I often miss living 1000 miles away from our families. Best excuse ever to skip out on inconvenient family obligations!
I live 1000 miles away from my family and some days it stinks, but most days I like it. The only thing I don't like now is that my ILs are two minutes away and sometimes I resent having to see them all the time and never getting to see my own family.

This. Exactly this. Then again I always agree with myself so that's no surprise
I do not care to hide my stretch marks by wearing a one piece or a tankini. I will wear bikinis because I find them very comfortable and they're cute. I don't look at my stretch marks as "battle scars" but I'm the kind of person that doesn't let things that can't be changed affect me.
Kind of like getting old, I'm not one of those women that is afraid of going gray or getting wrinkles. It's bound to happen and I look forward to getting older. I'm 25 and already have gray hairs in my eyebrows and I'm looking forward to the day of gray hair.

I'm sure this is all highly unpopular.
the states are the only place that gives a shit about a one piece. Every where else I've been EVERYONE wears bikinis. I saw a 400 lb chick rocking a 2 piece. zero fucks given and i admire anyone with the balls to rock a two piece.

I've had stretch marks since gaining and loosing weight in high school. For most of my life I haven't worn a bikini because of that and still being a little overweight and just generally poor body image issues. Currently I'm at the lowest weight I've been at in my adult life and feeling pretty good about myself but my tummy is still kind of lumpy and saggy and gross, just on a much smaller scale. I'm going to the beach in August and I'm trying to tone up some before then but if I don't IDGAF I'm definitely still wearing a bikini!
Gray hair though I have issues with. I've been dying my hair since I spotted my first gray strand at 19 and I don't think I'll be embracing my grays anytime soon.
My niece and nephew just had their second baby, and they are ALL over facebook like right after it happened. It took me a week to even look at my phone or FB or anything after I had DD. I completely disconnected. I didn't want to be bothered with the world and wanted to hide out with my baby.
I feel like people go over board with that shit like - look at me, look at me. Enjoy your baby and get the F off of facebook already and stop with the damn selfies
(Maybe I am a little envious that they have a newborn baby) My UTE is screaming

I take DS to Gymboree classes to get out of the house when my H is gone and all of the other parents do this! They take out their phones and take a ton of pictures and don't even interact with their kids. It annoys me. A- I don't want my kid in your photos, thanks. B- It's 45 minutes! Enjoy time with your baby, shit.

My kid was very much over shared but that was mostly because of MIL. I think DH and I both posted one picture and were then internet silent for a few weeks.
Also, I have the baby fever bad now too! I even kind of miss being pregnant, like WTF??

Idk, I posted A LOT of photos of DS in the first few weeks. No selfies though. I also wasn't on my phone much because I was sleeping a lot, but I was on Facebook a ton.
ETA: and especially newborns, they don't really do much other than eat, sleep, cry. Plus second baby. But I am surprised they have time to be all over FB with two kids. Who's wrangling the toddler?

Yeah, I try to be conscious of this. I don't want to miss life or have it pass me by because my face is buried in my phone.

I think posting pictures for everyone to see especially at first is ok. right people are curious... but when your wife is in labor and your are all over Facebook its like.. Dude, be present and attend to your wife. Maybe that is more my problem. I think some people are more worried that everyone is paying attention to them in that moment than they are about what is actually happening. Maybe this is just try in life PERIOD.

I know.. I am not gonna lie, I have NOT been feeling like that lately, now I am all like I NEED A BABY

I struggle with this ALL THE TIME. I want to be in the moment, but I also want to capture things for my H.

I will say,.... I take a lot of pictures. but then my phone is down and I am on the floor playing with DD. Typically any messing around with photos, unless I am sending a quick one to H or MIL, happens once she is in bed. I try to take pictures though for me, so that I can do a scrap book or something.
I am also worried about making sure I capture some moments .... Does that even make sense or contradict my original statement? lol

We all know how I feel about way over sharing on social media. I agree that newborns don't do anything though so meh. I was also radio silent on FB for quite a while. I actually fell off TB for a while. It was rough for me though. I agree in that people spend too much time trying to capture the moment on their phone for everyone else to be jealous about instead of just being in the moment. Put the fucking phone away. Nothing is more annoying to me then when you go to hang out with friends and everyone is on their phone. I want to shove their phone up their ass

My dad will always make us do that Pinterest thing where you pile up your phones face down on the table and the first one to look has to pay. Works.
