Happy Friday Spam!

My friend's water broke just a bit ago. I hope everything goes smoothly!

On a side note, she is one of those expectant first time mom's that is like, oh I helped my mom out with my brother and I babysat, so I know everything already. Any advice I have tried to give her has been brushed aside. But she'll figure out soon enough that nothing can prepare you for this!

PikoPiko I hope he wakes up as much as you want and feels better in the morning. But go with your gut girl. I would rather have the doctor think me silly then miss something serious.

I called the after hour nurse line and they're the ones that told me to go to urgent care or bring him in on Saturday, since I've already called 3x this week. LO went down for a nap at 5pm, but now this "nap" is looking more like a night sleep. He went down at 5pm after my attempt in catching him up on calories - took down 4oz. No night routine or anything. Now it's about 7.30 and he's still down. Normally I just love that he's sleeping peacefully, but tonight I really want him to wake up for at least 3 feeds.

I would take him in for sure at this point to get his ears checked out. GL!

PikoPiko I would definitely take him in. Poor baby piko. I hope he takes in some extra ounces for you tonight.

I can't find DS's crib pacifier. I don't understand where it can be...not like it just got up and walked away!

DS threw his paci out of his crib the other night. When I bent down to get it I found 2 more under his crib. I didn't even notice they were missing, haha.

Date night was fun. I had 2 glasses of cava and ate too much.

DS was awesome, or so they tell me

Actually my mom did say that she brought DS into the living room when he was fussing in his crib. He fell asleep in the swing and she then successfully moved him to the crib. I asked for her secret! (She said it's usually dumb luck, ha)

lilyelayne For the longest time when DS would see me when I got home he'd just kind of look at me like, "oh, hey mom, whatevs." He only fairly recently started to give me a big smile when he sees me.

Also on the one hand "milk beast" is pretty funny, but in the other hand you're so much more than that! I'm thinking based on how you describe it, she means it to be funny, though.

My poor baby finally woke up from this epic nap after 4.5hrs. The temporal thermometer showed he's got a fever at 102F. He felt really warm. He chugged down 5oz of milk and was still making a wet diaper, but definitely not his usual production. Tomorrow can't come soon enough and I prob should get an early night so I can get him to the clinic as soon as they open. We'll be taking yet another raincheck on our anniversary celebration.

I bet that big smile feels good

And yeah, my sister is being ridiculous in a fun & funny way, not in a dismissive of the rest of my parenting kind of way.

T&Ps his night got a little better. Hopefully just a handful more hours til the clinic opens.
