Hi everyone! Today is awesome! A slept from 11:30-6 and then again from 6:30-9:30 when I woke her up to eat before we left the house. We went to a mommy support group at the hospital which was great. Just being around other moms and talking to someone other than DH was invigorating. Then we picked up A's prescription for her second ultrasound (she has one last week for a hip click and has to go back) and got to ask the nurse about the no poop situation. 12 days. No poop. We have to go buy a rectal thermometer now. Fun times.
AFM, I have to work today and I really really don't want to. It's nice to get out of the house and have some adult interaction, but it's nice wearing sweatpants all day too.
The other dog's owner already paid our bill and we are reporting the incident. I'm still really upset and I will feel better when my dog feels better. Thanks for asking
E has been having diarrhea the last day or so and it's so crazy stinky. And then I was thinking about what I've eaten lately that could have caused it and I realized I made cookies this weekend and ate some of the dough with raw egg in it! Now I'm super nervous that I gave her something and feel horrible!! She's also really clingy and isn't smiling as much as she usually does.
My docs office is closed for the day but I left a voicemail. Do you think I should go to a walk in clinic?
I did a little googling and I don't think you can pass food-borne illness through breast milk. It looks like only if you didn't wash your hands (and the eggs were contaminated) and touched her mouth, toys, your boobs, etc that she could get it. I saw that even if you have the bug yourself, your breast milk antibodies protect the baby.

Baby barely cried when they stuck him but has been super fussy. He is either screaming or sleeping. I tried to give him Tylenol but I think most of it dribbled out of his mouth.
motownthrowdown that's awesome! So happy to hear that! Are you telling your mom or in laws what doctor said about occasional trips? I'm terrified for you of what they might try if they knew.
hiimjamie do you know why your friend chose to go gluten free? I have celiac (I think jgesi does as well) and would never eat the diet if I didn't have to. It is hard for me to eat out so I always try to contact the restaurant before hand. If I can't contact ahead of time I ensure that I have an idea of what I want to eat when the drink order is taken so if the waiter needs to discuss with the chef they can without delaying anyone else's order.
I'm so not in the mood to be at work today. 5:30 can't come quick enough!
She definitely does not have celiac. It's just a choice. She read a book called Wheat Belly and thinks gluten is evil now. I completely understand if you have celiac disease, I have friends who have it. She just decided to stop eating gluten by choice.
First day back and my new boss is talking to me about a different position. In some ways I'm interested but in some ways I'm not sure it aligns with my long-term career goals. I've heard to never say no to opportunity but I'm not sure if I agree. Decisions, decisions.

What position do you have now and what is it they are talking to you about?

Right now I'm a software test engineer. The new position is a data analyst. I'd really like to get back to a position as a consultant but then again long hours and lots of travel with that so maybe my goals have changed some. I just don't want to be too IT. IT is great but it's not my ultimate goal.

My hubby is a software engineer. Does that mean you test stuff that they make looking for bugs?

When I hear data analyst, I think less IT and more consultant, but I guess that's colored by the world I work in which is NOT software (gods be good).
Ask lots of questions to make a well informed decision. You have to go with what you want and what will get you there....ask your boss if this will help you meet your goal or what is the career path. Don't take it if it doesn't fit you. There are other opportunities out there.

XP from breastfeeding thread because I'm a giant AW: A just latched. She's been fussy all day from her shots and her pacifier was too far away...so I whipped out a boob. And she went nuts. Perfect latch. I have no idea if she got anything because I pumped like an hour ago, but I switched boobs just in case. I guess we'll see what this does to my numbers later.
I'm going to go lose my shit on mil and dh. I'm in the shower, and 4yo ds comes bursting in and says "mommy, you better not come, the baby has chocolate on his face" What in the ever loving fuck?! They fed my baby icing. Chocolate icing. My 12 week old. Because I wasn't around to say no. Livid doesn't even begin to describe it since dh had asked 10 minutes prior if he could let him taste ice cream and I said no. Breastmilk is all he needs. Ohh. OH. AND BECAUSE HE IS MILK PROTEIN INTOLERANT, YOU BUNCH OF DOUCHECANOES.
htuzzi324 FUCKING RAGE for you. I was ragey about the vanilla flavoring. Chocolate icing is a whole different ballgame. Kick all the asses
He's like he hardly got any. It doesn't even matter. He's two months old. I flipped my lid. I took the baby and I'm in the bedroom. I just can't believe he would think that was ok. Just wtf.
I was the same way when it came to eating. I think most of my calories came from carbs and dairy. Now it's veggies and healthy proteins. I go through serious amounts of cottage cheese, bell peppers, tomatoes and strawberries. I do the shakeology with it. My doctor okayed the vegan chocolate. I sneak a serving of veggies with fresh spinach. Plus I am saving money by not eating out multiple times a week.
So I read not to take Shakeology while BFing. Mainly because some of the herbs can cause hormonal changes, and it makes baby gassy. Did you experience that with your LO?
I haven't noticed any difference gassiness. DS has always had man sized burps when he does though and has never really had bad gas issues. I took the information to my OB before I ordered it and said he was okay with me doing it. I have only done the vegan chocolate which might be the difference. As for hormonal changes that is the first I have heard of that. I know my boss has been doing shakeology and she has been breadtfeeding too.
So I got a phone call from my mother today while I was working out. I ignored it bc I was in the middle of my workout. She left a voicemail. That's unusual bc we talk all of the time and it's usually just chatter. I got nervous and called back. I come to find out my sister had a second missed miscarriage. She had one last year and now this one. I feel awful for her. She hadn't told our family yet. They were coming to Ohio this weekend and they were going to tell us all. I just want to hug her. She wants another baby so desperately. She already has an amazing two and half year old.
I have a set of discussion questions due Wednesday, history homework due Monday, 10 page corrections essay due next Wednesday & corrections exam next Friday. And I work Thursday-Sunday this week. Help!
