I had my son when I was 26 and people who know me (my sister who is six years older than me) thought I was doing my 20s wrong, though she does adore my son. (She also said the same thing when I got married at 23.) Congrats!

I concur. I was 26 when my son was born. My sister is six years older than me and thought I was insane. I'm one of the youngest people in the group of moms I hang out with.
Not to be That Person, but if we're referring to the Nobel Peace Prize, that would be awarded in Oslo, Norway by the Norwegian Nobel Committee.
Oh please chill the fuck out, I'm not trying to start a flame war. I know we're talking about two entirely different things. It's been years since I've seen it, but from what I remember, these two dudes thought they had some sort of mandate from God to kill the bad people, right? So do terrorists. I get that it's…
The acts themselves are different; the mindsets are similar, and that's what freaks me out.
oh my god I fucking hated that movie. And frankly found it disturbing. I tried to explain to my boyfriend at the time that the terrorists that slammed planes into the World Trade Center ALSO thought they were on a mission from heaven, what made these dicks so different? He didn't get it.
This. So much this. All of this. Whenever my husband refers to my "diet" I am very quick to correct him. I am not dieting. I am being much more careful and conscious about what I am eating and when.
Never too late! My mom and I are both losing weight now; I did it during and after a pregnancy. I'm down 40ish pounds, I don't know how much my mom is down now but I know it's at least 20. I'm 27, she's 54.
Agreed. I, too, curse like a sailor... when my kid is in bed. My mom hasn't learned to stop cursing in front of him and it bugs the bajeezus out of me.
Is today Obvious News Day?
Ah I was just posting to Lindy, I tried the white chocolate peppermint Pringles when they came out last year and they were so good!.... to an 8 months pregnant woman!
I tried those white chocolate peppermint Pringles that came out with their seasonal promotions last year, and goddamn if they weren't the best thing I'd ever tasted. I was also 8 months pregnant, that may have something to do with it. Still! If they do them again and people scoff, scoff right back at them and…
Word. We have a 9-month-old and for us it's a time issue. He knows that if he helps me out by giving the kid a bath or doing the dishes, I'm a lot more willing to have sex than if I have to give the kid a bath, then do dishes, then make bottles, etc.
This still happens with kids who are born with problems. My brother was baptized shortly after birth before he had to have emergency surgery. (He was/is just fine.)
My Catholic cousin didn't have her baby baptized until he was around 10 months old because she was busy planning/having her wedding.
And I shall never leave the house again.
The really weird part is when being pregnant does feel like the norm. Then the kid gets here and you have phantom kicks for weeks and gas bubbles make you nostalgic.
Calmed down enough to put my kid to bed. Came back because someone recommended my post. Still funny. Laughed some more.
can't. stop. laughing.
Really, don't marry a nincompoop is stellar advice for many aspects of life. I frequently wonder how one of my cousins is raising two kids with a nincompoop for a husband.
