I haven't seen Frozen, have no desire to see it, and most likely won't

I bought more things for myself Black Friday shopping than anyone else.

I am ok with going into foreclosure and/or claiming bankruptcy so I can quit my job to stay home with LO.

When nursing around family, i always fake nurse so I can get extra cuddles and not have to share her.

Out of curiosity, where would you live with LO if your home was foreclosed on?

People live in their houses a looonng time before actually getting evicted

I can't wait to sleep train (when lo is old enough of course). While it's hard at the time, the results are so worth it. This whole hour to fall asleep business is getting old.

I do that. LO always falls asleep at the boob so I just put my cover over us, and no one is the wiser.

I get insanely possessive of DS around my MIL. I got really upset yesterday when DH gave the baby to her and let her feed him the rest of his bottle. I have no real reason to not want to let her feed him...she really loves him and is so excited to be a Grammie. Maybe it's the fact that she bought diapers, bottles, baby bath stuff, clothes, and a baby monitor (and possibly more that she's hidden from us) for her apartment, even though he's 10 weeks old and has never been there. I know I need to get over these feelings before they hurt my relationship with MIL, but I'm having a hard time letting it go.

I was like this with my SIL with my first Lo and can't explain why to this day and her and I are close so I really had no reason being that way

@MelW629  I'm not saying the feelings you are having aren't crazy, but I totally get it.  There's just something about that feeling you get when someone else thinks they are going to insert themselves in the baby's life.  My grandparents seem to think that we should leave our LO with them for a weekend.  They are in their 70's, both need to use medical equipment for better living and refuse to, and neither of them can even pass the baby to the other one without a third party involved.  They bought baby stuff to keep at their little apartment/condo thing "just in case."  Uhh no... no on so many levels.

@MelW629‌ I think you just have new mom syndrome. I had it with certain people. There was ever a good reason for it but even some people that I was comfortable with I did not want them to hold or feed my baby. And it doesn't even have anything to do with being FTM, I'm the same way as STM, maybe even worse.

This is my ILs. They keep pushing for me to leave LO with them all the time. They were mad because I wouldn't leave her to go Black Friday shopping. The more the push me to leave her the less km actually going to. My BIL says that when I have a second child I'll be dropping them off to anyone that will take them. Um no. Chill out. She's my kid and I say who watches her and when.

It really doesn't irk me when others hold Madelein but my husband hovers and gets nervous about it. I'm a lot more laid back than he is though.

My DH hovered a lot too with DS. With DD now we're both more relaxed.

I have never had a toasted poptart and I may try one in the morning.

@SEK1114‌ you're an idiot

I don't need a house or money to raise my kids guise you don't know me @CarmAlarm‌ @zoeyy‌

I wish FIL would just leave already. He's been talking about divorcing his wife and moving to Las Vegas for years now. Why can't he just do it already? He's the cause of so many problems in this family. Most everything in this family would resolve itself if the nucleus of the problem and all of the negative energy would just leave. He tried to get MIL fired up tonight to start shit with me. News flash, ain't happening buddy, and I don't give a shit about what you think of me. I have my reasons for thinking the way that I do about you, and they aren't about to change.

@MelW629‌ , I totally get it. When I see my MIL's car in our driveway, I am SOOOOO tempted to just keep driving past my house until she leaves. When I get home anytime she is watching LO (she has stayed with LO 2x while I've been at work and DH was out of town for the day with FIL), she makes me feel awful when I get home...she randomly started doing our laundry last time...nice thought, but I feel so creeped out that she saw and touched my underwear! It's been getting a bit better lately, I just have to keep thinking "she is just excited....be. Nice." I feel like I have to sit on my hands when she is holding LO in front of me. Good luck!

@CarmAlarm‌ @zoeyy‌ @conradraging‌ super awesome input, guys. I was basically expressing how upset I feel about returning to work and leaving LO with a sitter. Maybe I should have clarified I wouldn't actually do it. Major eye roll.

ashaw512

Oh boy, 3..2..1..

@SEK1114‌ clarity is always best. When in doubt act like your talking to a child, be exact with your words. We only read what you write.

Lololol Did you *mean* major eye roll ? Or did you mean just a regular eye roll and just said major to basically express how mad you are you got called out ?

You're going to have to wait on the eye roll because I'm not done rolling my eyes at you. You didn't "express being upset", you said you would go bankrupt or get foreclosed on to stay home. Those are not the same. This is fffc meaning you confess things that are true.

I also think if you did mean it, it is helpful of us to point out that you would need money and a house to properly raise a baby, so maybe rethink that whole idea.

Major eye roll right back at ya, sunshine.

Edited for spelling.
