    I think certain people on here take things way too seriously. For example the Bumpie awards. Some people are more active than others are. People know more about them. Get over it. They didn't nominate themselves and it was done in fun. STFU already.



    Yikes, I hope this wasn't about me! I've just been joking around!
    This was my thought too! I know my kid is cute... And I had never posted pics of him on here so of course I wasn't on the ballot... :-??

    @mae208 I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who took your comments like that.


    @bkeane619 Correct. A little defensive about your bumpie award, aren't you? Lol And like I mentioned yesterday- no matter what I say, some of you will find a way to get heated over it. Not my problem!

    I have no compassion when DH has interrupted sleep.  Last night he had to drive to the airport to pick up family arriving at 2am, he went to sleep at 6pm and I was up wrapping gifts and breaking down shipping boxes without a care as to how loud I was.  Baby was sleeping in his crib and he did just fine.  In my defense, he was not driving and I have never once asked him for help in the middle of the night.

    i don't believe you. you are a liar. he CIO....just admit it. this is just simply impossible.


    In the interest of full disclosure, I put his changing pad in the crib because he loves it so much and he actually put himself to sleep.  Maybe @marriedtopremed can learn something here...

    This is a great idea! DD loves her changing pad as well. If I have trouble transitioning her to the crib, I will have to try this.



    You're a genius. LO loves his changing pad. Every time we lay him on it to change his diaper, he isn't fussy and has a huge smile on his face!!! I will deft be trying this when we move him to his crib!!!!!!

    I am a mess today! LO had a super huge poop and peed right on me during the diaper change. Then, after I got him dry and settled, I go into the bathroom to spray the CD. I forgot a friend was coming by to borrow some tools so when I heard the doorbell, I dropped the CD in the toilet and let her in. Then LO started fussing so I picked him up and chatted with my friend before assembling the tools. My friend asked if she could use the bathroom before leaving since she needs to shut off the water at her place. So she goes in and I hear "Ummm...there's some sort of poop rag in the toilet..." I said "Oh, that's mine" and reached right in to grab it. The look on her face was awesome! My FFFC: I could care less if I have a pee spot on my shirt and am holding a sopping poo dipe. I wouldn't change places with my childless friend for anything!
    @laurenmdrn16 you know you don't really have to spray/rinse diapers until you start solids, right?  Or are you one of the bumpies who started solids already and got massively flamed for it?  Cannot remember...

    We put a heating pad that covers dd's entire crib mattress and it's always on low. She has slept so much better since we did this when she was a month old. She's almost three months old.

    LO is FF and we have an old ...crappy...washing machine. His poops are fairly hefty (he hadn't gone in 2 days so this was the breaking of the dam) and MH is super proud of the sprayer he

    @sooner1981 Thanks for your input. I'm home all day and check if while she's in the bed. I will try without the heater a few times to see how she does.

    In other news, my dad and stepmom bought us a heated mattress pad for our bed for Christmas. I get so cold when dh isn't in bed with me. He's gone a lot on the weekends.

    Serious confession: Bouncing off of @carriet2018 's post, I totally judge Christians based on which part of the Bible they're most gung ho about.  If you're a Christ-like Christian--like the new Pope, who I may not agree with on some things, but who seems to really get the whole Christianity-as-a-verb thing--I respect that a lot.  If you're all over the more fire-and-brimstone-y bits of the OT and, say, Paul and Timothy, rather than the words of Christ, I judge the hell (aheh) out of you.  Forget "keeping Christ in Christmas"--that holiday has absorbed so much from other religious practices over time, so its celebration varies widely across cultures and individual.  From my perspective as a former Christian and current Christ-respecting non-Christian, more people need to focus on keeping Christ in Christianity. /soapbox

    Less controversial (I guess) confession: I absolutely do believe in Santa Claus.  If you think he's not real, you're missing something big about the holiday.  And I mean that in a "Yes, Virginia" way, not a delusional way, but that still counts as real in my book.


    I feel like I am much more "spiritual" than "religious". Meaning I am much more concerned with my personal relationship with The Lord (including how I treat His other children) than all the "rules" of religion. I have a hard time being around people who are very religious but not spiritual. Like my FIL, he has all his doctorine memorized but treats people, including his own children, badly. I don't understand how he can't see the meaning behind everything he claims to hold so dear.

    Word. Utah is full of these lovely types.

    Home from shots...

