Trying to Get Pregnant

TFAS: Is this strange?

Or am I just strange for this boggling my mind?

A poster got a BFP on 12-24. Her child is 18.5 months old. Probably born the same week Jack was. She got a BFP today. She just made a ticker that says "Two under two!!!". 

I call math fail and/or obsession with 2u2? 

She just says it is semantics, 3 months over 2 is still 2u2? 

 

Humor me, I am dying of boredom. 

Re: TFAS: Is this strange?

  • That is not two under two. Its not semantics, its common math skills.

    I've got to say that I do not see the rage with the whole 2u2 ?around here. ?I see that ticker statement all the time on the nursery board. ?Personally, the idea of it scares me out of my wits, so I do not understand wearing the badge of honor...?

  • Some people view 2u2 as 2 in diapers.  To me, your first child is under 2 when you're 2nd is born... That's what the 2u2 bump board uses as well...

  • Technically, 2 under 2 fail.

    However, I am guessing that 2 and 3 months and 2 under 2 is still a LO and another  new born baby which is close enough to me to be a little scary.

     But, who am I to say I am a  none under none.

    Yea I don't get the rage either. The fact that the math is so obviously wrong makes me think the obsession around these parts is too strong.

    I think for me, it's more trying to convince myself I can handle it if it happens... That's why I have it in my siggy, lol!

  • Hmmm, I would think they would both have to be under 2? WTF do I know? I can't even get one! Brahahahahaha

  • I say obsession. Three months over 2 is not two under 2. She just wants extra attention for having 2 under 2.

  • That is NOT two under two, in my opinion.  I believe it is only 2u2 if the oldest turns 2 after the 2nd one is born.  I guess I can see her logic though, he is technically 2 until his 3rd birthday! Stick out tongue

  • To me it seems she's getting at conceiving a second one before her first is 2?
  • fxz109fxz109 member

    ITA.  2u2 means 2nd one born before the 1st's 2nd birthday. 

    2 in diapers is 2 in diapers. 

    I don't get the obsession with it.   Like it's a status symbol?
