part of me feels like something is off. Plus she was kind of rude/crazy about all of it, so...I just don't know.
Yeah, my sirens are kind of going off there. I *do* hope everything is normal, though!

Exactly this! I don't know how to feel about it.
I slightly understand because I had similar feelings when we took W in for an endoscopy. I didn't want her to have something wrong with her but I wanted answers. The endoscopy came back normal and that meant we only got answers about what wasn't wrong with her.
With that being said...OP's delivery on the "normal" thread is the big problem. Her latest response is not helping the cause.
Oh yeah! I totally got her original post. But, her latest response rubbed me off in a wrong way. It sounds like she's trying to blame F15 for her situation.
@psychobutthead, maybe next time you can mention how excited your husband is about his son and hope that guy goes away for good. What a creeper.
@foxslaw men are such freaking babies some days. You should let him sleep while you get yourself a nice lunch or some other kind of treat. You deserve it after putting up with that attitude. DH has told me on occasion that I'm being a baby because I ask him to drive me places (only while pregnant because I get tunnel vision) but complains about how I drive when I'm the one that drives. I feel you on this one.

I can def understand. Been going through test for gastro issues for years. And again everything is coming back normal. It one way thats great I don't have crohns, cancer, or siliac. But on the other hand still have the issues and the docs just stand around scratchy their heads. I would never wish there to be a major issue just a reason for the problems I guess. But still her wording of the OP was just a bit off. Maybe explaining herself would have been better.

reminds me of being back in TTGP and someone would come in with all sorts of stupid questions about how "could I be pregnant", would get all butthurt, and then at the very end be like "Well it turned out I AM PREGNANT"
ok does anyone remember me.mentioning the creepy male teacher ay my school who said i should sell pregnancy test?
he came up to me today amd randomly mentioned to me how alot of his friends have adopted babies and how it all worked out for them and how he and his wife hope to adopt a child someday to even though they habe two girls. then he ended the convo and walked off.
im weirded out by that. he started that out of nowhere. is he like hinting to me?
That reminds me of the Friends episode when Rachel tells Joey her boss wants to buy her baby. Hilarious.
Mind twins! That is EXACTLY Where my head went.
"If I in any way implied that I wanted to buy your baby…I am sorry. Okay?
Last week when I asked you when your due date was, uh, I certainly did not mean that I felt that I was due your baby. Yeah, I want to be very clear that I understand that it is your baby, and it is not mine to, er, purchase."
thinking he doesnt realize im married and maybe thinks a single mom with my job wont want two kids?
yeah he was creepy. when i was pregnant with hailey my mom had a friend who would call wanting to know if i wanted to get rid of the baby yet.
i think hes like this because im havimg a boy.
in his.conversation he mentiomed how his friends basically adopted a sex of child they didn't have after habing two or three of the same sex.
it's not a puppy! It's a human child! What is WRONG with people?!
Surprisingly it is on the adoption application, when we met with an adoption agency for the first time they told us we could request anything from race, age, sex, sibling groups. They even told us we could go as far a hair and eye color (which I think is super crazy) but of course the more restrictions you place the longer you may be waiting.
Yeesh... Not touching that Normal thread with a 10 ft pole...
especially since had she handled stuff well there would be a flood of T&P's headed her way but I... I don't know. The whole.. No mention of previous loss until she didn't get the answers she was looking for... Ahhh I feel like a bad person but I can't even...
Honestly, I can't say I have too much of an issue with what the Mom did. I'm not a physically aggressive person. If I had been in her position, she probably would have gotten a nice big "go fuck yourself" but... you open your bratty mouth like that, you deserve a smack.
Oh, and the poor Mother was probably so over her kid's tantrum, she was just looking for an excuse to hit something LOL. I've been there!
@lizzybean hahahaha careful doll... We (rightfully) voted you the F15 sweetheart.. And now you are letting your true "smack a bitch" flag fly... Watch out girls love it.
And NOBODY better give me shit when I am in my Nordstrom (or NRack) happy place...

LOL!!! Excellent point! I promise I have never hit anyone in my life! (actually, I did give a good smack to this "friend" of mine in Grade 12 but he deserved it I swear )
I just sooo felt for this mom and every mom of a toddler has probably wanted to do just what she did to some judgey person!

I meant it more toward @psychobutthead mentioning "...my mom had a friend who would call wanting to know if I wanted to get rid of the baby yet." As far as adoption preferences, I would just be happy to have a healthy child. However, if it leads children to a loving home, I won't oppose the particulars of each process. To each his/her own, I guess. I just don't understand how people think it's okay to stalk pregnant women like a baby snatcher, hoping that they'll score a baby out of it. It's wrong on so many levels. If you want to expand your family, approach a legitimate adoption agency, not a pregnant woman (or new mother). So creepy to have an attitude like "that baby not working out? I'll take it off your hands." This is why I carry mace and a mean bitchy resting face. My kid will be strapped to me until it's a teenager (I'm exaggerating). So paranoid of the crazies out there trying to have a child by any means necessary. Yuck.
I know a couple who went through the adoption process twice and they found the pregnant woman by chance. They also approached her about giving the kids up.
It surprises me but it doesn't at the same time. People who want children badly for the most part would do anything to have one. They probably think it can't hurt to ask just in case they get a yes. I'm sure private adoption is easier and less expensive then going through a specific agency.
But yeah I think this guy figures I'd be the perfect canidate to ask. I look like him and his wife. They are both brown eyed and brunettes with glasses. But creepers need to really stepoff because I'm feeling paranoid now.
As far as the friend of my moms she probably kept calling because I was a single pregnant 16 year old about to have a baby. She probably figured I'd be dying to give the kid up.

I was just watching that video on CNN. Yes, mom shouldn't have physically touched her, but I'm scratching my head at smug hipster gal gladly giving an interview and smiling saying "Yeah, I told her to quiet her kid then I told her off- go to hell!"

Right?! By the looks of her, she really needed a little reality check on how to treat people. I mean, the Mom may not be the best kind of person just punching her like that, but how about a little empathy bratty hipster chick?!

Hey loves! I bumped the dog-nip thread because I found an awesome article on getting your dog ready for baby. I really think there are a ton of awesome tips if you aren't sure how to start this!
Ugh, just had the saddest phone call. My best friend in the entire world has been a little MIA lately and I kinda figured she was pregnant. I know they had been trying and I thought she just didn't want to share the news too early.
Anyway she just called to say she went to the doctor for her first appointment and it seems she's had a missed miscarriage. She's handling it really well but is obviously devastated.
I'm going to send her some flowers but I don't want to put anything corny on the note. What would you guys say? I was thinking of writing "We love you and we're here for you. Love KKLeigh and DH." Is that too simple?
I was going to say "I love you and I am here for you whenever you need me". I am so sorry for her loss
@kkleigh10 I am so sorry for your friend. My BFF miscarried when I was pregnant with my son, and I did basically the same thing. I also told her that I understood if she needed some time away from me and that when she is ready, I'm always here.
F15 December Siggy Challenge: Holiday Decoration Fails
Thanks to everyone who let me vent earlier today. He woke up in a much better mood after his nap. Now I just have to work on him understanding "I love you" & a hug is not an apology!!!!
DH has been riding his bike to and from work most days lately. I really hope he gets home soon because it is now pitch black out and I am starting to get worried.
Dang @lizzybean...I will try ordering the frap!! Tx for heads up
