sarahh it’s been a long time since I’ve used gripe water, I can’t remember. But you could try that, bicycling her legs, and I think sometimes tummy time helps them get gas out. Not that anyone wants to be doing tummy time at 2am. Lol.

sarahh also look into wonder weeks if you haven’t done that. It was always spot on for fussy periods with DD2 and 3. Doesn’t necessarily solve the problem, but makes you feel like there is a reason at least?

It's not even 9pm and I feel like it's the MOTN.
P.S. cluster feeding is a bitch.

So DS’ feeding schedule today was off (he is pretty consistently hungry every 3-4 hrs) so he nursed at 7:30 tonight. Bc I had to stay up to watch This is Us at 9, I couldn’t go to bed right away so now it’s 10:30 & DS is still asleep. So we’re still in the living room & im laying on the couch. If he is sleeping by 11 I will wake him & feed him & go to our room. IM SO TIRED

Well I’m about 3-4cm dilated. Still contracting every 2 minutes. They said they’re most likely keeping me regardless of what happens progress-wise since I’m supposed to be induced in the morning anyway. So that’s good. The nurse mentioned that they could break my water or start me on pit to help get things moving but we shall see!!

amesie good luck! I hope it goes quickly. What is their reasoning for no child visitors? That seems nuts! I would be upset too.

Little guy has his days and nights reversed. He slept all day between feeds. It was actually pretty difficult to wake him up to eat. Since he dropped so much weight, we have no option but to wake him. But now it’s almost 1am and he’s wide eyed and ready to hang out all night. I should have had a nap this afternoon.

We had this problem when we first came home. The only thing I did to help it was to have a distinct night time routine. I make sure I change his pajamas and do his feeding in our bedroom. Then it’s swaddle and lights out. His middle of the night feedings are done mostly in the dark and then swaddle and back in bed. |

I was really upset too, so they let us “sneak” DD in for a short visit. L&D visitors enter through a special entrance at mine though, so that could be hard to pull off elsewhere. Fingers crossed you’re out quickly! |

I'm up. I think I'm going to stop setting an alarm for MOTN pumps and just do it when he wakes us up. My alarm wakes him up. I really hope this reglan and my lactation cookies help. I used to be about 5 bottles ahead, I'm now one ahead and not keeping up. I know it will be ok if I have to supplement so I shouldn't stress. Hope all is well amesie |

Baby was way better tonight than last night. Up every 2.5-3 hours and went back down without a whole lot of fussing. I feel like a new woman. Today me and DHs sister are heading shopping about an hour away so that should be fun. And only one more night without DH. I am so ready for him to come back. Maybe with him as a buffer his sister won’t annoy me as much as she has been.

No baby yet. Still only 3cm but I’m just about 100% effaced so she said it should start picking up more and progressing a bit faster. They gave me a shot of Nubian 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 At like 145 so I could try to sleep and it slowed things down some which I was fine with honestly. I was able to catch a few hours of sleep. It has worn off now and I can feel things picking back up again

This hospital is known to do that. I used to work here so I should have known better. That makes sense but would still be so hard for parents. I hope everything goes well today and you’re able to get home quickly! It’s incredibly different from my hospital. The nurses station was no where near the doors. My husband had to go out with a swipe card to let in any visitors I had. A couple of my nieces came in with my brothers, no one said anything. |

I go here now!!! It’s not quite MOTN but might as well be 😂 I just fed H and now she’s wide awake and ready to party. I swaddled her up nice and tight and plopped her in the bassinet. Hopefully she’ll just drift off to sleep. She’s been asleep most of today tho so I’m scurred that she’s just gonna wanna party for a while
