I’m having a hard time remembering what day of the week it is #shiftworker
I picked up Monday and Tuesday nights. It was so busy Tuesday night!! I don’t think any of us sat down until 4am.
On my way out of work I saw my friend (that one) who was pregnant with twins on the list for the OR. She had her babies via c-section! I’m so happy for her. The girls are both in the unit but otherwise seem well!
I work again tonight so they will all still be there!

Got home at 4am. Babies woke up at 630. I drank many alcohols. You can guess how I'm feeling today

Well, I have finally lost my mind. I was sleeping and heard the baby fussing. I thought to myself, wow- I can't believe he slept through the night! And then I woke up from that blissful dream to realize that the baby was indeed fussing but that it was 3am 😒

quinn and jules1614 I hope you both get naps today! snuff9861 how are you doing now that you're back at work? My mom owns a Santa suit she uses for work so trying to plan a day Santa (my dad) can come to our house so we can skip the mall. Gonna invite some friends over too. Last year he stopped at the neighbors on his way out and the little boy was in awe that Santa stopped to see him. Also I need to get a white elephant gift for work, open to suggestions.

Ds2 STTN. My boobs are angry. So angry. Thankfully he's helping me out now by sleepy nursing. Oof.
My mom came over to watch him so I could get some work done. He got up early so I only ended up being able to work for an hour or so before he needed to be put down for a nap. Oh well.

I was ready to go back. I’m having some issues with feeling like I don’t fit in but I’m sure it will pass when I get my feet back under me. |

What's your price range? And are you thinking funny or something good or something strange? |

N is still a miserable mess. He won’t stop crying. Won’t let me hold him. I finally strapped him into my carrier and he fell asleep. I’m exhausted.

I'm sorry cdnfarmgirl, that sounds rough. Hope he feels better soon. snuff9861, I felt the same way when I came back from maternity leave. I wasn't gone nearly as long as you but it was an adjustment. Even now I don't always feel 100% connected to my coworkers. As for me, my cable/wifi won't be back until tomorrow (I hope). Apparently, when they came out to "fix" it yesterday they discovered it was a much bigger job than originally thought. So the plan is for it to be fixed tomorrow. I'm not really bothered by the no TV but the no Wifi sucks. Thank god for cell phones. It also meant that my H had to go into his office today so it's just me for bedtime. It's not really hard with the two boys but it's just nonstop until they are asleep. |

Glad you had fun last night, quinn !!! Hope N is feeling better soon, cdnfarmgirl . Second night in a row N woke up at 2:30am. At least unlike the night before, N went back to sleep right after a diaper change, instead of being awake for over an hour. We have to have some work done on our house - our upstairs doesn't have a hall, just a landing for two rooms, a bathroom, and a closet. There is no barrier or railing for the stairs, it's just open. Which was fine until you add an increasingly mobile 11-month old to the mix. So the contractor is going to build out part of the wall so we can put a gate up. They were super busy right now but luckily had a last-minute cancellation for tomorrow! Which is good, because the other night while N and H were playing in his room, N saw me leave and partially close the door behind me. Apparently he took off, opened the door, and almost got through it before H caught him. Seriously, he can low cabinet doors, and can almost reach the knob on regular doors. It's like that scene in Jurassic Park when the velociraptors figure it out too.  I also need to find a while elephant gift for work, max I think is $20-25. I can't decide if I want to go funny or nice. |

laurensc927 Your dad is awesome! I would love for my dad to dress as Santa. He has the perfect belly LOL but he doesn't look like the "typical" Santa, tan and grey, not white hair, so I feel like Gianna would just be like why's Grandpa dressed up like Santa?? Also this is another good reminder for me that I need to go to the community center at 6 today to sign us up for an in-home Santa visit. I'm so forgetful these days, but I'm trying to tell everyone about it today in hopes that if I say it enough times it will really stick.

I figure we have a limited number of years before H realizes it's grandpa lol. No belly over here he needs a pillow, and a fake beard but it works.  |
