Don't be sorry babybean, I appreciate it. Do you mind if I ask what symptoms you had? I had been bleeding/spotting the whole 9 weeks but nothing indicated an issue until I had to go to the ER. My placenta came out whole, I was spotting and was not having fresh blood really so we thought I just had bad luck with prolonged bleeding. Then I passed a few clots and was dripping blood and got dizzy so I went to the ER. I avoided the dnc because I didn’t have an infection and it all passed on it’s own. |

Thanks for your input @awayscheese whatsit leatherpants! And bless you and all your descendants calendula. The Brooks Juno sports bra is everything I’ve ever needed in life. I am SO glad you love it!!! It's a miracle. |

Our photographer sent over a few more sneak peek pics of the family/newborn pics we had done. The rest will be finished this weekend. Can't wait! Hope you don't mind me AWing the pics. 😍 Oh and the little stinker pooped in the bath, all over me, and on his bath towel tonight. So much 💩 💩 💩 😦.   |

So sweet mattsgirl2004!! I can’t wait to see more. Must be poop night everywhere. L pooped while I was rocking him to sleep. Then pooped again after I changed him and reswaddled. 🙄 he seemed quite pleased with himself. |

I spent about an hour going through bins of clothes to see if there was anything of Gs that we could use for A. We don’t know if we’re done at 2 or will eventually go for a third but... there were so many clothes!!! I have a box of stuff I’m gonna try to sell, a bunch of stuff that will work for her and some more set aside in case. Where did it all come from?!

The baby has spent the last 3 hours screaming. Nothing I did would soothe her and Mh is sick therefore can't help. I almost had a breakdown and then she projectile vomited all over both of us. And now she is passed out. Poor baby was so upset and it was awful not being able to calm her.

So cute mattsgirl2004! I'm so bummed about our photos. They were done over 5 weeks ago and we still don't have them. I text our photographer last week and she said she was in an accident not long after our shoot and was in a neck brace for a few weeks and was just able to start working again last week. I'm hoping to have them next week but sad it's taken so long to get them. |

Once we found out O was a boy my H made me go through all the bins of girl clothes in the basement- I ended up taking 5 bins full to OUAC. And I still kept 3 full ones of nice/special outfits I couldn’t imagine getting rid of. So. Many. Clothes. 😳 |

cp3 my wait hasn’t been anywhere near as long as yours, but we don’t have some of our newborn pics back either and I’m getting impatient! Hopefully your photographer gets yours to you ASAP!

When did you guys start tummy time with your littles? I cannot remember what I did with the toddler.

The baby woke up after I posted last night and didn't go to sleep until midnight. I'm so tired. Mh is working from home and D1 doesn't have school and I'm annoyed. I understand because he is sick but I have to make sure she is quiet and leaves him alone and I just want to sleep.

We ordered canvas prints and announcement cards so I understand those would take some time but I wish she would give me the digital files of them. And the baby will be 7 weeks on Monday so I feel weird sending out announcement cards so late. I hope you get your pictures soon too! |

I think we started tummy time for a few minutes a day/when we remembered once their umbilical cords fell off with the first two.

cp3 I'm sorry about the rough night last night and how tired you are today. I hope you're able to get some extra rest tonight somehow. Sorry about your newborn pics too. That would be super frustrating!

I think I'm the only one who doesn't make my babies do tummy time. I know it's recommended, but somehow my kids have always learned to hold their heads up, roll over, etc without it. MOTY here. 😕

ArielMermaid we started tummy time the first week bc that’s what the pedi recommended. But for the first few weeks, we’d lay him on his belly and he’d either cry after 10 seconds or fall asleep. So he probably really didn’t get much out of it until he was 3-4 weeks old.

We do tummy time on my chest if I remember.
And we’ve tried a few times otherwise but I am terrible at remembering

Everytime I swear we're done with kids (like when it feels like I'm bleeding out), something happens that makes me question that.
One of my friends posted this sweet FB post any their daughter's first birthday and omg now I can't imagine this being my last baby.

We started tummy time after the umbilical cord stump fell off. I try to do it on the floor or on my chest every day.
Regarding baby clothes I have been organizing DS1s clothes and he has a ton between the hand me downs from cousins, gifts, and what I bought. DS2 doesn’t need much.
L had his 2 month appointment yesterday. He rocked getting the shots. He cried for less than a minute after getting them.
DS1 was up in the MOTN with DS2 and me, so we were all up from about 2:49-3:40. It was rough. Then we all were up shortly after 7:00. Thankfully DS1 is at daycare. I am looking forward to getting a pedicure at 4:30.

And my in laws picked tonight to invite themselves over, even though we’ll see them Sunday for the toddlers birthday. Fuck today. |
