dacora that same type of thing is how I found out about my retained placenta-just started passing huge clots. It's probably not that but might be something to think about..
I dropped my phone in a puddle last night and it stopped working but after a night in rice its back in business! This 3 month growth spurt needs to end I miss STTN and having a happy baby

We are having our first successful crib nap! Hes been sleeping in there at night but I was still doing the swing or rnp for naps but he was waking up more. Now hes soundly snoozing in his crib. Silly mom.
I put DD on her tummy on the bathroom floor this morning and she rolled over to her back. I was totally surprised, it just felt crazy early to me (she's 10 weeks). I'm sure it was a fluke, but it was kinda cool to see Made my day!
dacora I hope the bleeding stops and there are no trips to the ER!
LO decided he wanted to be all happy and smiling during the MOTN nursing last night. I don't know if it is growth spurt, sleep regression or just him still getting used to the crib, but his sleep is all over the place lately.

How is the crib transition going? I know the first few nights were rough for you

@alyllyra congrats!!! Remember to write it down in the baby book! How awesome! @ellteejay, congrats to you too! Laughing is the best! It makes up for all the sleeplessness and hushing
Thinking of all the ladies heading back to work this week! dacora, that's scary stuff! I hope the bleeding stops ASAP. badw0lf, T's and P's for your family. I'm so sorry.
LO did great on our trip--he slept the entire flight there and back. Thank you again to the ladies who gave me travel advice; we ended up gate-checking the stroller/car seat and didn't have any problems at all.
My sister's wedding was amazing. She looked gorgeous and happy and I am so happy for her. I was her Matron of Honor (ugh, "matron" ha) and it was so wonderful to be able to love on her and her new H in my speech. The day reminded me of my wedding (almost one year ago!) and I'm glad for that since it feels like my and H's relationship has been strained for the past, oh I don't know, 3 months or so. LO also started sleeping through the night as soon as we got there-- now my family thinks I am spoiled with an amazing baby (which I am). LO met his great-grandmas and we got some good pictures.
Spam: don't really have anything that exciting. It's lab week observed (it was delayed because we were inspected the official lab week) but working PT, I'm missing the pathology sponsored lunch. That sucks bc it's the only "thanks" we get for the year. It is also hospital week though and my hospital does a big picnic lunch and I'll be there that day!!
Okay, I don't know if the medicine worked really fast or it slowed on it's own, but my bleeding is like 100 times more manageable. I'm feeling much better already after a rough/scary morning. Thanks everyone for your thoughts, your comments made me feel a lot better.

dacora, glad you're doing better! I was just popping in to see if you had an update.
I just met with my boss, and met with HR this morning- I already set up my schedule to work from home on Fridays, but I'm going to drop a day at work. I'm not sure what the daycare effect will be- we may still have to pay for the day since we signed up as full time- but I feel like it would be a little easier to only work 4 days a week. I hope this doesn't impact my career.
Today we went back to the doctor for a weight check on dd. We had gone in last week for suspected silent reflux. we started on meds that day because she had only gained 3 ounces in 3 weeks. She finally put some weight on over the past week (5 oz), but she only took 2 oz during her weighed feed (same as last week). Next step is to the lc to see if we can get her back on track eating.

Hhhhmmm, ours' policy is a calendar month's notice and then you can change the days. Good that you got to change your working days, I can imagine 4 is a lot better than 5. What kind of impact do you think it could have? Not getting your work done or the opinions of people and possibility for promotion? Or something else? I hope your work has caught up with the times and you don't have any arses slowing you down. In any case you've done right for you. The rest can be figured out later!
DS decided sometime last week he would only sleep on me & for no longer than 30 minutes at a time. I figured it was just a clingy phase & I'd wear him and ride it out, but I know he's happier with longer naps, so I decided he needs a nap routine. He responds so well to bedtime routine. I feel like I'm doing nap boot camp today because it's so different than what I've been doing. But we're approaching 2 hours for this nap!!

Took dd to the chiro today. Poor girl was all out of whack!
4 ribs out of place, right hip was off as was her right shoulder, and she had some misaligned vertebrae in her neck. No wonder she screamed all the time! I wish I would have taken her sooner.

Today has turned into a freaking shitstorm. I had my doctor's appointment and Brady stayed home with DH. I then had a meeting at my son's school followed by DD's gymnastics and picking up my son from a study session at 8:30. Brady is in full meltdown mode because he didn't et a good afternoon nap. DH is at a meeting for his Australia trip he takes students on every 2 years, so I'm left to deal with this on my own. And the final straw that sent me over the edge was when we stopped by the house to grab something before gymnastics and I saw DH left a half-full bottle out to spoil! Does he realize that BM is like gold? You just don't let that shit go to waste!
Sorry for the vent but I'm tired and my anxiety is through the roof right now.
Have to start going to PT twice a week, doc thinks I got carpal tunnel syndrome from lifting my 16 lbs Chubster. Now waiting for DH to get home to figure out what days he can work from home to free me up.

What?! That's pretty crazy. How did that happen?
Likely from her speedy delivery (crowning to fully out in less than 2 minutes - 18 minutes from getting to the hospital). She was born so fast her joints were traumatized.

It is going better than those first few days, thanks. Our bedtime routine is a little longer now and the MOTN wake-ups take longer to get him back down, but he is once again sleeping for a long stretch once he falls asleep, usually around 5 hours.
3 am pity party over here. So much for good sleeping. My LO woke up at 2:20 because he got out of his swaddle. It was his 2nd wake up already and he was just thrilled with life, happy as a clam. We've now been awake for over an hour and I'm about ready to lose it. He's been asleep a few times and wakes up 3-5 minutes after I lay him down. Squirming all over the place and no chance of putting himself back to sleep. Meanwhile my H tells me I need to relax and then rolls over and goes back to sleep. Just do us both a favor and shut up.
Squirmy kid here also. He now breaks out of his swaddle several times a night, kicking around and making a whole bunch of noise while he sucks on his thumb for fun. He needs his pacifier after a while but every time I put it into his !mouth, he'd decide that he wants his thumb there also and knocks the pacifier out. Quit being so active at night and go the f back to sleep, kiddo!
