What's your Mama win today?

ForeverEverAfter · October 2015

Take a moment to brag-what made you proud of yourself today?

DH is at work til he meets me at his family supper. I got both kids up, all of us dressed and fed twice, did dishes and laundry with them, and managed to get them both to nap at the same time (!!) long enough to make a pumpkin pie from scratch! Plus I had time left over to eat cookies while checking the bump

most of the time I'm running around wanting to cry (or crying), but today I feel like supermom!

Had a bunch of successful breast feeds back to back!

My win is that my 5 week old slept completely through the night last night! Put him down for bed at 2am after his bedtime bottle and he didn't wake up until 8:30! It was so nice to sleep for that long

I brushed my teeth before 3pm..

DH stayed home with 19 month old and 3 week old and I went to a craft show.

I found time to work in my art room while baby hung out and napped in the ktan.

Got some smiles from my little guy :-)

Took my 4 and 6 year old to a bday party while DH stayed home with the baby. We were gone for 5 hours at a kids bday party and I feel relaxed! Lol. DH made dinner, took care of the baby who didn't nap at all and did some cleaning. My win is that I picked the right DH who has more motherly instincts and domestic prowess than me!

My collective wins are breastfeeding completely without the nipple shield at 3 weeks old, and being able to clean the house/do laundry while wearing the baby.

My newborn and three year old are both asleep before 8pm! I am so proud of myself for how well I am doing with two kids on my own while my husband is deployed. I thought it was going to be a disaster but I've tried to stick to a routine and keep up with all of my cleaning and it makes me feel so much better when I have a clean house.

I showered, cooked dinner and did a load of laundry all in the same day

I absolutely agree about having a clean house! My husband keeps telling me to ease up on the housework but it makes me twitchy when the house is a mess. Good for you for doing such an awesome job while your husband is deployed - you are amazing!

I ate breakfast AND lunch today

PregNancyClark · October 2015

We made it to church! And I started sharing baby with daddy more. (He cooked breakfast with baby on his shoulder.) I'm going to make an effort to do that kind of thing more often since we all enjoy it.

I took the 2 kids out to Home Depot all by myself! We also got our Halloween display set up on the front lawn.

rebeccabloomwood · October 2015

We went to two thanksgiving dinners (one a lunch) and we were on time for both! It's amazing I can even get out the door with both kids let alone be on time to something and then travel an hour to the next without a break down.

jene10e · October 2015

I went out with my best friend and then my best friend and I took my daughter out for a walk around the neighborhood for a while. It was also nice to be able to put on my tennis shoes for the first time in a month! :-)

smiversen · October 2015

I got the little guy to take a bottle from me!! I go back to work soon, so that's pretty important!

jabeauty90 · October 2015

I made it all day with all 3 kids by myself without killing someone. Grocery shopping and housework too. Only 12 more hours!!!

AmandaNacora · October 2015

I actually got to shower me and baby, get dressed, clean house, and do my hair and make up before noon! But it's been a grumpy day also, LO has been fussy and refusing to sleep I broke one of my bras when i bent over (I only own 2 atm) my waterproof eyeliner crapped out on me mid eye, I have a hole in the only pair of jeans that fit, I could keep going lol. So I won and lost today.

ReneeJ2011 · October 2015

We made it to church and then I left back yard with DH and had some mommy time shopping for and bought a new fall/winter wardrobe since nothing fits even though I'm at my prepregnancy weight (it must be the 3 cup size larger boobs)

monicaP · October 2015

We stayed in a hotel last night, all 5 of us in one room, and it wasn't a disaster! DH held the baby from 8-11 so I could get some sleep. After that LO and I had spotty sleep, but it ended with a 1.5 hour stretch and even though she fussed much of the night (as per usual) she did not wake everyone else. Plus LO slept the whole car ride down and back.

I breast feed Kennedy today for the first time for more than five minutes and didn't have to pump tonight at our midnight feeding. At dhs family thanksgiving they got me straightened out in 5 mins compared to the 3 Lcs I have seen, ob and the public health nurse. Here's to hoping I don't have to pump for every feeding.

pixiecut · October 2015

Yesterday, I got in the shower before noon got baby bathed, dressed, and BF with no crying. The real win.. we went to target for baby essentials then the grocery store for real food and she slept the whole time! Mommy wins are getting more frequent! Good luck ladies enjoy yours!
