Rainy, dreary day here and Nora was up so much last night. I dropped off DS at school and picked up Dunkin Donuts coffee/muffins for DH and I. We've been bingewatching The Wire and we're just starting season 4 (my favorite season). Gonna be a good day!
We also had a better night! DH actually took B to my parents for a while last night and I had a 2 hour nap, then he came home and we all went to bed around 10:30. Woke up from 4-4:30 to eat and then slept again til 6:15. I'll take it.
Third day being so nauseous I can't stand it and the zofran isn't helping. Woke up just now to diarrhea. Happy birthday to me ?
On the bright side, N only woke up twice MOTN to feed. They were short sessions so I'm worried. Hoping he's just becoming a more efficient eater since we have a better (not perfect by any means) latch now.
Happy Birthday, Birthday Twin! I'm also nauseated and have diarrhea, what's up with that? And today is oopsiedaisies anniversary, I think?
We have a new game at my house: is it baby acne, eczema, contact dermatitis or something else? It doesn't seem to bothering her, whatever it is, but baby girl has red bumps all over her face, neck and ears. Poor thing.
Same here. I think it started as baby acne on her face, and now that has resolved but she has a rash on her face, chest, and arms. Poor thing can't catch a break.

I'm in the positive outlook club also! Slept wonderfully last night, from 10-2 and then again until 6:30. Fed and asleep again until 8 so I actually was able to help the older boys get ready for school without assigning "bouncer duty" lol
Have a ped appointment at 2 to address C's crying issues. Hopefully it's just colic and she'll outgrow it soon.

same here. I went out last night and bought a different baby wash (expensive and organic ugh) but his skin looks less irritated today. We were using Aveeno and I switched to Babyganics.
Hmm, I'm using babyganics now and her skin still looks like hell. Was thinking of switching. But maybe I just need a better mositurizer? I was using Burts bees because that's what I and DS use. Might need sonwthing stronger?

That's why were confused. It was definitely baby acne to start. She still has bumps (some look like white heads) but her skin is also red and rough. I have eczema and so does DS, but his was never this bad, which is why I'm just not sure. Please share anything that works for you!

Burt's Bees made Jack's skin SO much worse. I love how it smells so much, I was really sad to get rid of it all. I had a ton of it from my shower.
Been up since 430 for his last feeding. He took awhile to get back to sleep...then once he did big sis woke up and came into my room and wouldn't go back to sleep. Yay! I'm ready for my nap. That is if I can get both kiddos to sleep at the same time this afternoon.
Twinsies! Except my DD woke up screaming and is still in a crib so she couldn't come stalk me. Still we have been up since. Wah!

Baby girl is 9 pounds! (5 weeks old and was 7lbs at birth, dropped quite a bit then started working her way up again) The doctor's feeling much better about her recent gain since last week.
I'm also having a more positive outlook today. Today is already much better than yesterday! And football kicks off tonight. GO PATS! Though I wonder how much of the game I can stay up for...

E has this. I'm guessing it's a heat rash since she's a mini furnace and almost always sweating if we go out and I wear her. I let her lay naked in a cool room for awhile after I bathed her yesterday and they're fading.
Walked DD2 to 'school' and then walked another 30 minutes. DD3 was surprisingly still sleeping when we got back. I decided to try and brave a shower. She woke up a couple minutes in so I didn't wash my hair, but at least I don't smell like butt and sour milk anymore. Winning?
I'm terrible at tagging but throwing out happy birthdays, a happy anniversary, and wishes for better days today.

Nothing has helped yet. DD1 had eczema so I've been doing the same with DD2- only bathing twice a week with aveeno and coconut oil for moisturizer. But something is bothering her. I didn't think it was the aveeno because we've been using it since birth and the rash just started this weekend. It wash only the second time I used the coconut oil, so maybe it was that? I gave her a bath last night without the oil but it still looks bad today. I may pick up a different body wash this weekend if its still bad. I was also thinking heat rash like kaeguri said.
ETA: I'm just trying to talk myself out of thinking she has measles...damn Google.

I WOKE UP ON MY OWN APARTMENT THIS MORNING!! Oh man, this is so surreal! I was half expecting something to go wrong right up until the moment I signed the lease paper. I feel like such an adult!

Cetaphil makes an eczema wash that works really well
