I miss Jimmy John's

Is it just me or is this Joe Dirt's baby?

@Cook251‌, I'm dreading this! Hang in there :-)

Oh, I'm so glad she's sleeping @cook251 - that's a great start at day care I think!

I just dropped DD off at daycare for the first time and I cried the whole way there. It's only for a coupe hours while I go to my gyno appointment but I know this is the beginning of doing this every day and it sucks. It's been about an hour and half and I miss her so much! (

Hope she did ok! It's harder on us than our babes

We're on vacation in Tampa right now and took DS to the aquarium yesterday. He loved it! He was absolutely fascinated by the tanks and watched the fish swimming for ages.

kendy20 · October 2014

@Cook251‌, Good job at having the motivation to go to the gym!

Good job @Cook251!

Today is my last day off and I go back to work tomorrow. I'm starting to wish I would have just listened to my surgeon when he said are you sure you don't just want to take this week off too.. Then I could be home this last week with DS. I already miss him and I haven't even left! Lol. I could really do the sahm thing hopefully someday!

I rarely put DS in jeans. He's short and pudgy and they don't fit quite right. I'm really lazy with him too, so he wears sleepers usually (also acts as socks without having to put socks on him). But, I think babies in jeans look cute!

Emmagk · October 2014

DS hasn't pooped in 3 days, he's usually a twice a day pooper. I know it's normal for an EBF baby but I'm scared of what's coming when he does finally go

fussybunch · October 2014

I wish my jeans had an elastic waist.

Thought I'd start a thread as I have no questions. Just statements. Please add as you wish 1. We moved ds to his room and floor bed. He honestly could have cared less. I'm a little sad. The monitor I got sucks but I can hear him quite the 5 step distance between us. But sometimes I worry he might make noise and I won't hear him right away. And he will cry and I won't go to him. Complete irrational fear and worry I know. 2. His 2 month needles are this week. He will be 9 weeks Thursday. So I'm looking at a double whammy of building immunity and growth spurt. Yippee kay-yay. Usually he gets a super sleepy day before one hits. Today was a super sleepy day. We will see if the pattern stands. 3. I really want my friend to ask me to be in her wedding. I see her friends post the card on fb and she commented 4 down 2 to go I hope one is for me 4. Ds just shimmied from my shoulder to the crook of my neck to snuggle. I don't want to put him down. Such a sweet pea. 5. I don't miss work. But props to all you who have. Really. It must be hard. Anyone else ...?

Yeah - love the crook of the neck snuggle too! It was extremely hard for me to leave my LO today...

Im bummed that hocus pocus is not on netflix

kendy20 · October 2014

@jsquaree‌, yay! Enjoy some me time! I love Gilmore Girls too ;-)

THD7580 · October 2014

DH and I went shopping for our family pics outfits for tomorrow and to dinner and it was delightful! MIL kept an eye on DS after he went to bed and we acted like we had no cares in the world for 2 hours and it was glorious!

I bought 2 pairs of Levi's yesterday and finally feel okay about the way my butt and legs look for the first time in 10+ years. I'm never buying cheap crappy shapeless jeans again.

(I bought one pair of 580 boot cut and one pair of Flatters & Flaunts skinny, in case you're wondering. Both are super flattering on plus-size figures.)

kendy20 · October 2014

Teething has started for us and I feel so helpless. DD quivers and her face just looks like she's in such pain. And to think, it's only the start of it all :-(

jenb_99 · October 2014

@sstwinklinglites these are the two pairs I bought

I just got myself some lounge jeans from Express. They're mid rise skinny jeans but they feel like sweat pants. So awesome!

Poor girl.

I just watched on the news this k-9 officer having to put his dog down that had untreatable cancer, who was also his family pet obviously. The force and other K-9 units came to see him off and I bawled the whole time.

Mastitis is still kicking my ass, but I've got LO in bed with me nursing herself to sleep. Loving the sweet baby snuggles.

LO is getting better, but now I'm sick. I'm going to the dr. Later. If we are both on amoxicillin, I wonder if that's okay? I nurse. Last time I definitely had some almost thrush/ sore nips. I read to take probiotics. Any experience anyone?

@becole42 Last time I had to take antibiotics I drank a probiotic everyday. We dealt with thrush in DDs first months and I wanted to prevent it again. The drink came from Whole Foods called Bio-K. It was formulated from rice. Not cheap, but the thrush did not return. Hope this helps!

Good news:finally losing weight. I think it just takes me six months after child birth to start losing weight. Same thing happened with my first.

Bad news: mom is running out of chemo treatments for her ovarian cancer. She's had 8 years after being told she only had six months left, but I'm not ready for this.

kendy20 · October 2014

@ho11yday‌, I'm so sorry about your mom. My MIL, who is basically like my mom, had a rare form of leukemia and I remember her going through the chemo and how hard it was on her and the family. T&P to you and your family (hugs!)

apinkpelican · October 2014

@ho11yday‌ sorry to hear about your mom. May she continue to show such strength

Katzalia · October 2014

@ho11yday‌ and @Cook251‌ , sending T&Ps to both of you and your families.

THD7580 · October 2014

I know that feeling all too well.. I have been there with my gma about ten years ago. Stay strong ladies we are here if you need us!

And.. I think I'm getting the flu. I feel horrid and DH is leaving to work and DS is gonna wake up for a bottle about 2 because I feel too awful to wake him like I usually do before I go to bed so he will STTN. I wanna cry.

Bacon2 · October 2014

I hate Halloween candy! I ate an entire bag in 4 days. Now i need to buy more..

Bacon2 · October 2014

@THD7580‌ hope you start feeling better. Tamiflu is a miracle drug.

ns1 · October 2014

@ho11yday‌ & @Cook251‌ T & Ps your way. I'm sorry for all you're going through.

@THD7580‌ I hope you get better quickly!

lrmrtn · October 2014

Sending love to those if you with health issues and dealing with loved ones with health issues...

On a really trivial note, why are so many baby clothes white? Don't they know babies ooze fluid of varying colors from various places?!

lrmrtn · October 2014

And how is there an August 2015 birth club already?

kendy20 · October 2014

Anyone ever pay someone else to hand out halloween candy so you could go trick or treating with your LO? I saw someone post about it on another board and never heard of anyone doing that.

QOTR · October 2014

I'm sorry @ho11yday. Strength to your family.

THD7580 · October 2014

This whole 15-20 min nap thing is not working when I have the flu and just want to sleep. Literally I lay down close my eyes and boom he's up!

gutsysneakers · October 2014

So DD had picture day at school. They legit brought in a photographer for school pictures...she is 5 months old. I die from 1) cuteness of it all and 2) the fact that she had her first school picture.

Oh no! It's annoying the crap out of me and I don't have the flu. Do you have anyone that can come help out a bit so you can get some rest? Feel better!

Yeah my MIL came by to hang out with DS so I can nap thank goodness! Thank you! It's so hard taking care of LO when you feel awful.. But we do what we gotta do!
