Update to my selfish whiney self...

(I admit I was over reacting just a weee bit). I have been overly emotionally the past few days.

I did resist the urge to say anything to DH last night, (and I needed to go pump at that point anyway, so I just walked away for a few minutes, that's what I was doing when I typed that post.) It did not helpe the situation when the nurse pulled the curtain in between the two of us, for DH to kangaroo.

I did mention to the nurse that if they were both able to be held we wanted to hold them both after their midnight cares but she is one who just does her own thing and likes to do a lot of their cares herself, without our help. And I think we've come a long way with this nurse because she went from not being comfortable and allowing us to hold either of them, to offering for us to hold them sometimes and being more open to us holding them when we asked.

Anyway, by the I finished pumping and went back out Blake was wrapped in a blanket in DH's arms and Addison was bundled up waiting for me. DH even said that he realized Blake was uncomfortable being like that so he asked the nurse to wrap him up instead. So while I sulked by myself, DH did figure things out for himself.

You ladies are right and I know that. Just sometimes I need a little reminder. Oh and we still got our family picture.

    So glad that you got your picture!

    And it's okay that you had a moment.  I had a moment the other night when I was told that our planned evening of "rooming in" with Kevin had become not "rooming in" and instead just coming out for cares.  Uhm, no thank you.  I love my baby but I'm not sleeping on a pull out sofa bed in the NICU on a worknight unless I get my baby in the room with me.

    It's hard to let go of expectations sometimes.

    I'm glad you are feeling better and your picture looks awesome.  I found that when I was pumping if I delayed pumping or got busy at work and forgot my mood went really downhill - quickly.  Very emotional and b*tchy.  It got bad enough that my female coworkers would ask me when the last time I pumped was and take over whatever I was doing so I could go.

    Happy Anniversary!  Sorry you had a tough start, but I'm glad you got your picture and that DH redeemed himself a bit (even if he hadn't realized you were pissed!)

    Hope you enjoyed your day (and great family shot!)
