Last week I was diagnosed with PND, my SO has been so supportive and now understands I don't mean to be a moody batch. He's also started helping more with DS :) I'm on antidepressant now and I'm starting to feel a lot better, try my best to get out the house every day even if it's just for a short walk.

I just found out I'm going to be an Aunty ! Yaaaay ! My brothers girlfriend is pregnant and she's due on my sons 2nd birthday ????

I had a wonderful day at the zoo, with my little ones and my husband ??

I saw another person's shat.

I made it to my halfway mark in my pregnancy if that counts!

I did yard work today & it's in the 70s☀️☀️☀️??

I went grocery shopping today and my husband did his honey do list FINALLY

It's a beautiful day and all my kids and Hubby are happy and healthy!

People who use this post to say something negative are just miserable human beings.

I agree. Ppl fail to realize not everyone has the same beliefs .

But anyways...

Yes i am enjoying the sun. & i just landed on a job offering me more benefits ??

It was my dads 60th so we had a surprise party for him at a local Mexican place, and then went and saw the jungle book. Good movie btw.

My son always says maaaaaaaaaam and today he said dadad... Probably just that he's just throwing sounds together considering he's not even 8 months yet.. But it made me so happy because he said it when he was reaching for his dad, and it made his dad so happy. It makes me happy to see them bond, and watch my son grow and learn new things! He's been crawling, but occasionally slips.. Lately he's been crawling like a pro and sitting up from a crawling position. It's so bittersweet! I love watching him grow, but hate that it's happening so fast!

Also, we went to the park for the first time yesterday since it's starting to warm up, and his dad took him down the slide and on the swings, LO loved it! I was so happy. Then I seen an older man across the park staring at me. He eventually got up and walked passed me and said to cherish it because before I could blink, he'd be grown up and playing on the swings himself. I knew it would happen fast, but hearing it from an older gentleman who had grown kids and grown grandchildren, really made it more of a reality.

Sorry for the long comment, I had a lot to rave about!

Had a jam packed day of showing houses in a rural area with no cell reception yesterday. Literally no time to pee or eat in between appointments. My husband manned the phone at home, took messages, and then surprised me on the road while I was driving from one appointment to another to give me a homemade sandwich and bottled water. I would have never made it through the day without him and I am so grateful for his thoughtful help.

I bought a stroller yesterday and went for a nice walk with DD while DF fished? it's also going to be in the 70's this week so I got the stroller at the perfect time!

We went up to New York (sunny side queens to be exact) yesterday to celebrate my nieces 2nd bday and see my sister and brother in laws new place (just moved from Brooklyn). We had a beautiful day at the park for her party. And got to visit with my sis which I love. But my son got car sick a few times throughout the ride. 3 hour drive. But all in all it was a good day

I've been up all night with insomnia, up for work at 5am, thrown up constantly since I arrived (It's now 2:30pm)

But...... Heard my babies heartbeat for the first time last night and my colleagues at work basically carried me today ????? Good times. X

Didn't scream at my husband in front of our baby this morning when he tried arguing for the 100th time in 12 years over the in laws... Despite saying, again for the 100th time, that it was all sorted. So fed up of that s*** ?

My son is two weeks old tomorrow! This is such an amazing time in my life. I'm cherishing and enjoying every single moment, even the sleep deprivation ?❤️ omg I'm so in love with my baby.

We rotated our bedroom and it's more spacious and looks great. I'm coping better. DH and I have been in the gym since January and are feeling better health wise. I fit one of my old jeans since losing weight. I got a new car.

We just got approved for our first place! A 2 bedroom town home & we get to move in the 28th!!!

Wow, so much wonderful positives from ya'll! ??

We just got ourselves a new king sized bed set with cabinets! ??

My son played his very first Tball game and did wonderful!

I'm officially 20 weeks with #4 (2 are our angels)!! So that is huge for us!!

Money is tight but I am truly blessed to have a wonderful husband who works extremely hard for us!!

I am having a date night. And NO child tagging along. I love our daughter but sometimes this mama needs a break.

My baby girl is getting better with sharing, I finally have an awesome friend in the new state I live in! Hubbys commission on top of his hourly is looking great specially with it being 1900 in commission alone in July! We're gonna be ahead of our bills be able to fix the car and since we'll be ahead in bills we'll be able to get our winter tires on sale still ??

Oh and I'm in my fertility window so if we conceive we'll also be able to afford our home birth due to our insurance being able to cover some of it ??

Its finally warm here too and we were outside all day ??

