I feel like such a b**** for this but I just can't get on board with thinking that video by the person I formerly thought was an imposter is cute. If ANYONE ELSE had posted it I would think it was the sweetest thing in the world. Like yes you proved you actually have a baby but I still don't like you. Especially after someone posted they saw this video advertised on their FB feed and it's got almost 8k likes.

Irrational misdirected annoyance... Check!

I'm absolutely on the same page. Don't like him, don't trust his motives, not going to get suckered into feeding that beast.
@Serenamarr I can't either because he is a fame whore. He's the Kim kardashian of this board. And he wants blog hits..... Also my boss has shown me a video very similar so I'm just not that into it.
@Serenamarr I was thinking the same thing!! If this person is gonna attention whore it up, where was their birth announcement? Not that that couldn't be easily fabricated on here but it would make that poster seem slightly more legit. Like you said, if any other person posted that video I would have cried but it seems like some fake ass nonsense. Not into it at all.
I just locked myself in the bedroom to feed the baby.
And...
I finished feeding him like 15 minutes ago and now he's sleeping.
I'm staying in this room for however long I can. I wanted to take a break so I found an opportunity and seized it! I'm taking this moment to read some threads, shop online and have some quiet time. I may even look at some houses I can't afford yet on Trulia. Man, this is the life right now!
How sad am I? Lol.
@JessHeppell I want all the brownies. I vote peanut butter. I could have chocolate and peanut butter all day!
I FULLY jumped into this thread to say I haven't looked at the 90 second video thread and to ask if I should go look cause I've seen people have been commenting on it. Was wondering if I was missing anything good over there.
And @JunB25 welcome to the board! Looks like you've been looking around and know the lay of land! Huzzah! :-bd
I cried on the way home from spending a day out with DH because I felt guilty that we didn't spend enough time with our dog today. I had a contraction on the way home and started getting worried we would have to leave the dog today. I get so sad when I think of her sitting in her crate just waiting for us to get home, and then we not come home for a couple days. I seriously start crying whenever I think about it. My parents agreed to watch her while we're in the hospital, but I called them and made them promise they would take her to their house so she could spend the day outside her crate and with people for sure.

He makes me so annoyed!! I stay far away from his posts... and I also like @mollyanne01's stabby response. So perfect!
I'll admit that I totally got suckered by the 90 second video. I honestly didn't even look who posted on it until later in the day. I also watched it at 5 am after suffering from insomnia. I blame hormones and sleep deprivation. Lol

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS! I felt like such a B for not clicking. That guy's posts are annoying and I will NOT be click-baited!!! Grrrrrrrrrrr.
In the meantime, who wants to view MY YouTube videos and blog? *eyeroll*
I cured my stabbiness by internet shopping for workout clothes...... And now I'm just laughing because we all know that's going to be awhile ..........
Thanks... been looking around. Can't sleep since my husband and daughter went to a baseball game tonight and are just now heading home...
Hmmm interesting about the 90 second video... I thought it was so cute but I can see how some might be suspect that it's not from a legitimate user? Did I get that right? Too cute to be true I guess.
I've been hitting reply to certain comments but not sure if they link up or if I have to @ tag people... also I don't get notification if someone reply to me I just happen to be reading through comments and see my username. So if I accidentally miss something I'm not trying to ignore and be rude. Eta: fix typos

Yes! Zulily has a bang up sale on under armour clothes!!!!!! @JunB25
I want to dress my kid in Under Armour, just because it's what DH wears outside of work. I'm holding off on that shopping spree until I get really stabby. :-)
@klkonwi Nice! I did see their sale today for kids, didn't even look for women's. I won't fool myself and buy workout stuff though cause I'll just be at home wearing my worn out yoga pants telling myself that squatting down to play with my daughter is work out enough

