I woke to my right breast doubled in size with a swollen areola. WTF is that?!

Is it painful. Sounds like mastitis. I made that after delivering DS.

@HappyCianci People also think I'm going to pop tomorrow. Annoying!

My allergies are KILLING ME! Luckily I have a doctor appointment and we're going to see LO for the first time since 20 weeks :x I'm still pretty sure I should have stayed in bed for the morning though. Does anyone else get annoyed when people call your baby their baby? It's stupid but I'm like

OMG, this! My Mom kept calling DS1 "my baby" and it drove me nuts! Plus one time we were eating at a restaurant and she positioned his car seat in the sling so that it faced her and not me. (the back of the seat was to me). When I told DH how much it annoyed me, he thought I was overreacting.
My mom also kept calling it "her baby". I got really snippy one day and said "no, this is my baby or DHs baby...you had nothing to do with it". She got really ticked and pulled the whole "I brought you into this world" crap. But she has backed off.

My mom does this. On FB.

I'm seriously considering filtering my posts now. She comments on EVERYTHING. Like, I'll post a picture of a sandwich, and she'll say "how are you feeling today?"

That is not how FB works, mom. If you comment on a photo of a sandwich, make it be relevant to the sandwich, and "how are you feeling" is more of a text conversation.

1) my mom is driving me nuts. She insists on keeping the name she wants to be called a secret, like anyone other than her really cares. Part of me wants to spill the beans just to spite her but that would be really mean. My cousin asked her at my baby shower this weekend and my mom went on a 20 minute rant to me about how it was none of her business and she didn't understand why she even asked. Seriously????

2) we had our first birthing class last night. It turned our surprisingly well...I was a little concerned because one of the first things the teacher recommended was a book on how to choose your baby's sex for baby number 2. Her logic is she had 4 girls and they used the book and on their 5th got their son. I wanted to be a brat and tell her I was just thankful to be pregnant at all...but she ended up doing a nice job and I felt pretty good after the class and am ready to see what next week brings.

I keep telling myself MIL is just excited! Guise she has her own nursery going, complete with NB sizes and I keep telling her LO isn't going to be NB size for long. I guess she thinks a sleep over is in order with my 2 week old baby? What's happening!?!?

ohioloveyou · September 2014

So over the weekend DH's brother told us that he and his wife will be having a baby in March! YAY So excited, especially since they had been trying awhile. We are so happy for them. We promised not to post on facebook, but they said they didn't care if we mentioned it in person to people, like my Mom.

They are also looking to buy a house, and kept asking us to go to this open house and take a look to give them our opinion since it's down the street from us. Okay, so we went, and may have mentioned in conversation to the selling agent that they were pregnant since we were trying to figure out which room they kept going on about being the perfect nursery. We never mentioned their names or any other identifying characteristics, though.

BIL texts us today asking if "when we toured the house there wasn't any mention of pregnancy, was there?" Crap. How would this even matter...it felt like mentioning it to a stranger to me, which is why I said it. Can this affect their purchase of the house?

Tell me how much trouble I'm in.

I did the same thing with my mom! She was all OH, MY BABY! over DS when he was a newborn...I was like, ummmmmmmmmm, you had your babies. This one's your GRANDbaby. And I know he's lovely...but he's MINE. She was like, yea, sorry, I forgot how weirdly possessive and creepy that sounds. And she's been fine since.
My MIL was like it with my first. I also got annoyed that her card to us after his birth said 'thank you for giving me a wonderful boy' is it just me that finds that really weird?

It is weirdly possessive! Thank you that's exactly what I was thinking but wasn't sure what to call it.

Yeah the card is a little weird. Can you just say there's my grand daughter! Something like that? Why is it "our baby"?

@SPurp13‌ I would strongly recommend watching the Laugh and Learn About Breastfeeding video. I got it from the library. Not only is some of the info from your class not true, but the video specifically addresses how to pump and breastfeed when you go back to work. She recommends feeding the baby on a schedue during the day every 2-3 hours, then on demand at night. She also recommends breastfeeding exclusively for the first 2 weeks to establish good habits, then adding pumping after feeds. She says to breastfeed 10-20 minutes on each side. Then pump afterwords to store milk. Once you have some milk stored, you can let your partner do the first night feeding with a bottle so you can get about 5 uninterrupted hours of sleep. This will also help baby get used to switching between bottle and breast. This is the gist, but definitely watch the video. In less than 2 hours, I learned a ton!

There are just so many rules! I'll never remember.

Like, her reason for setting the timer is so I don't get engorged (so, I was then terrified). If the baby won't eat at the 3-hour mark, and I feel full, she said to pump (I think just a little to prevent engorgement, I didn't clarify), but if I don't feel full, I can wait another hour on the baby. She didn't address at all what to do if the baby only feeds on the one side. But she did say to let the baby finish one side completely because of the hind milk? I think? She was like "the baby could feed for 20 minutes on one side and not at all on the other side, or 10 on one and 10 on the other." I am confused.

