And It's Monday.....

[musicfrk2002]

So there is a confirmed case of whooping cough at a nearby high school. And 2 other probable cases at a middle school and elementary school.

I forgot to buy cereal yesterday. May or may not have eaten oreos for breakfast today.

I know somebody asked in a different thread about when to use the uppababy seat instead of the bassinet and of course I can't find it, but here's the insert you can use for a baby under 6m!

Road tripping to my parents house w 2 kids and 2 dogs. My car looks like petco and babies r us puked on each other!!!! Wish me luck!!!

[nchauhan]

I've been in a percoset induced haze all weekend while recovering from wisdom teeth extractions. Dry sockets and popped stitches are no fun. Esp while having a baby that insisted on getting up everto two hours last night! Sleep child!!

Today can just step off. I got up at 5:30 because I had to drive three hours to a 10:00 hearing in a rural county. Got there at 9:30, met with my client, then sat for two and a half hours waiting for it to be called...and snorting out loud at monkey gifs. Well that effed me because I was supposed to be in a county 2.5 hours away at 2:00. No way I could make it on time. So I am now pulled off the highway in the middle of nowhere so I can safely attend my hearings there by phone. And once that's done I still have a two hour drive back home... And it will all be through rush hour traffic now. Andplusalso now I am also not going to make it to my mother's house to have dinner and say goodbye to my brother before he flies back to Florida tonight.

Go to law school, they said. It will be glamorous and make you rich, they said...

I got LO to nap in her crib for like twenty minutes! She only woke up because she rolled herself on her belly. I'm still in awe how I got her transferred out of my arms and into the crib!

[erbear]

@jemomma this has never happened before. I just really had to pee and took a chance!

[bookninja]

Soooo... Three month growth spurt is a thing, right? LO is cranky, hungry, and taking 5 minute naps instead of her usual 20 minutes. I never thought I'd be missing the 20 minute naps... But I really, really am.

[wegrowsheep]

It's 2:30 and I'm enjoying a quiet moment, letting DD watch Alice in Wonderland, DS1 fell asleep next to me, and DS2 is FINALLY EFFING NAPPING. Fist nap longer than 5 minutes since he woke up at 6:30. I didn't brush my teeth or put on a bra til an hour ago.

And now he's stirring.

Nooooooo............

[sugarkissed]

I haven't been around here much lately! DD1 turned 2 last week and her party was yesterday. So many toddlers. So much sugar. So much to clean. It was a fun party though!

Sucky!! I had mine surgically removed last year and ended up pregnant later in the month so I went from recovery to morning sickness, yuck!

Happy birthday to your DD sugarkissed!

[shahoi]

Guise. I've been feeling extremely pukey the past few days. And irritable. To DH especially. Lord please help me... AF better come by Thursday or I seriously will die.

[turtletyme]

shahoi I just heard a record scratch. Fingers crossed for AF....

[shahoi]

turtletyme these feelings are all too similar. But I seriously don't see how it could be possible. We've only had 1 successful experience so far, and 3 failed attempts before that. I started the pill at my 6 week check-up, and we used a condom for 2 of the failed attempts. Even with all of that, I'm freaking out!

I felt crappy last week, and panicked a little. And just looked at the calendar. AF due today, assuming we're on a 28 day cycle. But I'm EBF, so who effing knows. Joining you on the "I will just die" boat.

ETA: No particular reason it would be possible, as barrier precautions have been taken. But still...

[periwinkledaydreams]

shahoi my bloodpressure just went up at the thought... Ive had one pp period already and now all I do is keep my FX for the next one. Like maybe I should just keep my legs crossed Im so paranoid lol!!!

[tatersalad]

My three year old just threw up before he could make it to the toilet. My powder room bath is covered wall to wall in strawberry vomit. Right after my almost 3 month old spit up on me. Woo hoo.

[periwinkledaydreams]

Woah, wegrowsheep, you said 28 days and I said "why don't I just check when my 28 days would be" and its a full week ago. I know shit can be really wonky considering Im EBF here as well. Dang. From what I understand it would be totally normal to get a pp period and then not get one again for awhile, or be oddly spaced for awhile maybe.

Randomly, I seriously wish science would hurry up on some methods for options of male birth control. Wish I wasn't the one who had to either screw up my hormones or get something implanted inside me in order for us to have sex and not have to worry about getting pregnant. Seems they could easily come up with a male pill or semi permanent sperm blocking device! Right??

[shahoi]

wegrowsheep FX that your AF comes soon!! Anxiously awaiting is the worst!!

periwinkledaydreams I've had 1 pp period as well. Sounds like we all need good AF juju sprinkled on us!

tatersalad poor little guy! I hope he feels better soon. So sorry you have a mess on your hands, and a sick kiddo

[tatersalad]

Thanks shahoi. I'm pretty sure he's not sick, just too much jumping up and down on the couch after dad let him eat a pint of strawberries. Fingers crossed because we leave Wed for an overseas vacation...tummy bugs stay away!

Like, condoms?

Lol sorry, just being an ass. I know what you mean

Boo to strawberry puke tatersalad, but yay to overseas vacation!

Fingers crossed for you shahoi! Hopefully just hormones!

[tiffbot]

Add me to the baby can sleep at night but heck no to daytime napping in the crib (or anywhere I'm not) right now. So it goes I guess. The nighttime sleeping is more crib time than DS was doing at this age so I guess she's a little more open to the idea!

Nah, I just finished growing a baby in my uterus, now Im sitting here contemplating getting a bunch of copper wire shoved up into it. Im talking about being able to ask him to contemplate the rough equivalent of that, lol.

Does anyone else have a toddler that moves a crazy amount in their sleep? At home he sleeps in a toddler bed w guard rails but right now we are sleeping in a queen bed and I feel like a soccer goalie w the amount of times I've had to block him from rolling onto the floor. Tomorrow night I def need to push the bed up against a wall
