Parenting after a Loss

so far today....

i've changed 8 diapers, been splattered with projectile poop, been coated with vomit twice, changed 3 outfits for hadley (i've learned to just dress in layers so that when something i'm wearing gets soiled, i can just remove it), nursed 9 times (hello cluster feeding), and managed a 15 minute cat nap while standing (that's right, while standing and rocking hadley- thank goodness the wall was there to support us both). 

oh, and i haven't brushed my teeth.

i've also watched many episodes of a baby story and what not to wear.  if i ever leave the couch again i'll know the ins and outs of water births and how to dress for any occasion.

Re: so far today....

  • I'm sorry- sounds like you had a rough day!

  • i dont miss the mess but i do miss the hours of mindless tv.  for me it was bravo - project runway and real housewives.  i hope you have an easy night!
  • haha, napping while standing...Thats a new one!

    I hope tonight you get to sleep laying down!

  • Gotta love the projectile poo. Leo was a master at that one. His poops are more solid now, thank the lord...

    Is she growth spurting?

    Hugs...

     haha I watch all of those too!

  • i'm sorry you had such a rough day.  big hugs!
  • i'm with you on the 'what not to wear' that and the 'dog whisperer'.  it will calm down soon, promise.

    isn't projectile poop the best? add to that projectile baby boy pee. i can't believe how far that thing can shoot!

  • You know you've watched too much tv when you see a What Not To Wear: Water Births episode!

  • What a day!!! I hope it gets better.
  • haha! That sounds like most of my days right now :) I feel ya!

    And I have to add that my night time routine is filled with the Little People Big World and Jon & Kate Plus 8 while rocking Ethan to sleep after him being up for almost 3 hours straight. I didn't know that babies fought sleep this young!

    Hopefully you get some rest tonight :)
