♥~♥ SINGLE MOTHERS SUPPORT THREAD! ♥~♥

My baby lost his first tooth and I didn't even know it was loose! I brushed his teeth this morning...no signs of wiggliness. Then later on in the day I was feeding him some strawberries and I noticed he looked a little snaggle-tooth. Upon closer inspection, I noticed a hole in his gum where a front bottom tooth used to be.

What makes it worse is he didn't even get all of his baby teeth, and I been waiting on them to come in...and now he's losing the ones he has.
I'm all up in my feelings about it! :cry3::cry::cry2::crybaby:

Since he can't speak, he couldn't even tell me about it....:crying3:

I wonder if that's why he's been sucking on all his clothes and on the stroller strap. He proly swallowed the darn thing.

I don't know how much more I can take....:cry4:
:bighug:
 
1st day of spring break and I'm already losing my mind!!!! Maybe I'm still PMS-ing, but I can't stand my kid right now. I can't do anything without him making complaining noises!! I cough, he whines. I put my hands under my chin, he whines. I scrap his cereal out of the cooking container and he whines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just feel mad all of the time. I put him in his stationary stander today just to get him from under my feet for an hour. I can't walk past him without him snatching my pants leg and screaming at the top of his lungs. My feet ache, my shoulders ache, I got cramps and still have to deal with this little monster. I wish I drank. And then that lazy Fed Ex driver took my kid's new carseat to the office instead of dropping it off in front of my door per my instructions so I had to carry that heavy, bulky box back to my apartment.

And this is only day ONE. Grrr.........!

Tomorrow for my kid and I CANNOT WAIT!!!! :toocool: Gatdambit! Vacation my arse. :darkcloud:
 
I forgot to post: on the way to the kid's pt conference there was a mama who had a little boy that saw McDonald's in passing and he wanted to go. Mom had to go get his brother and that boy wasn't having it. He started screaming at the top of his lungs and gave the mama a hard time until they got off. I felt really bad for her.

Meanwhile, I gave my son that look that said "if you tried that on me..."
 
It's been almost a year since my divorce, a year and a half since he's actually been gone, and I have been feeling like I want my maiden name back. I kept his so that my son (he's 6) and I would have the same last name. He doesn't see his father often (once this year so far) so I'm always emphasizing the bond between me and him (while letting him know that his dad loves him too :( even though he can't gather the decency to even call on a regular basis).

However, as I advance in my career (which took off as soon as his arse left) I find myself resenting the fact that his name is attached to my success. Does that make sense? It's a small thing, but it irks me when I think about it (which isn't that often, but still).

I'm sure I'll keep the name because I feel like my son's experience trumps the vitriol I feel at having my accomplishments tied to his father's name. Ok...ending my rant.

Can you hyphen your last name? That way you re-gain some of your identity without (thinking you are) alienating your son.
 
My son's last name is hyphenated. My name is last, dude's name is first. His school usually goes by the last, last name, so his name kinda has a cool ring to it devil:
You could say his first and last name in three syllables<<I struggled spelling that word :lol:

I hope you find something that works Quirky.
 
Let me just say this: actors are some of the bossiest little fruckers on the planet! I had to report the (white) girl who plays Juliet, today, to the stage manager for shh-ing me twice this week. Oh no you don't, little actress! We have something like 3 weeks left of this run. She need to chill. Ppl act like when you're nice you must be weak.

Oan, BEWARE of gojane.com. Just had to file a paypal dispute against them. They will sell you shoes that are not even your size and try to force you to pay return s/h. They know they are wrong for that, but their attitude is, oh well. I bought two pair of size 9 jellies only to receive shoes that looked like Cinderella slippers trying to fit on my stepsister size feet! WTF! They try to act like their size chart is just an estimate, but paypal said UH- NO! So I'm getting my refund and keeping the shoes. I guess I'll sell them on craig's list.

Do what works for your family. If that means keeping the name so be it. No judgy.

I had to drop dudes name. Didn't need the daily reminder... well... besides the kid :lol:
 
Hey ladies!

So, DS stayed up late the other night to pull his own tooth. He was adamant about doing it himself and that night. I tried to get him to wait but, he kept tugging at it until he got it out. Unfortunately, the tooth fairy doesn't carry cash... He was so disappointed. I felt so bad.
