So, having a kindergartener, a preschooler and a newborn sucks! 6 weeks old and baby has his first cold. Hes so snuffly and sneezy. He's just sitting here in a good mood, but snorting away. We slept in the living room so he could be reclined in his baby seat instead of flat on his back in his bassinet. Poor kid

Well shit... I had an appointment today to check out a weird ball feeling thing in my left breast. They think it's a cyst but they can't rule out the c word. So they are scheduling me for a mammogram and an ultrasound to figure it out. The NP that did the exam is an old friend and the look on her face was terrifying. I can't stop crying.

@scottysgirl77

As a precaution many masses in the breast are treated as possibly the "big c" - when it comes to breast "c" many practitioners feel it would be irresponsible of them not pursue further testing when it's so easily accessible and noninvasive at this stage. Between this and all of the changes occurring in your breasts due to breast feeding and being PP I would try not to be too concerned; I know that is very easy to say and hard to do, but we practice incredibly conservative medicine here, and between that and all of the action in your mammary tissue the request isn't surprising.  It could also be an abscess.  The u/s will help r/o lots of things. I've had multiple breast ultrasounds to confirm cysts, and every time I shook during the scan out of fear, but at the end was relieved that I knew my breasts were "all clear".

FX it's nothing!  Such a crappy thing to hear going into a weekend.

I'm about a week behind on randoms, but how is this for a random: This morning my kids told me they heard a kitty in DDs room. There is currently a full-grown stray cat stuck in the duct work under my house. We have been trying all morning to get it out. Now we can't find it and can't figure out where it got in. This is crazy.

Try wearing something like this for baby to hold while she nurses:

@scottysgirl77‌ I had a lump when I was 21 or so and it was a fibroid. FX that yours is nothing serious!

DH just texted me that the baby will be trying formula today because he accidentally left all of the milk I pumped yesterday in the fridge at home when he dropped DD at daycare. He somehow remembered the jar of emergency formula.

I'm upset. I know it's fine, but I worked really hard for that milk yesterday!

Oh no. She will be fine and now you just have a bit more milk in your stash!

Had an argument with MIL. She called my dad. What am I, in high school? My dad was confused as to what he was supposed to do. Ugh.

And the argument was about bringing the car seat base to Florida. She is really trying to convince me we don't need it!

All of this.

I used to work in a radiology office and we had to call patients back a ton of times after suspect mammogram results. 95% of the time the patients were totally fine. Thinking of you.

I'm breastfeeding at Target in a glider chair and someone walked by and said someone thinks they're at their own house. Cue stank eye.

It's not even about the car seat on the plane. It's the base for the car! She's all "my kids didn't have car seat bases" like we can just strap his seat in with the belt and no base. I told her if she didn't stop, we wouldn't be going to Florida at all.

Seriously, she's being ridiculous. Why does she feel the need to argue with you about that? And it's probably less about this one argument but it just seems like she keeps trying to step on your toes as a mom by downgrading your parenting decisions. I'd be so annoyed.

windwithfingers

@MrsBabe614‌ she has been pretty nuts lately over a lot of things. Don't even get me started on how she told me she'd get DS baptized behind my back. X(

If a family member said they were going to do something to/with LO behind my back I would lose my mind.

I really want to get a pedicure. I also want to ask my mom to watch dd so DH and I can go see Mockingjay part 1.

windwithfingers

Oh, I went nuts. Told her she wouldn't be able to see him without being supervised. That I'm the mom and she needs to back off. It's rough but I'm really not afraid of putting my foot down anymore.

pnwlover12

So fucking tired of the political pissing match that is constantly going on. Someone always has to be putting their dick on the table while shouting, "Look how big it is!"

@scottysgirl77‌ I hope it's nothing and everything turns out just fine.

@Dani0329‌ I wish I could punch that a-hole for you.

Just FYI, it is perfectly safe to install most carseats without a base. The base is more for convenience of taking the seat in and out of the car.

Yep. But your bossy ass MIL needs to shut it and mind her business.

First date night tonight since DD, and I'm #feelingnormal.

Good to know about bases. I'm not bringing it on the plane, I'm bringing it for the car. It doesn't matter anyway, because I just informed them we're not going to Florida with them after I got a bunch of angry texts from DH's dad. Oh well.

Were they this way before everything with your H? Or is this mostly emotionally driven for them? I hope they can figure out their shit because arguing with you doesn't help anyone. (Hugs) to you!

It's emotionally driven. They are very very upset that I took my rings off and have been pretty combative with me for the past few days. Which is why I've been trying to be patient with them, but I only have so much patience.

Ugh I'm sorry you have to deal with their shit when you're just trying to deal with your own and be a mom to that baby boy. Not fair to you at all.

That makes it so much harder to deal with, because you know that she's also in pain and her psycho is coming from a place of intense grief.  It's likely going to be incredibly difficult for her to see your life continue without her son, at least at first. Taking of the rings was probably a further confirmation that her son is truly gone, and that the world is still turning, despite that.  So many ((hugs)) for you.
