LO and I both have the cold that's been going around. He feels warm this morning but his thermometer is out of batteries and DH isn't up yet to get more. I'm so worried. He's all smiles though so he can't be too sick.
In a week long fight with DH about so many different things right now. We're both pretty stubborn people, but I always end up caving and saying sorry. This time I refuse. All this is his fault; it has been my first week back to work, so it's been hard on me in the first place. Then fights about the holidays, his parents staying for a week, blah blah blah. It started as one thing and has snowballed into a huge ordeal I could murder him with my bare hands (probably because LO got up every hour and a half last night and I was the one up with him). I really want to stop all this nonsense, but absolutely refuse to crack this time. Our anniversary is Tuesday, so we'll see what happens...
@MrsLeahBentley, having kids is really hard on a marriage. You have less time together and are under a lot more stress. My husband and i definitely fight a lot more. There are some days that I definitely feel insecure in my marriage, where I never felt that way before. It will be ok, we just need to get through the transition to parenthood.

Ain't that the truth. This has been our first time since baby; it's weird, for those first two months, our communication actually opened up, we had our best date night ever. But financial strains sparked it all, and when I went back to work, we didn't have a sitter and I don't think DH was ready to take on being with baby all day while I worked. Idk, it's been a rough week. And he hurt his back really badly and DIDNT TELL ME. Like couldn't go to work, go to the doctor bad (DH refuses to go to the doctor for anything). How are you gonna get mad at me for not magically knowing something you haven't told me?! Blegh. I'm over it. I'll sit here with my wine and bump until he decides he wants to talk to me again. No sense forcing it. Just keep refilling his water and bringing him his meds.

I will say, in my experience, DH stays angry for much longer than I do. So if I were in your shoes, I'd totally be taking my own advice and just waiting until he opens up/has settled down.
So we had a get together w my family today and some family drama ensued. My sister is 22 ...and announced over lunch that she is pregnant w #3. She has been married for 2.5 years to a guy she knew for 2 mo. before getting married and she basically ran off and got married and created lots of family issues over all she said and did. She and I have a newly repaired relationship. Being pregnant at the same time helped give us some common ground. We suspect BIL is very controlling and that she goes along w whatever he says. Anyway...she has a 20 mo old and a 5 mo old and is due again when her baby is 1 yr. BIL basically forced her into announcing today and she got so upset. I know she didn't want another one so soon if at all...but we talked about BC and I thought she would use it this time. Her first two were c-sections and I know she is scared because she shouldn't be having so many so close. She is exhausted and works full time for minimum wage at a daycare...lives in a tiny house, and they have lots of financial struggles. I want to feel sympathetic for her but I also feel she is reaping the results of her choices. The whole thing was so awkward. Ugh.
Remember that time I was on BC pills, but was tired, and had a headache for 3 weeks straight, and had a lighter than normal period for only 3 days, and was nauseous for the past two days, and was having a massive internal (OMG Am I preggo?!?!) panic attack like an 18 year old fearing she got knocked up after prom?

This makes me giddy because I freakishly want to be preggers right meow.
You know that feeling when your husband is laying next to you snoring and it is preventing you from sleeping so all you want to do is put the dog's vag on his face just to get revenge?

Yeah, but then you'd have that image in your head the next time you have to kiss him.

I would avoid kissing him for a couple days just to do it. We are going on night 3 of him snoring and me punching him in the back. I will never understand why he just doesn't get up and sleep on the couch.

That's where you made your mistake. You have to punch him in the balls, not the back.
Well, I just caught up on this thread (finally). Have you ever watched several hours of Beavis and Butthead... like sitting in one spot for an extended amount of time with no break? Well, that's exactly how my brain feels right now.

Awesome. Now who's gonna teach me?

Oh you meant pee on a pregnancy test. Hell no. My plan is to wait 9 months and if nothing falls out of my vagina, I'm gonna consider it a negative.
Uh what? I don't keep up with events so I have not heard of this. Makes my skin crawl to think about it.
