I think the difference between you and I is that you go out of your way over and over to mention specific amounts you spend on things. That might be why you've been called out for it over and over (and not just by me, thank you very much). I mentioned that I spent money on clothes and felt guilty about it, but I didn't mention an exact amount or how many items I actually bought. Just that I spent more than I meant to (PS, it was significantly less than the amount you said in the post we're talking about, if that matters) and I felt bad about it, but it felt nice to have things that fit. If you honestly think that's me bragging, so be it. Okay. I doubt anyone else took it that way.
I'm going to quote myself from that FFFC thread, the one and only comment I made regarding your clothing purchase. You can reread it and see if you really think I was "set off" about your comment. I think I was actually pretty nice and reasonable. I'm sure you'll ignore this just like you ignored it the first time I posted it, but I'm putting it out there anyway. Maybe you should actually go back and reread the conversations before you start calling names, because other people were a lot harsher toward you than I was. Just a thought.
$420 is a lot of money. Many women on here are worried about their medical bills, preparing for baby, etc. So please tell us all about your great deals you got on maternity clothes! Sorry, that's not a good deal around here!
Really wasn't flaunting... It was my confession and like an "ugh just spent too much money" Buying a few $50 dresses really isn't flaunt worthy. If they were $500 then it would be lol And even though I spent a lot, I got a lot so it's a good deal to me. It's not so weird to talk maternity clothes on a baby forum. Sorry if I offended you. But, I think that's a bit of a stretch.

I can't speak for everyone so I may be wrong but I think it may just come from your post history- I have noticed you tend to talk a lot about how much money you spend on various things, in very specific detail. I think it just rubs people the wrong way because it seems a little braggy. I don't mean this to offend or upset you, just to inform where comments like this might come from, because whenever you talk about money and get called out like this, you seem confused.
Yes, @PedsIsHardcore, it is hard to keep straight and/or believe you have all these ailments you have shared with us... and you really don't need to bring up that you are a nurse every time..it sounds condescending and fake which is where the skepticism is coming from.
Don't forget how she has the time to paint babies' nails every Friday.
It also rubs me the wrong way how ungrateful she is to her mom who is taking care of her granddaughter. She doesnt have to do that.
It's not Friday anymore, but I'm confessing anyway. I really want to find out the sex of the twins because as horrible as it sounds, if it turns out we are having twin girls I will need some time to mentally get excited about it. I've always seen myself having boys, and while I thought my youngest would be a girl I got to a point where I could be excited about it. Now I feel overwhelmed with the idea that we could be adding two girls to the family and I worry about them being just like me (I was a terror lol).

Girrrrl, just tell me where you dropped those coins at because mama needs some new clothes. Please and thank you!
@FunnyGal18: Motherhood Maternity! We have one in our mall. I desperately needed jeans and they were buy one get one half off! They're sooooo comfortable!

Do they have any new sales? I really want a shirt they have there
@camusoh2011 I don't think that's flame worthy! We all have preconceived ideas of what having a boy or a girl will entail, and I don't think it's wrong to want some time to adjust. And hopefully, boy(s) or girl(s), they won't be the terrors that you were, haha!

Hmm, I'm not sure, this was the first time I've gone there this pregnancy. I don't think the shirts I bought were on sale, though.
I work with a blind diabetic dog and I laugh at him when he bumps into things. It's not to be cruel, I'm just so used to him being fine that now it's always funny. I'm horrible.
