My first PP AF started today. My SO was sad, because he was (secretly) hoping I was pregnant. My confession: while he was talking about his sadness, I was internally having a party. Being pregnant is not something I'm interested in right now! Good job body!!!!
I am not liking weaning from breast feeding. Besides the emotional toll it's taken on me, AF came a week early and way more intense, and getting a bottle ready and feeding with a bottle is much more work, I'd ather just whip out a boob
I've always wanted two kids, but am considering being one and done now. The one I have is pretty great, and I go back and forth between thinking he's so great I could be satisfied with just him and thinking he's so great I need another. I know, it's a lame confession, but it's all I've got.
I am blown away by how many people these days are unable to write in complete sentences, using proper grammar and punctuation. I don't notice it much with this group anymore, but I'm on a Mommy2Mommy group on Facebook and it seriously boggles my mind sometimes when I see posts. This week there was a mom that posted that she was looking for part time work, but her post was literally just one long run-on sentence, like it was written in train of thought. And I thought, it doesn't matter how intelligent you might be, that makes you look like an idiot.
1) every year Im against planning anything big on Valentines Day, but I always hope MH will surprise me with something fantastic. It'll never happen because he doesn't know that's what I want, but one can dream.
2) I put LO in her new jumparoo in her nursery so I could watch an episode of firefly in peace this morning. That screeching is really starting to pierce my brain!!
I have MAJOR senoiritis at my job. I am counting down the days until I leave. I usually try not to bump unles I am pumping, but I see a LOT of gifing coming from me in the next 4 weeks.

Oh girl, me too. Only my senoritis has to go until the late summer/early fall.
Sometimes I buy total junk food, like Swiss Cake rolls, and hide them on top of the kitchen cabinets. I tell myself that it's so I forget about the and not have two a day... but it's also to hide them from DH and DD1.
I'm skipping Piper's swimming lessons this morning because it's snowing, I want to watch the Olympics and I don't feel like putting in the effort of getting her ready. LazyMom.com.
My FFFC - I haven't lost a single pound besides the 7lbs 14oz and water weight that left my body when M was born! I am so jealous of those of you who are below your pre-baby weight. I tried cutting calories and my milk supply dipped. I am eating like I did when pregnant to keep up as best as I can. So for now...
DS and I are supposed to go to a first time mommies play group this afternoon (our first for this group). I've got all the valentines addressed, little bubble wands for all the kids (some are toddlers), and his outfit all picked out but I'm seriously considering skipping. I get social anxiety in new situations, it's snowy and yuck outside, and I desperately need to clean the house.
I'm seriously debating asking DH to sleep in the guest room. LO and I sleep better when he's working late/watching tv. He snores so loud and rolls around so much. I feel super guilty that I'd rather share my bedroom with my baby and dog than my husband :-/
I forgot my wedding anniversary. Obviously, so did DH. It was the 1st of this month. I realized on the 12th and told him. We both laughed it off.
I was also secretly hoping we would both "forget" Valentine's Day. However, DH did not so I will be picking something up for him on the way home from work.
DH sent flowers to my work. However I'm home with a sick little Cupid today. No biggie, I'll get the flowers next week. But, if it were a box of chocolate, I'd be going to pick it up.
"The cleaning, the scrubbing will wait til tomorrow,
For children grow up, as I've learned to my sorrow.
My FFFC- one of our VP's boyfriends rented an electronic billboard and had it drive around our building and park. The message says something about it being their FIRST Valentines Day, and how much he loves her. Everyone is talking about how cute it is, I don't agree. It screams crazy stalker serial killer if they were to break up.
@PB102012 ITA. This is probably a UO but I hate outrageous, public stunts like that. I don't even like public proposals, because the woman is basically forced to say yes. Otherwise, she'd look like a bitch for turning it down.
I always think when people do things like that, it's really more about them than their SOs. I'm pretty cynical though.
Confession #2: I'm afraid of the dark. If I go to sleep before my SO gets home from school or work, I sleep with our bedroom light on. I fear I will open my eyes, and a dark shadowy figure will be standing over me. I'd rather open my eyes and know who I'm looking at.

I'm thinking this is related to your constant perusal of scary gifs

I've considered GBCBing a couple times due to the scary gifs. (Not literally posting a GBCB - but just not coming to A13 as often). I used to love scary movies & creepy things. About 3 years ago I went through a lot of anxiety and scary things literally gave me panic attacks in the middle of the night. If i watched anything creepy I would wake up with nightmares about people breaking into my house. I am a huge chicken shit apparently.

I used to LOVE horror films, then I got pregnant. I don't know what happened, but apparently having kids takes away your balls.
I rarely make it through the first page of FFFC. Maybe if there was a seperate "guess what I ate" thread then FFFC might be reduced to actual confessions.

@LJUTCMommy I agree.... I understand wanting to profess your love, etc but it's not for me. My DH proposed to me in a surprise engagement photo shoot that he told me was winter photos. The only person that witnessed it was our photographer. It was perfect because it was intimate but at the same time captured.

No, it's been like this for years. I absolutely love scary movies, but I wake up during the night paranoid. LOL, it is like I keep punishing myself.

Eta:@BlondieBia will you be my Valentine?
Since DH didn't get me anything (all I want is chocolate) I am keeping the box I bought for him to eat myself.

He needs a swift kick in the you know what... You're pregnant!! The least he could do is buy you candy!!
