E's 20 month post and my 6 wk post apt

    Today is a tired day in our house. Between O deciding it was awake time at 4:30 am after his feed..and when we fed him at 11pm not getting to bed until after 12am. Plus Miss E was crying on and off all night and woke up at 4am losing it. At first we thought we would try to get her back to sleep..clearly was not happening..plus she had pooped and puked in her bed..and then in ours when cuddling watching cartoons. We resorted to all being up since 4am..O played in the bouncy chair and then fell asleep while we all played laundry clean up crew and played toys in the living room with doses of Tylenol and much needed coffee...did I mention this was appointment day for me. 

Miss E is 20 months old! Less than 4 months and she will be 2years old and of course it will be christmas. SANTA!!! SANTAAAAAASSSSS COMING!!! Lol sorry had to...love ELF! 

These teeth that have been seems like coming in or just tricking us and being a pain are putting poor Miss E through it all. Right now we have a rash again...which I believe is linked to acid in tomatoes etc while she is teething. Pooping like crazy..which is usually a one a day thing for E but is now a couple and man does she stink! E even plugs her nose when she poops right now..we have been joking about how bad she stinks saying peeee you and holding our nose...so now randomly she says she stinks or sometimes us..haha. I know she is in pain due to her being so picky on eating as well. E is normally a great little eater and now she is being ever so picky. I feel lately it sometimes takes her a hour to eat things that would normally take her 20 mins max. 

She is getting very tall. So tall we have to keep moving things like iPads, controls, phones and other things she thinks she should be using. Another reason why I can tell she is sprouting up is dresses I bought her are now shirts with shorts or tights until the end of summer. We are starting to say more words again..this week our favourite is Up!  

We are very grown up with her brother wanted to help..other days we are jealous trying to put things on the breastfeeding pillow or climb on it herself. This week has been long since thy have been feeding off of each other. 

My mind is running on fumes right now..so that is all you get on E today..

My 6 week post preggo apt:

This morning we dragged our tired behinds to the doctors for myself. It was a pretty fast apt considering when I had O I was lucky enough to not tare, rip or need a episiotomy. So no stitches or painful healing for this gal..just needing the baby growing organs to go back down in size and in place. I am excited to tell you I was 205lbs today! I know seems like a very large number..but when I went into have him I believe I was 232lb. Soooo 205 sounds great..I was 207 last week when I weighed myself so I am losing at a good pace and now I can work out again. 

He asked us the usual..have you done the dirty yet? What do you plan on taking for contraception ? We have not and eventually was my answer...if we keep running on 4hrs of sleep that is not happening for anyone lol. I am kind of worried about taking the pill again. I have been on so many things and not sure what more I want in my body, how it will effect me etc. I also do not want it effecting my milk supply. So he is putting me back on the pill..Doug does not want 3 under 3 he says..so if you want to still maintain the relationship with your husband and not get pregnant in the near future...the pill it is. He said the one I am going on is a light dose and does not effect my breast milk...one pill a day (another thing to remember to take), less side effects and its progesterone based I believe. I did not have to be on anything while breastfeeding E..I did not cycle until about 50 days after I stopped pumping.

I am sad that we will not be seeing him regularly or his sweet receptionist. They are like family to us..and we would not have E or O without them. Now we are back to just seeing the regular family doctor. 

Right now all are napping...which does not happen with E in the morning unless she is ill. Quiet time for this mama. Xo
