I used to dread Monday's...but now I look forward to them because DD can go into daycare. 😬
I'm at the lab with B for hopefully what will be the last heel stick for his jaundice. His complexion is looking better, so I'm hopeful the results will put this saga to rest for good.

Gosh darn it! I thought we had a weight check today. I think it's on the calendar for today. I just got a text confirming the appt for tomorrow. And the appointment card in my wallet says... Tomorrow. We're already pulling into the parking lot...
We have double grandma duty coming over in the morning and afternoon to help out. DD will love the attention. She's cutting all of her incisors so you can guess her mood lately!

N just finished nursing and I need to get her to sleep because DS will be waking up any second.
I should pump but I only have about 90 minutes before we need to leave for chiro. I was hoping for more sleep but that's probably a recipe for running late
ellabee yay for daycare! Enjoy the quiet judyblume14 definitely done that before. Maybe they could take you anyway? heybulldog56 go you! Terrified of that day here
First full day at home. DS1 was a nightmare to get up for school this morning, meltdown city over getting dressed. The only time he smiled was when they came to say hi to the baby, sigh.
My milk is in, and it looks like I have another spitter on my hands. Part of me is still keeping my fingers crossed it's still all the mucous from hardly any pushing. Pediatrician appt this afternoon.
@orangcrush, I remember incisors being worse than molars for DS1. Teething sucks.
heybulldog56, only an hour and a half - I'm impressed! Yet to do this in less than 2!
Ugh, I feel like crap. Thankfully DH didn't go to the gym as planned so he'll take DS1 to daycare today. I still have to get ready and out but just with one kid makes it easier.
LO is 1mo old today! How did that happen?? We're off for his pedi appointment this morning. Then I have to drop some papers off at work (hoping for a very quick visit when everyone is at lubch) and go to the post office. This afternoon will hopefully feature a nap.

They were able to take us 30 minutes later than what I thought our appt was. Our credit union has a branch in the hospital, so we used that time to get her saving acct set up.
Holy shit guys. At 2w3d, this baby is already a half pound above her birthweight. Compared to our toddler who didn't get back to BW until about 8 weeks!
I need to go grocery shopping today, but it's cold out and I don't feel like moving from my bed. B is sleeping in the dockatot next to me. That thing is seriously the best.

So I god better sleep than I thought I would. H is still home and sleeping I thought he was supposed to go into work. No clue why he didn't. I don't want to wake him up if he is going in later or something.

I feel like shit this morning. I've been struggling with getting warm the last few days when I'm in bed which means sleep has evaded me. I finally brought a heating pad to bed this morning and yet another blanket. I just feel off. I also have a major headache, probably from lack of sleep. And my boob is still in pain. I have no clue what I did to make it painful.
DH and I both got more sleep last than we've gotten since W came home. I'm starting to feel more human. And I'm getting the hang of this pumping thing. I'm kinda keeping up with W on production and what he's eating.
DS1 is doing ok. He's getting used to the new norm but if. It's of us are occupied, he acts out and throws things.
thelittleredm are you having any redness in your breast? Any fever?
What you're describing sounds an awful lot like it could be mastitis
No and no. I checked for both. My skin is really sensitive like with a fever but nope, in my normal range. I'm going to keep an eye on it just in case.

Could be a clogged duct. I had one that didn't reach mastitis-level but still made boob feel awful, my skin sensitive and me feel like crap.

thelittleredm, sorry you feel shitty. I hope whatever it is doesn't last long. I felt really cold last week for a few days and eventually started to feel normal without ever getting sick or anything. No idea why that happened to me but maybe it's happening to you to? Possibly hormone related?
I think you just gotta ride it out. Changing hormones in the baby's body and such can cause it I think. My DD had it pretty bad around 3-5 weeks and it went away by itself. I have heard that some people try to put breastmilk on it, but I can't tell you whether it works...
Ugh. Bili levels still a bit high at 17, but they haven't changed since Thursday...so that's something? Seems like maybe he's found an equilibrium with the amount that's building up and the amount his body can break down. Hopefully from here it'll go down. Too bad there's no sun out today to stick him in. I'm ready to put this behind us.
