Re: Open letter saturday!

  • Dear house,

    I'd love to clean you but I also want to enjoy my time free of having Sloan in my arms. You will get clean again. In fact I'm making a cleaning schedule and will type it up :)


    Dear mommy hood.

    This has to get easier. Every time it think I understand what my baby wants/needs you change it up and I feel clueless again.

    Dear wallet

    I'm sorry we waste so much formula. Sloan likes to fake us out and then fall asleep once your made. Also I should invest in bottles and nipples as I've been buying so many trying to figure out which will work best for us.

  • Dear LO,

    Mommy and Daddy love you so much already - but we are ready to meet you.  You're well enough cooked at 39+5. Please come out now.

    Love, Mommy and Daddy


    Dear body,

    I am sorry for all the abuse I have put you through in the past 9 months - I want to feel better too! A few more days...

     - Me

    Dear H,

    Now that you are out of confinement from your SECOND round of flu, please stop whining at me about how much there is to do around the house.  I did the best I could, considering I can barely walk or bend.

     - Your full term, very pregnant wife


    Dear family and friends,

    I get that you want to know what's going on, especially since I've been home resting for 2.5 weeks.  But I PROMISE you - when something happens, we WILL let people know!  The daily "so?  any new news?  she here yet?" is very old.

     - an impatient mom-to-be


    RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
    You made my wedding day complete.


     Anniversary

  • Dear LO,

    Thanks for the 6 hour block followed by a 3 hour block of sleep last night, as opposed to your usual 4 and 3. I feel like I could tackle the world today!

    Love,
    Mommy

    Dear sister,

    I really appreciate you wanting to include your new niece in your kids spring pictures today. I'm going to love the cousin photos. However, you live 20 minutes away from us and the photo shoot is an hour north of you. You have no idea how much anxiety I'm feeling today taking her that far away from home. I'm hoping everything turns out fine, but I wish you would have considered your niece is only 4 weeks old before okaying the location with your photographer :/

    Sincerely,
    Your sister who is also a new mommy dealing with FTM anxiety

  • Dear body--

    You slept 8 hours of uninterrupted beautiful sleep last night. Let's keep that ish up, yeah?

    Dear blood pressure

    GO DOWN NOW PLEASE. I'd rather not have to argue with my OB about being induced on Monday.

    Sincerely,

    40+1 is harder than I thought.

    Dear self

    It's ok to be devastated about the birth you almost had but couldn't because even after trying she physically didn't fit. It's natural to cry and feel disappinted about yoursf. But it's time to recognize you're a great mom with an amazing daughter who doesn't know you are devastated and move on. She's beautiful and exactly what you prayed for. You're not weak for letting go. You're a mom.

    It's also not your fault you're tired. You had major surgery and you're a new mom. And your stomach? You've got to give it a chance. It will go down.

    Took a page right out if my book...
  • Dear baby,
    I love you but I can't wait to love you outside of my body. I am so uncomfortable. I'm glad you're healthy and a good weight, but it's quite a strain on my back and makes it hard for me to sleep at night. I hope our delivery goes smoothly and you're healthy and can come home with me right away. I also hope you're a good latcher and make bf easy on me! Please don't make me spend all day and night hooked up to a pump like your big sis did.

    Can't wait to meet you in a few days,
    Love,
    Mama
  • Dear LO-

    My nipples hurt from your continuous nursing last night. That's why I am pumping and you are getting bottles today. Also- it will not hurt you to be put down for 20 minutes while I cook or go to the bathroom or whatever. I promise I'm coming right back!

    Love mommy

    Dear fur baby,

    Pleaaaaaase stop jumping over the fence!

    Love, tired of chasing you down.

    Dear H,

    Hurry up with your hitch at work and come home. I need adult conversation and moral support for those all night feeding sessions. It's been a loooong 2 weeks.

    Love, your exhausted wife
  • Dear Mother Nature,

    Thank you for the consistent & glorious rain today. The entire house is still because you make everyone want to stay cozy in bed. It's giving me a precious moment to snuggle on the sofa with my sleeping darling LO & soak up every part of him. His sleeping facial expressions light up my world.

    Sincerely,

    This grateful mom
  • Dear Winter,

    Bite me.

  • Dear pharmacy, Why on earth would you make baby Zantac smell/taste like you mixed bourbon, toothpaste, and vomit in a bottle? It makes my baby scream like I am torturing him. Maybe milk flavored medicine would be a better idea... Sincerely, New mom who just wants the reflux to go away

  • Dear everyone on my Facebook,


    Stop giving me unsolicited advice. When I say I'm excited to meet my little guy, that means I'm excited. Stop effing telling me to "not stress"

    Gosh I hate you all.

    Love,
    Don't wanna hear any of your advice.
  • Dear LO, Time to GTFO! Having grandma living in my house until you arrive is slow torture! Living with "feeling anything yet?" For a week is exhausting! Love, Impatient NY Mommy

  • Dear Body,

    Today should be our last day being pregnant, if all goes as planned with the induction tomorrow. And, since we're not planning on more kids, probably last day pregnant ever.

    You've been making me achy and miserable for weeks. Please, body, let me be a unicorn today. Let me be able to get off the couch, and walk without waddling or doubling over in pain. Let the gas go away and the swelling go down. Let find one last cute maternity outfit that magically fits -- for F's sake, let me glow!!

    Please, body, just one day of being cute pregnant, like in the movies? I'll feed you anything you want.

    Love,

    Me

    PS. If we could have a quick, easy labor on Monday, I'd be cool with that too. Thanks.

  • Dear DH,


    I'm lonely. I know our moms have been here during the day all this week to help me bqut I miss you. I know I said you could go out all day today but since you work all weekive changed my mind and I want to spend some time with you, even if its just watching TV on the couch. Please come home soon.

    Love, me

    Awww you should tell him that
  • Dear @elliebean14‌,
    Check with the pharmacy and ask if they can add flavoring to it. My niece has been on Zantac and they add flavoring to it so she will take it easier. I think it's grape.

    Love,
    I feel your pain with medicine.

    Dear BIL,
    I love you and I'm glad that you came to see your niece since she's been home from NICU for 2 weeks now, but can you please wake up and stop snoring on my couch? Go home if you want to nap.

    Love,
    Your SIL who would like to watch TV and nurse in her own living room.

    Dear DH,
    I love you so much and I am so incredibly grateful to you for working and making enough money that I can take my full 12 weeks of FMLA leave, but it has sure been nice having you home to share responsibility for our tiny human this weekend.

    Love,
    Your wife

    Dear Ava,
    Mommy loves you more than I ever thought possible! I am so glad that you are home and safe and nursing so well. It simplifies life tremendously to not have to worry about packing bottles when we leave the house. Please continue to grow and thrive!

    Love,
    Mommy
  • Dear DS - 

    Please get out. Preferably not through the exit your sister carved out. 

    Love, Mom


    Dear everyone else - 

    I have no control over this. STFU.
