Let's hear it!!

AlfiesMOM · January 2015

My milk came in which means I am now rocking some sweet porn star boobs!

Three day cluster feeding is no joke.

Also, update on the whole pediatrician hospital debacle... went to the pediatrician yesterday and baby J is gaining back some weight!! I seriously love our particular pediatrician she is like he is perfect you are doing great here is a script for APNO ointment. Why couldn't she have been the one who came to the hospital not the douche who wanted me to supplement!

I'm mad at my husband and I don't know why. Something happened during the 3am feeding that pissed me off, but I can't remember what it was..

Fuck that guy, yo.

I got up at 5:30 to get DS ready to go with DH this morning. He is seriously the sweetest sometimes in the mornings (both of them, but I mean DS. He just wakes up saying cute things.)

I was going to go back to sleep until 6:45, but I haven't been able to, so I guess I'll get up. Work today, I'm going to Costco during my lunch break, and no plans for tonight. I got the Christmas decorations put away last night.

I have been congested and more emotional since last night - does that mean labor is imminent??? Jk, but I've been over-analyzing everything, and I kind of hope my water breaks like it did with DS so that it'll be abundantly clear that real labor is happening and I need to go to the hospital.

Late third tri insomnia sucks

Been up since 3 and it's almost 7 now. The good news is that it's my last day of work.. and of course in the last week three surprise last minute submissions.. including one today.. Guess the day will go quick.

Also I've noticed baby boy is not active at all at night.. I remember DD would be pretty active at night. She was a pretty needy night time baby - maybe this guy will be the opposite? I wonder if there is any truth in that. Only time will tell, I guess.

Maebb · January 2015

@pharmgirl1024‌, good luck, and I hope things go quickly and smoothly for you!

liladelphia215 · January 2015

Good luck @pharmgirl1024!

Morning ladies! I finally got off of the mag yesterday afternoon and got to move from L&D to the mother/baby side. Little guy has finally been more awake and requiring less work to wake him up to eat and I feel like my milk is coming in already (took 5 days last time). We got two stretches of 2 hour sleep last night after being up for 2 days so I'm starting to feel like new!

DD came for a quick visit last night and was very intrigued with baby brother. At first I think she thought he was a doll because she grabbed him and jumped when he moved. She was looking at his hands and feet, stroking his hair and giving him kisses, it was too sweet! Can't wait to see what she gets into once were home (hopefully later today)!

MusicFanatic · January 2015

7 hours of glorious sleep, baby.

It's super cold out here so we are definitely staying in. I need to do some cleaning. UMmmmmm.... I need to take down the Christmas tree. I should do that, right?

beccs88 · January 2015

I'm leaving the Christmas tree up till February. F* it.

funinthenorth · January 2015

School is cancelled today - it would have been awesome if we had signed up for the automatic alert and not found after we woke ds up and he was eating raison bran. Oh well, he's pretty excited for his very first storm (minus the storm....) day.

idontevenknow · January 2015

They told me that baby boy would be in the nursery for two hours when they took him an hour after birth. That was almost 4 hours ago... I called the nursery about 30 mins ago and they said they would bring him in 15.... stressing me out :-S

musicgal05 · January 2015

I haven't posted here in forever, but pregnancy insomnia has had me lurking more lately. 39 weeks tomorrow.

I'm supposed to go to Into work today, but the weather has been terrible, and the drive there and back has been causing contractions lately, and I really don't want to be on the road when those ramp up. Also, I'm over putting on real clothes...working from home is an option for me, and I just may be starting a week earlier than I had planned, as I planned to be in the office up to my due date.

MrsFaFa2 · January 2015

I actually slept fairly well last night. I guess my almost 2 year old niece kicked my butt yesterday. I only got up 3 times to pee....as to the 6-7 times a night I've been getting up the past few weeks. My mother is watching her for me today because it is going to snow, and I don't want to drive in it. Today I plan on making pancakes for breakfast, watching Murder She Wrote on the Hallmark Channel (my guilty pleasure) packing my hospital bag and tidying up a bit. My BFF is coming for a visit tomorrow and I am super excited to see her!

It's a winter wonderland here. Hopefully it doesn't last too long.

Chillin at home today.

lexirolle · January 2015

Just ate breakfast, I do the still pregnant check too lol, I also feel between my legs for moisture, then I average out how badly I have to pee if not so bad I roll back over!

kaybeeknits · January 2015

I had contractions for about 1.5 hours starting sometime before 4 am (I tried yo ignore for a while) and stopped around 5:30. Kind of frustrated, but I hope it means something will start up again. I was able to nap until 7:30.

Today is my dad's birthday. He passed away almost 8 years ago...it would be so cool for her to have his bday.

mowl2014 · January 2015

@saiven‌ my heat broke yesterday! No fun! Hope he shows up soon!

Josie400 · January 2015

My dog pooped in the nursery this morning. If that's not a sign I'll go into labor today, I don't know what is.

FitmomJess · January 2015

I slept like crap last night. My pelvic floor and inner thighs are super sore from walking so much. Still preggo....sigh.

nah82 · January 2015

Window guys called yesterday with their estimate to replace the windows that have bad seals that supposedly have lifetime warranties. The cost is not my problem because we rent from my aunts/uncles. The issue is that I just KNEW they'd want to come fix them when it was less than 10 degrees outside and I would have a newborn in the house. That will be exactly the case if they don't come next week, when I have doctor appointments on three separate days that I can't be home.

LuckyPenny1231 · January 2015

I stopped drinking water really early yesterday, at like 5pm. I was sick of getting up to pee so much at night. (I drink a ton of water)

It didn't work. I still got up 3-4 times to pee!! Grrr.

