    Okay, I can't stand my hair anymore. Normally I hate myself with hair shorter than shoulder length, but I'm honestly about to take the scissors and go all 4-year-old medieval on it!

    If I post a pic of myself, could anyone tell me my facial shape? I've tried to figure it out and I don't seem to fit in any of the "usual" ones. =/

    Can't hurt to try right? Best hairdo I've ever had was corn rows. Really, best ever.

    I've always wanted to do this too (post a pic of myself)! But more for wanting the stylish, fancy ladies that know a lot of hair to recommend something that would compliment my face.

    That, too! XD My SIL is a cosmetologist, I just haven't asked her about my face shape. Trying to get a jumpstart on something that hopefully won't look ridiculous on me. :P

    Is it bad that I'm using the Friskies Cat Fishing game I picked up for the cat for Alera to interact with...? >.>;; ETA: she loves diving forward with her mouth open to "catch" the fish on my phone, and hilariously is actually kind of good at it! Thank God my phone is in an Otterbox, it looks like it's been slimed. XD
    Lol, I was doing that yesterday on my iPad! I think she likes making the water ripple. I love the fact that after a couple of minutes it say, "you won!"

    I just read Melody's story. My heart breaks for them. I would happily contribute to a sunshine mission, but honestly if she changed her name, she may want privacy and time to grieve instead.

    @Vinny424‌ -I would say a lipstick in the same color family or temperature (warm or cool). Not matchy matchy, but not orangey or coral. I almost never wear lipstick. My DH hates it, so I only wear it on girls nights.

    My poor baby is teething and miserable. Slept through the night twice (first time ever) and last night was up 5 x and cried all day...

    So, DS is getting an ultrasound next week to check on something.  It is probably nothing (hydrocele), but there is a chance it will require surgery (hernia).

    I'm trying not to freak out about it, but my brother had the same thing and had to have surgery (I have no idea if there's a genetic component to this), and - this is totally irrational - but I had a kitten who had to have hernia surgery when I was in 4th grade, and she had a bad reaction to the general anesthesia and died, so I always freak out a little more than necessary about that stuff.

    Good luck with the shots and teeth, ladies! After the little chiclets came all the way through we saw a night and day difference with Sullivan (sleep, attitude) so hang in there until it breaks all the way through the gums!

    Coffe is going to be what gets me through the day. DD woke up to nurse at 12, so I got back to sleep around 12:30 or so, and then DH decided to shower at 1, so I was awake again until at least 1:45ish, and then dd woke up again at 2:30, so I pretty much didn't actually get to sleep for the night until 3, and got up at 6. So tired! At least it's Friday!

    @janellemj928 rad!

    The accountant in me wants to start a spreadsheet...

    Do it!

    Also, accountants are awesome. My degree is in accounting :D

    Edit: I have a pumping app on my phone that will export all my data to excel. It makes me irrationally happy...

    My mom's best friend's daughter works for the local sheriff office and she just called to tell us that my cousin was arrested again. He's my age, actually only two weeks younger. I feel so bad for my uncle

    I hope this weekend goes well. But we started off with waking up twice last night after sttn and up for the day at 0530. And his 4 month appointment and shots are smack in the middle of morning naptime. DH is going out of town.

    I also just realized that when I told DH to pick up baby Tylenol, he got children's and it says ages 2-6. Gotta correct that on our way home in case we need it.

    Just ask your doctor for the dosing information and make sure you have a syringe. No need to buy new Tylenol!

    I was going to say this! It should be the same strength, 160mg/5ml. You can even show the pedi if you're worried. And the DS's office can probably give you a syringe.


    I would be worried about a pediatrician that didn't know the FDA required children's and infants Tylenol to be the same suspension as a couple years ago! That being said, I feel like a educate people on that all the time because their doctor said only infant.

    I have in occasion run into different suspensions still. But these were usually migrant workers and people who didn't realize the Tylenol was expired. You would think they'd do the same for IBU but even in this house I have 2 bottles with different concentrations...

    Okay, so anyone who wouldn't mind being included in my "study" can either post their pumping output here or PM to me and I'll add to a spreadsheet. :D

    What are we studying?

    DS had shots today too. Cried for a second and stopped as soon as I picked him up. After dealing with a kid who basically screamed his way through his first 2 mos of life, I feel like we're kind of getting some relief.

    And he was also 70th %ile length, 25th for weight. He was 50ish for weight at 2 mos. my dd did the same thing....
    I'm wondering if I make skim milk! Supply is fine, I pump 16-20 oz/day away from him and he seems content after eating. Hopefully "real" food at 6 mos will help plump him up.

    @MrsW26‌ dd dropped from the 68th to the 16th between her one week and one month check. After constant weight checks her pedi finally realized that she's going to be smaller and grow slower. She's just over 12 lbs at 4.5 months. Just wanted to share our situation so you know it could happen.

    I took fenugreek for a while to increase my production. It helped a little bit. More milk tea helped more for me. I think it depends on the person which supplement works for them

    Haha nope! We rent one in a different place for a week every year. We want to make it a family tradition! This year's cottage is conveniently located by a ton of antique shops, a drive in movie theatre and loads of wineries. COINCIDENCE?

    Non. :D
    That sounds perfect. 8-> Have tons of fun! :)
