My kid cries whenever I walk into the room. He will be playing happily, see me, and boom- crying bc he must nurse asap.

My kid has earned the nickname Captain Barnacle, since last week she must attached to me. She used to be so chill.

My baby started clapping today! Yay! He almost looks like he is doing a golf clap though, so dainty looking ππ. He also didnβt want to nap this afternoon - I think he is so focused on learning new skills and trying to be mobile that he doesnβt want to bother with βboringβ sleep. π€·ββοΈ

I just checked my Wonder Weeks app and sure enough sheβs at the end of a leap. Makes sense.

They got 4 more boys out of the cave today - so that is 8 boys total out! Very happy news. Weβre hoping that the rescuers get enough rest tonight and that everyone involved in the operation stays safe. Fingers crossed for a 100% success rate tomorrow!

Iβm so happy to hear 4 more kids are out. This is just going to add the confidence and boost the morale for both remaining boys and rescuers. Just 4 more plus coach and the personnel involved. Will continue praying for their safety. Taitai thanks for keeping us in the loop. I know you posted on the general board but thereβs to much chatter there to keep up.

Thanks for all the updates on the rescue mission. I'm pretty much glued to the thread on GD.

I got mine unclogged late last night with the pump and some hand expression. I've had so few clogs this time around that I forgot to take Sunflower Lecithin until late yesterday afternoon. I hope yours resolves asap.

Taitai Thanks for the updates . Lots of good news on this rescue. The more Iβve heard about the situation the more amazing it is that theyβve been able to accomplish any sort of rescue under those conditions.

Baby girl has had eggs 3 times and every time this is what happens to her face... itβs worse on the side you canβt see well. Could it be an allergy? ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180709/d8146aa3f1b21d108ff498f31ed0e58d.jpg)

Hello! Iβve missed everyone! π π
Iβm having a very hard time keeping up with everything. I need more hours in the day. Iβm tryiing to nurse on demand and work and I just started working out and the working out has set me over the edge. Itβs claimed all my free time.
My neice in an Oct 17 baby and sheβs just like all your babies where she canβt be away from her mom. She was the happiest baby, never cried and all of a sudden sheβs in peril all the time. Iβll tell my SIL sheβs not alone.

August Blooms those are hives. Iβd say yes, sheβs allergic for now. Iβd mention it at your next Dr appt and would stop eggs until the Dr tells you to re introduce.

I donβt want to jinx myself but ladies w clogs do you take lechithen everyday? This is my only nursing time that Iβve taken everyday no matter what and Iβve had the least clogs.
It usually gets worse for me though the older babies are with teething and less nursing so maybe itβs just cause Iβm not there yet and you are.

It definitely helped. I took it a few times a day, IIRC. The pills are huge though

August Blooms , Definitely hives/an allergy. Especially being around the mouth. Sorry ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) We tried eggs with DS for the 2nd time this weekend. He had an eczema flare up that hasnt been that bad in months. I'm wondering if it's bc of the egg. He didnt respond to the prick test at the allergist for eggs, but I'm very "Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" right now.

I spent the morning letting DD2 "crawl" all over me (because she too can't be more then touching distance from Mama) while trying to read the news on the Thai cave rescue. I am in awe of how everyone has pulled together on this. It is so inspiring and I am sending all the thoughts and prayers for the last ones still in the cave. Everyone involved are true heroes.
Since DD1 is at grandma's, LO and I got actually got a stroller walk in this morning. No big plans for the rest of the day. At some point this week I need to take a Google educator certification test for work. I'm nervous as it's been a long time since I've taken a test and all this educational technology stuff keeps changing so fast it's hard to keep up. I have to have 3 hours to take the test so if it's ready by tonight (google is generating my test right now), I'll do it after LO goes to bed.

DS has been struggling with naps too, he is currently standing and jumping in his crib after a half hour nap. Iβm hoping he falls back asleep but it seems unlikely. One of his top teeth is getting really close to popping through and I think heβs working on solo standing and getting towards walking π³ He cruises and will walk (quite well and rather speedy) holding our hands. He has stood independently for a few seconds a handful of times. I so do not need him walking yet.

DS gives kisses too, but only to me π Heβs done it since about 6.5 months and itβs the greatest albeit slobbery for sure. At bedtime as Iβm rocking him during songs he will often pick his head up off my shoulder, smile at me and give me a kiss before snuggling back in. He melts my heart πππ

Last night tho she grabbed my face and slobbered all over it.

In other terrifying news, little one let go of the wall she was holding onto and stood for 15 seconds or so today.
Happy to hear about the cave rescue going well! Will be looking for more news tonight on it.

rebeccabunch I don't take sunflower lecithin daily, only when I get a clog. Since you are prone to clogs and it is working, I wouldn't stop taking it regularly. It is great to see you!! No kisses but LO loves to blow raspberries on any bare skin he can get to. He's really good at it and it is hilarious. He only does it to me. I feel special. π We spotted tooth #7 getting ready to break through!

Oh hey strangers.
DS2 is going to be 10 months tomorrow. WHAAAAAATTT??
Luckily we seem to have avoided a velcro phase here, but maybe because for the first three months of his life he wouldn't let me put him down?
He's crawling, cruising, H said he stood up from squatting (not holding on to anything) for a second the other day then squatted right back down π³
He's learned how to like, keep making noise if we run out finger up and down on his lips or like running his mouth back and forth on me (usually while nursing π) to make these hilarious noises. It's funny yet so, so annoying.
Aaaaand still not STTN. We were pretty consistantly having just one wake up for a bit there but then the last few nights he's been back to two. Last night he started screaming at midnight and I was just letting him CIO but after like 30 minutes I went in...he had pooped. Of course. We'll see what tonight brings.
And still no teeth!!!

CoachTsWife My LO motorboats me all the time now! Iβm like - you canβt do that in public baby! duskymonkey My baby always wants to stand too, even though he canβt sit himself up on his own. He just climbs me like a jungle gym. danvers Good luck on your test! August Blooms I agree with rachydc and rebeccabunch - looks like an allergic reaction to me. LO gets a similar reaction when he has anything with dairy in it π© Also - thanks for sending positive thoughts and prayers to the cave rescue effort everyone. It really means a lot to this country to know that so many over the world are pulling for them, especially as we also had the horrible boat deaths in Phuket last week (second worst at sea and and tourism disaster in Thailand, behind the 2004 Tsunami). Thanks again guys. ππ

Taitai your updates have been great! I can't stop thinking about them and it's easing my mind during all of these night feeding lately. I am so anxious for these last 5. (5, right?)
