What's worse than a sick baby?....sick twin babies. LO1 gave them her cold. Darn it!! Guess we didn't watch LO1 enough when she was around them. Lil G is so stuffed up.
Oh no @jacks605!! That's terrible I hope they feel better soon!! N is still dealing with this stomach bug we all had but I'm hoping he's starting to feel better. This has been brutal...

11pm here and we just got back from BILs party. We stayed way longer than I thought, but the kids were being good and having fun. Now DS is still in party mode of course. We'll see how this goes.
This is the second night in a row of a 4-5 hour first stretch and I'm so grateful. Having a little trouble getting LO back to sleep now so I'm watching 48 hours and reading the blinds thread.

E was cluster feeding from about 4:30-8:30pm. Just extremely fussy, demanding food every 15 minutes. She must be going through a growth spurt.
She slept from about 8:30-12:30 though which was great. Then after her 12:30 feeding, slept until 4.
DH thinks he's coming down with a cold (great!) and is feeling super tired so I told him I'd handle this feeding/ changing session and then pump.
Ugh. Just gotta take one for the team. She was in my arms from basically 12-8 yesterday, so I'm kind of tired too, but I'd rather try to nip this cold of his in the bud...
Well the night hasn't been terrible. But we've yet to get both babes sleeping in the RnP. DH has been alternating between crabby babes. He's letting me sleep more since it's a weekend and during the week I let him get more sleep.
P just did a 5 hour stretch and DH did the midnight feed so this is my first wakeup with her. I feel like a new person!! I made a bigger than usual bottle, I suspect she's going to be extra hungry:)

@jacks605 ugh! Sorry both babies are sick. Hang in there!
LO slept pretty well last night. He went right back down after both feedings. I wish he would start giving me longer stretches, he is going 2-3 hours at night. It will happen eventually. Now I'm up pumping.
shellbell I wore the lanisoh disposable nipple pads all the time with DS1. This time I only wear them at night. But I highly recommend them, no need to wake up wet.
I've been wearing nipple pads. But things...shift while I'm sleeping. I just feel like I'm almost 5w into this thing. Boobs need to start acting right!
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to nurse with one hand. Whenever I try to do it her latch is not great and I get blisters on my nipples. I wish I could go on my phone during MOTN feedings.
I'm pumping now because MH fed S two bottles instead of the normal one. I would have slept in but my boobs woke me up,
