My spam is that the one sport I don't follow a Chicago team, wins it all (Blackhawks). I feel like I should start watching hockey because I'm so excited that the hawks have done well so many seasons. But if I start watching now will the fire go out??
So I got DD a Jumperoo but after a couple minutes of being in it her legs started turning blue. I feel like the seat seems wide for her so it's cutting into the insides of her thighs... She's also not quite tall enough so that her toes are barely touching which is probably part of the problem. Anyone experience anything similar? Did it get better as your LO got older and bigger?
I put DS in a walker sometimes since he likes sitting up, but since his feet cant touch, I always put a box of some sort or a firm pillow or cushion under him so he can stand up a little. It may help with your DD's legs?

I tried it again with something under her, but it was too high. Then I sort of readjusted the fabric of the seat where it dug into her legs. Her legs got a little darker than normal, but nowhere near blue. So maybe part of the seat was just pinching the wrong way earlier.
Question for you ladies that were doing a dream feed. Have any of you dropped it yet? I fell asleep Sunday and forgot to do it. We had the best night of sleep in awhile. Last night I did it and she woke up an hour later (midnight) and played until I don't know when. I gave up after 2 hours and passed her off to DH. I'm wondering if the dream feed is keeping her up at this point.
I dont do dream feeds with this LO but I did with DD.
All I remember is that you take an oz away and add it to the morning feed and keep doing that until you moved the dream feed oz to other feedings. If it seems to be working just dropping it, you may want to add those oz into other feedings. (I bottle feed so if you BF than disregard that part!)
Also if your dream feed happens too late, it will disrupt LO sleep pattern. My Baby Whisperer book says dream feeds should happen no later than 10:30pm. 11pm at the very very latest. I can search my book a bit more if you want! Cause my response is kind of confusing LOL!
So DD was just screaming at me for the last hour. Walking around didn't help, I couldn't rock her to sleep like I normally do when she's extra fussy, and she wouldn't calm down in her crib or the swing.
I've never heard her cry that hard before, I felt so awful I almost started crying myself. I hoped at one point, because I was at my wits end, that putting her down in her crib and leaving the house to go get the mail and letting her hopefully find her thumb and calm herself down would work. But when I came back she was just crying harder. It was so bad that when I couldn't stand it any longer and got her out of the crib she was doing those awful shuddering breaths you get when you're crying really hard and trying to calm down and breathe.
I couldn't think of anything else to do so I'm feeding her a bottle an hour early. She passed out almost as soon as she started eating (any time she tried to suck on her thumb or a pacifier she'd just cry harder). I can't imagine she was hungry an hour ago, when she'd taken a whole bottle an hour before that.
Ugh, I could go forever without her doing that ever again.

Hugs, mama. Weird growth spurt maybe? Who knows. Hope LO doesn't do a repeat performance.

Poor LO! And poor mama! I hope you get some well deserved rest.
Did you guys see the site-wide wish for no cuss words in thread titles? Do you have any fucks to give? I don't think it would affect F15 that much, we have very little cussing both in titles and threads.
lilyelayne @alyllyra Thanks for the good thoughts, she's doing okay now.
badw0lf I really don't think she does, I think it was my fault. I overstimulated her with the bouncer, then didn't adequately calm her down before trying to put her down, then kept moving her from one place to the other and probably overstimulating her more just because I didn't want to get stuck playing bed for forty five minutes. The mommy guilt is real.
Just tuning in now....my phone has decided to only charge from my car (?) so I wanted to conserve battery at work today. I was going to go to the store, but had some meetings scheduled and was exhausted by the end of the day.
DS's feet are blue. Day care had him made something for Fathers day. Yay, now we will have a present for DH, lol. (Wife of year right here folks)

dacora DS did the same thing last night after being asleep for a couple hours. I ended up nursing him while laying in bed and he fell asleep with us. It's either poop, teething or he was too hot in his room.
