UO -- Bring it!
WTH girls, let's get it going.
Here's mine -- I think it is RIDICULOUS that this board literally DIED after LJ and Blu's blowup.

Re: UO -- Bring it!
I think they are ugly on boys.
My UO: While I think it's great to do random acts of kindness, it's total lame to post on fb how you "paid it forward" in 2013. For instance: my former step-aunt (my mother and step father were divorced) put on fb "just paid for the person behind me's McDonald's meal- pay it forward 2013, people!" Oh, you so kindly paid for someone's chicken nuggets and so humbly posted it on fb. You sure are citizen of the year!
My judgment of the day: I took Nora to our basement to play, and after a little bit of her playing, I noticed a note on the floor with dried dog poo next to it. My husband wrote a note with the word poop with an arrow pointing at the poop and the word piss with an arrow pointing at a pee spot. In the time it took him to find paper and a pen, plus the time it took him to write the note, he could have just cleaned the damn mess.
<------ doesn't know what babylegs are, besides my deliciously chubby baby's legs.
I always tell everyone, if Lo had been first I'd be one and done.
I am not insane....I have medication for that
I feel really smart, because instead of carrying, birthing, and living through the newborn stage, I inherited a really cute little girl at 15 months. I met my DH when my SD (now 10) was the age Nora is now.
I think it's ridiculous when a baby/toddler over the age of 1ish walks around all day with a damnn pacifier in his/her mouth. There are two kids in CK's class who literally have pacifiers in their mouths ALL day, and my friend's 20-month-old does the same. She also hardly ever talks. Go figure.
I judge you for not knowing! They are basically leg warmers. www.babylegs.com
Seriously?! That would piss me off no matter what, but when there's a baby in the house who could get into it, clean up the sh!t, don't write a note about it!

I don't give a sh!t if this is an UO, but I'm glad to see you back!!!
Can I do a judgement?
I am not at all talking about any of us. More so my cousin who recently had her baby.
I Judge people who complain and whine about their pregnancies,when they should try to enjoy it well it lasts. (medical conditions not included)
You are pregnant not dieing, Oh your feet hurt, oh your back hurts, oh you have gas, you will live!!
There are far too many people out there that would die for a chance to be pregnant or pregnant again.
He likes to tell me it's my dog, so I get to clean the mess. As amazing as he is sometimes, he can be so frustrating other times. Lazy bastard...
Here's a judgment from me:
There's a family I know, whose 6-month-old son has the same syndrome Abby has. The litte boy had his cataracts/lenses removed in November and got his glasses the first part of December. In almost all of the pictures I see of him on FB, he doesn't wear his glasses. I know they can be a PITA, but fcuk, your baby is 100% blind without them! I totally judge that mom for promoting her kid to be blind, instead of giving him the opportunity of sight.
I hate this logic in regards to anything. There is always someone out there who wants what you have or is going through something worse. It doesn't mean that (in general) whatever you are going through doesn't suck or isn't worth being able to vent about. Being pregnant sucks sometimes and can be super uncomfortable. Not everyone can find something enjoyable about the end result. And you could extend that into, no one can complain about being overtired or the fact that breastfeeding sucks or is super hard or teething or any other parenting thing because someone out there wishes they could have those problems to complain about. Sometimes shiz sucks even if someone else wants what you have.
I 100 percent agree with this one especially when I look around my house that I picked up 10 minutes ago that is completely destroyed.
And I have no UO.. My brain has shut down.
I know I am.
Same counts for us with Aidan. Or no. But they would be a lot farther apart.
I agree with Lopes. I am so grateful I had a healthy, beautiful baby; however, I didn't dig pregnancy. It was mainly due to the fact my child's head was literally stuck in my rib cage, and I could not breathe. I also had a colic baby... And as much as I loved her, it was frustrating. I felt guilty for not being happy about the situation, but I had to let it out or else I really would have gone crazy.
I can not stand the "NPR radio voice" it puts me to sleep. Ugh!
Hot dogs are gross.
I am perfectly ok with Alastair still having bottles and his paci. Paci he only takes in the car and the stroller. But even if it was more, I would be fine with it.
I am fine with wearing pjs in public. As in I will not change to pick up bananas and bread. It is comfy, it fits, it's fast and it is what's clean as I get puked on about five times a day. Deal with it, or not. I don't get why people even care.
I judge people who give opinions and advice to parents without ever having been a parent.
I am pretty sure i have more but I am blanking right now.
Oh, and welcome back LisaJay. Glad to have you back.
Agree. I think it's a competition. Sometimes I see people with multiple kids and think...I can do that too and then I realize I don't need to one-up anyone and someday I may be able to sleep through the night again.
One of my UO are that I hate when people vaguely post on FB that they are sad or mad or whatever and it's so vague that no one has any clue what they are talking about, but they really want you to care.
I really want to come up with a good UO....I'll keep thinking.
Watch out- fancy, octopus hot dogs are procreating!!1!11!!!
I have about enough energy to make it through the day. I admit, it was a mix out of an easy first baby and complete and utter idiocy. And now, well, I feel if I haven't shot myself when Aidan is 1, then I can handle a third no problem. So...yes. I am nuts.
This drives me crazy! On Facebook everyday I read 5 posts saying I am so done being pregnant, I am so uncomfortable, I am so tired! Ugh, suck it up you know how many women have been pregnant before you? You are just making yourself look like a fool!
The latest one said, can't wait to hold my girl, so tired and uncomfortable! Only 10 more weeks to go! Ya, she is 27 weeks pregnant, you have 13 weeks to go! 37 weeks is not the end line, unless medically necessary. 40 weeks means done... And you are only 27 weeks, it's gonna get way worse sweety!
I concur.
This is mostly directed at the guy at work who recently read The China Study and preaches every dmn day that meat causes cancer. Let me enjoy my buffalo chicken in peace!
I might be insane. When I was pregnant with DD2, I thought, 4-5 years and then we'll try for #3. Right now, today, with a 9 day old newborn, I'm thinking I want another baby. Someone please slap the postpartum hormones out of me.
While I agree that this may not be the best nutritional choice, a family on a limited budget usually cannot afford healthier food in the quantities they may need.
i.e. They can probably feed their kids for 10 days on Chef Boyardee OR 5 days on something better. It's a tough choice I'm glad I don't have to make.
And then there are People who are out of ideas if their kids won't eat anything else.
I bought 4 apples yesterday and it costs me $5.39. My first thought was "Holy sh*t! No wonder poor people can't afford to eat fruits and veggies!"
I really think a lot of it has to do with the doctor you see. I have a very proactive GP, she listens and takes action quick! I have never waited more than a couple days to get into see her and if I have to see a specialist she refers me and I am into see them in 2 weeks max!
Our pediatrician is awesome and everyte I have called with an issue for B, he has been seen that day!
My sister on the other hand has a horrible doctor and has to wait months to be seen and her doctor takesore of a reactive approach.
I know there are a lot of flaws in our health care but I think one of the biggest flaws is some of the doctors not doing there job properly.
Smit and bees mama...I totally agree. Eating healthy costs big bucks and its sad. it's generally not an option for families on a budget. Growing up I was that family and I've been overweight for most of my life.