Some of our good friends are coming over with their kids tomorrow to do our Christmas exchange. I'm dreading it. DH thought he was being nice doing it at our house so we don't have to go anywhere. Wrong! My house is super clean and I want it to stay that way! It will be destroyed with 2 year old twin boys.

grinch party of 1.

kilayla13 · January 2015

Nothing interesting to think of on a friday. I'll still be pregnant for another 2 to 3 weeks (at this point I don't care when she gets out... even if it means waiting till feb. 10th which seems so far away.... ) I'm burnt out.

misslizzy82 · January 2015

@idontevenknow - do you have anyone with you that can go cause a scene unless the give baby back?! I would be furious!

SheHulk723 · January 2015

I almost posted an angry rant on Facebook about the USPS, then I remembered MIL has been working there for like 20+ years. That might not have gone over too well lol. So I'll rant here. Seriously, they accepted a package at 8 am 4 whole days ago and it hasn't even left the state of California! I want my package, I'm cranky and impatient and it needs to arrive before baby girl does! Crappy time of year for shipping stuff.

DH promised me morning sex and did not follow through. Well, I told him I'd wash a load of his clothes today and I think I'll not follow through on that haha. Maybe that's why I'm extra cranky this morning. That and the fact that I'm running on 7 hours of sleep in the last 48

kilayla13 · January 2015

Last night I finally had sex time with my man. I was scared to because of the pain last time but he was so gentle and loving it made me cry. Of course (because of me not working) he gave me a huge hickey on my neck... he even thinks he drew blood.. lovely.

I'm so glad today is Friday... I was feeling so out of it but I think I might get up and move around. I don't want to lose any progress I've made so far (glad that doesn't mean anything. If it did a lot of us mommas would be screwed.)

I've been dancing recently and I think I'll be doing that more often. Baby girl doesn't mind my moves and I love getting into the groove LOL ahhh.... I need to put some tunes on. And eat breakfast. Like now. See ya

aremac · January 2015

Day off from work! I'm going to miss it when I'm off for a few weeks.
Still pregnant, rlp is killer moving this belly around now.
Baby shower is tomorrow! Looking forward to seeing people and eating the delicious food!

caitlindenise · January 2015

I've been waking up the past few nights with contractions but they stop!!!!!!! Ugh!!!!!!! 38+3, baby is scheduled to come out next Friday.

mowl2014 · January 2015

Just called in sick to work. Not sure if I'm having back Labour or just slept funny and have cramps. I don't really wanna move . Thanks for letting me complain

4littlebears · January 2015

I made it through the night without going into labor! It didn't look good from about 4-5, but by 7 I was feeling much better. One thing is for sure, I won't be pregnant forever!

LaBellaVida · January 2015

@Firefly3911‌

Sorry about the cluster feeding, I know it sucks! Try and hang in there... Don't give up! You can do this!
Have you seen a LC? Maybe your baby doesn't have a good latch? Is he swallowing, and sucking efficiently? Have you tried a pacifier to see if that will give you a break?

My last 2 babies cluster fed, it's not fun.

@FireFly3911 .. I :x you.

I vacuumed this morning with Zoe in my sling (oh my gosh I'm so happy she likes the sling and carrier I use- I don't know I would get anything done otherwise!!) - she was awake when I started and asleep when I was done. What the heck? How does a kid sleep with a vacuum going for 10 minutes right below her ears?

bkmama · January 2015

Rough night last night. DH came home just when I reached the point of exhaustion, hunger, and feeling gross from not showering in two days. DH was grumpy because he'd had a bad day too, and I think also because i don't have the emotional/physical energy to pay as much attention to him (touching, kissing, sympathy) as I did before baby, and the lack of that comfort has built up to feeling lonely for both of us.

Anyway, I took a shower while the baby cried and cried, and I cried, too. DH couldn't comfort her because she was in the middle of her pre-bedtime cluster feed and just wanted more boob. I was barely able to eat a bowl of soup when I finally made it out of the shower and continued nursing, do j was ravenous an hour later. At that point I was too tired to do anything about it.

LO went to sleep at 10, woke at 12, woke again at 1 (probably due to feeling cold- the apartment felt really cold all night), stayed awake/feeding/fussing until 3:30, woke again at 5:30, stayed up until 7, and slept again until 9, which is why I'm typing this now.

DH helped our all night and was exhausted this morning. I feel bad for him.

Overall- so, so glad it's Friday and I'll have DH home with me for the weekend. I hate spending the whole week alone. Also my sister is coming to visit next week, which will hopefully be nice.

Still haven't had breakfast yet- hurry up, little one! Let mama eat!

bkmama · January 2015

(rant rant rant...)

NicoleMarie0914 · January 2015

Just got a call back from my doctors office. I need to go in at 2:30 today for an ultrasound to prove that my baby is too large to keep my induction date because their policy just changed and it is no longer based on what the doctor says.... WTF?!? Seriously? My Mom is flying down next Friday super early from Wisconsin based on me being told that I would be induced Thursday. Super annoyed at the moment but I guess the silver lining is I get to see dd again before labor, right? = )

bkmama · January 2015

On the positive side- I love cuddling with LO in the morning. She is the best thing to cuddle ever.

@bkmama‌ Coming from a BTDT momma, please know that these first few months are the hardest but you will get through them. It's so important for you to take a few minutes to yourself everyday, even if it's a quick shower with the baby crying on the background.

The nursing and cluster feeding will get better, the sleeping will get better and your relationship will your spouse will get better. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, I promise.

mowl2014 · January 2015

My mom used to swear by the vacuum and sling putting us to sleep....

BackseatDriver · January 2015

I don't like nursing on the left side. No particular reason.

Might be going home this afternoon. So happy about that. I do to want to stay here longer than necessary

Postpartum poop was NBD again.
