I don't give my baby a lot of baths. She gets one a week MAYBE 2 if she really has a bad blow out or we are going to visit people.
me too. He gets a bath in Saturday nights so that he's clean for church the next day. He's never had a blowout and doesn't spit up too much so I don't see the point. Unless we're going to visit my parents. Then I make sure he smells clean.
I don't like the way by post baby #2 vagina looks like and based on a self examination I don't like the way it feels. I'm worried that sex isn't going to be enjoyable.
I post more on here while I am at work than when I am at home with nothing to do. (I do read everything, always).
Can you guys tell i'm back at work? I feel like a spamer today
Me too! I'm too lazy to always respond to stuff when I'm on my phone, but with a keyboard I feel like I can respond to everything!
Baby gets a bath almost every night, pretty much just for the routine.
I love the way she smells.
I feel like I slam dunked pregnancy, and I love my PP body. I have hips!!
ETA - I think it's important to be aware of mental health issues, but I hate copied statuses about it on FB. Eff off with your "repost this and raise awareness!"
I know what the rule is but seriously debating waking the baby, going on 2+ hours of napping. Worried she won't sleep tonight!!
ETA took her out of carseat, changed her diaper and she's still sleeping (on my shouder) guess I'll just have to continue my Grey's anatomy reruns until she wakes up

I wake N a lot. I'm attempting a "schedule" and I woke him up to eat at 11:30. It wasn't a full feed because he was sleepy, but I'm going to see how it goes!
misstunes every baby is different, but M sleeps so much better at night when he naps well during the day. Yesterday he took a two hour nap at daycare, woke up to eat, then took an almost 3 hour nap in the morning. He had another afternoon and evening nap and slept for 8 hours last night.
I can't wait until next Tuesday for our practice daycare day. I don't love being home with baby all day every day.
I'm so excited for our first practice day next Wednesday. I don't even like cleaning but I'm stoked to have 8 hours to clean my house, and nap, and whatever I want!

T gets a bath every other day. She was spitting up a lot, but that's gotten better. Now I do it mostly because I want her hair to look nice. You know, and so she'll be clean and whatnot

From my experience, when my kids nap great during the day they sleep well at night.
Re: tummy time - tummy time is good for building strength in the neck & back but also does wonders for helping digestion, poops, and gas.
At 42 i have no reason to look at my vagina. Nope. Nope. Nope. Yay government finally got its nutritional shit straight...give me all the whole fat milk and yogurt. Oh wait i already do, but now i can drink it with smug avant-garde look on my face, oh wait i already do. So we are out of milk and used the half n half in my cereal

At almost 10 weeks DS has had 4 baths. I wipe him down when he's messy. I will eventually start nightly baths when we start a nighttime routine.
Mine: I love driving around with my kids. DD is contained and DS sleeps. When DS needs to eat, DD is still contained so it makes it sooooo much easier than wrangling a toddler while in baby jail.
If DS doesn't fall asleep nursing at night I give it 10-15 mins. If he's still not asleep I wake up my BF and it's his turn to 'try' put him to sleep. I always say I've been trying longer than I actualy have been.
DS2 (and 1) gets a bath every night. Even before #2 started Daycare. It's more for the "routine" aspect of it then anything else. I don't always wash #2's hair with soap, but he loves being in the tub and a little play time, then bottle then bed follow.
+1. It's the routine. Even if B only splashes around for a few minutes.
I can't wait until next Tuesday for our practice daycare day. I don't love being home with baby all day every day.
Had my practice day today. I had two hours to workout and go to Starbucks. It was great. It's going to be a lot worse when I actually have to go to work after I drop him off.
I'm definitely not looking forward to work, or the grind of pumping and cleaning bottles and hustling to make pick up and all that.
I don't think newborns smell like anything special. Maybe my nose doesn't work? Even mine doesn't have a smell.
Same. But now whenever anyone says anything about newborn smell I think about how someone on here said that's basically talking about the way your insides smell and I cringe.
Haha, that was me. Glad I made a lasting impression.

My LO screams in the car 75% of the time. My older two never did that, but this little guy HATES it. I am hoping he grows out of it soon. I feel so bad that there is nothing I can do for him while he screams.

W is refusing bottles post-frenectomy. She used to take them but now says "nope nope nope." Hubs is offended and hurt every time he tries to feed her, despite all of my loving and positive encouragement. Secretly I want her to continue refusing so I can take more PTO from work. Especially because next year Nestlé plans to align our maternity leave with theirs to total SIX MONTHS (not all paid). Since I missed this opportunity, I plan on making it happen anyway.
When people who don't have kids say shit about me giving a paci to N, I want to immediately say "go fuck yourself, you'll see".
Agree with all of that except calling it a paci. For some reason that word irritates the hell out of me.
And it's the word my husband uses. Gahhhhh
It used to annoy me too lol His wubanub came last week and now I've been calling it his puppy... Which annoys me but I still say it for some reason haha
