Maternity Leave Guilty Pleasures

cvoss0918

Now that most of us are beginning our leaves from work or recovering home with our babies, what's your guilty pleasure while having some down time? I started my maternity leave today and I cannot stop watching 90 day fiancé. I'm a sucker for horrible reality tv.

Other than thebump? Long hot baths, random trips to the cupcake shop, and anything on the real estate channel.

Vanderpump rules, though I feel most guilty because the baby has to overhear it.

I've also watched 90 day fiancé (especially when there is nothing else on in the middle of the night) and breaking bad on Netflix

Does mom guilt count? DD1 didn't have a 1st bday party. So, I am spending a lot of time planning and experimenting to make it the best Doc McStuffins party ever.

HGTV 24/7  DH is home this week and he asked me if the TV has a sensor that automatically changes the channel to HGTV when he leaves the room.  

I also am really excited that Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is going to be starting up because then I can watch that during the day.

Me too!  My mom got me started on it when she was here right after delivery.  Today was DH's first day back to work and I watched 4 episodes.   young Jared Padelecki!

It's technically been one day, but including the weekend, I have watched 6 hallmark Christmas movies. Not guilty at all - gotta get through the cleaning somehow.

I've been saving the best series' for BFing,so in the few weeks I've been home waiting for my EDD I've been overdosing on How I Met Your Mother,which I usually can't STAND. Thing is,the channel shows episodes in a totally random order and seems to be working backwards so I'm totally confused!

That and dunking bread in olive oil and balsamic vinegar,and anything that looks like a Malteser...

I feel guilty about none of it!

Maybe I should feel a little guilt about how hardcore I've been hitting the leftover Halloween candy but I'm insisting it's breast feeding fuel.

This. So much this.

I haven't started yet but with DS, Friends played on Nick @ Nite and during my 12 weeks I got through the entire series twice (they did four episodes a night).  Not sure what show I'll be binge watching with this LO yet.

Food network channel and sleeping. I could sleep forever I feel. I guess I'm making up for not sleeping at night lol

I haven't turned on the TV once, but I sure do love sleeping until 10:00 ... or after. I'm not sure how the hell working will become an option - I feel accomplished if I've taken a shower and changed into clean PJs by 2:00!

@minibean16‌ Good call w/ the Hallmark Christmas movies!

SS- I'm finding that downtime usually lasts all of 5 minutes, esp w/ DH being back to work. Just when one of our girls is fed, changed, & settled... it's time for round 2 w/ her sister. I have managed to sneak in some baking, online Christmas shopping, & wine drinking though
