@LJUTCMOMMY and @coraggiosa it was very awkward. No, she didn't apologize. It was as if it didn't happen. It was extremely loud and gross. Obviously I tried to keep it professional but my God...why? I don't know if she was a recent PP mommy.

My supply is plummeting!!

( I talked with DH this weekend about quitting nursing, or nursing morning and night then supplement throughout the day starting when she is 6 months old. ..so one more month of BF and Pumping. This morning, but supply is just sad. =( I have no game plan yet how I will supplement, what I will use, etc. I'm just stressed.

I'm effing tired. LO has been waking up every 30 minutes over night, which means I haven't slept in 3 days. So I drop LO off with my mom today, with the full intention of taking a well deserved nap...and now I can't sleep. Not even a little drowsy. I could kick a puppy I'm so angry.

It sounds like we're living similar lives! We have been supplementing, but I too had the same talk with DH. He's supporting me in whatever I choose, but it still sucks to make the decision :-( Hoping your day gets better and know we're all here for you!

My bitch is that I am soooo over being the bills lady... I handle all of the finances in our family... something I initially welcomed with open arms. But recently... it just adds too much stress. I'm ready to hand over the reigns to DH.. or at least come up with a new plan.

@CaliforniaDream87 I can't even imagine! I freak when an interviewee has terrible breath. Although, judging by TMI Tuesday, could she have been a freshly postpartum mom?

My bitch is DD has gone back to "only sleeping when held upright, and only by Mommy" for the past couple nights. Yikes. I am tired.

So, it's pretty much the same bitch as @TurtleMomma. I totally feel your pain.

Is your DD also pulling at her ears all the time?

So Dh had been sick. I wanted him to go to urgent care on Friday, but he told me he was doing better, never mind the horrid cough. Today, LO and I get the shit scared out of its to find Dh sleeping in the couch. He came home from work sick, and wanted to go to urgent care. So I quickly dress and get him in. I ended up an hour late for work. I got nothing done today that I wanted to do. Hate it.

My while day is thrown off now and I got zero downtime before my work shift

No, thankfully. She does however keep trying to chew on her feet.

Ok someone stole my debit card and spent $150 on it which was the money we were using to pay our credit card bill. so we had to put all of our loose cash in the bank to make sure our bank didn't return the pending charge (which they've done before). And also LO just got a tooth and he's been extra fussy allllll day long. We are trying with the orajel and tylonal and tethers, but he's just in pain

How's your hubs now? What did the doc say? Sorry you had such a frantic day!

Creepy internet hugs. I'm having similar problems. He gets plenty when he's nursing, but I can't seem to pump enough for when I'm at work. I think I'm going to need to supplement formula to make up the difference, but I'm feeling stressed and anxious about it. We struggled so much in the beginning, I feel like we worked so hard to establish a good nursing relationship and it's so disappointing that I don't have the supply when pumping. I'm trying to think of this in positive terms though. It's great that we've managed to nurse this long, and maybe supplementing will provide enough support to continue our nursing relationship at least until one year.

Add me to the tired list. DD got up about 5 times or so between midnight and 7 AM last night. At least DH and I were off from work today. I'm scared that it's going to happen again tonight, especially since the stupid metal band wannabes are at it next door.

@courtjack Hubs has bronchitis and a minor ear infection. They put him on antibiotics and a cough syrup, and told him no work tomorrow. So that means another week with less pay. Thanks for asking

I finally had to give in and supplement. My pumping is so hit or miss as of late. I nurse whenever I am home with her, so I feel I am still doing good and one or two formula bottles aren't gonna kill her, and I feel less stress about it. Hugs momma

@MommyBolty hang in there! Deciding to stop nursing was a very hard decision for me and I had tremendous guilt over it. However, LO and I were a lot happier when I did. Then again, I had supply issues from day one so my aituation might be a bit different. If you need to vent or talk feel free to pm me.... I am here.
