  • Carm, I didn't really care either until I had a friend come out as transgendered. He had posted an article, that I cannot find on his timeline, about the importance of distinguishing sex and gender.
    I am surrounded by people who don't identify as male or female for gender. We've had the discussion multiple times, and at least the people in my life, know that when it comes to baby parties, it isn't used as an intentional ignorance of the difference so much as a word that looks better on a party invitation.

  • I judge people based off their siggy pictures when it comes to challenges. This month's will make it hard for our board. 
    I just updated my sig and clicked on this thread- I see you beat me to this picture.  I just put mine on a minute ago, so I'll change it.

  • I work in a town an hour away from my house, we have 1 and only 1 road/ highway to get from point A to point B. I sit in a turn lane every morning waiting my turn to merge into the madness that is this road. For this reason, I am that asshole that does not stop on the highway to let other people out... I wait, you wait.
  • @AnyMax, why do you hate me lately?!?

    I only take the time to pick on those that I luuurve :x :*


                                                         
  • I seriously take tylenol atleast 3 times a week and sometimes twice a day. I get headaches constantly and I'm afraid said headache will turn into a vicious migraine. Idk if it's ok but I'm going to ask the Doc on Wednesday. When I have a headache/migraine I cant function.

    i'm pretty sure everyone does it at one time or another. My husbands niece, she's not cute in any way. She just turned 5 and she looks so sickly. Idk what it is. My SIL takes her to the doc and i'm sure if something was wrong with her we'd know. Sad thing is, it's not just me who thinks that way of her. My mom, my sister, my bff ...

    Oh ugly babies totally exist! I've seen them. Bless their hearts they grew into beautiful humans, but when they were infants - WOOF.  :-&  The worst is what ti say to the parents, because usually, most people will saying something like, "Oh whatta cutie!" With those you kind of have to be like, "Oh, that's nice."

     

     

     

  • I totally tattled to my MIL about her son (BIL) being a selfish baby. (See Wednesday's rant LOL) In my defense, she would have gotten the jist from the fact that HE called her to babysit my child, but I threw him under the bus further like a whiny kid. And if she brings it up, I'm happy to expound further on Saturday about why I'm annoyed and why he's a brat. I know I should let it go and I don't care.
  • This is horrible, and isn't about everyone obviously, and I'm going to hell, but: it makes me angry when certain people in my life have it easy getting pregnant. I feel like they don't appreciate their kids or what a gift it is to be able to have kids.

  • Not too juicy (and I doubt I'm the only one in this boat), but I don't feel any connection whatsoever to the little babe yet.  Probably because I haven't heard a heartbeat or had an ultrasound. I'm excited, and being a good little pregnant lady. But no real connection. 

    it's alright, i've heard the HB and I've seen the baby, still no connection. this is my second ...

    I don't like sex. Crazy I know! DH knows this and he knew long before we were married. I try to get into it but in reality I just don't like it :/
    I have talked about this before, but DH and I are sex camels. Neither one of us is a horn ball. We just had sex for the first time since the conception the other morning (I had a good dream). I feel like my friends might judge our relationship for it, but we are blissfully happy. We laughed for a good 15 minutes last night because MH called our cat a "schmekel".

  • My closest friend has been driving me nuts lately.  She's due in June and all she can talk about is 1) how pissed she is about everything under the sun, 2) how much her stepson annoys her lately (she used to be nuts about him), and 3) how cute her dog is.  Notice the actual baby isn't on that list?  I'm cohosting her baby shower with her sis, and planning her baby shower at work (we work together) and at this point am annoyed about all of it.  I mean seriously, we had lunch together yesterday, and the entire time all she could talk about was how pissed she was about this and that and the other, and how her DSS is being a pain in the ass.  It's stressful.

    I feel like I need a break from her but I can't really do that.  And then I feel bad bcs I don't want to cause friend friction while she's pregnant.

    DH is a camel, I'm not. It's not usually a problem, but since the bfp we have both gotten more extreme. I want everyday, and he has me on a. Madonna pedestal.

