Re: *August Beach Babies Monday check-in*
I'm still here.
No progress from last week.
Monday QOTD: How do you feel about your mother/MIL taking care of the LO? Will you leave baby with them? At what age?
I have no concerns about either my mom or MIL taking care of LO at really any age. My only concern about leaving LO with anyone is feeding.... so once we get breastfeeding/pumping on a schedule and I'd be able to leave LO for an hour or two, I'd jump at the chance! Unfortunately, my mom lives about 2.5 hours away, and my MIL lives 16 hours away.
I lucked out with my MIL, and my mom and I have always been close, esp. since I outgrew that teenage-young adult-angst stage. I absolutely trust both of them with my baby, and plan on letting them keep him as soon as they'd like. I know the first 2-4 weeks I really won't be able to give him up much b/c I will be demand feeding until we both get the hang of the boobies, but once we're on a set feeding schedule, my doors are wide open.
And, while we're all here, is there anyone more freaking overdue than me now?
I'm starting to think this little girl is going to be a Sept baby instead of an Aug baby...but I'm still hoping.
I have a growth ultrasound scheduled to see if she is too big to come down like my OB seems to think (I think she is just a fine size....shes been measuring on track at both my 20 wk and 34 wk u/s) But I figure it will give me something to do this afternoon and I get to take a look at LO.
I'm fine with MIL watching LO...so long as she is not cooking! (Sorry that was mean...but cooking is not her forte!) At the end of october through mid november the 2 grandmas will be splitting the month watching her because DH and I both need to work then.
Monday QOTD: How do you feel about your mother/MIL taking care of the LO? Will you leave baby with them? At what age?
My mom will be a big help with LO. I trust her more than I trust myself. I'm very comfortable with the baby staying with her. She bought everything a baby would need for when he visits.
As for MIL, I feel the complete opposite. She is DH stepmom (his mom has passed). She has no children of her own and I don't think she would be comfortable with LO until he is around 3 years old.
IT"S MY EDD!!!
Still here with no change from last week.
MQOTD: I trust my MIL and Mom both to be great with Jacob. I will leave him with them whenever they feel they are ready to take care of him by themselves even if its just long enough for me to take a relaxing bath or run some errands.
My mother will be watching the baby when I go back to work.
Not sure how I feel about my MIL watching the baby. I trust her to take good care of him but her house is really dirty, so it would have to be at my house.
I was 3cm and 50% at my first internal last Thursday. Had some bloody show and tons+tons of BH this weekend ~ fingers crossed for the real deal soon!
QOTD: I don't worry about my mom at all, I know she'll be great with LO. She'll be staying with us after the birth.
My MIL, not so much. Their house is disgusting and they can barely take care of themselves. But we'll see how things go.
Still here and feeling craptastic.
My mom will be a big help with the baby. I worry about leaving her alone with him sometimes just cause she's a little flighty but I suppose I turned out okay right? My mother in law will be good with teh baby but won't see him as much because she works a lot.

Monday QOTD: How do you feel about your mother/MIL taking care of the LO? Will you leave baby with them? At what age?
We experience this with DD and my mom will not be watching LO, either one. I'd rather have them in daycare. It's much more work for me to try and get DD back on track with time outs and behaving once she comes back from grandma's house even if it's only for a few hours.
DD will be going to preschool and LO will be going to day care for 3 hours a day M-F. It's a much better trade off than what we were going through.
PG wise....i'm still here. No baby yet. Due date of August 22nd has come and gone and Aden Christopher is being stubborn. DD was 3 days late, so i'm hoping that he's only 3 days late as well. I have a dr's appt tomorrow, so we'll see what she says. She had talked about inducing me at last weeks appt. She said we could do it tomorrow or wait until 41 weeks, which is Saturday. I just want him out!
