Eh, whatever. I had a shitty last name and now I have a good one.

Was it yellow? That shit will make you see Jesus!

Yay! Puppies make us forget!

Don't read the comments don't read the comments don't read the...shit.

I would not be at all concerned about the UV aspect of it. The removal process, on the other hand....

It's amazing how you can't possibly love your baby as much as random strangers on a message board!

Yep. And the best bit is, there are different changes with different pregnancies. #1, I gained a ton of weight, my feet and hands got permanently bigger, but my bottom half didn't change at all - once I lost the weight I could wear my old pants. #2, gained hardly anything, feet and hands stayed the same, but my hips…

Occam's razor and all, you know.

I hear it happens, I've just never seen it personally, is all I'm saying. And I've seen a lot of boob sharks in the past few years.

K, so, Snooki lost twenty pounds right after having the baby due to breastfeeding? Wouldn't a more likely explanation be that a baby and placenta and all weigh about...fourteen pounds?

Perhaps not, but typically I think they do have to be liberal to qualify.

Mom-on-mom crime is the worst. I soothe myself by reading Sanctimommy.

You successfully sleep trained? That's amazing. Everyone I know who has tried it has not been able to make it work, because we're all weenies. Um, me included.

I had one of each. I would sooner poop out a dozen babies than have a c-section again. I had to have the c after many, many unproductive hours of labor, so my body was totally worn out, and recovery was hell. It was months before I could get up and down off the floor like a normal person. With the VBAC, it was…

There are some comments below about the couple having to shell out the cash because they wanted a white infant. Leaving aside the fact that we don't know that that's true - adopting nonwhite babies ain't cheap either, trust - why are we assuming the baby is white? Baby could well be Hispanic, or even black - babies'…

Me too. I used to take my lunch to my car to bask in the aloneness.

Yep. I was at their very last Gilman show (hipster cred!) and a show in my hometown with like 100 people and an entry fee of $2 (even more hipstery!). I do think it's really funny that before signing a major label deal they were normal jeans-and-tshirt guys and afterwards it was all punk clothes! punk hair! punk…

I feel super old now! And there's nothing wrong with assembly-line tunes, really, if they didn't exist, what would we work out to at the gym?

I have a little leftover nostalgia for Green Day, having seen them play tiny shows in the late 80s and early 90s, and Kerplunk was the soundtrack to the summer after my junior year of high school. But they have sucked ever since.

One of shortlist names for Boy #2 was Asa, with the possible nickname of Ace. I still think it's adorable...as a nickname. (He ended up being August with the nickname of Gus, which is better I think.)
