Parenting after a Loss

***Tuesday Evening Confessions***

Re: ***Tuesday Evening Confessions***

  • * I invited mil to lunch on the boardwalk today so I could score brownie points on my terms. Not hers.?

    * DD started to ask for a boob by nosediving into my cleavage and it never occurred to me that she might be thirsty in the heat until mil gave her the sippy cup full of water.

    * I have had to poop since 3:30pm, but didn't get the chance to because a whole bunch of things cropped up that needed to be taken care of. I'm pooping now.?

    * It bothers me when people tell me to just let her cry. And that's for sleeping, being uncomfy in the stroller, etc. Why can't people understand that what worked for them may not work for us??

    * DD wouldn't take potato off of mil's finger today and I giggled. She did take it off of my finger though and that made me giggle more. When mil tried to give it to her dd sized her up & gave her the side eye. Like "yeah right lady".

    * It annoys me when people say they're running out to get the flu shot now that swine flu is around. The flu shot is only good against the strain that is was made from, not all strains. That's why you have to get it every year. The scientists guess which strain is going to come out every year. ?

  • *I totally scratched a lady's car yesterday but didn't even realize it until I got home and saw my front bumper. ?I even chatted with the lady!!! Wish I could find her. ?I feel like such an assshole.

    *DH & I are going on our first date since DS was born (we're going to see Chris Cornell in concert again - we love him!) and although I'm excited, I have nothing to wear and it bums me out.?

    *I start climbing again on Sunday. ?It's going to be hard to pull an extra 40 pounds up 100 feet of rock :/?

  • Family called today with some possible in-home daycare that their friends recommend. After this week- I do not want to risk it and will be sticking with a center even though it's more $.

    I do not know how my current day care lady is raising kids if she cannot even tell when my son is hungry/tired!!

    I went for a walk today and it was great. Since I have gone back to work I have not worked out!! lazy....

  • *I took Sophia to the park today by myself.  We had so much fun on the swing and on a walk.  DH missed out on it.  His loss.

    *I'm tired and could probably go to bed now.  It's only 8:14 pm and I haven't eaten dinner yet.

  • * I'm so bad about indulging my chocolate cravings that I'm sure my breast milk is chocolate.

    * I've stopped cleaning Amelia's spit-up off the floor -- I let the dog get it.

    * DH is really excited for me to go back to work and get my life back; I'm dreading it.

  • * I am totally annoyed w/DH & have no idea why, specifically.  Of course, I could go through a laundry list of trivial things that could be the culprit.

    * I am practically counting the seconds until Saturday when I get my first pp massage.  I need it SO bad!

  • * DH is in PA working for the week and I am sad. Jocelyn has been going to sleep around 8-ish (a new victory for us!) but then I am alone and bored until it is time for me to go to bed :(

    * My mom's co-worker had a baby a week after me. I saw her yesterday and she doesn't even look like she has had a baby EVER! Let alone 3 in the last 5 years.

    * I have had no pp body issues, until confession #2 above. I still have so much baby weight to lose, but I make no attempt to do anything about it. Seriously, I still look at least 4 months pg. It is starting to get depressing.

    * I have become a lurker and I don't like it, but by the time I read a post and the replies I either: a) have nothing new to add or b)...... I guess I don't really know what "b" is. I should start responding to posts more :) 

  • I haven't officially weighed in for our group yet because I weigh in tomorrow for WW. Oh, and because today when I weighed myself, I had gained. I am holding out that it was just because I had one full boob. I didn't eat as well last week, but I still didn't even use my extra point! 

    I think I would rather let Austin sleep in my bed than to listen to him CIO. I know that this is totally selfish, but I just keep holding out that this is a phase. 

    The Andy Griffith Show pisses me off! They are so stupid!! DH loves it! He always watches it when they show marathons. Oh and every night on TV land. 

  • I watch the biggest loser while eating fast food - at least tonight it was a small turkey/cheese sub from quiznos instead of mcdonalds.

    I love my job, but lately it hasn't been as fun and it makes me wish I was home with DD instead of sitting at my desk.?

  • * I went to the beach today - in New England in April! It was freakin' 98 degrees out when we left! Had a great time. Wish I could drop out of school/work and do that every day.?

    * I went out with my ex-BF last night. I know a few people aren't going to be too excited about this, but he wants to prove that he's "worthy" of me (his words). I've been feeling lately like he's "the one" and I'm happy I'm giving him this chance. He wants to start over from square one, so he just kissed me good night (like a first date kiss).?

    * ?I feel awful that I'm going to break things off with D, but it's been way too much work with him to get through the first month, and I've noticed he's stopped trying.

    me too! I had a conversation with my mom about C and his sleep and she told me, "he is only a baby ONCE. He will grow up and then he's gone. He will figure it out. I know you're tired but enjoy it. He's already 6 mos old. He will figure it out. He's so busy...you know that."

    I think my mom is right on. That said, he's in his crib. I'm fairly certain that he will go in my bed before the night is over. 

  • *I haven't eaten dinner yet and it's 9:30 pm.  I'm getting pretty hungry.

    *There a Night at the Museum sequel??  So stupid.

    *I'm still not speaking to my husband.  He was an ass and I have no interest in speaking to him tonight.

    *I love bath time.  Sophia's now sitting in the big tub and LOVES to play in the water.  I love watching her play!

  • *I too am watching the Biggest Loser and eating fast food - and it was an entire Chipotle burrito.  Now I'm chipping away at my chocolate Easter bunny.

    * DH is sitting next to me with EC on his head.  He wanted me to confess this.  We took a picture...or two.

    Agreed! Austin is also in his own crib right now, but unless he STTN by some act of God, he will be in my bed by morning! It doesn't help that he is so freaking snuggly and sweet!

  • I am totally overwhelmed being a new parent and hope I am not screwing up my child in any way. 

     I wish I could get rid of her gas pain....it is getting horrific to watch her squint her little face up, frown/fuss, and kick her legs.
