I have been waking up earlier than normal just so I can drink coffee out of a real mug, without it getting cold, and have my breakfast before LO is up for the day. I love him but there is something about being able to drink hot coffee out of a real mug that makes me feel more human.
(I had been using a travel mug every day so that it stays hot when I can't drink it right away.)
I haven't taken a shower since Monday. I just realized it last night. I think I'll have to get up in about an hour (5am PST) just so I can get one in while dd is still sleeping.
My mother and step father are coming to see the baby and spend my birthday with me for the weekend. I have not seen her in almost 10yrs. I am not looking forward to the visit as I cannot stand my step father
I drink 1-3 beers a night, and I dont pump and dump. (At my breast feeding 101 instructor said you didn't need to really) if your too drunk to drive your too drunk to BF.
I also have a glass or two of wine, and don't pump and dump. It's perfectly fine to do it. Such tiny amounts get to your baby.
I had to leave the house yesterday. Well I got all ready went to pick lo up and I peed a little.... I didn't change said screw it and still left the house... I forgot baby wipes at home and I had two different color flip flops on. I was a hot mess.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.'
One night this week DD peed while changing her during MOTN. She got a little bit on the leg on her pjs. I didn't want to wake her up even more by changing her pjs so I used a burp cloth to dry as much as I could and put her back to bed.
I felt so bad but was so sleepy I didn't want to take a whole1.5 hours trying to get her back to sleep.
When i'm home with LO, most of the day is spent with at least one breast out. That and I only get dressed in the morning to get my mail.
Haha! I get dressed to go get the mail, too! I mean no one really cares what you are wearing! Half of the time I know I probably won't see anyone anyway.... But if I do, at least I'm dressed lol.
I accidentally scratch DS's eyelid while he was laying on his boppy. He spit out his paci and I tried to catch it before it rolled to the floor and jabbed his eye. I felt sooo bad, we both cried. It even bled a tiny bit. DH said it makes him look tough.
I think when people ask I'm going to say he scratched himself because I might cry again if they even react jokingly like I'm so mean or a bad mom, which my friends would and the ones I've have told reacted that way.

It's just the worst when we hurt them as their moms! I was so upset when I dropped my phone on ds. I totally get it!

Dont feel to bad...DD was sitting on my lap the other day and we were making faces at each other. Well she suddenly decides to head butt me, and smacks into my metal framed glasses. She had a nice little scratch. Put a little BM on it, and it was gone the next day....She cried so loud and hard though...I felt horrible
I am watching the season premiere of Scandal and not making coffee for my husband and I because I am hoping to finish this episode without LO waking up.
I try to make sure LO gets out for at least one walk a day, but the way I go about it can be very selfish. If he is being extremely fussy I will take him out just when I think I can't take it anymore because I know it will put him to sleep and I will get a little break from the fussiness. Also, if it has been raining I have put him in the stroller and wheeled him around our main floor for the same effect.
My fffc is that I've decided to start taking a very late lunch, picking up DS from daycare earlier than planned, and have him home with me for my last hour and a half of work. I just want to know my baby is getting enough rest since he doesn't nap well there yet, and he naps fine at home. Maybe once he gets used to daycare and starts taking better naps I'll let him stay the whole day. Until then, he's coming home with momma!
Oh, and the only time I'm not in yoga pants or sweats is when I have to see family or friends. Other than that, I live in them.
Preparing for flames but I had no choice. Yesterday, while out doing errands I got the sudden urge and had to poop really bad, so I decided to stop back home before the grocery store... It started to get so bad my legs were shaking, I was taping on the steering wheel trying to hold it in, I really didn't think I was gonna make it home. Now the confession: by the time I got to my house I really thought I was gonna poop my pants, I had to leave LO in the car while I ran into the house to poop. I JUST made it. She was sleeping and I was back in the car in 3 minutes and she was still sleep but I felt so guilty! I really had no choice though
TTC since July 2011
HSG normal in May 2012 followed by three unmonitored clomid cycles unsuccessful
Unexplained female infertility (My husband apparently has super sperm)
IUI # 1 Nov 24
BFP Dec 8! EDD Aug 17th, due to Preeclampsia and HELLP, Kylie Penelope was born July 30th!
It's my fault that dd sleeps in her swing at night. Her second night home was miserable and I needed a break so I put her in her swing. She slept beautifully. So she's been in her swing for 3 weeks. Every time she's sleeping and I put her in her bassinet, she wakes up. I know that I'll have to have a couple shitty sleepless nights if I want her to sleep in the bassinet.
I hate when other people try to soothe ds. I get very anxious when hes upset and i just want to make him feel better.
I sometimes have this issue with DH even, but I try not to step in because he has to learn too.
I do this, too. When dh is trying to soothe him and it's taking longer than I'd like, I just keep thinking about my bil who never learned how to take care of my niece and nephew because my sister did all the soothing. That keeps me from stepping in.

