We planned on hosting a 99th birthday party for MH's grandma tomorrow. She just got admitted to the hospital for rectal bleeding. 😓 MH is really upset as this is his last living grandparent. Good thoughts appreciated.
I'm sorry uclameghan, I hope she's home soon and able to celebrate.
AFM, For the past two or three nights dinner has sounded good and set well on my stomach. I hope that means I'm turning a corner with this nausea. C's been sleeping really well in her room with 1 sometimes 2 wake ups for a bottle and then right back to bed. It's been sooooo much better than the ridiculousness that was her first 9 months of sleeping.
Had DD1s bday party today. I'm wiped. Putting Freya down for a nap then tonight we're going to our city's street dance, my family's restaurant has a booth set up. Tomorrow is DD1s actual bday so she will get doughnuts & her present from us in the morning.
****loss and living child discussed***** We're queer. I'm 34, have severe stage 4 endo, and both fallopian tubes are gone. My love ("Manada" 33) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tav.in and Ca.sey at 21 weeks gestation.
We are a few hours north of Toronto at my partners' grandparents' place. It's really nice to be out of the city. And Ellis had a lot of fun crawling all over their yard and going in the lake. She's crawling on hands and feet and also crouching like that and she's getting super duper efficient about pulling to a stand and occasionally stands for 5 sec on her own. I have a feeling walking isn't too far away

I got mom-judged three times yesterday, three different moms and three different scenarios.
1. Wearing M in a ring sling at the playground. Another mom has a newborn wrapped in a back carry. The grandmother says, "look another baby wearer." She says "that's just a ring sling, mom" complete with eye roll and disdain. Even Glen and my dad commented on it.
2. Dinner at a friends. M is playing in a baby coral with an 11 month old. The mom leaves the room and it's me and the dad. Dad wants to hang with the other dads outside so I tell him go ahead I'll watch the babies. Mom comes back and admonishes dad for leaving their baby "alone with a stranger." It was one room away in an open concept house and they were in a gate.
3. M has a full sippy of water with dinner. Mom "you give her water? my pedi scolded me for giving water at that age."
For the first time since he was born, A didn't poop at all yesterday. No poop when I got him this morning but now he smells!!! I'm legit scared to look at that diaper
Today is H's last day of vacation. Val was up around 5:30, so I nursed her in bed and she slept till 6:30. We all got up for the day after that since DS woke up from all of Val's morning babble. About 2hrs later I was nursing Val & she was slowly falling to sleep. It was making me tired. I brought her up for a nap but she totally woke up ready to play again. I brought her downstairs to the boys and went back up to nap. I woke up to H putting her down for a nap over an hour later. DS was quietly watching his show downstairs so we fooled around & had sex.
Yucky day again today. No plans just relaxing before H has to go back to work. I think everyone will be sad once we are back to the normal grind again, we really got used to having him around more & he is sad to go back.

I cracked my phone screen Thursday and had it replaced and didn't notice until I got home that all the colours are washed out looking and it's really hard to look at my phone. I'm hoping when I call on Monday that they'll do something about it but I'm afraid they're going to tell me I'm stuck with a phone that hurts to look at.
