This 3 week growth spurt is killing my nipples. I don’t know what to do to make it easier but they’re so sore.. and he normally cluster feeds from 8-midnight so we’re just getting into it tonight.

cheeksmum I was just explaining to my H how much my nipples hurt today. He’s totally on board with my weaning plan. It’s hard right now because we are transitioning and only calms down with him. Which is frustrating for me when she’s screaming when I’m holding her and she’s hungry and she calms right down for him. I know it will get better when I’m not associated with food anymore.

Sorry but I didn't care for the gel soothies. They didn't stay cold enough long enough to help much IMO. Maybe I should have tried freezing them instead of putting them in the fridge as suggested.

DS1 has a bday party for a girl at daycare this weekend and it's at a carousel museum. I am supposed to be going with him and DS2 solo - no husband.
Would you take a 1 month old on a carousel? I'd either put him in my Tula or his carseat, but was trying to decide if the spinning would be too much for a baby.
DS1 is only 2 though so if I don't go on with him he won't be able to go on.

I would wear your ds. I wear dd2 everywhere though because she doesn't really like her car seat and I need two hands to deal with dd1. I don't think the spinning will be bad since your ds will be facing in and won't really be able to see the spinning.

Carousels are pretty tame and generally not at all bumpy, I wouldn't worry about the spinning and just have baby in the tula. If he's in the carseat you won't be able to hold onto your bigger one if he wants to be on a horse.

Keep coming in here to see if baby pixiepink24 has arrived! Nope! Still sitting cozy in my ute. I really thought Tuesday was going to be the day but everything just stopped. I've been doing all the old wives tales and walking a bunch. Even went to the zoo today. I have a feeling this kid is as scared to come out as I am.

I went out to dinner with some friends tonight and left both dds with DH. Apparently right after I left dd2 starting screaming and screamed the whole time I was gone 😟 she is so attached to me she refuses to sleep for anyone else and isn't very good with bottles so she was probably hungry too. Now I feel like I can't leave her for very long with anyone.

Now I feel like I can't leave her for very long with anyone. I'm sorry it was a rough night. I would think leaving her with your H would be the best way to help her get used to having you gone. You could always do shorter trips like a walk in your neighborhood and work up from there. You need to be able to have you time!

Going to Target by myself!! Well, that was short lived. I was summoned home by a crying baby. I guess her sleep times are still too unpredictable to run out for an hour. I'll have to start pumping a little in a couple more weeks to have some BM on hand for quick outings like this. Cause even just that little bit of alone time out was a delight!

Ds2 got his first round of vaccinations today and I got my flu shot. He did well, but does not want to nurse and is passed out.

He did well, but does not want to nurse and is passed out. hopefully your ds feels better soon 🙂 dd1 went from a calm, quiet baby to a total nightmare after her two months shots for about a month (I don't know if it was related at all to the vaccines but it was literally the next day she started screaming A LOT). I'm scared for dd2 to get her shots in a few weeks because it was such a terrible month with dd1.

I'm scared for dd2 to get her shots in a few weeks because it was such a terrible month with dd1. He screams all day at me anyways so it wouldn’t be much of a change here. Maybe it will have the opposite affect 😬. I have anxiety over the rotavirus vaccine, my first did not handle that well at all. Totally get feeling anxious about it all.

I think like two others that still post.... Maybe Dramaphile and.....@holliberry ? @ justinbobby? ETA: I just realized justinbobby had her scheduled c-section a few weeks ago.
