  • This is a long shot, but does anyone happen to have a Graco Lauren crib? We lost the hardware when we moved and can't find the right size barrel nut.  I looked at the manual online and it doesn't say what size the barrel nuts are of course.  The manufacturer they used is out of business and the new one won't send replacement hardware for the cribs they didn't manufacture for safety reasons.  We ordered a universal crib kit, but the barrel nuts were too small.  I'm just trying to figure out what size they are!
  • I went shopping today with my parents for maternity clothes. I don’t know why but maternity clothes are just so hard and depressing to buy. I don’t feel that excited by most of the options and it just reminds me how much larger I feel. I wish it could be more positive of an experience and that I didn’t let myself feel so self-conscious about getting bigger. 
  • @chrssyms I completely understand how you feel. I went maternity shopping two weeks ago and it was really stressful and made me feel insecure. I don’t enjoy clothes shopping anyway, but trying to fit my changing body is even harder. 

    My current dilemma: we are replacing the non-functional 1980s dishwasher in our house. Should I go with the workhorse Bosch or get the fancy double-drawer Fisher and Paykel? We got kitchen money as a Christmas gift so the price isn’t an issue. Do any STM think having a second drawer that could be just baby gear would be helpful? I know I’m overthinking it, but I’m totally overwhelmed.

    @TJtheGoat Fisher & Paykel! I upgraded to one a year ago and it has been amazing! It is so quiet, efficient, solidly built and because the two drawers run independently, you can run one and fill the other -- never any dishes on the countertop waiting to go in. You can also customize the layout in each of them for your needs. The only new thing is that it takes only powder or tablet detergent, but I was able to find a great eco-friendly powder one that I like. 

    Fwiw, I had a Bosch for the first 6 months of last year in a rental and I hated it. It beeped incessantly at the end of each cycle until you opened the door. There was no way to turn it off. I'm not sure if it's the same on all models but that was enough to turn me off the brand. 
  • So DS was laying on my stomach listening for the baby. He sits up and says "I hear something!" Me: yea? Think it was the baby? DS: no poop. Me: did you just say poop? DS: yep! M: that is probably legit.
  • I'm really bummed because I can't play NHIE because I can't love-tit. Even on my laptop, it's giving me the javascript error. Boooo
  •  Yesterday we stopped to visit friends on the way home and they have a 2.5 year old girl. She came up to me with something in her hand saying "I'm gonna make a poopy!"

    Apparently her dad taught her that her play dough ponies get poop shoved in their butts to push out and make hair. Some men seriously never grow up. 
  • @mamanbebe I had the Bosch in my old condo and it does beep like crazy. Thanks for weighing in!
  • @meatballs37 Couldn't believe it when I saw her post AGAIN today. I'm sorry that she keeps doing that to you.
  • @meatballs37 holllllly shiiiiit. I’m floored 
  • We need Emerald here to #admin her ass
  • @meatballs37 I’m sorry she’s being so flagrantly disrespectful of the rules and your kind request to not do that. Some people.  
  • @meatballs37 I'm very sorry you have to deal with that. I swear some people are deliberately pulling this crap to start some shit (Sorry about the potty language lol)

  • Not much more to say than feeling for you @meatballs37
  • I wasn't going to say anything, but I've had a rough day and once she tagged me and brought me back in, it was all over. Ugh. Why do people think this shit is ok?

  • Is it a full moon these days or something? What is UP this past week? Good lord.
  • She sucks. Sorry @meatballs37
  • I think it's funny that your GTFO comment wasn't removed @meatballs37.  Bump admins probably agreed with you  :D

    Im so sorry you have to deal with her behavior @meatballs37. I can’t stand when someone comes in and shows such disrespect for our community.

  • I have no idea why this lady came back after getting told the correct way to post last time. Why do some people make it so difficult?
