How 'bout a FFFC?
Oh, and hai! it's been way too long since I have been around...
I am having a contest on my fb fan page, and I am secretly hoping and praying that one of the contestants doesn't win bec the family member that entered him/her that I would have to deal with gives a batshitcrazy a whole new meaning.
I miss having a newborn and being pregnant. but I'm so okay with waiting a couple more years.
I judge my mamma for this new "hit your mid-life crisis and party-hardy" lifestyle she has developed. She goes to live after 5 almost every week with all her single friends. Tonight she is going to superior with a big group of singles and married w/o kids, and I am totally judging. She should be home helping plan birthday parties & baking halloween cookies with her granddaughter instead of running footloose and fancy free.
I am damn proud of breastfeeding for a whole farking year, but I will not make any mention of it other than right here, because if I was a formula feeding mamma I would want to punch me in the ta-ta's for it seeming like I was rubbing it in. I swear I'm not, I am just proud of myself for sticking with it!
Re: How 'bout a FFFC?
my in-laws aren't coming to J & S's party, and i want to tell them that if they miss this one, they should just plan on missing all of them. they work the LSU games for extra casino money, and won't skip out on this one game to be at their party.
and i have baby fever. BAD. but can't do anything about it because we can't afford another child, even if by some miracle we got pregnant on our own.
hey I was a formula feeding mommy but not by choice (meds) but I did attempt it in the beginning before I got put on medication and it was TOUGH, so I give you major props for sticking with it a year!
I have major baby fever, even though I can't have any more myself. We've been contacted as potential adoptive parents (we know people in common) for a child that will be born in May, so we're in the information gathering stage on that. I'm just so scared that we're gonna get our hearts broken. It's a 16 year old girl that is pregnant for the SECOND time, and her mom is already raising the first child and says she can't do it again. We REALLY want to do it, but I'm so scared that they're going to back out. Not only would James and I be devastated, but Elise LOVES babies so I'd hate if we had it for a while and they wanted it back or something....I ramble, but anyway...that's what's going on with us!
This is legal advice. Circa 2011
People who have no children and yet make judgments about the way others parent makes me all sorts of stabby. I hope the view is nice from that high horse up there.
I openly admit that I used to be one of these people and I wish I could apologize profusely to every parent that I ever made a judgment about.
Sometimes I think I have PPD. But I can't tell the difference between that and just being overwhelmed & stressed. And I'm too scared to even go there so I just chalk it up to stress.
