#3 REALLY?!

My thoughts were all over the place, so I went with it. This week is a mash-up of some of the "stuff" I have encountered during my first five weeks postpartum. Bare with me as I cleanse my "Drafts".

A few random things:
  1. I considered hurting my hubby because he was asleep. He was sleeping so good and snoring so loudly, I was jealous. I wanted that sleep and I was upset that he had the nerve to think it was okay to do it in front of me. I had to remind myself that he had worked a 10-12 hour shift and deserved his sleep.
  2. I can't stand him. My hubby must always overachieve when he is at home with our bundle. He has to not only care for the lil' one, but cook, clean and change his truck's oil with the bundle strapped to his chest, not really on that last one, but he would if he could (CP, that was for you). He's pretty awesome! 
  3. Beware of congratulations! During my first two weeks postpartum, I had two women congratulate me! I was excited, then confused. How did they know I had a baby, he wasn't with me? Oh wait! They mean congrats on my pregnancy! Really?! After losing 24 pounds, I still look pregnant. This mess just ain't right! PSA, women and men alike: NEVER congratulate a woman on her pregnancy unless she just told you, she was pregnant. You can thank me later! 
  4. A&D ointment is for tattoos. AND babies?! My mama shook her head at our tube of Destin for diaper rash. She highly suggested A&D ointment for babies. I thought it was for tattoos. This was true, but it was also used for the prevention of diaper rash. Go figure! Don't judge me! In my defense, my only interaction with this product had to do with fresh tattoos. By the way, it's nothing short of amazing!
