How does the 3 wk growth spurt work? Is it the whole third week? Or just a few days?
I think we are going through this now. It's been a few days so far. She did better last night though so I'm hoping it'll be over soon!
Someone in my IRL moms group said it lasted 5 days for her. Mine is 3 weeks today and he has been sleepier the last few days which might mean he is gearing up for it, idk. He did some catching up in week 2 though so maybe it will be a bit longer.
I went back for an incision check today. Seeing all the pregnant ladies made me miss my belly just a wee bit. I can't wait to get my IUD in, is that weird? Lol
I am with you. The beauty of an iud is you can't just have the emotional/hormonal moment of let's do this again. You have to plan.

Considering getting an IUD but I heard it has some nasty side effects. Can't chose between just going back on the pill or doing the IUD route.
Talk to your doc. I had one (mirena) for 5 years and had spotting every 3.5 weeks but it was better than BC. My mom was horrified because of the issues with them in the '70s, and I have heard horror stories, but IRL I think I only know one person who got hers removed.
I had the Mirena and loved it. My only side effect was a decreased sex drive. Due to blood clotting history, no pill for me and limited options. This time I'm getting the Paraguard I think (no hormones).
I read all the spam! Yay! First time since LO arrived. Babies are hard. Gonna try to sleep now. Good luck ladies with inside or outside babies! You all rock!

I went to get fitted for a nursing bra today. I rubbed the bellies of every mannequin I passed. I was totally ugly crying while the lady measured me. DH was so sweet by hugging me, but was clear that he doesn't miss me being pregnant.

I didn't have any side effects. After a couple of months, my periods essentially went away with the rare spotting. It was glorious. I did have some issues when I was having it removed, but it was minor. I will be getting one again for sure. The pill doesn't work for me, so the IUD is my only real option that is not a hassle. Definitely discuss it with your doctor.

I'm so frustrated that DH overfed LO until he got sick because he wanted him to go down at about 10 until 2 and all LO wanted was to be held and played with. I know LO gets crazy at around 10, but that's just when our witching hour is. Kid slept for hours in the evening and was good out at dinner with his parents, and DH was gone most of the day when he was awake. And most frustrating of all is that DH thinks me breastfeeding him for a bit at the time makes him go crazy; he does get really excited, but calms down and likes the time. We're all tired, but LO needs some play time.
