And we're back (almost exactly 2 hours later). Tried the side lying position again because I'm super engorged. He took 20.minutes to get latched on all the whole on hysterics. Breaks my heart when I can't do anything but keep trying because he has to empty the bresst or it will just get worse. Hard night again.
Tried to bedshare. A woke up after 30 minutes losing her shit. Tried side lying feeding, she ended up spitting up all over me and the bed. I don't know why she wakes up after 30 minutes screaming her head off, but this is the third time it's happened. Anyone who bedshares have any tips?
E wakes up angry like that bc of gas. Is she kicking her legs or pulling them up?
DSHM13 Week 3 growth spurt or her first leap? My LC told me 3 is a big week on growth and then according to the wonder weeks app the first leap starts around then too.. N was the same and then last week he started the hard core screaming thing but there's no pattern to his like hers.. Hope it ends soon..
Wow had no idea what leaps were...mother of the year here? I'll have to read more about them! Thank you!

Amazing. I let Lexie sleep in our bed and she went from 10-330. I woke up st 3 with rocks that leak. Then my two year old came in to our room too. So now all 4 of us are in bed. Hopefully the 2 year old goes back to sleep fast. I'm tired and don't feel like dealing

Girl, I had no idea until I saw people mention it here! The app and it's "signs" of the leap are spot on so far for Noah.
E has been sleeping since 11. She woke up around 1 screaming about gas so I worked her legs until it was out and she went back to sleep. But since we've been up from 2 until 7 or 8 the last few days, I can't fall back asleep. Ugh.
We're up partying here. B has been awake for over the last hour because I changed his diaper. He's been leaking out of them even after sizing up for night. Yesterday morning it was like he didn't even have a diaper on. I was soaked, the bed was soaked and it meant we were up for the day. Tonight sucked for bedtime with DS1 as well. Kid screamed for almost two hours and I still don't know why. Then all of a sudden he was done and asked to go to his bed. I'm thinking it was because we started the bedtime routine too late. He's normally in bed by 7:15 and we weren't even out of the bath by that time. Lesson learned. Again.
This kid just shit so hard it vibrated my arm. Damn son!
I'm waiting on that. It's been over 24 hours and R keeps faking me out with some impressive farts. I'm pretty sure her next shit is going to shake the house.

That did not seem to be the issue. Though she was kind of flailing all of her limbs.

I could kill MH. G fell asleep on him last night. After a few hours, he started trying to nurse on H's neck, which cracked me up. He immediately got out of bed and put him on my abdomen, on his back. Thanks for fucking me, honey. His first sleep of the night sets the tone for the whole night. So he woke. Often. Chewed on my nips. Kicked at me. Fussed. ALL NIGHT.

I don't bed share so can't help with that, but do you lay her down right after a feed? If so the 30min screaming could be discomfort. We can't do side lying well and need to be upright at least 30min after feed. A big part of that is because we are dealing with reflux but I know it can bother some baby's digestion to be flat.

Have you tried Pampers Baby Dry diapers? They're supposed to be for overnight up to 12 hours. I don't know if I'd go that long, but we've had really good luck w them for nightime. Jake used to leak out of his diaper too.

That's what arrived on my doorstep last night. B is built so much different than DS1 that the target diapers aren't going to work for him.
DSHM13 3 weeks is also when colic and witching hours set in if you're going to have them. My dr said they usually start at 3 weeks and peak around 6-8 weeks. We are just coming out of it now, we've only had a couple witching nights this week and one was after 2 month shots. At 6 weeks we had a week of straight colic, crying all day except when nursing or bouncing on the yoga ball. Buy a yoga ball if you don't have one already, saved my sanity!
No hurricanes here but we are forecasted to get snow this weekend. Ugh. I know it's too early for it to stick but it's only another month until it's here to stay and I'm not ready yet!!
It just snowed 2 feet yesterday at my parents house. This is why I don't live up north! Think we're out of the hurricane's path but there's a flood watch here til Saturday bc of thunderstorms. As long as we don't get 6 inches in one day like we did last month i'm good. So sick of flooded roads everywhere.

Ya I live in Canada, 6 months of snow is normal for us but I still hate it. I could totally move to some Caribbean island and happily pick fruit for the rest of my life but then I'm dealing with hurricanes or floods like you are, yikes. I guess you can't win no matter where you live.

Yeah we get "fall like" 80 degrees over the weekend in Texas. I miss real fall.

Not cool. Hope G slept.
He slept. After screaming at me to get up at 5. Little stink.

She woke up screaming 30 minutes after I'd held her upright for 30 minutes. The side lying was my own dumb fault.

I want side lying to work so badly for us, but every time I do it she has a massive spit up. Maybe when she's a little older and her digestive system has matured a bit.

I know. I feel like if the side lying would work maybe she wouldn't wake up screaming or if she did I could soothe her back to sleep easily. Maybe like you said when she's a little older. On the plus side I got her to go down in her Pack N Play for 3 hours.

The husband has come down with some sort of illness (shivering, fever, etc) and I'm paranoid of him getting Liam sick. I have an appointment tomorrow morning I can't reschedule, so he's going to be watching Liam. I need to remind him to wash his hands like he has OCD. I'm also annoyed because this means that I have to handle the MOTN feedings/changing tonight, and I really wanted to get some sleep.
