I ended up doing a last minute night before shop at Barnes and Noble (where I was picking up DD's damn Myla the Unicorn thing) and got C a set of animal puppets, which he loved. He got a musical walker from my SIL and one of those toddler sports things with the basketball hoop and a soccer goal from BIL, so I'm glad I didn't get him anything big. pixiepink24 we have a learning tower/helper stool and it's great! C hasn't tried to climb on it yet, but DD uses it all the time to help in the kitchen and get stuff from the cabinet and fridge (it's both a blessing and a curse...). Ours is an IKEA hack one that someone local to us made for $40. If you know anyone handy, there are easy tutorials to make them online.

Our #1 gift the girls got was a step 2 ride on roller coaster. They've been playing on it constantly since they got it. Dd2 has already figured out how to get the roller coaster back to the top so she can ride it without my help 👏 she's getting into so many things right now though and keeps getting hurt because she's climbing everything like her sister but can't balance as good. This is the age where dd1 got really hard and dd2 is following in her footsteps 😒

Hey! Tapatalk is acting up so I can't see the most recent posts but I hope everyone is enjoying the Holidays.
MH got his vasectomy on three 20th and the recovery has been rough so I'm majorly burnt out which is the opposite of how I should feel since I'm on vacation from work 12/20 until 1/2.

He was out of commission the day of and the next day and then took it easy all weekend, but still felt good enough to go to a soccer game. He's a regular snip snip evangelist now lol. Sorry YH is having a tough time, Nymeria

I finally got the bug on Thurs night, and felt like garbage on Friday and Saturday and am finally feeling better. I think my milk supply is way down, C was wanting to nurse a ton and didn't seem to be getting a lot. Hoping it'll go back up again now that I'm better and trying to hydrate myself extra. He only really nurses evenings during the week

Dramaphile - Worrying about supply just makes illnesses so much worse. Hope it bounces back for you. And sorry to hear you did end up getting sick - I was hoping you'd get to avoid it.

Hopefully your supply bounces back up quickly!

I started at a new gym last week and it's been kicking my ass. It feels so good to get back into exercise and I can feel my energy level getting higher even though I'm exhausted and sore from the high intensity workouts.

That's awesome you're already seeing a change in your energy level. I keep using still nursing as an excuse to not really worry about food or exercise, but that's going to come to an end soon enough.

Starting a week-long preview of the MUTU exercise system today, which is focused on core strength and postpartum recovery (diastasis recti, pelvic floor weakness, bladder leaks, back pain, etc). I hope I like it and can stick to it, I really need help with my pelvic floor and I'm sick of having to wear pads in case I cough.

I've been feeling weak when lifting things so I did that lay on the floor poke your engaged ab muscles at home diastasis recti test and I can definitely feel a separation.

I've been feeling weak when lifting things so I did that lay on the floor poke your engaged ab muscles at home diastasis recti test and I can definitely feel a separation. You can still sign up if you want, they send you the videos by email and also there is a FB group. I think the first actual workout is tomorrow. here's day 1, just a DR test (it says video 2, but they changed the order, I guess) mutusystem.com/mutu-taster-2?inf_contact_key=813d73b829af645a33c9fd3fd2509b381b0a3f0fd3ee5d9b43fb34c6613498d7and Day 2: mutusystem.com/mutu-taster-1?inf_contact_key=6d6e1b1a9884d200bf67cba03c21bd7dd18a532c4142cb79caf2b269de1401fa

Has anyone here (that's left 😟) had Lasik? I'm finally getting it done next Friday! I'm so excited but also nervous. I've been waiting to do this until after kids/nursing and now it's finally the time! 😬
