    I hate it when I'm super virtuous at the grocery store and then I really wish I had just bought some freaking ice cream.

    Duh, this is when you send your husband out for some. In fact,every night is when you send your husband out for some. Confessions of a fat kid.

    BTW my confession I chose not to post which still posted is that J is a much better parent than me.

  • My confession for the week....I thought I had "too many" covers after BF since I am now up to 12, not counting my partially delaminated emergency one. After yesterday I will not think a dozen covers is too many.....10 were in the wash courtesy of some runnier than normal poop Tuesday and Wednesday after washing diapers Tuesday morning.
    Please go see my post in the fluff flaunting thread. I don't even use covers as my main diapering style.

    So, you can pack up your BB shells and send them my way if you're worried someone will think you have too many covers. :D. Having too many covers is a worry I don't mind having.

    No he isn't. I feel that way a lot too, but it isn't true.

    Sometimes I feel the same way about DH. But then I wonder if he would be so patient or attentive if he was with the boys all day long.

    I have somewhere over 20 at this point. And I ordered Grovia Drift that should get here soon. But I pretty much justify everything by saying I have 2 in cloth.

    My 1 year old has been awake for over 12 hours and still refuses to even lie down. I had to leave the room cuz I was ready to literally lie on top of her.




    FFFC I have actually held my child down to get him to stop long enough to sleep.

    I remember my mom having to completely immobilize my sister until she was 6 or so to actually make her sleep.  My sister is already having to do it with her son.

    My mom did this to my sister as well. And I did this with E. I had to take her in her room. Wrestle her it to a cuddle position until she fell asleep.

  • I am so pissed at DH lately (for being completely useless around the house and with DD) that I've taken to treating him like a child. I've kept a list of everything I've done and things he's done, and some other pretty petty things. But I don't know what else to do and he just doesn't get it.

    @missmimsyy‌ @JNU76‌ This is the recipe I use, but I make some tweaks. I only put in 3 tbsp of Brewers yeast because otherwise they are really really dense. I had experimented with making my own brownie mix, but now I'm too lazy.

    Thank you!!! I love that I can use boxed mix.

    I've kept a similar list in my head about how MH makes more messes than he ever cleans, but then I feel guilty and remember "love keeps no record of wrongs". I tried early in our marriage to go on a cleaning strike which just made me more frustrated. Wish I had practical advice for you...sending a BTDT creepy internet hug.

    Does he need a chore list or schedule? I just give my husband tasks. Like asking him to move laundry, clean the bathroom, or pick up groceries.

    Some people need to be asked. My husband is just clueless about when things need to be done in the house.

    He also helps if I tell him what I need to get done at night.

    This is MH, too. He will do almost anything I ask without much complaint, but if I don't ask, he is oblivious to whatever needs doing. I do keep a honey-do list for the odd jobs that I need him to do when he has time, and he does a few on the weekends.

    I also had to take off my perfectionist hat. He loads the dishwasher in a way that is utterly and completely stupid and wrong, but it finally hit me: he loads the dishwasher!!! So I bite my tongue and try not to look when I add a dish to his nonsensical compilation.
    Oh my. Thank you for this! I'm currently mad at my husband for everything and nothing all at once... and the dishwasher thing is us exactly. I needed the reminder to give the man a break!
  • Hugs MK. I'm sorry.

    S came in and gave me a disapproving look so I had to go back out there :(

    S will understand if she ever becomes a mother. Sometimes you need to take that break and not lose it. Hugs.

    It's not even my patience. He woke up the first day at like 5 and didn't nap all day. So he cried about everything. Then he woke up at 5 something again, and again wouldn't nap. And cried all day. Then he was up half the night and got up at 6ish. Took a half hour nap.

    So basically he's exhausted but won't sleep. He's crying so hard he's choking and looks like he's going to fall out. All. Day. Long. The only thing that makes him happy is digging through the kitchen garbage, but that's obv not happening.

    Listening to someone cry that hard for that long is like some form of torture. My spirit is broken.
    :(

  • Oh, @Chickypoo2468‌, I remember N going through a stage like that. I felt like my brain had been shattered into a thousand pieces. Big, big hugs!

  • Aww MK! You're an awesome momma. Just hang in there!
  • See that's the thing though. When he does stuff I always thank him and tell him I appreciate the help. I've told him 736383959572 times that I don't care if he does it different than me as long as he does it. I have some very ocd tendencies and I don't expect others to be the same. I really don't think I'm being unreasonable.


  • Hugs chickypoo. I wish I had a way to help you out.


  • Also, yesterday for fun I was playing the 'Why why why why why' game with A after she played it with me. She had much less patience than I do and shut me down at why #3 with my line of 'That's just the way it is.'

    A sounds like a dangerously smart little cookie :)
