Totally ashamed to admit this, but...the main reason I am so excited for LO to get here is so that I can have 2 days to myself in the hospital with her. I look forward to not dealing with my other 2 kids for a couple of nights. Of course I am excited to meet LO, but really, I just want some time "to myself."
This may or may not be flame worthy, but along the same note hubby and I have enjoyed the hell out of our time at the hospital while induction was late getting started and first round failed to produce a baby. We both read books and took fabulous naps in the rainy weather. I'm not quite sure when we will be ready to go home, as much as I love and miss DS. It's nice to be waited on for a change.

Ugh the hospital drove me nuts when I was there. All the beeping noises, crying babies and nurses coming in every 15 minutes and right when the baby falls asleep to wake the baby up and take babies temp ask how the poops, pee and feeding is going etc. Then if it wasn't the nurses it was accounting, doctors, housekeeping to empty the trash. I was so sleep deprived from all the interruption that I could have kissed the ground of my own home once I got there.

Weak for FFFC, but for lunch I finished off my kids' mac and cheese, and then cut up a pint of strawberries, sugared them, and added an equal volume of whipped cream. Nursing mom diet for the win.
Also, my husband just got hired at IKEA and I am unashamed at my excitement about the employee discount.
I went to the mall to try to find my husband a Father's Day gift. I left with a half pound of Gertrude hawk chocolate peanut butter fudge. The first bite gave me heartburn but I ate the whole thing-mostly telling myself I couldn't bring it in the house because he started a diet 2 weeks ago. Happy Father's Day?

I may or may not have(totally did) freaked out on my cousin who is 6 months pregnant today. She kept complaining about how tired she is, how heavy her belly is, how she can't wait to be done. Bitch I'm 40w 5d pregnant shut the fuck up. I then apologized to her remembering how I felt at that stage too. She said she was putting out a warning to all pregnant women to not complain to me. . I feel like such an ass.

mathistm, I went looking for a FD gift for DH and came home with new earrings for myself. Still not sure what to get him...
pghtruelove, you're totally allowed to be a bitch about that!
wegrowsheep, what is the discount, out of curiosity?? I'd be excited, too!
My FFFC: I'm totally shocked, but my libido has actually returned this week (2 weeks pp). I've been having these sexy dreams and daydreams... My confession is that instead of getting it on with DH (not that we could have sex, but could possibly do other stuff) I took care of myself when I was alone today. He's been neglected and would be so disappointed if he knew!

I probably would have gotten upset too! She was being pretty insensitive!
Oh and I finally have a FFFC...I REALLY don't want my MIL to be invited to my baby shower. She has done nothing for us during this pregnancy even though during SILs pregnancy she paid for their ridiculously expensive stroller and threw them a huge shower. I realize we have a different relationship with them then my BIL and SIL do but what upsets me is that my mom has been absolutely incredible through the whole pregnancy and has helped so much and is hosting the shower and MIL will manage to make the shower about MIL somehow and make it seem like she's done TONS.

I did a 2.30am feed in bed. Tried to do it lying down so i could sleep then i was half awake when i realised he wasnt sucking. I look down and my nipple shield was gone. I hear him making sounds so I'm fumbling around in almost darkness and I thought i made out the shield sticking out of his mouth. So i start pulling it out and i think gee the shield feels funny and he has a firm grip. I wake up a little more and my eyes adjust and i realised i was tugging on his ear ?

Lol! Nursing laying down is still so hard for me. But I keep trying because I want to at least pretend I can still sleep a bit longer...

Z hates to nurse laying down. I'm still trying too for the same reason.

I remember DD didn't nurse laying down until she was at least 1-2 months old. I so can't wait for this baby to get to that point. It's so great to just pull out the boob and drowse while baby does his thing.
