I actually read this on another forum and thought it was a good idea. I don't know if this has ever been done before on OB but I thought I'd give it a go. It's just a way to get rid of your guilt and have something fun to read.

I'll go first...........

 

I confess I haven't been trying hard to lose weight. I don't exercise and I don't eat that well so I can't really expect to be losing the weight but I keep my husband hoping that I will.

 

I confess that in the first few days after my DS birth that I wanted to return him to the hospital. I couldn't cope and was thinking that having him ruined my life. I LOVE HIM TO DEATH NOW AND FOREVER!!!!!!!!!! I'm so sorry I ever thought that.

 

I confess that I'm not that interested in going back to school after having been out of school for too long. I wonder if I'll ever get back at it. I hope I don't become a SAHM forever.

 

I confess I am glad my DH left so that I can have some alone time. I'm already getting sick of his cousin after he's been here for 1 day! (he'll be here for a month!)

 

OK...hope you guys will make some confessions too.

Tee Hee I have a few to add...

I confess that some days I do not one single item of house work and I still need a nap!

I confess that get so mad at my sweet wee boy over the silliest of things and afterwards laugh at myself for making such an issue over how much dinner he ate or that he wouldnt let me put on his nappy (like he hasnt pee'd on the carpet a thousand times in his 11mths!!!)

I confess that sometimes I feel like a single mother and that my DH doesnt do enough to help out on weekdays and could do more on the weekends.

I confess I spend waaaaaaaaaaay to much money online shopping but I cant seem to stop myself

O great OhBaby, boy have I got some confessions!

I confess that sometimes my daughter eats nothing but jars of food and biscuts for a day.

I confess that right now, I'd rather be a single mum so I only had one child to deal with

I confess that as much as I whinge about the baby weight, I don't really mind it unless I'm trying to find clothes that fit.

Ooh this sounds good....

I confess that at the moment I am feeling very useless at the moment, and have felt lazy about the fact I have missed so much work lately and DP has been picking up the work load at home aswell.... I wish the MS would just p**s off!!

I confess I'm scared about having this baby and whether I will be up to the job of being a mother, yet I know DP is going to be an excellent Dad!

I confess that I hate that I didn't try harder to lose weight before I got pregnant because I am now scared of what people are going to think.

Hmmm that will do for now, makes me feel a little better though.

What a great idea.

I confess that I am not coping and taking it out on my poor DH who has been a pillar of strength (finally got the courage to ring MMH - phew).

I confess that I dont want to give up dairy even though it will probably get rid of Jakes reflux (I will stop, I just dont want to).

I confess that right now I hate my body but instead of doing something about it I keep baking brownies and eating the evidence before DH gets home.

I confess that until I get myself sorted I really want DH to just take what ever crap I deal at him. (Totally unfair on him, and he shouldnt have to put up with it).

Hmm, I sound like a biarch.

good idea

i confess that the house being in the state it is really annoys me but i just dont have the energy to clean it. The lazziness outways the hate of the mess

i confess that sometimes my son really gets on my nerves - but then he smiles and i feel guilty

i confess that everytime i go to work on saturday i secretly hope that dh would have organised him and my friends to clean the house so that when i get home its immaculate.

hmmm i should really just clean the house

I confess that I am worried when the girls grow up I am going to have to find some work and I have no idea what I will do.

I confess that I don't want to get my license.

I confess I spend way too much time sitting on this damm computer.

I confess I am scared to move away from my parents.

I confess that I often wish Keira could have been more like Maddi - so easy and calm.

I confess I am a lazy cook and fry almost everything.



......Ok I better stop now or I could go on forever.

ETA. I confess I am a shocking typer

I confess that:

- if someone put adoption papers in front of me in those first couple of weeks at home, I probably would have signed them.  (LOVE her totally always though!!!)

- that I really didn't cope that well for Brooke's first 6 weeks and DH had to put up with a lot of hormonal and sleep deprived crap.