Depending on the situation, I might do this too. However, I have a garage and semi-private driveway! In fact, I have run in the house after leaving my phone inside on accident.
Married DH : 7/7/12; 3 fur babies (2 dogs and 1 cat) DS born 9/3/13; DD born 7/22/15; LO due 5/28/18 FS (age 5) and FD (age 2) to become AS/AD very soon!
I cosleep with G in bed with me almost every night. She is now starting to not like her pnp sleeper at all...and I know it's my fault. And I don't care. I rather cuddle with her than DH. (I love DH...don't get me wrong.)
I am going to a wedding saturday night and am debating pumping and dumping/getting a cab for the night. It's an oot wedding, and my mom is staying in the hotel with G so DH and I can go and have a good time. I'm more worried about being drunk around my mom than p&d milk.
I haven't taken a shower since Monday. I just realized it last night. I think I'll have to get up in about an hour (5am PST) just so I can get one in while dd is still sleeping.
You have be beat by a day...no shower here since Tuesday. I had a window last night and I chose to drink a glass of wine on the deck instead. Priorities.
I smoked a cigarette Wednesday. It was nasty and made me queasy but I smoked it all anyway. I feel satisfied. I don't feel like I want another one any time soon.
Yesterday I was sick and called out of work. DH was off and had dinner plans to go with DS to a friends house. I just sat back and let DH enjoy DS' whitching hour at this friends house while I LOL-ed in my head and loved ever minute of it. He needed to see for himself that you don't disrupt baby's dinner/bedtime routine.
DH put LO in his crib last night while he took a shower. I was asleep already, so when LO started crying, I assumed that DH had him in the nursery and stayed in bed...10 minutes later, when I got up to investigate why LO was crying, and I found him by himself, I started crying too. I also dropped my phone on LO last night while trying to stay awake through one of his (FOUR!) night feedings. Mom of the year right here (

This is me. Yesterday I had a girl compliment me when I was at the pharmacy. She said that my hair was the best ombré she's seen. Little did she know I was going on 3 days of dirty hair and it was just grown out. I just smiled and thanked her.
Ps. Roots are for trees. I need to get my hair done.

During the week I'm often in my pj's all day. I only change before DH gets home so he doesn't think I'm gross in my milk soaked old pj's. I'll also run around the house and pick up real quick so it doesn't look like I've been on the couch all day (in my old pj's)
I don't enjoy co sleeping with my son (he moves and grunts too much, so I never feel rested), but I brought him in last night just so my bf would stop trying to have sex with me.

You are not alone. Here I am in my pjs with Oreo crumbs on my chest watching The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Stay classy.

Also, out parents live a like a block away from each other and I will go out if my way to avoid driving past my mil when she does cross walk duty.
I do this, too. When dh is trying to soothe him and it's taking longer than I'd like, I just keep thinking about my bil who never learned how to take care of my niece and nephew because my sister did all the soothing. That keeps me from stepping in.
My mom is visiting and while i know she can do it since she raised four daughters. I still get an anxious twitch when i hear him start. I feel so bad.