Actually, based on your posts on here, I feel like a blog/youtube videos from you would be hilarious, so if you ever do give either a try, please do let us know because I actually would want to see haha
Yes! Zulily has a bang up sale on under armour clothes!!!!!! @JunB25
DH's brother (who will also be O's godfather) is currently a manager with UA, so he has been getting her all sorts of stuff! He's going to be quitting his job at the end of the month because he's looking for a more corporate position than retail, but until then I am loving the perks of his current job!
DH and I ordered pizza yesterday night and on the way home I was like if I went into labor right now you'd take the pizza with us wouldn't you? And he goes heck yes! It's getting to the point where at every meal we make a promise to eat our food no matter if my water breaks or if my contractions are only a few minutes apart. This team won't be hungry in L&D like the first time. Hahaha. *My hospital won't let me eat during labor.
I don't know how I would get through work without this board. I spend WAY too much time reading these but I just love all the drama! @JunB25 welcome! It already seems like you'll fit right in.
I had a dream last night that I had to deliver without DH. Now I get a call from my husband this morning after work saying he has strep throat!!!! I swear the man has no immune system whatsoever. Let's hope he's over this crap before baby makes his arrival!!
It's awful, but he gets sick so often I can't even feel bad for him anymore. The first thing I said was, "Well, you're not holding your son!"

Not that it's too cute to be true, but that guy's only posts ever have been links to his blogs and "look at me, look what I made/did, tell me how awesome I am!" Kind of things. For a while I wasn't entirely convinced he was having a baby because he's a graphic designer if I recall correctly and would show the invitations he made or the announcements he designed and to me it felt like he was looking for business, or at least just blog hits. He's like the spam of the community, and while I'm glad he had a healthy baby, I still don't like him lol.
Glad other people agreed I was feeling seriously jaded and bitchy there for a bit.
I was looking around on other boards/websites to see if our favorite father has been spamming them as well. As I was trolling, I came across that someone named their kid Allegra!!!! Who does that?

I believe it or not have met several Allegra's. The stupid medicine ruined it for everyone, but it's a pretty traditional Italian name. Hopefully by the time that girl is grown up the meds will not be popular anymore lol

I've come to the conclusion some people just do not care about their child's future.
I giggled when I saw the new name. When I first saw it I was like..."wait why have I never seen this chick post before, she fits right in with her name." Then I saw your profile pic and put it all together. (This was all before I saw your announcement of course.)
I changed my username.
Edited to remove reason. Internet safety.
BAHAHAHAHA! It's beautiful. I've kind of been MIA lately because I'm kind of over some of the bs posters. The chick who was all gifs are so mean, oh and btw when will i go into labor only confirms my feeling of being over it. Also, my DH finally moved back from Korea and all his stuff arrived this weekend. So now all my nesting has gone to hell and its a shitshow over here. On the bright side, still pregnant and feeling good at 37 weeks.
I'm so glad you ladies are here. My mom friends are all like....get an induction! Drink tea you are giving birth tomorrow and I can be like ok cool...none of you have any idea what you are talking about. I'm not so much over being pregnant as over everyone else's thoughts on my pregnancy.

That makes more sense! At least it's not Viagra!
When hubs and I were thinking of boys names hubs wanted a name that he pulled from a book (actually both our names were pulled from books) that actually looked and sounded really cool. But a Google search on that name revealed there is an opiate medication out there similiar to oxycontin with the exact name hubs wanted. I liked the name and would have used it, but I had to kibosh it once I learned this. Hubs was like 'nobody has ever heard of that drug, it'll be fine' but I had to come back with 'nobody ever heard of oxycontin either until everybody started getting high! I'm not naming my kid the same name as pain medication!'

lol, what was the name?! My favorite girl name is from Nameberry. And our favorite boy middle name was inspired by an embarrassing list of "rock star kids names." Though we altered it, to make it more normal.
Re: changing my username... I got anxious about trolls and noticed it was easy to find info on people using their real names. I did some Google searches on myself and didn't pull up anything obvious but it was *just too close for comfort. And PessimisticUnicorn was taken ;-)
