Is it flame worthy that I already have a girl so I'm kind of hoping I have another because I saved all DDs clothes and wouldn't have to do/buy anything? It feels flame-y. What? No. The only thing I'm gonna flame is if someone wishes they could send the kid back because of gender.

This was a large part of the reason I wanted and was excited to have another girl. I bought way too much for my first so I'm happy to at least use them a second time.

So we just found out that family friends lean towards anti-vaccine ideas. They just had their first baby, declined the vitamin K, and are iffy on vaccines/the normal schedule. I’m very wtf on this and can’t decide if I’m having a knee jerk reaction to this. Thankfully they aren’t local but we do attend family events together.

Fingers crossed you don't have to attend any family events with them until your family is all vaxxed, and that no one else at those events is immunocompromised. Or, you know, anyone else who they interact with.

I am so stressed out and upset about the shoe picture floating around the internet. Like, irrationally so.

Leaf 🌱, its not a knee jerk reaction. Its a big effing deal that would compromise the safety of your child or any other immunocompromised family members. Easier said than done I know, but you would be very justified in setting boundaries about family gatherings going forward, and I would hope that your family would support you.

AS went well! The doctor wasn’t there yet to check over everything, but the tech said everything looked good! I am so amazed at how much detail we could see. Science, man! Bones, heart chambers, the brain?! Crazy, but so so awesome. And the tiny little nose had me in a puddle. Now I just have an envelope on my kitchen table staring at me wherever I go and begging me to open it. 3 more weeks.

Leaf 🌱 I don't think it's just a knee-jerk reaction. Vaccines are the one thing I will judge the heck out of parents on, especially something as mild but potentially lifesaving as the vitamin k shot?? I still side-eye but a smidge less so if parents decide to do a slightly delayed schedule. I guess it's better than nothing?

They'll be at that birthday party? Oops we aren't feeling well.

ArielMermaid I feel the same way. If we are having a boy I’m going to have some serious adjusting to do. I already feel bad saying that.

Most other pictures it looks white and pink. I don't get how different people can see two colors from one pic.

I just had a visceral reaction to them declining the Vitamin K shot. I just can't. Do they have any clue what that is for or did they just decline everything because vaccines!!!!

So anatomy scan update... My baby is the least cooperative ever. And I am starting to feel like the tech just didn't want to try that hard to find things because she didn't really have me move around or go pee or drink stuff or whatever. Maybe I am just letting myself get annoyed over nothing.
I am happy to say that there is a beating heart in there... And a brain. But the baby was so curled up that we really didn't even see very much. The tech probably spent 20 minutes trying to look and then told me they would bring me back in 4 weeks to try again. Not sad I get another US but I would have really liked to know that everything was growing like it should be.
My baby is super lazy, I have felt so little movement and every US we have gone to babe has been super content to just be curled up. I feel like this shouldn't make me anxious but it does!
I will admit to a secret though... Why I have kept it a secret on here I don't really know... I just haven't come in and said so. We had an US at 16 weeks purely because my anxiety was skyrocketing and I just needed to see the baby. I could have cared less about finding out the sex at that point but hey, they looked so I was going to find out. They told us it's a girl!! I am still wrapping my head around getting a live healthy baby so it is hard for me to even say how I feel about the news. I don't know why I was counting so hard on the anatomy scan to just confirm what we were told last month so it kind of stinks that we didn't get confirmation today. We are planning on telling family next week and now I am waffling because it's not been confirmed. Which I know logically is probably silly but I think I am terribly broken.

I feel like I know that at 16 weeks it's pretty accurate... I have pictures! I don't know why I still feel like I need it to be confirmed!!

I was in team girl just so I could re-use stuff or use new stuff that kiddo out grew before we could use them. Alas, not to be the case. And I still can't make myself purge her stuff, knowing we are team blue this time.

Oh my gosh, mom of the year over here. I was in Target with DS earlier, and he suddenly started saying, loudly and repeatedly, "Mommy, watch dirty show! Watch dirty show!" I felt soooo many side-eyes. So for all the Judgey McJudgerson's benefits, I said loudly, "Oh, you want to watch your cartoon, The Stinky and Dirty Show, with the trucks?"
Toddlers, man. Also, thanks for that TV show name, Amazon.

DD woke up MOTN with a fire poop and I’m the worst mom (with a very stuffy nose) bc I tried to just cuddle her and convince her to go back to sleep. Obviously it didn’t work, I realized my mistake and changed her, and now we’ve been watching MMCH since 430. Yayyyyyy.
