"The Joys Of Mommyhood"
"What is the one thing you miss doing before having a Baby?
I miss using the bathroom in peace.
Sorry Mommy isn't going to put you on my lap while I pee. Just isn't going to happen."

Nice, right? Here is what I left as a comment:
"I'd let my Harrison sit on my shoulders while I pee, if he had survived the pregnancy. "
(I am still the only commenter too)
Holly, I love your ability to get right to the point....and really?? I don't have human children yet, but my fur babies follow me into the bathroom and one of them consistently tries to get in my lap... Why would it be any different if my children were human....stupid fertiles!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, my beagle sits right in front of me.
ReplyDeleteI don't think anyone can follow that comment! It really gets me when people make these stupid complaints. My dogs watch me pee, should I complain about it? I especially love when I see the "Anyone want my kid? Free to a good home! I can't take him anymore"... Next time I am just going to say "Yes, please! I'll draw up the adoption papers" and see what happens!
ReplyDeleteI'd gladly wear a catheter the rest of my life if it meant I could have my baby back.
ReplyDeleteI take my son in the bathroom with me. And the furbabies always follow. Totally part of being a mom, and utterly worth it. I will never take that for granted.
ReplyDeleteWow, good for you! Such a badass comment, I love it. (not that you lost your baby of course). Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou left an awesome comment! Kudos to you....prayers and hugs as well!
ReplyDeleteI would gladly let any child of mine visit me ANYTIME...if it meant I got to be called MOMMY and I could love my child everyday! ugh.
My furbabes follow us in to the bathroom as well, specially the cat.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to have my own child do the same.
All my animals join me in the bathroom and my boys have been on my lap while I peed (where else do you put them if you are in a restaurant bathroom changing them and need to go yourself?)... but hubby still hasn't seen me pee even after 8+ yrs together!
ReplyDeletemade me clutch my chest. You are some tough woman, Holly! My dogs and cats follow me in there, too. that woman needs to get over herself.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I just wish I could have seen it on FB!!!
ReplyDeleteSomeone had tried to post the link to the blog entry that I read this from and I want that person to know that it will not be permitted/allowed as a comment on here. We rant and rave here, but I personally think name dropping and linking like that is so tactless and rude.
ReplyDeleteKeep it anonymous please.
To the comment just in from Tanya. If you don't like to read blogs like this then don't. You are not welcome and neither is your opinion on how you think we should or shouldn't be doing things.
ReplyDeleteYou really do have NO idea and therefore your opinion doesn't register on our give-a-shit-meter.
Your comment was deleted and obviously, any of the like will never be accepted.
I just sat at a reunion with a bunch of fertile women, all with newborns or were preggo. They kept complaing, and offering up their children. So I said, okay, I'll take this one with me (the month old boy I was holding at the moment). They started to laugh at my "joke" until they actually looked at me and saw adoption papers being pulled out of my purse (it was just info, not real ones) and realized it was with no joke. They all were silent for a long time. Guess they will rethink ever doing that anymore.
ReplyDeleteThe group I was around was also fully aware of my infertility issues.
OH yes, some of them even were aware that I had lost a baby that would have been 5 months old for this reunion and first official welcome into the family.
ReplyDeleteHa my pets also climb on my lap while on the toilet. I'm used to it now.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's a military blogger. The military breeds like rabbits, I should know, I'm one of them. Except infertile so I'm an outcast.
wow. totally took the wind out of their sails! I love it.
