  I'm sad everyday that my friends I've had for years don't talk to me. But, I can't say that I've made the effort to talk to them. I guess I just finally got tired of always being the one to reach out and try to make plans, just for them to break them.

  So after our random drive by I have to admit that I too have yet to buy diapers since DS was born.  We bought 2 or 3 boxes in preparation and then we were gifted with a lot.  I should have enough left to last till we hit six months.  I am not complaining by any means that I have to buy them because that would be stupid but I am feeling pretty lucky that we have made it this far.

  @kquinonez-
  Same. We still have 6 boxes, and 3 small packs. I've had to exchange sizes but haven't had to buy any either. I realize what a blessing it is.

  DH was getting DS out of his car seat yesterday when we got home and my left hand was pushing back the car seat cover, and between my hand being in the way and DS's head being high because he was being lifted out, my ring scratched his head.  I think I cried longer than he did, but I felt terrible.

  I hate getting or asking for help... Not because I don't want to take a advantage but because it's not going to get done the way I want anyway. I'll just go back and redo it so why waste the time. Also other people are slow or so it seems.

  
  

  IMO if your going to help someone do it their way unless they say otherwise.

  Between the diapers and breastfeeding, we hardly have spent any money on necessities.  I also have enough baby wash to last till he is 18.  This is why DS's closest is ridiculous.  I spend my diaper money on new outfits that he "needs".

  I understand this, to a point for sure. But this way of thinking is one of the main reasons my mother and I barely get along. If I don't do things her way, to the tee, I'm doing it wrong and I've now become just a huge pain in her ass. Really puts a damper on the ol' mother/daughter bond.

  This is us, too.  We only give LO 1-2 baths a week so we are still using the baby wash the hospital gave us.

  @bendicott7. I'm sorry that happened! It's the WORST when you cause something bad to happen. I went to lay LO down on my husbands chest a few weeks ago, and he was adjusting himself and I went to put him down... well they head butted each other.

  I'm frustrated because the baby went from waking up one time per night to waking up 3–4 over the last 2 weeks. He's hardly eating during the day, because he's getting all of his calories at night. DH is helping by getting up for at least one feeding, which is awesome, but when I'm upset and crying out of exhaustion & frustration, he thinks he's helping me feel better by telling me that I'm overreacting and that other people have it way worse, and that we just need to relax.
  I know he is trying to help, but I wish he would just fucking agree with me and shut up! Ugh, I'm tired. Don't mess with me today apparently.

  I'm guessing to avoid lifting it over her head? I thought of a confession yesterday, got all excited about having something to contribute, then forgot my confession. The whole thing is just sad.

  This one may get me flamed. I get a little nutty when people post on specific day posts (bitchfest, tmi, etc) later on in the week. It's one thing to reply to something someone said or getting a post to a certain number of pages, but just randomly posting on tmi on Friday (example) makes me twitch.

  I confess I have been a dirty lurker lately. Since I work from home a few days a week and take care of LO I don't get much done and then am crazy busy when I'm in the office... Which was my usual bump time.
  
  LO was born on September 1st so we are tardy to the party for everything. I use your posts to see what to look forward to... Or not. We currently just started the 4 month sleep regression. I was naive and thought it would skip us since she has been STTN for a while but no such luck. At least I was warned.
  
  I will make an effort to contribute more again. Thanks for all the warnings, info, and laughs ladies.

  I really want to give Caroline avocado today for several reasons, the most flame-able one being bc my DH is at work and wouldn't see her first food. He's been such an ass latey and hasn't helped at all at night during the 4 mo wakeful and last night he threw out an entre bottle of freshly pumped milk. He's been excited about her starting solids but, IMO, you don't get to experience only the good; he has to put in the time at night, too. I wish I had the balls to give it to w/o him here but I won't

  I've had outfit destroying poopsplosions from DS1 in the past. It was usually a 3am ordeal where scissors were an easier option than poop in the nostrils- but I totally commiserate.
  My confession: I have to be somewhere downtown today and will be stopping at a cookie-shop on the way. I have every intention to buy and eat all the cookies and will not be telling anyone IRL about my side excursion.

  I am positive myself or DH would do the same.. this board has saved me from doing it though as some angel gave us the tip that a lot of onesies are made with the overlapping necks so you can take them down over their bottom instead of over their head... potentially the best advice I've retained.

  I had to cut K out of a onesie a few months ago. It was just so much poop that it would have gotten all up in her hair. It was sad... That was her first time wearing it and it was cute.

  Sometimes I don't clean up after the dog when I walk him. We have a bag holder on the leash, but sometimes one of us forgets to replace the bag. I could just go back inside, grab a bag and clean it up....but I don't.
  
  And here's one to make me sound like a brat-I'm annoyed with my Christmas gift from my in laws. MIL asked for a list, I gave her one, and we got a gift card for a chain restaraunt instead of individual gifts. Why ask for a list when you're just going to buy whatever gift card you can grab at the checkout counter at the grocery store?

  This is selfish, but I'm hoping LO's gastro tells me it's okay to cut out her 3am feeding. DH and I are exhausted and LO isn't a fan of being woken up. I know she needs more calories, but I would love more sleep. I also want to be given the okay to start solids. I said I would wait til six months, but she's definitely showing an interest.
  
  Not really a confession, but I'm sad we didn't continue the "Ask Me Anything" thread. I thought it was a good way to GTKY.

  DH and I decided long ago that we would not bed share (nothing against it, just not smart for us).  While we were on vacation it ended up being the only way we could get LO to sleep.  So we said for the week we needed to do what we could to survive, but as soon as we got home it was back to the crib for him.  I may have gotten caught by DH this morning with a baby in bed next to me.  Maybe.  

  
  

  (please note: I have NOTHING against bed sharing, this confession is NOT about bed sharing at all, but rather saying you will do one thing and not following through with it.) 

  I used to say the same thing.  It's been a month since DS has been in our bed (previously in the rnp), and I don't foresee it ending any time soon, lol.
