What a week this has been. I should be getting discharged today. I haven't decided if I'm going to stay here in Austin or go home to Houston. The hospital was nice enough to let Leilyn stay here with me. She's hav9a pretty rough time with all of this.

I'm glad you're getting discharged and that you have your LO. Did your husband shape up? Do you think he'd be enough help if y'all went home?
DS is totally going to STTN on the night I'm up with horrible gas pains. (Seriously, now I know why babies scream so much when they have a gas bubble. Thanks, post partum body, for these new and wretched feelings.) On the one hand I'm glad that he's not needing me right now but on the other all that sleep I'm missing.
I had DS up on my shoulder trying to burp him. He started bobbing his head along and shimmied himself over to the center of my chest to fall asleep.
Haha, mine does that a lot too. He'd end up in a fetal position over my belly. The after feeding bobbing is cute, but the before feeding bob is noisy with too much squirming - he'd aim for the boobs and they to lick my bra.

LO robbed me of an hour of sleep! He woke up fussing in his cosleeper. I grabbed him out and was about to feed him, he fell asleep in my lap. Now I don't want to move cos he's so settled on me. He should have just stayed asleep in the cosleeper and let me have this hour!
LO barely slept and after a short 3 hour stint of sleep (took him an extra hour to go down in the first place), he ate for an hour, slept for an hour, ate for an hour, slept 30 minutes, and then wanted to eat some more. I had to give him the evening BM supplement bottle to keep him from ripping my nipples off.
Back to drinking a ton of nursing tea again. I hate the taste of it.

Drives me crazy when I know DS is hungry and when I get settled he just licks my boob instead of latching. I have to laugh at his facial expression when he does it tho. Like someone swirling & sniffing a glass of wine before trying it.

Yay for being able to leave the hospital! Glad you've been able to have your daughter with you!

Not really. I've just accepted that he's not going to be as helpful as I need him to be. He will be more helpful at home though. I think he realized that he could have lost me this week.

Hahaha, I've always thought of DS as a drunkard. He does the same with me, sometimes he'd take the nipple in his mouth and lick it instead of getting right to business. I'd always get him off my boob in case he tries to shallow latch me! Another bad habit he's picked up lately is to shake his head while latched. Jesus, kid. I'll move you back to the bottle if you continue to hurt the nipple that feeds you.

Haha little drunkard. I like that. Yeah if DS has to pass gas he'll twist his head side to side still latched. Not cool.

I'm glad he didn't lose you. Being a parent is a learned skill, so even if he's slow to pick things up I hope he improves.

And that is why I will go to exclusive pumping instead of breastfeeding when he gets teeth. He bites me with his gums now, so I can only imagine how destroyed my nipples will be if teeth are added to the equation.
LO likes to slurp my nipple in if I'm not careful. If I press on his back between his shoulder blades, he'll get a deeper latch. But the slurping latch is weird.
DH is trying to give Gabe his first bottle and baby is just screaming and I'm in the back of the house trying not to cry. I know they'll get it. I hope DH keeps to paced feeding even if they're frustrated.
DS took 1.5 oz from the bottle while I pumped, and now he's nursing to top him off. DH did pretty well pacing I think, and I managed not to cry. My head knows it'll be good if DS is capable of taking a bottle but my heart is jealous of our nursing time.
lilyelayne sorry it is so hard on you, but I imagine it will get better. When a time comes and you want to go out and don't have to worry about being back to feed him it will be nice.
And no matter how many bottles he takes it won't ever take away the bond of nursing him.

I got a text saying an authorized user has been added to my cell phone account. Then I lost service on my cell phone completely. And then I got an email saying that my new iPhone 6 is on its way and they will bill me $749.
And then another email confirming my purchase of another iPhone 6 plus.

I also don't have a home phone.
Yikes. Hope you get this sorted tomorrow.
H managed to call from work and get everything shut down. So they can't order more or make changes to my account. But I still have to contact the fraud department and get eveything sorted out. I gave up tonight after an hour on hold and my phone dying.
Also, on one of the order confirmations, it has a shipping address.
misshart00, wow, I hope you get everything sorted soon! If you use gmail, you can sign upnfor a google voice account and make free calls from there on your computer so you can be on hold forever without draining your cell phone's battery or minutes.
Ugh, LO regressed in his sleeping routine. Slept terrible all day and night today. Wouldn't sleep at all til about 10 and then woke an hour before his feeding to fuss.