    I snapped on a friend who has been dealing with gd. She is so worried about having it after pregnancy, that she has lost sight of her healthy baby. She is afraid of failing the step test because she has failed all the tests. I reminded her about the anatomy scene and having signs of downs, cleft palate, etc. I feel kind of bad about snapping, but she is lucky that her baby is doing so well. I need to have more patience with her. Maybe that will be my 2014 goal....

    I'm debating whether or not I need to go buy a pregnancy test. I haven't gotten my first pp period yet (almost 10 weeks pp), but feel like it's been on its way for 2 weeks now.

    I've said on here before that I want Irish twins, and I do want another sooner than later, but holy shit, I'm not ready. I'm torn up about which I want more: to give DD a sibling or to enjoy this period alone with her while she's little. I'm turning 38 next month, so I don't have a long time to decide.

    (Begin sarcasm) Nooo! Didn't you hear @bkeane619 ? It was all done in good fun, you are taking this WAY too seriously and you didn't get one so STFU already!!

    See what I did there? I'll start labeling my sarcastic comments for those who struggle to detect it.

    That didn't come across as sarcastic just obnoxious.
    Funny. It was pretty obnoxious when you wrote it as well.

    I took the joking ones as joking. To me hers didn't come of as joking since she asked if it was her I answered that it came off that way.

    My patented diplomatic thoughts about the whole superlative business... Yes, I can see that Mae's post about her older sibling was sarcastic *on it's surface* but that combined with her UO/FFFC? from the previous week about thinking the superlatives were only for the 'cool kids' etc is what leads me to believe there is a level of bitterness there, no matter how slight. It's a combination of a lot of posts.

    I could maybe agree with this if everyone that was jumping down her throat was not a winner or nominated. #noneedforflames #callmeawhiteknightidgaf #momhairdontcare Edited for dumb computer eating my response 4 times then DS waking up from his nap

    I'm confused. Why is EVERYONE ignoring the part where I said 'OF COURSE HE WASNT NOMINATED, I HAVE NEVER POSTED HIS PIC HERE BEFORE.'

    The drama y'all try and create in my name is hilarious, honestly.

    And I'm glad that you are able to decide my true feelings for me. If I'm so bitter why would i still be posting here?

    I get secret pleasure out of telling our friends that LO sleeps 5-6 hours at night. They have a 2 year old who has never slept that long (bc they pick him up every time he makes a peep). We are getting more sleep with a 7 week old than they are with a 2 year old.

    Note: we never let DS cry, he's just a good sleeper :-)

    You sound like a good friend.
    :-q

    My friend and I definitely have different parenting styles, and I think that's ok. For the whole time I was pregnant she kept telling me to, "sleep now because you never will again!" Getting 3 hours of sleep every night is normal for her and that's fine but I am happy that it's not for me. I feel really blessed that DS is a good sleeper. Obviously, at 7 weeks, we are not "doing" much to make him a good sleeper. Aside from cluster feeding at night and trying to have a consistent routine, it's all him :-) So yes, after hearing for 9 months how I will never sleep, I am happy that, when asked how LO is sleeping, I can reply honestly that he is doing great! I don't think that makes me a horrible friend but if you do, I'm ok with that.

    honey i have news for you. your baby will not keep sttn every night. sorry it ain't gonna happen. quit being so smug about your good sleeper bc it can and will change at a moment's notice.

    Fuck. I forgot about the 4mw.

    I had my post natal check up today. I was so excited to show my nurse Delaney that when my friend showed up to walk me back, she's a nurse with a different dr in the same practice. I was really sad :( Happy to see this friend but disappointed, my nurse was on vacation. Anyways, she was looking at D said she was so beautiful and started crying. Then I felt horrible for being disappointed about who was my nurse. Fast Forward 10 minutes later I'm sitting there spread eagle with my feet in stirrups and she just casually walks in and changes a towel dispenser. I felt awkwardly weird and it felt like she was there forever. So then I didn't feel so bad anymore.

    ETA- she did knock I probably shouldn't of used the word casually. The Dr didn't tell her to not come in.

    Seriousness confession
    Today I found out my uncle got his 14yo granddaughter drunk and molested her.

    I'd always idolized him as an artist, and I honestly don't know how I feel about the situation... You'd think there would be a serious switch to turn off the love. Does that make me a bad person? A naive one? /facepalm. Idk the 14yo.

    Yes, I was pretty shocked. I've never had someone come in during an exam before. In her defense she did knock and the Dr didn't tell her to not come in. She honestly looked a little weirded out too. She is a nurse I know she has seen this before, but still I don't think this experience was necessary.