- I thought I had ruined by life when ny fully planned baby turned up.  (You sorta loose your old identity a bit).

- That I am disappointed that baby's grandparents aren't as hands-on as I thought they were going to be.

- That I complain about not having enough time to do the housework whereas in reality I spend too long in front of my computer.

- That I get grumpy when B is refusing to breastfeed while simultaneously laughing at me!

- That I don't want to go back to work but I don't want to stay at home forever either, and that I dread putting Brooke into any kind of care, even if it's only part-time.

That's enough weight off the old shoulders for now, good thread!

Thought of another one.. a biggy.

I confess that I am still grieving for the baby I lost even though I know Jake wouldn't be here if she was. I feel awfully guilty about this and worry that will affect my relationship with my beautiful boy.

I cant believe I have said that "out loud".

Aww hugs melnel - I've not gone through a miscarriage myself but one of the girls in my coffee group confessed that when her baby was playing up she often thought I bet my other baby wouldnt have been this difficult and of course she'd feel horribly guilty but it gave me an insight to the jumble of feelings that can carry on even after you are holding your beautiful baby, so I guess I'm saying is you are not alone with those kind of feelings after losing a baby - maybe talking to someone 'professionally' might help you work it through xxx

Thanks kiwikid, I have just been referred to MMH so I am sure I will get the chance to have a big ramble about my feelings. It felt good just to admit it tbh.

Nice to know I am not the only one.

Ladies, all these things you are feeling are perfectly normal, and although you think you may have done things when your babies were young when it came down to it I doubt you would have.

Threads like this are a great idea as they help get things out and they help us see that we are not alone in some of our thoughts...

Now I will take my counsellor hat off and confess...

I was supposed to be losing weight before we TTC but instead I was secretly eating everything I could

I considered falling pregnant "by accident" when DH was not keen on the idea

I want a girl because I know how much my SIL wanted a girl and never got one. (she hates me and I want to rub her face in this )

I feel having DH's child will make his family accept me more

I smoked pot towards the end of DS's pregnancy and I know he was haiving withdrawls in his first few weeks

I sit on the computer all day and say I was too tired to do housework when I know I could have got one or two things done.

Ahhh that feels better but its scary seeing it all down on paper so to speak lol.

I spend way too much time on the computer instead of doing housework, then when DP complains about the mess or something i say Brennan was taking ages to settle or didnt want to sleep.

Im too scared to make an appointment to get my root canal done and i can feel it getting worse by the day.

Sometimes i think it would be a whole lot easier being a single mother.

Date Posted: 28 June 2009 at 7:35pm
Hehe, great thread - I can relate to so many of these!

Especially the root canal - I confess that I have a broken tooth that I am secretly hoping will fall out as I am too chicken to see a dentist.

And Melnel, I confess that I resented the gremlins for being twins, and wanted the single baby that we lost coz things would have been so different, even tho now I can't imagine not having them. Pregnancy loss bites, and even now 3 years and 3 babies later it still makes me sad sometimes.

I confess that two days this week my children didn't consume a single serving of vegetables unless you count McDonalds fries (except the baby who got veg from a tin)

I confess that some days by 6pm I am counting the minutes till my kids go to bed, and some days I can't wait to go to work.

I confess that I am secretly enjoying being a SAHM while the nanny is away (if only the laundry would do itself!)

I confess that I have no idea why Willie is still here - the poor guy must be a Saint to have put up with my hormonal moods and ranting and raving and total control freak side and the way I leave my dirty clothes on the bedroom floor....

Hehe, great thread!

Hmm, I confess that i am secretly glad the mother of one of the babies I take care of during the week called to say he wouldnt be coming tommorow cause hes sick.

I confess that I really wish i hadnt of got pregnant with janaya so young. Only because I seem to think we would have no debt and have a house by now (but hey, who knows, things might have actually turned out worse if i HADNT of had her!

This thread is great, I can see most of my confessions are pretty normal!

I also confess I spend waaaay too much on the computer when I should be getting other things done!

