My kids are at the stage now where they close the door when they go to the jacks, I'm always trying to follow them in to have a poop snoop and they go mental at me.

In fairness BB the 27-year-old probably has a point! :pac:

People who don't know how to shop at Lidl and Aldi. Particularly the ones who insist on packing their bags at the checkout.

Normal poo = healthy child.
Off color, or bad consistency poo = possible sick child.

You will make a pants mum!

You need to marry a really rich man so you can 'outsource' all the yucky bits.
But of course you still need to carry and deliver the little Lexie.

You know what annoys me? Twice a day when I brush my teeth I get annoyed. I brush my tongue, and no matter what way I stick my tongue, I always end up retching, and my mouth doesn't feel clean until it's brushed properly, so I gag like hell, to the point where I feel proper queasy. I wouldn't mind but I used to pride myself on having amazing gag reflex

My TA is some other mothers. It's like a bloody competition with them with their kids. Who walks /talks first. Who is a savage little eater. Who is out of nappies first. They can be so judgemental too. I honestly don't give a sh1t how others parent their children, as far as I'm concerned we are all trying to do our best for our kids, and whatever gets you through etc.

Similar-ish, worked with a guy once who, if you said you stubbed your toe, he had broken his leg, in three places.

Everything was a competition, the simplest thing anyone said, would set him off.
I remember listening(or pretending to listen) while he told us about how long it took to find the right curtains for their sitting room, and as for them choosing any furniture, oh jebus...that would be a saga that could run on for months.

I honestly don't give a sh1t how others parent their children, as far as I'm concerned we are all trying to do our best for our kids, and whatever gets you through etc. I have been burned in the past with a couple of other women thinking that their child's sh1t didn't stink, and it's probably why I don't have a close friend who is a mother. My best friend has no kids. It TA's me at times, as it would be nice to talk to another mother without getting the feeling that she was delighting in something you were finding tough.

Don't worry, it's all just a novelty. They will get bored of them soon enough when they realise how thoroughly average they all are. My ex-friend was one of these and then she decided she wanted another. I said to her, "why? You already have one" and she replied, "yeah but now he's not a baby anymore, like, he became a kid".

I became a poop inspector when I got my dog My parents think I'm batty. I'm on the phone to the OH saying, "yeah she did just now...yes it was fine, not too runny...a good solid one and a little one after" Puke... But it is a very good indication of digestive health Cna only imagine what a bore I'll become if I have a kid

Waiting all morning for a phone-call from the hospital to hear news of a sick relative.

I've made sure my phone's fully charged, up full volume, brought it into every room I've gone into, incase they call. I've had my radio on low and I've double-checked I haven't missed any calls.

I needed the loo earlier and accidentally left the phone in the bedroom. I'd only sat on the loo when "RING RING! RING RING!" comes from the bedroom.
I can't stop mid-flow, so I sit there cursing both the phone and my bladder for being so needy....I'm as quick as I am, run to the bedroom, pick up the phone and they're gone.

And it was the hospital.
I've tried calling back now several times but they won't answer.
:mad:

There is an art to that though. I am like a ninja at the checkout in Lidl. Throw the stuff on the belt, open out 2 big bags in trolley, as fast as the stuff is being put through, I am firing it in the bags. Bank card in hand, pay and go. There is only a tiny ledge over by the window in our Lidl, a foot wide at best , no way you could pack a big load of shopping on it. I've never seen anyone packing anything on it.

Cat me too ! #teampackingninjas

Same as that. In fact, I pretend to be a POWER-7 processor at 8GHz, with three layers of cache, pipeline prefetch and delay-slots. I know, I know - NEEEEERRRDD!!

This is a POWER-7 machine. I don't have one of these in the lab, but I have a couple of older ones like it:
