FFFC- But let's flame if we want to!

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.

  • My fianc? works from home once or twice a week and i do the same thing. It's so hard to not assume he can help! Also I love your newborn picture of your baby girl- so adorable

    I don't always wash her new clothes before I put them on her.

  • Camden loves to snuggle with his blanket when he sleeps, and I let him. He also likes them right by his face.
  • I plan on having some personal time after getting the all clear on Monday. I will do this before C gets home. I am doing in partly to test the waters and see how bad it may hurt, but mostly because sex with my husband still isn't very good. 
    i wish i could be joking but my dad is the music teacher at a church so he owuld be mad. we had sex, all the time how bad i know but we dont want to wait and he said GREAT OH KAY! and I was really feeling the wets? down there- too embarsed to say- but he acted like man.
  • 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 sleep in my underwear. many days, i run a load of laundry and then go back to bed with lo. when we get up, i go out in the backyard in my underwear to hang stuff out to dry. dh saw me do it once and freaked (we have neighbors on all sides of us). i told him i didn't see what the big deal is because we have a fence. he told me to stop doing it and i agreed... but i still do it almost daily, and yesterday i saw a neighbor kid (middle schooler) looking through his fence.

  • 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!

    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.  

  • DH is counting the hours until Monday, my 6 week check, so I can be cleared for the secksytyme.  I, however am not.  We did a little trial fooling around the other night and it did not feel good.  He has even mentioned leaving Andy at his mom's for the night, which I'm considering.  Not for some lovin', but for some sleep.

  • 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

  • Speaking of sex, I have another. I'm considering lying to my husband and telling him I was NOT cleared for sex at my 6 week appointment. I'd like an extra week or two to not have to worry about having sex.

    I was still bleeding around 6 weeks, DH was working like crazy and too tired during week 7, and week 8 I got my period followed by a yeast infection. Honestly, I think the beta blocker they had to put me on killed my sex drive. I'm just not all that interested. But I'm not sure I can put it off any longer. I want to want to do it, if that makes sense, but these days, I just don't care all that much. Poor hubby!

  • H works from home every day, and I definitely take advantage of it.  I also don't wake H during the night when I feed DS.  When I hand him off in the morning around 6am when he refuses to go back to sleep, I always exaggerate how much I was awake during the night so that H feels bad and lets me sleep as late as I want.

    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.

  • Yeeeah... I was cleared for sex at 4.5 weeks PP, and here we are at 7 weeks and haven't done it yet. We had sex three times when I was pregnant. We are SO out of the habit and both feel awkward about it now. We just need to get drunk and do it. I'm planning a surprise weekend at a beach house for DH over Father's Day and have been pumping to build up a stash so I can have a night to get tipsy and go for it.

  • I'm obsessed with Hazel's hair. She was pretty bald for so long that this hair is a new journey. I was also sick of people always saying "oh do you think she'll get hair soon?" 
    i wish i could be joking but my dad is the music teacher at a church so he owuld be mad. we had sex, all the time how bad i know but we dont want to wait and he said GREAT OH KAY! and I was really feeling the wets? down there- too embarsed to say- but he acted like man.
  • I'm taking the girls up to my hometown for the weekend and DH will join us tomorrow. I like giving everyone a chance to visit the kids but I'm making the 100mile trip because we get spoiled rotten. My children will be entertained and we will be fed and virtually waited upon. All I have to do is nurse when D needs it and occasionally correct H if she isn't listening to someone else. Oh and it keeps our house from getting any messier over the weekend. Shameful, I know. Oh and sometimes DH and I will go take a nap!

    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!

    DH had tried multiple times for some oral but every time dude would start to fuss or seriously cry so I had to attend to the baby. When he got out of the shower yesterday he surprised me by jumping up on the couch and shoving it in my mouth. I was nursing the whole time. 



    Not flaming. For me.....gross Bonidie! Haha. Ewww.

  • Right now, she likes to fall asleep on her back watching the tv. I know....couch potato already! She wakes and cries if I move her. So I butt the PNP up against the couch in front of her. With the carpet, I don't think she can easily push the PNP and fall.

  • DH sleeps on the couch lately, he left his blanket there and I was changing DS on the couch and he pooped in the middle of it. quite a bit got on his blanket. DH was playing xbox but heard it happen, freaked out and asked if any got on the blanket, I wiped it up and told him no, just on the diaper. I didnt want to wash it, even tho it is stained now..hes been sleeping on poop for a few nights.

    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.

    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.
