My grandma & MIL are driving me insane today. I'm 39 weeks and they both keep checking in. My grams keeps giving us a play by play in case we need to drop the kids off to her at all and my MIL is just annoying (anything yet? how's she feeling?).
It's making me antsy & grumpy.

Sooooo....I think I have a potty trained kid. Like day 2 was terrible for about 3-4 hours of just utter confusion but we got back on track, threw away that stupid Oh Crap! book, and we’ve been rocking it ever since. DS1 has done so well all week and we’ve even left the house a few times for up to 3 hours. Including today for his sports class where he FINALLY participated for the first time since week 1. So it’s been a good few days. katietopaz L is a bit older than M but he’s been giving us social smiles since around the 1 month mark so definitely possible! I think we’ve also gotten a few laughs!

I feel like B is never going to smile. The RBF is strong with this one.

As soon as it warms up I’m officially potty training DS. He already poops on the potty 97% of the time and pees 70%, so I just have to bite the bullet. I’m so happy you survived sunshinedaisies

There's no winning around here today. Freshly changed diaper? *Huge poop. Nursing and napping? *Wide awake when I put him down. Fussing during the poopy diaper change and waking up the toddler from nap = grouchy, grumpy toddler.

The baby is being so picky when she nurses on the right side. I have to do football hold otherwise she won't eat on that side. The left she could care less about her position. So weird.

My sister needed us to watch her kids today through tomorrow evening so I will have 5 kids tonight. Thankfully her youngest is 6 so they are pretty self sufficient and will help keep D1 busy but it's always chaotic adding in 3 extra kids.

Yeah she had been happy with the cradle hold but the past few days she's been so picky just on that one side. I'm glad other babies are being weird too.

I swear as soon as 8pm hits this baby gets so fussy and only wants me. Mh will try to take over so I can get a break but she wants nothing to do with him. He tries everything with her and as soon as I get her she is perfectly fine.

DS definitely knows the difference between his parents and others. He was laying on the couch beside my SIL very content and trying to suck on his fist. I came over and started talking to him and he gives me a good look then starts wailing. 😐

He tries everything with her and as soon as I get her she is perfectly fine. This is us as well. Makes it tough on the 3.5 yo during bedtime routine when she wants a story from me or to hold my hand and all the baby wants to do is feed. MH has been doing bedtime solo and the older kid is getting tired of being told that she has to wait.

And yeah the first few weeks were hard on D1 at bedtime because she wanted me. I'm looking forward to when baby is a bit older and bedtime should be a bit easier.

The baby gave me a 5 hour stretch last night but yet I am still so tired and don't want to get out of bed.

This kid’s diaper is never not dirty. No matter how often I change it, it’s always full.

If this kid slept at night like she does during the day she would be perfect. Prepared to party all night again.

Ugh I’m so tired and frustrated this morning. H goes back to work today so of course last night was horrendous. Baby was up three times and wouldn’t go back down and toddler was up too. H and I are both exhausted and I just want to cry. I already did at 1:00am but a good shower cry might be on the agenda (if I can get a shower before we head out for DS1’s activity this morning).
And the baby just threw up all over me and my sheets. Fabulous.

I’m sorry you guys had a rough night nevertoomanyshoes. I hope you can get a shower and that your day goes well. I know it doesn’t solve everything but a shower always does wonders for my mood. Hugs and energy sent your way!

Does anyone have an angelcare movement monitor? Will it work in the PNP bassinet as long as I put the board underneath it? We have the sound monitor which we still use for DS1. I was going to get another sound monitor but I have a lot of anxiety so I got the sound + movement one.
