Sorry for all of the crappy sleepers. Don't you hate how you're just figuring something out and then L O decides to change it up?! I guess that's what parenting is all about.

Hey strangers. Day two back at work. I'm currently swamped but want to check in on your ladies. For now I will have to go with the status of a "sometimes poster" but hope to ramp up the frequency in the coming weeks. I obviously have more free time now that I'm back on the job instead of at home taking care of my little one. Hope everyone is doing well.
This week the Serevi guys are in to do some intense rugby training. I had to take G to training last night because DH had a couple of late meetings. I though G would sleep through at least some of it. Nope. I was on the sidelines holding him the whole time.
However, he got to meet Waisale Serevi and I'm going to try to get a picture later this week.
Today, G started trying to roll over from his back. He also stayed awake through most of the gym today, but was so totally chill that it was awesome. He got rewarded with gym people snuggles.

DS is still in the newborn napper. He's getting too long for it, so I know we need to transition soon, but he sleeps so well in it! Glad your transition went well!
Before I crash, anyone else got crazy tip on lifting your babies out of the crib? My back is done in. Chiropractor, here I come.
My advice is to stagger your feet, bend your knees, lean over at the waist (don't hunch over), bring baby to your chest using your arms, then stand upright, using your legs and back together. If the baby is farther away, at arms length, when you lift it pulls your back more.

Appointment went well. We are working on my sleep issue because the pysch. thought that was exacerbating my anxiety issue. We compromised on a milder sleep aid than Ambien. I am also starting to attend a support group twice a month. Hopefully that will be a good outlet.
So for my Teen Mom fans that are caught up on this season, I know I can't be the only one who absolutely wants to punt kick Farrah every time she comes on the screen. That girl is the worst! GRRRR....
Anyone else taking the mini-pill?? I have seriously gotten my "period" 3 times in a month. It ended 2 days ago and then came back again today...this is crazy and so unpredictable which I hate.
Hey there ChickenOnSunday. You're missed around these parts. I hope you're well! Have you heard from dronkeygal in a while? I miss her too.
Dronkey is doing well. We text on occasion. She heads back to work on Monday. Yesterday her daughter (11w?) was released from seeing the specialists concerning the ovarian cysts. The cysts have shrunk to almost nothing.
Funny that I'm on hold with the hospital concerning Addie right now as I'm over here typing. This is about the only chance that I've had to check Proboards. Baby girl has two appointments in morning and my husband is taking her since I'm back at work and used up all my PTO.
I keep wondering when this happens.. And for how long does it go on??
Yes I keep wondering this too. Honestly my hair is so freaking thick I wouldnt mind if some it fell out. I'd trade my nasty ass skin for hair loss in a second. I'm actually going to see my regular stylist tonight for the first time in like a year, I'm excited.
Love tit for getting your hair done.
Bad skin sucks. I have acne and it's been hard to control it during and after pregnancy.

NIP right now and my arm is about to fall asleep. You would think my arms would be used to holding this 14 lb sack of potatoes by now but, obviously not. Guess I need to work out some more.

I remember her telling us about the cysts. I'm glad to hear they've shrunk!
I hope Addie's apps go well tomorrow.
I used up all my PTO time as part off my leave, so I'll need to build it back up.
anchovies I'm right there with you on the acne. I don't have a ton, but the ones I have are massive and funky looking.
Is anyone else having issues with lo not wanting to go to their so? Since easter, every time dh tries to hold dd, she gets furious. I feel sorry for him because he tries so hard to help and would constantly cuddle her prior to going back to work. She's actually like that with most people other than me, but they aren't around her daily so that makes more sense to me.

Had to take LO to the ER on Sat night b/c he was vomiting all of his food after three feeds in a row and I was getting nervous. The Dr. on call told us to take him to the ER, today he saw his regualar pedi and the pedi said he might have a stomach bug but he lost .5 lb He was already a small kid so this upsets me.
The Dr wasnt alarmed so I need to calm down too, I guess mixed with pure exhaustion, I am just overwhelmed...
re: the hair, I noticed with DD that hair started coming out around 3 mo and continued for 3-4 months. Dont worry, its not as bad as it seems

Dd has a cough and a little bit of congestion. Ugh... I'm on edge everytime she coughs. I know it's probably just a little cold or something but it bothers and worries me.
I need to vent. I'm so fucking annoyed with DH right now. He came home late last night and was working until like 3 AM. He got home tonight at 7 and has been working since then. He is loudly talking on a conference call and I'm trying to get DD to sleep. Grrrr.
Basically I feed, change, play, and put to sleep DD day in and day out. I feel like he basically does nothing except give her a hug once a day. I feel like a single parent most days and just want to cry.
Thanks ladies! I had no choice but to move Abby into our room in her RnP instead of her crib. Her room is next to the office and she was just laying there eyes wide open. Now, she is sound asleep next to me.
