August Beach Bumps - 24 Girls, 27 boys, & 2 team yellow! 39 babies born!!

Mac, no reason to mess with a content baby! He's playing in his own world. :haha:

Henry slept 7 hours last night!! I definitely don't wake a sleeping baby.
 
Angel- I thought it was weird too. But when she was screaming and not sleeping and pooping every 20 minutes at least for 3 hours, something in it doesnt agree with her at all. Its supposed to be all natural. Weird.

I bought these today. Cannot wait to try them. It will save me $144 a year on disposable pads. :)
 
Mac, happy two months! And as long as he is happy there is no reason to come.

Yesterday was horrible! She woke up from a long nap at 6 pm, was fussy. A bath calmed her down and she napped a little between 8 and 9. After that she was crying all the time and refusing to take a breast or a bottle, but she was clearly very hungry. My husband and I were desperate. At 1:30 pm I fed her 1 oz with a syringe, and then rocked for 40 mins despite extreme back pain. She slept for 3 hours! Ate at 5, then slept 2 more hour. After that my husband held her for 4 hours, as she would only sleep when held. Now he is at work and the baby is still asleep (noon) on me. I will just hold her until she is done sleeping...

My DH and I this morning:
me: I hope that tonight she is going to be perfect
DH: she is always perfect
me: ok, I hope her behavior is perfect tonight, she was a monster!
DH: a perfect monster.
 
Bar thats so cute, hope she feels better tonight for you:hugs:

Mac if he is not crying I would leave him :flower:

JenzyKY :happydance: send my baby some of that seep please :thumbup:


well Ryan blood work showed his Bilirubin is 90 so thats good :thumbup: they must of done a full check of his blood work as one result came back low, Ryan has a cold caught from the other little ones so Doctor said that explained it :shrug: but the poor little guy so blocked up worse at night though, he got sick and it was mucus from his nose! he is not in bad form with it FX it wont get any worse
 
Bar that sounds so exhausting! I wonder why she wouldn't eat? I would ask the Dr :)

Mac happy two months to raptor :happydance: Isabela also wakes up and chills in her crib looking at the letters on her wall and she hangs out without crying so I don't go get her and get a little more sleep! Not bad at all!

HH beautiful pictures!! :)
 
Currently wearing cabbage on my left breast to 'try it out'.. for some reason I want some meat stuffed cabbage rolls now :haha:
 
I am well on how everyone is so I hope you are all well.

I need some advice. I finally got Cyrus' tongue tie diagnosed but I'm not sure if I should get it clipped. The LC recommended we don't because it won't help that much since he's already 2.5 months old and it's a bigger procedure since it's a posterior tongue tie so it'll need to be done with lasers. He's not breastfeeding at all but can bottle feed. I'm trying to get an appointment with my pediatrician to get his opinion. Any suggestions? I'm leaving towards getting the clip.

if he is feeding well and it is not a very bad one as in it wont effect weaning on to solids or effect speech I would leave it a lone!

This page is brill and the ladies on here would know better than me if you want to ask https://www.facebook.com/groups/breastfeedingwithtonguetie/
 
I was told that TT affects speech and sleep as well as breastfeeding. We were happy to do it, because everyone in DH's family suffers from sleep apnea when they are older, so hopefully this will help her. But Lena's TT was severe.
 
She said she's not sure if it'll affect him but it's definitely stopping him from breastfeeding and I really want to stop pumping. I'll check out the link celtic.

Also, he spits up a lot still even though he doesn't have much reflux anymore so I'm thinking that he's having trouble bottle feeding and getting too much air. The LC said he had a very uncoordinated suck. Any idea how we can tell if the spitting up is being caused by the tongue tie?

This is so frustrating, I wish it had been diagnosed months ago...
 
One of the LCs I was said that Lena had uncoordinated suck. And she said it is from the habits of sucking with a TT in the womb. They recommend craniosacral therapy for that here, but I am not sure I am into that kind of stuff. And I am sorry they didn't diagnose sooner. The very first doctor who saw Lena said that there was no TT. But after talking to the hospital LC we consulted the other doctor - she thought that TT was horrible.
 
Thanks bar, I'll look into craniosacral therapy. I know that posterior tongue ties are hard to diagnose but one of the dozens of people who have treated him could have noticed it...
 
People I know claim really great results with c/s therapy. As long as the doctor is good. But since there is not much research on it, I am a bit skeptical...

I have a question, is anyone trying probiotics? There is actual evidence that L.reuteri reduces colic in a week. I am just wondering if anyone tried it.

Bar I have heard good things about probiotics for babies. I heard Flora Baby is good, I am going to buy some and try it out since Jaylie is really gassy
 
3 weeks and still lightly bleeding. When does it end? I ended up getting a bad case of pad rash I guess you would call it the other day, used lite tampons one day and went back to thin panti liners. Thank God the rash stopped burning. This fricken sucks I do not remember it being this long with my last pregnancy.
 
bar- theres L. reuteri probiotic in the formula i switched to about 2 weeks ago. don't know if its helping or not but chase didn't cry at all tonight and last night only for an hour? not complaining AT ALL of course, but maybe its starting to work?

henderson I'm still bleeding too. just when i think its over it picks back up again. I'm starting to get really itchy from the pads too maybe i should switch to thinner ones
 
Do probiotics help with tooting also? If so I may talk to the ped on Monday about it. Raptor is stinky sometimes.
