Re: Longest Thread EVER! (aka Random Thoughts Thread )

  • S just screamed for 2 hours. Tried to put him in the Moby for an hour of that and he got even more pissed. The Moby used to be my magic trick :(
    Any tips on better wraps? He's too big for any of the froggy positions but I'm worried I'm hurting his hips by putting his legs out. Ugghhh I'm so annoyed.

    YouTube Moby wrap legs out for new borns. It will change your life. It's actually am easier wrap than the newborn froggy style.

    Ugh- DH lost his job today. He has decided he wants to do something different but has no idea what. He is not worried at all and I am freaking out. Apparently he has been miserable for the past six months and I have been too busy to notice. A part of me feels like I should go back to work early (I have one more month of mat leave) but I know I would resent him for it (even though losing his job is obviously not his fault). At least he'll be around to help with LO.

    ETA I should probably be more supportive...

  • She has been on the boob for 30 minutes, it's the only way she'll stop crying today. All is calm and I sneeze. She loses her shit (and takes my nipple with her). Back to square 1. It's going to be a long night...
  • @mrscrcalli‌ I know you've said this before, but what are the name of the headphones your son is wearing?

    Here you go :)

    111 degrees tomorrow. I'm gonna have  to shave my legs.

    Woah. And I thought the 95 it's going to be here was hot. (I have zero plans to shave tomorrow)
  • My mom watched DS so we could go out for late birthday drinks & to see neighbors. SO funny it's a must see so many breast feeding jokes we were dying. I needed that. Of course he was an angel for my mom...
  • Three intros in one day??? Weird...
  • @p&amp;b715 - same thing is happening at our house. the hand chewing has taken the place of a pacifier

  • XP from the breastfeeding thread

    I think I may be becoming an EPer and not by choice DD has been nursing for only a few seconds to a few minutes and then pulling off screaming, if I can even get her to latch at all. She only wants the pacifier, and tonight she took a bottle from DH like a champ. I feel so distraught over the whole situation. I feel like I've been starving her by not giving the bottle sooner, and I'm just really sad that she won't nurse and that she won't use me for comfort. I know it's not a supply issue, as I always have a letdown within the first 30 seconds of nursing, and I'm getting decent quantities when pumping.

    Mine has been doing this because he is miserably gassy.

  • I thought it might be gas related, but nothing seems to help, and she screams if I even attempt to get her to latch. She nurses fine overnight and in the early morning. I'm just so sad over it. I'm always hopeful tomorrow will be better, but I'm glad that she will take a bottle, so now I'll know I'm not starving her

  • I got behind and I'm out of it tired.

    I have no idea who snail was, I'm very inept at sleuthing.

    Hoping house hunts go well and everyone gets relief for their gassy babies!

    At 5 weeks pp DH is starting to want some action, but I'm terrified of the pain everyone has described.

    Ps. My boobs are itchy and my skin is dry and I keep thinking I feel ticks crawling on me.
  • i never posted a birth story either. is it too late?

    I just DTD for the first time today and that's exactly what I was thinking during the first few minutes. It soon stopped hurting and I wasn't in serious pain after, just a little achey.

    Nope! :)

  • @Bluebird2318‌ You're more of a trooper than I am! I told my husband we had to stop after a minute, and that was with me controlling the pace. :-/

    @aronie82‌ I had a vaginal delivery. I guess it's just a natural result no matter what birth was like. The tip was all I could handle too, and he said, "I don't know if that's going to do anything for me." I hope he would've felt the same pre-birth!

  • Do yall think 6 oz is too much at 8 weeks? He doesn't seem satisfied after 4 anymore. I made 6 and he sucked it down. It just seems like alot for this age?

    My lo just turned 6 weeks Saturday. I generally feed 5 oz but sometimes he will eat six. I usually feed the reg amount then wait a few mins and if he's still hungry I feed the extra. I'm more scared he ll barf it up because of volume then anything but he's been fine .

    @MadBloom‌ I was super late to the game too and still haven't done a birth story. Maybe we should start a thread for procrastinating mums?

    Yea that's not a bad idea! I don't really need my own at this point. Maybe one thread for all the procrastinators would be good :)

    ETA: I've already changed my mind... I'm totally going to AW it up and create my own thread lol. It's actually like 90% typed up, I just got to the shitty part where I could have died and stopped typing because it was tough to remember a lot at that point.
