Whoa. It's 8am and my babies are still sleeping. I just woke up because my boobs are currently fountains so I'm pumping. H handled MOTN wakeups so I slept all night. I know M was up at least once but I don't think G was. Amazing.
@suesposa welcome back:) I'm glad the job search is going well!!! Between my and H for 2015, we were in six different jobs. I felt like professional job searchers. We both eventually landed in one spot and have both been there for a while now without plans to leave but it was stressful.
@suesposa, that's awesome that you have that job waiting in the spring though... I didn't know anyone around here who could recommend daycare either. I literally called 10 home daycares that I found on google and went to see each one. Then called their references. I absolutely love the woman we chose and it's working out great. Good luck, you'll find a good one. And wtf about trying to feed him because you were gone a half hour!
H and I are on day 3 of not speaking to each other and I'm over it. I do not like it and it's not productive! We're fighting about the same/usual problem- lack of intimacy. I still think he's being uber selfish and expecting too much/ too often. With my lack of any sex drive, I thought it would be heavenly to basically be roommates but I was wrong. After 3 days of not kissing and saying I love you, I must call a truce tonight!!
spicysalmonroll maybe the not talking for 3 days was a good thing. Gave you both a break and even made you miss things about him. Hopefully it'll help in the long run.
We've been putting the babies next to each other, trying to get them to notice each other, and it's finally happening! G just smiled at Meyer and then reached out to grab his arm. Be still my heart!!!

Omg how adorable. Hope you were able to get a picture of that moment.

Unfortunately not, but I'm sure there will be more moments!
Yes, because it means I always get handed the fussy baby. Even if he just ate, "he must be hungry! give him to Mom!"
YES!! Drives me insane! Most of the time he just doesn't like the position in which he's being held, but of course no one tries anything before handing him off.
UGH! H worked a double on Halloween so my best friend came over to just hang out and hand out candy. I put a nice roast in the oven and was so excited for her to play with him while I finally sat down to eat in peace for once. NOPE. He started fussing and she immediately handed him over. I'm like come on you suck at this! And then I put him on his play mat and he was fussing a little (not crying) and she doesn't know that he's fine and does that so she repeatedly picked him up and handed him to me like "he was crying".

Thanks! I sent him a message apologizing and he said "so you got the flowers?". I was like um no?? Apparently he sent them right before that hahah
Ugh, I have the opposite. My mom is convinced I am overfeeding my child. She can't be hungry, it hasn't been long enough, or she needs to learn to wait, or she's just manipulating you. She keeps telling me it will be so great when I can give her water instead. She's and infant and her growth is on track, let me feed my child when she's hungry.

Ahh..at least he was also ready to end the silent treatment.
It is recommended to keep breastfeeding even when mom is sick, right? I feel like I have the flu, its awful. I worry about the baby catching it. Of course, she already has if she is going to, I am sure.
She slept from 11pm through til almost 8, and then napped most of the morning til about 12:30 with me. She is currently nursing and snuggling with me because SO cannot handle a grumpy baby.
What part of, I am actually sick, does he not understand? I would be grumpier about it if I didn't feel so crappy. He let our toddler trash the living room this morning and I am pretty sure she got fruit snacks for lunch.
Good luck to everyone returning to work! I can't believe I've been back to work for almost 2 months already. The first couple days (maybe even a few weeks) were a bit overwhelming, but we are now in a good routine. So if it starts out rough, it will get better!!
Evening. DD's daycare pictures came in today and I bought 2 of the 4 poses. Our family pictures together were not so great, she looks pissed in them all and was crying by the end. Her daycare ones came out so cute though, thank goodness!
Guys. Today was a good day! I was so nervous when we dropped E off at daycare. They texted me updates and pictures during the day. And now I feel recharged. I was so happy to hug him and kiss his little face when I picked him up! He went to sleep pretty soon after we got home, and I was sad we didn't get to play.
hannahbear, Yay for a good day for everyone. redhead610, Happy 3 months to your little guy.
Today is my 9th anniversary. DH and I have been through a lot together-the usual challenges of marriage, plus infertility and his nearly fatal car accident and difficult recovery. We are stronger now than ever, being blessed with our two children and good health, with material comfort beyond my wildest dreams and all the love and support from his dad, SM and their families.

Add me to the sick club. I feel like absolute crap. And I think both the girls caught it. Keira is my unicorn sleeper. Usually at night we just lay down (we bedshare) and I pop a boob or a paci in her mouth and she's out within 5 minutes tops. But tonight it took over an hour and a half. Hopefully she sleeps decently the rest of the night.
I think the PP hair loss has begun. Hair everywhere. 😕
That's the worse! I lost so much hair after DD and I have thin hair to begin with. Not looking forward to that. I actually started to take a vitamin for it bc it got so bad.
