Either I'm still suffering from PP sweats or H opened up the heat vent to our bedroom. As soon as LO is done feeding I'm getting up to check. Sick of always feeling damp.

3littleones oh my gosh! My thoughts exactly. It's so hot in our bedroom right now. I feel like I should be changing our sheets daily bc of how much I'm sweating. It's so gross.
I'm starting to see a trend in LO's sleep pattern. For some reason after the 3:00 feeding he is so restless every night. I'm hoping this is just a phase and will pass quickly but I have a feeling I will never sleep from 3-4 again.
O is kind of snotty but I can never seem to get much out when I try to suction his nose . I have a nose frida thing but never could get that to work very well with my girls.
wahooMOM13 My LO is super stuffy too and we've had great success clearing her out using baby saline spray followed by the nose frida...She usually passes out right after and I can't believe the huge boogers we get out of there!
OMG I'm so irritated ! This f-ing fitbit I got is only syncing to my phone occasionally at best. I may have to return this crap!
We started a little bedtime routine last night. I've had Owen with me 24/7, but last night we laid him in his RnP and stayed downstairs without him for 2 hours. We had the monitor on and he didn't cry..... But it was hard just not having him next to us for that little bit of time.
I went to the gym again yesterday and hit the heavy bags and even did some kicks! I cannot wait to get cleared in two weeks so I can officially get back into class!
A went to the mall a couple days ago because I have both a wedding and baby shower to attend this weekend. I decided to walk around a bit too. I overdid it because I have been majorly sore since. Csections are no joke.
ShuShuBee, you are right! When was yours? I'll be a month on Friday and other than occasional soreness and odd burning and pinching in my abdominal muscles I feel great! It did take a lot out of me though! Feel better!

Anyone have a magical cute for baby hiccups?
Poor DS gets them all the time and they seem to last forever. They don't really seem to bother him but they make it so hard to get him back to sleep after a feeding.
I don't now why, but at 7 weeks old I'm really disappointed in only 2.5 hour stretches max over night. I'm hoping that with his "adjusted" age being 3 weeks this will only last another week or so. Mommy needs some sleep.

We introduced a pacifier last night and L slept from 1030-3, it was amazing. Granted we gave it to him at 9 but he kept spitting it out and crying. Hopefully w can work on this but I'll take last night compared to him being fussy/wanting to nurse for 5 hours straight any day.
I should be trying to go back to sleep. H slept from 11-2:30 last night and went from 8-2:30 between feeding sand he is still asleep at 6:15 from his 2:30 feeding. Please let this be a pattern. Also I think he has reflux what is there to do to help him? He is fussy all the time. I just want a happy baby!
I liked the halftime show and thought Katy Perry did great, but Missy Elliot was the best part.
I'm taking DS1 to the doctor today because he's had a cough for a while, and DH wants to make sure its not bronchitis or something. I hate doctor trips with both kids all by myself.
I may go to the mall afterwards if the boys are holding it together.
We were asleep around midnight and not back up until 5! Yay now if he will just sleep a few more hours after this feeding I'll be good to go! Also, we have annual reviews at work and as an assistant manager I have to do part of my own. It's been really hard for me to answer questions like, what are your career goals for this year? All I can think about is how bad I want to be a sahm but we just can't afford it. I don't know what to tell my boss, I was supposed to have this done already.
Finally seeing a light at the end of this tunnel! Tonight we are checking into the Hospital and I'm not leaving until we have this baby! I'm 41 weeks, 2 days and beyond done. Apparently I have a cervix of steel that refuses to dilate, so going to try Cervadil over night tonight, see where we are tomorrow morning and either induce or c-section. Feeling super anxious but excited to finally meet our little man. Anyone actually go this late in any pregnancies, have trouble dilating and have Cervadil work? The doctor didn't seem convinced it would but is willing to try...
PS. Agreed...Missy put her thang down, flipped it and reversed it and it was def the best part of the show!
Woke up every 2.5 hours to eat last few nights. Shouldn't have gotten excited when slept 5 straight two nights in a row. This mom needs sleep! Hoping get back to longer stretches.

So jealous of all these long stretches of sleep! LO did sleep in his crib after every feed for 2 hours though, so that's an improvement for us. Three weeks today, I can't believe how fast the time has gone! My mom is coming to visit today, so maybe I can nap or get some stuff done... Choices, choices

DH offered to do a night feed because he's awesome and I'm still recovering from the cluster feeding three weeks growth spurt from Monday/Tuesday. He woke up on his own at 2am and asked me if he should feed her. (Why are you waking me up?!) I was right in the middle of a sleep cycle and was totally out of it. I said, "yea, sure". She wasn't due until 3. She was still sleeping. Cue upset baby, frustrated DH, "She keeps falling asleep. I put her back down, and then she cries. I don't know what's wrong." (Um...you woke her up and tried to force her to eat when she was tired.). I was then awake because of the crying and I had to nurse her anyway. Grumble grumble
I'm a milk producing machine. Pumped for 10 mins post am feeding and got over 2 oz per breast...no wonder L has already gained a pound over his birth weight in 2 weeks.
