Babies are top heavy, so if you put them head up you run the risk of them falling out as you evacuate. The pockets in the ones used these days are a more mesh material so it's not like they will suffocate being head down as you leave.
Thanks for the explanation...I was confused
+1 Thanks for clearing up the confusion. That is a really cool invention. Adding in the mesh makes so much more sense.
CD1 for me. Just hoping to make it through my family get together today with 3 new babies and 2 pregnant cousins without too many people talking about how fertile our family is.
We have guests coming over today and I've been busy cleaning. DH is being an ass. I snapped at him and now he's mad at me. We've been fighting a lot lately.
hugs housecarder and theophania. Sometimes family really sucks. My grandpa keeps telling me to try harder because obviously I'm not doing it right. He couldn't not knock up my grandma (which is yucky). He tells me this every time I see him He also told me the house we bought is too big and we shouldn't buy it without kids.
I love how everyone else seems to have all the answers and opinions to problems/choices that aren't their business.
And why do our families all act like we owe them an heir? Unless you're giving me a royal title and landholdings, my uterus is not your concern.
MH and I had our first fight about infertility last night.
And an elderly couple just came to our door "looking for children". They're hosting a block party in our neighborhood tonight and wanted to know if I had any kids to bring. I just said no. It was awkward.
Maybe I should just go back to bed. Or start drinking now.. #dontjudgeme

My mom is one of those people who is really into positive thinking and genuinely believes if we want something bad enough and generate the positive thoughts and emotions associated with that then it will all work out. The universe provides - or something. Anyway, her and a friend of ours were asking about when I was ttc and saying they were so sure I was going to GKU first try after my loss (I'm kind of keeping this cycle on the dl from everyone but MH to avoid all the questions) and I was explaining the science behind conception - 20% or so chance and how I was in a different head space this time after my CP and how I was trying to be practical about the chances, etc. and she said - I shit you not - to someone she knows miscarriaged a few month ago "It sounds like you don't really WANT to be pregnant right now." Ugh, mom.

This sounds like she has been drinking the Kool-Aid that is "The Secret"

I think mimosas were invented so we can day drink without judgement.

And Bloody Marys
I like my alcohol like I like my salad, in the same glass.
I just took my dog for a ride because I desperately needed Starbucks before the process of cleaning my house. SO is working this morning so I get to do everything myself before everyone gets here.
I've been MIA on here, what's going on this weekend? Who is coming over?
My SO's parents and aunt & uncle plus my parents, sister, and niece. They should be here in a half hour. I just got out of the shower.
We didn't do anything last weekend so we're having a BBQ today. No special occasion.
MY HOUSE IS FINALLY IMMACULATE! Holy fuck am I tired now. I have lots of Mike's hard lemonade and summer woodchuck cider in the fridge though. Let the day drinking commence!
After a long ass week (not a bad one, but just long and full of responsibilities) I finally slept for 10 hours straight last night. I would have slept longer if my dog didn't wake me up to be fed.
He's doing a kind of hunger strike thing though. My MIL gave us a little thing of Cesar dog food so I mixed in a spoonful of it into his breakfast hard food as a treat for a few days until it was gone. Now when I pour his plain boring hard food in the bowl he just sits there and waits until I "dress it up" for him. I'm trying to break him of the habit. I'm on the comp, he is just sitting by the food bowl...waiting.
We did that for my dog once. We never got him out of the habit. Sometimes he even waits for real human food now on top of dry and a spoon of wet food.
Why does MH keel getting giant packages delivered when i'm the only one home? And why do they keep leaving them on my neighbor's side porch? I don't want to go outside or carry heavy boxes in my pajamas.
If they weren't potentially perishable i'd leave them outside.
