So DD is sleeping and DH is out for the night. What to do, what to do.... Option 1: drink wine/watch a movie/paint my nails. Option 2: laundry/make baby food. Option 3: drink wine/pass out.
Aiming for option 1 well aware of the distinct possibility of option 3.

I vote option 3 as long as you don't get hungover there is still Saturday to live it up. And you will have more fun well rested. Then again I will pick sleep any day of the week because I am a bitchy bitch when I don't sleep
I'm trying to figure out if I'm too old to go back to school or not. I got about a semester and a half away from finishing my degree and then a lot of "life" happened and I never went back. If I do go back I'm sure I would be basically starting over since my last class was over 10 years ago. Only issue is that it wouldn't do anything to help my job, now. So if I did go back it would be just to say I have a degree, look for a random new job in a new career field that will take a general degree, or go back for a job specific degree which means probably not many online classes AND figuring out what I would want to major in. I wish I would have been able to do this years ago.

Just finished my first glass! DS only got out of bed twice, both times were quiet and he's stayed down since. Granted, he didn't nap today (first time at home for nap time since we switched to his toddler bed) so he was extra tired, but I'll take it. Hopefully tomorrow's nap goes better (and he stays down until at least 6am tonight).
How many drinks per week can I have while BFing? Kellymom says two but that doesn't seem like enough.
What the hell is that bullshit? How much you can drink is dependent on when you're going to nurse again. I go by 90 min/drink. If I've had a drink, no nursing for the next 90 min. 2 drinks, 3 hours. And so on. Recent stuff I've read has also said if you're ok to drive, you're ok to nurse. My only concern with that is people drive when they're buzzed "because they aren't really drunk" so not sure how that factors in with nursing.

Also, I'm about done with (large) glass #2 for the night. I forsee a third (DD is STTN).

I was counting 90-120 min/drink coupled with sober enough to drive=sober to nurse but I stumbled on something that said 1-2 drinks/week, so I checked Kellymom and that's what "she" said too. I was all nervous that I had 3 in a week.

My friend (who is also a BFing mom and RN) told me if you can't feel it it's okay to nurse. I go by that guidance
Do you think it is from yesterdays bite? That really sucks and I'm sorry.
I'm not sure. He was extra fussy so I'm hoping it's just teething. Maybe that's why he bit me in the first place? We gave him some Advil to see if that helps. Hopefully he will nurse before bed.
That could be. I do hope he nurses and you guys have a good night.
