Re: FFFC!
**Kelly***
Part of DH's job entails having a pager for a week every 10 weeks or so. Basically, they give him a phone for people to call him after hours for tech support. It's supposed to be for really bad issues or for really high-up people to use, but these dumb@sses keep calling him at all hours for stupid sh!t, like not being able to access facebook at work or needing a password reset (that's dumb because the system automatically allows for this every 15 minutes). Well, DH has had the pager this week and it sucks because we haven't spent much time together and I'm actually off this weekend. So I used sex to convince him to stay home with me and boys today.
Oh, and I'm ecstatic that the staff pharmacist where I work is retiring as of the end of Saturday. He's so freaking lazy and next to useless and I'm so excited to work with someone who'll actually work for a paycheck instead of eating a sandwich the second I come in to work. But I shouldn't feel this good because the poor man is so sweet as a person and he was basically forced out of his job, even though he had a medical reason for not getting immunization certified.
Lol. I think it's totally normal to think that. When we first came home from the hospital, I remember comparing my baby to every other baby I saw (in real life, on package labels, etc.) and thinking "Why do they even bother? Mine is obviously the cutest baby there ever was!" I think hormones play a big role, and I'm sure every single mother on here felt the same way at one point or another. About 5 weeks pp I finally started seeing other babies as cute, too. And by the way, your daughter is adorable.
My FFFC is that I'm trying to increase my milk supply by pumping, so I wanted to pump this morning at 5 and at 9 after DS woke up and fed. But sleeping instead felt sooo goood. (I know he's getting enough, but I'm trying to increase my freezer stash.)
I totally feel you on this!
My FFFC is that I bawled my eyes out today at my breastfeeding group. Bawled.
We've had a completely sh!tty week, thrush is back, nursing strike (I've posted about it already) but I had a complete breakdown today about it. All the other moms made me feel better, that they went through similar things, tips, etc but I just couldn't stop crying. In fact, as I type I'm crying. I'm a big baby.
I also have three loads of laundry all clean, waiting to be folded and put away but this week has been crap so I haven't done a thing around the house. It is a mess.
Another (I am just full of them today, and since DS is sleeping) - I never wear a bra at home. With having to nurse so often, and with having thrush Again, I just don't. I don't care if they sag, this is a lot easier.

Me neither. I believe all babies look like Winston Churchill. Mine included.
Your baby is truly cute
My FFFC is I start to cry when I watch the new Pampers commercial.
These are like.. funny FFFC's. Honestly I'm cracking up.
I'm going to the doctor on the 4th so my DH and I can start TTC. I cannot wait to get pregnant again.
if someone were to inspect our LO's room with a black light they would find more traces of bodily fluids then I would like to admit. Between BM, spit-up, and having to change a little boys diaper I think you get my drift...
I have done this too
When they show the lil' baby w the special needs, I just lose it. Then I go and hug and kiss my kids all over.
My DH doesn't have much experience with babies, so before DS was born, he used to say that he wouldn't be able to pick him out of the nursery (he imagined he'd be in the old fashioned through the window kind). Anyway, I told him that was ridiculous and that all babies do NOT look the same, in fact, I was getting angry that he would say that!
Now I'm eating my words, but the confession part is that I will NOT admit it. Not that I think all babies look alike now, but I swear especially on here there have been some posters with pics in their siggys that I have had to double take because they look JUST like my kid. Even girls. Also my brother has twin girls and one looks like my son, and I have mixed up some pictures already. I hate it when he is right about ridiculous things.
Me too! I always think, "What if the garbage man sees those in there?! He's gonna think we're humping like bunny-rabbits!!"
She is a cutie! I feel the same way about Violet.
My FFC is that I almost wanted V to sleep all day after having her 2 month shots today. The ILs are coming in town, and I think they've gotten the idea that she's a bit difficult. She isn't at all, but she always gets over-stimulated and therefore stays up too late and gets exhausted and fussy when we visit them or they come here. I just wanted her to sleep so I could leave her in her bassinet with an excuse. But she hasn't been any sleepier than usual since getting her shots.