I confess I complain about my big squishy tummy, even though I don't make enough effort to exercise.

I confess I also complain about being tired all the time, but don't go to bed early because I'm on Ohbaby and using the 10pm dreamfeed as an excuse to stay up!

I confess that I am so very tired and sick but if I don't have some alone time each day I will go nuts!

I confess that I am struggling to meet the needs of my full on toddler, easy going baby, and work and run the house and I feel guilty as someone is always missing out - there just aren't enough hours in the day! I especially feel sad that it is mostly Tane who misses out on me cos he IS so chilled - I love him with all of my heart though!

I confess that as tough as things are, I STILL think about having more babies!!!!!!

I confess that I often resent Jack for getting sick and driving his father away (even though I know deep down that DH just can't cope seeing him like that, but still it's taken a long time for him to deal with it)

I confess that with everything going on since the start of this year, I really wish I'd never become pregnant, even though I really really want my little girl. Life would just be a lot easier without being pregnant at this point in time

I confess that I've been eating too much cookie dough with raw egg in it I just can't help myself!

Haha I was just sitting here thinking about doing the exact same thing!

I confess that I sometimes think about taking up secret smoking but know that it's the one thing that would kill our relationship if I was caught

I confess that I make out like my day is so hard to my partner even though I spend on average 2-3 hours a day on the net and don't do half that things I should in a day

I confess that I am far too happy wearing my partners t.shirts during the day and I worry that I'm letting myself go

Man that feels really good to put that out there. Also good to see so many others feeling bad for the same things I feel bad about.

I confess I sometimes make out my back is really sore when its not just to get DH to give me a massage.

I confess that at 30 years old I still bite my nails and think its the most disgusting habit ever but can't seem to stop.

I confess that I do not want to go back to work, EVER, I love being at home with my girl too much but I also want to have the money to be able to go shopping

I confess that even though its been really hard having DH out of work for awhile now I have so enjoyed him being at home a lot and I am dreading him going away for work for 3 weeks

I confess that I have far too many pairs of shoes and too many handbags but always want more even though I hardly use the ones i've got.

I confess that even though I know DH really wants me to go and get my brazillian done I can't be bothered and don't want to go through the pain

I confess that some days I wonder what it would be like to have 2 Aoifes or 2 Eimears. All depends on their moods that day

I confess that some days I wish I was out at work full time.

I confess that sometimes I feel a bit jealous of the affection the girls show to their Nanny.

One of the reasons that I am happy to be on the other side of the world to my family is that I don't have to share the girls.

I confess that I spend too much time on the net and not enough time doing the housework.

I confess that 2 months after moving in we still have boxes left to unpack.

I confess that I find being a SAHM the hardest job I've ever done but also the most rewarding.

I confess that although I love this baby and I do want this baby I don't know if I'm ready to slow my lifestyle down yet. The going out the partying etc and dedicating my life to this person.

I confess that I miss my friends and social life and am jealous and angry of dp because he still goes out every Thurs albeit for only an hour or so but he has the freedom to do this!

I confess that I am scared I am going to be the sort of parent that wants to do everthing and gets annoyed when dp doesn't help

I confess that I am also scared of how dp will handle discipline and his temper with our kids.

I confess that apart from washing it and brushing it each morning I haven't done my hair properly in nearly two weeks and I'm tired and I don't care.

I confess that all I can think about at the moment is sitting down with other like minded chatterboxes and guzzling copious amounts of wine while we put the world to rights and forget about babies.

I confess that sometimes when I have to get up during the night I feel like pinching my DH on the bottom because he can stay asleep.

I confess that I had peanut M&M's for breakfast this morning and it made me soooo happy.

I confess that I want to make another baby NOW.

I confess that even though I knew DH would be a great dad I still underestimated just how great he actually is.

I confess that I have no idea how I'm going to manage not using four letter words in front of my children. My first word was a four letter word so it's a lifetime habit.

