Monday Check-in

ksspiff

Hey ladies,

 I hope everyone is having a decent (if not fantastic day)

 This is the weekly check-in to see how everyone is.  Have you done anything great this past week? Anything you need to share, vent or ask?

In an effort to continue growing a community, I'm going to pose some more 'getting to know you' questions:

Married? Single? Divorced? Widowed? Other?

Working Mom? Stay at Home Mom? Work at Home Mom? Doing one and wishing for something else?

What other bump boards to you post or lurk on?

My week went really well.  There were a few night where DD had a harder time falling asleep than usual, which usually ramps my anxiety, but overall it was good.  We went on 'vacation' this weekend to the beach with my parents and to the pumpkin patch with my inlaws.  DD did really well with all the people, activities and crazy schedule.  DH did well with all the packing, driving and crazy schedule (he's not big on trips...) and when they are doing well, I feel confident.

I have been married for 5 years to my college sweetheart.  We are both nerds and his first memory of me was "that pretty girl in the back of the freshman engineering class."

I'm a working mom.  It was really hard to come back to work, but because of the anxiety that came with stay-at-home-mom responsibility during maternity leave, it's a good decision for me.  I'd like to try part-time work for a while to see if that would be the best balance, but that's not an option for my current job.

 I post on working mom, 6-9 month.  I lurk on s-a-h moms (to see the other side), parenting, attachment parenting.

My week went ok..I started Prozac for one day only for them to take me off of it and switch me to Zoloft the very next day...and they haven't even called in my prescription so uggghhh.

Me and the hubs have been fighting lately..mostly me freaking out on him for stupid stuff. DD has allergies ridiculously bad and since she's not 2 yet there's nothing we can give her for it . DS has been eating good..and sleeping ok-ish..he has to sleep on me so i'm still on the couch (me & DH haven't slept in the same room since I gave birth).

I've been married a little over a year. We're eachother's opposites, i'm loud and oppinionated and he's shy and nerdy lol. We have a weird background ( I was 3 months PG with DD when we first met and got together) but we're happy ( when i'm not flipping out on him lol).

I'm a SAHM and have been since before DD was born so almost a year and a half now. At times i'd like to go back to work and realisticly we will have to be a working parent household so I know it's coming soon. I know it'll be hard to leave them, but I actually look forward to days spent with adults lol.

I post/lurk on many boards...Sept 2010 & 2011, 0-3 Months, Blended Families, Breastfeeding, Parenting, this board now, SAHM, & 2U2.

Day late but whats new...

My week sucked ass!!!  Last Sunday my dad went up to the store to get his morn coffee and passed out cold by the front doors.  He messed up his face really bad.  He had a bleed in his stomach, they are pretty sure that the reason for the passing out is due to his heart.  So he spend 5 days in ICU and then was transported to our loc University's hosp Sunday night.  He had some test done yesterday.  While doing the test his heart stopped twice and they had to bring him back.  They are doing a few more test today and prob but in a pacemaker tonight or tomorrow. 

So ya on top of all my other stress and depresstion now I have this going on.  I am working full time, dealing with my dad (and my mom cause she is a mess) then go home to a messy house and crying baby.  I really do love my little man and feel like such a horrable mother that I would rather fold laundry then give him a bath.  Thank goodness for SO other or I would be a total mess.  Is it bad I really don't care at this point if dishes are all over the house and its taken over by dust? 

Then on top of this...we found out that SO will more then likely be moved to 2nd shift in the next 30 days.  HELP ME!!!
