We had a pretty good night. Wake ups at 1, 3:30 and then 6:30.
The only thing that's terrible is I'm trying to keep DS upright after feedings bc of reflux but it often wakes him up from his nursing induced slumber. Then I find myself bouncing him for an hour. Sigh.
I'm pretending to be asleep with LO while H is taking care of DS1!

Baby boy is here and doing well. He’s 7 lbs 6 oz so over two pounds smaller than DS1 but sure didn’t feel like it at the time. I’m exhausted but I’ll update later. Congratulations!!!!

Good morning! I’m sitting on the couch drinking coffee. We already had breakfast. I made French toast and bacon. G is now coloring quietly. In a little bit I will shower and get us dressed. Just G and I are going to see our friends in PA. My bff has a daughter that’s only 3 months younger than G. They have a ball together. I will probably be there all day so MH is on his own with the little guy.

I'm so excited that I will have friends (and maybe irl internet friends huh huh you ladies in my area) with kids this LOs age!! My best friends daughter is 2y older than E but they play so nice together, and our 2nd girls will just be weeks apart. But she lives in SC 😭. Other than that my one gf has a son who is about to turn 1.. No other local friends have kids yet!

I really am conflicted with this weird pain on my right side. It's right at the top of my uterus and it occasionally wraps around, but it's only on the right side. It feels burning sometimes. It comes and goes but when it comes, it hurts pretty bad. But all my stuff has been clear so.. Just the muscles in between my ribs stretching?

Other than that my one gf has a son who is about to turn 1.. No other local friends have kids yet! Myself and 3 of my friends/family members had 4 girls all within 9 months of each other. Sadly the closest one lives 40 minutes away. It sucks big time. It takes me about an hour and 40 minutes to get to my bffs house. That’s why I’m going today with just G. It easier than bringing the baby too. Besides then G gets some alone time with me. If I thought you were anywhere near my bffs house, I would plan a small gtg with you. But from the general area where I think you are, she is not close to you. As you can tell though, I’m willing to drive a bit to hang out. 😊

Do you usually have high blood pressure? If those things are fine, I wouldn’t worry too much. Otherwise I would be concerned about possible pre-e. Pain in the upper abdomen that wraps around your side can be a symptom but is not the only thing it could be.

Baby and I are headed to KC to have brunch with some of my sorority sisters. I’m really looking forward to it. DH will have the rest of the girls for a good 4-5 hours. Hoping they don’t just sit around and watch TV. Congrats kbw!!!

Pain in the upper abdomen that wraps around your side can be a symptom but is not the only thing it could be. Vision fine, blood pressure always has been fine at the dr. I get swelling when I'm dehydrated but that's normal for me for pg. I mention it every week and I guess all my measurements are OK because every Dr just tells me it's my muscles stretching. But Dr Google has me worried otherwise!

One of my BMB mom's from E was up at a water park in NJ but we had too much going on with them at the dance last night to meet up with them for dinner. It would have been an hour drive but 🤷♀️ I met up with her down at the DE Children's Museum over the summer too which is an hour drive. I don't mind it! Especially now with my Forester 😍

DH is only around for a few hours before he has to go to work. But it’s a good thing he’s around at all, because my toddler tolerance is at an all time low.
Texted SIL to say I hoped she recovered quickly and that I’d heard Tamiflu could really shorten the duration. She texts me back that she’s pretty sure it’s just a sinus infection and she doesn’t have a fever. I really should have considered the source. I just wish my mom had thought about not indulging her penchant for the dramatic when she should have known it would cause me a lot of stress. Very happy SIL isn’t seriously ill, not happy with my mom.

Add us to the ER visit list although it was for DS1. He ended up developing a double ear infection. I'm sure related to his recent flu. Ugh. I didn't notice in time to just get to urgent care in the morning. He's acting normal again already, thank God!

Those that BF, how long in between feedings before you randomly let down?
Right now it’s like 2-2.5 hours for me and sometimes even sooner bc I’m holding her all the time. I hate when I forget my breast pads and then everything is wet.

Congratulations kbw!! Aw man sorry for the er visits easternshoregirl and jessijean. Hope all is going well. My sister came up for a visit yesterday and brought us lunch, then my parents came by in the afternoon and everyone stuck around for supper. My sister is leaving for Australia for 3 weeks later this week so the kids kept her busy out in the snow to make sure she didn’t forget what weather she was leaving behind Today it’s way colder again, so back inside. N is one month old today! Also just watching Olympics when we can! Whoop!

I hate when I forget my breast pads and then everything is wet. This is the worst. I swear i didnt leak with dd but now im like always wet, ds's clothes are wet, its gross. Im going to have to invest in breast pads, i just had the samples left from dd and i used them all now. Anyway i dont know how long bw feedings though. Sorry for the vent.
