    I love watching Teen Mom, but I really question whether Jenelle was pregnant. She has posted pics of her at the beach in a bikini less than a week after delivery. Something just seems off with it.

    GUISE. I was creeping on Parenting and apparently Janelle of teen mom admitted on twitter to being on TB for this last pregnancy. She was due in June.

    Where are you, Janelle??

    @skyangelmommy???? Wouldn't THAT be a kicker!

    ahhhhh YES. she was definitely pregnant she had bump pictures all over Instagram. I would seriously die if she was on here.

    Well breastfeeding just got that much shittier.  LO was just diagnosed with cow's milk protein intolerance so no more dairy, or soy for me.   :((   He had a couple diapers with tiny spots of blood in them. 

     

    IF, 5 losses, 1 son, 1 on the way.

    This is probably a stupid question, but I can't figure it out. What do you do with your baby while you eat dinner? C is fussier in the evenings so dinner time is hard. Either H or I have to hold him while the other eats. I'm ordering a sling so perhaps that will help?

    @ricecakes1216‌, I have worn MJ when she's been that way and the swing doesn't work. Try it if you have a wrap or sling.

    What should I do for some friends who have a baby in the NICU? He was born at about 32 weeks and is doing well, but probably won't be going home for another month. Thinking of some kind of care package that I could drop at their doorstep? Not sure what would go in it... Any thoughts?
    Food, or gc for food nearby.  That was the thing that I didn't even want to have to think about when LO was in the NICU, but obviously had to eat because I was nursing (and you know, survival)

    @lalala8 - gas cards, gift cards, water bottles are all good. Hand sanitizer and snacks are also good ideas! And just ways to help them relax. If you know which restaurants are near the hospital maybe do gift cards from there because they won't have to go too far but can still have some time away.

    And gum. I chewed so much gum in the NICU.





    I'm not new. I just hate The Bump.

    Thanks for the thoughts. We try his swing, bouncy chair, mombo, play mat. All these things normally keep him occupied except when it comes time to eat. Everytime I get food he gets needy. I just want a hot meal! I ordered a sling so I'm hoping that will change my life! :)

    I started reading the Percy Jackson series this week. Who was talking about this the other day? I want to say @LilNunz1‌ ?

    @Rachel5130‌, that was one of my confessions. I hadn't read the 50 Shades books because I was too busy tearing through the Percy Jackson series. Sorrynotsorry, but I loved it! And thankfully LilNunz also liked them too. I'm working my way through the next series now.

    Is it kind of like Harry potter, where it starts off real kid-friendly and slowly gets darker? I'm enjoying it so far (huge fan of mythology), but I'm feeling odd reading about a 12 year old. I don't even remember what it's like to be that young.
    Edit to remove tags.
    Yes, it's like HP in the getting darker sense. It also starts out slow in the first book because of the back story but does pick up. I blazed through the last book in 1.5 days while reading at work (due to a slow period) I couldn't just stop and wait. The adult in me is a little embarrassed to admit how disappointed I am with the movies. If the screenwriting had stuck more to the books, this could have been a great movie franchise. But such is life, it's just so so

    LO went from hating the k'tan to loving the k'tan. He passes right out when he's in it now. So nights like tonight when he's super fussy, I use it to calm him down. He's been fast asleep for 2 hours and I don't know what to do. I am afraid to move him so instead I'm just sitting here drinking wine.
    Drinking wine sounds good to me!

    @rachel5130 I hope you like PJ! It definitely gets darker. It's a fun way to learn Greek mythology, too.


    @otter1103 How are you liking Heroes of Olympus? I've read all 4 that are published. I loved it!

    @LilNunz1, I'm almost done with book 1, Lost Hero. So far, so good. The other 3 are already loaded on my Nook just waiting for me to get to.

    @Rachel5130‌ I totally believe you. are you religious? you could have someone come bless the house. you could smudge with sage, you could have everyone else leave the house and have a one on one conversation with her. tell her all about P and how the things she (the ghost) are doing make you upset as a new mother. if she was a mom/grandma/aunt etc. she should understand. or you could leave her alone and see if she stops. those are some things I would try.

    do I sound crazypants now?

    I was also going to say have someone blessthe house!

    @rachel5130 - I don't see why not... you're asking for help, I would think it would be in their nature to help you.

    @stephross88‌ You have a sage source? Is there a background story?
    haha not really. I've just smudged before and that's where I got it from. just thought I'd help a sister out since not a lot of people are familiar with smudging or where to get sage but I think it works.

    @Rachel5130‌ my parent's old house was haunted. The ghost tried closing the garage door on me, turned on all the burners on the stove while we were sleeping, and a lot of other weird things. My mom put crosses in every room and there was never an issue again.

    Dd was like this too, she started loving it when I tried a different position. Now when she's super fussy, I put her in the K'Tan and bounce on the exercise ball and she crashes out in minutes. She wakes up though if I just sit on the couch, so I just put the ball next to the coffee table where I can reach my Kindle and glass of wine and I'm golden.

    I need to do some errands and I was going to walk with the baby in the tula. It's hot out, would it be wrong to just keep the baby in a onesie only?

    @elsa1688‌ my LO is always in a onesie, whether we are at home or out and our average temps have been in the 80s. I would say your LO will be fine!

    Wait am I supposed to be putting pants on my baby?

    Lol ok, ok ladies! A onesie it is. I usually put some pants on him if we are out (usually a diaper only at home if it's hot). I wasn't sure if id get side eyed in public.
