Ok, I just told my 7 week old if she doesn't quit whining for no reason ie she's not hungry, has on a clean diaper, etc, that "I brought you into the world and I will take you out"...she laughed at me. #mybabyisfuckingwithmypatience #shestoodamncutetoactuallytakeout
The pounding is awesome. #iapprove
And ladies, seriously, I need to fit back into my jeans just as badly as everyone else, but it took us 9 months to gain this weight and grow a human...give yourselves a break! Gif wars will ensue from now on. @chelseyestelle: wine. Lots of it. Oh, and hug your son.
The Affordable Care Act was enacted to assist people who have no avenues to get health insurance; yes, this means it will affect people who have insurance through their jobs. This is not Obama's fault, but insurance companies...be sure you are mad at the right people. Also, 'Merica should have never been built on the concept on capitalism and asshatery...that is all.
@HFrizzle sorry, I just have to ask... How would you feel if you found out that your husband had a fake profile that he used to talk to his first love and kept from you?
I'm not crazy jealous, so my husband is able to talk to people he's dated in the past. It's the past! He has several old gf on his FB and I am also friends with several of them as well. I don't care who he talks to, nor does he with me. Shit, my husband and him have talked on FB back and forth several times when she "allowed" us to be friends.

Shit, I HAVE coverage through my job and it's still going to be cheaper! In fact, all 3 employees at my office are going to just sign up for exchange coverage and the company will reimburse us for our OOP costs and the company will still be spending less than it did for 'group' coverage (which is a joke w/ only 3 employees).
I am friends with several exes (sp) so is my DH. I can understand why he may feel the need for a fake profile but why do you? If your friend has a fake profile his wife doesn't know about why do you need a fake profile as well. The situation just is a little weird. I do have an Ex who is/was a great friend. However, once I got married our communication really has tanked. So who knows.

I don't. I never really thought of why we did it that way, we just did. I can see where it looks weird that we both did it.
I have a fake FB page so I can talk to an ex boyfriend. My husband knows all about the fake profile and that I talk to him. It's not my husband that has the issue, it's the ex's insecure wife. She has never liked me cause I was his first love (those feelings were not reciprocated btw) and for some reason sees me as a threat. I haven't actually seen him in person on close to 17 yrs and we live in different states, but he's not allowed to talk to me at all. So we both have fake profiles and check in on each other a couple times a week. He's a really good friend of mine and that's why it didn't work out romantically (not that at 15 I was think romantically). We just felt it was better to save the friendship than ruin it with a nasty break up, plus the feelings just weren't there that way.
This is disgusting. His marriage is more important than talking to you a couple times a week. I feel awful for his wife. You're encouraging him to lie to her. Go get a new friend. If you have to lie and make fake profiles YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT. What do you gain from it you can't gain from talking to another friend? And what could he lose? If it's really worth it, he shouldn't be with his wife. She has every right to feel insecure and uncomfortable about it because there's obviously something there for him, otherwise he wouldn't risk it.

Nope. This would not sit well with me either.
Why doesn't it sit well with you? It's just causal conversation here and there, nothing else. We don't even live in the same state, we don't text or talk on the phone, no emails, it's innocent conversation. So I'm honestly not sure what the big deal is.
I just think it's weird to have fake profiles. If you were just chatting on FB or even texting/emailing/phone calls to catch up, it would be one thing, but I think making fake FB profiles takes it to another level. I agree with PP that it's disrespectful to his wife.
There are fake profiles because she doesn't allow us to communicate. They have only been married for maybe 10yrs and has never liked from day one. He and I have been friends for nearly 20 yrs. she doesn't allow him to be friends with any women, yet she is able to be friends with her ex's and has even cheated on him with one. So rather than throw away a friendship of 20 yrs we hide it from her.
She's crazy and I could careless.
He needs to grow a pair. Either divorce her since she's had affairs and there are double standards or fix it so there's trust in their marriage and come to a common ground where they aren't insecure about their spouses relationships and then be friends. What his wife is doing isn't okay, but shit if he's doing this behind her back she has a reason to not trust him.

We never did anything behind her back until she wigged out me about a yr ago cause I sent them a Christmas card. To her, that was crossing a line. It was a family Christmas card that I sent to all of our friends and family with pictures of my girls only. That was the first time I sent them a card, so they were new to my list. But she thought that me knowing where they live was too much. Little does she know that I've none where he's lived all along because that's the damn house he bought right out of hs.
I agree that their issues are their issues. I don't bring them up and if he wants to talk about something, then I will listen. My only advice to him has always been counseling. Their issues are a lot deeper than our friendship, but we aren't going to throw away a 20 yr friendship because she doesn't like me for absolutely no reason.

