I get used as a human pacifier as well she does that more often than attempting to actually nurse. I am so frustrated with this pumping and lack of supply all of a sudden. I'm considering renting a medela symphony even though the spectra is labeled as a hospital grade.
I've been reading along, but don't have the energy to respond to everyone! Thinking of you all in the snow, and all that are feeling so done with being pregnant 😔 Time seems to go so slowly, but quickly at the same time now. Baby E didn't want to cooperate for her pictures again, and wouldn't fall asleep. So, I felt bad, the photographer was so patient, but my girl just didn't want to miss any of the action. We went twice, and she was wide awake both times 😳

tex, I've prepped all my newborn diapers too but now I'm worried that ds2 won't fit in them if the doctors are right about him being 10+ lbs... I didn't use cloth diapers till ds1 was 6 months old. I hope I didn't spend all this money over the last few months for nothing.

The ones I got will fit DS2 until he's around 16 lbs.

My dad and bf do not think I should be up on a ladder painting. I gave them my Xena Warrior Princess face. Waiting for contractions to pick up is boring

I'm not going to lie, I am jealous of everyone who is experiencing contractions. I think I've had maybe 3 total over two weeks. There's still hope though, right? I have four days before c-section.

I've been having contractions pretty frequently since the 23rd. Usually from 8-midnight and then they stop.

I'm sad H had to go into work today but so thankful that my mom and dad are over to stay with me. DS1 is being a tiny ass lately and while he's great with DS2, he just has no desire to listen to anyone about anything and I have no energy to deal with that.
My dad is also off to BRU to see if they'll let him pick up our new glider. So excited for it!
thelittleredm, I'm sorry he's being difficult but that's great that he is cool with DS2! Why do toddler have to be such butts? I feel you on that.
I'm hoping he calms down after a couple days and we find a new routine. I'm sure being juggled between grandparent houses and not having H or I around except at the hospital has not helped his tiny devil spawn attitude.
Is it weird that I never had contractions with ds until after my water broke? I'm afraid that I won't know when to go in this time if I have crazy contractions without my water breaking. I've had two small batches of mild, more than cramps but not bh, contractions at night so far. These pregnancies really are so different!

lakegirl, I didn't have a single contraction until my water broke with DS1. So, you're not weird, or maybe we are weird together.
thelittleredm, yeah devil spawn do not do well when the routine is broken (my biggest worry for next week!). I'm glad your parents will be around to help out. DS was born on a Friday and dh was back at work on Monday. It's tough for sure but having help in any form is wonderful.
On the topic of terrible toddlers I just typed up the master schedule for the inlaws (per their request, mil is a retired teacher and we love our lists and schedules!) when they watch ds with the warning to not mess with his bedtime routine. Sleep is serious business in this house. I'm keeping my hopes high, they're normally pretty good about sticking to important rules. He's always done well with his sleep routine when they've had him for overnights before. *crosses fingers*
MissDemeanor, fx they pick up. They do look like they're getting closer together by quite a bit. Are they getting stronger?
I still have time, but I've had what I think are BH contractions quite a bit, just nothing regular and never painful, just occasionally uncomfortable. The first time I felt them I thought LO was just sticking her butt up because that's right where it was. They've happened enough since then I'm fairly certain they were some kind of contraction. Also jealous of the ladies getting so much closer, but I know I'm behind you all and FTM, so while I will hope to go a little early, I'm not counting on it.
With all the crazy things on the internet can you believe there is not a good caboose gif? Except I found this guy from that nerd game, evidently his name is Caboose.
