auri his little face kills me. I miss my teeny squish! Omg I’m so sleep deprived. I read this and thought - but where did she go? Like on a holiday? You just mean because she’s grown, yes? This is my baby now. 😢😢😢😢 ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180410/1a7d09ecc270dfedaccb4bccfdc9995c.jpg)

Fucking pressure is unreal tonight. Sitting down makes me feel like I’m going to give birth so I’ve just been pacing around. At least give me some useful contractions. I never had this with DD1.

Is it close enough that I can start sending labour vibes? Because that sounds miserable 2 weeks til due date. 38 weeks tomorrow. I’m saying yes 😂 My children are stubborn so I am sure it’s nothing.

My H is cooking dinner while I snuggle N. I think it's the first meal he's cooked since we had the baby. But I'm really looking forward to it so I'll forgive it.
Tomorrow we're running to the accountant and picking up N's birth certificate while E is at preschool. When we had E I used to be so stressed about going out with her but now going out with only a newborn and no crazy toddler seems like a dream. Plus I'm going to make the H go to Starbucks.

I went to my hair appointment & have had a couple of contractions since getting home 2.5 hours ago. But when I laid down in bed to time them, they stopped.

I freaking hate this - still there - not painful enough so I’m kinda sleeping through them (but not really). No pattern. Just craziness.

Well, my mom flew home today. Aside from just loving having her around the boys, I got very spoiled by having basically everything chore-related taken care of. It’s totally not overkill to hire a house cleaner and pay for grocery delivery, right? Right?

It’s totally not overkill to hire a house cleaner and pay for grocery delivery, right? Right? I have groceries coming tomorrow and my house cleaner every other week. It's a lifesaver when you're feeling spread too thin among multiple kids IMO. You can't outsource spending time with your family. Household stuff isn't what you need to be doing right now.

yianna I am so so glad she flipped!!!! As for me, DD turns two weeks old today and DH has his first day back at work. I'm sad to see him go but looking forward to some alone time with the baby. It will be harder in the afternoons when DS gets home from school. We are still having some minor issues with DS acting out and trolling for attention but it is getting better every day. DD is 2 ounces from her birth weight but gaining steadily. We do both have thrush, and Fun fun I have a vaginal yeast infection too. So I started diflucan yesterday and she has some Nystatin drops. I hope it works. BFing is going okay. I nurse throughout the day and give formula at night or when it's otherwise convenient. I'm pumping a bit too. I keep checking in weekly to see how I feel about it and if I want to stop. So far it's okay. Not hating it as much as I thought I might.

katietopaz do it, grocery delivery makes life so much easier. I want a cleaner too, I should look into that. Lol how’s me for the epitome of laziness- I’m too slack to look into getting someone else to clean my house for me haha

Sorry for the thrush calendula, but I’m glad to hear you aren’t hating BF as much as you feared! A weekly check in with yourself to make sure it’s still something you want to do is a great idea:)

Lol katietopaz my H actually mentioned to me something along the lines of “wouldn’t it be nice if we could have someone come in and do a few things around here?” and now all my tabs on safari are for cleaning services and I have requests in for quotes. Don’t threaten me with a good time, H!😉

What sorts of grocery delivery services are available in your areas?
We have Google Express (doesn't do perishables), Instant Cart, a regional chain grocery, and Amazon Fresh.
I've tried mostly used Google Express, and wanted to see what others were using.

DH pointed out that it would be a tough decision to make on any given day since some days are great and some are really frustrating. Better to look at the entire past week and see if there were more good or bad days. He is a good cookie 🍪 🙂
