Fucking Motorola video monitor! The sound must have went off on the parent unit at some point last night (between 2-4:30) so now it's just has video and no sound!!! Wtf!! It's broken and Google says that it happens a lot with that monitor. Guess I'll be sleeping on the couch in my son's room again tonight I can't wait until tomorrow when I can call customer service and get answers!
What makes me so mad is that he was in a different position (and he never moves in his sleep) which means he cried himself into that position for anywhere up to 2.5 hours. I feel so terrible!
@phishgirl29, how far apart are your rooms? When my lo was just 6 weeks old our dr recommended turning the monitor off. She said if he needed something we would hear him. She was right, he wakes up still a few times a night and I hear him each time. So if your rooms are not too far away, he may not have cried for as long as you think. So don't be too hard on yourself
@phishgirl29 that's hard but you have to think positive thoughts - chances are he did not cry 2.5 hrs. My baby now rotates all the way around without a peep and just started to do that randomly one day. And I am SURE if he cried some, he will never remember it and won't be scarred. You've done a great job of being there for him all the time. He trusts you and one bit of crying wouldn't change that.
I'm at the in-laws and we've all been awake and hanging out since 7. It's ten and LO was fussy and ready for a nap. I got him asleep and I'm holding him, DH txt me that they are ready to do presents. We flew all the way here, messed up our sleep schedule and you can't wait for us to do presents ? :-q
By the way that post is so disturbing I don't know what disgust me more. Trying to BF your grand baby or piercing their ears? Both situations make me feel like those people are not right in the head and would never be left unsupervised with LO.
@stargazer763, thanks I thought I was over reacting. But it's his first Christmas I wanted pictures with him and his cousin opening presents and now he's going to be doing his alone. He's the only baby and I think they could have waited for him to be done with his nap. I'm feeling very homesick for my own family right now.
@34Blondie and @CindyRelluh I know! I would be so effing mad if someone pierced by kid's ears, let alone at 2 weeks old and at HOME!
But that other awesome nugget in there, I just have no words. I don't even know what I would do if I caught my MIL trying to BF my kid. Brain explosion.
Whaaaaat???? She did it at home???!! Reading fail on my part. No words.
I don't have room in our house and I like everything to have its place. I'm considering a plan to re-gift some of the things to the other side of the family next year. Going to draw up this plan while I still remember who gave what. I love my new nook, thick wool socks and chewbeads necklace though!
My chew bead necklace was my favorite shower gift @lizzybizzy80! My LO loves it now and I can wear it without looking like a fool which is an added bonus.
@lb80 re-gifting is the way to go!! Nearly all my birthday party gifts are re-gifts in fact, we had unexpected relatives come into town and we re-gifted our own stuff!!
@phishgirl29 I love it! Anything to help keep B's hands off my hair and glasses. I wore it today and DH's extended family thought I was brave for wearing jewelry.
@WasNotWas my SIL almost re-gifted me with a beer making kit I gave my brother. I'm hoping she found someone to give it to. We'll just keep passing the presents until they find their forever homes!
ETA Sorry for being a posting whore, I feel like I'm just coming up for air. DH's family is like five times the size of mine.
ETAA oh my god, I hope I didn't kill the thread of all threads.
@majwv8 They are made of this great rubbery material that is great for teething, plus my husband got a MLB-themed teether. I've seen the necklaces in some baby boutiques, website below https://www.chewbeads.com/

Edited: Scratch that, the Duck Dynasty cookbook is the first to go, but who would I give it to?
