LO is sleeping from 7 to 6:30 with one wake up a night. I'm getting a lot more sleep but feeling more tired than before?!?
Yesterday I picked up DD1 from school, made dinner and ate and went to the park while managing both kids by myself! I felt like super woman! Lol. I'm clearly working into taking care of my two kids alone very slowly.
Just got back from two month appointment. Baby A is in the 99 and 98 percentile for height and weight. She didn't even flinch when she got the first shot... She settled within minutes and is asleep in her RNP right now. My doc said not to give her the Tylenol unless she needs it. Is it any harm if I give her a preventative dose when she wakes up?
Dang. Big baby. What are those numbers for weight and height?
G was great last night for the sitter! She's a friend from my team and does this for free, but as this is likely to become a regular fixture of oir schedules, we're going to give her a bottle of wine a month.
The saga of the marriage certificate is likely to come to an end soon. The first one we ordered left South Africa last week and ended up in Hamilton...New Zealand. So, we contacted New Zealand Post to get them to forward it here to us instead of sending it back to South Africa. No word on that. However, requested copy number 2 has been both picked up and put in an actual courier today! We'll have one soon!
Also, we are having a new washer delivered tomorrow. Good thing since G has decided that starting the morning with blowouts is the thing to do these past couple of days.
Dd woke up at like 2:30 and would go back to sleep. I have her a bottle, changed her and rocked her nothing. I put her in the swing and maybe we both slept for like 20 mins. I came back to bed around 4:20 to take something for my throbbing head and I just lost it. I was exhausted. DH heard and went to get her. I came to bed after. It's got to be another growth spurt. (She's 3 months Saturday).
I'm so tired. I have had a cough since dd did. I swear it's not getting better be. I really think it is crappy sleep for the last like 2-3 weeks. I just want one morning where I can sleep in.
I'm so sorry. I hope your husband gives you a break this weekend so that you can catch up on your sleep. Hopefully she will sleep better soon. Hugs to you.
Why do I already have a new case of baby fever going on? I want MOAR BABIES. I'm going to turn into a Duggar.
I know what you are feeling. I have 2 kids from a previous marriage and now an infant. All through the pregnancy, I told my husband that this would probably be the only one. We were at Moe's last weekend and I told him that I think I want another one in a few years because I don't want Brady to feel like an only child when the two older kids leave since they are significantly older. My husband told me we would discuss this later when my hormones have leveled out. That is probably a good idea.

Has anyone mentioned there are F15ers on TD that are pregnant?
Holy shit! I would lose my mind if I were already pregnant again! I barely have my shit together and I haven't even gone back to work.
I have lurked over on TD periodically in the MOTN when Brady takes too long nursing. Here are the changes I see that make me want to comment and set them straight:
*Posting US with baby genitals and people actually guess the "gender" *People are encouraging showers for 2nd, 3rd, 8th babies. *Some people have said that it is okay to throw your own baby shower
Those are only the ones I can remember off the top of my head, but it makes me crazy. There have been threads that give horrible advice. It is scary how ignorant some of the posts are and no one is there to actually give good advice. I feel sorry for the people who join now and don't realize how bad it is.
I just saw one mom on TD F15 board that has a 12 week old and is 8 weeks pregnant! I don't have words for that. I would not be anywhere close to mentally ready for that.

I would call MUD, except that lady has been there a while and has actually been really supportive.

25 1/2 inches and 14lbs 13oz.
I went through my baby baby book and found my 2 month stats. I was 24 1/2 and 14lbs 9oz. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree

DHs mom was told to start trying for her 2nd child right away because she might not be able to have more down the line due to some uterus issues (bad endometriosis). His sister and brother are a year apart. I can't imagine being pregnant again right now.
Yes, I have baby fever too and want a third. DH is two and through. We may have a problem in a couple if years...
@holachica no doubt. I would actually talk with clients of new pets about choosing toys wisely and how a stuffed dog toy looks like a kids stuffed animal etc.

Yeah I definitely recognize the SN. Good luck to her. That would be rough on your body, I would imagine!

I already kinda have baby fever for #2 but, not this early!
Obviously, this lady did not follow doctors orders of no intercourse for 6 weeks...

Well......I didn't either. BUT I was smart enough to use condoms the only time we did it before I got BC.
In full disclosure, we did it a few days before my appointment. My doctor even laughed at me when I admitted that we DTD without permission. She said most people don't make it the full six weeks.
Well the crib transition went okay. Bedtime was rough, but the rest of the night went well. I had trouble falling asleep and my DH was googling what age is recommended for moving to their own room on his tablet in bed.
I woke up thinking that maybe it was too soon, then I looked at the weight limit for his bassinet and realized he is probably at or over that weight now, and he kicks the edges when he is in it.
And no way would I want to be pregnant again so soon. My midwife recommended not again for a year since I had a c section. Let things heal.
Thanks all for the sleep wishes. I hope to sleep and get rid of this cough. (part of the problem is that I am scared to really take any over the counter stuff and mess with my milk supply since I only pumping. And I'm on track to only have to pump for like maybe 2 more months to get to a year of breast milk only. 38j boobs are good for something)
God I am feeling like myself again and wouldn't know how to react if I was pregnant again. To again use the FB group I am in online, this was an actual post :
You can't really get pregnant from the pull out method right?
To which many commented -- meet so and so a pull out baby.
Many women are SO uneducated about their bodies. Another asked / said she didn't understand why her doctor was worried about birth control at her 6 week appointment. She hasn't had a period so why worry
@holachica no doubt. I would actually talk with clients of new pets about choosing toys wisely and how a stuffed dog toy looks like a kids stuffed animal etc.
Haha now here we are.
I have a yorkie/poodle mix that we lovingly refer to as "crackhead" because he is so wild and hyper (he is 7 yo and should be calming down). I have been very pleased that he hasn't touched Brady's toys yet. I think it is because all the toys are on Brady's playmat, so he knows his boundaries. I have a feeling this will change when Brady is moving and his toys are scattered everywhere.
It cracks me up that the dog comes to investigate any time Brady starts to cry. He licks Brady on the head and then runs away before I can yell for him to stop.
If anyone still needs to buy some big ticket baby items, Kohls has fiends and family 20% off right now. I think we are going to order another convertible car seat through them because they are great prices.

I truly worry for our kids futures.
THIS. The show I didn't know I was pregnant was on last night and I had to turn it off. How do you not know?! Last nights episode was about these two women that were already pregnant before and didn't know they were pregnant a second time. Geez.

I'm with you... It wouldn't be smart right now for DH and I to have another, not until our relationship gets ironed out.... But I did ask OB when I could TTC again. I'm 39. And we are MFI, so we had to do injects & IUI. She said late fall, early winter we could. Given our infertility issues and my age, she said, "You don't want to wait too long." Baby fever sucks!

After having to wear "regular" shoes over the weekend, I realized my shoes are tighter. I refuse to believe that my feet are now a half size bigger. Anyone else experience this? Do they go back?!!! I'm a shoe whore & have some pretty spendy shoes in my closet, I will die if they are just going to kill my feet now!
