TSA is fucking thorough. They searched my stroller, carryon, boobs, and groin (for terrorists/explosives/drugs?). I just started unpacking and found that they searched my checked bag, too.
You must look shifty AF bc they barely acknowledge me
Fear the harried 30-something lady with the cranky toddler. They're certainly up to something.
My sister wants me to go to Kansas with her this summer to go to my half sister's wedding.
I only found out about her several years ago and then it was a few more before she tracked us down. Her and my sister have talked and formed a relationship. I have only talked to her once.
Is it weird I dont want to go? Im just sort of indifferent to her if that makes sense.

@catdog72 the 4month sleep regression was the worst two months of Parenting to date for us. Our only saviors were a wubbanub pacifier, Merlin magic sleep suit, and a swing. You have all my sorrys
This reminded me...the Swaddle Up was awesome for us.
At this age, DS wanted to be held facing outward basically all the time. It was tough. Once he hit about 5.5 months, I could put him outward facing in the Ergo 360, and we were all so much happier!
Yessss at 6-9 months my boys loved the Ergo bc they were snuggled to me but DD gets irritated that she can't SEE ALL THE THINGS and gets mad

Not weird.
Not wanting to get to know someone and not wanting to travel for the wedding of someone you barely know are very different.
I can see how it would feel awkward to respond no, especially if your sister says yes. Would it help if you set up some other occasion to spend time with her?
the exercise ball saved us. They are inexpensive as well. We got the biggest one bc my H is 6 ft 5 in, but I could still use it and I'm more than a foot shorter. Highly recommend.
I spent so much GD time on that ball with DD2. I usually had her in a carrier/wrap while bouncing on the ball.

I am drinking camomile tea instead of wine because diet. I am giving up alcohol for the month. Now, someone needs to come padlock the leftover Indian food.
I'm here. I survived the forgotten meeting with minimal embarrassment. I'm going to do my work out and make dinner. I asked DH not to come home with the attitude he was wearing at therapy today. He just texted he'll be home at 6:30 so I hope that means he's in a better frame of mind. High likelihood of margs later.

I have never had TSA pay so much attention to me as when I've traveled while pregnant or carrying breast milk.
@mischeif611 I strongly suspect that I have half sibs out there in the world. I don't even want to discover them, let alone go to a wedding. I think you are a stronger person than me just by meeting her and being ambivilant.
I have never met her, we have talked on the phone once. We are FB friends, but neither of has ever initiated any more contact that. I kind of feel like an asshole because I just have no desire to get to know her better. She is my bio dad's daughter and I also have a very minimal, almost non existent relationship with him.

When I flew at 24 weeks I had my belly felt up. It was so awkward and I was not expecting it
When we flew with DS I had a package of wipes and they said on the X-ray machine it looked like a bomb so I had to have the whole pat down thing. I was annoyed because poor H had to hold a squirming baby plus all of our carry ons.
I just don't think it's possible to keep this up. For me it would not be for an array of reasons.
Ideas?
Put him down?
I just feel this is too much on you. The constant holding and then standing to boot? That's too much. Plus you work and plus he Bother child. My concern is your stamina. If you can deal OK.
I know Larry happened. Please do not try to convince me otherwise. Please don't talk to me about coffee. I don't drink it. I don't caffeine. When I state my opinion, that is me chiming in on a topic. This is not me saying you suck at life if you do or feel differently. If I want to say that, I will. If I want to speak on you, I will.
Tonight's plan is to assemble a tv stand thingie so we can watch tv! I'm excited. DH is being jokingly judgemental about how happy I am to have tv to coparent with me.
Live in the real world, Mr. Tlex. These things are necessary.
@catdog72 I have had two super high maintenance, hold-me-all-the-time babies, and I will say that I put DD2 down and let her fuss/cry a lot more just out of necessity. I don't think she's any worse for the wear and looking back I'm kind of baffled that I survived DD1.
Like McBenny said, you need to take care of you too. I tried to do better by myself the second time around, especially during the early months of have two, and it was important.
the exercise ball saved us. They are inexpensive as well. We got the biggest one bc my H is 6 ft 5 in, but I could still use it and I'm more than a foot shorter. Highly recommend.

Same here, it was the only way she would nap for the first 5 months. It was a hard time...
