    3 hours of sleep again tonight and I'm on the verge of losing it. Sleep deprivation led to a nasty MOTN fight with MH because he's "sick" and can't help me at all (not that he did before). Lately LO has been fighting sleep worse and worse and instead of waking to feed and going back to sleep he screams unless I hold and rock him, forget about putting him down (he doesn't have colick or reflux). I feel like I'm losing my sanity. I can't take this anymore.

    @lizzie82088‌ , I've been up every hour tonight and I'm going out of my mind. It's not the case every night thankfully but omg I'm so sorry it's constantly like this for you. I really hope your DS sleeps better soon!!

    Warning: Pathetic whine......My self-esteem is at an all time low, and it's starting to wear on me. I feel disgusting. I look disgusting. I don't even look in the mirror anymore. I don't have the money to buy myself new clothes, have my hair done, get a mani-pedi.....anything to make me feel pretty in the slightest bit.

    @Dawn5481‌ I feel you girl! I have to wear business casual at my school and I am cycling through the same few outfits...lol...I am sure my middle school girls have decided I have no style this year ...ugh. It is partly a lack of money...although I could afford a couple new things, shopping is also depressing right now. I would rather wait until I lose a few more lbs. I saw some pics of myself yesterday and just wanted to cry!!

    This may sound strange but have you told your DH how you feel? I was feeling pretty shitty on the self esteem boat a couple weeks back and broke down in front of him. At first he laughed it off and told me I was nuts. I just got more upset and kept to myself for the rest of the night. He later told me that I was even more beautiful now then before I was pregnant (which I think is bs but still very sweet) and all week I get a text from him telling me things like "you're hot", "sexy", "gorgeous", etc. it's definitely been making me feel better. Although I know telling our SO's can go both ways!! They can be such shits sometimes lol. In all honesty, I hope you find a way to feel better soon. :)

    Thank you. FI and I are in the shitter again, so getting compliments from him probably isn't a realistic expectation. I find that even when he does make a conscious effort to tell me I'm beautiful, I tend not to believe him. Your DH sounds like a keeper :)

    Can I just jump on the feeling disgusting bandwagon? I lost 93 pounds before I got pregnant, gained 38 back during pregnancy and I still have 20 left to lose. I have no motivation to diet or exercise. I can't stop eating crap and I just had to unbutton my pants at my desk.....

    image

    Your gif made me laugh so hard. I feel the exact same way.... Absolutely disgusting! We are all going to lose weight in 6-9 months when we start to wean... I don't bother exercising now because it doesn't do shit! I know once I stop BFing and cut calories it will be better.

    I've been off the grid for the most part for the past week or so. Work has been a raging relentless beyotch and my older brother was hospitalized over the weekend from a pulmonary embolism. He's only 33 and is a really active guy. Apparently he had a blood clot that traveled up his leg, made it through his heart and landed in his lungs. He's being monitored closely to be sure that no other clots are caught floating around. It's crazy that it happened to someone like him who is so young and so healthy. Thank goodness he listened to his body and that it didn't stop up his heart or make it to his brain. My family has been taking shifts checking in on him and helping him with household stuff till he is in the clear. It really made DH and I do a reality check about our current health, benefits, and estate planning.
    Sorry so somber. It's just one of those things you don't want to think about but need to have a plan for.

    We got like 12" of snow in the last 2 days.  I am stuck at home with a super fussy baby and a whiny toddler.  H had to go to work tonight and took my car.  I might not make it to tomorrow with my sanity. Why so much snow?!

    My pump is so damn useless right now. There is one part that screws up pumping, so I can only efficiently pump one side at a time. It has also lost it's suction over these past 12 weeks by getting used more than 10 times a day. Thank god I ordered a new one from the insurance and it should be here soon. Such first world problems.

    @slippintrippn84‌ , fx your BIL gets better soon. Thoughts are with you!

    I suctioned all the snot out of LO's nose and he's been crying for an hour now. I know I didn't hurt him but he absolutely hated it!! I'm wondering if it was even worth it. Sigh.

    I'm scared to do this even though LO always sounds kind of congested.

    I didn't mind doing it at all. Very easy. The consequences though... Omg.

    I wonder why it bothered him so much? Hmm... Boogers are one of those things I just let be. Also earwax!!! Ugh! Have you figured out how to get rid of that? My DS has it bad and I can't use a q tip... I used my pinky finger for the outer stuff but there's always more. :P

    I wash his ears every night in the bath. I don't dare go in either so I too, use my finger. Not sure there's anything more we can do.

    LO is nice and calm now and a very happy baby. No more congestion. Consequences were worth it, lol!

    LO has been a little turd for two days now. It just dawned on me that it's probably the 3 month growth spurt. Now I feel like a jerk for getting frustrated with her.

    Question for those of you that cosleep and bed share: when is it considered safe to have LO in bed with you like next to you? I sleep with him on my chest since I don't move in my sleep really. But is there an age where it's safer to spoon them since they are bigger? I was thinking maybe closer to a year I would feel okay just letting him in the bed next to me.

    We started bed sharing with DD when she was 5 months. By then she could almost roll over in her sleep, she could hold her own bottle at night, and she was just sturdier. BF sleeps pretty heavy but since having kids I sleep pretty light. DS is 16 weeks now, but he doesn't feel as solid as DD did when she was his age, so we may wait a little longer before bed sharing with him... or not, if that's the way I'll get him to sleep!

    Yea my guy is a peanut so I think I will wait until he's a little bigger to have him next to me instead of on me. I'm a super light sleeper though.

    Thanks!!

    I get frustrated with DS at least once every day (why he feels like the day should start at 4:30 is fucking beyond me, but there you have it). We can be jerks together :-(


    Lol Well at least I'm not alone.