My husband took all three of my little ones to several different parks today. I was alone in my house for THREE HOURS!! Blissful.

Im on a road trip with my husband and his side of the family, we traveled to SC to go to his friends BBQ and visit his sisters who live down here . We're all having an absolute blast and its great any time we travel together. Its a much needed getaway and I'm so grateful and happy right now.?

My preemie twins weighed in over 9 pounds each this week at the pediatrician's office! They were born 9 weeks ago only weighing 5 pounds!

My daughter took her first steps today and also spoke her first word!

Tried a new recipe for dinner and it was super tasty. Thankful for the house we live in, the food in our cabinets, and my two beautiful babies.

I also took my dog on a walk today. It was very refreshing!

My son just hit his first home run at his game today!!!! ⚾️ such a proud mama moment!!!

Congrats!!!!

I am officially on maternity leave. And my SO took our son to the park this morning so I got to sleep in an extra hour. Very thankful. Lol

I got a new job, my babies started a new daycare and I move into the house that I will now own in a week!!! God has blessed me so much this year already! I pray that you all receive his blessing also!!

Our tax return was $5,000 more than we thought it would be.

I got a new car!

My son's taking a nap now I can relax

I had Mid-terms this week so it started off a little rough BUT, hard work pays off! (I'm a full time college student)

I'm a Mom of 4 (ages 13, 6, & 9mth old twins). I currently have a 3.7 GPA and I'm so proud of myself. I've had many sleepless nights but, I wouldn't take it back for anything.

*My family is also healthy and happy. To me, that is what truly matters the most. ?

God bless you ALL! ?? I wish all of you the best and all the happiness this world can give you.

It's not snowing today ?

I trimmed my vagina the other day using my bathroom mirror because my 34 week belly didn't allow me to see it! I did a pretty spiffy job!!! ??

I made 20 weeks this week with baby #1 and me & oh will be signing the lease for our new apartment next week WooHoo!!!

We got approved for the apartment that was our #1 choice and my husband landed a new job that will triple our income! ?

We're buying a home and we get to move in on 5 days ?

I went shopping with my mom and dd2 this morning and i finally got new glasses. Even though SO has to work all weekend it's all overtime so Friday's paycheck will be a nice one :)

It's also super nice out today and we're going to my parents for dinner later.

Our legal process for residency is starting to pick up,vacay also begins tommorow night?

Df got a promotion, which is a $2 raise.

I started my new PCA job.

And we finally got a new car, which is a bad a** racer turned passenger.

Also, we had amazing 65-70° weather!!!

It's the weekend which means no work ????

Dh made it home safe from work. My kiddos woke up happy & healthy. I got my toes done yesterday & they look super cute.?

My son is progressing in the NICU and I get to visit him later and try breastfeeding. Seeing him makes my day

I planted some seeds (beans peas cucumber) and they are actually growing!! For the first time I'm starting a garden so that we will have fresh veggies!

We just finished the CrossFit Open a few weeks ago and this is my first year doing CrossFit and I made it on the wait list to join our local games competition ? I mean I probably won't get to compete lol but I'm pretty proud to have made it to the wait list, especially since I've only done CrossFit since the end of September!

Exactly I wanted to hear more raves lol! Life is good and we are all on this app because we have beautiful kiddos to be thankful for! Just sayin ??

Maybe op wants to see some raves. Obviously it's "rants and raves". Ffs. ?

This is the rants and raves group. People come here to vent their negativity. That's the whole Point.

It's called rants and raves for a reason...just sayin

SO finally got a good job this week making $600 a week instead of $300. It might not seem like much but it's a big difference for us and it'll get us back on our feet! We are all caught up on bills and have enough to pay in $700 towards taxes Monday. ??

And we'll be house shopping soon. I'm excited.

I'm happy, healthy, and have a wonderful husband that does chores around the house. Life is good!

Day before easter Sunday dh came home with a new 2015 toyota corolla for me! By August I will have all the required courses I need to enter the Respiratory Therapist program! We are all happy and healthy!

My DH runs his own business. We just found out that he doubled the profit from last year. He's a superstar!

My friend just had her baby at 37 weeks because of pre-e and she's healthy and perfect!

It's 5:30 here, and I just got up to pee for the third time tonight. Usually it's 5-6 times. So that's cool. Also not the burning pit of lava that has become my norm (oh the heartburn, furnace-like skin, boob sweat, human kicking me in my organs and ribs, cuddly husband, fan not freaking blowing hard enough...)