She's batshit and insecure because she's not faithful. But it's his MARRIAGE. Be the adult and tell him you're not comfortable being friends like this and that he needs to work on things with his wife if you two are going to be friends. His marriage is going to fail anyway if you keep it up and she finds out. Either make him pull the trigger himself and move on and then be friends or at least work on it so there's no secrecy. I would be so uncomfortable lying to his wife like that and being friends with someone like that because it's wrong on so many levels. Just because she's a bitch or a cheater doesn't make it okay. #twowrongsdontmakearight #othercliches #poundit
Here's another one for me. I do not like my 18 year old stepson. I'm counting down the days until he goes to college. I'm hoping he gets out of his teenager I-know-it-all phase and I can like him again quickly (maybe after a few months at college). I've had him since he was 5 and he has no relationship with his bio mom.
I am really hoping my older sister sends DD1 something she won't like for Christmas so i can tell her off. DD1 decided back in november what she wanted my older sister to get her for Christmas and when she told her my sister told her it was too early to think about stuff like that. Well my 4 year old wanted to make sure my sister knew what she wanted. My older sister hasn't brought it up again. She got DD1 two books that were way too old for her as birthday gifts. Also if she sends the gift to my parents(we are going there for Christmas) and DD1 doesn't like it, I am hoping my mom realizes that my older sister only pretends to care about my kids when she can benefit.
My confession is that I was really annoyed people kept getting my five year old presents when the baby was born because I knew she'd expect presents whenever the baby got one and I don't want to set that precedent, but then my dad only brought the baby a present (he lives five hours away and has only spent a couple days with my stepdaughter) and I was upset he didn't bring anything for her. But I also don't think he's sending her a birthday present this year. I don't think he sees her as his grandchild and that upsets me. Especially compared to my mom, who is barely making it, he definitely can afford to send a freaking card. And a gift if he wanted to.
I also just realized I forgot to put deodorant on after my shower.

Uh rude and tacky much? You and your daughter do not get to decide what people buy her for Christmas. If someone asks her or you what she wants to get suggestions, then that's one thing. But to tell someone off because they don't buy her the exact thing she wants? Nope octopus. And not buying what your daughter wants does not mean your sister only pretends to care about her.
The other day in the McDonald's drive through, the woman commented on how beautiful my car is (I drive a 2011 Dodge Charger in toxic orange...if you care). I totally assumed she was talking about my LO in the back seat and was like "Yes, he is beautiful!" She gave me the oddest look and it wasn't until I was down the road, that I realized she had said car and probably had not noticed him in the backseat.
DH has been working side jobs after work all week and has racked up a decent amount of money. He asked me to sign on to my amazon account so he could just purchase my entire wish list for Christmas. I spent about an hour deciding if I should add more things this morning.
@mweav25 you are a snot raising a snot! If my child ever told someone what they had to buy them, I would punish them not encourage them. Your sister probably stays the fuck away because you and your child act like this. and you I turn think its because she doesn't care about your child.
How do you manage in this area? They are everywhere! You are a little north of me but we have them almost on every corner.
I guess I confess that I don't give to them because I was almost swarmed by a group while in Romania. Luckily I recognized what was happening before they surrounded me. A little kid was the initial one to approach me so I'm bad about not even giving to little kids. I do give to the ASPCA because how can you not feel for those innocent faces.
@HFrizzle it doesn't matter why she doesn't want him to talk to you or how you feel about it. It is his marriage and you shouldn't be enabling him to go behind his wife

::side eyeing:: Soooooo, you're upset that your sister bought books, you want her to buy something your daughter won't like so you can tell her off, you think it's acceptable for your daughter to demand what her aunt buys her, and you think she's pretending like she cares?
We haven't DTD since 38 weeks, he's now 7 weeks! It's just been crazy stressful busy and hectic couples with sickness but...still! That, and I'm all over the place on the vaccination issue
I'm kind of annoyed by all of the blowing smoke up everyone's asses posts lately. Motherhood's made all of you soft! lol
My ILs call spit up cheese (not sure if it's a rough translation from Spanish) and it grosses me out, but I have yet to say anything about it to them.
The other night when I got in bed DH was trying to get all groovy. He stops sniffs my breasts and says "why do your boobs smell like Kraft?" LO had spit up all over me and I had forgotten.
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.
Didn't work. Now we'll prob get thrush.
@ballstategrad Actually they still do this in hospitals. We use a packaged brand SweetEase, but when it comes down to it, it is sugar water. We use it on pacifiers during shots and blood draws. It won't cause thrush so rest easy!
I am overly annoyed by rainbow-colored icicle lights. Regular rainbow/multi-colored Christmas lights? Cool. White or white-blue icicle lights? Dandy. But colorful icicle lights? Not realistic. I've never seen a real-life rainbow icicle. White or white/blue is fine to me, more realistic if it's all white, but I'll give blue a pass too because it's cold-looking.

Pretty sure this a UO that's on Thursdays! And if you are new you should introduce yourself! Unless you have and I don't remember.
I nearly ignored the fever I developed this afternoon. Ended up in ER like good girl. Promised to return in AM if fever doesn't break. Have another UTI
1. I spent upwards of 5 hours today pretending I won the megamillions lottery. I picked out my house, a new car, decided how much I was going to give family members and picked out a spectacular vacation to Sri Lanka, complete with plane tickets. Yeah, I just now realized I in fact didn't win and I made myself depressed. Btw... I didn't even buy a ticket.
2. In my head I totally get the 4 present thing. I know lots of people that do that and it seems like they have a great Christmas. But, I just can't do it. Buying presents is pretty much my favorite thing and so I will probably just buy a lot always. I mean, I'm not going to put is into major debt or something, but I save money especially for Christmas and kind of go crazy. My parents bought me and my sister quite a few things for Christmas, but not just a bunch of crap, quality things. I don't think either of us is spoiled, so I don't think DD will be spoiled either if I buy a lot of Christmas presents for her. I should add, my parents didn't buy us things every week like a lot of people I know do. We got a few birthday presents and lots of Christmas presents. That was pretty much it.
My ILs call spit up cheese (not sure if it's a rough translation from Spanish) and it grosses me out, but I have yet to say anything about it to them.
My mother does this and shes British so it can't be a translation thing ... she's referring the spit up that looks curdled
Ah ok. In the first couple days FIL asked if she had cheeses yet. I was just like dafug? Either way calling it that grosses me out to no end. Barf. Cheeses barf.
