7 weeks old tomorrow!
How big is baby? She's getting too long for her before swaddles. She's so much chunkier than dd1 was.
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?
Any Upcoming Appointments? 2 month appointment November 1st.
Symptoms: still having some insomnia. I also am back on Zoloft for anxiety.
Milestones: smiling and her neck is getting really strong where she can hold her head up for short periods of time. Getting more nights with just one wake up.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
The last three nights she has been super fussy before bed and screams her head off right before passing out. I hope this doesn't continue for as long as it did with DD1!

We’re both good!
Milestones:
Baby be babying
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
I would LOVE more than 2 consecutive hours of night sleep. We caved and bought the newborn insert for our halo bassinet, even though it’ll only work for another month or two at most. Desperate times!

How old is baby?! One week old today.
How big is baby? Will find out if she’s gaining weight appropriately at her appointment on Thursday. Hopefully she’s back to over 7pounds now.
Any Upcoming Appointments? I had a follow up with ob today to check my incision. She removed the steroid strips and all looks good this time around. My last c-section ended with a god awful scar. Hoping we continue to avoid any issues.
Symptoms: I’m overly emotional. I think I’ve cried more in the last 24 hours than I have in years. Other than that just sluggish as hell still due to surgery.
Milestones: One week old and I’ve dramativalky reduced the amount of pain meds I’ve been taking
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I’m thinking I’m going to have to see a lactation consultant soon for DD2. She was a rock star from the start and slowly we are having issues. I want to get this right because I really don’t want to have to start pumping so soon.

When is your due date? How far along are you? OR how old is baby?! 3 weeks 5 days
How big is baby? Guessing a little over 9 lbs
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Team Green turned Pink
Any Upcoming Appointments? One month appt next week
Symptoms: For me - getting irritated down below from all the pads. I hate it. I'm using diaper ointment to try to keep things from getting worse. For her - she also has an irritated bum from all the poo. She's been fussier than usual the past couple days and sleep has been worse at night.
Milestones: I believe I only have 15 injections left. The countdown is on!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? So tired. The past two days have been challenging and I've been struggling to get through them. Being so tired really messes with me mentally/emotionally.

tbirdlove have you tried switching brands? I had a reaction from Always, but was fine with kotex for whatever reason. Might be worth even getting the cotton kind from somewhere like Whole foods.

I've also had reactions to Always in the past. I've used Target brand so far this time and have recently been able to switch back to my usual panty liners. I've even been using fleece liners laid on top of my pads (and the past couple days just the fleece alone) to help prevent this problem! Apparently I'm just super sensitive down there 😞 tbirdlove have you tried switching brands? I had a reaction from Always, but was fine with kotex for whatever reason.

3 weeks old yesterday
How big is baby?
Finally back at birth weight!! 10lbs 10oz at our breastfeeding appointment yesterday
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?
Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments?
Breastfeeding appointment on Tuesday just to check that he’s still gaining well
Symptoms:
Milestones:
We’ve hit the lovely 3 week growth spurt.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
We finally got back to birth weight. He was discharged at 9lbs 11oz and although he was gaining weight at every appointment and he is healthy they didn’t like how long it was taking to get back up. They started to talk about supplementing but I knew he was just in that newborn sleepy phase that he didn’t want to work for the milk. Finally he went from gaining 19g/day to 38g/day.
