Mom flew back this morning. ☹️ Today is my first day home alone with the newborn. I’m not too worried. I am worried about my first day home alone with both him and toddler but since dh is spacing out some days off through the holidays, it won’t be until Jan when I’m more healed. Dd cried out so dh brought her into our bed at 1:30. So then for 4 am feeding I went in her room to feed, but per usual DS was fussy and wouldn’t go down without rocking. So at one point I looked down and our whole family was in our queen bed. Everyone else asleep but mom. 😒 We had E in our bed last night. Thankfully we have a King and DS is pretty good about sleeping in his bassinet.

First night on my own with 2. H left to return to his deployment. Cue all the ugly crying I could muster today. My eyes will be swollen for days now. We had 1 enormous meltdown from DD1 at bedtime, resulting in her being up until close to 11 and then a blow out diaper by DD2 which resulted in her screaming and waking up DD1. Feeling a little overwhelmed tonight. April cannot get here soon enough. 😞 Ugh that sounds very difficult. Hugs and love from me.

babydsmama you're amazing! Is your DD1 in any type of daycare? Thank you for saying that. It really means a lot. At the moment she is not. She was when we were in TX bc I was taking classes, but when we moved in June I withdrew her to save some money since most of the time someone is home at our house. Now, I’m trying to figure out an activity for her to do that gets us both out of the house and gives her some interaction with kids who aren’t her cousins.

I did another LC weighed feeding today and DS gained almost a lb since last Wed!!
One side of my incision started hurting today and I figured I pulled something by moving quick, but then I noticed it’s a bit red and hard. I hope I don’t have an infection. I have a dr appt scheduled tomorrow so we will see.

That's great about DS ldubhawksfan. I also have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. I'll see if my lifting and driving restrictions are done.

We are going on a 9.5 hour drive tomorrow to my grandparents....with a newborn and a 17 month old. I need a drink.
Also nervous about having both big and little in a room with us for the next 3 nights. Should be interesting.
