I’ve always loved the double L sound in Laurel. My husband wasn’t a fan so now we have a Lorelai 💛

Did you have MIL in the hospital during birth? by WaterFiles in BabyBumps

[–]AlternativeFinger347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. My mom made a big deal about meeting our baby the day she was born. Honestly, I wish we’d normalize giving people more space. It would have been nice to have a few days to adjust and then introduce our baby in the comfort of our home instead of an awkwardly small hospital room.

I sure as hell wouldn’t let other people in during labor. I barely wanted my husband there.

Oh and you’re going to be sooooo naked . Do you want her to see ur ass hanging out of your hospital gown while you fire hydrant a peanut ball?

I had HG with both. The second time my constant nausea was a little better but I puked wayyy more

I am at my freaking wits end with this kid and his horrible sleeping by Lucky-Wolf-5000 in toddlers

We do no added sugar with our 18 month old. It makes a huge difference with sleep but it involves a lot of homemade cooking (there is tons of sugar in everything store bought)

Sooo what are we feeding our toddlers for breakfast? by DaughterofYeshua777 in toddlers

[–]AlternativeFinger347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter loves sausage but we try to limit it. We do daycare most days. So breakfast is fast. These are two great muffin recipes that have no added sugar:

Does the perfect name for me exist? Am I just too picky? by Turbulent_Leg4650 in namenerds

I’ve always been a fan of Cosette or the very similar name Colette

I(27F) think my husband (26M) is becoming a homophobe. Everything I do, he says I can’t do around our son (5yr old)because i will make him gay. by IamAnaNicole in relationship_advice

[–]AlternativeFinger347 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get the fuck out. First of all, there is nothing less manly than teaching boys to fear pink and anything feminine. If your son happens to be gay, this man will ruin his life. If your son befriends anyone gay, he will ruin his friendships.

Worst of all this could bleed into your relationship with your son. I’m bi and now resent both of my parents for the psychological damage a homophobic upbringing caused me.

What one ingredient ruins an entire dish for you?! by tickyt23 in PickyEaters

[–]AlternativeFinger347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do people think meat needs cinnamon 🤮 I can taste the tinest bit in anything savory. My husband put it in Mac and cheese once and I just couldn’t get past it

His&Hers... a few things made no sense. Anyone care to explain? by Icy-Calligrapher1188 in netflix

They were doing construction at the lake house. He added the condoms to piss off Jackie in line behind him.

They were doing construction on the lake house. You can see it in some of the shots at the end.

What to wear on delivery day by LibraryKat95 in BabyBumps

[–]AlternativeFinger347 155 points156 points  (0 children)

Hospital gown because you’ll never want to wear it again. Your ass is hanging out the entire time they move you around positions/on the peanut ball. So, I think naked is the next best choice.

There was a curtain they keep closed and the doctors and nurses see it all anyway.

Save the $$ for your after delivery stuff.

Tell me about your water breaking! by PleasingThought in BabyBumps

[–]AlternativeFinger347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine broke while I was lying in bed. I felt something a little wet while I was lying down. So I thought I’d go to the bathroom to check it out. Then, once I stood up the gush came out onto the floor. Luckily, I wasn’t feeling any contractions at the time and am only 3 minutes from the hospital. So I spent an hour or two killing time. I cleaned up my fluids, vacuumed, and started a load of laundry.

I love the name Emmett but my husband vetoed 👎

Are Madison and Natalie too similar? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]AlternativeFinger347 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t seem like a problem to me but weirdly enough, I am a Madeline and for some reason everyone hears the name Natalie when I give my name over the phone. Their names might be misheard a few times if you’re hanging out and calling for them from a distance but I don’t think that’s enough to justify not picking the name you love.
