I hate teething. Hate it. Hate it. Hate it. The big one went down over an hour and a half late last night. Then she was up 3 or 4 times during the night. I don't rrmember. And then she got up this morning about an hour early. At least I didn't take a Benadryl last night like I did the night before.
But the little one slept from 8-6:45. And now he's being all smiley. So I guess it evens out.

DS and I are packing for a weekend women's retreat with my church ladies. We are headed to the Women of Joy conference. I'm really excited but also really nervous. I'm not sure how DS is going to handle all the stimulation and the change in his routine. I finished my gauze wrap this week so hopefully he'll still get some good naps in there. We tested it out while planting our garden last night and I could already tell it was so much cooler than my jersey knit one. It took me a couple of tries to tie it though since it doesn't have the same amount of stretch as my other one. Here's a little pic I want AW of DS and I working the garden
Wow, just leaked all over DD while nursing. I got a shower and threw on a robe to get her down for a nap (change diaper and nurse). Felt something warm and wet on my stomach. Moved robe to see big wet spot on robe and her pant leg.
I haven't leaked like this before with DD. I guess she didn't eat as much overnight as usual? Well, she's sleeping now, so I'll change her pants later. Bad mom confession?

You're fine. I've had DS unlatch before and when I look down, I'm spraying him in the hair, in his eyes, etc.
misshart00 hope your daughter's teeth break through soon and you can both rest easier hollydfromtn love the pic! @aprilrose01 that sounds super frustrating. We're all tired MOTN but that doesn't mean you put forth minimal effort every time. I figure I'm tired but so is LO, and he has less experience with it. Also a clean full baby sleeps longer which is a win for everyone involved.
Last night was DS's first night in the pack n play instead of the newborn attachment. He woke up twice as much but never refused to sleep in it, so I'm counting it a win. I had to change a poopy diaper at his 430 feeding, and when I re swaddled him he got furious, which woke him up a lot, so I had to put him in pjs and spend 45 minutes putting him back to sleep. Fortunately he slept another 2 hours after that. It's frustrating that sometimes he needs swaddling and sometimes he needs not to be swaddled.
Only 3 wake ups last night! I hope this 3 month growth spurt is starting to wind down.
Thanks for the support yesterday. I really don't understand my mom sometimes but I know she can be very pety and childish. But I also know me and the longer she stays away the more damage she is doing to our relationship. Its not something I will likely forgive or forget any time soon.
Uuuuugh a for reals period. I forgot how much these suck.
I'm back to work this week and of course I start mine too. No wonder teenage girls are so bitchy, these cramps kill! Missing my boy, but happy it's Friday. I love teaching high school but man, it's crazy how priorities change when you have one of your own.
Currently listening to the cacophony of banging, stomping, and scraping on my roof. DD is napping just fine in her swing. She's usually pretty awesome with her morning nap so I was pretty sure she'd be fine at this point, it's her afternoon naps I'm worried about...
Good morning. DD was super gassy last night. She didn't wake up but she was suuuper noisy so I was a awake a lot last night. I ended up feeding her in the MOTN hoping that would help it didn't.
My ILs arrive tonight. I am trying to be in a good mood about it but it's hard.
RedGiant welcome to my life lol. I leak so much at night/ early morning I have to take a shower because I feel so gross. DD unlatched once and we both got a shower. It was actually pretty funny.
lilyelayne hopefully pnp sleeping continues to go well and improve quickly. That would be frustrating with the swaddling.
DS slept great in his new, bigger, swaddle sack last night. Only one MOTN wake-up. Yay!
My big girl is out of school today so we are taking it slow this morning. Thinking we'll go to chic-fil-a for lunch later, before heading to a swim play date we have at 2.

DH was at the lsu game last. I got dd down around 9-9:30. Put her to bed. Was in bed myself at like 10. Actually thought... Huh... It's not so bad when he's not here.
Then she woke up at like 10:15. And was WIDE awake no matter what we did until almost 12:30. Not angry. Not fussy. Not hungry. Just got the "hi mama" smiles. She did sleep until I got her this morning at 5 am but mama is tired at work today.
When I told the sitter this morning, she was not expecting that. She said and she barely slept for me yesterday. I expected you to say she slept for like 8-9 hours.
I still think it's a growth spurt. Especially since she wore 3-6 month pjs last night for the first time. But we will see

Sorry for the tough night. I am jealous of your H. We watched the game last night, of course we didn't like the out come, but it was a good game.

I am driving myself crazy trying to find a 0-3 month little boys suit, preferably dark. Does anyone have any ideas for me? It's for a funeral so a cheeky bodysuit won't work. I'm just a little blown away that this is so hard to find
jensoprano82 I found some infant suits at Burlington Coat Factory. I brought DS to a wedding when he was 9 months old and got his outfit there. It was a 9-12 m size, but they did have smaller ones too.
jensoprano82 ah, after rereading your post I see you said body suit. I want to say old navy has solid color stuff w/o sayings/pictures. But Burlington also has a bunch of baby clothes for cheap (4-5 packs of carters onesie for $5 or $10).
xoxolicia thinking of you. I hope you're doing well and feeling well enough to enjoy your beautiful daughter. Keep us posted!
Hello, ladies! We're enjoying lazy day couch snuggles today after a "busy" last couple of days. On Wednesday, I took DD on her first shopping trip to get groceries (she did great) among other errands and then went to a friend's house for a couple of hours. Then yesterday We went to another friend's house to visit with her and her 3-week old son for a few hours before heading to my school for the first time with DD. It was picture day, so I got in the class picture with my first graders, and they were SO excited to meet DD. She really did a great job for being taken everywhere and slept for her longest stretch yet last night.
I have grand plans of going on a walk with DD and the dog and then giving them both baths today, but we'll see. Couch snuggles are definitely winning, but i might be tempted to get up and get a Chick-Fil-A milkshake!

It was a really good game and should be a good series with the games tonight and tomorrow. FIL has baseball and football season tickets so DH goes a lot. (He's not tonight or Saturday as his sister claimed them awhile ago).
Trying to hit the beach tonight if the weather holds.
I have never been so happy that I take G to the gym and that he has trained himself to sleep through barbell drops than I was this morning. We had a huge thundercrack right above us at about 5:30 am that woke both DH and I; G slept right through it. We got about 9:30 or 10 pm to 7 am with sleep for him.
