Re: UOs

  • No UOs today?

    Here is mine...

    I LOVE Valentine's Day :) I love hearts on everything and doing something sweet for those you love. I cannot wait to get more into it with Ava Nichol and bake heart shaped cookies and decorate the house!

    @wiggyslilsis, I also love Valentine's Day! I love doing special things for the ones I love. I can't wait until DD is older.
  • I cannot wait for Ava Nichol to decide she wants her ears pierced. I am encouraging it already :) she still says no right now but I amhoping by 3 she will wwant it done. DH and I agreed that she would get her ears pierced when she wanted to. I just know thatiI have two piercings in each ear and the ones I got when I was three are not sensitive at all and never close up. The ones I got at 14 are super sensitive and close up if I go too long without wearing earrings.

  • I'm neutral on piercing baby's ears. I decided I will wait for C to ask, but I don't fault others who pierce them. I'm just always scared they will grow crooked.

  • I understand the whole waiting for the children to ask for it or for them to decide but dh and I decided to pierce them when she was little and we are very happy with our decision. I just dislike when people judge others for their decision about ear piercing. It was a tough decision to do but we chose to pierce them and we are very happy that we did it.

    I hope you don't think I aimed my UO at you. For some reason, it's just what came to mind. It's not something I agree with doing, but I don't sit and judge people for choosing it. It's their kid, after all. I don't judge parents for making choices for their kids that might be different than those I might make, even if it's not a choice I'd agree with. Everyone does their own things, and that's what makes this world diverse.

  • I judge socks...unless the kid is old enough to choose, then they can wear underwear on their head, I like to see kids express themselves. 

    I wouldn't pierce my daughters ears, but I fault no one for doing it. I never thought of what happened to BFF's niece until it happened. 

    I don't know if this would be an UO, but I don't like when people decide to call a baby while pregnant a boy or girl before knowing. I also don't like "it." I prefer nicknames or just say baby.

    What makes me crazy are these people who refuse to circumcise their sons saying it is their body, their choice, etc but go pierce their daughter's ears as soon as possible. (I've heard/seen this happen.) I try not to be judgy judgy but this gets me every time.

    I think it's fine for babies to be in pj's all day.

    The horror! Lol ;)

    Seriously though, it drives me nuts to have A in pjs all day. Idk why, but I like getting her dressed in daytime clothes. You can probably blame my OCD.

    Having said that, I don't care what others dress their kids in.

  • @greenbeanqueen One of my ear piercings is slightly crooked. Is that from ear growth? I always figured they just did it that way by accident.

  • Argghhh!!! I had everything typed out and the nest logged me out so it's all gone now and it was long. Anyway, all I said was that @luckyangel07, I know you didn't mean it towards me I just saw your UO and thought of my UO lol. I hope no harsh feelings though. We all have different views on everything and I like that.

    @greenbeanqueen, I know what you mean. Circumcision can be such a tough subject to talk about but I would do it if I ever have a boy. Also, if what @sgautschi said is true that is very interesting i had never thought about ear growth causing the piercing to become crooked. Now I'm going to go stare at mine. Lol.
  • I sometimes keep DD in PJ'S too. If we aren't going anywhere for the day she might just stay in PJ'S but I always have something to do so she usually gets dressed..

    I have another UO. I hate feet. Not baby feet but adult feet. I hate when DH wants to rub his feet against me while in bed and I hate touching his feet and I just hate anything about feet.
  • Ear piercing: Lexi's ears are pierced. She's had them pierced since she was 10 months old. I've had mine pierced since I was a month old. My ear holes did not grow crooked. With that being said, I would never judge anyone who does/does not get their ears pierced.

    The circumcision: This is such a touchy, uncomfortable subject. I know people who are both circumcised and uncircumcised. If it ever comes to this, I will circumcise my child, but that's a choice me and DH talked extensively about. What I hate the most is when its a constant conversation about how awful it is to do it, you have no right, it's not your choice, etc etc. Just leave it alone and have your choice, and let other parents have theirs.

    Eww I hate feet too!  I don't even like having to touch my own.  I also don't like other people's socks after they have been worn and they just gross me out lol.
