Facebook question
Why do people post how far dilated they or their wives are in their FB statuses?
It's like saying "I only used a light liner today, it's almost over!" No where in that sentence does it say vagina but that's all I'm forced to think about, wtf.
Anyone else? I love hearing some good Facebook statuses.

Re: Facebook question
I thought this was a good one. I had to quote it. This then led to a lengthy discussion on breastfeeding and her milk production. Just what everyone in the world wanted to know about.
"Awkward moment of my day: Went to GNC to get Mother's Milk tea(if you dont know what it is, look it up lol). The muscley 20-something dude at the register says "If this doesnt work we also have fenugreek supplement", "Ok, thanks" then he says "Well good luck with that" as he smirks at me.....ewww! Lol!"
P.S. If you don't know what Mother's Milk is, I didn't, it's a tea that is suppose to reproduce breast milk after you stopped feeding for some reason.
I actually like labor updates. It drives me batty to hear that someone's in labor/water broke/they're at the hospital, but then you don't hear from them for 3 days. My sister was in charge of keeping our families in the loop. She sent out an email letting everyone know that I checked into the hospital, was 8cm, got my epi and it would be soon after that. After DD was born, she sent out another email with the stats and a pic. There probably would've been more updates if my labor hadn't gone as quickly.
I don't know how many of your visit TheNest, but when DomerJenC had her son (home birth), I was stalking her blog like nobody's business.
My FB complaints:
- Cryptic "woah is me" status updates. Especially when you ask what's wrong and they don't reply, or don't want to elaborate.
- Airing your dirty laundry. Here are a couple gems from a girl I used to work with...
"So... I went to the funeral to tell that loser husband of mines to bring his ass home. After i parked i saw 2 of his cousins whom i asked to go tell himto bring his stank ass outside. A few minutes went y so i grabbed my son locked my car and we went inside. Hrms... He was no where to be found! I came back outside and ran into that same cousin, who now is acting like he dont know ***! (While we r inside i received 2 missed calls from him) anyhow so the*sshole calls i answered and his first words to me was, where you at?
Do you think they had warned him that i was there and he snuck out the other way? Well i do..... BASTARDS!. Oh just wait...."
"omg... What to do with a Mil who sticks up for her son whether or not he's right or wrong!"
ygpm in like 2 secs. If i find out your really a dude, im gonna be p!ssed.
lol j/k
PM from me too.
Me too!
That husband rant is crazy, seriously WTF?
I think email to family & friends is one thing. The girl I was referencing is my old neighbors wife, this was the whole thing "36 week appointment today! Doc checked me out and said I'm 1 cm dialated. I can't believe it will be any day now"
Maybe it was more of an eyeroll at the any day now comment. But she'll probably be one of those luckies that goes at 38 weeks while my jealous ars sat there waiting to be induce both times :P
I feel no need for my 19 yo wanna be gansta cousin to know how far dialated I am at my weekly check ups. Or anyone else that I"m merely friends with on FB.
