    @babybell22‌ DH and I both have brown eyes so we figured DD would as well but they've been gray for the past month or so with just a twinge of brown. Not sure if they'll turn brown or maybe hazel, but I read it can take up to six months for them to finally settle.

    Alexander is teething :/
    Also...
    My best friend gave birth to a 8.1lb 22in baby boy, at home, last night after 28hrs of labor. They named him "xyz" the fifth. Yep..the FIFTH. Im super happy for her, but jealous at the same time. I would happily trade 8hrs of labor at 29 weeks for 28hrs at 41 weeks. It makes me ragey when I hear things like "you were so lucky to have a short labor" or "he was so small i bet it didnt even hurt to push him out".

    Someone actually said those things??? What assholes.

    And daycare ladies tried to tell me to send half breastmilk and half formula when I brought in a few oz of formula in case he was still hungry (I am not pumping quite enough to meet his need to feed every hour.) And they were bitching bc he wants to eat every hour. His job right now is to eat, sleep and poop. He's close to STTN so if he wants to eat all day, goferit.

    Wow - your daycare sounds horrible - or atleast they do today :)  I don't know what part of Houston you are in, but I love mine! Have you thought about looking for another one?

    I don't know how much of it is me or them! We showed up to pick him up at 5:45 on Friday when there was supposed to be an Open House at 6 (that was cancelled, and we didn't know it was cancelled). The lady had the nerve to be say "He's fussy! Do you know WHY he is fussy? He is the LAST ONE HERE."

    Daycare closes at 6, so WTF lady? Someone has to be last. AND WE THOUGHT IT WAS OPEN HOUSE NIGHT.

    So dd is 11 weeks and she doesn't seem to be reaching for anything or batting at anything, I don't think she has discovered her hands. I know every baby does things at their own pace but at what point do I get concerned?

    @tundrabunny‌ ok thank you, I will do my best to not worry about it. I guess I'm more concerned that I'm not doing something to help her but she does do all of the other things your dd does.

    I hate the new bump app. I am typing, but i can't see the box I'm typing in...I have no idea if what I typed is correct.

    Speaking of which, I just downloaded the iOS 8 thingy and It's driving me nuts. It's also telling me that the bump app does not exist. I've been having to use safari to log on here lately and it sucks ass...

    My DD had deep gray eyes before they settled to a dark brown

    There was a 2-month-old in my state that was severely physically beaten and then died after 3 days on life support. I just can't even wrap my mind around how someone could do that to anyone, let alone a little, helpless baby. It's making me cry at work, just thinking about it. How could someone do that? If it was that bad, why couldn't they just walk away for a while? Or surrender their baby at a safe haven right after they're born? I just don't get it. And I don't know how to help change it. I could donate money to a child abuse prevention organization, but I feel like it would be futile.

    This and stories like these break my heart.

    Those adapters are elusive bitches. I bought a car adapter and it has saved me a few times. I'm sure I looked super awkward sitting in my running car in my driveway but at least I was able to pump.

    My husband just finished a keg of bourbon barrel porter and we are having a glass - it is so eff-ing good. I'm pissed because he's going to save it to compete at DS' s school fundraiser...which means that this is the only glass I'll get to have :(

    Damn that fundraiser!! Lol.
    Sneak another? Ha! I'm horrible.

    left LO with DH for an hour a half last night. It was a disaster. I get a call an hour after she ate with him telling me she is hungry and he can't find any milk. Well it's in the freezer and she isn't hungry she is probably tired. Well needless to stay DH thought he knew better and she proceeded to scream for the next 30 mins as he attempted to feed her (I was on the other side of town buying another car seat base and it took 30 mins to get home)

    I came home swaddled her and had her a sleep in 5 minutes. And she didn't eat until an hour later... DH said never again will he watch her for that long :(

    I guess I will not be able to enjoy any down time until she can talk : :|

    This sounds like my DH from Monday night. Only he didn't say ever again. He just did he thinks DS hates him :( No. He doesn't hate you. He's a baby. You just get anxious when he cries and always think he must be hungry. It sucks to not really have personal time. DH and I talked about me handing DS to him when he's fussy at home but know he's not hungry so he can work on figuring out how to comfort him with me close by so he can learn and I can get some "me" time.

    Maybe you could try that? Help instill some confidence in him and so you'll very time before the talking stage. Hugs! It'll get better the more he does it.

    Umm... stop counting down to my kid's birthday TB. The time is already going too fast.

    TB still thinks I'm pregnant. As if I were clenching tightly to keep him in for just a little while longer. Could you imagine still being pregnant? Omg....just no.
    Me too... I still have to see that asinine "your baby is the size of a jackfruit" every time I open the app.

    Also, is there any possible way to change siggies/avatars!? The real site won't even let me do it on my laptop.

    So we were Team Green with the intentions of having lots of gender neutral things.  All our big ticket items are neutral but I looked in DD's closet the other day and realized that it's one big pink explosion.  How did this happen??  

    I feel like our next one is going to be a boy and then we won't have any clothes for him.
