DD2 largely ignores me when I tell her no. DS will either do the same or turns around to give flash me an impish smile then carries on. Sometimes they will cry when I put a stop to things, it depends on their mood. DH is a little more intimidating and makes them cry more often than me. They now sometimes cry when the other one takes their toy away too.
Re coffee: I use creamer at home. At a coffee shop I get vanilla latte or mocha. It has to be sweet or I just can't. I will never understand how people can drink it black.
Re tantrums: we started way back with the bend in half while sitting (face to the ground, crying). Then we went to flinging his whole body to the ground and burying his face while fake whining. Then it turned to turning out his hands like "whyyyy" and sobbing. And just this week we've started screaming (literal high pitch scream) and biting. So, yea, tantrums are a big deal here, and have been for quite some time. He's very dramatic.

All the delicious black coffee for me. I love the taste of coffee so I buy the good stuff. I buy coffee with chicory from Cafe du Monde in New Orleans by the case and brew it at home. So good.
As for responses to "no" , C looks at me and repeats no, no and wags her finger at me. Then she goes right back to doing whatever it is I said no to. Now when she approaches certain things (dog bowls, outlets), she starts saying no and wags her finger before I say it. Funny but not funny, kid. Trying to keep you safe here
I haven't been on all day (work last night, sleep today, kid pick up, dinner, chores, etc) but omg I have to vent. SO and I are having the third kid discussion and he said he's pretty sure he doesn't want another. So I said if that's the case, he needs a vasectomy. So I can get my iud out. He is making annoying "owwww" faces about it. Ummmmm I pushed two babies out my vagina. Fairly sure you can tolerate a little office procedure. Not to mention the whole "carried them for 9 months" thing. Pfffffft. Men. Boo.

My favourite response to 'no' was my nephew's. He was still in the crawling phase but would actually cover his ears so he didn't hear mom. This is the same kid that liked to paint with his poop, BTW.
followthesun Sometimes DS will look at me and say "ah, ah" before putting something in his mouth. He can be such a little stinker!

leahks77 my DH is adamant he will never have a vasectomy. He says he is fine with using condoms and his father never had one (yes dear, which is why you have a sister 12 years your junior). I believe he also said he wouldn't feel whole. *Eyeroll*

Lol at the little sister and so many eye rolls at men in general, haha.
DS seems legit terrified if I give a stern no. He seems to be terrified of life in general so not a surprise, but it makes discipline difficult- really thin line with him.

MH's distaste for condoms won out. He also said the whole less of a man thing. Whatevs, dude.
I'll have to ask for a post report. He got his done right before the holidays and hasn't been mopey about it.

I want H to get a vasectomy too. I have a copper IUD and the periods are awful. Like I feel like I'm in middle school again and unprepared for it.

I have the Skyla and they've been as bad or worse than when I had nothing! I thought they would go away... maybe eventually... but really. If we are going to be done permanently, it's a lot easier for them to make that step...

H has already said he's open to it but we're not ready for that step yet. Depending on how we do with 2 kiddos there will be a discussion about a third.

re coffee: Love the smell, can't stand the taste. Dh loves coffee and we have a fancy espresso maker but i just can't. i do love starbucks drinks though. frappes and things with tons of sugar in them. haha
re No: DD will stop and look at me, then laugh and try to be "fast" about what ever she is doing wrong. sometimes she will cry and be upset about it if i take something away or stop her from going somewhere.
re Birthcontrol: Dh will be getting a vasectomy when we are all done. But we thought of doing something for a few years before so then we are sure sure about it. I think i will be the one telling him we are done. Dude wants all the babies. we will take it one at a time and see

I've made this statement before on my other board and got flamed for it. I am on team H gets a vasectomy because I have already done the childbirth thing.
But you can't go that yet because you need to have another baby. 🤰🏼

And you were flamed for this? Sheesh.
Unless you're getting a c-section and having your tubes tied at the same time it is just such an easier option for all parties involved.

I think it was how I worded it. I said that I had already had lots of pain from pregnancy and childbirth and now it's DHs turn to have a little pain. Or something like that.

Yikes. I'm glad you all understood where I was coming from. His physical contributions thus far have been... enjoyable, haha. Mine have been... not as much. And also, yes, I totally need another baby 😊So it's a non issue. But someday...
Team give the men all the pain and vasectomies. 🙋🏻 At this point I think H would be totally content being done. He knows I want at least one more and has said it's not totally off the table. One more, and I'll let him be done. 😉
