How do you feel? Not too bad. I'm disappointed with my final placement for school but I can't do anything about it.
Any Milestones this week? He's getting better at sitting up on his own. Some days he can do it for 10+ min, some days it's 10 seconds.

Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 18 months on thurs
How do you feel? good, tired, the usual
Any Milestones this week? nothing to report, she has her check up Thurs so we will see if she gained weight or grew since her 15 month check up
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Rant: DD is currently climbing all over me and cranky bc she only took one nap at daycare!!!
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? Will be 3 weeks on Thursday
How do you feel? Tired. My c-section incision is sore feeling
Any Milestones this week? Still tons of random smiles. He is starting to get crankier about feeding, I think he's about to hit his 3 week growth spurt.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? He is getting so big so fast! He is still in newborn sizes but they are getting smaller and the 3 month clothes are starting to fit. Pic of him dressed as baby batman.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 16 weeks
How do you feel? Slowly feeling better. So got a cough and congestion
Any Milestones this week? She is starting to lift herself to sitting if you lay her back on an incline (boppy, pillow, etc)
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Just glad we survived the flu without too much issues
My main reason for wanting to temp was because D was getting really bummed about me not getting pregnant as quickly as he thought. When I told him I could start temping he didn't seem too eager for me to start, but he didn't discourage either. So I think i will start next cycle, although I am still hopeful that I won't need to.
@islandmonkey8 I am so happy you graduated! I have been praying for you daily.
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 5 months on Thursday. Where has the time gone.
How do you feel? I have a cold. I thought I was really sick Friday, symptoms came on quickly. I made H leave work early because I couldn't rest and take care of O. I went to urgent care. I had flu like symptoms, so they swabbed me. It came back negative. I have a cold. I felt like an idiot for going to the doctor for a cold. My ear and throat hurt, I was congested, had body aches and chills. I thought I was really sick. I suppose I'm just a baby.
Any Milestones this week? Turning 5 months old. She's refining so many skills. Talking a ton. If you put her on her back, she immediately rolls to her front. She tries to use the computer. She hates socks, especially on her left foot. We keep score now on how many times a day she removes her sock. H was playing with her on Sunday and out of no where she took off her sock and put it in her mouth.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Our 5 month check up is on Monday, I can't wait to see how much O has grown. She is still in 0-3 clothes, but I am bored of them. We took off all the tags on her 306 month stuff, it just needs to be washed. I was so excited for so many of those outfits.
I was supposed to go for a follow up, I'm assuming an annual, with my OB/GYN in December. I called to schedule an appointment and he retired. I am so mad. He had a solo practice. At my last prenatal appointment, we got there early, he usually wasn't in yet. He was in with a group of people and his wife was there. She was never there that early. As the group of people left the office, one said to the wife, "Enjoy your new life." I told H he was retiring and H was like what can you do. When I went for my 6 week post partum appointment, there were signs up that he merged with another practice. The receptionist was telling me it takes pressure off of him because he has back up and he'll make more money because they get paid like nothing through insurance anymore. I went in October for a letter to extend my leave and no one said anything. Apparently he retired at the end of October. I'm annoyed that no one said anything, no letter, nothing. People are entitled to retire, I'm happy for him and wish him well. Now I have to go back to my old doctor. They make you wait so long for appointments. I called last week and my appointment is in the middle of February.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 23w2d
How are you feeling? Freaking the F**K out because I realized I'm 4 months from my due date! Other than that, just tired because I've been sleeping like crapola. I need to get one of those body pillows but I can't get around how pricey they are! I'm about to break down and get one though.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Haven't taken my bump pic this week, hopefully tonight. Crib is coming out good. I put a second coat on it last night, so I just need to sand it down a little and put a final coat on it once the weather is nice again. Yesterday it was nearly 70 and the rest of the week is going to be between 30 and 40. I need to get it done asap so I can start working on the crib skirt. I need it to be put together so I can measure it all out correctly. Also ordered the rug and some accent tables for the nursery. I had bought a small chair that I was going to convert into a rocker, but it's too small and we've decided to get a different one. So other than a different rocker, some decor items, and a mattress, I've got just about everything for the nursery! Just wish I could officially set it up.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 14 weeks yesterday
How do you feel? Tired from the transition back to work after our 2-week holiday break.
Any Milestones this week? She's grasping things very well now and getting better at holding her own bottle.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? I feel like she's hitting some milestones really early. Like holding her bottle for short periods, trying to pull herself up into a sitting position (she's been doing this for several weeks now), & preferring to stand/sit over lying down or tummy time. I just can't believe how quickly she's aquiring these skills!
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 5 months 3 weeks! (How did that happen!!!)
How do you feel? Good. He's sleeping through the night almost every night.
Any Milestones this week? He's doing tons of new stuff like every day. He's rolling around both directions like its his job lol. Loves his feet, grabs at anything he can get his hands on! We started baby food about 2 weeks ago ( had wanted to wait til 6 months but formula was no longer keeping his satisfied). So far he loves sweet potatoes, avocados, green beans and peas!
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Here's so pics of him loving his food
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 10 weeks 3 days
How are you feeling? The last few weeks were horrible for morning sickness and exhaustion but things are turning around turning around now, thank goodness!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? A lot has happened the past few weeks. I learned I have a subchorionic hemorrhage that is very small but still worrisome as a mommy. All of the ladies at my work now know as does my family. The belly has grown nonstop and there is no hiding it now! I've also been able to find the heartbeat on my doppler since 9w 6d
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 18m and 3 1/2
How do you feel? Pretty good
Any Milestones this week? My daughters speech has gone from very little to full blown sentences! She went from shaking her head "no" to food to saying "no, I don't like it" in a matter of weeks! My son figured out that I am pregnant and he is so excited about the new baby in mommy's belly! He is so sweet
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Nothing much this week other than that I love my babies
Thanks, I decided last night we were starting to put her down awake and let her go to sleep on her own. She finally refound her thumb and went to sleep. Hopefully we can made progress this weekend.
