Is anyone doing crafts with the LO for the holidays? Any ideas? Last year we did a salt dough footprint ornaments. I might do her hand this year. What other crafts can I do!!! She's too messy for prints.

Another one for bawling my eyes out at that Santa story. Why would I do that to myself pregnant?
Today was my midwife appointment. I measured 31 weeks which is on track, but I measured 31 weeks at my last appointment and the one before that too. She said she's not concerned yet since I was "ahead" and now "on track", I haven't gotten smaller, baby is moving a lot, HB is good and all that jazz. They did say if they measure me next time in 2 weeks and I'm the same again they will send me to get checked to make sure the umbilical cord is not partially obstructed somehow. I'm just trying to go with the flow and not worry because baby is very active and the midwives have been very cautious up to this point so I feel if she was REALLY worried she would have sent me today.

I measured smaller at my last couple of appointments and I was sent in for an ultrasound where they estimated the baby to be a little bigger than average. I think maybe he was just sitting lower.

Snow globe craft? I bought mini glitter packets so I could cut one open and help them dump one full packet in. I also did salt dough ornaments but cut them out with cookie cutters then after they dried the kids decorated them (DD1 used paint, DD2 used washable marker)

Wrapping tiny stocking gifts seems like way too much work to me. They are already hidden in the stocking.
My mom used to actually have all the gifts from "santa" unwrapped and spread out on the couch for us to discover on Christmas morning. Small gifts in the stocking and larger items on the couch. We each had our own couch. It's an easy way to do it if you have a lot of gifts. My mom only wrapped the gifts that she labelled as from mom and dad.

I've wrapped stocking gifts every year except this year. I just didn't want to lol. I'll probably put some tissue paper in the top like a gift bag just so they can't peak in. Being away from family I've had to wrap our presents plus the gifts people are sending for the kids so it's like twice as much wrapping for me. I'm over it.

I can't believe how many wrap their stockings!! I need to have a discussion with dh to make sure we are on the same page! Stockings were always overflowing and never wrapped. In fact, as we got older, my parents used them as a way to get another hr of sleep on xmas morning. My brothers could only open their stockings in my room when they woke up.

I missed C's feeding tonight bc I was at gymnastics w DD. Now my boob is throbbing! I wanted to pump enough just to take the edge off, not make up for the feeding I missed. I got 2oz and my boob is still tender but not in pain like before. Popping some lecithin as a precaution.

I probably would have just pumped the feeding since I plan to continue it? Actually I usually do since I regularly miss 2 bed times from guard.

I'm just not trying to maintain a supply at the moment. I am hoping we can gradually start weaning in the next 2 or so months. But I'm going to be tapering down very very very slowly.