I got a beautiful matching couch and loveseat today! Can't wait for it to be delivered so I don't have to sit on the floor anymore. Woohoo

I'm sick but I'm not dead yet. ?

I'm alive and my family is healthy! ??

The only (and first ever) female director-general of my organisation had a 15 min talk with me yesterday inviting me to apply for a vacant job in her directorate (justice and home affairs). I'm feeling super honoured!!!

AND when I told her I am 6 weeks pregnant but hadn't told anyone yet she said it won't make a difference for my application.

Female solidarity ❤️

I am having such a blast watching my dd (age 15) love on her new baby brother. She is completely enamored with him! I'm thrilled because she wasn't really happy that I got pregnant and I was expecting lots of jealousy.

After my husbands done in AIT I have to move and I found out the hospital on base allows VBACS so that made my whole day!

I hit 30 weeks with my first baby! ? I'm extremely excited and nervous!

My house didn't burn down or nothin.. That's always good.

My bank returned the $700 they accidentally took from my savings that I had finally just started.

I lost 5lbs last week and I have been eating more healthy foods.

I didn't cry this week! It's cliche but my depression has been deep with current life struggles.

I got out today .. all day was shopping, food and fun! Also I shaved my legs ... and i had a goo night sleep last night. Doesn't get better than that ?

B, I'm so happy to hear all your good news!!!

My husband just got a promotion that will give him a quarterly bonus and weekends off! ??

Lgt, Mona, Iris, I can not tell if you're joking, but I laughed, I'm sorry. ? planning on getting married either next fall or next summer. ????

It was a half truth ?

Stop calling me out!! ???

Oh Iris for sure isn't kidding

These positive comments are not as fun as the negative ones..

I'm kidding.

My husband is getting an awesome bonus on the 20th and we are buying new furniture! I'm super excited and can't wait. I love anything interior decorating!

I made some delicious chicken fajitas for dinner. I was craving them so bad. Now I'm waiting for DD to go to sleep so I can enjoy my milkshake by myself. ??

I found out that my PTO has been miscalculated since October. I have 19 hours more than I thought I did. I'm saving up for our family vacation this summer.

Shhhhhh. Lgt. Don't make it weird. ??

I just ate pizza and donuts for dinner. And strawberries and cream.

And DD is spending the weekend with her godmother so me and SO have the whole weekend to ourselves ♥️

My husband and I are both taking leave to see each other in two weeks!

We are going to big bear tomorrow with friends! Even though I'm 27 weeks it'll be so fun watching my husband have fun with his friends until we have to move in less than a month ?

"We need counseling" ??

I can't with you two

I fit into junior size m/l yoga pants. I initially tried on the xl/xxl because they were juniors and ended up being pleasantly surprised. Guess those donkey kicks and fire hydrants are working after all!

....she started it. ?

We need counseling. There are too many hows interfering in our relationship.

Today was the first full week of potty training and my son only had 3 accidents all week long.

I'm watching LGT soak in the tub through her window. ??

I finished transferring all licensing and registrations at the DMV after 4 visits over a month totaling 10hrs. I am so glad to not have to go back anytime soon, or get up on my Saturday morning to be there at the crack of sparrow fart ?

The nurses and doctors at the hospital have been amazing with ds. He's here for a couple of days due to a virus. They're all very responsive and caring.

I have chocolate milk!!

I posted earlier and got nothing but positive feedback. ? I love my supportive R&R batches. ?

I get to go shopping this weekend.. ??

I also successfully farted and blamed it on the dog...score!

I get to spend the weekend with dh I'm so excited!! He's worked 10 days straight so it's well worth it and I got cleared by my high risk Dr to do the deed again ?????????????????? really happy about that it's been toooo long Lol

-kimmy Schmidt season 2 started and it's not an amazing show but so many good one liners

-I usually work weekend nights but I have all weekend off!

-boyfriend is busy tonight, roommate is gone..

I HAVE THE APARTMENT TO MYSELF AND I'M ALONE WATCHING DUMB TV!!!! ??

My LO has finally started taking some steps. Getting close to taking off running ??

My SO got a new job that pays sooo much better, he starts the week after next and we are both so excited.

I also shaved my legs the other day, you have no idea how big of an accomplishment that is these days ?

I've been alone all day with a cranky baby with a double ear infection while I have a kidney stone trying to pass and I didn't cry one time. I'm pretty proud of myself.

Im on vacation visiting friends and family till next Thursday

I am currently relaxing with my two doggies!
