Up for feeding #1. Hoping LO will go right back down.
I'm a lie concerned about my supply. Starting yesterday afternoon it felt way down. I'm not sure what's going on. Trying to up the water intake and get good sleep (yeah right).

So far we are on an every day three hour feeding with both babies so I'm getting 2 hours of sleep in between. I'll take it. At the pedi office the other day a woman in the waiting room commented to me that the best day of her life was when her twins could hold their own bottles. I'm thinking I agree with her!

I just gave DD her bottle and put her down. Now I'm pumping before nap time.
I'm letting DH sleep tonight. Last night I had a horrible migraine. The kind where even light bothers you. So he insisted I go upstairs, close the bedroom door, not worry about E, and get some rest. I slept for 4 hours and when I woke my migraine was about 80% gone. It felt so good to sleep for 4 hours straight. He's a good man.
Up for feeding # 2 here. LO gave us a 4.5 hour stretch..love him. I've discovered I need to nurse him and then give him an ounce of pumped milk to keep him satisfied until my supply is better. It's made life much better.
My H is literally trying to compare his supposedly only 3 hours of sleep to my 1... are you fucking kidding me? What a shit show of a day this will be.

Started tonight with DH in a mood. He doesn't get in them often but when he does its like a fucking man cold, how annoying he gets. It just came out of nowhere because we had a great day as a family, but suddenly he was all pouty and silent and "no, no, I'm fine" with no eye contact. What are you, a 12yo girl? Fuck. K vent over.
My ACTUAL child has been pretty good. I think he was exhausted from the big day out because instead of starting to party at 9 he was sleepy so I woke him to feed at 10, then lay down myself and I've been up at midnight and now (3:15). So far 100% PnP success, though I may have just jinxed myself typing that.
Not a great night for us. We did get. LO1 moved back to her bed so that was maybe the only success. Twins were sleeping great after first night feeding/bottle. Slept from 7 toll 10:15. But then up at 11,1,2 and now 5. We'd been doing better with both in their RnP's but now DH will take a baby and let it sleep on his chest to get better sleep so it isn't gonna help us at all long term. Yes that night we do get slightly better sleep.

I'm up for feeding #2. I nursed, then he had a huge poop. So I changed him and got back in bed. Now he has violent hiccups and we're trying to settle with the pacifier. DH'S alarm goes off in 30 minutes and I'm praying it doesn't wake up DD1.

Yup, jinxed myself. Now DS wants to party. We're on the couch watching Bones on Netflix. Far to early to be up for the day, and my other 2 have a booster vaccines appointment this afternoon. I sense a nap in my future.

Rough night on our end too. R only gave me 2 two-hour stretches, and 3 one-hour stretches. I hope this is some freak night because it was horrible and DH is already heading out the door for the day. Bring on the coffee.

I hate it when they say dumb shit like that. I hope your day today is better than your night was.
