I let DD watch waaayyyy too much tv and none of it is kid friendly. We constantly have it on. If she is laying on her play mat on the floor she will wiggle herself until she can see it. We binge watch lifetime movies and real housewives almost everyday we just stay at home.
Also, I cuss way too much in front of her. The rate we are going her first words will be shit piss ass fuck. DH is a lot better at keeping his mouth under control when she is around. Me, not so much.
mmarie I did a good job cleaning up my language while I was pregnant, in prep for DS, but it has lapsed since. It doesn't help that DH & all the ILs cuss all the time. The nephews (3 & almost 2) rarely repeat.
Today I yelled at LO. I believe my exact words were something along the lines of omg shut the fuck up already.
I hate teething so much.
I've done that. It's weird- the times I yell almost surprise me, because I'll be all cool and then just snap (only with words), then I'll be fine. It's like I just needed to relieve pressure, like popping a zit.

I am really good in public but at home its like I need to get it all out. Curse words have been in my vocabulary since 2nd grade. My mom's boyfriend at the time had his own fire proofing business and I spent a lot of time on job sites with a bunch of guys not really caring that I was there and not watching their mouths. I knew I couldn't go to school and say all that. I try really hard but I'm clumsy so I hurt myself a lot or the dogs step on my foot and there's just no words besides "shit piss ass fuck" that seem appropriate for those situations. Lol

I heard Brady poop himself this morning right after I got him back to sleep. I didn't even consider changing him because I didn't want to wake him because I really needed a nap. In reality, it was only a shart but it was still a bad mom moment.
My husband and I may also say inappropriate sexual comments to each other in front of O. If I shouldn't cuss I probably should clean up that part of my language as well.

The other day, we were convinced the toddler was saying something else before we figured out she was saying paci.
I really don't want to have to change what I'm watching on TV and start having annoying kids shows on all the time (or the tv off). DH and I watch way too much TV and our lifestyle is going to have to change even more than it already has.
I let DD cry it out today for an afternoon nap, and we're going to be doing it from now on for naptime. We've officially formed a bad habit with her sleeping on us and it needs to stop before it gets worse.
She fell asleep after about 30 minutes, napped for 30 minutes, and I let her cry for about fifteen after that to see if she'd go back to sleep. When I went to get her she was in the best mood she's been in in over a week. And she mastered rolling tummy to back. Also, she took a nap on her playmat around 7pm after maybe 5 minutes of fussing instead of me having to rock her to sleep or even pick her up.

That depends. We're going to need a few examples to really judge the situation.

dacora, I'm doing some cry it out as well. Brady is starting to respond and go to sleep faster. Today I played Mario Brothers on the Wii while I waited for him to finish crying it out. I felt a little guilty but enjoyed just being silly for awhile.
haha badw0lf, have you seen 'Blended' with Reece Witherspoon and Adam Sandler? She bonks this one kid's head on like every door post in the movie. Hilarious :-P
