I go back to work January 6, and I haven't done a single thing to prepare for the new semester. This is a lame confession, but it's what is on my mind the most at the moment.
Another TV confession: I am watching Full House. It's my guilty pleasure. I will probably forever love that show.
Full House is one of my favorite shows ever! I met Dave Coulier on a red eye and he was rude!
That's disappointing! I prefer to think if him as Uncle Joey!

Judging by "You Oughtta Know" he seems like a jerk!
Olivia and Matilda, 09/10/201 - Graham, 10/01/2013
Confession: I thought I'd enjoy being a SAHM more than I do. I miss working and contributing financially. I had an emotional breakdown last night about my overwhelming desire to go back to work. I didn't think these feelings would come up so soon, yet here they are 7w PP.
I thought of several this week AND I even wrote them down on a post-it on my desk so I wouldn't forget them! #winning #TBhashigherprioritythanrealworkobv
1. I have been pumping in my office all week and I keep thinking I need to do a test run driving by on the street outside my window to check if you can see in with my window shade drawn (it's more like a sun shade than a real privacy-type shade). It's possible I've been flashing my tits at the high school across the street all week. Oops.
2. I have worn my husbands button down shirts and the same pair of jeans to work every day this week. If it is possible to have a negative amount of fucks to give, that is where I am at.
3. I don't do it anymore because I don't have time, but when I was super bored in my late pregnancy I would go back in the HDBD thread and quickly scan to see who got the most 'love its', and be secretly pleased if it was me. #loveitwhore #sorrynotsorry
I confess: I apparently love the high school, drama/soap opera shows!
First, I love Gossip Girl, and even DH has watched it with me.
Second, now I'm on a Glee marathon.
You would LOVE One Tree Hill!!
Just started watching Friday Night Lights, which is just like OTH. Guess I'm 13 too.
Any Pretty Little Liars fans? And I loved The Lying Game but I think it is over.
Secret Life got real annoying at the end.
My FFFC: I love teenage dramas and am 13 on the inside. My all time favs were 90210, Party of Five, and My So Called Life. At least those were age appropriate at the time.
PLL FTW here too! I also loved The Lying Game but I do believe it's over as well. Boo, it was so good at the end! I wanna know what happens to them! Are you watching Ravenswood? I like that one too. Those are my guilty pleasure shows...
DD loves the What Does the Fox Say video. If she is fussing she quiets down and goes still, till the music picks up. Then she becomes a wiggle monster. I really have to get more culture in her.

eta: Just youtubed it. I thought it was a book. Pretty sure I just lost brain cells
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Back the truck up. Friday Night Lights is a FAR superior show to friggin One Tree Hill. Not a teen drama at all. Just a show that happens to be about high school football.
We're still trying to intro bottle to LO and my mom's 200 year old friend who is a mother/baby nurse suggested dipping the nipple in sugar water so she would take it.
What is with the hashtags all of a sudden? I guess my confession is that I think they look misplaced on a message board where they have no meaning or use.

I've never had issues with my body/look but ever since giving birth I can't help but feel sad about my wrecked body. I have stretch marks all over my butt/hips/thighs. None of my clothes fit me anymore. I've had my hair down maybe five times during the past two months. I rarely even leave my house.. I feel so down.
I've always been a skinny minnie (127 was the most I've ever weighed and that's when I got my bfp) I gained 55 pounds during pregnancy and I've lost 40 pounds since birth but it's just not the same.
Some of the posts yesterday about your body PP just made me even more sad.
Flame away. I probably need someone to set me straight anyway.
Now that I'm back at work and LO is STTN, I don't get to see her as much. After I put her to bed at night, I miss her. So I watch her on the video monitor and fight the urge to wake her up just to see her cuteness.
1. I'm 35 and thought I'd never have kids of my own due to PCOS. I accepted it and moved on. I never thought parenting would be as rewarding as it is. I'm a sappy mother and I love it!
2. I also said I'd never be "that mom" who puts bows on her baby's head. I organized them yesterday and she has an insane amount for being 11 weeks old. The pic doesn't show all of them and I know I'll buy/be given more n

It was part of the UO yesterday and really amusing --to me.
I like the way my baby looks with her ears pierced but have been hesitant to share pics of her now bc I want to avoid the judgey comments.
But I'll do it now bc it should be flame free here today.. so here's Amelia in all her fabulousness. Who am I kidding, I'll prob skill get flamed..but whatevs

Totally agree. Friday Night Lights is in a category of its own, so good! Not that I don't also love OTH and Gossip Girl... Looks like I need to find some sequin uggs. My confession is lame but I realized that I absolutely love staying home with my daughter right now but I hate feeling like a dutiful housewife with my DH. I suddenly have anxiety about getting the house clean, having dinner ready and looking busy when DH gets home. He's working like 60 hours a week and often grumpy when he gets home and I feel like I'm living a 50's sitcom. I appreciate everything he's doing but I miss feeling like my powerhouse self, and I think I'm totally letting him get away with his underlying attitude. I'm flaming myself for that!

