@poru After week 5 I was sold on the whole concept. Last week we got 5 hours then 3 hours every night. Sunday night and last night? Two hours followed by screaming bloody murder til 7am. And the baby cried too.

Mamamonzo · June 2014

My kid has been sleeping allllll day. He woke up long enough to be a total cock block then went back to sleep. :-w
Not impressed kid.

Why is it the only parenting advice DH ever remembers hearing is that you should vacuum when LO is napping? And why is today like the first time ever that he's vacuumed? And did whoever came up with that advice ever have a kid?!

speechie517 · June 2014

Fed baby, left for 2.5 hours to see a client and go to the grocery store. She drank SIX ounces of breastmilk while I was gone and was ready to chow down when I got home. Holy heifer baby. No wonder she wants to eat every 1.5 hours when I'm home.

The vacuum put both my babies to sleep, but DS1 doesn't like it anymore - unless he's pushing. When he was little, we just kept the vacuum in the nursery and turned it on during naptime like mobile. I take it Owen is not a fan?

It woke him from the first decent nap he's had today. He's been awake/feeding all day, but at least he's been pretty happy.

@fourthnlast we had our 2 month visit with shots today and LO is alternating between sleeping, nursing, and screaming her head off. She wants to be held but refuses to be worn. Thank goodness DH is home to help. Good to know your LO is better today! We have a date with @baileymama3‌ tomorrow and I hope DD is back to her normal smiley self!

@biggerinreallife thanks for passing that along. I thought gripe water was supposed to help them poop, so that shows what I know.

Yesss. She wanted to be held but then screamed when i held her, layed her down, screamed more. Dh picked her up, passed out on his chest. All is forgotten today, totally back to normal. Good luck!

@celticlullaby‌ god damn! That's a cute baby!!!

Emily041285 · June 2014

I think my heart just stopped. DD woke up (yes, short lived in the pnp). I laid her down to change her diaper and she starts crying like normal. This time she lets out a new cry that I've never heard and is so congested she can't breathe! I pick her up and start patting her back and she can breathe normal again. I am never going to be able to sleep tonight. I'm going to be checking her constantly.

So scary @Emily041285‌. I've heard LO cough-choking from across the apartment and I can't get to her fast enough. I think their hacking is just part of being a baby, unfortunately. Keep in mind if she can cry, she can breathe.

That's the scary part. For a second she stopped crying.

@poru is hot, I'm saying it.

All these tattoos make me want to get another one! Maybe this should be a FFFC, but at the tender age of 14 I went and got a tattoo of a DRAGON on my arm. 8-> I was so smart. It looked awful, like I got it in prison.

Anywho $1200 later it's gone thanks to laser technology...but I'd like another some day!

Best story ever. Can't believe this is just coming out now!!

Knife penis reminds me: Have any of you ladies ever watched "Teeth"?

Spoiler alert!

It is about a girl with "vagina dentata"... Teeth, in her vagina. She bites off a few penises and fingers with her vaginal teeth.

Omg! That was coming on after a movie I was watching and I was like, "wtf kinda plot is that??" Clearly I should've watched.

Total sidenote: Andrew is in his nursery cooing. I peaked in and recorded his sounds on my iphone. I wish that I had night vision on it cause he was kicking his feet and throwing his little hands in the air. So sweet.

sarlimes34 · June 2014

Back up your old phone on itunes and it can be transferred to the new one. Problem solved!

Sympathy love tit. DD didn't nap for shit yesterday and was losing her mind. I finally got her asleep at 11:30 and as soon as I put her down she woke up again

BiggerinRealLife · June 2014

I've had a few drinks so I'm just love titing everything. And I said tit. Yes, I HAVE had a few drinks.

JessieAlbin · June 2014

Hubs is out of town and won't be home until Thursday.. Sleep sucks with a baby but even worse when your DH is so far away.

Tummy time has been going so well, except now Sullivan has this new thing where he likes to vom down my cleavage and then rub his face in it before I can get him or me cleaned up. Classy, kid.

Welcome back, @deidremaria‌ !!

sarlimes34 · June 2014

@JessieAlbin‌ - omg thats terrible but soo cute! how can you be upset at that face?!

BiggerinRealLife · June 2014

They only had small left and I think H is more a medium but I got it anyway because $5!

