I think double side by side strollers are huge and obnoxious.
Not to say I'll never own one (probably not), but wow why do people even bother bringing it into stores?? It just seems like a big hassle! I get that people use them mainly for exercise or whatever, but even then I don't get it.

I love my side by side. I have the city micro (no longer made). It fits easily through doorways and can be maneuvered with one hand. I prefer it to the high end city double stroller. My best friend had the City double baby stroller that you can change the seat positions. She said her taller kids became uncomfortable in it quickly and she switched to the city mini double which is a side by side.
I also find the front to back doubles cumbersome.
I only use mine in places where the kids have to walk long periods outside and never in stores outside of a mall. We are basically done with ours at this point.
I have a double BOB. It is massive. We use it for walks. It's great on the canal by our house that's not paved. We brought it to a festival this year too and it was good because both kids could sit, but it was really tough to navigate it through the crowds.
I will probably just use our City mini single most of the time and wear the new baby. One kid will just have to walk.
swarley , @katechristine18 , Elmo's Letter of the Day song is constantly stuck in my head. I hear it in my dreams. I like it for now, but I can see it driving me crazy down the line

Unpopular in both sides of my Facebook feed: Degrading nicknames for politicians, no matter how vile the person, do nothing to further an argument or bring understanding.
(I might laugh at them for being clever but I won't use them.)

I will use them in this corner of the interwebs as much as possible.
I think I called Patrick Toomey a prick or something yesterday though on FB for shutting his phones off so constituents can't call him, for now I will stand by that because that is a serious dick move. I am still bitter.

Oh, that's different. If you always referred to him as "Fat Dummy" or something, that's what I mean.
My mind totally was thinking a different completely definition of BOB when reading wells2010 post. The I realized it's not FFFC and finished the sentence.
I now have letter of the day in my head, thanks guys.

I love my city mini double! I use front back doubles or sit and stands. It fits through every door way and aisle and I don't have kids fighting who gets to be in front. It also closes way easier than front backs I've tried.
I have no fight in the Sesame Street game- we don't watch it and never have
I too hate the side-by-side strollers. We had a jogger that we used for outside activities only and it was still a PITA. We got a lot more mileage out of a front to back double stroller.
We are apparently baby hipsters. The only shows AB actually watches are Yo Gabba Gabba and Reading Rainbow. Neither of which currently air. She DGAF about Elmo or Mickey even though we tried.
We just started watching Sesame Street to add some educational/age appropriate programming. I think A is fairly indifferent towards it. Her favorites are The Wiggles, Curious George, PBS Kids shows and Doc McStuffins. We dont have cable, she's only seen maybe one episode of MMCH and nothing from Nick.
rach I feel like A would love Yo Gabba Gabba. Is in on any streaming services?
Uo: I don't care if I receive thank you cards for gifts I've given. I think they are a total waste of time and resources and immediately end up in the trash anyway. I give gifts because I want to, not to receive thanks.
I'd much rather have someone text me a quick pic of them/their kid enjoying the thing I got them. My bff just texted me a pic of her daughter wearing the outfit I sent her with a cheesy grin on her face and it made my day. Don't need a handwritten card...that was way better.

There's a handful of episodes on YouTube actually! You'll have a party in your tummy in no time.
My UO: The GBS swab is so much more awkward than pooping on the delivery table.
Last pregnancy, they just handed me the kit and sent me off to the bathroom to do it myself. I'm not sure what they'll do this time around. In a way, I think having it done to me rather than trying to do it myself in a bathroom stall might be less awkward, especially if they're already all up in my business doing a cervical check.
So jealous. I would rather swab myself for sure! They didn't check me this time, so it was just all awkwardness.
