    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @solomonhall201 LOL. I’m a known lunch forget-er too. I have to chant to myself before I leave “keys, work bag, badge, lunch, kid!”

    Am I overreacting to my non-mom friends saying “just pump!” ?

    @ckatiejo No one understands unless they are going or recently have gone through it. Even I imagine I’ll forget truly how hard it was one day. I also have dogs, and if I didn’t have anyone to let them out I might understand, especially if you didn’t live close. I have particularly difficult...

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @richardlp I actually don’t know if the alerts would show on his phone, but he’s well aware how to add his own calendar with alerts or to set reminders!

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @dan_r My husband has the calendar on his phone show on the front page, he even said he knew the appointment was tomorrow but it apparently still didn’t click. The calendar even said “husband to take” lol. We have a large kitchen calendar… that’s hasn’t been filled out since May lol. Neither...

    What is it like going from 1-2 or 2-3 kids with 2 full time working parents?

    @katrina2017 I’m honestly not super worried about where I am at professionally, but I don’t like feeling so out of sorts that I don’t know what’s going on. How old is your youngest? I’m trying to ask this without saying “do you regret it” because I am sure you do not regret your kids, but do...

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @mkstevens83 He definitely knows I’m serious about not continuing to remind him now! I am not an organized person and I made the effort to learn how to not forget things, sure I’ve made mistakes since but if you put in a true effort, it’s possible.

    I don’t really have time to make this rant but I feel like I’m about to explode

    @eleader22 You need a different office solution until next week, or you need to lock the door and inform your husband you cannot help. Baby can go w him to run errands, as inconvenient as I know that it.

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @dinkold I definitely get what you’re saying, but I can already see me having to say “did you check your email?”. At this point, if there’s something I can do to help besides be his personal reminder-er, he needs to tell me. I’ve tried a lot of different things. I know this sounds selfish and...

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @dinkold My husband is in a trade, so no work calendar that he uses. But, it makes things easier because he really can ask for any day off with 48 hours notice.

    How do you have time to do anything?

    @demorah39 I SO wish I could trust my parents to drive my kid. My mom wants us to bring him to their house, my husband works at 6am and I work at 7am. It adds 20 ish minutes to my commute plus waking up the baby and actually physically getting him ready. Our van doors no longer open and she...

    What is it like going from 1-2 or 2-3 kids with 2 full time working parents?

    @shanbless I got you, those were still some of the answers I was looking for! I suppose the benefit of having another one close in age is that drop off schedules will be similar most of the time. We also have 3 dogs, 2 very high energy and needy and I know it’s crazy but I feel like 2 kids...

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @bubblegum2021 Yep. I’ve had my fair share of natural consequences, so hopefully it works for him!

    @allie50 Yep!! He really needs to learn.

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @natsumilam32 Well, he’s in a trade and it’s sort of what gets done, gets done it seems like lol. But I can assure you he would never forget to like up his fantasy teams and what time every game is, so what time we will need to leave to be at home on time to see it. So he’s capable.

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @annamarie6991 I have definitely forgot my fair share of things, and I think it’s why my anxiety about appointments/events started. I realized the only way I actually learned was through embarrassment/disappointed in myself or disappointing others. He is a good man, but needs to learn how to...

    What is it like going from 1-2 or 2-3 kids with 2 full time working parents?

    I always wanted 3-4 kids, but I’m beginning to think 2 will be our number. But how hard is the transition with work? I was part time for the first 6 months with my first, but I don’t think I’ll have that option with my new employer. So I’ll be Monday through Friday 40 hours a week. I’m not...

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @annamarie6991 Definitely part of the reason I’m ready to let go of doing everything. It was fine before kids, but I’m realizing I can’t do everything even if I wanted to. I’m definitely grateful he realized it was his mistake and figured it out!

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @johnny1973 Yep, I shared the calendar with the idea I’ll give him one heads up and after that it’s on him. I still haven’t been good about only one heads up, but this was a start!

    @gigikaren Thats what I asked!

    “Why didn’t you remind me?” -My Husband

    @heislove1980 I’m hoping if he just actually remembers these things, I can actually forget them and not have anxiety lol. I’m honestly shocked he didn’t remember, because typically if he doesn’t have to work he looks forward to it! Now he still has to work a half day, when he could have slept in!
