Insomnia Club-Come on In.

I pumped and then changed and fed Noah. DH did the last diaper and he butt was hanging off and I had to change Noah's clothes and I wasn't happy he had to sit in that. He is on a 3 1/2-4 hour schedule from the NICU and we aren't supposed to stimulate him too much so he only gets changed when he wakes up to eat. Poor thing.

Edit: if he poops and we notice he of course gets changed.

I'm jealous! Ozzy is STILL on the 3 hour schedule from the NICU.

Hearing all these stories of babies up in the middle of the night, still makes me want to hold mine. At this point it sounds like such a nice trade-off: if not sleeping means I'm holding my little one

DD said last night that the baby girl will come in 3. Or on 3. So...maybe Friday after my appointment? Either Friday or Monday....

Wow, I really should sleep, but what's the point? I've already gotten 5 hours tonight, why bother.

Last time zone so its 1:30 ish here. SO blew up 6 fountain fireworks (ones where we bought at Walmart) and 6 Chinese firecrackers. My feet are swollen and so ready for bed..if insomnia let's me.

Happy New Years ladies. SO said something to me that made me teary when we got a chance to sit down after midnight: "So..its definitely a January baby.." That sentence stop everything that was going on and made me think.. yup, its for sure, we are having a January baby.

MrsGraham06

@RedSaffron - If you're awake, I'm here to chat It's 5:40 here, and I guess I'm up for the day...until nap time.

MrsGraham06

Yikes! I'm kind of hoping I have the baby today or tomorrow, so that when I leave the hospital it's not 3 degrees out!!! But that's our high for today as well...

RedSaffron

@MrsGraham06 its 2:20 am and I really in need of sleep. I will try to close my eyes, but will come back if I can't sleep. Fx that you get your wish on your baby!

aessary03

I'm never going to get any freaking sleep. If Ozzy isn't wide awake kicking around, he's crying because he's hungry. I give. I'm just gonna sleep all day. Cool?

I'm jealous of both of you @megs12914 & @aessary03! I'd love it if Lily was on a three hour schedule! She's up every two hrs at night and yesterday I woke her every two hours or so during the day since she hasn't started to gain weight yet. My boobs hurt and I'm so tired.

I take it all back lol! Ozzy has been up all night! We slept for 2 hours and that's it. I'm so tired. So right now I'm jealous of your every 2 hours!

aessary03

@jessicabcairns I'm hoping for the hot med student again for you too!

megs12914

@jessicabcairns I tried promising to be good and it didn't work. Sorry to be a buzzkill.

kosbo06

@jessicabcairns still waiting on that picture!!!

@RedSaffron, you are a rock star at this insomnia thing... I was finally able to get some sleep last night!

kosbo06

jessicabcairns said:

@kosbo06 - me too! I haven't seen the doctor since just gots me some awesome nurses!

But hey! No baby yet! That's good right?

megs12914

@jessicabcairns I'm trying to think how exactly you'd get that picture. It'd be awesome if you just told him the truth.

"Umm excuse me but I need a man candy pic. Could you just stand a little to the right...yeah that's good!"

kosbo06

@jessicabcairns DO IT!!!! You can even use me if needed lol

mommygrams0730

Officially happy new year ladies!

I tried to sleep, but it was definitely restless from about 2-3, then I finally feel asleep until about 5:30ish when I woke up to pee. Back to sleep until 8:30 when dd was ready to get up! Hoping for a nap later, but I'm scared I won't be able to sleep tonight and I go back to work (kindergarten teacher) tomorrow and actually have to wake up with my alarm!

@aessary03 if it makes you feel better, Lily had horrendous gas this am and I didn't sleep from 2-6am. Plus her farts even woke my husband. For someone so tiny she packs a huge punch!

Lol, her and Ozzy would get along GREAT! They could fart up a storm together!

He finally fell asleep at 6:45. He was awake again by 8:30. I was like, oh you suck, child.lol

RedSaffron

Good Morning Ladies. I totally crashed @kosbo06 you give me too much credit haha. Any signs of baby?

@jessicabcairns glad to hear you didn't make it on the newspaper x) and you got the best sleep in forever.
You should tell that hot med-student that you want memories of your child's birth so you want to take pictures of some nurses

kosbo06

@RedSaffron nope... No baby... Not even a contraction..

kosbo06

@jessicabcairns do it!!! Then I can live vicariously through you

RedSaffron

@kosbo06 Baby Kosbo must like it in there! Well, welcome the New Year with dates and sex haha. I saw your post comment about Mr. Kosbo thinking going on a date will induce lol.

@jessicabcairns *squinty eyes* it's gotta be one of us. I might have pushed my luck by having New Year morning sexy time lol How is everything so far at the hospital?

MrsGraham06

Well, I've been having contractions all day...stronger than on previous days, but 20 minutes or more. Well dang!

And it looks like bellamatson had her baby

kosbo06

@jessicabcairns yes!!!!!! Can't wait to see hot nurse!

RedSaffron

@jessicabcairns You can pretend to take a group photo of the nurses, but zoom in on the hot ones! I hope things progress for you soon.

@MrsGraham06 FX that you will have your baby soon!

I'm having some cramps(it's a sign?) and I think I need to put a bag of frozen peas on my lady parts.

kw42775

I finally fell asleep around 6am and slept all day. I guess I will be up again all night...boo!

kosbo06

@LadyFilet I'm here! Just up watching the new season of Dance Moms.

katags

I'm here. I've been in bed for 2 hours and haven't fallen asleep yet. I have a cold so the stuffy nose and sinus pressure aren't helping.

katags

@ladyfilet

You should eat some banana bread. I made some with bourbon and chocolate chips today and I really want to eat it right now but I'm trying to hold out for breakfast!

katags

Chips and salsa sounds good too! I can't believe I'm hungry right now! :-/

Downton Abbey will be my maternity leave project. DH and I watched 2 seasons before he got bored with it, and I can't wait to have some time without him home so u can get caught up!

RedSaffron

@ladyfilet heyy, its 8:20 ish here, but I ate a lot at dinner so I'm probably gonna be up with a sore stomach in a couple of hours..
Are you gonna be working until you give birth?

megngregk

Checking in. Didn't read all the last 6 pages but I fell asleep around 9 and have been back up since 11. It's going to be a very long day tomorrow. Bleh. Hope you insomniacs are able to get some rest.

RedSaffron

@megngregk the 6 pages are really random and all over the place so its alright haha. Hope you get some rest, this thread is like a place to talk about anything that's keeping your mind up

curlyfries1079

Not sure if u guys are awake again... its been awhile since I have been on the blog but happy belated new year. I'm currently very wide awake and open to chat it up.

 

RedSaffron

@LadyFilet I can't imagine working all throughout the night and you been doing it for years. Lots of kudos. It might work out in your advantage with baby waking up in the middle of the night.

cowscrub

Hello ladies.. Signing in for a little bit. Last night I lurked hoping if I didn't start I wouldn't stay awake.. Well I should've known better. I was up and miserable for more than half the night so tonight I'm throwing my hat into the ring.
@ladyfilet my SO would be soo mad if I found another addiction besides candy crush. I live in that game.
@katags I chips and salsa do sound amazing right now!

RedSaffron

@sapatel1 yikes! I hope your lady bits feel better. I'm so jelly, I can't wait to have my baby in my arms. What is Aayan's name mean? I like it the sound and spelling of it.

megs12914

Did you ladies forget about me? I'm here.

megs12914

@sapatel1 are you home now?
