I think I'm gonna classify myself as NTNP :haha: though AF showed up for me. but thats ok cause in reality it'd be good for me not to be pregnant right now. :)

Hi Katie,
Welcome back!

My husband doesnt mind having another baby so we are not using any protection at all. I guess I will also categorize myself as NTNP, although I'd be happy not getting pregnant anytime soon. I think I will go buy another pregnancy test because I feel like throwing up after eating chicken teriyaki...which only happened when I was pregnant with Zachary...plus I feel some pulling (non painful) in my pelvis. I will buy those more expensive pregnancy tests this time.
 
Hi ladies!

I took my husband to the airport this morning. His trip officially begins today! We will be separated for 4 weeks. I dont know how I will be able to survive those 4 weeks. I tried occupying myself, but I still miss him badly. This is our first night being away from each other. Ever since we got married, we have never been away from each other. Gosh, I miss him so much and cant wait for him to get to his destination to call me. I have to wait another 9 hours or so.
 
awww its so hard being seperated :( I remember when my DH went on a trip in dec... those days felt the longest, can't imagine it having to be 4 weeks!! I think I'd be like take me with you! though thats hard now with a LO.

I'm enjoying my vacation, its half over now :(
 
Hi everyone, hope you're all well. Welcome back Katie.

We've just for back from being over in Ireland for a week introducing Darcy to family and friends. She has been an absolute angel, being passed around from one person to the next, sleeping in different places and she was just brilliant on the plane too.
She even did her first giggle! Also, she had a growth spurt while we were away, everything I packed is now a little too small! Need to go shopping, which I don't mind at all!
Christie, how's that baby of yours doing?
 
Susi - Glad you had a fun trip. How much does Darcy weigh now?

I finally put Zachary to sleep. I hope he naps for awhile so I can get something to eat. Zachary and I manage the first night without dh just fine. I was a little lonely but I think it will be better tonight. The first night is usually the hardest. Zachary is also growing out of his 0-3 months clothes, especially his onesie. We are beginning to stack up on 3-6 months clothing now.
 
Domenic is doing good, just trying to get on track with his feedings, as a 10 pound baby seems so much harder to feed then a smaller one, I am starting to feel better after the c section but not up to par
 
Christie - If you can, it would be lovely if we could see an updated pic of Domenic. Glad you are doing better.

I feel like my husband has forgotten all about us. He's busy having fun. The only time he called me was when he got out of the airport. It was just a brief 2 minute call to tell me he got there safely. I am so envious of him. Before he left, he got emotional saying he would miss us, especially Zachary, and that he wouldnt enjoy his trip as much. Well, seems like he is enjoying it now, since he hasnt called, and its currently 12:29 pm over there. Everyone got their vacation this year. My mom's family just went back to our homeland for 3 weeks, after she came back my husband left 3 days afterwards. I asked my husband if he would mind if I went back to our homeland by myself without Zachary, and he said he wouldnt mind but thats not possible since has to work. Why am I always the one to make sacrifices? Anyways, it was just a thought. I would NEVER leave my baby!
 
here is a picture of Domenic from Sunday, he was 9 days old in the picture

Christie - He is so adorable. Look at those cheeks! Is he giving you any difficulty at night?

I started working today. I have an over the phone, at home job so it makes it a lot easier. Zachary is sleeping next door. I am logged on until 12:30 pm (2 hours from now) so hopefully he can sleep close to that time, or at least he can occupy himself and not cry. Its been a good 5 months since I have been off work and the first day back feels a little overwhelming. Gotta do it though since we can use the extra money. Do any of you ladies work? If so have you gone back or plan or going back?
 
he seems to be up more at night then during the day, I had to cut back on how much he eats at once and start feeding him less at a feeding but feed every 2-3 hrs instead of every 4 hrs as he was vomiting to much, so now he only spits up a little
 
My little guy was the same. He was a night owl! Are you breastfeeding him or formula feeding? How much is he eating? My son was 2 months early, but around his due date he ate 3 oz every 3 hours. That was when he would still take the bottle, and I expressed milk for him. Now he would only do breast so its hard to keep track.
 
I was doing both, then just breastfeeding but he was eating every 45 mins and I wasn't sleeping and with 5 kids sleep is a must. I also had really low iron my hemoglobin was 68 and it seemed like every time I nursed him I would turn pale and get really week. So now im just formula feeding and I am feeding him 2.5-3 ozs every 3-4 hours, and he is now 12 days old
