Yesterday B got his vaccines and I was crying he was screaming and my bastard husband was recording?! Wtf? Anyway now he's still feeling off so my boobs are pretty full because he's not eating as much. We monitored him for fever last night and it never got higher than 99.4 so no Tylenol was used. I'm hoping I get some smiles from him today because yesterday we just got whining after and it was heartbreaking.
I've done pretty much nothing for two weeks but eat crap food because I can only get it back home. I lost 5lbs. I don't know how or why, but this scrapple is delicious so I'm going to keep eating it until I go home. The middleswarth chips, too. And my fresh pressed apple cider.
Hubs decided today and tomorrow we need to deep clean and organize the house cause his parents are coming into town. Dude, I've been trying to do this since April but YOU keep messing it up. I am already sweating from cleaning and its only 9 am.
But we are going to beach on Friday and staying over, yea!!!
The cold is winning and I am slowly losing my fight against it. Ugh.
Updated in my thread's original post, too. My poor dog seems much better this morning. She is actually up walking and her head doesn't Bob when she tries to lift it up anymore.
I hear phantom baby crying all the time! When Someone is taking care of him and I go to have a nap, I'm always getting up because I think I hear him screaming... And he's not. So annoying.
I'm going to be an AW because I need reassurance from the other BTDT moms please!
Please tell me I'm not creating irreparable damage in my smallest child. Basically, 5 nights a week I'm on my own for bedtime with a 6 weeker and a 2 yr old. The last step before bed for the toddler is reading stories in our rocking chair. I need to put Delilah in her swing to do this. Well, this is deep into witching hour and, as you can imagine, she isn't happy about it. She screams bloody murder for the 10 or more minutes that it takes me to read three books. I've got it into my head that she's going to become one of those neglected children who don't even bother to cry because they know no one is going to come (I work in child abuse prevention...I know better).
She cries so hard age makes herself gag some nights. I can't juggle her and the toddler and she doesn't like to be worn if we're just sitting.
Really I just need to hear that someone else deals with the same thing.

Can you all say a prayer or send some positive energy to a friend of mine? They have been trying to get pregnant with a second baby for about 1.5 years. She goes in for insemination today and tomorrow.
Current situation and situation basically all last night. J wants to eat a tiny bit every hour and then passes the F out and then w when I go to move him back to his crib he whines and wakes up all wide eyed. Ugh.
Thank God for National Coffee Day. Wife is working from home bc she was on a call for work from 3am-6am w India. Soooo now she's out getting me a PSL bc I'm a basic bitch and I don't care.

It'll be OK. She'll be OK. I get the guilt, I really do. Especially if they stop crying and just have this sad look on their faces. Sometimes you need to do what you need to do and baby just needs to wait.

melohdy she'll be fine. Yesterday I had to let Ethan scream while I left the house for a few minutes to get DS1 on the bus. Ds1 rides a bus with seat belts and the driver isn't allowed to put them on. Sometimes Ethan is asleep and sometimes he's awake and screaming.
abvintage those vaccines are much harder on is than they are on our lo's
Today I plan to take the kids to the gym then maybe the park after. I'll do some cleaning during nap. Not sure about the rest of the day.

Yes, unfortunately I let caden cry when I have to deal with dd. I tell myself its ok, he needs to learn to self sooth anyways. But yea, the bad mom feeling is still there. But we aren't bad moms, crying won't hurt the kiddos.
hiimjamie also a basic bitch. My sister and I are going to Cosmoprof this morning for hair dye and kids chocolate scented shampoo and we already have found the nearest dunkin to hit up for psl's.

She's fine, really. It's hard for me to juggle a 5 year old who can do most things for himself, a 2 year old would be tough. You're doing a great job, no worries!

A did 6 hours last night. But E was back to 3 hrs, so it's not like I actually got to enjoy all that sleep. But still, it's nice to know he's capable of doing it now.
I am so excited to move. I want it to be done and dusted! Roll on December!

I posted about this last night in the Monday thread, C was miserable all evening after her shots yesterday. Her temp peaked at 99.8. She's still a little grumpy today Did B have any funky poops after his? We had one that was like neon green... freaked me out lol She also wouldn't really nurse well after, I ended up having to pump before bed.

AW: T&P for my best friend in the world today. She has been horribly sick her whole life and many many doctors could never diagnose her with anything. Finally after so many years she has a diagnosis. She has Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension. Basically what it is is there is too much cerebrospinal fluid in the skull. She goes in for surgery today to have a shunt placed. She has been so strong through all of this and I am really praying that this will finally finally help her.

Based on what I've seen with A, she should be feeling better within hours. Please tell her A and I are sending prayers and well wishes.

It will be ok. I deal with the constant guilt too between DD and my 4 year old. It's so hard. It's ok to let her cry while you spend time with your oldest. Does she enjoy something like her playmat that you can put her on while your reading?
