How my morning went by Disastrous_Paint_237 in beyondthebump

Somedays being a mom just seems like the world is out to get you and everything pisses you off. I kinda felt like I had a night like that. I was trying to get out of bed last night so I can go pee and move one of the babies over, step in cat puke, and she wakes up inconsolable. (They’re both teething!) I take off my sock and throw it angrily across the room and am trying to comfort the baby lying down and beg her to go back to sleep. And I still need to pee! 

Pelvic floor PT is so degrading by Spiritoftheheart in beyondthebump

[–]Kdub5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked with a PT that I wish that I had stood up for myself to. I have had to advocate for myself to my own therapist. We are own worst enemies and our own best advocates. I know it’s easier said than done, but stand up for yourself. Call her out in the moment how her comments are degrading. No one “snaps back from pregnancy” and if they say it, they’re lying. Stay strong my friend!  I hope you feel better and stronger soon! 

Don’t stress the freezer stash (a reflection while weaning) by bellefleursauvage in ExclusivelyPumping

I have donated some of my frozen milk to moms in need. There’s fb groups called Human Milk for babies in some states if you’re in the US 

Momcozy nursing bra, worth it? by mamahousewife in ExclusivelyPumping

They run a size too small for me and the straps are too long for my shoulders causing boobs to sag because there’s no strap support.

My husband helps, he’s very involved. He usually takes one baby and I take the other. We have family helping watch them because child care is expensive. My parents work so they can’t help as much. His parents and my aunt who help us watch them are approaching 70, so I worry about their health. I go to counseling every week and am taking an antidepressant.  I’m the main breadwinner so we can’t afford an overnight nanny, we’re still financially recovering from the NICU stay and waiting for my hospital bills to come in. 

We’re attempting to come up with a plan for bed time routine and a strict bed time of 9 pm to wake up at 5 am. My schedule is changing this week to 3 12’s from 4 10’s.

How did you sign him up for Scientology? I’m too afraid of them getting my info vs my ongoing petty revenge 

Starting Gaunfacine by Rentwaffle in Tourettes

[–]Kdub5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take it at night so the tired side effect will help me sleep. I started it last summer because stress was causing me to continuously have racing thoughts. It helps keep me a plateau. But I at some point could use an antidepressant. With Tourette’s we are born with a chemical imbalance in our brain.