I confess I have a bunch of ecostore products, hair products, cleansers, etc, etc, stashed in a box under the spare bed so DP won't see them.

I confess I would have more money if I could stop spending so much on things that E really doesn't need right now (but she will soon or eventually!)

I confess I bought a packet of cadbury scorched almonds today "so I could check the ingrediants" but I really came home and ate the whole box in one sitting because they taste good!

I confess I dash to the bathroom at 6pm to tidy up my hair / change dirty clothes etc after looking like something the cat dragged in all day so DH doesnt think I'm a total slob.

I confess I love being a total slob on at home days.

I confess I didnt much like by little boy from 12pm to 2am last night... or the night before... or the night before that

I confess that the day DH suggests a brazillian is the day I take us both to the salon and he can go first.

I confess I have Mummy Treats in the bib drawer cos I know DH never goes in there and that way I can make my chocolate stash last all week and not be gone in one sitting.

I confess I have only washed the floors 3 times this whole year.

I too confess like Lisa that I make out my day is so hard to DH sometimes but really it isnt so bad, just long and a bit dull at times.

I confess I told my 11mth old to 'harden up' this morning when he wouldnt walk on the grass cos its too scratchy

Gosh, thanks guys for not making me feel so bad. Lots of these confessions are mine too!

I confess also that I'm a shopoholic...waaaaay too much spending on my part despite my wanting to saves pennies here and there! (I try to buy on sale, but then when you buy too much, what was the point?)

I confess I spend way to much time on the net but then when DH comes home I sometimes pretend I couldn't get things done b/c DS was crying and didn't take his nap.

Feeling better and laughing a bit at some of your confessions too.

I confess I didn't try very hard to lose weight, and now I regret it because I look at my stomach and see fat instead of baby bump. And I know it's totally self inflicted.

I confess I don't do enough work, meaning I'm not graduating when I should. This is bad because it puts all the financial burden on DH, and means he can't do what he wants to do with his life. Because I'm being a slack arse.

I confess it's nearly lunch time and I've done less than an hours work today. I need to get off the net!

I confess that even though I complain all the time about being fat I really haven't been trying that hard to do anything about it.

I confess that I still feel guilty about Gabrielle being prem, and wonder if there was anything I did to make her come early.

I confess that although I love my little girl there are some days I am glad I work as many hours as I do.

I confess that in the early weeks when Gabrielle was screaming for hours on end coz of reflux I sometimes screamed back because I was so tired I couldn't handle it.

I confess that in the early weeks I left my DH for a week and thought about never going back.

I confess that I feel like I don't spend enough time with Gabrielle and I wonder how going to daycare so young with affect her later on. I feel guilty about her being in daycare.

I confess that I am disappointed by my DH and his lack of interest in doing things as a family.

I could go on and on It sure feels better to get some of this stuff off my chest.

I too confess that I complain about being fat but can't be bothered to do anything about it. In fact when I go out for walks I often buy a choccie bar and have been eating dessert almost every night .... come to think of it I usually have something naughty for afternoon tea as well! Plus I can't stop gorging on things I couldn't eat while preggy.

I confess that my friends have some baby books that they love but I hate them because when I read them I feel like I'm getting lectured to by a bossy head prefect.

On days where bub has hormone spots and rashes on his face I wish they would go away because he looks cuter without them.

I haven't cleaned the bathroom properly in 3 months.

I buy clothes for bubba that are unnecessary but they are just so darn cute! I also spend way too much on little extras and I really shouldn't coz I'm not working outside the home anymore.

I also don't want to go back to work ever! (will buy lotto ticket this week)

This is a great thread!

I confess that.....

- I am freaking out about this baby, even though it was planned and we are really looking forward to being parents. It just seems scary once it is actually happening.

- I feel like people think I am too young, even though I will be 28, married, and been with my hubby for 10 years when baby is born.

- I am already starting to worry about finances when I am off work, and dont want to go back to work when baby is born even though I will have to.

