[sg0720]

awwww jo she is adorable!

AFM- no answers as to what is causing the pain and no pregnancy either...i hope my period comes soon 18days late cd 51

 

[hello_kitty]

Josephine - Georgia looks stunning!

Ashley - My name is Lily, dont think I've ever posted before.

Zachary is doing much better, less spit up (so far), and just has a congestion. He's currently awake right now and is looking at me. I bet he's gonna start whining any second to get attention. We are having a celebration for him tomorrow, its kinda like a welcome home party that we held off until now. We got him this nice suit to make him look all formal. I have a few pair of shoes for him that I thought would never fit. I tried them on after his diaper change and had the shock of my life. They fit like a glove! Now my baby has something to wear with his suit.

I am kinda pissed at my husband because I always get the blame when something goes wrong with him. He was late for work this morning, despite his alarm going off a few times. He's now accusing me of turning off his alarm. I hate being a wife sometimes...actually being a woman in general. There's days when I get excited about ttc again someday, and times like these where I think "with this guy? Nah."

Ok, there's my vent for the day.

Still no answers sarina? I hope they come soon. It may just be a wait and see deal!
Lilly (lovely name if i may use it) i also feel being a woman sucks sometimes. Its such hard work with little appreciation! Men dont realise how most of the world would be in complete disorganisation if it wasnt for women and all the planning, sorting and organising they do behind the scenes!
If my oh helps out with lo like changing her or feeding her, he feels the need to remind me about it for days after like it was such an amazing thing... For instance I'll ask him to change her and he'll say ' But remember i did do it yesterday...'

The exact same thing with my husband! Sometimes I tell him that he barely helps out with lo, and he would say "but I gave him a bath". Yea, big deal. They only help out 5 minutes of their life and already feel like they just saved the world, look at all the things we're doing!

 

[josephine3]

P.s. I just read back a page lol.
Sarina whats a CT?
Ashley we havent tried finger foods yet but going well on purees!
Patrice glad to hear your move is sorted!

eeeeee Georgia is so cute!! awwwww I bet you can't believe how much shes grown right Jo?


Lily, thats a pretty name! and tell me about it, I'm kinda pissed at my DH at the moment

So on weekends I count on my DH helping out atleast a little bit with Cassidy so that I get a SOMEWHAT break. Its like... hes clueless or something He got her to sit, which shes getting really good at but like you hafta sit down beside her and watch her right, well he sits her down and walks out of the room and I think shes laying down so of course she falls straight back and hes like "Oh she fell" and I'm like what??? and then I'm like if you're gonna sit her down then dont just leave her, and then hes all like "Oh shes fine, babies are made from rubber she'll bounce back" AHHHH!! I was so mad.
And he does NO diaper changes, he acts like warming up a bottle for her is impossible. Like I want him to get to know her and play with her and things, and also give me a break. Oh, then again I went to start planting some seeds in pots, and so I tell him to watch her, she was in her highchair, he starts using this dremmel tool thats like really loud, and shes having a meltdown which he can't hear cause of over the noise, so I come in and shes like shaking shes so scared. Gahhh!! Men!!!

And theres my rant!

 

[hello_kitty]

I swear sometimes I cant even go to the bathroom in peace. The babies are clingy towards us because t they know we are the only ones who can take good care of t them.

Lily, how did your party go?

Jo, Georgia looks adorable!

Last night Darcy slept for 8 hours!!! She did have a whinge at 3:30 but I got her back to sleep by striking her face which she loves!
She had her 8 week jabs on Tuesday, she screamed and screamed but was totally fine straight after and slept most of the day!

How are you all?

 

[AC1987]

awww poor darcy, it always makes me wanna push the doctor away and tell him to stop it cause I hate seeing her in such pain, but I know its for the best. but still so sad

Cassidy gets her 6 month shots on feb 4th.. wow.. 6 months crazy..

That is great Darcy is sleeping well, sounds like shes on Cassidy's schedule when she was her age

 

[boxxey]

I hated the needles with my kids and as they get older it still doesn't get better lol, Im a wee bit sore the past 2 days as this Canadian weather got the best of me and I fell down the stairs outside, baby is ok I was contracting a bit afterwards but it has stopped. I hurt my arm, back and shoulder blade on the right side and have some bruises, but baby and I are ok. I was more concerned about making sure my 3 yr old didn't hit her head as I took her down with me, a little less then 8 weeks to go but I don't think I will be that long. I am off to the Drs today I hope everyone is well.

 

[Blondiejay]

Ashley, 6 months!! Wowee.

Aww Boxxey, sorry to hear about your fall. You make sure you rest up!

Darcy has just slept 4 hours and gone 5 hours for a feed!! It gave me a chance to get the cleaning done.

 

[boxxey]

apt went well baby is ok he is breech again lol but he will flip, im measuring 36 weeks so I go for an ultrasound In the next 2 weeks to see how big he is

 

[Blondiejay]

Glad everything went well. Would bouncing on a ball help?

 

[josephine3]

Sorry to hear about your fall boxxey must have been so scary. Glad u and baby are ok. Iv been worried about falling over with lo in the snow and ice here. Glad its gone now.

Ashley we are fast approaching 6 months here as well its so scary! To think the same amount of time again and they'll be 1! Aarrrgh!

The newborn stage honestly goes so fast, enjoy it while u can ladies! Xx

 

[hello_kitty]

Susi - the party went great! Most of the guests we invited gave us money to help cover the party costs. We ended up covering all the costs plus had an extra $35 lol. Most of them were close friends/family. My husband got annoyed with my mom because she kept nagging us through out the party about not putting Zachary in mittens and bundling him. We had him in a suit for the special occasion and she said the shirt was too thin.

Zachary is sleeping through most of the night too...leaving me super engorged by the time I wake up in the morning. I really wish I could wake up during the night to pump to help keep my supply but I'm too sleepy and lazy. Its been awhile since I pump on schedule.

Susi, I know you just gave birth recently, are you experiencing any pain in the ovary areas? I am having mild pain in my right ovary area and was wondering if any of you ladies experienced that after giving birth, if not, I'm probably going to check with the doctor.

 

[Blondiejay]

Glad the party went well. We are thinking of having a party for Darcy. We aren't going to get her christened so we might just have a welcome party instead.

No I've not has any pain, see your doctor just in case. I forgot to go to my 6 week check up and has it this week at 8 weeks. It hurt me. :0(

How often to your lo's poo? Darcy has gone 2 days without and before that they were a little stodgy. I think she is constipated as she keeps straining. I'm doing the leg exercises to help her.

 

[hello_kitty]

Susi - my baby has gone 3 days without pooing. Today is his 4th day. I expect something by the end of today. It used to be every other day, and then every 2 days and now he's breaking the record. I also saw him strain too and he cries every time he lets out gas. I asked the doctor before and he said that breastfed babies can go up to a week without pooing. When he does poo though its A LOT! It gets on his clothes and I have to take him to the sink to wash his butt just to make sure I got everything.

 

[Blondiejay]

I breastfeed and bottle feed, Darcy's poo's are explosive!! All up her back and in her clothes! Thank god for stain remover!!
She did her biggest one shortly after me writing that message, I heaved the whole way through, how can anything do beautiful and tiny cause that much of a stink!!!
