I forgot to mention this, but they let me sit in the mri room with A this morning. When I went to lay her down on the thing, I was really close to the magnets and I almost lost the Bobby pins and barrettes in my hair. I pin it up in a ballerina bun and it's very secure, but I felt like someone was pulling on it. It was so weird lol.

Hi guys! I am NOT caught up yet, just popping in to say hi. I cooked today, had a doc appointment, and now we're getting the house in shape in case we find a house we want to buy! We're renting a condo right now, it's nice, but not ours. Hope you all have been having a good Monday so far.
I catch up later but... this HR lady who I've been dealing with. I met her today. I'd never seen her in person. She was wearing a flannel shirt with the top half of the back cut out and in its place was lace. Really professional.
Both kids are happy. Dinner of lamb kabobs, kabocha squash and chickpea salad, and cheesy broccoli is on the table for when hubs walks in the door in 5 minutes. It is also 75% cleaned up. Wine is chilled. I have temporarily transformed into a domestic goddess. Alas, I fear this transformation I will be short lived.

Extremely short lived. Broke the wine cork opening the bottle. Half the cork is now in the bottle. Guess we have to finish the whole thing tonight. Oh well ...
On second thought, maybe I am still a domestic goddess.

Holy crap that sounds good!
Told you we should eat together. I might even forgo figs for the meal.

I'm sure ms backless shirt is really knowledgeable about pumping rules. Maybe they print the rules on the part that's missing so she can carry it in her purse.

I texted H and told him that I need him to pick up tmpons on his way home from work in the morning. I gave him a specific description of what kind I want. I even sent him a picture of what the box looks like. Let's hope he gets the right ones.
On my way home from school. DF texts me "I have lost control of the baby. She has derailed." So I've got that to look forward to! At least it made me laugh.
ETA I just got home. She is sitting perfectly happy in his lap... watching Pokémon.
Tl;dr Teagan has hfm and I'm worried about all the kids that came to her 100 day celebration yesterday.
T woke up screaming at 5am Saturday and was fussy all day. She would barely eat, so we called her pedi. She said give her Tylenol, monitor, and if she gets worse or has a temp take her to the pedi urgent care (her office was about to close). We also called SIL (also a pedi). She suspected a sore throat and said she'd bring all her stuff to check T out when she came for T's 100 day celebration.
So, T had a rough night Saturday, but was finally eating Sunday morning, We called everyone we invited and told them she wasn't feeling well and we'd understand if they wanted to stay away (most have kids). Everyone came anyway. SIL did the examine. T has blisters in her mouth and throat and she said it looks like hfm.
Now I'm worried about all the kids that were here. Other than DH and I, the only people that held T were her brothers and sister, MIL, and SIL. We made sure everyone washed their hands after touching her. We told everyone it looked like hfm. I'll just feel so bad if any of those kids get sick
Teagan was doing a little better today and is eating normally. We're giving her Tylenol, but she seems so miserable. Hopefully she'll be better in a day or 2.
Also... I am getting 3 front teeth fixed next Monday! They are the ones that were most noticeably broken in my accident. Then I am getting the other 2 fixed in January & February! I will be able to SMILE. Then I can start working on saving to get the implants I need for the 2 molars I have lost. I'm so excited!!
Have y'all seen the video going around fb of how to put a baby to sleep by running tissue paper over their face? I may or may not have tried that with a Kleenex.
Yep, still bouncing on this damn yoga ball.
my mom taught me that truck a long time ago but instead of tissue I just gently use my fingers. It works really well for me but only if he's already drowsy.
I just read an old (but new to me) Jennifer wiener book. I was hoping it would be a fun silly romantic comedy book but then the main character got pregnant. And it ends happy but it was definitely a bumpy road and very triggery. Now all I want to do is go wake up E so we can cuddle. But I won't. It was just such an unexpected turn in the book

How do you guys start weaning your babies from their middle of the night feed? My baby just ate three ounces... For a kid that has struggled with weight gain, I'm afraid I wouldn't be improving his situation.... But we need our sleep. Also, I'm probably gonna get mastitis again when I start skipping this feed. While husband gave baby the bottle, I pumped 10 ounces. In the morning, I usually pump more or less the same amount. It's crazy. Tomorrow we have our 3 month appointment. I hope dr gives me good news about weight gain.

fingers crossed you get some good numbers! I've been too paranoid about the twins' weight gain to do anything seriously about all the nighttime noms. Soon, though... Soon,..

I would talk to your doctor before doing this especially since there have been weight gain issues.

This isn't what you want to hear but Emma woke for a motn feed until close to a year. I couldn't break her of it and it was the only way she would get the 24oz in a day.

Honestly it's normal for babies to wake to eat at night. I believe it's not recommended til at least 6 months to wean off it unless they do it on their own. My daughter woke up to eat til about a year.
