I'm back to work today after being home with C for 6 days. It's nice to get out but I miss him. H is home with him for the rest of the week. At least I can watch him over the Nest cam while he sleeps (creeper smile).
Also.. the job posting finally went up! I can finally apply for that damn thing. I have no idea what happens next. I hope I don't have to actually interview for it because I suck at interviews.

Morning! I have a dentist appointment this afternoon and am meeting a rep from the moving company at lunchtime to assess the contents of our storage unit. Fun stuff. Here's C--in one of the outtakes from her 7-month shots--showcasing her newest trick. I feel like I basically have a baby giraffe.

We had a bit of a rough night. Well actually it was pretty standard, but after the last 3 nights if sleeping better it just felt rough lol. Anyway H devoured his breakfast this morning. We're finally making good progress with solids (though still no luck with bottles). It's a lovely day today so hoping to get out a bit.

I'm trying to WFH today, but it isn't going too well with the toddler. He had another seizure last night, but H was actually home and took him to urgent care. It might be strep. Rapid test came back negative so now we wait for the 24hr test and just rotate around the clock with Tylenol/ibuprofen to keep the fever down. I'm tired and just want the week to be over.

Oh, so I forgot to share, FIL called H yesterday on his way to the hospital for emergency eye surgery. His retina spontaneously detached! WTH?!? I didn't even know that was a thing, but apparently it can happen. He's having surgery this afternoon. The recovery sounds horrible. 4 weeks of recovery! You can't lay down in a bed because it might mess with the angle of his retina, no driving, no working, no anything! He owns his own business and lives alone! I have no idea what he's going to do? H and I need to figure out our role in this whole thing because he's going to need the help, but H also has a work conference and 8 overtime shifts this month? Add in our own kids needs and it could be a long long month.
I also had another FD wife call me frantically yesterday asking if my H was with her H (they were partners their last shift). She needed her H to call her ASAP because she was on her way to the ER with her 5yo son. They think he might have viral meningitis. Poor thing! She couldn't get in touch with her H and was freaking out. I felt horrible that I couldn't do anything for them.
The last 48 hrs have been a mess. I'm going to buy some bubble wrap, wine and never leave my house again.

OMG tjanca22. I can't imagine your retina just detaching randomly. I hope you guys can figure out a plan. It sounds like you need a drink!

tjanca22 hope everything settles down real soon! goldenlove I applied for a new job within my company too! I honestly don't think I have the experience for it but a current member of the team thought I would be good at it. So here's hoping! I hope you get your position!

tjanca22 OMG that sounds like an awful recovery to do on your own. My mother had eye surgery and the recovery was the same. She couldn't even bend over. At least my dad was able to help her though.

Morning.
B has a terrible diaper rash. Poor thing. He shakes and cries whenever I change his diaper. I gave him a baking soda bath last night and I'm letting him run around naked right now. I'm sure it will backfire on me and he will pee or poop somewhere. He peed on the carpet last night. Sigh.
I'm starving and have no motivation to make lunch.
Off to catch up!

waitwhat, sorry about your carpet. I use corn starch for bad diaper rashes. I usually put it on before nap or bedtime so it can soak up the moisture.

One to be kept in the kitchen labeled "baking" and the other to be kept in the nursery labeled "baby butt".

I think I just got my first PP period.
I had some super light spotting, like not even enough for a liner, at 3 and 4 months PP but I'm pretty sure this is the real deal. So naturally I am stuffing my face with peanut butter M&Ms.
