The only exception to the rule is Chris Hemsworth. There's just something drop dead sexy about him and I'll take the long hair if I have to.
Whaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!! Honestly I didn't either, until I met my fiancé, and hot damn his beautiful thick wavey brown hair had me like BAM!!! BAM!! BAM BAM
For all the bitching I did on TB about others' baby showers, my FFFC is that I am having a baby shower held for me and this is my second child. In my defense! I didn't ask for it and I did decline! My SIL and sister are joint throwing it (I think? I really hope they aren't each throwing me one) and wouldn't take no for an answer. DH's family will use any excuse to have a party. I asked them to keep it coed, because it's my husband's first biological child. The only other input I had on it is that I want 0 attention on me because I felt uncomfortable having a 2nd shower. I don't know what to do about our registry. We have an Amazon registry just to keep track of what we want/need to buy and to get a completion coupon. We have the money to provide for our own child, otherwise we wouldn't have decided to make him. I feel kind of uncomfortable releasing the list to guests and basically asking them to buy for us. First world problem, I know.
I would not offer up your registry unless asked specifically about it. If your SIL and sister ask for it maybe you could kindly let them kow you'd prefer it to be a diaper party.

When my ex drops the kids off at the house, I make sure I look my absolute best. I want him to remember what he has lost, and how much of an idiot he was. I also sometimes have my husband answer the door when he wears his tight muscle-bearing shirts. The look on my ex’s face is worth a thousand words, and I love it.

This made me laugh! I would do the same thing, I can picture it.. You answer like Oh Hey ..

I think I would ask them not to mention gifts at all on the invite and I wouldn't give them my registry info in case people called and asked. I think a nice coed party is fine especially because you didn't ask for it and it's your SO's first child. I think people will still bring you gifts like wipes, diapers, clothes etc. I think if it were me I would decline opening the gifts at the party.
Like this? Which makes me giggle snort like a 12 year old every single time.
Hahahah vomit. And he looks so proud of himself.
allisong87 - Yeah-- NO. My DH is muscular, but not creeper-mode muscular. That is beyond "Beastmode". That is called "I use steriods and eat 3lbs of ground beef all day, every day."
I cannot stand one of my boyfriend's friends. He's been homeless for 10 years, he's an alcoholic, can't keep a job for longer than a week, blames everyone else for his problems, goes to jail at least twice a year, just an all around bum in my opinion. The upside is that he's a great friend and would literally give you the shirt off his back. I just can't stand how needy he is and I don't think he's a good influence. Ever since I got pregnant we've hung out with him one time and I keep finding excuses to not have him over. I'm trying to distance myself from him and I'm using the baby as an excuse. I don't want him around our child. Period. He drinks too much and can't control his mouth. If they want to go out and play cards and have a few cigars away from the house then that's fine but I don't want anything to do with him. To be completely honest, I don't my boyfriend to have anything to do with him either but they've been friends for over 15 years and I don't feel it's right to dictate who he can and cannot hang out with.
Plus we have a no shoe rule in our home and when he came over to our new place and took off his shoes I thought I was going to hurl. His toenails are disgusting. I won't go into it because I know some of you are probably eating or are about to eat breakfast.

My FFFC, my DS was up coughing a lot last night. Just a dry cough... when the humidifier and water, and other things didn't work... I gave him a children's Benedryl after a few hours, just to see if it would knock him out enough to make the cough stop. And... it did.
Mine is more of an UO but I've got nothing else today - I think it's weird to go see 50 Shades in the theater. Why would you want to get all hot and bothered in a room full of strangers? I read the first book and it was somewhat entertaining and I have nothing against the movie itself but if I'm gonna watch it, I wanna be home in bed with DH.

I would describe myself as confident, but lately....
I've become extremely self conscious and self judgmental about my bump. I know I shouldn't complain, but I'm actually starting to get nervous medically speaking, which the logical part of my brain says is stupid. I even stayed away from hdbd for a a little while until this week.
I'm comparing my bump to others, and even this week at 24 weeks, I feel my bump is so small. Too small? I know my dr would have said something if she was too small, but with only going monthly....it's been a while. Then I worry, is she ok? Am I not eating enough? oh no I totally am. Am I not eating enough of the right things? I think I am. Idk. Am I drinking enough water, does she have enough amniotic fluid, maybe that's why my bump is small, I need more fluid? I'm driving my logical side nuts. I know every body and every pregnancy is different but Im feeling like an outlier.
I'm scared, but then I know that's silly. I feel like I have split personality over this!!! Ahhhhh!
DD is still on the bottle and she will be 19 months on the 3rd. I don't know WTF to do anymore. I have tried 5 different sippy cups and they work for a few days and then she just wants the bottle. I feel like a bad mom when we go to story time or gymnastics and she just randomly starts asking for the bottle, it seems like no one else ever has that problem around me.
beebe918 that's a good idea! I am hoping I got the message across to my SIL that I want it to be like any other family get-together they have (like I said, they love to party so there are a lot), so very low-key. I hate opening presents in front of others no matter what the circumstance so hopefully we can get away with that if we get presents.
ME TOO. It's the only part about Christmas and birthdays I dislike....it's just so awkward for me and I feel like I need to muster a perfect "gratuity performance" every time, even if it's something I'm not wild about. I don't mean to sound like a selfish brat, and I do appreciate the thought that goes into any gift (or even just people/friends showing up because they love me/us)....I just hate the "ooh-ahh-wonderful-amazing-thank-you" thing that goes with presents.
BFP #1 7/07/11 ~ Due Date 3/18/12 ~ MMC Dx 8/17/12 (at 9wks) BFP #2 10/30/11 ~ Due Date 7/9/12 ~ DS born 7/10/12 BFP #3 1/07/14 ~ Due Date 9/19/14 ~ MMC Dx 2/14/14 (at 8wks) BFP #4 8/25/14 ~ Due Date 5/2/15 ~ DD born 5/7/15
I have never and have no desire to read or see 50 shades. It makes me think of "I hope they serve beer in hell" which is so disgusting I can't believe I read the 10 pages I read!

I don't mean to be all "have you tried ____?" but here I go anyway. So have you tried these
or something similar with just a straw? Maybe she will find it easier and you can skip sippys all together. I wish I went straight to these, they are inexpensive and DD loves them.

I do this too sometimes and I think its totally natural to worry. You're growing a human! If you didn't have concerns ever I think that would be strange.
