Mid week randoms!!

[babyw15]

Good morning...lets hear it!

[dashook]

Good morning babyw15!

I'm working from home today because I have an OB appointment at 12:30 down the street from my house. Sometimes I feel like it's hard to get anything accomplished in the office because my phone is constantly ringing or people are stopping by. Looking forward to a quiet day in sweats, with my coffee and my cat, and hopefully getting a ton done!

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!

[ashlantic]

dashook that sounds wonderful! Enjoy that quiet house!
babyw15 good morning! How's lo's rash?

The good news is lo went back to his regular wakeup time. The bad news is he was up for 2.5 hours last night. He'd fall asleep and every.single.time we laid him in his crib he'd wake up and scream. You would think he had a full night of sleep based on his cheerful nature this morning: Hopefully he's feeling better from his shots. He didn't have a fever when he woke up, so fx it stays away. If he's still feeling good this afternoon we're going to head to the zoo.

[dashook]

ashlantic haha seriously, his face is all, "Goooood morning! I'm super-rested, how about you?" Hope he feels good all day today--the zoo sounds fun!

[babyw15]

ashlantic, thanks for asking....I bought A&D ointment on Sunday and have been applying that every diaper change, and I have been changing him every 2 hours no matter what... it looks so much better this morning... it is almost gone.. I took the A&D with him to DC and told the DCP to use this with every change, so I might be returning the un-opened creams I have at home and going with just the A&D...I can't believe how much it has helped...
LO had a low grade temp this AM 100.5, I thought he felt warm last night, I gave him his antibiotics for his ear and some motrin this AM.. I mentioned it to the DCP and she said they had to send one of the babies home yesterday because of temp and vomiting... I hope that is not what he has...but I told her to call me if he doesn't feel good or gets a temp... you wouldn't know he had a temp he was talking away this morning on the way to DC, he drank all his milk, then proceeded to whine so I asked him what was wrong and he showed me his cup and said "milk"...my little man is getting so smart!

babyw15 glad your LO's rash is clearing up! My LO will pop her hand out of the side of the stroller to hand me her sippy & says "all done!" when she's finished. It's cute how she knows I'm there to take it from her
ashlantic glad your little guy is feeling better! Hopefully you can get a good nights sleep tonight. Enjoy the zoo!
dashook I'm working from home tomorrow, since we're getting new screens installed on all of our windows. Sooo looking forward to lounging in sweats with a cozy show on in the background, though I'll be kicking ass on my laptop getting stuff done.

I got to work super early somehow. 8:30. Guess I caught the early train. Starting to question when it will be time to move LO to a new/better DC again... I am 99% sure I want to put her elsewhere around 2 years old. These decisions are so hard.

Luckily it's Bagel Wednesday over here, so am off to grab a bagel. Hope everyone has hot coffee and good things happen to them today!

[BabyStandish]

bkmama0 bagel wednesday? I need that in my life.

[ashlantic]

Well damn. Lo's temp crept back up. No zoo for us today. This round of shots is kicking all our asses.

babyw15 glad his rash is clearing up! Hope he doesn't catch the bug going around DC.
bkmama0 Bagel Wednesday sounds awesome. Bagels were my jam when I was pregnant. Couldn't get enough of them!

[littlelion]

I dragged myself to work. I haven't requested time off because I keep thinking I should save it for appts or when DH gets back. Or for days I really feel sick. Today I'm just tired. And I forgot my pill box so that's put me in a worse mood.

Dh has his visa appt right now. Then he'll fly back to his parents and hopefully receive the paperwork soon after. His dad has finally been given morphine and they are just waiting. Dh is super sad to have had so little time with him after waiting so long. I just want to hug him soon.

[nemomof2]

dashook enjoy your day at home!
babyw15 glad his rash is getting better! LO is getting so many new words lately, it's so fun.
ashlantic sorry shots are causing such rough times at your house. Hope he gets to feeling better.
bkmama0 bagel Wednesday how fun. DC decisions are so hard no matter what.
littlelion so sorry for you and your DH that is tough.

