So MIL and FIL must have been pretty toasted. FIL asked me how to secure our sliding door on the porch. I told him it broke and DH has yet to fix it but there is a large baby/dog gate that you slide in there and secure. Well, about an hour after they left I went out there for something and they left the other door wide open. If I hadnt gone out anyone could have just walked into the house. -_-;;;;;
The creep with the salad bowl could have returned!
I really hope all you ladies are having a better day than me. It's definitely not the worst, but it's definitely not the best, either.
DH has been so busy with school and two jobs that we have had zero time together since Mia was born. When I do get to see him, he's tired and pissy, and now he's got a very mild cold that has turned him into a serious dick.
He knows how much I want to spend time with just him, and I'm willing (finally) to let someone babysit DD for long enough for us to go out to eat or something. Instead of finding time for us to spend time together, he told his BSC mom we would all three go to her house (a 30+ min drive) on Friday to dye eggs for "special" Easter themed deviled eggs, and made plans with his friend to go out to eat with him on Saturday before he goes to work all night, without telling me until today.
He gets pissy with me for holding Mia when she's sleeping, even though she'll wake up if I put her down, because he thinks she'll develop an attachment complex. He bitched me out for asking him to turn the volume down on the tv during the movie we watched because Mia was sleeping.
I get that he's tired because he works so hard for us, but he doesn't have to be a dick when he comes home every day.
I'm about to give up on trying to spend time with him where we're not annoying one another, or I'm crying because I'm so frustrated with our situation. I love him dearly, but FFS man! A little effort to make the little bit of time we have together worthwhile is all I'm asking for!
Omg that took forever to read through - note to self, make sure you check before there are 732 new comments.
I have a few things to share:
1) 9 days since the induction, and I finally popped. It felt awful, and by awful. I mean amazing.
2) Today with the baby nurse was far better. She started actually doing what we needed her to do (assisting with meals, making sure I have water, letting us take care of Allison and giving us assistance/baby lessons as we ask) and we all feel more comfortable. We're willing to see how this goes for the rest of the week an go from there.
3) MY Karen got DH to listen to me more and realize that he needs to support me more. He has been wonderful in doing things but his view has been Allison first, me second, rather than seeing that we needed to be cares for equally and that my physical recovery goes hand in hand with my mental recovery.
4) knock on wood, but I think I do have a unicorn baby. Here's an aw pic:
Im so sexually frustrated..and my husband is a million times hotter now being a dad to our beautiful son.. but I have no idea when I can have sex again and I'm also scared to death to do it for the first time in a very long time and I dont wanna get pregnant again.... sorry for the randomness.. he's just laying next to me and I just wanna rip his clothes off... whew I need to calm down

It's somewhere around 3am. I'm starving.. I guess that's what I get for having salad with grilled chicken for supper and not binge eating pasta or something delicious.
It was more awkward watching Wolf of Wall Street because my dad was watching it with us than because J was there too. I mean, we're a pretty open family but damn that was pretty graphic, haha.
I just woke up from dreaming that I left my baby at a daycare owned by my family (they don't own one irl), and went to a family event with everyone else. Then my grandparents freaked out saying that the after hours people they have are horrible and carry knives and give babies soda and I needed to hurry and go get Kara before something awful happened.
I tried to call the place to tell them I was on my way, but couldn't get the number to dial. My mom offered to take me to get her, but we walked outside and it was like the whole building was spawled across miles and we were on the wrong side from where either of us parked, and THEN it started snowing heavily and I woke up feeling panicked.
Fuck. I never had baby-related nightmares during pregnancy or at all before now! That sucked! But Kara is still sleeping peacefully across from me so I feel better. I guess.
@nblondheim so sorry about the snow! Earlier in the week DH told me we would have some today today too, however none and a high of 64! Thank goodness! (I've been seriously upset when I can't get outside with Fallyn, so it's really good It will be warmer)
So I just got home in time to see the UPS guy pulling up. He dropped off a little package addressed to me. I hadn't ordered anything, so I opened it. It is a bracelet my husband bought me "from" the baby. I choked up a little.
@nblondheim - holy hell. I wont complain about the 1" we got Monday...

@LoveatCowles after I got all that bull hunky out, I took a deep breath and we just chilled the rest of the night, and he got treated to some sexytimes (as much as we can before my six weeks is up, anyway!)
The only thing I want for Mother's day is to sleep for more than an hour at a time for one night. Don't care about a fancy meal or getting pampered or some special gift...just sleep.
H seems to think to solve my sleep people is to send DS1 to my IL's for a couple hours. That's great an all for DS1 to get a break from here but that does nothing for me sleeping when I still have another child to take care of.
Yes!
My sister wants to baby sit so I can go out, but all I want is sleep.
Screw going out, any block of time to nap sounds dreamy to me. I can't wait until he sleeps for longer than 2.5 hours
Amen. I just bought concert tickets for August. My mom volunteered to take him for the night and my first thought was "OMG I could get a whole night of uninterrupted sleep!"
Is anyone else getting headaches? I'm assuming they're hormonal but I get a daily headache that Motrin won't touch.
Yep. I used to get them in college when I had a very inconsistent sleep schedule ... I have a feeling the interrupted sleep in causing my headaches now. Great. Hopefully my body will just adjust.
