I took a shower and got dressed in real (new) clothes today and was feeling halfway decent about the day ahead...then I got peed on and spit up on before I even got a chance to blow dry my hair. And pee got on my entire bed (and pillow- gross!) after finally catching up on all the laundry yesterday.

So it's going to be like that, Thursday?
Update: walked in to find my two bigger kids FLINGING PEE FROM THE POTTY CHAIR ALL OVER EACH OTHER...

Ok Thursday, you win.
Oh hell no. Last year when the boy I nanny was 3, I went to check on him in his parents bathroom. He had shit in his underwear. There was shit EVERYWHERE in his attempt to clean himself. On his hands, legs, butt. On the toilet seat, sink, walls...
DH and I just had a great evening. DS took a long nap from 4:15-7:45. DH made us margaritas and steak tacos with avocado, feta, and tomatoes. We just got to sit and enjoy each other's company. It was so nice.

Have had a hideous day with LO, with him screaming most of the day. I think it's due to wind after trying his first lot of formula. I may have bought a formula too rich. All this to make me feel worse about the fact we may need to supplement and I don't know what I'm doing even attempting it.
And dealing with it all made me stressed and grumpy at my 3 year old. Feeling like a parent fail tonight : (
So went to work for 6.5 hours yesterday and LO didn't eat the entire time. She's refusing the bottle/doesn't know how to use it. I'm off today but go back to work on Saturday for 8.5 hours. I'm feeling really frantic, awful and teary. Any suggestions?

Different bottle? Higher flow nipple? Have your SO keep attempting to feed with a bottle?
gooselover2012 I'm so jealous. My pumping palace is a storage closet in the basement. Like a really deep basement, with thick cement walls. So I don't even usually get cell reception to pass the time. I will take pics later.

I am really sorry.
What's going on that is making you supplement.
I had a sense that baby boy hasn't been getting enough over the past week or so. This was confirmed today that despite him feeding every (sometimes less than) 2 hours his weight has plateaued. My left side has dried up completely so I'm only feeding from my right side and I just don't feel that he is satisfied afterwards. It's a hunch at the moment but I have an LC coming next week to see what we can do to increase supply. Although I wonder if after 2 c-sections and 6 pregnancies in 3 years my body isn't just too tired to do what it needs to this time around.
I just tried on all the pants in my closet. About 85% of them are probably 10-15 pounds away from fitting me. I put those in the attic so at least I know the stuff in my closet fits me for back to work next week. But that was a bit of a demoralizing process 😢
I'm really frustrated by how I can't remember words when I try to hold an adult conversation. Or understand and remember things I'm reading about, and my lack of patience for anything halfway complicated. The lack of really good, restorative sleep since April has fried my brain.
WOOOOO I'm so excited! DH, DS, and I are heading to Milwaukee today to go to a Brewers game! Most of my friends live in Milwaukee or the surrounding area, so we are getting together. Hopefully DS can handle the car ride there.
Ugh. I'm heading to the beach today for the next 2 days and of course these are the only 2 days all summer that it's going to be cool and rainy This is the only mini vacation I'm getting for a while, especially because I'm using all my vacation time on maternity leave. I'm sure we will still have fun with LO but I really wanted her to experience the pool and put her toes in the ocean. Fingers crossed it turns out ok.
