I have another one...I think it's CRAZY that you have to have a permit to catch a fish...but any ole' Joe Blow can procreate! I'm sorry...but I have seen some shady characters come in and deliver babies and I often wonder how on earth these poor children will make it through the night at home alone with these idiots! Okay...now I'm done.

My dh thinks people should have to pass a test and prove financial stability to obtain reproductive rights. ?

I really, REALLY like your DH! LOL

I compare my baby to others and get an almost sick satisfaction that he is cuter than most.

I'm feeling very apathetic about nursing and think I would really like to stop but know that I would feel like the worst mother in the world if I did becaue I don't have a difficult time with it, it actually comes very easily for both of us.  I think I'm bitter because it largely prevents DH from having to take any real nighttime responsibility (except for the rare instances when he uses pumped milk).

Sometimes representing children in child abuse cases means that I am doing things most people would find morally repugnant. ?When I represent teenage rape victims I often have to fight to get them back into their homes because that is what they ask me to do. ?This is one of the hardest parts of my job.

(If a child is young, I use 'substituted judgement', but if a child is old enough to make a rational decision my job is to represent THEIR interests, and to build a relationship of trust and support to help them should their interests change.)?

My confession:

I think the pendulum has swung, as it does, and that BOTB is on a mean kick and I don't like how posters are frequently jumped on with no good reason.  I'm not trying to play the 'it used to be so much nicer' card, but the fact is that my opinion of why is slower and more boring is that people are too mean and too quick to jump down someone's throat.  It's one thing if someone deserves to be flamed for stupidity or rudeness, but I'm seeing more and more that that stupidity and rudeness are assumed rather than being initially present.

I don't care for it, personally.

Also - not everybody charts and not everybody needs to chart or wants to chart, and I get tired of people demanding to see charts before answering questions which may be answered without charts.

 

Well said.

MsBeaglesly

I want to post more on here - lurked for months but know the second I have a question you will want to see my chart and I don't want nor feel the need to chart.  I do ovulate and I am sure of it so feel no need.

Thanks for saying this.  And thanks for saying it's okay not to chart.

I've had a craptastic week and am about to pour myself a glass of wine. ?I don't care that it's only 4:30, and I'm actually surprised I made it this long.

One of my best friends is not remotely ready to start TTC (financially strapped, marital issues, etc)., and I secretly hope they won't start TTC this fall as planned, in part because it would be a horrible decision for both of them but in part because I'd be incredibly jealous if they got pregnant before us.

I assuage my guilt over this by recognizing that she'd be equally jealous if we got pregnant before them because she's about 10 years older than me.

I'm scared of moths, dragonflies, and butterflies!

I am secretly relieved that I have been put on pelvic rest for the remainder of my pregnancy, so I have an excuse not to have sex with DH.

Even though I enjoy it and I was put on rest because I started bleeding during sex, I don't want it as much as DH and now have a justified reason not to.

I am still jealous that a friend of mine had a girl and is using the name I picked out for a girl as a nickname for her baby.?

When I'm at the gym, I like to pretend that I am much more fit than I am.  It makes me work out harder.  I also fart while running.  I hope it's not loud :-)

I like porn too!  

ditto but my confession is that i dont like DH to watch it. lol

This. i hate when he watches it but i really enjoy it sometimes.

I want to move but when I think about moving I feel bad for people who don't live where I live and then I stay. I don't particularly care for my state but I don't think I could leave it again. I lived on the West Coast for a while and it's joke compared to the pride I have for my state.

greenclown

I hate it when people quote posts and just type "this." ?I swore I would never do it, but found myself almost doing it. ?I gave in the other day, and I have since realized it's the most efficient way of agreeing. ?

Here's another one: I need a BFPB but have been too scared to post for one....I know, oh so very lame

Tim'sWifey:

I am perfectly content right now.  I'm still in my pj's, eating lunch, nesting and have absolutely zero ambition to shower.  Hahaha...

I hate that my sister and BIL are disappointed because they just found out they are having a boy. I have been ready for a baby for 1 1/2 years, DH still isnt ready. So it just makes me upset that they arent excited for the kid they are having when I would be thrilled to be having a baby, any baby at all.?

?And also, because DH isnt ready for a baby, Im on bcp. Every night when I take the pill I get a little pissed at DH. I yell at him in my head. Every night.

Since the GBCBOTB of 2008, I've tried to jump back in a few times, but I don't feel like I fit in any more. I'm still trying, but I doubt I'll ever be a regular again.

tarapaige1

This will probably be the only post I ever post on any of these boards.  I've been lurking for awhile, and have noticed how rude people can get toward "newbies."  Since I don't have time to be on the boards 24/7 I feel like I would only receive rude responses to anything I posted.

Emie28

There is one (maybe two) particular regular(s) that I think act(s) overly snarky/b!tchy to posts from newbs just b/c they are newbs. And it annoys me.

Oh, and I've never actually watched a porn and wonder if I'm missing something.

Ok, this one is really bad but i have to get it off my chest...

When i got my BFP i cried for scremed at my husband because i realized I very well may have just screwed up my life. I realized that I would be due right before finals and that i might have to take a year off school and all i could think was how much better it would be if it had never happened. And then I lost the baby. And now i feel like total *** because i feel liek i wished away my baby. Now that she/he is gone I realize anything i had to do would have been worth having him/her, and all I want is another chance. I can't even get out of bed, not because of the cramps, but because i feel like a peice of my soul has been ripped out. All i want is another chance. I will never regret a BFP ever again.
