Re: WTF Wednesday
i'm in open letter form:
Dear mom,
Please stop over feeding E. There's no way she needed 19 oz yesterday. She's jumped from 15 percentile to 75 (taken from my app) since you started watching her, and I can't keep up. I know you want to start cereals, but please wait until E's apt next Friday so I can talk it over with my pedi. This is not proving anything. No, BF babies do not need more milk as they get older, my milk changes to fit their needs. I'm adding more pumping sessions because you're burning through my freezer stash. I hope you see my effort and SLOW THE F DOWN!
love,
Your burned out daughter

Dear H,
Please text me if you're worried about us at night, not tap into the video monitor and scare the ever loving crap out of me by moving it to where i'm sitting!
Love,
Your now paranoid wife

Boss,
F you to my evaluation. How can you hold my ML against me!? Sorry I didn't get my work done, I was busy training my replacement at 39 weeks! I have to hold my tongue until I can go back to talk to you in a tactful manner other wise I would have F-you to your face.
Sincerely,
I think I need a new job
Yes, I showed her videos and everything.
ETA - I do have to cut her off sometimes. I let her have 10 mins and burp, and sit her up. Otherwise, she will overeat and spit up everywhere. Usually she's fine and doesn't need anymore. If she's still fussy after 5 mins or so I'll give her more.
Which is what I keep telling my mom. Food before 1, just for fun.
She half BF, half FF and was a SAHM with me. I don't think she understand the struggle of pumping. I was already freaking out because my output dropped last week. I've been drowning in water, mother's milk tea, flaxseed and brewer's yeast all weekend - changed pump parts. I finally got back up to where I was and she did this yesterday. We'll see how today goes, but I was so defeated yesterday and too sleep deprived to fight about it. H doesn't understand either... he's like who cares if she's over feeding. I CARE!
E is always starving when I get home too. My mom was feeding her when I got home and she still wanted the boob. I think it's just the contact.
I looked at the proboards, but haven't signed up. I'm going to stay on TB because TTCAL and 3T are mostly untouched and I feel like I will need guidance once we start down the treatment path soon. I might sign up on proboards for the TTC drama though! Ha
