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

  • Currently trying to decide which is worse: change the diaper now and risk waking him or leave the diaper now and risk a leak.

    I think I'm going with leave the diaper. Future Self may hate me.

    I think this dude is growth spurting and teething at the same time! Up for a 4:30 for the first time in a while! But this sweet boy is nuzzling my boob. :x Do babies eat more when teething?

  • Second morning that Lo has woken up with his diaper leaking out the top?? Ummm why? He is in the middle of the weight range so they should be fitting correctly, and his penis was down! I don't like being soaked in pee when I'm feeding him!

  • Why is it necessary to let a person know on the board ygpm? Do they not see it?

  • DH thought he could negotiate more from his old employer if he went back. It's not working that way. And they told him we'd have to move to IL if he wants FT or insurance. DH says it sucks, I've never been there. We need some of this A14 job juju.
  • We switched LO to the convertible and I'm not happy! He seems happier because he has more room but his head falls forward when he sleeps. I tried putting a rolled blanket on the side but that didn't do anything. It's at the most reclined position so idk what to do. Any tips?

  • 9 millionth weight check today. Hopefully this is the last one and we can all agree she's just going to be a tiny kid. (She's still in 3 month clothes, though they are getting to be a tad short on her. 6 months are way too big). I always feel judged at these appts. I know it's not true but they just make me so nervous!

    Same boat here with clothing size :) her doc was fine since she has great control and strength and is already crawling. She is just a little girl. Good luck

    @NoLaLinz since it's NOT FFFC---cancer is cancer.  I work with cancer patients every day and no matter what kind it is or if your life choices were to blame---it's terrifying.  I don't think my metastatic lung cancer patients would judge anyone with stage 1 cervical cancer for being scared.  They would welcome them to the club and offer what they could.


    ETA: I know "welcome them to the club" sounds weird.  But they would--in their own way.
    Fair enough.
    Eta- I've had a LEEP myself due to bad life choices, I'm def not judging from that aspect.


    Andplusalso as evidenced above, people will assume it's because of life choices and that they are sexual deviants. And maybe they want to avoid that judgment. A person can have HPV and not have gotten it sexually. And even if they did get it sexually, it could have been from non slutty behavior.

    ---------------------------------

    This. My first husband contracted HPV during a 2-year monogamous relationship with a woman he thought he was going to marry. I thank God that I somehow didn't contract it, but if I had, it wouldn't have been from being slutty since he was my husband and the only man I had ever had sex with.

  • @MrsStanton87‌ Oh gosh.. How scary! I'm glad they caught it early, and I hope she was able to get pregnant after that.

    DD is in the exact same boat...I just got the appt reminder text for Friday's weight check and got a pang of anxiety. They want to see that she's gaining weight and at least maintaining percentile. If she is, no more checks. FX for both our babes!
    DS is a tiny guy, too. He wears some 0-3 still and 3 months. We are no where near 3-6 or 6 month stuff. Why so many weight checks? We have only done one when he was brand new.

  • I so exhausted. L has been sleeping like shit the past week and since I have to hardest time falling asleep, I basically don't get any because he's even waking so often. I think H finally realized it this morning when he woke up at 4 (for work) and I told him I had already been awake for two hours. He even offered to wake up and try to give L a bottle so I can sleep. While that is a very sweet gesture, it would be pointless because I know I'll wake up regardless since L will most likely not take a bottle. Ugh. I'm hoping this passes soon.

  • I see this in my newsfeed every now and then and it creeps me the fuck out. I wonder what the reaction would be if a father said 'I'm so glad I'm my daughter's first kiss! And her first true love...yay!' Like wtf. Are you french kissing your son? Nobody thinks about a peck on the lips when they're talking about their first kiss. Stop.

    The same could be said for moms and their daughters, but you never see that either!

  • We had so many weight checks because dd had lost too much in the beginning then didn't gain the typical 1 oz a day. We had them at least once a week for a month. Then biweekly and now monthly. But, after today we are finally just on well checks!! 13lb 13oz and in the 18%! That's pretty darn good for us!
    Oh, gotcha. That's great news! :)

  • @MrsW26‌ yeah we had dropped some huge number in the beginning. Instead of forcing me to supplement she told me I could come in for extra checks.
  • @MrsW26 @Emily041285 You are both making me wonder if I should take DS in for a weight check. He had a big drop down to the 5% between his 2 month and 4 month appointments, but his doctor wasn't too concerned because he grew in length quite a bit. It has been bothering me, though; so, we started solids a little earlier than I had otherwise planned to. Hmm...
