UO's/Randoms

[jt2378]

After I caused such an uproar with donuts last week, I don't quite have my UO yet today, lol!

So DD really decided to torture me last night, add me to the list of LO's who decided it was time to legit party for 1.5 hours at 12:30 last night! She was laughing, sitting up, rolling here, there and everywhere and having a grand old time while I felt like I could cry. UGH I should have known that when I put her down at 8:00 and she was sitting up in her crib wimpering by 8:30, it was going to be a long night! All the coffee in the world won't help my grumpiness today..

jt2378,sorry you had such a rough night!

I just don't get the hype over the show Big Brother....I tried watching it once and thought it was terrible!

[jt2378]

doglover31, I totally agree about Big Brother.

This day is getting better, my boobs couldnt get the message to pump this morning so after struggling for 15 minutes all of a sudden they work so my 15 minute pump break just turned into 30 mins, do not care!

[judyblume14]

I've never seen an episode of big brother. But I saw the thread pinned this morning. Which made me think - do any of you ladies watch Pretty Little Liars? If so, you should join in on the chaotic thread we have going on over in Parenting. I don't hang out on the Parenting board, but participate in that thread!

No UO at the moment. Just that I am of the opinion that the world should revolve around me. Apparently that's unpopular with my baby, my husband, and all of my co-workers.

Assholes.

[jt2378]

Here's mine, I don't even have Facebook. LOL

[jt2378]

I sound so behind the times and I'm really not that old fashioned (flip phone, no facebook account) haha you ladies must think I'm a total dork

@lildiamondeyes i'll have to look but for the longest time we'd only post pics where you couldn't clearly see his face. I'm paranoid, idk.

judyblume14 i just started season 5 now that it's on Netflix. It's like Once upon a time for me, i roll my eyes for half the episode but can't stop watching!

@adulruna, ya my husband is super freaked out about having any pics of DD on the internet so that is why I haven't really posted any. I'm not as worried but basically just doing it to respect him I guess.

[doglover31]

@adulruna, we have told our parents and friends that they are not able to post pictures of DS on Facebook without our approval. That did cause some battles. But I am comfortable sharing his pictures with my friends but I am not comfortable with them sharing pictures on the internet with people I don't know.

DH and I decided that when I was pregnant. And we have stuck to it. He's our kid, so we make the choices for him right now.

same thing happened here last night. Ugh.

soooooo sorry @giamia923! it sucks!!

[judyblume14]

@adulruna, it's the most ridiculous show. It's like Gossip Girl on crack with murders. Can't. Stop. Watching.

[designaddiction]

I feel like the Facebook opinion is popular, so my UO is that I love posting pictures of LO on Facebook. I'm a bit of an AW that way, but I do also have a private message thread with al my family where I post more pics cuz not everyone wants to see your kid all the time...

[designaddiction]

And update on my pumping situation, cuz you all are dying to know...my battery died in my pump so now I have to sit attached to a wall with it plugged in, and/or order a new battery for like $60.

My UO, I don't like posting pictures of LO on facebook because I don't want anyone to share them and people i don't know looking at him, plus i know people don't want me to spam my child all over FB.
I get irrationally angry when my IL's set their profile pictures on apps like Whatsapp or BBM as his.
I know I can't keep him locked up in a box forever but I feel like I would ask permission before posting pictures of someone else's kid.
I've gotten a bit less angry about it but it still bothers me.
Or is this more a confession? Lol

My mother posted the first pic of LO on FB after she was just born! I was beyond pissed! My SIL also wrote a post announcing LO however tied it into the loss of her Uncle like a "circle of life" thing. Fucking assholes!

*gasp* WTH! I would be pissed too! Rude!

ugh. me too.  So, I SWORE I would only post a couple pictures here and there. But I think I might post too much.  I mean it's not like, every day. But I do the whole "L is 9 months old!" and post 5 pics.  Then randomly throughout the month i'll post a pic here or there.  It's maybe a dozen pics a month, which could be WAY worse... but it's a shit ton more than I ever wanted to post.

[alioop1028]

jt2378, I am sending you and your LO all the sleepy vibes for tonight! And hope your day gets better.

+1 or 2, I guess 

I guess my UO is also that I just really don't care if you post pics of my LO on Facebook.  Post all of the pics.  I don't post often either, maybe 2-3 pics a month.  We don't see much family or many of our friends very often so I post pics for them to see him.  If we met up with a friend or family and took pics and posted them, hooray, more pics for me to see.

OMG I love this! You can listen to it being read aloud on Youtube. One night when DS was cranky and wouldn't go to sleep I played this for him! He still didn't go to sleep.....

+1 on all you have said...

ETA - I guess +1 is weird to say since I started it and you agreed, but I agree with your agreeing statements.

I am always so thankful when Thursday comes around. I only work a half day Friday so I only have to make one bottle but I should still keep pumping like crazy to try and build up more stash.

I have heard that....I don't remember where though.

#superhelpful

[spacedcadet]

jt2378 - I just googled cheerios constipation and got this link...

www.constipation-remedies-for-all.com/baby-constipation.html

Where it references the cheerios:

"So if your baby has a tendency to get constipated, I recommend that you stop using baby cereals. I also recommend that you avoid white bread, crackers, pastas and other type of cereals like cheerios (I know, one of the best finger food ever invented)."
