H is worried that we're medicating A too much and she doesn't really NEED the ibuprofen we've given her the last five or so days. I do think she's got a tooth coming in, due to the way she's been nursing and preferring softer foods for the last week or so. The nights we haven't given it to her, she's woken up and been fussy and uncomfortable and never really settles back to sleep.
He wanted to forego the ibuprofen last night (which I thought was a bad idea) but it was his "night" to get up with her anyway, so fine. She woke up 3 times total, two before we went to bed and then for an hour between 2:30 and 3:30. It started with babbling, then whining, then crying. H went in once the crying started and checked her diaper. He came back to our room and she kept crying. The only thing I said in all of this was "Did you give her the ibuprofen?" after he came back in from checking her diaper. He said no but he would if I wanted him to. I said nothing. 5 minutes later, cue him getting up to get the still-crying child, give her ibuprofen, then she fell asleep almost instantly.
His thought this morning, "I think we need to redo sleep training."
I ordered the 21 day fix because I need to exercise and I can't use the treadmill/spin bike until we move into our house. This solves random #1 since I am not getting pregnant until I lose this weight.
Our cabinets came in yesterday. I can't wait to see them!

On the way to work this morning a coworker was stopped behind me at a red light. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw him pick his nose and check out the booger on his finger. Then he parked next to me in the lot and i had the keep a straight face walking in. No clue where the booger went.
DS got bit for the first time at DC yesterday. The provider slipped and said "she" so I have a good idea of who it is. I think ds is scared of her. On Monday my friend dropped off her son the same time the other girl was being dropped off and ds ran to her and wouldn't leave her side all while watching the other little girl closely. Luckily this morning his teacher was showing her how to play nice with ds and it seemed to be going well.
I love doing our taxes. I look forward to it annually. I do them basically the minute I get all the forms.
This past weekend, I thought I had everything except for one of DH's 1099s. I asked him to look for it online. He looked and ASSURED me that he wouldn't be getting one for this account. I filed the taxes.
And then the form showed up yesterday. Arrgh. Hopefully amending them is not a big deal.

Pregnancy dreams are straaange. I have three or four very detailed dreams every night. Sometimes I'm not sure if I'm awake and my mind is just wandering to weird places or if I'm actually dreaming.
DS1 has been up since 430 coughing and in our bed. Then DS2 got up at a reasonable 630 am but had a poop explosion diaper. All over his pjs, stomach, up the back, etc. So it required a bath first thing am.
And I still have to call preschool and tell them DS1 isn't coming because he's sick. But at least my mom is watching the kids and I get to go to work and not deal.with sick kids all day.
H has brought up the timing of hypothetical #2 a few times lately. Which is alternately super exciting and makes me want to breathe into a paper bag.
Last night DH was telling me how he's been thinking about what HIS ideal timing is.. I'm all, ^o) no.
Btwn him not being home during day light hours (or at all), DD being a teething monster, there is no way I could even think about possibly wanting to TTC right now. nope.

WTF?
MH thinks this too. He says, "i think she's addicted to it, look how excited she gets." LOL H.. I'm pretty sure it's bc it tastes like candy, not bc she's addicted to ibuprofen.
He can say what he wants, i'm the one that's home with her 24/7, and has to deal with the screaming teething child at 2am.

I think I need to break out the "headache" argument. "If you had a headache, wouldn't you take something for it, instead of suffering through it? Why should we make A suffer through teething pain?"

Same here! We were having sex last night and H typically starts without a condom, then pulls out and puts one on before he finishes. Except that last night he really delayed the putting one on part. I called him out on it and he said, "don't you want another cute baby like L?" Umm, yeah I do but not anytime soon. He's not the one who gets up with him 3 times a night and he knows I want to wait until August/September before trying again. Good try, H.
He finally responded (he was legit in a meeting lol), but now he won't take responsibility! Which infuriates me almost as much as no response. This is our conversation verbatim:
me: I specifically left your keys on top of the diapers so that you would bring them! DH: They were diapers just sitting there! How was I supposed to know their intentions? It could have been a piece of garbage sitting there. Do I bring that to daycare? me: WHY WOULD YOU BRING GARBAGE TO DAYCARE?!!?
(I'm half lol and half HULK RAGE.)
lol at the intentions of the diapers.
I have left diapers/wipes on the DRIVER'S seat of DH's car and he moved them to the passenger seat when he got in to drive to daycare and then didn't bring them inside.

purplecow0206 I'm definitely in the medicating camp, poor thing, but keep an eye out for constipation! It crept up on us and made DD just about as uncomfortable as the teething.
In the past week, I've had about 23049828 people tell me it's time to have another baby, twice just this morning. It makes me feel so weird.
I mean, we're TTC, so obviously I agree it's time to have another baby. But I just make an awkward comment, "Oh, it's easy for YOU to say to have another baby. This guy is a handful!" or "He just finally started sleeping, let me enjoy the moment!"
What am I supposed to say? Yes. We want another and are currently fucking with purpose?? Awkward.
I accidentally swallowed an M&M whole. It's bothering me, like I think it's stuck somewhere. Or it could just be a mental thing, but either way I would like that feeling to go away.
I feel like kind of an asshole, but Amazon promised me a $33.xx refund for my December S&S order, but it was never processed. I have the chat transcript and was hoping they'd just say okay! and process the credit, but now they are recalculating it and want to give me like $8.
I say not fair since it was acknowledged that this was a 1 time thing and should have already been processed. So I'm arguing with them over the $25.
To be clear, I really shouldn't have received the $33 credit in the first place, it should have been the $8; but if they told me $33 to begin with, I shouldn't be guilty, right?
I also got an email from them for the 10th Anniversary of Prime saying I was a top customer
One of my feeding issue kids had a swallow study today-she's been on nectar thick liquids since she was 9 months old due to aspiration (she's a little over 2 now). Her last swallow study (in spring of last year) did not go well for various reasons, but a lot has changed since then so I suggested repeating the study to her parents and they were all for it so the NP put in a referral. She passed! Which means her parents can stop thickening everything she drinks...she has a lot of random other stuff going on that they have to worry about, but thickener is no longer one of them. I am SO flipping excited for her, and her family Squeee!

Double pooptastrophe in the Y parking lot! DS2 had to ride home in his diaper because DH took our emergency onesie out of the diaper bag for some reason.
DS2 is four months today, and I just moved his chunky butt into 9mo onesies and 12mo pants (to accomodate his prodigious tummy). I got to hear him laugh for the first time yesterday! Baby giggles rule.
I forgot to put my rings on today. I really hate that feeling.
Yeah, it feels weird to go out not wearing it/them. I used to wear my ring night and day, but now I don't put it on in the morning until after my workout because I don't want it all scratched up (from using heavy dumbbells).
