We went on a road trip over Thanksgiving and were driving along a highway that was DESERTED.  It was late afternoon and still light outside and I needed to pee so badly it hurt!  After driving for 20 minutes without finding a gas station, store, or any civilization besides randome dirt roads and houses I decided to go on the side of the road.  We drove to a side road and found a random dirt road that seemed secluded enough and stopped so I could do my business.  I squatted between the passenger side door (where my husband was sitting) and opended the back door for a little more privacy from the open road.  I was about a foot from my husband and peeing.  Well...apparently my bowels decided to let go more than pee because I could NOT control the enormous poo that escaped my ass.  I was literally taken off guard and ended up unloading the biggest dump ever and I was literally a FOOT away from my husband.  Um.  ::dies::  THANK GOD for baby wipes.

To make matters WORSE.  Yes it gets worse.  Once I decided to just live with it and got back in the car, we drove off and noticed the mailbox....I had just pooed in some random person's driveway.

TRU annoys the *** out of me.  The whole "Free XYZ with purchase" but then you can't find XYZ, and when you think you have, it still rings up full price.  And the whole "FREE SHIPPING" but then when you put it in your e-cart, its not!  GRRR.

I want another LO, but don't want to lose my body again...  And I feel like I would take a professional hit at work.  I'm struggling between my goals for my family and work, and feel selfish for it.

Well, I'm already down this road but I can sympathize.  I am due in just over a month and there is a lot of work coming down the line for my team (I manage a department). I am already thinking though how short of a maternity leave I can take, how can I get moved up on the daycare waiting list, etc. Because I know that when I am out, a power struggle will ensue to take 'control' of some of my areas, I'll get frantic emails and calls from my employees to 'help them!' and I will come back to a mess to clean up - just like what happened on my last mat leave.

Maybe I should just decide not to return to work and become a SAHM.

This is related to something which happened between 1st try and TTCAL.  I have major issues with the TTCAL ladies who go onto other boards C/P stuff and then bash the person.  I get that having a miscarriage and struggling with infertility is an exetremely painful thing but that is why you have separate boards for this type of stuff.  Sometimes people need to grow up and take a bit of perspective before flipping out.  My irritation extends to people who are having fertility issues and then get offended when you invite them to a baby shower or a 1st birthday.  It kind of puts you in a situation where if you don't invite them you are a jerk and if you do you are still a jerk because you knowing left them out.  Can't people be grown-up enough both on the internet and in real life to take themselves out of situations which will be difficult for them?

I'm nodding at all of this.

preg_amy

Okay, I have a couple. 

I'm really sad about my boobs.  I know it's superficial and horrible of me to feel this way.  Ever since I stopped breastfeeding, it's like I have two empty skin bags on my chest.  When I put a regular bra on, I feel like I'm just stuffing loose skin into the cups.  That sounds really disgusting.

But, despite that, my sex drive has come back after I quit breastfeeding.  I thought it was gone for good.  We've had sex the past two nights and I already know I'm going to initiate it tonight as well.  That's huge for us considering that DH has calculated our average amount of sex we've had lately (we've only used condoms, and he's remembered how many he's bought) and our average is once every 14.43 days since DS was born.  I already think it's making a difference in our relationship, as things have been strained lately.

I'm a terrible housekeeper.  I'm a SAHM, but my house is messy a lot.  I really think that part of it is that we live in a really small apartment, but we have a lot of stuff.  There just isn't space to store anything.  So our house always looks cluttered and it's hard to clean.  So I don't try very hard. 

I don't have anything juicy today.

MrsRandom - you just got me in trouble. I was "grading papers" and my students are watching a video and I totally LOL.

I am still wearing maternity pants. I never lost all the weight after DD was born and I refuse to buy plus-size pants. So the only thing that fits are my wide elastic waist fugly pants. I hate that I can't drop this weight.

I don't see why both kids and career can't *both* be important. 

I'm not in the same boat, because I'm trying to start a career while staying at home.  So, different issues.  But it's still a juggling act.  Being a good SAHM is super-important to me, but I'd be sad if my writing never got a chance to blossom.

Oh please, having someone worry about their job because they have to go on mat leave is hardly worth getting your panties in a wad over. It's hard. You have a ton to do and a lot to manage and for those of us who manage large and complicated projects and other employees, it's a struggle. She hardly stated that she was wishing she could just birth in the office and hand it over to an employee to watch. Sad? Please.

  I think you can have both a career and children without issue.  Sometimes when a woman leaves for maternity leave chaos ensues and the natives go all crazy without guidance.  THis in no way means that her career is more important than her kids.  Insert BIG eyeroll here.

Ciconrad:

My SIL (DH's sister) works full time and does 90% of the childcare responsibilities for their 2 yo.  Her fiance is "working on his PhD", which is why my SIL has to take a 2 yo to work with her from 10-4 everyday. They can't afford daycare on her salary alone but fiance has to "concentrate on his research" all day and their daughter doesn't allow him to do that.  Luckily she works for the family business and my niece is an angel.  She has crib there in an unused office and she naps in the office from 1-4. 

Her fiance's is obsessed with video games.  Plays them all night long while SIL does all the child and house responsibilities. They had to get a bigger apartment with 3 bedrooms recently because SIL couldn't take all his video game equipment in their living room and their kid was tripping over everything.  So yea, extra rent for a video game room.   So we get their christmas lists yesterday and the fiance has on his "Target gift cards - all their video game stuff is on sale right after Christmas".  Seriously?  You are 32 and that's your entire list.  YOU ARE LAME. 

The situation annoys me and it shouldn't, it's not my life.  I just want to ask them if they don't see the ridiculousness in my SIL taking her kid to work while he "researches" (I suspect some serious gaming) and then he spends all night playing video games.  Maybe you could do some research at night so the kid doesn't have to sit in an office all day???  I also think my SIL needs to get a backbone.  Ughhh...

