I swear ppl started talking about my next one before this one was out. In fact my MFM came to see me right before I went in for surgery to say sorry I didn't get a second shot at the external version but next time he was confident I would be able to VBAC.

I mean we do plan on having more but what is up with ppl asking when?! Now my whole family is like when do you think you'll have a second one? Slow down everybody!!!

Then after your second, if you dare to have a third or more, you get the "was it planned?" or "your family is so perfect as it is"

Especially if you have one of each sex.

H is already talking about a second kid. I'm like I dont like sex right now, so no. Not to mention, I dunno if I can go through everything we went through again. It was just to much.

I expressed my concern about possibly getting pregnant (post-sex of course, like an idiot) before MH took his work trip. His response? That he would be ecstatic to find out I was KU.

DNW 3u3 and ESPECIALLY DNW possibly 3 in diapers.

The thought of 3 in diapers made me want to vomit. Two is hard enough. Too bad my almost two year old is nowhere near ready to potty train.

The nephew I babysit full time is still in diapers. He just turned 3 and is nowhere near potty training. It's freaking horrible. He poops more than my 2 kids combined. DS will pee in the toilet but is still solidly in diapers too. 3 in diapers blows. Although I use cloth and my brother buys my nephew's so at least I don't have to buy them.

My 3 year old is still in diapers. He's also autism spectrum. We're starting a potty training module through ABA though when we get back from our trip towards the end of June. So, yeah... 2 in diapers is enough. DNW anymore... we tried to PT him in January but he wasn't communicating when he had to go and refused any toilet other than his Lightning McQueen potty chair. So it wasn't working unless we were home and he was naked, so we took a break.

While working pt for my bil a girl came for an interview. We chatted while we waited for bil. In that time she asked me multiple times what we were planning to name the baby AND if I was planning to have more. Thank you stranger for basically asking about my sex life.

I feel like when you have 2u2 people either assume that you are done or that you are going to reproduce annually like good Catholics (pardon the stereotype but DH's family is Catholic so it is actually a phrase they use). Neither is true for us but of course with future theoretical children we will get the "were you trying for a boy?" Why must everyone question the why??

Love tit for commiseration. And I'm tired of people suggesting that if I get a little potty he will potty train himself. It doesn't work that way people!

Grrrr! I left some very important pump parts on the drying rack at home and now I'm stuck hand expressing at work. My boobs are on fire and the output is dismal. I'm so glad it's Friday.

Trying to liven this place up by adding threads. Any update on Pugs SheilaTheTank?

[xxkimmy8xx]

You guys. For the second time this week we haven't had 3 hours of crying before bed. It's amazing... so much less stress.

Has anyone come across any sun hats that are really small. The smallest I have found is 0 to 6 months, but there is no way LO will fit into that anytime soon. She just fits into the newborn size hats now... So something newborn or 0-3 months?

[fignewt]

I hired my friend who is a post-partum doula, and it is some if the best money i have ever spent. She will be with me for the next two weeks (two days per week) and then i guess i will have to start doing my own laundry, etc. Blech!
I wish i had known about post-partum doulas with my last two babies. 100% would have asked DH for one instead of a push present!!

I'm in Canada but Walmart had little bonnets that might fit.

So jealous! I wanted one so badly this time around, but the one certified PP doula just had a baby prior to V being born and was out of commission.
Next time though!

H left this afternoon. I'm on my own until June 5th

And of course my middle child isn't eating and felt warm. He's also been napping since before 2:00, which is unlike him.

Now watch the puke bug hit my house....

Why does dealing with mortgage brokers feel like dealing with the slimiest used car salesmen. Ugh... Gives me such a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach
