    Us too!! so gratifying and relaxing! Also last night, I put him to the boob and he clicked like a magnet! His latch is shallow but my god it is like a turbo Hoover. I look down and am surprised my nip is still there!

    I should probably ask in the breast feeding thread, but I don't want to leave here. Anyone know if Allegra is ok to take while breast feeding? My allergies are starting to ramp up and get pretty crazy...

  • Also, has anyone heard from @AprilMay9‌??
  • Agreed @Vinny424‌ - hoping for the best for her!
  • Day 5: went through 6 outfits, 1 changing cover, 5 swaddles, 1 sheet and mattress cover and 2 hats.

    Thank goodness MIL is here doing our laundry daily!!! Andrew is a poop machine and loves to go mid diaper changes. Also Huggies can kiss my ass--- he leaks through those so fast! And is too small for cloth still... What weight do you find is when to start? He's basically 8lbs but so small!

    Aiden refuses to nap today... I know he's tired (yawning, snuggling in) but he is fighting sleep like it's going to kill him! Thank god it's a weekend and DH is here, but if this boy doesn't sleep soon tonight is going to be a bitch.

    Thanks! Things are getting better, I guess, lol. DH has an infection and DD has a stomach bug. I cried last night after she had diarrhea on her floor because she couldn't make it to the bathroom on time. After shampooing her carpet at 1 am I crawled in bed and just couldn't control my emotions at that point. I keep telling myself things will get better, because they have too. I know things could be a lot worse, but sometimes it's hard to remember that. I'm selfishly dreading mother's day tomorrow because I know more people are concerned about DH than me, which they should be, but I'm bummed. Anyway, sorry for the novel. I guess I needed to vent. Thank you for thinking of me. I appreciate it!

    That was my life yesterday. I feel your pain!!

  • We have newborn photos right away and little girl is in wide awake mode....
    And are they really newborn photos if she's 3 weeks old? Haha oh well. I was in no condition to do anything the first 2 weeks.

    We haven't done newborns yet.. Won't until she's at least six weeks old. At that point I think it's just family portraits haha

    @madbloom. Make the room really warm!

    I'm so hungry all the time. This makes pregnancy hunger seem like a joke.

    DH finally got Aiden to sleep - apparently he wanted to sleep sitting up in his swing, not laying down... Now every time he squeaks I stop and hold my breath - please stay sleeping sweet baby!

    @Ashleypixie‌ Congrats! You also got a new avatar... I had to read your name because I thought "who is this new person who bought a house?"

    Hahaha! Thanks! It was time to change.

  • I didn't say anything last night because I didn't want to jinx it, but I think I'm past the painful part of breastfeeding! My nips aren't on fire anymore and LOs latch is great. Woop! \:D/

    How long did it take? I need hope in my life.

  • @Jessieann1020‌ the car seat lady has a thing about how to swaddle in the car seat. Maybe that would help?

  • Wegmans (grocery store) on the Saturday before Mother's Day at noon alone with a baby without my carrier wtf was I thinking? My own personal hell..
  • I would have never thought to wash mesh undies. I've just been pitching them every day. I do feel like the pads tear these things up....I'm quite the recycler, but I might just have to chock these up to disposable. Maybe I'll try to salvage today's pair and see how it goes. Alternatively, if the washing goes well I'm going to be ticked I wasted the five pairs from this week!
  • somehow little dude split his bottom lip, right in the middle. when he stretches it busts open and bleeds. should i put something on it?

    Yeah, she's super sweet.. It's more like I wanna just see my baby. But seeing all the shenanigans is a plus.

    Well our photo shoot was an interesting ride! Photographer came and set up at my place. Penny was wiiiiide awake. Finally got her sleeping by putting her naked in the k'tan and bouncing her for like 30 minutes. Started taking her out and she POOPED IN THE K'TAN!! 


    She also peed on one of the photographers wraps. Oh and when we were doing our final set in her baby hockey jersey she pooped on that too. God love her. 
     
    We did get some pretty sweet pictures once we actually did get her sleeping! I'm pretty excited to see these pictures!   
    Sounds similar to our shoot. DD peed all over DH and a little on me, and all over the floor. Peeing everywhere seems to be her favorite trick as she did the same thing at the doctor's office!
