Eliza Mae - September 16th, 2014
Re: TTC Tuesday
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 2 1/2 months (11 weeks)
How do you feel? Not baby related I'm pretty emotionally exhausted. Too much going on in my life right now.
Any Milestones this week? Yes, Alex rolled tummy to back! Dh was doing tummy time and I went into our bedroom to fold some laundry. DH yelled, "He did it." I came out and luckily he did it again. I missed the first time though. I told DH I won't make that mistake again, no more folding laundry for this Momma!
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Alex has his first man cold. Didn't sleep much last night.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 9.5 months
How do you feel? Pretty good
Any Milestones this week? Nope, we are getting super close to another tooth.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? H is convinced he has the bubonic plague. I think its just a cold. I asked him to take the baby to story time at the library today. He replied "if I start feeling a little better, I might". Dude, parenting doesn't stop just because you are sick. I've been sick with cold for over a month. Deal.with.it and shut up in the meantime!

How do you feel? The usual tired. Trying to suck it up and get things done though.
Any Milestones this week? She's sitting in without assistance for longer and longer.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Um, well Jeff almost dripped Eliza last night. I put his vitamins beside him while he was holding E in the glider... one rolled off and he decided to let E go to catch it. I turn around and see him holding her by the neck of her PJs. I wanted to murder him... ESP since I told him to take his vitamins while we were downstairs... and he decided to let her go and not his phone.
@mpjf1001 - I always took my temp the first time I woke up as long as it had been 3 hours since I went to sleep. I always woke up around 2 to pee, or Jeff went to work. I was still able to see a spike etc.
How many weeks: 30w1d - holy crap!! 10 weeks to go. H and I were laying in bed the other night and the baby was kicking like crazy. He said that he couldn't wait for her to get here and I said, "we won't have to wait much longer, I'll be 30 weeks tomorrow" and it's like a lightbulb clicked on and this look of shock came across his face. He was like, "so we only have 10 weeks to go?!?" and I said, "yep, and 7 til I'm full term." I think that he's just now starting to realize how much we have to do before she gets here and has said he's going to help me out more. So, we'll see.
How are you feeling? Ok. I think I'm going to ask for a prescription for this anxiety and depression. I was really overwhelmed most of last week and I lost it on Sunday night. Appointment is tomorrow, so I'll see what the doctor recommends.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? We went to a breastfeeding class on Sunday night and it really made me want to breastfeed more than ever. I don't have high hopes since I had a reduction, but I'm praying I can. I talked to the lactation consultant a little about it and she said I'm showing good signs of being able to.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 5 months on Saturday!
How do you feel? Good. She finally had a decent night of sleep last night for the first time in what seems like weeks...so, Mommy got to sleep better, too. This 4-month sleep regression can end now.
Any Milestones this week? We started her on avacado on Sunday. She's really not liking it, but I have been offering it to her every night, just so she gets some practice with the spoon. Not sure what we'll try next week.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Our happy morning baby & staring down Elmo
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 6 1/2 months
How do you feel? Awful. I am trying to kick this sinus infection and TOM showed up. I've had a head ache since Sunday night and I am not sleeping well. Since I'm not feeling well, work has been tedious. I am so happy we have little planned this weekend so I can rest up.
Any Milestones this week? Solid foods! We started apples last week, she wasn't a fan at all. We tried bananas next and she loves them. This evening, she ate half of a banana. Tomorrow we are trying avocado. We were planning to start that today, but it wasn't ripe enough. At our 6 month check up last week, she was 25 inches and 12 lb, 5 oz. The doctor wants her to gain weight. She told us to give her whatever foods we feel and as much as she wants to eat to try to pack on some pounds. I'm not concerned about her weight. Although she hasn't gained a pound a month, she has gained the same amount of weight every month. We'll see how much she gains now that she's all formula fed.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Sunday was my last night nursing O. My supply was dwindling and then TOM showed up and I know I dipped even more. I am sad that I'm not nursing anymore. I always only planned to nurse for 6 months and although I had to add in more formula than I would have liked for the last 6 weeks, I made it to my goal and I am proud. I really loved that time with O at night. I will always cherish that special time.
