And DS is up every 2 hours for the second night in a row. I'm taking him to the doctor and working from home. He's had a low fever that ibuprofen takes care of and been fussy nursing on one side. It seems to be more than teeth, although he's getting 2 or 3 at once.
Because I know everyone cares about the status of my uterus but apparently we are in the nt/np category these days. We use condoms and H has skipped them the last several times. So now this momma, who has yet to have a pp period, is going to be peeing on a lot of sticks I think.

I know I mentioned this on Facebook, but we had to take DS to the children's hospital last night because it was day four of high fever. He was diagnosed with hand, foot, mouth disease (thanks daycare!) and he has ulcers in his mouth making it hard to eat. His fever is down to the 98-99 range today after four days over 100 and he was back to his normal self today. Still won't eat anything other than breast milk, but hopefully tomorrow will be better.
johanna we leave dd in the nursery now. Some days she's good, some days we get paged. We go to the 8:30 service which is mostly elderly people. That means there are usually only 4 or so babies in the infant room, so she has a little more hands on care (because she often cries or screams).
johanna we keep the girls with us and just sit toward the back if we need to take one out. But I've never been to a church that offers babysitting during mass. I'm intrigued!
I know no one cares but I'm sharing anyway: both my fantasy football teams suck this week (it's bad enough that the bears got spanked today). I suck at football.

We do care about your ute. Hopefully it goes the way you want

aggiebug eep! Exciting! kaydee0402 I'm sorry LO had more than just a cold but glad you got some answers. Thankfully milk is calorie dense & easier to digest than solids; he knows what he needs to get over this illness. dreemkin DH had a terrible fantasy football week too. And the Saints lost. Ugh.

Took DS for a walk around the apartment complex to get him back to sleep. Worked after 20 minutes. Brought him back and earned myself 40 minutes of sleep for him to wake up distressed that he was in his crib. He just finished comfort nursing back to sleep. T&Ps he's down for at least 3 hours. Mama is exhausted.
Woke up to a wet baby laying in bed beside me. Somehow the sheets were completely dry, but the side of S' jammies was soaked. I guess we need to size up again for night time. If he wouldn't wake up to eat at least 4 times every night, he wouldn't have so much pee. I DNW to have to go back to changing him MOTN.
Off to church this morning and then H is going to pick up a piano that was being given away on our local FB yardsale page. FX it's in decent shape. DH has been wanting one for a while now.
Xtra protection night time diapers are the best! We use the pampers in a size up from her regular ones and I could kiss the package, it makes me so happy. I hate MOTN diaper changes!

Ugh sorry your nights are still so rough. Hope he stays asleep & you fall asleep quickly.
I got a roll on stretch mark reducing gel. We'll see if it works. I'm embarrassed how bad my stretch marks are and I had some from before I was pregnant. Figure I might as well give it a shot.
Let me know how it does. I don't care so much about the ones on my stomach, but the ones on my thighs bother me.
Morning! Friends are also in Sacramento this weekend, so we're meeting them at a bar to watch the bears and brunch. I'm excited for mimosas!
DS had been pretty much sleeping through the night and then last night was up a bunch. I'm thinking probably teething.
I had no idea you were coming to the Sacramento area. I have been awful at keeping up with Feb 2015 lately with everything that has been going on. You kept saying California and of course I assumed LA, SD or SF.
Sorry it's so dang hot right now! At least the smoke is gone. Hope you enjoy your time while you are here!

I primarily pump these days but, DS is in a nursing mood. He has decided that it is a lot of fun to bite down on my nipple with his two teeth and pulling his head away while latched on. It has not been painful yet...Thank you, DS keep doing this and momma is going to need a boob job even more.

I could just hear DS snoring loudly through the monitor. It was kind of cute, but I went in and readjusted him because I didn't like how his face was straight down on the mattress.
Thanks everyone for the advise on church. I'll try it out in 2 weeks (we are away next weekend) and see how the nursery goes. Regardless, I think she will find the service fairly entertaining as long as the organ doesn't scare her.
badw0lf & jess0402 - I hope your LOs are feeling better and slept okay last night.

Oh gosh seamonster, sorry you had such a rough night! Hope you got at least a little bit of sleep and can get a nap today and that your LO feels better soon!