No flames, but girrrlll, you're loco!
I can't wait until July next year when we start trying again. 
Good Luck, you better stay around when you go to your next BMB.
I know that's why I posted it here. Everyone keeps telling us we're nutso, but it took us a year to get out sticky baby last time, so I want a head start. Plus if we get luck and get KU next month my LO's would be a year apart and I'm okay with that!
And I'll be around here forever. This board is awesome
I feel like a loser because I have virtually no friends. Everyone that I did consider a friend now is too busy with their social life for me. Ever since I became a mom, I have been non-exsistant to them. I love my family, and they make me happy, so I give my time completely to them.
Oh, and you ladies seem to be the only people I can relate to.
I handled poop way more when using disposables with kids I babysat than I ever do with cloth. And I'm actually thankful to be using cloth during the heat wave since it's breathable and chemical-free! Having said that, I'd have a hard time sticking to it if DH didn't want to use cloth as much as I did.
BFP #1 9/7/10, EDD 5/14/11, Violet born 5/27/11.
BFP #2 4/9/12, EDD 12/16/12, M/C Rory 4/24/12.
BFP #3 10/6/12, EDD 6/16/12., Matilda born 6/17/13.
Me too Carissa, but for different reasons. My friends live in Georgia; the only friends I knew were DH's military buddies and they are all deployed or in Japan or something. The only friends I made were at work, but I'll see them maybe twice a month.
None of my friends in Georgia have children either, so I'm very glad that I have you ladies on here to share stories and vent with.
My FFFC - DS will fuss and fuss if I put him in his crib/swing/bouncer/bassinet for a nap that I let him sleep in my arms. I'm glad he gets a nap, but I feel like a bum for sitting around and watching TV all day. I do enjoy laundry and cleaning (I'm insane, I know); I feel guilty when it doesn't get done, yet I've sat through an entire marathon of America's Next Top Model on Bravo.
I watched a season on cwtv.com in two or three days. Sometimes I just don't feel up to being productive. I could probably get a lot more done if I started babywearing more often...I'm just hoping DH doesn't figure this out and up his expectations!

I dislike all of those as well. And DH absolutely loathes them. People will get very outraged about turning your nose up at any gift clothing, no matter how unattractive, but anything with words stays at the bottom of the pile.
I just said to my mother this morning , " I hope people dont look at my garbage and think that its a bunch of condoms in there!! " LOL
1. Your baby is adorable! But I still think mine is cuter!!
2. Even though we have been a little tight on cash, I just spent 90 dollars on cricut cartridges on a discount site. Scrapbooking anyone?
3. I'm a SAHM, so I don't need to pump as much, but I have been anyway to save up for my friend's stagette party and wedding where I plan to get trashed.
4. For the last 3 nights DD and I have both fallen asleep after/during side-lie nursing and stayed next to each other in bed for the remainder of the night.
opps it didn't post...
Anyway, my other FFC is that we have a closet and dresser full of clothes (and the NB sized stuff is already packed away). I have only purcased two outfits out of all of it. We have very generous friends and family and I have one friend that have a 7 month old son. It is their first and last child and she has sent me 3 huge boxes of wonderful hand-me-downs. They are all in great condition and very cute so I just don't see the point in spending money on clothes that we really don't need.
This!

I've told DH repeatedly that I "need extra calcium because I'm breastfeeding" as an excuse to make him go get ice cream...
Oh, and DS loves sleeping in his car seat.
I always hated moms who left their babies in the car seat all the time and now my baby is in his for a nap at least once a day. I think because we have to drive quite a way to get anywhere he is just used to being in it. I have tried everything to get him asleep with no luck. But if I put him in the car seat and swing it for about 5 minutes he's out and will sleep 2 hours.
That would scare me too. Strange men are creepy.
I also think my daughter is gorgeous.
I have no friends except my coworkers and you ladies. Call me pathetic. It's ok. I do feel bad for my DH though. He doesn't have any friends either because he doesn't know anyone here besides my family.
I'm a conservative.

Meimsx no more
I feel the same way. All of DH's friends are single/no kids and he still gets to go out once in a while. My friends are mostly married with kids, but their kids are older than DS and they are all back at work. I love being home with LO, but I miss adult conversation.