Aaaahhh, that feels so much better

I confess that even though we have only had 'special cuddles' 3 times since DS was born I really don't care. And at the moment I don't care if it never happens.
I confess that even though I wish DP would help out more with DS when he does I have to stop myself from taking over.
I confess that even though I get angry I am also glad when he is out all night because then I get the bed to myself.
I confess that I often think that DP doesn't care about my feelings when he does the things he does.
And I confess that I think that if we didn't have the business (his dream) then we would have more money.
I confess that I often wish that DP would get up to DS during the night even though I know that it is easier for me to do it. (DP doesn't even hear him wake up anyway).
Oh and I look forward to my mum visiting because I know that she will look after DS a lot.
And finally I wish that DP would take better care of himself and stop smoking and drinking so much.
And finally, I confess that in the early stages of being pregnant I would often wish that I would have a miscarriage so that I would stop feeling so sick.

I confess that for the first year I merely went 'through the motions' for B, I was nowhere near ready to be a mum, and even now I look at hime sometimes on days when he is being a little shyte and think 'my life would be so much easier if I had LET your dad/grandparents keep you' even though I fought tooth and nail to keep him with me when my marriage fell apart

I confess that every day so far I have compared my feelings for Jaelyn and Brandon and I feel like I love Jae more

I confess that I spend way more time online than I should, and spend the last 1/2 hour to an hour rushing around doing as much as I can before DP or his dad gets home, and using Jae as an excuse if I forgot to do something or ran out f time to do it!

I confess that I have a stahs of chocolate blocks in the back of the 'school lunch stuff' cupboard for days where I need something and need it NOW

I confess that sometimes I resent DP for racking up such a big debt before he met me, and that it means I HAVE to go back to work before Jae's 1st birthday, I dont want to go back until shes at least 2

And Casper, I havent had 'special cuddles' with DP since I was 29 weeks preg (had an early labour fright within hours of the last time we got any) and I dont miss it one bit! DP is starting to drop massive 'hints' that he thinks its high time he got some but I keep making excuses as to why we cant just yet...

I confess that I am sitting here typing this up while DP cooks dinner and sorts my son out to get ready... I should prob go and help somehow

Its nice to know that others do the same as me, namely blame baby when I don't get anything done all day,

Wow great thread my turn:

- scared to move back in with DH although I want to so bad

- I wonder what it would be like without Arianne

- I am terrified of studying thinking I will fail

- Did think about "accidently" falling pregnant after     Arianne

- I made the biggest mistake quiting my job

Thats all I think of at the moment I am sure more will come to mind soon.

I confess:

I really want baby number 2 and so does DH, but I'm thinking

- I'm too fat to be pregnant again
- Can we afford another child?
- Can I cope with another child?

Well I was busy reading this thread entirely, a bit confused because there's the confessions thread in the General section..

And now realised when Bizzy said it - that it is a year old!

I was just about to do my confessions too... ahh well.

Ok, what the heck.

In line with the other confessions:

- I confess that I was rather shocked at how difficult that newborn stage was and there was quite a bit of crying and screaming done by everybody in the house while we adjusting to the hideous feeding issues and sleep deprivation

- I confess that I could do my housework much quicker and more efficiently but that would mean not much time for "me" and so I'm a bit slack with it

- I confess that when my housework is pretty much all done I then don't know what to do with myself, so in a way it's good to have it undone because then I know there's always something to do IYKWIM?

- I confess that I know I'm overweight but I have made no effort to lose my baby weight at all and just eat what I want! I have told DH I am starting a diet when DS is 8mo because then he won't need my breastmilk so much but I really don't want to start a diet at all and don't care enough yet about how I look. But I know that I should care and should make more of an effort.

- I confess that DH and I started talking about trying for another baby but I got super anxious about it and decided it was way too soon and he agreed.

Interesting looking at this now, a year later. Particularly this bit:

I confess that I am disappointed by my DH and his lack of interest in doing things as a family.


Esp since DH and I split up barely 4 months after I wrote this last year.

ETA to fix up the quote
