So we just had to switch to Nutramigen formula from Gerber good start gentle. The past two days he has ate NONSTOP. I'm praying its a growth spurt and not that this formula doesn't fill him up like the other. This shit is too expensive!!
erbear and carolyngrace, I feel you on the mother problems. Mine decided to tell me this week that we "need to fix our issues" and that she wants to discuss going to counseling together every week. Umm lady - I have a 6 month old baby, I just started a very intense new job, and I'm in grad school. You've had no interest in "our issues" since I was 17 years old and you cancelled our counseling because our therapist told you that you were part of the problem too. Why are you choosing right now to start this nonsense again and why would you suggest it during Christmas? We've been perfectly civil to one another for years and we have several safe topics we talk about that don't start fights. Can we not just leave well enough alone?
Joolschweets yep, we've had a fussy, gassy, pukey baby. My mom kept saying "but she's so happy now! I knew you'd be mad at me, but she's so happy!" Yeah, no. I am still upset over it. I thought I could trust my mom to feed LO the way we've learned she needs to be fed, not the way my mom "who raised three kids and you're all ok!" did.
I haven't been on much this week. Happy holidays to all!
I need to vent a bit... MH's bff is over (again) for Sunday night football and H asks him what he's doing for NYE & starts inviting him over. WTF? Maybe can you talk to me first about what is going on NYE? Apparently he also spoke to another one of his friends about coming over too.
If this happens, I will be cooking shit for all of them and that is all I will have to do other than play with J. It's not like he's inviting couples over. He's inviting two single dudes over. And back to WTF are you thinking without talking to me first?

You don't have to agree to that... Right? I would have said something then and there. Damn we have some insensitive husbands tonight!!

Oh, I said something about it right in front of the bff. H is usually not that stupid.
The diet bet is a pinned thread... Apparently you pay $10 and keep track on a website together.. I haven't looked at the details yet!
Signed up but haven't paid yet!
@jemomma Oh man, I would have gone upstairs, but not to fix a snack.. Rage.
DH is in the kitchen being helpful while I entertain and feed T. I walk in and he asks, "You know what this is called?" as he gestures around himself. I didn't even miss a beat. "Foreplay!"
In other news, why do people ignore their little shithead children at weddings? I did not come to parent your kid...
wegrowsheep, that is the WORST. The was a baby SCREAMING at my friends wedding. I totally get that babies cry. But it was so bad the the pastor actually had to stop the wedding and ask the mom to step outside with the baby because the bride and groom couldn't hear the vows.
Also +1 on the it being a huge turn on when Dads are being great with their little ones.

Yeah, I stepped outside when T started fussing (annoyed, because it was cold!).

This woman didn't have to even go outside...just out of the chapel into the bigger part of the church and her baby was not fussing she was screaming as if someone bit her. It was brutal.
@jemomma I seriously would have lost my shit. Just because football is on, you still have to adult. Damn men.
Joolschweets I am sorry - tooth pain is the worst, and so expensive!
stinybean sorry your DH didn't talk to you first about NYE before inviting his friends over. Again, damn men! Did you squash it, or are you going to let them come? If you do, you should invite some of your friends, or some couples, so you both can have some fun
michyme123 how scary! Hopefully it is just the hormones from the pill and it will all work itself out.
wegrowsheep I hate having to discipline other people's kids in any situation. I used to work with this lady who had the worst kids I've ever seen. She brought them to work one day and the youngest one kicked every single person he came up to in the shin multiple times. Every.Single.Person. The mom just sat there and did nothing. So I finally did. So frustrating!
O has been in a foul mood all evening, right up until bedtime. Then she was super happy, wide awake and ready to party and laugh. I've never tried putting her in her crib wide awake, only drowsy, but I did tonight and it worked like a charm with no fussing at all!
Over the last few days, I've been told repeatedly that my child is "spoiled for her mama." No, she usually is happy and likes to be around people. We've just had an extremely busy four days, her naps have been non-existent, she's overstimulated, and we are utterly exhausted. So yes, she is going to fuss and be unhappy when she's not with me or her Daddy.
I hope all the sick mamas and babies get well soon. That sinus cogestion/cold/bronchitis junk is the pits.
I can't really complain about H. He put together a basketball goal for his daughter/my step-daughter and a bouncer for T before he dug his xbox out and set it up.
However, little one started saying "mamamama" two weeks ago, and he hands her to me every time she says it and says "she wants you." Now she's saying "dadadada," and when I hand her to him saying "she wants you" he rolls his eyes and looks at me like I'm nuts. Boys. Lol.

My in-laws are here. They are staying 2 nights. They brought 12 bottles of my MIL's favorite wine, which neither DH nor I drink. They also brought every food gift they were given for the holidays and have sat around all afternoon snacking on the cookies and candies they brought.
My nephew mentioned they are learning about Islam in school and I didn't hear him, so I asked him to repeat himself. My MIL: "He said they're learning about Islam, the terrorists."
