shellbell, love Old Navy jeans. I once had a friend majorly side eye me for saying that. And then I said, "well, the jeans I'm wearing now are Old Navy" and she was dumbfounded because she liked them so much. Now she only buys Old Navy jeans. Denim is like the great equalizer. Get a normal cut dark denim without weird zippers and no one can tell if you spent $20 or $200 per pair!
I'm mildly freaking out because the cold DH has been fighting has officially arrived. His voice is hoarse and he's sick. I'm making him wash his hands repeatedly, drink a ton of water, take vitamins, and avoid kissing the baby or getting her face too close to his...
Tonight I'm taking care of her all night and I'm making him sleep in the basement. (It's finished, I'm not that cruel.) I want him to get a ton of sleep without being woken up by E's cries. He'll get better faster if he's resting properly and I really really don't want E to get sick.
Hugs crazycatlady6. Also, good on your husband for letting you rest.
nomnom - how are they sleeping so long?! Tell me all about what you do to make this happen! We have even been offering 4oz for their bedtime and overnight bottles and nothing!
No idea. I feed them however much they want, usually 3-5oz for M and 4-6oz for L. White noise machine???

Thank you everyone for your support, Today was a MUCH better day then the last few days. R is a very easy baby and the gripe water seems to be helping with the gas, thank goodness. Very little crying today = parents mentally recharged.
The three of us got out for R's blood work and a trip to BRU. I feel a lot better about taking him out and about; I made sure I did everything to get us out the door and in/out of the car with specific instructions for DH to be there for support but nothing more since I needed the hands-on experience.
I'm with you all in regards to clothing. I'm 16 pounds from pre-pregnancy weight and nothing fits other than black workout pants. I'm returning my maternity wardrobe to my friend since she is pregnant with baby #3! Completely unexpected and I'm thrilled for her, but I will miss some of the clothes.

I feel like high rise jeans would be useful right now. My biggest post partum jeans cut right across my still flabby post-baby belly, and I definitely have a muffin top. Thank goodness for my 2 flowy nursing tops. I'll be wearing those out in public until the belly goes down some more!
