W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: BFN today, temp dropped, waiting on AF. I'm cool with it
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 3 1/2 months. Lost track of weeks.
How do you feel? so tired. I'm pumping for 10 minutes after every feeding including MOTN. I feed him, give him a 2 oz bottle then pump. It takes about an hour. Luckily I'm producing enough in the MOTN so I just need to feed and pump, but getting him back to sleep is harder now.
Any Milestones this week? Can sit up unassisted for a couple seconds.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Other than his feeding schedule kicking my ass, nothing.
How old is your LO? 3 months
How are you feeling? Sick. H and baby got a cold last week. Friday I got the cold. All I want to do is curl up in bed and sleep but I have to take care of baby.
Any milestones this week? We got our first cold.
Rants/thoughts/pics? I'm glad I sent in 5 bottles to daycare today (we knew we were going to pick him up later then usual) because he ate all of them. But down side is that I can't keep up. I've been hitting the freezer stash a lot lately.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 7 1/2 months
How do you feel? Got my period yesterday, so blah. My PP periods have been horrendous. Much worse that I ever remember them being. I am drained and uncomfortable with a din of a head ache all day. I would say I can't wait for the weekend so I can rest, but I have to attend professional development on Saturday.
Any Milestones this week? Getting very close to crawling. Finally saying some things, although can't really make them out. She said something loud Sunday afternoon, but H and I couldn't figure it out. I am pretty sure she's said "ma" a few times. I am happy that she is beginning to talk, but sad that her cute squeals and coos will be going away. Also, she's drinking from a straw cup. I've been trying to get her to do it for about a month. Sunday was the day she started. She is adorable when she grabs it and starts to drink on her own. She gives me a look like she's doing something sneaky. I can't help but kiss her when she does it.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? We had our 7 month check up last week. She's 26 inches long and 13 lb 10 oz. She is a peanut, but H and I were peanuts, so no one is concerned. This month was her biggest weight gain yet.
How many weeks: 34w2d
How are you feeling? Good but tired. Getting anxious about getting everything ready for the baby. I'm hoping to knock out a lot of things from our to-do list this weekend.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I have my biweekly appt this afternoon and I'm a little nervous about the fundal height. I also need to ask my OB about some concerning movements she's been having. Several times a day, she'll shake really hard, almost like a spasm and I've noticed it happening more and more. Hopefully it's nothing and I'm just being paranoid.
Ah sorry, I forgot it was Tuesday yesterday. How is it only Wednesday!? I'm crazy busy at work and having to deal with a cw who either ignores my questions or gives me a rude email response. Yesterday I decided to tell his boss and my boss via email (documentation). I'm waiting for my boss to talk to me about it today. I didn't go directly to him, because whenever I do, he sides with the cw. "boys will be boys" "you're being too sensitive" "maybe he was having a rough day". I can't handle it anymore....
wow, sorry for the rant...
@goatlady12 - YAY for weight gain! I hope your supply goes up and you can quit pumping. You are amazing with doing all that.

How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 6 mons
How do you feel? good actually. We've been STTN for about 2 weeks now. Sunday night she got up twice, but the other nights she sleeps right through. She wakes up, but I give her 10 mins to go back to sleep and she usually does. I do have my bouts with mommy brain. I squeezed my lemon in my coffee cup instead of my water bottle. Good thing there was no coffee in it yet!
Any Milestones this week? We are doing all naps in her crib. Usually we can put her in there and she'll self soothe to sleep. It's amazing! Saturday morning's nap was 3 hours and I got to deep clean the master bathroom. I'm more excited about that then I should be.

H watches E every other Monday until Noon-ish. I told him here is her new schedule - wake up, bottle, play, solids, bottle, crib for nap.
He calls:
H "she's won't sleep it's been 30 mins".
Me "Where is she"
H "In the swing"
ME "She hasn't been in her swing in WEEKS. PUT HER IN THE CRIB! "
Text from H 10 mins later "she went to sleep 3 mins after I put her in the crib"
Me +-_-

How do you feel? Tired. Wren was sick last weekend with allergies (cough & sore throat from drainage) & I got sick yesterday. I'm hoping she sleeps well this weekend so I can catch up on some rest.
Any Milestones this week? She's scooting herself more when on her belly. I think she'll be crawling soon...
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? Can't upload any pics
