Happy Canada Day! It was brutally hot here. 47°C. We went to the parade anyway and had a dip in the lake and a bounce in the castle and by the time we left I was nearly dead.

Elle has a not great cough. I think it's just a cold but it's bothering me. I feel like I kind of want to go to the ped tomorrow but I'm sure that is being extra

I wouldn’t even think twice. Ours is great about giving ideas and telling us when to come in. Mama gut is real and you’ll sleep better knowing it’s nothing.

Oh hey everyone. I’m definitely falling behind here, but mostly because I’m behind on life. Big nope to un swaddling the baby and taking the paci away. Those things are saving my life these days. I am finally feeling human again. I’ve baked cupcakes, went to a yoga class and out for brunch. I even got my hair cut!! Seriously, I may survive to have older children.

If she’s not running a fever I’d do all the things: humidifier, steam, saline + nose frida, lifting one side of the crib, etc and see how she does. If she’s still coughing a lot, I’d take her in. I always say my copay is more than worth the peace of mind.

I've been posting in the motn thread that we've had an awful few days. No naps, fighting bedtime, frequent night waking. All that shit. Then tonight after dinner E rolled from back to belly, belly to back and then back again. And then she passed out and has been asleep for 2 hours already. Now that it's happened I'm rembering her brother being the same way. He'd always have a few days of shitty sleep before a big physical milestone.

Happy Canada Day! We had such a good day despite getting downpoured on 3 separate times. We went to the festivities, L did a paddle boat ride with my dad, we had a campfire and a bbq and L had a late late nap so he could stay up to watch them. B was pretty good all day although it was tough to get him to sleep in a different house.
And I am thoroughly exhausted now.

yianna you drive to work?!? Yikes. Do you at least have a WFH day? That’s the only thing that saves my sanity. I just bought a stroller on the BST our your way and I am dreading having to go pick it up. But I’ll do it for a $170 lightly used bugaboo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ do you ever fantasize about moving to a LCOL area? I do... I just can’t make half of my salary anywhere else so I feel stuck. katietopaz I can’t imagine how tough that is. I’m glad you have a diagnosis and a starting point. Where Leaf 🌱 - what town? And no WFH. It sucks but I LOVE my job and my company. We have looked at moving to Pensacola bc Navy Fed has a huge campus there but it’ll mean no grandparents in driving distance. My dad is in his mid 70s and hates flying... so I don’t know if that will ever happen.

Ugh sorry polson. If it is any consolation when I got DS's hfm I never got a rash. Just a fever and felt like garbage for less than 24 hours and felt better pretty quickly. Feel better!

You just cannot catch a break! Do they treat hfm? Could you call the doctor and just see if they’ll give you something early bc your kids have had it?

calendula im really hoping that i’ll be a lucky one with no rash, but dd has it so bad - like on her legs and chest, not just the normal hands and feet and mouth area. i’m really surprised she never complained of a sore throat though. dizzycooks i don’t think they can do anything for it. internet says to treat symptoms - tylenol, benedryl, hydrocortisone etc. this daycare transition has been super rough illness-wise. i’m hoping this means winter won’t be as bad that way for us if we’re getting a lot of it now, right?
