Long weekend randoms.

[Ray]

Every time the swing plays Claire de Lune I think of Twilight.

Pokemon GO is going to lose me the baby weight lol

We have no long weekend plans

What's everyone else up to?

[sarcaztic10]

No plans other than adjusting to being a family of 4. H and L will have to go grocery shopping at some point.

I am hoping my milk comes in soon, I have cried about it twice today.

[littlesthobo]

No long weekend plans either. Although I swore to everyone I'd be having a pint this weekend, and that I will do! I've kinda got FOMO with everyone on FB doing all the fun weekend stuff I would normally be doing, but these baby snuggles are pretty awesome too!

[littlesthobo]

Also, we are home now! And the toddler sneezed all over the newborn. It begins.

[icaughtfire]

I'm binge watching Stranger Things. Are you guys watching this??

[prvc678]

Is the long weekend a Canadian thing?

DH has been gone for a few days for a family thing (pre-planned before baby was born). Just for context, baby was born last Wed, we left the hosp on Sat, and he left early Tuesday morning. He will be home tomorrow, and I cannot wait. Baby is doing well, but DD is having a tough time with the transition, and is throwing epic tantrums (she hasn't ever been much of a fit thrower so on don't even know how to handle her right now). Thank God my mom has been staying here and helping, and DD has been going to school 2 days per week, so that helps. I'm just counting down the hours til his flight lands tomorrow night. 26 hours, 31 minutes.

Well. It's official. I'm MOTY. My 17 month old just said "oh shit". Tonight was our first rough night where both kiddos wanted to eat at the same time. I strongly suspect that DD1 has some remaining teeth coming in too, so I'm hoping this passes quick.

[melody330]

What's the long weekend for? IIRC you're in Canada right?

We have visitors coming for the day tomorrow after DS1 swim class.

I'm in a funky mood. It's not baby blues....but it's something. I'm stuck in the house because of this terrible heat wave. But at the same time I'm really nervous to take both kids out alone. Hormones are killing me right now

How many days PP are you? Mine took 4 days to start to transition and by day 6 it was fully in. I'm 8 days PP now and the rock hard overly full boobs are in full effect. If I get too close to LO I have spontaneous let downs. I don't miss this stage!

[rungirlrun]

We get discharged tomorrow so I guess that's when the real fun begins!

My parents took DS1 to Day Out with Thomas today. He had a blast, and I can't say I'm sorry to have missed out (I can only take so much Thomas!).

And random, but I gave birth yesterday and also pooped last night. Go body! Wasn't as awful as pooping post DS1.

[willow]

I have a snuggly baby on my chest and a very curious chessie dog next to me lol.

I'm home. I'm sure visitors will come tomorrow. L is latching and nursing great overall which is awesome. He hasn't pooped since 6am though so I'm hoping he does again soon.

I myself haven't pooped yet and I'm 2 days PP. I think my body is scared lol.

I feel you sarcaztic10 - the 4 days I had to wait for my milk were the worst hang in there.

[Ray]

prvc678 my bad! I thought you guys had one too. I don't even know what the holiday is here. I think it's just a day everyone decides to have off? Civic holiday?

[Ray]

I am proud of myself for figuring out MOTY. Still lost on FOMO lol. Also PWing. Whatevs lol

FOMO - fear of missing out

[katelou]

The thought of another day of 6+ afternoon/evening hours in the house with my bored/whiney DD1 made me want to cry. We went to the mall and spent 2 hours in the play area and at the train table in the book store.

You know your kid is driving you insane when you get more peace in a mall play area with 20 screaming kids than in your own living room.

I am 3 days PP. The waiting is torture, I just want to feed him and know he is full

I'm pretty sure I am. What prize do I get? Lol

[comicSans]

roccobabyk sorry you're still waiting! It's so hard. One way or another you'll have baby in your arms soon and those torturous final weeks will fade. What kind of induction are you planning?

[rungirlrun]

Good luck roccobabyk! Hope your body gets the memo soon. Hang in there!

Yes, I can't wait. My OB said we could do it Sunday but with me attempting a VBAC he said my best option is waiting just a little longer. It's so hard to be patient. I've tried two membrane sweeps and he said he can't believe I'm still pregnant.

To answer your question though, they will do a foley bulb and then low doses of pitocin after that comes out. Which is the induction I had with DD that didn't go so well. Crossing my fingers that this thing just starts on it's own.

Hair pats!!!

Fx for a baby this weekend!!!

[lostinfaith225]

I feel so overwhelmed with 2 kids. Emotionally. I can physically care for both of them, but I'm having so much mom guilt with ds. I think it is because I'm focused on dd and her feeding issues.

I feel really inadequate for dd with her feeding issues because ds did so well. I'm just overwhelmed. Cookies for reading.

[glaze]

J has been sleeping all afternoon, out cold. I'm worried we're going to be up half the night now. Also she's a month old today, how'd that happen!?

No real plans for the weekend. I'm sick of being in the house though. The weather's been humid, hot and rainy this week.

[glaze]

katelou lostinfaith225 Hugs, hang in there. I hope things get easier soon! I remember the stress of having a 2nd, it does get better!

sarcaztic10 Sending milky vibes your way!
