It's February now so I figured we should start a February Randoms.
Here is a random to get us started. I'm currently pumping in my office's Mother's Room and one whole wall is covered with the birth announcements of all the babies whose moms worked in our office. It makes me happy everytime I see it.

Re: February Randoms
my LO keeps busting out of her swaddle, but then gets pissed. So I got out the woombie we had from my son. She cracks me up in it! Like a little bean
I hate hate hate hate pumping. I try to relax and focus on milk-making but always get interrupted even when my "pumping" sign is up.
@jenkar01 I can't remember if you're in US or Canada, but you should look into Tiny Treasures. They pay for breast milk and convert it into supplements for preemies across the US. It's quite the application process but they pay about 1$ an ounce.
I wish I could give him the burp cloth or muslin to sleep with bc I think it would provide comfort and help him to get to sleep, but I'm too nervous. Anyone doing this yet?
Ellie has been loving laying on the ground with toys all around her she wiggles and rolls all over the place. She also has been loving to eat her feet. It's just the best watching them grow and learn.
@molosmiles I love the feet thing too. I have to take his socks off sometimes because he will saturate them with his chewing and drool.
For those of you with boys, have your sons also discovered their penis? Mine has! Everytime that diaper is off, it's immediately hands to balls. We have to watch out with those poopy diapers because he's so quick. We joke that he is just making sure it's there since he can't really see it. Haha!
We decided to stop swaddling him last night because 2 nights in a row he rolled over in his swaddle and it actually went better than I thought he only woke up twice....hopefully it either stays the same or gets better and not worse!
we started the one arm out of the swaddle too, I felt like she was fighting it so much that it was better to start weaning her away from it.
I thought naps were getting better when she hit month 5, but it's been pretty inconsistent the last few days. My parents were here though, kinda messed with everyone's schedule .
Yeah we cut those little nails a lot too....I dont know if its more to save her or me from scratches!
The inconsistency of naps is driving me crazy too. Yesterday I could barely get 25 mins out of her each nap, wouldn't be a problem if she wasn't such a cranky little girl when tired! And today she slept 3 hours in the morning and is currently on hour 2 of her afternoon nap.