[nemomof2]

AFM I have been pretty busy on the phone trying to get DD into speech therapy and with the shop so have only been able to LT. It's rainy here again today so hopefully I can get some more TCFing done then the last couple of days.

[raven]

Definitely a Starbucks day. DH and I have been sleeping on an air mattress, and we recently purchased a new one off Amazon. It decided to start leaking through the "convenient" built in pump at 1 am. I filled it with air again, hoping it was a one time thing. As soon as I laid down, it let out this screech, and still leaking air. I pushed it aside and slept on the floor. My back hurts and I'm exhausted.
LO has started to take a shine to a specific bear she has been sleeping with. She's had it for a while, but has just recently started carrying it around everywhere. She won't let me pick up her up out of her crib until she has the bear. It's really cute.
Going shopping with my mom at a farm store later. After LO's nap, I'm going to take her to the park. We're finally going to have a couple of really nice days and she should enjoy as much as she can.

[Deleted]

ashlantic I absolutely adore your son's pjs - he is such a cutie
babyw15 Hope your LO makes it through the day okay
bkmama0 DC decisions are tough. I keep wondering if DS would be better in a center instead of a in home DC

[Deleted]

I think DS is teething again but I don't know what comes in next. It's raining here, which is making for a rather dreary work day. On the bright side a coworker just brought me a soft pretzel.

[babyw15]

So I am stressing out.... we close on our new house July 1st... I am trying to make up my June/July schedule at work... it is just me and another provider to cover the shifts...so I am scrambling trying to get others to help so I can take 10 days off to help us move in and get settled before I have to come back to work...sucks that it is over July 4th weekend...so keep your fingers crossed I get help!!

My Boobs are all of a sudden very, very veiny today. So of course now I'm on the crazy train thinking I'm preggers. Gah. TTC is such a mind f*ck. Also, my autocorrect thinks boobs should be capitalized apparently?

[BabyStandish]

I need to eat lunch. All this talk about bagels, pretzels, and Starbucks has me salivating.

Jan 1st (conception) or 2nd (lmp).

I may have tested today, but I think it's just an evap line since it was a blue dye test. Will test again in a couple days.

Thanks! I'm trying not to get my hopes up. BfN on the wondfo this morning and then the faintest line ever on a blue dye. So I went out and got a digital and first response to test again in a couple days. I'm really hoping this is it!

Squeeeeee you have to update us!! I'll be stalking!!!

[ourcrazynavylife]

BabyStandish good luck lady!!

We were going to take a break from TTC the next few months. But after talking with my classmates earlier today (meeting for a group project) I think it's a stupid idea. (I was just trying to time it with school breaks.)
So I guess we'll keep on keeping on. Hopefully next cycle will be it for us.
Expecting AF any minute here.

[nemomof2]

BabyStandish so many thoughts your way! GL!!!

[bkmama0]

GL BabyStandish!

We thought about taking last cycle off because if we were successful it would mean being due within 2-3 weeks of my brother's wedding, which is in NJ (meaning we have to travel to be there).  We decided not to because we really didn't want to miss a chance, and lo and behold, it worked.  I'm not sorry.

I am sorry AF is on her way and I really hope you get your BFP next cycle ((hugs))

LO woke up at 9 am today after his 1 am screamfest. I think his teeth are killing him. He has two more molars coming through. Also, he didn't take one single nap today and I am exhauuuuusted. Oh wait, almost 6 pm and this:


Also our house is nottttttttt even close to ready and we are supposed to move Friday into the construction hell hole. Just asked hubs to check the leasing office and see if we can waste thousands of dollars on staying here another month. Construction plus toddler sounds terrible.

[ourcrazynavylife]

Thank you dashook

I'm trying to not feel like too much of a brat over here.
