MMR Randoms

[Deleted]

I had two @ related randoms so here are mine and what are yours?

- I feel like such a prude/judgy person but there's this chick on the Bump who is 28 and her and her 22 year old husband have been TTCing for 14 months. I obviously don't know her but I'm sort of grossed out by the age difference. How old was he when they met? I guess this is my own stereotype of 20 year old males but I can't see one getting married and starting a family on purpose. Flame away!

- I had this awesome sweet potato soup last night and I told DH it reminded me of baby food, which led into my telling DH what baby lead weaning. I thought he would just tune me out because la-la-la babies but he was totally on board. He was like "there haven't always been blenders, this makes so much sense." ;D

I'm so annoyed by everything today.

Can you develop PMS at age 30? I've never really had it before. I'm at the point where I don't want to leave my house today because I'm worried I'll yell at random strangers for no reason.

My pubic bone hurts so much. I feel like it's broken. I can't walk or sit or really do anything without searing pain. It is awful.

My mom got all huffy today because she called, super cheery, for the third day in a row "just to see how I'm feeling" and I responded with "we will let you know when anything happens." Then she called me crabby and asked if I'm in transition. I'm so fucking tired of people asking how I'm feeling and just want to be left alone. I hate everyone except H right now.

[pugz]

omg your mom is ridic as usual. You do need to turn your phone off, let the family know that your DH will call them when there is news to report.

Stop answering the phone and have H update FB a couple times a day so no one thinks you are dead.

[Brie]

Yeah, if she calls tomorrow no response.

Eff this noise, I'm making brownies.

DH got to go to a work dinner last night (I was invited, but couldn't get a babysitter) and today he is supervising some work at our rental property. I really need a break from my kids. Maybe I'll plan a trip for myself for next spring. Like a 14 day cruise. LOL.

Ugh, Brie, that is really annoying about your mom. I hated everyone by the time I delivered as well. I hope your pubic bone is feeling better soon.

My random is that I cannot freaking wait to start feeling more human again. Between the stitches, tailbone pain, sciatica, and hemorrhoids (thanks to 3 hours of pushing) I would kill to just have relief from one. Maybe that way I could sit down like a normal person.

. Booo! I hope you feel better soon. Still anxious for the birth story. Since I'm sure you're not busy and all

I could REALLY use a break from my kids. DH worked close to 70 hours this past week due to a really high priority project he has going on at work, then had class 3 nights, went to work again this morning, and has been golfing in a tournament since about 2:00 today.

Tomorrow is his birthday and we originally had a sitter for tonight so that we could go out and grab a few drinks to celebrate. He then asked me to cancel because he's beat and just wants some family time tonight when he gets home :-(

[jinnifah]

Dh just looked at me and smiled. I responded by sticking out my tongue and raspberrying him.

Me thinks I've been playing with the baby too much.

[ssmjlm]

We told our BFF couple last night and they are so excited! I'm glad we have friends to talk to early since only my family knows and they aren't local.

Today wasn't a good m/s day at all but DH has been awesome about just letting me rest.

I let DS watch SuperWhy for 20 minutes in his jumperoo do I could get everything ready/ prepped for his dinner/ bedtime ( food bib, silverware, wet cloths, bottle, medicine, pjs ect.) We had the smoothest dinner/ bedtime ever. It was awesome. I feel soo guilty....

[pugz]

spitfire- hemorrhoids are THE DEVIL. Worse than natural childbirth, because you have to deal with them at least once a day or every other day for a few weeks. Motherfuckinghemorrhoids.

colace is your friend DO NOT STOP TAKING THE COLACE!!!

[bunch]

I probably shouldn't share this, but my hemorrhoids are still there. Small, but there.

[sewpinkgal]

I propped a bottle for the very first time today.

I was changing in the family restroom after J's swim lesson and he was exhausted, but really needed to eat before passing out in the car. Even though he'll hold his own sippy cup, this child will not hold a bottle. Will. Not. At this point I don't care as we're phasing them out soon anyways, but I needed to get dressed. So, I propped it up on the towel and there he sat in his stroller chugging the bottle while I finished up. Win Win, but it still felt odd.

Oh yeah. I still have the hemmies from DD 2.5 years later. They never actually bothered me much, though.

My vent is that having M/S is way worse when you have a toddler who thinks it's super awesome to jump on your tummy and doesn't like to let mama nap. Cry cry cry.

I can never have a second pregnancy. I will kill Layla.

Aww, this is the truth. I hope you feel better soon!

So, this is a total random, but a long time ago, with my first pregnancy that we lost, I posted on MM about how MIL and FIL made a large donation to a pro-life pregnancy crisis center when our nephew was born in his name and then AWed it in their Christmas letter. It was NBD for them, because they are all pro-lifers, BIL/SIL included.

Weeeelll...I'm very much pro-choice, and REALLY did not want them making an example out of my kid on this one. So even though H thinks I'm making a big deal out of something small, he emailed them last night to let them know, as he phrased it, "to keep their political donations to themselves or pick a neutral organization like the March of Dimes this time." I had no idea he was doing this so I am a little worried he was pretty blunt about it.

Apparently MIL is offended now. I haven't seen the e-mails but she can seriously suck it and better get over it when I hand her a squishy newborn.

Please don't, a little tv is not going to hurt him! I let my kids watch a little PBS in the mornings before school and I swear they learned the alphabet from watching that show, lol.
