Return to work
I went back to work this past Monday. I'm grateful for the last 7 months (8 months total) I've been able to stay home with my lo. It's just hard getting back into the work routine. The silver lining is that I can take lo to work with me, I manage a childcare Center, I'm able to watch her on the video monitor in my office. She's not used to being one of many so she has her moments of tears because she isn't the only focus in the room. I try to stay clear of the room she's in because I want her to get familiar with her class first. When I hear her cry I just tell myself the same thing I tell other parents "she will be okay she just needs to get familiar with her new surroundings and people, she's in great hands". It's day 3 and she's adjusting pretty well. True enough I did bring her to the center to visit a few times over the last 5 months. I just miss being home with my sweet girl.
I can't believe it
My cousin stayed with me rent free from September 2015 to April 2016 and her stuff is still in my apartment. She's been saying she was going to come get her stuff for months. She text me this morning saying that she was going to come and get her stuff soon, and I asked her if I could have her air mattress. She tried to charge me $60 for it. The air mattress sells new for $35 on amazon and she didn't even pay $60 for it. I didn't respond and she just text me saying the $60 was...
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
My baby girl does not let me do anything all day 😭 I'm lucky if everything is done before my s.o gets home , she cried so I pick her up to feed her and change her diaper and once she's on my breast she eats and I burp her put her down and she'll cry I get her again and she's on my breast not even latched on just smelling my boobs 😭 I'm like girl really lmao she wants me to carry her or be with her all day , girl I wish I could lmao
I'm in the same boat! I went back to went when he was 5 months and have been back for 2 months now. I am a director of a preschool center with an infant classroom so my LO comes with me also. It is nice in so many ways to have him there with me, but it can also be so hard being able to see and hear him every time he is having a hard day, or teething and crying or not sleeping well for his teachers. Normally, he does so well but on those off days it stresses me out so badly! It's still a week by week trial in my head, some days I swear I'm going to quit because it's so hard but others I realize it's kind of nice to be out of the house having something to do. Constantly battling myself over it ;) I do agree though, if you have to go back to work it's so nice to get to be right there with your little one!
