Georgia (hi, btw).. I agree.. mom shoulda left, give the opportunity to her DD

yay Mac!! I'm up... DS is sleeping on my c hest & I'm wide awake yay

yeah, that's what DH and i were thinking...

i am SERIOUSLY wanting to open my front door and let my 2 dogs out.. i know this is horrible to say, but i am so sick of their whining and barking... THEY are the reason my blood pressure is up... i wish i knew a good shelter that i could send them to...

notice i didnt mention HOW MUCH my Water weight gain was... (let's just say total gain is still more than yours...) i dont think we should obsess about weight gain right during pregnancy... i really dont... i mean 100 pounds, that would be an issue cause its not healthy, but 'average gain' is what 15-35? so you're a bit more than average ... so what. you'll drop it quickly ...

thanks for popping in Wheetsin! :tongue2: it is good to know that a routine will eventually come... he's kinda in one now, but just looks like he broke it cause he's been eating CONSTANTLY ... before he was going 2 - 3.5 hours (max) between feeds ... lately, its been every 90 mins or so... growth spurt i guess ... although he is still VERY much a peanut (preemie clothes are still too big).. i went for a fill yesterday... after losing all my Water weight (what i gained due to hypertension - lost immediately after delivery), it turns out i only gained 20 pounds... which was a huge shocker!! although i look like i've gained a good 40-50 still for some reason...

i was the same way ... i couldnt wait to hold him... COULD NOT WAIT!! now im really finding i miss our 'alone time'... something that only the two of us shared... not that i dont LOVE holding him IRL, but it's just different... :tt2: but then i see him dreaming and smiling and then i'm like yeah, its great that he's here!!! :tongue2:

i thought she had his cell number? :tongue2: :tt2:

cant have popcorn, its bad for the band dontcha know??!

yeah, just one ...

why not? we've been posting just to post for well over a year! :rose:

i agree! let's go!! :rose:

what's the deal with page 667? I'm on page 200... I am wondering who's gunna be poster 10,000...?

cool!! JUST the answer I was looking for!!! :tongue2:

PJTP - I just got a massive fill today... it's ok to have a burger & fries, right? it's just a single burger.... heh.

pjtp - found the greatest iPhone app - called Lose It ... it's a food and activity tracker... and it's FREE!!! yay i go in for my first fill tomorrow... soooo ready for it!!! oh yeah ... adding... my in-laws are coming into town to meet DS... they are staying at a hotel THIRTY miles from our house... WTF??? and they are only staying Saturday noon-ish to Sunday 4pm-ish... ummm... we are going to see them for maybe 2-3 hours ... not that I mind, but geesh!!

PJTP - I hate it when I go to a thread, read, start to respond and either get distracted by life or fall asleep...

babyfever - sorry about your MIL. i read Jaime's post on FB, so incredibly sad. she is in my thoughts. i do have my son, DH is holding him right now... he is 2 weeks old today, hard to believe its been 2 weeks already!!

i had an anterior placenta too ... it really did cushion a lot of the kicks until towards the end ... then WOW... he got really strong and i got some really powerful kicks... those kicks are what i miss the most... :frown:

skinny - it really all depends ... some people got really tight, some did not... initially, i got REALLY tight and needed a partial unfill, then i got a fill then eventually was completely unfilled cause i was afraid i'd get too tight and wouldnt be able to get an unfill due to the position of my uterus... just paranoid i guess... my port got tender towards the end and my son did end up kicking it (or it felt like he was kicking it)... overall, i had no issues with my band in pregnancy.

it's been good.. I didn't realize how much they actually sleep the first week... now he's a tad more awake... DH is really helping out with the night feedings... he takes midnite & 6 am shift.. I get 2&4. not so bad... I am tired though... need to settle into routine.. loving every minute of it though!!! :biggrin:

oh, it is!! you should try it sometime... what - you havent read from the beginning?? im sorry, we need your membership card back... :thumbdown: pjtp - i dont even remember posting about 3am feedings!! :eek: tired, but i love every minute of it!!!

pity party of 2 ??? i'll join you ... not really doing anything right now either... im drinking my cold chai tea so no sleep for me any time soon... mmmmmm... drinking ... why didnt i think of that? oh yeah, the 3am feed would come wayyy too soon... sorry you are on call...

hmmm... i thought i replied to some of these, baby brain... yikes, sorry... nope, too many wacko's out there... i jsut sent you a PM with my email ... MUCH easier to find people that way...

CONGRATS!!!!!! arent most bosses jerks? sorry -- wayyyyyyyy too many crazies who can be on here... join FB...you know you wanna... if you are concerned about a virus, dont do the quizzes, etc.... just update... i can send DD over ... she'll keep you entertained... he's doing ok ... still has jaundice and eating issues (only ate about 12 oz yesterday), but we're working thru them.. i cant believe it will be a week in about 1 hour 45 min!! last week this time damn i was in some pain (stupid half working epidural!!) dd is doing ok... a tad green around the edges, but she's coming around. PJTP - ok ... i wont go into details, but i'm becoming more physically active the past 2 or so days - im actually almost caught up on the laundry, dishes pretty much done right on time, unloading some of J's clothes, you name it... the things they DONT tell you about for when after the baby comes ... scared the crap out of me... i thought i was dying .. literally...
