January Jellybeans 2013!...
- Thread starter Betheney
- Start date
Chloe is having the same thing with settling. She is happy in my arms but I can't seem to keep her down. I have been going back and forth settling her back down in her bassinet without picking her up. I was planning on laying down to nap while she did as my oldest is with grandma and I could use the sleep but it isn't really possible with the way she is up and down. Oh well ... guess I will go fold some laundry. 
If I can't sleep, I will get something done.

Still waiting for my little girlbut ill be 39 weeks tomorrow so still time. Hard to remain patient. I'm just so anxious to see her!
Think we're due on the same day! Hoping to go sooner though!
Jellybeans - Hope you don't have to wait much longer. Are you feeling really uncomfortable now, or just fed up of waiting?
I think I'm feeling both uncomfortable and fed up lol! Really anxious! I'm feeling a lot of pressure on my pelvis the last couple of days. Lost some of my plug today too! So hopefully soon

My mum said she always felt unsettled before going into labour with each of us, so maybe being anxious is a good sign? Hopefully not long for you... and hopefully my labour will come from nowhere... I'll race you!

Lilah - my DH goes back to work tomorrow, he works nights and whilst I've been doing all the feeds it's nice to know he is here if I need him and is a god send during the day for shopping, washing, cleaning etc.
My aim has been to at least get dressed each day regardless of the time. I plan to shower as soon as he gets in from work (8am) and give him time with Archie whilst I get dressed, at least then I am semi set if we need to go out etc.
Archie has gone for his first sleepover at Nanny's house tonight. I had been building to it as knew it would be tonight and slowly got used to it but wasn't prepared for the on set of hysterical tears, I cried 5 times before I even left to take him and then I burst into tears on her doorstep when I left and all the way home. I know he will be absolutely fine there as she is amazing but just feels odd not having him here
Also, his poo's smell really acidic, vinegar like. Anyone have any ideas? He is going 3/4 times a day which I think is normal for formula babies but the smell is so vinegar like. I wonder if it's because we've upped his oz to 4?
Hope you have a relaxing evening & some well earned sleep tonight. Try to enjoy it, Archie will be fine!
Can't advise on the poo I'm afraid!

random question to the ladies that have had their babies did your bumps go rock hard before you went into labour? I'm sitting on my ball atm and my belly is so hard I could probably hit a nail in the wall with it!

My belly gets hard like that when I have a really intense BH contraction and it can last for 3 to 4 minutes. It's crazy

Deedee my DH is the same, he. Never knows when he has a holiday unless I tell him. Before we got married he once made a 2 hour drive it his office only to realize it was a holiday and nobody was there!
My lil boy is growing! Just gave him 4oz in a bottle to see if he'd take the bottle and he had it all and was still crying for the breast. Maybe that's normal but I just didn't expect him to take so much this soon.
Congrats to all the new mommas! Hope the mommas-to-be don't have much longer to wait.
Afm, I'm down to wearing just a liner now, just in case, because the bleeding has just about stopped. Still trying to figure out what we'll do for birth control.

Baby has eaten non stop for 2 hours in between crying fits and I'm going crazy. Bless my dh for taking him and telling me to lay down.
Any one else waited this long for the cord to fall off? He's 16 days and its still there! And it's so gross... I just want it to fall off already!

Agreewith jaime regarding umb cord....ellas fell of day 14 but we were very on top of drying it out w alcohol each diaper change... Taking a q tip and picking it up and cleaning underneath with rubbing alcohol.

Maybe the qtip isn't getting enough alcohol into it? I dunno, here the nurses used cotton balls to clean Cayde's cord and his fell off in 5 days. They used about 3 cotton balls for each cleaning, only used each piece of cotton once to prevent infection I guess and only cleaned it once per day.

Betheny and whoever gave me advice on BF'ing... My nipples wanna thank you for telling me to check his latch to see if that's why it was hurting so much. I fixed the problem and I've never felt better!! Now, if only my vagina would stop flopping around I would almost feel back to normal!
