I can't win. Dd only got up once (!!!) but ds started crying at 5. FFFC: I was going to let him cry and resettle but mh went in a brought him into our bed. Whyyyyyyyyyyy? Of course ds didn't want to cuddle with his father, he just be all up in my business so my last hour of potential sleep was full of wiggles and head butting. Now he's bringing me books to read and I'm trying to explain that mommy can't see the words until after she's finished her coffee.

The stomach bug came for M last night. When I went in to get her this morning, she was covered in dry puke. I feel so bad that she was like that for so long but she didn't make a peep overnight and I didn't see it on the monitor. So I'm home with her today and hoping I can squeeze in at least some work.

Oh no Lakes - I'm sorry for the crappy morning. The last time DH brought DD into bed with us, I left to sleep on the couch. After being kicked and head butted and rolled over, he learned. Never again lol. Ugh. I'm so sorry about the stomach bug carrots. Poor little one.

Last night was non-nursing to sleep and paci-free night #2. B is doing alright with it. He fussed for 20 minutes the first night to go down, then only 10 minutes last night. I have my fingers crossed that tonight will be <5 and then we'll be in the clear.

Amazing how that number is magic!

Ugh guys send some good thoughts for my sister. Her 4 day old baby was admitted to the hospital last night for dehydration. Praying so hard that he's ok and for her and her H. I think she's feeling some pretty crushing guilt right now on top of the exhaustion and postpartum hormones and my heart is hurting for her.

Well. Here's pp period #2 out of the blue with no warning. Normally I get some cramping but haven't felt a thing. I'm leaving for circle time and errands in 30 minutes. Thank god it happened now and not while I was sitting on the library carpet for an hour. 😬

I can't imagine what she's feeling right now. Fx they're able to put everything right quickly. Was she having trouble with nursing?

ellabee she didn't think they were having any trouble but he went 20 hours without a wet diaper yesterday. I mentioned having an LC check for a tongue or lip tie - couldn't that make it hard for him to transfer even though he seems latched? Her milk hasn't come in yet either but hopefully once it does, things will turn around. It sounds like he's getting the right care now but makes me nervous there's some underlying other issue.

My SIL had her first baby last night. I'm really excited! This is my first niece! I am a bit... jealous? I'm not sure if the right word but her labor was basically what I had hoped for during both my pregnancies. I'm trying not to let it bring me down because it's selfish and unfair but... ::sigh::, I will always wonder what it's like to give birth vaginally. Sorry for being such a butthead. I need to focus on what matters: that my SIL had a safe delivery and gave birth to a perfect little girl (she really is super perfect and beautiful!)

carrots, I'm sorry about the stomach issues, that's the worst and I will be thinking about your sister and her baby. heybulldog, I totally understand where your coming from about the birth. I get jealous all the time about pregnancy stuff, people who get pregnant easy and just have easy straight forward pregnancies even though I have two wonderful girls and it doesn't really matter how I got them. I'm sorry that you didn't get to have the experience you imagined and it's ok to have those feelings.

Omg hugs for everyone. Lakes sorry for the bad sleep. carrots hope your little one feels better and your sister and her baby get well soon that's so sad and I know Mom guilt is eating her up. So remember when I said I would get a massage yesterday? I got rear-ended on my way there, luckily Q wasn't with me and it was very minor. Can everyone just get a redo on this week?

Oh no ambiguousmango! Glad Q wasn't with you but be sure to check the car seat manual if you had one in the car. That is the opposite of a relaxing massage!

Omg I hadn't even thought of that, it was only the base in my car not the seat and literally just a bump. (Like he was going less than 5 miles an hour) but I will definitely look at the manual when I get home. Ugh!!!!!

Random pop up thunderstorms mean my kids boycotted their naps. Boo hiss. Our play date is still on until the next wave of storms.

Instead of frozen pizza we elected to crash MILs house for dinner. She made us steak, corn on the cob and an amazing salad. So much win.

Also, night #3 sans paci and nursing to sleep = 0 minutes of fussing before sleep. More winning!