 

Um, this is absurd.  And should p!ss you off!  DH and I *both* have PhDs, and both did stressful/intensive research to get there.  But um, it is actually one of the more flexible arrangements *if* you are disciplined about your work.  I finished my PhD while pregnant and with a newborn.  So this should not be happening.  He should step up.  It gives the rest of us academics a bad name for being lazy/selfish/etc.  Sorry, just hit close to home.

I agree. I'm working on my thesis right now, and will be pursuing a PhD immediately afterward. Its kind of offensive when you put "PhD" in quotes like its no big deal. Seriously? Do you know what it entails? It requires a lot of research and a lot of time. I'm not saying your friend's H isn't probably screwing around on video games more than he should be, but sometimes we grad students need an outlet that has nothing to do with our field of work.

I am sorry if you took my "working on his PhD" statement that way.  In NO way was I trying to saying that working on a PhD is not work.  I think it must be a crap load of work.  It's directed at him because anytime he doesn't want to deal with something with his daughter he says "I've got to work on my PhD stuff" (so I was quoting him - although that wasn't clear). I agree everyone needs outlets but it's also absurd for him to get 6-8 hours od dedicated time everyday to do his research and then his relaxation time all evening and night.   He goes to bed at like 1 am because he's up playing and my MIL comes over when SIL leaves to work to watch my niece until he gets up at 9.  He has an hour everyday where he gets her dressed and gives her breakfast and then drops her off to my SIL's office. SIL brings her home at 4..he researches while she cooks dinner..and after they eat dinner he's in front of the games.  So he seems to have lots of free time. 

I know it's time consuming work to work on a PhD and I could understand taking a break during the day or having an hour in the evening to himself, but c'mon...you can't get to bed by 11 so my MIL doesn't have to come to your house in the morning?  I just feel he uses the PhD as a big reason not to have to pull his weight.

Are you kidding me?  What is wrong with you?  I am rarely at a loss for words, but this really has me mouth agape and stunned.  Women with demanding jobs have children all the time.  And why do they "bother"  hmmm - maybe because just like a SAHM or any other mom, they love their children and want to have both.  Maybe they have very supportive husbands and families that help make it work.  I offered to take only 4 weeks of maternity leave to be considered for a promotion that would have required travel every other week for at least 6 months starting immediately after the birth of my 3rd.  I didn't get it due to the timing, but I offered, because it would have been great for my career.   Should I not have bothered having kids either?

DH finally has a good job (after a LOONNG stretch of jerking off) and right now I'm out on maternity leave -- I will be going back after the 6 wks b/c financially I can't stay out.

But, I just am tired of playing "which bill do we pay first, on time etc..."

 its exhausting. and stressful.

I'm sorry. We are in the same boat. My hours were cut (but are finally being reinstated next week, yay!) and DH got demoted with a pay cut. It is really tough knowing that I have to make late payments and barely afford gas and groceries.

And some of us would. Doesn't mean one thing is more or less important.  I had a year of mat leave. I went back at 5 months. I'll have another year if we have another and I'll be back at 6 weeks.

I have another.  Yesterday morning, I had to run to the store to pick up something I needed for a recipe.  I also bought a container of cinnamon buns at the bakery because they looked good.  Well, I get home, I'm distracted, trying to put dinner in the crockpot, Madeleine is fussy, the house is a wreck, etc.  Completely forgot about the cinnamon buns. 

10pm last night I remember them and I must have one.  They are nowhere to be found.  I checked the car, the yard, the cupboards, even the freezer, just in case.  Nowhere.  Did I forget them at the store?  Did I drop them in the parking lot?  I don't know, but I hate feeling this scattered.  And I really want those cinnamon buns.

Hope everything is ok. Natalie has just started to pull up to standing. God only knows when she'll start to cruise, let alone walk.

I spoke with the pedi and she was awesome and calmed me down and didn't even make me feel like I was being a PITA for calling. I love her.

10pm last night I remember them and I must have one.  They are nowhere to be found.  I checked the car, the yard, the cupboards, even the freezer, just in case.  Nowhere.  Did I forget them at the store?  Did I drop them in the parking lot?  I don't know, but I hate feeling this scattered.  And I really want those cinnamon buns.

Someplace, my missing bag of Babybels is hanging out with your danish.

 

I'm glad I'm not the only one.  I felt so stupid.

We went on a road trip over Thanksgiving and were driving along a highway that was DESERTED.  It was late afternoon and still light outside and I needed to pee so badly it hurt!  After driving for 20 minutes without finding a gas station, store, or any civilization besides randome dirt roads and houses I decided to go on the side of the road.  We drove to a side road and found a random dirt road that seemed secluded enough and stopped so I could do my business.  I squatted between the passenger side door (where my husband was sitting) and opended the back door for a little more privacy from the open road.  I was about a foot from my husband and peeing.  Well...apparently my bowels decided to let go more than pee because I could NOT control the enormous poo that escaped my ass.  I was literally taken off guard and ended up unloading the biggest dump ever and I was literally a FOOT away from my husband.  Um.  ::dies::  THANK GOD for baby wipes.

To make matters WORSE.  Yes it gets worse.  Once I decided to just live with it and got back in the car, we drove off and noticed the mailbox....I had just pooed in some random person's driveway.

OMG I am dying!!! That is the funniest thing I have read in a long time!

I have no problem with stopping for a pee in the country, but I had no idea your story would take such a turn. LMAO!

This is an awesome confession!!

My confession: I was suprised at how many parents don't re-home a pet if the child has a moderate-severe allergic reaction. To me, it is a no brainer. But I guess not every parent feels that way.