    I don't care for it much either. DH and I have only had sex once in about 5 weeks. I know it sounds terrible, but for the first few weeks he thought "something might go wrong" (Oh men.. lol) so I certainly didn't push the issue. And now, I just don't have the energy or the drive. He'll get over it :)

  • So I haven't puked much at all this pg. Like 3x total. 2 of them have been this week. I puked this am before the movers got here... is it bad that I'm going to try and milk it with hubby so I don't have to do much cleaning today??? To my defense my stomach is not happy with me.

  • Here's another one. I judge people based off their registry. This goes for wedding and baby. You don't need to choose 18 different cute bibs for your child. You also don't need four of the same jumperoo "one for each floor plus I for your mom's house.

    Me too, especially when people register for outrageously expensive things. My cousin and his now-wife were unemployed and living with my aunt and uncle at the time of their wedding. They each had a kid from a previous relationship, and she was pregnant. They registered for a $700 vacuum. Really? REALLY? You don't even have your own house to vacuum!

    I understand where you're coming from, but I'm mostly on during the week (because who wants to actually work at work)? And I'll be on mobile all next week while traveling, so I wanted to get it out of the way. And my old siggy was annoying me. :) My related FFFC - Gifs in siggys annoy me. Save the gifs for comments in threads. I don't need to see a million cats jumping off things and missing over and over and over. Let's see a quick picture and move on.

    You don't have to have a hard time getting pregnant to appreciate pregnancy or your children. That's absurd. If you feel certain people don't appreciate their children, that's one thing, but to equate that with how they got pregnant? Wow.

    I did say it's not about everyone. Among people I know, the ones who have had issues or struggles with having kids have been more vocal about how appreciative they are to have their child or children.

    I don't really like sex either. I'm the only one that can make myself orgasm, so most of the time I don't even bother because it's kind of annoying and I'm not really that into it anyway. Sex is way better for me now that I've had a baby (it used to be pretty uncomfortable before), and I definitely have a higher libido being off BCP. But I could still take it or leave it 95% of the time.

    I honestly think DH would like some action a lot more than what he gets, but he doesn't bring it up very often. And now I feel bad. I might have to ask him about this later.

    I know you said it's not about everyone. But still - equating how hard or easy of a time someone had getting pregnant with whether or not they appreciate their children just throws me off. People can appreciate their children without being overly vocal about it. Your statement, whether about certain people your know or in general, was full of judgment. Even though you said it's not about everyone, you made a blanket statement. Just because DH and I got pregnant the second month trying doesn't mean that we don't appreciate DS or this new baby as well. Struggle does not equal more deserving.

    I didn't say anybody was more or less deserving of children. My confession was that certain people having it easy pisses me off. These certain people have shown that they see their kids as either burdens, obstacles to fun, or accessories. It pisses me off, you don't have to like that.

  • @mytinc I'm really sincerely happy it only took two cycles for you to conceive. I wouldn't wish issues on anybody. @mrssparklebottom thanks for the clarification. Let me make this clear - I would not want for anybody who wants kids to struggle to have them. Not even people who piss me off.

    THis is such a sensitive topic that I honestly try not to talk about our TTC journey at all (no issues either time, pregnant quickly and easily, easy pregnancy).  I think if I sat there talking about how grateful I was that it was easy for me, that would just come across as gloating to people who haven't had an easy time.  I don't feel like I'm obligated to tell anybody how i feel about anything relating to my body, reproductive journey, pregnancies, etc. How I feel is how I feel.  If i"m a dick, people will know it, and since, you know, I'm NOT, I would hope they'd know that too.

    just becuase someone got pregnant easy, doesn't mean they didn't have other issues during thier pregnancy. Or 'scares'. And they don't need those scares or a hard time concieving to appreciate their children. I know I was SOOOO greatful to see baby alive and kicking at my 1st (and 2nd due to my sch) u/s. But it only took us one cycle to get pregnnat. Granted, we charted to avoid, so I was very familiar with my cycles and know exactly when I ovulated. I'm sure that increased our odds b/c I have an 'irregular' cycle.