I don't doubt she is wrong, because it IS my hospital after all, but I also think I didn't catch a lot, because it went by so fast.

I'll look for that video, but I almost feel like I need a really good book--not so much a sit and read kinda book, but something I can quickly reference for FAQs on the fly.

I highly doubt it could affect their purchase in any way. They probably were surprised when/if the agent guessed they were pregnant or something like that and were just curious or amused to know how he found out. Was your BIL mad or something?

I don't know if he's mad...I technically haven't replied yet because I don't know if DH has seen the text and I don't want to deal with a potentially sensitive issue with his family without him knowing. I was just concerned because of the way he phrased it, "there wasn't any mention, was there?" That sounds like I shouldn't have mentioned it and they might be mad.

I hate Old Navy right now.

I really, really wanted matching skeleton jammies for my boys and I had $10 of ON cash on my account that was going to expire last night at midnight. So I got on at 9pm and added them to my cart, then realized I needed $50 for free shipping (because who pays for shipping?) so then I added a few adorable cut-off baby shorts from Gap that were on clearance, then added two discount codes (30% off at ON and 20% off at Gap) and was just about to apply my $10 cash when it DISA-FREAKIN-PPEARED. Apparently Old Navy is not on my time zone. I was so pissed I didn't even finish placing my order and I stormed off to take a shower, where I proceeded to cry.
X_X

I'm sorry! That is so stupid! Any nationwide business that is going to "close" at midnight, should always make it PST.

@MrsBabe614 - MIL is weirdly possessive about baby too and has been accumulating things since we told her we were pregnant...to use at her house...an hour and a half away. There's no scenario I can come up with that will require her to be caretaker to baby by herself and I'm always over-prepared for every situation, so extra stuff isn't required of her house.

Although, based on this weekend, I think she thinks she's moving in with DH and I'm just the baby producer that is going to leave when the baby comes.

@bazingabee That part made me LOL Luckily I dont think she feels that way about it. This is her first grandchild. And my MIL will retire but that's not until May and even then she said she didn't want to watch her full time. So she'll be 9 months or so by then. We live literally 3 minutes from them so I don't care if she wants to accumulate things but I feel like they should be useful at least by the time she'll be watching her, like toys!?! Not NB diapers. DH and I just decided to shut up and let her do what she wants there. I just hope it doesn't turn into stepping on toes though...I told DH that it's his responsibility to discuss it with her if that's the case. So FX it doesn't turn into that!

I had a dream last night that it was Christmas Eve and I was still pregnant. Not uh, noooooo way. At this point that could very well be classified as a nightmare!

my skin has been horrible this entire time. Normally i can keep it clear with face wash etc but I have white heads all the time. It's disgusting.

1. Regarding sneezing, it hurts my whole chest to sneeze. Has been that way since 2nd tri. I've gotten to the place where I clench before I sneeze to prepare for the discomfort and for some odd reason I've been sneezing ALOT this pregnancy.

2. Reading the never have I ever alcohol thread is making me feel like an amateur! lol. I'm not surprised, I'm not that big on alcohol despite my name

3. My stupid keyboard and mouse aren't working so I'm having to use my laptop which is annoying at work b/c my desk isn't ergonomically set up to use the laptop. The keyboard tray isn't sturdy enough and the desk is too high so my wrist is already in pain and I've only been sitting here an hour! IT better HURRY UP! Or the pregnant lady's going home!

@spurp13 you can totally do the breastfeeding thing...though I think maybe you need some diagrams or spreadsheets from @emerald27 because she is super knowledgeable!

also look at kellymom.com

I do need @emerald27.

I was just really overwhelmed last night. And she kept saying "your supply will be SO much, you want to get it down at first," but. Why? If I want to pump and store, why?

Well, you have two boobs with presumably equal production (not always the case...) and you are having a singleton...so all being well you will produce enough milk at the outset for two babies.
You will want to let your supply regulate some (I think the recommendation is 4 weeks?) before beginning your pumping schedule, otherwise you risk oversupply and that can lead to sore tummy for baby and infections (plugged ducts & mastitis) for you.

I think the best advice I got was to feed every 2-3 hours in the day, but allow baby to feed on each side for as long as they liked. Baby will naturally space out feedings as they grow, if you let them self-regulate (barring rare disorders/hormone issues related to feeding/feeling full).

That sounds like what she was saying...but then I was wondering what happens if the baby only eats from one side. Do I pump the other side?

We had our breast feeding class last night.