I hear yah. I still have lbs to lose and can't so much about it right now...if I change my diet right now my supply tanks, I have tried several times. Going for walks right now sucks with how icy it is. Sucks ass.

I just realized my toddler has been wearing the same shirt since Wednesday. The only reason I realized this is because he went shopping with my husband Thursday and MH let him try on cologne at one of the stores. LO just gave me a hug and he still smells like an old man.
My LO's first smile was at my DH. I should have been happy that he smiled but I was pissed that it wasn't at me. I'm the one who takes care of him all day, reads stories, and sings songs to him. I have gotten a smile since and bawled my eyes out because it was the best feeling ever, but I'm still bitter that his first smile wasn't for me.
Maybe you'll get the first giggle. My husband and I are currently competing for this.

I'm with you, it's a hard adjustment. But your body is amazing, you created your beautiful little Jude!!
And for what it's worth, I still think you look smashing!
I'm with EMJ&B. I got some fugly outfits. I brought them home and immediately put them in a bag to drop off at the Disabled Vets. One outfit was from my MIL... It was velour and made her look like a Christmas present. Hideous. I do not feel bad. I also exchanged a bunch if fugly stuff.
I had sex 3 weeks PP and lied to my ob about it. Whoops!
Last one, my MIL is super insecure and keeps saying that LO is going to like my mom more than her.... And I hope she does. My mom is confident and fun and awesome. I want my daughter to emulate those characteristics rather than the passive aggressive insecurity that my MIL spews. There. I said it. And I'm a total bitch for it.

I KNOW :-S
I will add that I've been unusually busy this week, and he has worn different pants every day. But yeah... #momfail

This one will deft be flameful: I am considering putting my belly button ring back in to cover up my horribly misshapen belly button. Don't tell cv! Lolz
I put mine back in the other day but took it out a day later because it's looking weird. It looks like there might be a tiny stretch mark on the actual tunnel, and when I put the ring in, it got really red. I'm afraid it will reject, so it's out for good. It was a sad day.
I always feel like I'm so behind on the threads on here! I can't keep up because I always go to the oldest ones first and I never make it to the most recent ones by the time LO is done eating. I was so late to the UO party yesterday - as in I just finished reading all 13 pages this morning.
I also do not understand why everyone always says "dead" and "that's what Tim said" - obviously inside jokes from before my time. The dead one is getting old.
I think hashtags on Facebook are annoying, but pounds were amazingly awesome in the UO yesterday!
Another confession. I thought the post titled 'baby fever on its way?' Was someone thinking her baby was about to get a fever. And I've been rolling my eyes since it was first posted.
I still haven't read the post but just realized it's probably about BABY FEVER. not a babies fever. Smh.
I was looking pretty messy earlier this week but needed to get out of the house so I put LO in the ergo and we took a walk. I spotted Rachel Zoe (dressed in all black with her signature hat and glasses) walk in into a yogurt place and I totally stalked her and went in to get yogurt no shame . She was w her son and two nannies (!). I said hi to her son and she was standing right next to me and ignored me lol. Ya... I felt pretty dumpy.
Oooh, I have one that's a UO, but I'm posting it here anyway, whateva I do what I want.
I recently lost coverage and had to switch to being covered by my (very small) company's policy and to add my son to that policy as well. Just to add my son is costing me $600 out of pocket per month. I have been online looking at getting a health insurance exchange policy for myself and my son. HOLY SHIT, it is going to be SO MUCH CHEAPER it's not even funny. A platinum policy for my son which includes pediatric dental will only cost me $180 out of pocket. It will cost less to provide coverage for me AND my kid combined than just to insure my son alone. THANKS OBAMA!!!! I LOVE THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT!
This is my first FFFC

1. sort your posts so the newest are on top and don't bother with anything beyond a page back or so. 2. Dead = your post was so funny it killed me, and now I am dead. It will never get old b/c it is like chatspeak 3. That's what Tim said is from a thread on 3rd tri I believe where a woman was talking all about her babydaddy Tim and how he was gonna leave his wife and she was super spoiled and...yeah. 4.
