  Dog (however cute) does not equal baby. I hate stupid people.

  WTF? I am speechless...so apparently a baby can be readily replaced by something on four legs....you made the right move, unfriending her.

  I mean, right? Who ARE these people, and how did I like them at some point in my life?

  Agh.

  Clearly, a FB cleaning is needed.

  ETA: I should add, this time it was a guy. So, "douchebag" might be the most appropriate nickname.

  I would love to send your IRL friend the nastiest FB message EVER along with an amazing PIP of a throat punch, unless it is a girl then I would send along with the throat punch a _cunt punt.

  What?? Why would someone even say that?  A puppy, or any pet for that matter, is in no way even remotely close to having a baby.  Getting a puppy might help take the sting away for a split second, and it may be nice to have a soft cuddly friend to snuggle when you feel like crying or screaming at the world, but it's not a replacement for a child.  Ugh!!

  What the hell is wrong with people?!? Is it just me or are people getting stupider and ruder by the second! And people wonder why I spend so much time at home!

  Babywearing, cloth diapering, formula and breastmilk feeding, still can't believe I'm a mom, momma to my little man, two furbabies, and two angel babies.
