Hi Rebekah! You certainly have your hands full. What are you going back to school for?
Hey,
I'm still here too! it's just been really hectic, I have a 7, just turned 5, just turned 3 and the baby! and my computer monitor got broken, so I have to go on the TV to check in right now! my Little girl will be 4 months on the 13th and I won't know what she weighs until then her check-up on the 13th, but last tiem she was weighied (a few weeks ago) she was 12lbs, 10oz and she has now outgrown almost all her 3-6 month outfits and starting to wear her n6-9 month outfits! I am not going back to work right now, but I am going back to school in January.
Kaelynn is great! She's been sleeping 8 hours then another 4 at night. However the last 4-5 nights she's only been sleeping 5-6 hours before eating again. I think she's growing. It seems like her diapers got to small over night. I'm on my last package of size 1 and will be going to size 2 in a few days. She's 12 weeks Monday and can't believe how time has flown by. She's in 0-3 month clothing and a few newborn still. I have no idea how much she weighs. It's been 4 weeks since her last peds apt.
I went back to work but only very part time. First week I worked 3 four hour shifts and a week off then I'm doing a 4 hour shift tomorrow. I have no idea what my schedule will be for Dec. I told my boss I could only work 4 hour shifts since I'm breastfeeding and don't get breaks so I wouldn't be able to pump at work. It took 9 weeks of frustration but she is finally breastfeeding. She now hates the bottle which doesn't make me working any easier.
I'm still here as well. I check every few days too. Liam is now 11 weeks and weighs 14.5 lbs. His hair is finally coming in and it's almost white. He's starting to sleep through the night every once in awhile. I've been working part-time but I'm starting back full-time on Nov. 29th. My hubby will be staying home with Liam.
ilovemykidz - I'm sorry you're having a rough time. I'm sure your circumstances aren't helping the PPD. I'm afraid of not seeing my kids enough too. Sounds like your baby is doing great though.
Brit - How is your little girl doing? Has returning to work been a smooth transition?
im still here... lol
my baby is now 14 weeks old.... weighing in at 17lbs and hes 24 inches (already wearing 9 month clothing)!!! very hectic having lil ones around there is no time for sleep ever i have a 5 year old, 1.5 year old, and now baby!! my middle child is guilty to trying to love the baby to death... lol shes always giving hugs and kisses and trying to carry him around but hes about the same size as her so it dosnt work very well.
i also suffer from PPD, i went back to work 11 days after having the baby, then after 8 weeks i had major surgery was supposed to take 6-8 weeks off but on my 3rd week off my husband got permanatly laid off so now im working full time during the day and 3 nights a week til 2 a.m. so i stressing about not getting to be there to see my lil ones grow but somwones got to make the money!!
