FFFC: Sleep Deprivation Edition

[zombiesquad]

Anyone up for some FFFC on this April Fools?

[zombiesquad]

I actually like the smell of baby's poop from breastfeeding. Not looking forward to solids.

On that same note, I'm not feeling that bonding experience with breastfeeding. I just want to get in, get out and be done. We'll bond when he's not latched on.

Finally, I have my 6 weeks PP appointment on Monday and H is super excited to get the go ahead for all the sex. I'm not.

Can you tell I had some things to get off my chest?

I'm starting to feel the same way about breastfeeding.

It's pouring rain today. H went to work, so I'm with all 3 kids. We were running late because of the rain, so we were at the end of car line when the tardy bell rang, so I had to take DS1 in the front. I'm supposed to sign him in, but we were seriously a minute late, so I dropped him off and left. No way was I taking all 3 kids inside the school in this rain.

We drove straight to DS2s clinic after dropping off DS1 and have been sitting in the car for half an hour listening to a Pandora toddler station. Too much rain to keep taking kids in and out of the car.

[rachelilly23]

Oh, and baby definitely pooped right after I put her in her car seat, an hour ago. Not enough time to take her out to change her before we left and I'm not waking a sleeping baby. MOTY.

DD3 (1 month today) is growing out of some newborn clothes. MH and I have agreed that this is our LAST kid.
So imagine my shock and surprise when my brain decides to come up with this crazy hormonal idea that we should have another one 16-18 months younger than DD3...
DD1 and DD2 are 17 months apart, then there's almost 3 years between DD2 and DD3, so of course now I'm feeling bad that DD3 won't have a sibling as close in age (this is ridiculous, I know, 3 years is nothing)

I told MH he needs to get a vasectomy asap haha.

Basically, tl;dr, I'm nuts for even thinking of the idea of having another kid.

I don't want anyone else to feed the baby. Part of me hopes she refuses the bottle when we try it (although the rational part of me does not hope this).

Yesterday I handed DS a rice cake chip thing for a snack. He threw a tantrum and threw it in the trash. About 30 seconds later he decided he wanted it and got it out of the trash. I saw what he was doing and let him eat it anyway. To be fair, the trash wasn't gross, mostly cleanish paper plates and napkins from lunch.

Along those same lines... I miss being pregnant. I swore this was our last baby but now I think about having a 4th! Deep down I know that wouldn't be a good idea, but I could probably be convinced. What is it with these pp hormones???

I have my 6 week apt Wednesday and DH has already said multiple times that he can't wait for sexy time. All I want to do when I'm in bed is sleep. I'm so not ready for sex yet.

[kendraj426]

I think April Fools Day pranks are dumb and get really angry at people who play them. Including businesses on the internet. I'm talking to you TCF peeps! Grrrr.

And speaking of peeps - I don't like them (the marshmallow sugar-coated ones). I don't like marshmallows unless they are in s'mores or rice crispy treats.

I've been home alone with baby and toddler all week and my motto has basically been if it doesn't hurt him or cause permanent property damage.. Go for it. Momma is barely functioning at this point so you do you DS1.

I'm pretty sure MH would legit cry if I didn't put out after my 6week pp appointment. He's been so looking forward to sex.

In other news I finally shaved down there. It was like hacking through a jungle. I fear for our drains.

My H wouldn't cry, but he probably would be pretty pissy. He told me last night in a half asleep state that he needs to have sex. We're only 2.5 weeks out, mind you. Use your hand, dude.

I do have to say it's doing wonders for my self confidence. Seeing that my belly button looks like a bomb went off. Pregnancy destroyed it.

I was late picking up DD1 from daycare yesterday because I was getting a pedicure.

[peachesncream]

I feel really good about how I look after having this kid. That is weird for me as I never feel good about my physical appearance.

[songbirdsinging55]

I kind of hope the baby doesn't like MIL holding her. MIL is constantly trying to compete with me when it comes to Isaac.

Also, I ate 3 cookies and cream ice cream sandwhiches today.

[rachelilly23]

There are way too many cookies in my house for me to start dieting.

She is always trying to be Mommy. If that makes sense. I am actually even more nervous with Evie because MIL always wanted a girl but had all boys. She was so dissapointed that she has my dark hair because she somehow thought that she would look just like her...

Ahh!! We do have the same MIl!! She too had boys and we had a girl first. She's insane about C. She tries to take her all time. My child is only 20 months old. She isn't ready to stay the weekend lady back off!! She also throws a fit when she doesn't get all the holidays and acts like she is entitled to her grandchildren. Nope sorry lady!!

She also calls herself mammy. It. Drives. Me. Nuts!! C is trying to say Grammy, not call you mammy. Mammy is another word for mom!! You're not her mom crazy lady!! Back the heck off!!

This reminds me of the show Rattled on TLC. There were 2 grandmas who basically tried to decide what was best for their grandchild. So flipping annoying.

Regarding sex, I don't think H is ready for any sexy time soon, and I'm fine with that. Especially because I plan to get on BCP and we both want to make sure we have no "mishaps".

My FFFC: I let baby sleep with me a few times, I know I shouldn't but I love to cuddle.

The only way dd2 sleeps half the night is with me. I think there's others on this board who do the same!

Most days she naps with me for at least an hour or two. She sleeps better that way, and momma needs her sleep too. I never thought I'd do this, but it has worked out really well so far. I just hope it isn't too hard to break the habit as she gets older.

Ugh one more week to be cleared for sex... I just want sleep, I can imagine taking time out of my sleep schedule for sex.

I could rage about that show for hours. I hate watched it.