MadBloom · June 2014

Just spent an hour catching up!
Can't wait to see this Dragon tattoo @dani+california‌ !! I got a freaking nautical star on my shoulder blade at 16. Too cheap to have it removed. It's so ugly (blue and yellow).
Hugs to anyone who needs them and congrats to those who've had sweet shit happen! (New jobs and the likes)

pineconey · June 2014

Edit: now it went back... wtf bump?!

Doh! Ticked I missed this! LO's birthday is May the fourth!

chichi589 · June 2014

Week 8 sucks but week 9 is great so far! DS just slept 830-415!! Promptly went through 3 diapers in 15 mins pooping nursed for 30 mins and passed back out! Head up ladies sunshine is coming

Came home from work to find out what we thought was strep was actually hand foot and mouth and of course DSD is 2 and has her hands & mouth on everythinggggg. I spent my evening cleaning, sanitizing, and washing everything

I'm so paranoid I'm going to get itand give it to chase. Is that even possible? It's so hard keeping them apart because she loves to kiss him and her mom gave up her time again this week (which we love when that happens not saying that's a bad thing) so stressed. My mom is convinced he can't get it because of breastfeeding but that doesn't seem true. Blah. Hand foot and mouth you suck.

sking72 · June 2014

And yet again, I work an overnight, LO has slept from around 10-now (5.30) with SO! And she's still sleeping! She got her shots today's so I'm thinking this long stretch is a fluke, but so not fair!!!

And knife penis being eaten by vagina with teeth mental picture... That's just great.

bootsiebabe · June 2014

Finally had some sushi!!! Damn, don't know why I didn't do that sooner!

bootsiebabe · June 2014

Also I am simultaneously grossed out and intrigued by this Teeth movie...

How do you get a tattoo before you're 18?

Probably with parental permission, or if you know someone who does them that's not bound by laws the way tattoo parlors are.

DH loves watching terrible (or potentially terrible) movies so we caught that one on Netflix a long time ago.

All I remember is "VAGINA DENTATA IS REEEEEAAAAALLLLL!"

SoulTermination · June 2014

Really wishing I had Spidey's web abilities at times like this, when DD is asleep on me and I can't reach something I want/need (in this case, the PS3 controller for Netflix).

eireyes · June 2014

Warning: Rant ahead.

Today is DH and my three year anniversary, and of course it starts out with a fight. We'd agreed that I'll do overnight feedings and DH will put LO back to sleep when he wakes himself up and its too early to be fed (like fed at 3:30, awake at 4:30). This way hopefully I'll get a little more sleep, because if baby is making noise, I wake up and can't sleep...

Aiden wakes up at 4:30 so I ask DH to go get him and put him back to sleep. Aiden woke up again at 5:10 and I ask DH to go, and had to ask twice. DH gets pissy because "He's fine, he isn't crying yet." Yeah, I know asshole, but he's starting to and waiting until he's wailing isn't a good idea, and besides, guess who else is now awake and can't sleep?! So of course he storms out of the room and I'm left feeling like an ass for asking him to help. He swears he isn't mad when he reacts this way, but man that's the impression he leaves.

I'm tired of having this fight over and over. Happy effing anniversary to us...

ok skipping over lots of posts but i have a question for the AA swaddlers... how the hell do you keep this from happening?? is my kid just a houdini?! three times i pulled the blanket down from her face / around her neck last night. She would jailbreak her other blankets but they never ended up like this!!! We just bought this because of all the good things I heard about them but im questioning it now...

yeah, that happens here too. I start the swaddle lower - like midchest. Then it typically tends to bunch towards her feet instead of face.

MissHSoonToBeMrsS · June 2014

But @dani+california‌ did you not loooove the ending??

allyandmike24 · June 2014

Ahh thanks @macgrs!!! My girl, she is a good little eater! We've gone from "oh she's soooo tiny" to "are you sure she's just two months old?!".

My little guy is about 12.5 lbs (according to my bathroom scale) now and I only have about 80 Size 1 diapers left. I tried a Size 2 on him to make sure I could transition when I run out and it fits. He's growing so fast.

This happened to me last week, while we were traveling. I had to run out and get size 2s...I almost cried at Target. Thankfully I use cloth at home, and he's still on the 'bottom snap' so I get to be blissfully ignorant about how big my guy is getting!

We were gifted some of each size and DC but use the occasional sposie here and there so i have like 40 NB, and 60 size1 that no longer fit. I am using the excess for my bffs baby shower in aug for the "write a message on the butt" activity
