Sizing sucks. DS is on the low end of the growth charts and his weight gain is also on the very low end of normal. I bought 9 months stuff to last through the summer and now his ass barely fits in it. Umm, why are you growing more now? I can never get the timing right.
Oh well, MOAR shopping.
I'm having the same problem. My kid still fit into some of her 3 month stuff at 6 months. Now at 8 months she fits into some 12 month stuff. But then she still has 9 month stuff that's big on her too. What gives?
Side note, she has dainty little feet. I now understand the point of 0-3 month walking shoes and socks with grips because they still fit her.

This is because all these baby clothes are sized different I swear!!
DD has some skirts that are 3 months that she can just NOW wear because they were so big in the waist. She is anywhere from 6-12 months, then MIL had her in an 18 month romper the other day and it looked like it fit perfect. I blame Carters
So my interview yesterday went great. They called today and offered me the job!
Now I have to figure out if I want to be a 0.8 or a 0.9? I want to be a 0.8 - but it would be a difference of roughly $400/month ($300 if I account for only 4 days of daycare). I don't know what to do. With a 0.9 I would have a day off every two weeks, which would still be nice.
I also need to decide if I want to and how to negotiate salary. Also, they want to know by next Monday if I accept the job or not. I have other interviews next week too. It's just so many decisions so fast. I'm too indecisive for this!!!!
So I saw my therapist yesterday....she recommended that I get involved with a mom group in the area to meet new people. I don't even know where to start and I am scared!
I am afraid I am going to try and joining in on a group that has been together a while, and I will be an outsider... like a straggler on TB

I would be anxious about this too but only because I'm pretty antisocial IRL. I'm sure it's different meeting people in person though, what with the kids interacting with each other too. I don't typically talk to people that I don't know but anytime I'm out with DD anymore I'm always finding myself in conversations with strangers and it's actually kind of nice. These kids are good little icebreakers!

Hit me up with a PM if you want to talk this through. It's nerve-wracking, but women are already paid less, and are much less likely to negotiate their salary. I'm happy to help!

I think that's a great idea. It will probably be a challenge but it could have a huge pay off. Plus your DD is so cute the other moms will be all over her. If they are unfriendly, it's probably because they are jealous that their baby isn't as cute as yours and you can talk shit about them to us.

ok, so the one mom group I am finding in my area, mostly meets withOUT kids. Its focused on giving mom some time and social interaction. But if I join... will I be all awkward and like hey guys.. I am new, come talk to me! I am intrigued though

but is there wine? I wish there were mom groups around here. It'd be so much easier to make friends with people

Yes I see lots of pictures with wine and drinks! So this could be ok...
Thanks ladies! I'm super excited but also now having all the sads because that means dd has to start daycare and I won't get to spend so much time with her

This is my worst nightmare. I mean, I really hope it's awesome and you connect with some women and drink a lot of wine, but seriously, I would maybe die from anxiety. This is why I'm like, make new friends? Nah.
You saw me when I started dating. Hot mess is like the nicest way to describe it.

Same here. Plus I think everyone doesn't like me. All the time.

I'm convinced 90% of this board doesn't like me pretty much all the time, so I feel you.

I hear you! Hence the reason I don't have a ton of close friends IRL. I am afraid to put myself out there. I feel like I have to try something new at some point or I am never going to have a social life :/

i think this is because we are so damn hard on ourselves
I learned yesterday.. even though H tells me all the time. I have to cut myself some slack. I even told my therapist exactly what you said (about myself yesterday)
And her response was that, I don't see that AT ALL, you seem totally normal and like someone I would associate with in life. Cut yourself some slack! So now I am telling you!
