The weekend was... Interesting. And then a tough night for C so I am le tired.
dreemkin how's PT going? Also when you took away the pacifiers did you replace with anything? Prepare them in any way? I am thinking we need to take them from C soon which I am dreading. I was thinking just at night would be fine but he goes and gets them out of his crib.
Nothing planned today unless we get DH’s family together to announce baby#2. I’m going to DH’s Office at some point to get an adjustment because wow I need it. Also definitely need to start back at the yoga studio

How are you feeling otherwise? Any first tri symptoms?
Not yet. I’ve had a couple sleepy afternoons but nothing consistent. I’m 5w1d so still pretty early. This time last pregnancy I didn’t know I was pregnant.
lilyelayne hope it works out to tell your parents! aggiebug n never took to pacifiers so she didn't care. A liked them but we made sure we were quick to take them away since we didn't want a dependence. Pacifiers are one of my things. Anyway, we told her they had to stay in the crib. And then eventually we just took them away, one by one while letting her have a simple, safe stuffie instead. I think that's when her love of the taggies dog "ruff ruff" began. We were lucky that both were pretty easy to ween.
So far today has been trying. N is getting over her cough but A is right in the thick of it now and is a mess. She was crying and fighting because I put a pull up on her and she wanted undies. I just dont trust her with undies in the car. She has worse congestion than N did and her little chest is audible when she breathes. She has a nasty cough too. I cancelled flu shots for tomorrow. So no shopping will be done today; we'll just have to make due with what we have here. Who knows how potty training will go today. I'm gonna try to keep with it. My parents are gonna come sit with A while I pick up N from totschool.
Edited to add: well she pooped in her undies just now 😣

WFH today, and tonight I'm going to a water aerobics class with my sister and mom. I've got a roast in the crock pot, I think we'll have acorn squash with it.
kartish thanks! Sounds like a great day for you! We will be there for dinner 😉
Thanks in general for all the support with potty training. It's such a B! And on top of it all, over the weekend, H's sister (no kids) likened it to her dog being trained...wtf. A dog is not a smart, strong willed, little person. PS: she criticized our method...um. you don't have kids...

dreemkin yeah S never took a pacifier after 3 months and C looooooves his. I have pretty much kept them to the crib and the car but he steals them from his crib! We might have to go cold turkey which scares me, he isn't the best sleeper as it is.

Good luck with PT dreemkin! Sounds like she's making good progress. DS is going at school and gets through daycare without accidents, but they still have to tell him to go as he won't go without prompting. And he's only starting to be willing to sit (not go) on the potty at home.
I'm sick and DS is sick. I need a day at home, but half of the team is out. We had my sister and her girls over to grill yesterday.
aggiebug A was a major pacifier lover. how old is C now? we restricted it to nights only around 18 months? me memory is bad. we had a single pacifier we clipped to the arm of her sleep sack (i know, i know, choking hazard, but she knew how to unclip it and it was a pretty short string), so she couldn't take it out of her crib. she did pretty well with that. the next step was unclipping it from the sleep sack for night time (thinking if it was harder to find at night she'd just give up), and she totally surprised me by saying she didn't want it at all if it couldn't be clipped on. (not in those words, of course.) she would occasionally get upset and ask for one, suck on it for a minute, and then give it back, but it really was fine.
dreemkin i've heard putting undies on first and then a pull up on the outside works well for car trips/out and about. that way they still feel wetness and get to pick undies, but there's no huge mess if there's an accident. sorry it's so hard. i'm totally dreading it.
