MOTN 3/2 Starts Now!

[allisong87]

Mainly because N is usually sleeping by now but decided he wanted to bust out of his swaddle and stay up late to party with mom.

He also has some major baby acne going on.

Did 2nd dose of Tylenol on babes and another round of stretches and both babes are MAD. Just nursed and now doing supplement bottles. FX they cash out and sleep while the Tylenol is in their systems.

[allisong87]

@jacks605 - I hope the Tylenol does the trick and they (and you) get some rest!

[musicallyinclined]

DS is having his last feed before bed. He's been nursing all evening so I'm hoping he's just topping off. He doesn't seem super interested.

Sending everyone sleep vibes. Come on babies, be kind to your parents tonight.

[dancerspose]

Doing one more pump while DH gives Z another bottle (that we woke her up for). FX she goes down quickly after eating and let's us sleep.

DS is having another super gassy evening. It probably doesn't help that this kid keeps eating! There is no way he is still hungry and I'm just waiting for him to blow a hole in the bottom of his diaper with all the grown man farts he is producing. Still 8:30 here. Hoping I can get him through the worst of the gas so he'll pass out and give us a good stretch.

R nursed 5-6, then 7-9! And she's already awake at 12. I'm not a happy camper and my boobs aren't happy either.

[monicageller]

allisong87 DS has baby acne too, poor dude. I had it as a baby too.

flyinghorses6 ugh, hang in there.

Afm: up for feeding #1. Hoping he gives me a good stretch after this.

[littleredfish]

Finally lay DS down after nearly 4 hours awake and angry. Boy better be passed out for a good stretch. Going to bed early. My ears are ringing from the screaming.

Update: well that lasted all of 20 mins before DH came in the room making about as much noise as a baby elephant and then acted surprised that he woke him. Really? Open the door loudly, tell the dog to move in a loud voice, shut the door hard, toss your jeans and belt across the room so your belt hits the wall loudly, get in bed so that it makes every creaking sound possible. What are you, new here? I basically ninja that kid into bed like a bomb about to go off, and here we are again.

I'm up. Poppy has a stuffy nose so she sounds snortly drinking her bottle right now, poor baby. She's been finishing her 2oz bottles at night so I just made a 4oz in the hopes that she chugs more and does a longer stretch of sleep. Here's hoping!

DH does this all the time. He's the loudest person on earth. So frustrating.

B gave me a 6hr stretch! I've been patiently waiting for this moment for several weeks. My boobs are not happy but my brain surely is. Now I'm rocking B back to sleep. I thought he was out cold after nursing on one side but I went to pump the other and came back to him wide awake and grunting.

Intruding to say I had a baby tonight!! I posted in Thursday's thread. She's so tiny. I'm so tired. And sore. Ouch.

It's a guy thing...they think they are being quiet.

Well Tylenol when actually taken (LO1 fought so hard with meds- these two practically suck it from the syringe!) does seem to help sleep. Ate at 9 and now eating again. Unsure how the next wake up will be since Tylenol my wear off in about an hour.

And LO1 is back in bed with us tonight. I'm gonna post a thread separately on ideas to break this now. Ugh!!!

[pivot]

Up for feed # 2 here. I have an upset stomach for over 24 hrs. now & it decided to get upset in the middle of this feed. What fresh hell is this ugh

[Deleted]

P has been up way more than usual and I think it's since she's stuffy and can't breathe well. I just woke up DH and he used the nose frida on her and got a ton out, i am hoping that helps and we get a nice stretch now!

[shawnabm1320]

Ahhh newborn squeaky puppy noises 😍

I really need to sleep.

[dancerspose]

Well we got another 4 hour stretch out of Z so we're up now - me pumping and DH feeding her. Last night it took me over an hour to get her down after her MOTN feed. Hopefully that won't happen again.

ellabee what an awesome stretch!

shawnabm1320 congratulations! Can't wait to hear more!

littleredfish I'd be gut punching DH...

pivot oh no hope you feel better!

[loves2shop4shoes]

Yayyyy! Congratulations, shawnabm1320!!!

I'm up for feed/pumping tandem #2. DH is feeding. I'm pumping. We just got DD a Halo sleep sack swaddler. I think she likes it because she's extra sleepy right now. She's dribbling milk down her chin.

We unswaddle to feed Rhyan reswaddle to try to avoid the really sleeping eating/encourage her to be fully awake to eat. Of course, this makes getting her to go down after eating harder....

[shellbell]

Congrats shawnabm1320!

[shellbell]

I'd love for my boobs to get the nighttime memo so I'm not waking up with a wet shirt every night.

My DS has thrown up a couple times since last night. He seems totally fine in between. Idk what this is all about.

[flyinghorses6]

Congrats shawnabm1320 !!!!!!

Baby girl slept 5 hours again. She's a rock star. Currently rocking baby boy in the hopes that we avoid the crying hour.

[ellabee]

Congratulations shawnabm1320!!!

[dancerspose]

Any hopes for a quick feed have been shot. Someone is wide awake and fussing unless walked...best guess is gas.

Congratulations shawnabm1320 !!!
