@candechicago - I don't know about paint but I was at TJMax the other day and saw a hand/footprint molding kit. it was small and pretty cheap and in the end you are left with a really cute imprint to hang up. Here is an example from buy buy baby.
I tried to do this and it was a disaster. Lucy keeps her hands curled up, so I couldnt really get a hand print. And you need to use a lot of pressure imprint the foot (or hand) so it was rough. Paint would be way easier.
I stayed home after my water broke for about 7 hours. My dr just said to stay hydrated and take my temp every hour. Although the entire time I was having horrible contractions and got 0 sleep. Let's hope you were able to get some.
In laws are coming tomorrow. Yeah. I would love a weekend to myself. MH and I haven't had two days together since before Thanksgiving. I would really like some time with just him and Chalupa. Oh well.
Wondering if we should have our own separate breastfeeding thread? For questions, tips, links etc. I know there is a BF board but I also see other BMB with their own BF thread. What do you ladies think? @CandEChicago ?
Start it. It can be like the FTM thread or Hodor. We could also make it a sticky fir a couple of weeks.
Okay, TMI Saturday... one of my stitches is half out so it pulls every time I wipe and OUCH! I tried cutting it shorter, bad idea.. too thick, more ouch. Anyways... hope you are all well and that is why there is no action here lately!
This. Exactly this. Except its frowned apon with an inside baby.... well the amount I want anyway. 4 children from hell until the 5th 40weeks pregnant as of tuesday so glad my boyfriend offered to take his 3 kids all of christmas vacation while he works most of it. Thanks babe love you too....
I feel so much love for this tiny human we have. I just wish my immune system wasn't so shot. I went through the whole pregnancy avoiding any kind of sickness and now I've got a nasty cold. Thank goodness for meds.
November Siggy Challenge: How I feel in the Third Trimester
Sitting in L&D waiting for a non stress test and urine samples. 4cm dilated just had a drs appt and dr wants baby here by new years. Glad the hospital has cable the one thing I enjoy while here. Lol
Well I'm home all my tests were great. I had a sweep at this mornings appt and have been having some back pain since I was released so maybe I'll be back in tonight fingers crossed.
I've been mostly lurking and love titting since I hate typing much on my phone and I've mostly been on mobile the past week.
Our baby girl arrived at 8 am on 12/22 via scheduled RCS for breech position. The hospital policy currently doesn't allow for "family centered" sections. It was not fun to watch her while on the table and not be able to hold her immediately. I was just counting the minutes in recovery until I was able to put her skin to skin. But overall, my 2nd section has been a vast improvement over the first.
Hope you've all been well and had a nice holiday!
D14 November Siggy Challenge - How I Feel 3rd Tri:
I want to see the damage done to my vagina. But...I'm kinda scared. I know there are stitches and I know they go waaay back....maybe in a few days.
I took a peek a few days ago after my midwife told me my vagina didn't even look like I gave birth 3 weeks ago... Very sweet of her to say but she LIED! I'd say take as long as you can stand it before looking or it may make you really fucking upset.
I looked downstairs and was surprised that it didn't look bad at all (maybe because I mentally prepared for a disaster??) Prepare for the worst so you can be pleasantly surprised

This. Same here! However I can see all stitches, some are all in and some are half out...that is a messy sight.
I looked at my vag. It looks normal. *ducks to avoid flying objects*
I am also panty liner worthy bleeding.
i just want to have sex.
Oh, I tried to shave my vagina last night.
Tried being the word.
Welcome to the Jungle.
I dulled my razor after 5 minutes.
This. Word for word. I ended up using my electric trimmer and then went back and tackled it with a razor. It was a 2 day process because let's face it, I don't get that much bath time these days.
Throughout my pregnancy, and even postpartum, I've been pooping quite well.. Well, I forgot to take my colace yesterday. Almost passed out on the toilet today. Moral of the story: take your stool softeners!
Soooo... does anyone else's baby sound like a balloon that a ten year old is slowly deflating by squeezing the air out of? 'Cause mine does. All the time.
Yes! When he eats he squeaks. My pedi said he will grow out of it. Freaked me out at first but now I think it's kind of funny.

Hah my LO smacks his lips after nursing. It's hilarious.
Re: Hodor 2.0!!!
@CandEChicago my husband made these cute 3d hand and footprints using playdoh and plaster Paris...

And these DAMN roids....ugh! I really hope they go away eventually.
And my crazy is manifesting in a way that has me constantly checking on her to make sure she's ok, breathing, etc.
I discovered my hemorrhoid yesterday. I made it through my whole pregnancy without them and now I have one. No fun!
Chalupa is worth it though.
