bad morning-update
E was up at 3am with terrible reflux so I took her to the l.r. to sleep in her swing. She could not lie down at all. Poor little bumble bee! I slept on the couch and then S slept through the alarm. I woke up 20 min before my friend was picking me up which in the good old days would be fine but since I need to pump for 20 min in the am this was not good. I threw some clothes on, put my hair in a pony and pumped for 15. I got to work and tried to make coffee and the machine malfunctioned and poured all the coffee out on the counter. My boobs now feel like they are going to explode, I am only now just getting coffee and it is the middle of 1st period and while I am happy they are taking a quiz so I don't have to talk to them right now I really need to finish pumping and drink some coffee. I hope my day gets better. We are having a pizza party so at least I have that to look forward to. I will prob burn the roof of my mouth at the rate I am going today!

Well I got to pump which is good but S packed my pumping stuff and forgot to pack the screw tops to put on the top of the bottles. So now my b.m. is in jimmy rigged containers in the work fridge and I had to go around to all the people who use the fridge to tell them to be careful and not knock over my milk. Good think I work with very hip guys who don't mind talking about and seeing milk fresh from my boobs!
Sorry the crappy morning is in the air today.
Re: bad morning-update
you poor thing
I hope your day turns around soon and if nothing else, it is friday...
I think the bad morning thing might be universal...we had 3 tantrums before even leaving the house this morning!

Oh no! Sounds terrible! Will you be able to pump at all during the day to get some relief?
I hope your day turns up!

Sounds like a rough start. Hope it gets better soon!

I am sorry. That is a sucky way to start Friday. But I agree that it must be in the air. Both of mine were up at 5:50 to start their day (my alarm goes off at 6:30 - and I needed that extra 40 min) and then we had WW3 b/c I wouldn't let Carter wear a certain shirt to school (a pirate shirt that my father gave him that is a bit too scary/graphic and IMO not school appropriate.)
Hope it is better!!
Here's hoping that pizza party starts your weekend off right. Sorry you had such a stressful morning. I hope you get to sneak away to pump.
