my new sn: meg

It's me, Megan. Last night was really rough for dh and I. I posted about it on the July 2013 board on the bump and had 35 people comment on how I am a bad mother and train wreck. I still want to post over there in some boards, but thought it best to change my sn. I will use it here too. It is rubyn13 in honor of Abby.

Thanks to all of you for being so kind no matter what I post. You are wonderful!

  • HAHA I just put it all together. I am over here thinking its a new person.  

    What happened last night?
    Abby was colicy because we ran out of gripe water and forgot to get it at target. I called bil to help, but dh got up to help me instead. I ran out at 2am to get her gripe water while dh watched Abby. He didn't get enough sleep and called out today. There is way more than I wrote there, but I learned my lesson in posting tmi. 

    Everyone is fine now :)

  • Meg- I read through the posts.  While some of them were really snotty, it seemed that a lot of them wanted to help you.  I don't have children yet, but I can imagine that you need all the support in the world, even if its from internet strangers.  I hope that you will continue to ignore the snotty ones and lean on the ones that seem genuine. And we'll always be here.
  • @jjbmstinco thank you! I will always post here in jan 12. You are all very sincere.

  • Being a mom is hard work, please don't let people that don't know the whole situation get to you. I totally understand that sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. Just make sure that you are doing what is safe for you and your baby.

    As far as everyone saying your DH should have gone to work on 3 hours of sleep...they are smoking something! If I only had 3 hours of sleep (which has happened in the past) you bet your butt I would be calling in to work! Why would I go to work, be cranky, do a half a** job and possibly risk falling asleep on the road? Sometimes staying home is the smarter thing to do!

    If you ever need to talk or maybe need some suggestions on what may help with the baby please feel free to find me on facebook. I have it on my phone so I can get messages instantly... I even check my phone during middle of the night feedings.

    Hang in there because it does get better.

  • Glad you still stuck around and are hanging with us. We love you Meg!

  • I can't believe that they would do that! That is insane! I think what you did was reasonable. You are always welcome here!
