Re: The Randomest Thread
You're welcome.
Thanks!
Me: 28 DH: 27
This was us last night. She usually goes down around 7:30 and stays down til about midnight, but she even woke up screaming an hour later. So even when I thought it was over...it wasn't.
We just had lamb chops, curried home fries, and roasted brussel sprouts for dinner. I cooked the vegetables and MH cooked the meat. I had my supper with a glass of French wine, and there is dark chocolate with maple caramel for dessert. LO is sleeping, and I bought a new cook book today.
ETA:
Andplusalso MH misses LO from being away all day and asked with puppy eyes if I wanted him to change/swaddle/put down LO.
DO I?????
Life. Is. Bliss.
For the last time, I don't want your wraps. You're not actually losing weight, it's just water weight. No magical wraps "melt the fat away" in minutes. Also, if you're selling these magic wraps, why haven't YOU dropped like 40 lbs?

Ugh we go through this every night. He usually falls asleep at 8 and stays asleep until about 2. Now if only I could go to bed that early!
I do like the target brand. I use the "similar to enfamil" one and have switched between name brand and target brand. No issues. Half as expensive.
I want to say "if I just give you $50 in cash, will you leave me alone forever?" Seriously, it's not my job to add to your bank account, but hell, I will take a one time hit to avoid the begging and guilt.
It was so crazy to think about that I rolled over and told DH. He patted me on the head and told me to go back to sleep, haha.
And @karacakes98 I'm a hobby cake decorator (I've taken classes for years) and seeing your cakes would NOT annoy me. That's an actual service people want!
I'm at the ER again with mastitis. I had to bring P because DH has work at 3:30 AM. I just started work this week and know the fact that they won't give me a pump break during instruction time is why I have it since I go 5.5 hours in between pumps and I'm most engorged in the morning. I am leaving at the end of the year anyway and I am really tempted to just leave now.
@CruiseGirl28 tornados hit in the next town over and downtown fayetteville was flooded in about 2 ft of water in some parts.
I have serious anxiety and I am starting to get depressed. Once I get home I don't even get to cuddle my baby because I have a million things to prep for the next day and then it's bedtime. I don't get paid a whole lot and MH said if it's bothering me that much to just leave. I'm just worried about all of my supplies $1000s of dollars since NC didn't give me anything for the classroom. I also feel bad for my students but leaving my tiny baby is so hard.
I'm also at the point where I want to give up BF because I've seen LCs galore and still end up with cracked nipples and mastitis (x3). This makes me feel like a failure. Especially after that add on the target formula but I know I need to make the right choice for baby and me.
Sorry for the novel. I'm just so conflicted and feeling pretty down on myself.
So my husband has been taking courses to become Certified to SCUBA dive we had to go to Houston this yesterday and today for him to do his dives. Well we went to this store that sells dive equipment and while there mia became restless and ready for a nap.
So while i am walking around bouncing her this guy comes in. He's probably in his late fifties/early sixties. He procedes to ask me the typical questions, how old is she, whats her name, etc. all met and answered with a smile.
Then he asks "are you nursing" i kid you not.
Because he says, that his wife was able to nurse all three of his kids and it was amazing he said.
He also says that he thinks that women are at their most attractive when they are with child, and that is why they had three children within 36 months!
Needless to say i ran to my car to change Mia as fast as possible.
Yeah--major creeper!
@amdecker1016 that is totally creep status. I'm weirded out by some woman staring at me pumping with a cover at the hospital. Seriously? Can I help you with something?
I have a friend doing Visalus who is constantly trying to get people to "start the journey." No thanks. I've always found a journey more fun if I get to eat what I want...like cookies and lots of rum.
@AshleyO925 I am so sorry to hear that you're feeling down! It sounds like BF is taking quite a toll on you physically and emotionally. You've been so strong already (mastitis 3x?!) in sticking with it for miss Piper. When I switched to FF I just told myself it was the next step in feeding my baby girl the best way possible for both of us (imagine it being the same change in diet like starting rice cereal or solids. That made it easier for me even if I made up the fact it's part of the progression of an infants diet). I also think you should become a SAHM. While financially it stinks knowing you paid so much out of pocket for supplies, ditching the depression and anxiety to be with your baby will be priceless. Good luck and lots of hugs to you. I hope you feel better soon!
@Suhey1983 you admitting this makes me feel better. I've never once regretted having my child, but I miss being able to be selfish and do what I want. I miss feeling young and attractive, being able to do whatever I want and not having to worry about anyone else. Hugs to you as well mama ❤️
@amdecker1016 you're just too much of a MILF for that old creep to handle
What deity do I pray to to ensure this happens every night? I'm seriously hoping this isn't just from the tylenol and his shots.
My waitress the other day asked me if I'm nursing. I'm pumping, so I just said, "Sort of." Then she kept asking me if I wanted another beer even after I said no.
