I think spitting just makes it hang out in your mouth longer. Swallowing is quick and then you're done with it.

How? I spit immediately. I shut off the back of my throat so none gets back there.

Lol. I drop my tongue down and it ends up in the way back of my mouth and barely any on my tongue. Little tiny swallow and it disappears.

Related - I was at a work event and my coworkers were talking about eating something which was the consistency of caviar. I said, oh I don't eat caviar because it reminds me of... and then paused for a really long time while I thought of an answer that wasn't semen. 

What? This looks like semen to you?!

No rootbeerfloat it TASTES like semen. gag

I hate feeding my kid. It is one of my least favorite parent duties. Now that my husband works a ton of nights I do dinner alone every night, which now means I make something for her and Oreos for me.

I with you on this. DD is only 1 and the 3 meals a day plus snacks is killing me. I'm a picky eater so trying to make her a variety of things from meal to meal is tough. I guess this is one of my "duties" so meal planning and prep is on me all the time and I do not look forward to pack her lunch for daycare every single day. I kinda hate myself for complaining about making bottles back in the day. SO DUMB.

Oh! Salty, right? I think I've only tried caviar once.

I reserve the C word for people truly deserving of it, and my SIL has joined the ranks. I feel so badly for my brother and though he has always been my BFF, I need to figure out how to tell him that she is not welcome in my home therefore they shouldn't plan their trip here in June.

[rugbywife]

I can't even with PP bleeding. I hate pads. I hate feeling 'icky'. I desperately want to put a tampon in.

deets. we like family drama around here.

I used to be Team Swallow when we first started dating. I think I was trying to impress him. And then one time, it really grossed me out. Like, a lot. I guess I actually thought about what I was doing and vowed to never do it again. So now, bj's are just foreplay.

[londoncalling]

And lol at @this. Just because i have a methodology doesn't mean it's actually happening.

Prayer was our birth control method of choice this past week.

Congrats!!

(this is how we ended up with both kids. I do not suggest this as a frequent method of BC)

Nor will it be!(We took the risk and will be fine with any consequences, but won't be reprising this decision.)

I let DS ride with my dad in the backhoe and dump truck this weekend. They drove around the neighborhood going approximately 10 mph. They both had a blast, but I was afraid to post pictures for fear of people judging it/reporting me.

[dancingirl21]

So I guess the act of a BJ and swallowing doesn't totally gross me out (although it only happens once per year or so) but reading about it here is making me totally gaggy.

I just discovered, like five minutes ago, that I've worn out the cord on my bullet and I have to push it in to make it work.

This is a confession because I'm technically working right now (I work from home and took a break).

Annnnnnd my DH just got home. I'm glad he didn't get home earlier, to catch me in the middle of my own afternoon delight. 

AWkward. 

... when i read your first post i was thinking, "why is she making baby food in the middle of the afternoon? doesn't she have a child well beyond the age of pureed foods?"

[niq]

Broken record department: I really need to figure out a polite way to tell my mother "no" when she is trying to be helpful in ways that just slow things down.

Brought to you by this morning's "how about I serve V peanut butter on a banana before you take him to daycare, despite the fact you're already an hour late starting the day". And I didn't even think about the allergy situation.

What do you spit into? Your hand? Do you keep a cup at the bedside to spit into? If I'm going to spit I have to walk into the bathroom. Much quicker to swallow.

lol no.. the OTHER magic bullet. the only one i care about when the cord goes bad. 

[motzie]

My baby eats entirely too many puffs and teething crackers. It's mostly for containment, and she just goes to town while I'm rushing to make actual food, or coffee, or whatever.

[dancingirl21]

It drives me nuts when people come into these threads and say, "I had a really good one the other day but I can't think of it now." Cool story?

*No one has done this today. It's just a pet peeve of mine.

[namasteak]

I told DH if he takes a project (1wk on 1 wk off) in Alaska we will be taking a vacation there on one of his off weeks and I would be hiring a mothers helper a few hours/day on weeks he was gone.

Eta - neither of which are really in our budget.

[MadamePresident]

I am not nearly as careful about my baby watching tv as I was with my toddler. Poor second child.

[Deleted]

If my H would get on board with it, I think I would be legitimately happy living in a hippie commune.

[Deleted]

I cannot even read all of this thread- I was gagging by the second page. So if you have a juicy confession, please save it for another day or let me know where to start reading again. TIA!

I don't get giving a bj and having the guy finish elsewhere. If you have put in all that effort why ruin it at the end? I wouldn't be pleased if my husband went down on me and then stopped and starting using his hand at the last second. I do usually spit though because I have major texture issues but it doesn't affect him so he I doubt he cares.

It's been a long day. Please narrow it done.

Sorry it's been a long day

Start on page 4 "I hate the people that abuse family for daycare", and read until you get bored.

The TL;DR version is that some of MMM (including me) think there are some entitled brats out there who expect their parents to be full time DCPs for free, even if it's at great physical or financial cost to them. But most of us don't actually know anybody in this situation. There is someone who's SIL is treating MIL that way, that's the best I can find in the thread.

She said it's going well and she expects to be done using diapers as "back ups" by nine months.

I worked with a guy who did this. He said "it's great! We were done with diapers by the time he was a year!" He later said they had to walk around with a bowl for the baby to pee and poop in.

Okay, now I'm gagging. 

I can swallow after 2.5 BJs a day, but carrying a bowl of excrement around your house? No, thank you.

[atarianna]

My husband is OOT tonight and I am caught somewhere between "oh yay, I get to drink" and "oh crap, I have to drink".
