0-3 mama check in

How are you mamas doing?  I know everyone asks about baby, and we're all doing out best to learn them and keep them fed, changed, well-rested, and happy- but how are YOU feeling and doing?

I am doing good. Took awhile to get into the groove, but I am getting a better schedule down with DD and DS. My goal is to start working out this week to get ready for spring and summer. I ordered two new Jillian Michaels DVDs. Hope everyone is doing well ;)

I am feeling anxious about putting LO in child care next month and transitioning her to her crib. She seems fine with sleeping in her room but I am not ready : (

She slept okay last night, just got up to eat 3 times!

Eh, I'm hanging in there. My 4 year old has been a real challenge lately. I don't know if she needs more attention, more activiites or what. Or if she's just being 4! 

DD2 has been diagnosed with "mild to moderate" hearing loss - and will require hearing aids the rest of her life - so I've been coming to terms with that, too. It wasn't what I wanted for her (who would, right?) but I need to get beyond MY hang ups and help her succeed.

I am doing ok. I am dreading going back to work in three weeks because I won't get to spend my days with L, but I'm looking forward to getting adult interaction again.

I'm starting working out again today, so I'm happy to get my body back.

I shower about every other day, my boobs hurt, and I currently hate my husband (in general for existing).  Thanks for asking!

Im wearing real people pants today! Granted they were the kind that, prepregnancy,  fit in the morning but were practically falling off by the end of the day, but they're on and buttoned so Im happy! Its weird to have to undo bottons everytime I go to the bathroom though, and then having to remember to button them back up after, lol. Im still in elastic waist mode.

On the sleep front, not so good. I should probably be napping during the day when she actually sleeps but I just cant do it for some reason.

I've been doing well until yesterday. Yesterday LO decided to sleep three hours all day from 9am to 11:30 pm, and cry all day (which i did too). He had a good night and now reuses to be put down today. I have yet to eat or brush my teeth even. 

I am only four pounds away from my prepregnancy weight and shower every other day so those are the positives. I am trying not to blame everything on my husband lol.  

We were doing really well until this setback yesterday. Tell me it's temporary and we will go back to normal soon!

Lol. Glad to know it is not just me! Maybe it is normal, and natures way of making sure we don't have more people with 2u1!
I am also exhausted and lacking patience, which is not good when you have a 2 and 3 year old!

Today has probably been my best day yet. LO is actually sleeping without me holding him, albeit hes next to me on the sofa rather than in his bassinet but still this is big news! Luckily side-lying nursing has helped me get lots of sleep but since I'm not comfortable doing this in bed with him the sofa is getting a little old. All in all feeling pretty good but sad that this is my last week at home and now things are starting to look up ...

I'm feeling good. We're getting into the groove of things. I started taking 1 hr - 1 1/2 hr walks last week and the sun, fresh air and exercise make everything seem better. I too have had better days with my hubby. At least we're all not alone in that regard...I thought it was just us :(

I'm doing okay. Some days are better than others but that's just how it is.

I will be happy when I can finally get off these blood pressure pills (thanks pre-e).  I'm hoping that will happen when I go in for my next check in February.  

Oh and I miss sleeping more than 2hrs at a time.
