TGIF!
Mine is that my husband works from home on Fridays but I treat it like a day he has off. I know that he has to work and concentrate but I still ask him to help me with 1 million things throughout the day. It isn't fair to him. But I don't really care.
Re: FFFC- But let's flame if we want to!
I don't always wash her new clothes before I put them on her.
DH has never done a night feed (anything between 10pm-4am) and DD will be 2 months old tomorrow. He works 10-12hrs a day, and I am home on ML for now and we agreed that as long as I am home with DD, that I will do the night feeds.
I'm usually really quiet and try not to wake him up during the night feeds (tip toe out of the bedroom, close door behind me since we feed DD in the living room, whisper to DD and shush her while I'm changing her so she wont wake DH up on the monitor) but the last few nights, DD has been up at 11pm and then 3am wanting to eat. I am exhausted by 3am and have been totally jealous that DH gets all of that uninterrupted sleep. I have purposely been "loud" the last few nights and have woken him up.
I've got a pretty good deal going on with DH and LO. I put LO to bed by 10:00. If he stays up later, DH puts him down. I go to sleep and DH handles the night feed. I get up in the morning with LO (between 6 and 7) and let DH sleep as late as he wants. I usually get about 5 hours of LO time in the morning before DH gets up.
My FFFC? In the mornings, LO is a dream! He naps on and off, and plays by himself on his activity mat, smiling up a storm. DH thinks I'm dealing with a whiny, needy baby, and I don't correct him. He's so grateful to get to sleep in, he lets me take a nap or go out by myself. Yesterday, I went to the pool with my neighbor and a pitcher of cocktails for two hours! I guess as long as we both feel like we've got the better end of the deal, we both win!
I love your sig pic on the right. I want to catch my ds with his double chin showing like that. Too cute!
Wait a sec, you went to the pool. My fat butt will not be in a swimsuit for a while. Lucky!

After telling R how scared I was about DTD again, he told me to do this. It made me laugh at the time, then I realized how smart it actually was.
I have two:
1) we had sex on Monday, three days before my six week checkup
2) I put Rhett to sleep on his belly last night

A15 January Siggy Challenge-
My dr did tell me to wait another week, she said my stitches were gone but it was still pretty raw down there. We finally tried to do it yesterday while she was sleeping and as soon as we started she started crying! I was actually mad because I was in the mood for once and I just want to get the first time over with.
Hahahaha!!!
Thanks! He's quite the chubs!
Not related but funny story. We call Camden "Chubbie" and "Chubs." DH had to go to a meeting last night that he didn't want to go too. I told him to tell them that he had to get home quick because he had a Chubbie to take care of. He busted out laughing with tears in his eyes and I realized what that sounded like. LOL! He said, "yeah...I probably wont be telling them that."
I'm hiding 4 cupcakes in the baby's room.
It's downstairs and we (mostly, I) only go in there to get her clothes for the day because she sleeps in the RnP in our room.
I have a bad cupcake habit and there is the most delicious shop just down the road. I don't want to deal with DH side-eyeing me while eating one since my jeans don't fit and I'm always complaining about it (he knows better than to actual say anything though.) However I manage to stay within my WW points on the days I eat one so...that's how I'm justifying it.

Lately Evelyn is only waking up once around 4 am. My hubby has offered to take over "one" night feeding. The last week I have told him it's his turn at 4am, knowing she hasn't woken up before and knowing she will sleep after until 6-7. He's hard at hearing so he never hears when I get up and I always get her as soon as she starts grunting so she never starts crying. How would he even know? I feel bad, but I think it's well deserved since I did ALL the feedings the first 6 weeks myself. I'm naughty I know!
Not flaming. For me.....gross Bonidie! Haha. Ewww.
Agreed! Youre a better wife than me! If my husband tried that I'd tell him off probably.
Um. Yeah. Wow. My husband wouldn't whip his diick out in front of our kid and shove it in my mouth, no matter how young our kid is.
Yea, mine either. That story has a definite ick factor. DH didn't want to carry DS the other morning to change his diaper cause he had a morning wood. I didn't blame him, seems weird to me too.
I find this disgusting and disturbing. My DH would never "shove" anything in my mouth especially if I was feeding our child. Perhaps it's your usage of the word "shove" and "jumping" on the couch that sounds so bad...but you have a history, IMO, of using questionable (and I'm being nice) ways of describing things.
I would have bit him. Did you really take it? Gross
it's sad that your husband would do it in the first place, and that you'd feel like a "bad wife" for having him wait 10 minutes for you to finish feeding your child.
I agree. I think I'm a great wife without doing this. I don't think you have to do these things to be "great" bonidie. I understand wanting to make your husband happy. Myself, I'd just keep the sexual stuff and the baby stuff separate. The only thing that might be close is possible sex in the bedroom with her asleep in her bassinet, but I'm still not sure how I feel about that even. I don't know......sex and baby together just icks me out. I feel like they are two totally separate parts of my life and need to be kept separate.
If my taking the d!ck that my husband forces into my mouth makes me a great wife then I'll be a shittty one all day long
amen
Hell yes. This is seriously weird to me to say the least.
