Always on the move, even when he's sleeping. On the left is where I put him down last night. He then kicks and scoots so much in his sleep we wake up to the pic in the right. Anyone else's LO do this?
That's so funny! Mine wiggles a bit but nothing like this!
pghtruelove I had a lot of dizziness issues while pregnant from my sinuses whenever the seasons changed. If it isn't better and if you aren't BFing, try a sudafed.

I just realized that one year ago today, in the very early morning hours, I squinted at a tiny little wonderfo stick and then my heart leapt into my throat as a very faint second line started to appear. I woke up DH and waived it in his face. His response was "We'll see". He was tried and didn't realize that a line is a line is a line, no matter how faint.
Awwww…one year ago today I learned that my baby girl existed.

Have yall heard about the new period Barbie dolls? It comes with stickers that look like pads and panty liners and a calendar to keep track of the dolls cycle.....

I just realized today that I haven't had alcohol in a year. A year from September 19 to be exact. This is sad for me.
I bought LO's costume from Carter's today - 50% off and you can get an extra 25% off, too! Just don't try to use Carter's cash, too, cause you can't. Boo.
Also, ideas on finding a winter hat that will fit her? Carter's 0-9 hat was comically huge on her.
I found a really cute Steelers knit hat at the BRU in the South Hills(they didn't have it at the Cranberry one) but they had other colors and designs too. The hat is 0-6 and fits so much better than carters 0-9.

I'm in sleep regression and nursing all day land again. FU wonder weeks, growth spurt, etc!
I can tell DB must be eating a ton more because I'm pumping early at work today and getting MORE milk than usual...
Last night I woke up super engorged and my shirt was soaked. I had to wake up SO and change the sheets on the bed. It was God awful. I didn't miss that.

I never go to the south hills but I'm bored enough to try there soon. Thanks!

Maybe my kid was just unfazed by teething, but she had an amber necklace and handled every tooth like a champ, until the 2 year molars. I wish that I could find the necklace now!
I am stupidly hosting a baby shower this weekend for one of my dearest friends. Said shower is at my house. Said house is a wreck (for my standards). I started back at work this week and B has been waking up 3+ times a night. I am exhausted by the time I get home, and want to do nothing but spend time with B. I can't get a cleaner to come on such short notice (I've never had our house cleaned by a cleaner, but I got SO excited at the prospect), so I've got to do it on top of all of the food and decor. I feel like this was a very bad decision. Cue insanity.
@kemdupis I sold my husband on a once a week house cleaner by the standards I kept before Dr Quinn Medicine Woman was born. Now that TexasRanger is here I couldn't live without her. I still vacuum every day and get OCD about random mess.

How was you first day/ week back? And I hear you on the exhaustion after work and wanting to hang with LO:( I've been back to work for 2 weeks and I'm basically pushing all chores and house things until the weekend. I'm sure the baby shower will be beautiful!
It's been ok, actually! First morning was really tough- I cried and cried. I got there to pick him up in the afternoon and he had a huge grin as soon as he saw me. The sitter can also make him grin, and it's clear that she is really enjoying him, so that helps a lot. School has been insanely busy (it's homecoming week- which is always insanity around here) and we've got a lot of big events coming up, so I really haven't had a second to sit and be sad. I've been able to keep up with demand in terms of pumping, which I am stoked about!! Just trying to find our groove. B has been sleeping horribly which has been really tough because I am Wiped. Out. Hopefully that improves soon.
The shower will be fine, I just don't want to clean and cook because id rather spend time with B. I will get it done haha I'm just procrastinating.
How are things going for you? It was sweet of you to remember it was my first week back and ask how it has been

Yeah I think we need to do it for my sanity. DH is a SLOB and I am a clean freak. I can't work full time, take care of B, cook AND clean to my OCD, must-smell-like-bleach-or-it's-not-clean standards. Something's gotta give. We have enough expendable income that we can afford it, so I don't see what the issue is.

This girl from my church had a baby a week ago.. We got kind of close while she was pregnant, and pretty much only because we were both pregnant for a while.
She's 19, but she seems so much younger. She keeps posting statuses like "why am I so moody?" and "I'm so lonely"... Her dumb ass friends reply shit like "You should have come out if you're lonely"
Girl had a baby a WEEK AGO. I can see she has no mom friends, no support really. The dad is involved, but young too, and c'mon all of us needed more than our partners for sure.
I stopped by tonight to bring her dinner and say hi. I'm going to try and stop by every couple of days. Wish I could do more because I had SO MUCH help after DB and it barely kept me afloat. I just really feel emotional for her.
