I've had some too makes me so sad I loved being pregnant

 

[JenzyKY]

I got a book called Darth Vader and Son for a gift last night. It's cute. Made me think of some of you all.

 

[Dragonfly]

no phantom kicks yet but probably later on. I do remember them with the boys. Was only part I liked being pregnant was feeling baby move I dont miss being pregnant though at all. My body feels able to actually move now, I can walk without panting for breath and sweating, I can sleep and there is nothing better than having a big PISS! not a piddle every hour in the night a proper piss build up over the night as you sleep. I cant express how much joy that gives me enough.

I had V's third/fourth degree tongue tie clipped today. Now I'm sad and hope I did the right thing. BFing was getting better but still occassionally uncomfortable. Definitely not painful and tear inducing like last week. I have my doubts now because I don't know if I would have even thought about the frenotomy if I didn't spend so much time on these forums and over researching everything on the anecdotal pit that is the Internet.

I just surgically altered my baby and I feel like a horrible mom.

 

[ZooMa]

Maybe that last line should read: I feel like a hormonal mom.

 

[Barhanita]

Zooma, we snipped Lena' TT when she wasn't even a day old. I think of it as of a great decision: she eventually was able to breastfeed, she will have less speech problems and less likely to get sleep apnea (which runs in DH's family).

 

[bella21]

not sure if they are phantom kicks or my organs moving back into place from section but i definitely feel things moving in there!

 

[CelticNiamh]

Maybe that last line should read: I feel like a hormonal mom.

I think hormonal is more apt if it was that bad it needed to be done and can help with speech and even if breastfeeding is ok it can disrupt weaning on to solids as they sometimes can not move the food aroud the mouth right feel better your a very good mummy

DF you made me laugh!!!

 

[pola17]

Zooma: don't feel bad! I think you did the right thing!

 

[Sooz]

I started getting them today. It's like a muscle twitch, it makes me sad too! With Paige they lasted until I got pregnant again and sometimes I could even feel them externally.

 

[Scottish]

Zooma don't feel bad! Hama got his TT divided last week And I am so glad I got it done as it will prevent any future problems regarding his speech.

Sooz wow that's like been preggers for years haha. Amazing though. But I haven't felt so much as a flutter.

Pmsl dragonfly! So true though it is such a relief to do a proper pee in morning

 

[lolpants]

Whilst I do miss the movements, I have to agree with Df , I do not miss being pregnant at all! The heatwave and going 12 days over was the worst!

I sometimes forget I'm not pregnant anymore, like when I go to lift something heavy and momentarily think that I shouldn't be doing it!?

Zooma! It does seem like a few tt babies in this thread! Just sounds like you've all done what's best for baby?

Photoshoot was awesome! Phoebe loved it and was such a poser. . Wouldn't pose much with Melody though 2 weeks till we see them now!

Lol xx

What is a safe way to remove earwax from a babies ear (DH has always had an issue with excessive earwax)? I can see that Raptor has quite a bit and I won't use a Qtip, any suggestions?

 

[Scottish]

Glad photo shoot went well lolpants! I sometimes think am still pregnant when I bend over then remember am not haha.

Mac not sure my GP said that the only way I should be cleaning ears is by wetting a finger and using it to clean around opening of ear but I have to says I haven't tried it :/

Omg I have been trying to get hama to sleep since 10.30 but he's still fighting it! He keeps nodding of so I put him in his swinging cradle then he springs his eyes open 10 mins later. Right now he is grumping on my chest zzzzz

By the way happy one month to my boy, mason, rowan,mikail and I think that was all that day?

 

[pola17]

Good luck with Hama's sleeping! I've found showering Mikael before his bottle, a great way to Knock him out! works like a charm!

And yes, Mika is one month old tomorrow!
Happy one month, babies!

 

[Scottish]

He's still awake pola it's 1.30am 7th September already here so were at the one month mark before you hehe

I gave him a bath but it doesn't make a difference he is just a wee monkey that's what. He feeding now so hopefully will sleep after but I do think its a growth spurt :/

 

[pola17]

Uh oh! You've got a night owl, Scottish!

Hope you get some rest tonight!

 

[Barhanita]

Scottish, I hope you get some sleep.

Mac, my DH has tons of earwax, so I am dreading that Lena will get it from him. I don't know what to do with it.

I got my hospital bill. Over $50,000!!! I am lucky to have insurance.

We today for the first time. It was good, but hurt afterwards. I wonder if that's normal.

 

[pola17]

Dunno if it's normal, Bar, but I'm curious when my time comes!

What kind of pain did you get?

 

[Barhanita]

kinda similar to what I had after the delivery.
