This momma is so much happier now that she's gettin some. Yes, I've know him just a little over a month but it happened one night when we were together. I was totally ok with it because we connected very well from the first date and I can see (and really hope it is) this being a long term thing. (Possibly even getting to the big M???)

I'm scared to introduce solids. I love nursing and it's so easy... I guess my confession is the opposite of most peoples: I'm not looking forward to starting solids and it stresses me out! Also because I still need to do a bunch of research on methods and figure out exactly what I'm going to feed this little guy! Ah!
I'm a nearly 40 year old woman who should know better but I'm having a pregnancy scare. And like a typical teenager, I'm afraid of taking a test to find out. I'm just going to do what I did when I was 19 and pray for my period to arrive.
I think the Crossfit/Insanity/P90X fitness crazes are psychotic and borderline unhealthy. I know there's a way to do all of it, but HONESTLY the people who do it/teach it/sell it on my timeline make me wanna stab kittens.

I did Insanity after DD2. I started about 8 weeks pp, and by the time I was done, I was in better shape than when I got pregnant. I did P90X after DD1, but I didn't finish the program. Over an hour everyday was miserable, plus Tony Horton may actually be the most obnoxious human on the planet.

Add me to this. Then moved in less than 4 months later.

You had sex in the hospital room right after your little girl had heart surgery?

Oh, I have a FFFC. This one may stir the pot a little bit, and I've been waiting until I felt more comfy. Here it is: I think my time staying at home and being a mom is easier than my day job.
Everyone always says being a mom is the hardest job, but I have not felt the constant mental and physical drain. I get moments of exhaustion with him and times where I cry from lack of sleep, but I really enjoy spending time with him - and even when he's crying or fussing I generally don't get in a tizzy. I will caveat this by saying I have a lot of support from my family and husband, and if I had more than 1 baby and a husband who traveled or worked late I'm sure I'd feel totally different. But at my job I literally get cold sweats and constantly feel my blood pressure rising, and i haven't had that in months.
@violet1183 I don't flame you for that. Having support helps, and also if you weren't happy at your job. I hated the job I had before I started staying home. But, my husband also worked midnights so I was pretty much on my own with both of my girls. I think the only reason I'm staying mildly sane with a 3rd is because my H is finally on days. I don't think I could handle being a mom of 3 and working. I suck at trying to juggle too much and I know so much would suffer.

That's what I was thinking!!! As a nurse, that is required to do hourly rounding on all of my patients, that makes me uncomfortable knowing that people actually do that in the hospital. I guess lucky for me, I work on a floor that is mostly post op hysterectomies so these women aren't cleared for that when they are there. Thank god.
I know! I'm side eyeing the hospital staff for not rounding on their patients. In the Congential heart unit here, the nurses sit outside the room, but there is a window so they can see inside and they are continually going in and out. We busted someone giving head to her boyfriend in the er while her kid was pretty sick.

I don't think we were ever that dramatic. TBH. I lurk a lot here but a lot of people are new and it's harder to jump in. But I still love all of you. Most of you. One of you.
I don't come around much anymore because the attitude of the board has changed and I don't like it. I'm stepping down as mod.
I'm sorry to hear that. There are lots of people who aren't active on here anymore and a lot who are now more active, so of course it's going to change.
LOL. I know it's going to change. No one said I have to like it.
@lavonnallama My FFFC - I think marshmellows are GROSS!! Ick. I always want to eat s'mores cause they look so yummy, but I don't like chocolate or marshmellows. So I just eat the Graham. lol
ITA. Marshmallows, cotton candy, peeps, etc. are all disgusting.

@nursemommy13 Finally somebody else who doesn't like marshmallows!! I constantly get the "you must be crazy" look when I tell people that I dont like smores.
I feel like there always have been and always will be cliques... But I don't think that the board right now is in anyway unaccepting or judgy... I feel like the ladies here welcome everyone with open arms and support 99% of the time.
I like the board more now. If there are cliques (was that spelled right?) I'm out of the loop. I'm not in any of them. I wasn't even cool enough to figure out who everyone was talking about with the holier-than-thou conversation. That one went right over my head. I didn't bother PMing anyone because I didn't want to seem like the doofus on the outside of a hudle trying to look over people's shoulders to see what was going on inside. If it were up to me we'd all holds hands and sing Kumbaya.
As for marshmallows, I could take 'em or leave 'em.
I feel like I post pretty regularly, but I don't really feel like I'm "friends" with anyone. I'm cool with that though, I use TB as a place to get a break from my day and reality and learn new things about being a mom and I enjoy that. But I can see where people feel some things are clique-ish.
@majwv8 I feel the same. I post a lot here but if I stopped, I doubt anyone would notice! I like being able to get baby and parenting tips, but sometimes it does feel cliquey, especially with the GTKY posts today.

@majwv8 I was just thinking that- I post pretty regularly, but I still don't feel like a "regular." I still have trouble even understanding TB lingo. I just figured out what GTKY stands for. *I think it's Get to know you.*
Anyway- I still don't feel like I'm "friends" with anyone- I feel like I could be friends with certain people though.
Yeah the GTKY kinda sucked today. No one would miss me. Usually stuff I contribute to gets overlooked. Guess stuff I say isn't useful but oh well!! This is board is still entertaining most days. I also love the PoTD threads and random PIP threads and I like all the ladies on here
