I'm in bed drinking a cappuccino and watching the Office. I'm planning on running 6 miles this morning and then H and I have a date night tonight. We are going to see Guardians of the Galaxy 2 so I'm excited!! This will probably be our last date night before baby.
BabyStandish how is your rash? Feeling any better today?
I think we are going out for brunch with friends then running some errands. I've got a bunch of things to get done at the house this weekend so hopefully it'll be productive.

PirateCat it's about the same . I didn't wake up in MOTN itching...I did wake up earlier than usual really itchy though. If I'm not on top of my creams I get pretty miserable. The one on my neck isn't as swollen, but the ones on my thighs and arms are starting to blister.

I have to go get a card and something for my mom for Mother's Day today and also some groceries. H needs to go get something by himself (meaning Mother's Day gift) so we're going to send DD with him and baby boy with me. My parents and H's parents and grandparents are coming to my house for lunch tomorrow for Mother's Day. I may be crazy to have a bunch of people in my house at this point but I'm not cooking so it shouldn't be too bad. And I DGAF if anyone is bothered by the fact that my house is a bit disorganized right now.
First night at home with the baby and C wasn't too bad. B is eating every three hours so it's a decent little stretch. The hardest part has been staying on top of C to make sure she's gentle with him and doesn't climb in the rock n play with him.

Just hanging out with baby girl on the couch today. So thankful my mom took the big kids to her house for the week. Don't know how I could do this with them here.
Also PSA don't weigh yourself the week you've given birth. It is not as satisfying as you want it to be. Just wait.
I skipped the gym this morning due to some sporadic painful contractions, but they have since fizzled out. Probably tmi, but I went from terrible constipation to everything goes right through me the past 3 days so I'm hoping that means things are moving along? I've also been beyond exhausted the last few days too. I'm 9 days out from RCS and don't really think I will go before though. My parents are coming up for dinner tonight for mothers day. Otherwise pretty low key here today. It's beautiful so have been playing outside with dd.

I'm down to my pre-pregnancy weight (I was pretty overweight to start with and only gained 18 lbs this pregnancy), however, my body is a mess. I swear my belly button is a good inch or so lower than it was before and I feel like my belly is just hanging. Everything just dropped. I looked in the mirror and wanted to cry. I can't wait until I feel well enough to start taking baby boy for walks around the neighborhood to get a little exercise!
Just hanging out with baby boy watching tv with DH. MIL thought it would be funny to ask to pick up and take DS to visit some of her friends house today. The look on my face was panicked lol. I told DH absolutely not and he's only 8 days old. Then MIL was laughing on the phone saying she was kidding. I did not find that funny lol

Seriously! I had a dr appt to monitor my BP and blood work at 6 days PP... only down 10 lbs I was disappointed but was really swollen still.

H's co-workers gave us a $100 gc to Target so I bought a huge box of wipes and a few canisters of formula with it. I told H and he said "Don't you think we should have used it for something we need?" Ummm, I did. Or are we not going to feed and wipe our child anymore?
