RandomName they have been. They've left a water cup next to him all day. I sent a message to his pediatrician. Hopefully he's just being a toddler and snaps out of it soon.
Thanks for the support all, he dipped down to yellow but then ended the day in green. Hooray! Every day is a little victory I'm meeting with his teacher tomorrow to sort of introduce myself/open lines of communication. Basically to just let her know we're here to support DS and if there's anything we can do to help make this a successful year to please let us know. Looking forward to getting some face time with her.
I think if he ended the day in green after making a mistake, well, for now isn't that just as good as getting a blue? I mean making a good choice is really great and the previous poor choice shouldn't disqualify the greatness of it
I get out of my shower and hear C crying. I rush drying off and putting clothes on. And somehow freaking pulled my neck / shoulder muscle! I can barely turn my head now. Geesh.
@poppykisses he's drinking when I pick him up. Tomorrow they're going to mimic how he was drinking this afternoon even though it's not a normal way I hold him. I'm on vacation next week so I'm going to try and get him holding his own cup even more, he can he just won't some days.
M refused to drink anything at daycare today. When I picked him up he drank the milk they had been trying to get him to drink. He finished it in the car and was crying for more. He drank another full cup of water when we got home. I gave him a bath and he was trying to drink the bath water because he was still thirsty. He had another half of a cup of water with dinner and then a bottle of milk. He's clearly thirsty and I have no idea what to do to get him to drink at daycare. He was drinking and just stated refusing about 2 weeks ago. I started taking in one of the cups drinks from at home. They try to give him drink in different places and ways. I'm so worried because he's getting dehydrated. Any advice anyone has would be welcome. Dehydration freaks me out, his fontanelle is sunken. He's still wetting diapers, but only one At daycare today, so that's a total of two. I don't know if I'm having a FTM worry moment or not. His teacher is also worried though.
Would they be willing to mix a little juice in there?
Dinner was a shit show over her skinandbones. One of addies friends was here cause I sold her mom some baby stuff. C apparently thought I was leaving and freaked the f out. Then my other friend stopped by and he refused to eat.

Tonight I became an aunt! I'm so excited. It's helping curb my "I want another baby right now" feelings. I can enjoy someone else's squish. Soooo excited!
tuscanlatte, Sorry about the fall. I'm glad you can laugh about it.
redandblue, I totally struggle with that inappropriate laughter too. It's the worst! Sorry your DS1 is making you crazy right now. I hope your return to work is going smoothly and that M had a good first day at daycare.
carabassa, Congrats on the sleep training success! I'm so excited for you that you're getting some sleep now! The nap thing sounds really frustrating. Do you have a white noise machine going in her room? Maybe eventually she'll learn to sleep through your H's noise. That has actually happened over here, and A can often nap through her brother and sister playing loudly downstairs, even with the sound machine off now.
csb314 , have you looked into a local private school? I know you don't want k-12 anymore but private school gives you much more leniency in the curriculum.
tmclawchick , I've mentioned here that I have ADHD. If you have any questions lmk. My parents really struggled with whether or not to medicate me and my brother. Just keep in mind that if he's getting in trouble a lot he's probably about as stressed as you are.
joi922 , if you are taking the BC properly there is only a .01% chance you get pregnant so in some ways it's kinda cool to have that security AND not have you period!
But see, it's the freaking mini pill. If I don't take it PERFECTLY every day I'm going to be worried. I would much rather deal with my period. I'm seriously considering talking to my husband about a tubal.
Have you considered asking your H to get a vasectomy? It's not like you haven't tried other forms of birth control and you're having a hard time finding anything that is safe for you and effective. A vasectomy is way more straight forward than a tubal and has very minimal recovery time. So worth it in my opinion.
ampaints, It's not just FTM anxiety, I'd be worried about dehydration too. Has anything else changed when he started refusing to drink? Switching from formula to milk, or any illness? If his throat or ears are bothering him that may cut down on drinking.
I second the suggestion to add in some watermelon and other foods high in water content. If he'll eat any soup while he's there that would be worth a try. You could also ask them to give him some ice-cubes or popsicles or frozen fruit in a mesh teether.
ampaints, i hope M eats/drinks all the water now. When DD was 2 she had some sort of bacterial gi issue where she projectile vomited for two days, it was memorial day. So i took her to urgent care and she was admitted for dehydration. It was one of the scariest life experiences thus far to see her so listless and totally unresponsive.
ampaints, I hate to say it but it might be a control thing. As it's the only thing he can control right now so he is. Has there been any changes? If so he might feel insecure and is controlling what he can.
@janetheconquerer there have been two changes, a new morning teacher which happened about a month and a half ago, and school starting back which means I'm not joke before he goes to bed on Tuesday.

Got to catch up with my sister this morning...she's been traveling a lot lately but since she's in Tokyo this week we've been able to catch up on the mornings. Miss the crap outta her!
Taking DS to school then heading to a doctor's appointment. I have to bring DD with me so I'm hoping she cooperates. Not sure she will be a girl can dream right?

I understand your BC problems. Being selective wth hormones really limits what you can do. I feel ya. Hence my copper IUD that I'm starting to doubt but only keeping because it's better than nothing for now I guess?
Eta: I SUCKED at the mini pill. It lasted less than two weeks.
Just curious why you're starting to doubt the copper IUD? Both my ob/gyn and internist highly recommended it but I'm not enthusiastic.
