[allforthegirl]

Congrats Ann-Marie!!!

 

[blessedmomma]

yay anne-marie!

sacha- so glad things are getting better

afm- I think a slight bit of ppd is setting in. the hormones are crashing lol. it doesn't help that im on nifedipine for the vasospasms and already had low blood pressure so its giving me headaches. my muscles are starting to feel achey and weak from lack of sleep. starting some b vits, vit d3, and magnesium. if it gets worse im finding an herbal or homeopathic remedy

 

[allforthegirl]

Melissa I have been trying the B6 as well. So far nothing seems to work as well as the Adalate/nifedipine. I was just dying to take it after my pph, but it too dropped my bp too much where I couldn't even get out of bed. It was horrible. I hope you get some relief soon.

 

[FeistyMom]

Sorry I'm late, but gratz Donna! So glad you had a great homebirth! Hope your recovery goes just as smoothly

and yay for more Claire! The pic is great!

Speaking of pix, lots of cute babies around here Nessa looks so cute!

Woohoo for V day Ann-Marie!

Melissa - I suspect the ppd is hitting me a bit too, or just lack of sleep or whatever, because WOW. I have been struggling to function. I'm doing a *little* better this week in terms of trying to enjoy things and not feel down, but my house is utterly trashed I think DH's capacity for doing housework has finally hit its cap. So... I actually asked my mother for help. I'm kinda proud of myself for asking. We'll see if she shows up - she said she would come by this week, and after not hearing a word, I called last night and she gave me a story about a gall bladder attack (she's never had gall issues before...), and said she might try to come over tomorrow. *shrug* who knows!

Still getting lots of headaches. I have my 6 week doc appt next week, so I have to remember to mention them. Anyone else still having headaches and whatnot?

and now, back to feeding Rose

 

[Whitesoxfan41]

Feisty~ Thanks. . .and I'm still having headaches as well. Not too sure what the deal is but my doc seemed unconcerned. I'm still not in "normal" mode when it comes to cleaning and such either, I'm feeling quite exhausted most days. Ness slept like a champ for a couple days in a row, but is back to every 3 hours tonight.

Melissa~ Sorry you're feeling out of sorts! I hope things work themselves out quickly. Hugs girl!

YAY for V day Ann Marie! I remember that day very well.

My oldest kiddo is here visiting. . .it's been so sweet to see her with baby Ness! Love having her here and can't wait until summer when she's moved back with us for good. Not that she'll live with us forever (LOL) but she will for at least several months while she and Mark sort things for a restaurant opening around the end of the year I'd guess.

Attaching a pic of them. . .love the faces in this one.

 

[allforthegirl]

Mel - That is awesome that you asked for help!! Even if your mom will be a bum and give you grief something is at least something!! Way to go Girl!!

Kellie - I get only one stretch of four hours at night then we go to waking up every two hrs to eat. I was thankful he wasn't sleeping restlessly with gas, cause I can't sleep if he is fussing in his sleep. Every little noise wakes me up. Very cute pic of your girls!! Ness's look on her face is priceless!! Z doesn't smile at anyone other than me and his play gym LOL.

 

[blessedmomma]

mel- your mom sounds just like mine!!! I don't even ask for help from her cuz if I talk to her she has a long list of woes before I can even get a word in. and after hearing all that I would feel guilty to ask lol. the last time I asked her to do anything was when jaxon and nathon were born. I asked her to stay at the hospital with me during labor since DH had all the kids and couldn't stay the whole time. she stayed both times, but just complained about all her ailments and then talked about one of my exes who she still talks to. thanks mom, just what I want to talk about during labor there is a reason he is an ex and I don't talk to him anymore. he was an alcoholic and abusive to me. so when I was pregnant with mason I didn't even ask for her to come up. when it got really close she text me one day to say she couldn't come and be a surrogate dad for my DH. that he would have to 'step up'... seriously!!!! I never asked cuz she made it such a stressful situation with her complaining and telling me all about my ex boyfriend from many years ago. and by no means was she ever a surrogate dad. I only wanted someone there in case I had to have a cesarean. after she was there I regretted even asking. made me so mad. she is ridiculous sometimes

Kelly- loooove that pic hope ness sleeps better!

I took d3, b-50 complex, and magnesium yesterday and almost immediately felt better. can it work that fast??? also Sophia slept so much better last night. she was still up every 2 hrs to eat (which is good since she is still jaundiced) but at least she went right back to sleep immediately after each feed. eliminating the 2+ hour wake sessions makes a huge difference lol

 

[allforthegirl]

Melissa I wonder if you were low on something. Maybe magnesium. I read that can help, I haven't tried it yet, but you are making me wonder if I should try that.

Oh ladies seriously if I asked my mom to help she would come in and throw everything out. That is what she does. She thinks our stuff is just garbage. She has done it before for me, and I missing stuff! So not cool. So I will never ask her to help me do anything other than clean my kitchen…. even if she doesn't clean it the way I want it

 

[ricschick]

woohoo ann-marie for v day!!

sorry your feeling down girls I hope you feel better and are able to get more sleep!!

lovely pic kellie!!
