I don’t understand how people can pack a bag so far in advance. I packed one for the version and keep pulling things out of it to wear/use. ArielMermaid our bassinet is still in the basement and our car seat really needs to be washed. We’ll figure it out LOL My bag is mostly things I bought specifically for the hospital so far (toiletries, extra long phone cords, nursing bras/tanks I don’t need yet), but also yoga pants that I won’t wear out in public because so stretched out & also holey. I’m not grabbing anything out of that bag.

I keep forgetting about the new weeks thread and never check in. Hence me randomly showing up on Wednesday’s. Related to Fitbit talk. I just went and checked mine and completely forgot I’m Fitbit friends with kayladawn91 from the tcf days.

I’m living in baby reflux hell. I’m positive we are both constantly covered in spit up and the laundry is insane. Plus he is always groaning because of it. Fuck you reflux I am pretty sure L has some reflux too. He spits up large quantities after almost every feed. On top of that he is very gassy which gets him frustrated.

I’ve been wearing my Fitbit but haven’t been logged into the app. for awhile. I finally logged in yesterday. My step count is pathetic lately...just like my sleep. cornpop sorry you are overwhelmed. I know how difficult it is with a toddler and an infant. I have solo parented both of mine for most of the last 5 days. It is especially hard when you are stuck inside. I hope you can find something to do or someone to help you out.

I just joined a step bet. I need to get serious about a) getting back into real clothes and b) getting out of the house. Money always motivates me

Let me know if you find any magic cures. It’s killing me.

I had my first overnight alone with both the kids. I have dinner in the crockpot, got firewood, did recycling/garbage, changed sheets, the house is clean, I did a few loads of laundry and am going to take a shower! I lost my temper with DS the other night. I sobbed after feeling like a total POS. Yesterday was tricky too and I’ve no idea what I’m doing, but today’s a good day so I’m trying to extend myself some grace. I’m doing better than last time on the PPD/A front so am trying to keep positive.

My nephew who lives with my In laws has lice. Which means I don’t want my FIL anywhere near this house until it’s gone. My room Reno is not even close to done, I have 3 weeks before this baby comes I’m going to have a panic attack. I just want to sob. I just want shit done.
ETA: my FIL and husband are doing this Reno completely themselves. So no FIL is super bad news. We just lost him for a whole week last week because of my MIL’s health. This is the dumbest thing we have ever done. I’m going to burn that room to the ground.

I am so done with everything. I feel so dramatic but God Damn. Can you do something for you? Even just walk target alone with a Starbucks and treat yourself to a new baby outfit and some great new nail polish? $20 and an hour alone can make a huge difference. Or maybe pop some popcorn, forget about making dinner and just veg with your toddler in front of a movie? Deep breaths, you’ve got this!!

My RCS is officially scheduled for 5/1.
That means I have to leave here, huh?

My kid and my dog are competing to see which one of them is going to push me over the edge.

The best I can do is turn on PJ masks and hope my toddler leaves me the fuck alone, chances are slim on that. MH will be doing the Reno tonight just like every night for the past fucking year. It’s so trivial. It just feels like a lot right now. I could really use a break from sickness and renovations.

I went 10 days early with my oldest & my middle had to be pulled from my ribs (not even remotely engaged) 3 days before her EDD at my RCS. This one is low & engaged, plus I’ve started to efface but not dilate (as of two weeks ago). So who knows 🤷♀️

I'm so sorry ArielMermaid. We renoed our kitchen and both bathrooms while I was pregnant with my first and it was a special kind of hell. It's not trivial. I hope you can get a break somehow. And no tinyjoys, you're not allowed to leave.

It’s not trivial at all. Pregnancy + toddler + Reno + solo parenting + possible lice? Nope Octopus all day. That is so much to handle and the fact that you’re still tackling all of it is amazing.
