Re: FFFC

    Mine is that I don't really miss breastfeeding.  It was a hard decision to wean, and I thought that it was going to be really hard emotionally when we were done.  But, we had struggled with it from day one and I really do think that both DS and I are happier now that we're done. 

     

    That being said, I still recognize the benefits and am glad that we stuck with it for as long as we did.  I would still do it again if/when we have another baby.

    I still sleep in my maternity tanks because they're more comfy then regular ones, and I don't mind if they get stretched out.

    I'm a baby food hoarder. I just counted and I have 51 containers of baby food and I plan on buying 12 more jars tonight (they're on sale and I have coupons). I keep justifying it by saying that she's not going to stop eating anytime soon, but it's really because I can't stop buying it. I think I need to take a break after this next shopping trip.

    Switching to formula was the best decision I've ever made for my family. I agonized for weeks over the decision, but now I do not regret it one bit. I am happy that DD got what she did for as long as she did and I think that I will EP if we have another LO.

    I hate that so much stigma is attached for FF and that people feel like they have to justify it all the time - especially on TB. I say do what's best for you, not some random strangers.

    I second SweetHurricane's view on FF. I went through hell for a month before finally switching over and it was so relieving once we did. So much guilt that goes into it, I hate it!

    So, my FFFC, I hate that LO has reflux, but now I extra hate it because I can't let him cry because he swallows a bunch of air and makes himself puke (after less than 1 minute of crying)... and I sorta want to just set him down and let him CIO sometimes. 

    Also, I'm terrible about making sure he eats his solids for breakfast.... Embarrassed

    I hate having a birthday so close to DH's (mine the 23rd, his the 29th).  We turn 40 this year and our mothers are insistent on giving us a party.  Due to DH's work schedule and the fact that he planned a golf tournament in honor of his nephew on the 30th they are doing the party on the 31st.  That is 8 days after my birthday - I tried to say I didn't want to but they keep insisting. 

    I just want my own birthday somewhere near my real birthday.  

    At least last year's was super nice - I was in Japan on business - they always give us small gifts when we come visit but since they found out it was my b-day they gave me a Mikimoto pearl Keyring and picked a place to eat that they new I would really enjoy.  I did not have to share my birthday with anyone.

    MIL offered to buy E and I a plane ticket home for a week at the end of summer so we can see everybody.  I told her and DH it was to stressful flying with E (total lie, I already flew with her and it was much simpler than I thought it would be) and I would have to decline. The real reason I declined...we would have to stay with MIL while we're there (even though my mother lives 20 minuets away from her) and not only do I not want to stay in her filthy home but I don't want to be around her anymore than I have to.  I'm also worried about E being around her when she's a little older because MIL uses stupid words for everything and I don't want my kid growing up thinking oatmeal is called opy-dope or pacifiers are called dummydummys. I also don't want her calling MIL "GrrGrr" like our niece because I think it sounds stupid.

    Thats ok, I got Jays two weeks ago. I had to get it and take it to the SS office because I still havnt recieved his card. (Which they sent to the wrong address, so who knows who has it now.)

    I took Jay to the park for a walk and there was a 10-13 year old in the baby/infant swing. I had thought about putting Jay in it but couldn't because of her. It was irritation! She should have been in a swing her own size!

    I took a sick day today because I stop working soon and if I don't use it I lose it.  I still had the Nanny come, though, because I wanted to sleep in and get a few things done around the house.  I would have had to pay her anyway, might as well use her, right? :)