I don't know why I'm surprised, since my hospital is from 1982, but I now don't want to breast feed at all. It's too complicated, and it only left me with more questions.

Like, she said once the baby's 48 hours old, to start setting a timer on my phone for every 3 hours. If the baby's not hungry in 3 hours, I can wake her up to feed (this does not excite me) or, if the baby won't wake up and feed, I can use a pump. I'm unclear on if I'm pumping to empty the breast entirely (because what if baby wakes up in an hour and THEN wants to eat?) or just a little (I think just a little). Then, like, if the baby only feeds from one side, do I pump the other side?

I want to build up a supply for when I go back to work (although I'm taking at least 12 weeks off, so I do have time), and she kind of didn't go over that.

She seemed REALLY nice, though, and when we got there, she was like "You're related to Lisa!" (Husband's aunt is the head baby nurse there) So maybe we will get special treatment. Although, she only works Monday-Thursday, and she kind of said herself that waiting over a weekend with a breast feeding question is too long, but she won't be here from Friday to Sunday, so if I have this baby on a Friday, what do I do?

Someone here will help me, right? My internet friends?

She DID say that I should limit the amount of people who hold the baby, because the baby will get confused, and should really only be held by me and my husband if I'm trying to breast feed. This pleased me. Don't care if it's true, but I'm going to say it is.

I haven't caught up on this thread so this might have already been mentioned, but especially early on when your body is trying to adjust to the "supply and demand", if you pump and then 10 min later LO wakes up to breast feed, don't worry your body will make it for him/her. Our bodies are really amazing when it comes to breast feeding!!! Don't stress too much about breast feeding! We're all here to help with questions! (:

Eek! Have you tried massaging the breast at all, or is it tender?

i tried to express some colostrum but nothing came out. I haven't been able to express anything for a few weeks. It's not tender at all, in fact almost numb.

windwithfingers · September 2014

Did I mention yesterday that the new hire who was to be my replacement never showed or answered any calls? So now, three weeks from my EDD, work is frantically trying to find someone else.

We started discussing this move when I was 28 weeks, so I don't really feel bad for them having to scramble. Why would you wait until I'm 35 weeks to start looking when you've known you had to look for 7 weeks prior? Oh well. Not really my problem, is it?

My "replacement" may or may not be starting Thursday. Um. Ok. At that point, in theory, I will only have 3 weeks left until I leave for maternity leave. That's not a lot of time to train, and she probably won't even have her email set up by then. But. Not my problem. They've known since BEFORE I was 12 weeks.

Stuck in quote box:
My in-laws' house looks like a day care center because they have so much stuff at this point. DS1 does go up probably 1 weekend a month to stay (they live 1 hour away), but they have a toddler bed, highchair, boxes and boxes of toys and clothes. In the yard, they have a picnic table, sandbox, swing, etc.

Right, technically, work has known I would eventually leave for 13 weeks back in May, when I was like 20 weeks or something. So they've had a loooooong time to prepare.

I really want to breastfeed, and I am going to do my absolute best to see that this happens for me and baby, but I'm trying to not get my hopes up too high because I don't want to feel guilty and like a failure if it doesn't work out. I'm so grateful for tips and advice from women who have breastfed before!! I'm glad this board is here!

I would love for my mom to be close enough to be up my butt about this grand kid. Or to have a MIL even, that's not self absorbed and off on her own drug induced adventures. Or a grandmother or grandfather to be alive or healthy. And not five hours away. It's just me and DH. Hell, my best friend is to busy getting over a boyfriend binge drinking every night to even call of text me.

You ladies should feel super lucky to have so many caring people around. Even if they are over bearing.

McDonald's seriously made this pregnant lady very upset this morning. With all of yesterdays hash brown talk I had a serious craving. I went in public unshowered to get breakfast and at 10:29 they told me, "sorry we're on our lunch menu." THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO SERVE UNTIL 10:30!!

Also, my hips feel like they're breaking all because I worked one measly 8 hour shift on the floor at the hospital last night. Not sure I can take 4 more weeks (possibly 6 if I go over my due date).

I'm just a ball of complaints today.

I want to punch my dog. Don't worry, I wouls never do that, but I am so full of rage. She went outside this morning and the first thing she did when she came inside was jump on our bed and get all of our pillows and blankets muddy. I am sooo angry. No treats for you today, you little asshole.

@raynes..That sucks about your job. Hopefully nom ore ugly crying!

@MrsClarke08: ugh those kids on that commercial are just annoying.

So last night I had my first night of feeling super uncomfortable and second guessing everything that was going on in my body as labor signs. I hope I am not in this mode for the next three weeks. That will be a pain in the ass for sure.

@pnwlover12 I feel this way about my dog at least 3 or 4 times a week. Like you, I would never actually hurt him but man, sometimes they are so frustrating.
