Happy anniversary ninergirl52! Enjoy your LO-free time. Maybe even sexy time...? sjp03 tubes might be in lo's future, huh I'm sorry For veggies, my baby likes green beans, broccoli, bell peppers, and spinach. I can't think of what else she's had in addition to sweet potato. Last night she had steak mixed with hummus and could not get enough of it! songbirdsinging55 I can't wait to see the video
I gagged while brushing my teeth and then got sick after I smelled the eggs that I was cooking. I am hoping it is just a coincidence that those things happened in one day but I am a little nervous that I may be pg. I think I will test this weekend. I would be both blessed and stressed. Mostly given my history.
Brushing my teeth was the only time I got sick with Mikey.

Driving by...again. Having to actually work at work again and going nutso at home. No time for anything lately. Missing you guise. xoxo hope everyone is well.
Is anyone else failing at feeding their baby veggies? My dad made a comment the other day about the amount of sugar I am feeding LO and now I am realizing that we feed him a lot of fruit. And when we'd feed him a veggie, it is mixed with fruit (for example, last night was Apple-kale-blackberry purred) or it is a sweeter veggie (such as sweet potato). What vegetables do your LOs prefer? We have had success with peas and green beans. I should make some more...
LO has gotten quite a bit of sweet potatoes, carrots, and zucchini so far. I need to try her with peas and green beans. I make almost all of her purees and haven't figured out great way to make the consistency fine enough. I may just bite the bullet and try her on commercial pouches.
gldnbearz happy babies pouches are literally just the veggies/fruits and it's all organic. I know you want to make everything, and I wanted to too but I really like the easiness that the pouches are and I trust that brand
gldnbearz - I have also been doing everything homemade. The first several foods I fed him were ones that made a very smooth purée. Now I try to give him some slightly lumpy purées.
Add me to the count on one hand for dtd club :-( poor H.
Lo is having a really rough time with me being gone all day and it is gut wrenching and tomorrow is going to be the longest day this week :-( I have blocked my calendar for Friday and am doing nothing but snuggles and playing with lo that day.
Question: How is everyone else's lo doing with responding to their name? Max only does it about 1/3 of the time and I'm getting worried but not sure if I should be.
spikesmom, Liam has selective hearing when it comes to his name. lol. He has 100% recall when my dad calls his name. When I do it? i would say 1/3 of the time is normal. If he is focused on playing, he doesn't want to listen to me. I know he knows I'm calling him, though. I just don't think he cares haha. men.
ninergirl52 I'm still there withya. I need less than half a hand to count pixie523 when reverse psychology doesn't work on LO, just put that energy out there, will it to be so. It too is a very effective strategy. She just *might* STTN tonight!! I got home and baby was ready to go to sleep. I'm still holding her because I don't want to put her down. You made me realize I only changed one diaper today kfaye.
My baby does not respond to her name. I am not surprised because I almost exclusively called her Baby for six months. I think she does respond to that...oops

My miniature man doesn't want baby food or formula from me. He only want to snack so I bought some pedialyte and finally taught him how to use a sippy cup. (He's used a regular cup and does great with it) no more snacks until I get him back on track, his one and only pee diaper scared me today. He's usually peeing all the time!
Lo sometimes responds to her name but I think it's more the inflection in my voice than her recognizing her name. MsNicole06 we call her kens or Kenney all the time instead of her real name..maybe we need to work on that
Add me to the never dtd club...poor H. He will get over it
We went to dinner with my brother and his wife tonight and they told us that she is pregnant! I am so excited, they have been trying for a very long time and our kiddos will be so close in age!
sjp03 we mix purée veg with avocado to help texture and incentivize taste. She'll self feed zucchini sticks and corn on the cob.
zengal every night at bedtime I put it out into the universe when I lay her down. "Mommy loves you, see you in the morning, get good rest". Tonight I'm going to be more specific to the universe! She was up 3 times, first one starting at 10pm. That's NOT morning universe!
Re: name recognition. LO has selective hearing too. I think it's more tone that word.
jjh1119- honestly I have no clue. I suspect a month because of the condom breaking that one time. I haven't had one cycle since having Isaac. I am still nursing but my supply dropped out of nowhere. Also I just got off the phone with my doc and she is ecstatic. She wants me in for blood draw. My history is many losses over almost 6 years of TTC so I was not expecting this at all.
This is exciting, and honestly gives me some hope! Ito took us 8 years and 5 mc's before LO. I'm honestly thrilled for you. Congrats again!!

zengal & spikesmom - Sounds like we're in a pretty elite club Everything I read says BF'ing kills your libido and I can attest that is the case here. DH is a champ about it. We're just so friggin' tired all of the time. But hopefully this will all change soon. A mere blip in the grand scheme of our lives/marriages right? right?
My LO responds to his name most of the time but I wonder if its because his name is long and doesn't sound like anything else? hmmm

Yes exactly! I am pretty sure my libido is in deep hiding at this point :-(
littleapplemom Does your LO experience any gas with broccoli?
He's been ok with the broccoli so far. I roast it with some garlic and toss it with a little parmesean and lemon juice. Just made it last night! Sorry, been MIA.
