What I thought was allergies is turning out to be a cold. I feel miserable.  

That is a bummer!! I hope you feel better soon!

Someone slashed one of the tires on our Tahoe last night at my office and the transmission on our other vehicle started going out this morning when DH was driving home from work.

FML x 1000.

I went to my first Babywearing It'll meeting. It was fun, but B got hungry and fussy so I pulled out my nursing cover and NIP for the first time ever. I had a bottle packed but I just wanted to try.
I know NIP is supposed to make you feel all empowered. I just felt awkward

The first couple times (with DS1) felt super awkward, but now it's just normal and I don't even think about it! There is just no way I could bring extra stuff like bottles, cooler etc with all the crap I already carry for the twins and DS1. Keep trying. It gets so much easier!!

So our entire basement flooded last night. Our pump failed and now we need to get a new pump, and have water lines fixed. Oh and the cost of removing everything from the basement to get it aired out. And the plumber got clay dirt all over my carpet runner.

DS1 just told me "mommy, you're my best buddy"

Made my heart melt until he came back 5 minutes later and said "oh I forgot, grandpas my best buddy, but you can still make my lunch"

This kid is gonna win husband of the year someday!

That sucks.

@aenordan‌ so sorry about your basement! That sucks!

@nlane0723‌ and your tires....UGH. Why are people asses?

@bunnyfungo‌ congrats! House buying is super exciting.

@AriaAmante143‌ congrats on your NIP adventure! It does get easier.

My random for the day is this picture. Left breast's output on the left; right's on the right. Whaaaaaaaaat??? Left has always been an overachiever compares to right but this difference is extreme.

2 more weeks and I might get stitched up. 2 more weeks...

On the plus side, my mother went back to Florida yesterday. Freedom!!

Mine are like that sometimes. Righty is always an underachiever though.

Bahaha @kirotea I do the same thing!!! DH keeps saying "she's not an alligator...she can see you" but I do it anyway lol

Sanibel21

Sorry about your basement @aenordan!

@kirotea I totally freeze in my tracks when LO pops her eyes open! I assume she can sense me whether she can see me or not, but I do it every time.

Random and dumb since we're talking about left vs right... can I pump each boob into the same bottle/storage bag?

theluckiest9

@kirotea that's hilarious. I do the same. She makes eye contact and it's like a stare down in hopes that she'll just close her eyes. Usually she doesn't.

pepperedmoth

@kirotea‌ I do the sane thing!

@WisconsinCheese12‌ they're actually about the same size, unbelievably enough....

dancer7889

I have no idea why I haven't gotten into this thread before...

@kirotea‌ I do the same thing. Except that it never works!

@aenordan‌ I'm sorry. That sucks

My dogs bark like crazy when DH or anyone for that matter comes to the door. No biggie except it always happens when DD is nursing and it startles her so badly ever time.

@Sanibel21‌ As long as it's during one sitting it's fine to pump into the same container. It causes problems when you add different temperature milk together, so don't pump one side, refrigerate it for a while then add the other side. You can also combine from multiple pumping sessions if you refrigerate both and wait to combine until they are both cold.

pepperedmoth

@Jt7dreamz‌ my LC says it can take a while, maybe weeks....

Sanibel21

Thanks @jentstwins! I'm just now starting the pumping and stashing process!

Has anyone seen @rockopera‌ recently?

I'm here!

Someone come over to my house with their baby please. I wanna go to the pool with June but we would like some company

ntdane

@WisconsinCheese12‌ I hope you're able to find it soon!

rockopera

@WisconsinCheese12‌ In the laundry? Any stacks of paper/magazines? Those are places I've found jewelry before.

pepperedmoth

@CHPhotoMama‌ what about the copper IUD? I loooooooove those things.

@LakeCountryGal‌ thinking of you and YH!

@WisconsinCheese12‌ pockets? Laundry? Near the sink? Bathroom?

CruiseGirl28

@WisconsinCheese12‌ I hope you find it. I would usually wear my ring 24/7- in the shower, bed everything.

I finally put them on a couple of weeks ago, and now I hate wearing them all the time. I feel like I'm always washing bottles/pump parts or doing something that's annoying with rings.

pepperedmoth

@CHPhotoMama‌ it's a bit invasive as it's implanted in your uterus. Heavier bleeding but in my case nothing to write home about. Can be taken out at any time. Does not impact future fertility. Mine was taken out on CD#3 and I conceived later that same cycle.

You might possibly be interested in the hormonal one. Localized hormones so it tends not to cause the same side effects as pills. Designed to last 3-5 years.

rockopera

@WisconsinCheese12‌ Yay!!!!!!

theluckiest9

@CHPhotoMama‌ thought about natural family planning (charting)? I charted to avoid for a good 5 yrs.

myfriendscallmemeg

Yay!!! @WisconsinCheese12‌ I was having separation anxiety for you!!

@CHPhotoMama‌ @addisonsmom22‌ this is the story of my life. I told DH condoms or nothing and he jumped to the pharmacy!! Haha

I told my husband this too...he still hasn't bothered. Just fine buddy, I don't really want sex anyway.

We're fighting anyway, so it's not like I care that much right now.

pepperedmoth

Ooh, @CHPhotoMama‌ I second @theluckiest9‌ 's suggestion of charting! I don 't have my cycles back yet so it's not a good option for me but is totally a good choice otherwise.

mrsdahamm

Is it a rule that it has to rain on the way to the beach?

lazyreader

Two things
1) condoms in bulk via amazon prime = awesome.

2) holy shit (aw warning). J rolled from belly to back on Monday. She's 2 months. Wtf. No. But yea!(?) 5 times in one day. Hasn't done it since.

ProudMommy030614

Colton goes through all 24 prefolds in one day! That's a lot of diaper changes!

DH was finally "discharged" from the ER. He has good poisoning and severe dehydration. After almost 6 hours in the ER we are headed home!!

DS was an angel the entire time we were there (thank god)!! I just hope he doesn't get sick!!!

Hope yh feels better soon.

I just spent 7 hours at a car dealership. With a baby.

There isn't enough wine in the world to fix this day.

karacakes98

I just caught up on the last 356 posts while I put off decorating my next cake. Procrastinator, 'tis I!

Okay, off to turn a sheet cake into a chef's coat. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

myfriendscallmemeg

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo many preggos in my life. I'm just thrilled it's not my uterus that's got an inhabitant.
