I think or hope Benjamin is all better. He still spit up a lot .Mostly the BM the formula not so much. I don't know why?The doc said add a tsp of rice cereal in his bottle and that should help . We did not do it yet I don't know if he can drink it out like that ? Or if it's a good idea at all. Plus mostly we have problem with BM and I can't add nothing to that lol.
sorry about the teething DD4 had her first 2 when she was just 4 months old! No fun...
He is up again slept 10 min wow ...have to go.
How is everyone else??

Now I have the flu. Sawyer is getting better. THey gave him tamiflu, and it really helped. He still has a cough and some congestion, and had a rough night last night--he wanted to be held all night, so I slept sitting up. I feel like total crap. I hate flu season! My entire family had the flu shot (except Sawyer--he was too little) so I have NO idea why everyone got sick anyway! And then yesterday DS1 puked in the car; apparently there is a stomach bug going around as well. Aaaahhh!
Mocha, so glad you found us! Sadie is a doll! I love her little dress and sweater in that picture, too. She's a beauty!
Auroara, Lillian sounds so sweet! I am glad you are enjoying her. Your DS2 and my DD2 should get married someday..... they might be the next Bonnie and Clyde!! (just kidding!)
Flava, I don't know why Benjamin won't nap, but the baby I watch (he's 15 months now) was like that when he was little. He only cat napped. It was hard! But he grew out of it, and now takes 2 hour naps. Hopefully Benjamin will grow out of it too.
-
p.s. Mocha, congrats on the weight loss--that's awesome! I have lost quite a bit since Sawyer's birth (I was 192 when I delivered--yikes!--and now I am down to 154) but I am still 25 lbs away from where I should be. I feel like a whale! I need to start exercising! What have you done to lose weight?
-
aww Mocha, you have a very beautiful daughter :)

hobber Im sorry you guys are so sick. It is very hard for sure. We are not even suppose to be sick around here but there is so many ppl here this time around from up north and Canada and they bring all the viruses with them so we all get sick too.
We took DD1 to the ER a couple weeks ago and they said it's always full with out of state ppl lol.
I sure hope my baby out grow this cat naps fast because it's really hard to get anything done and my back is killing me.
Think mocha said she is counting calories and dieting too so she loosing weight.
I walk almost everyday and do some exercise but not loosing nothing because of the BF. have to loose 30lbs here!
-
I know Flava, I need to lose 25 but I wouldn't mind losing 30! All I have lost so far has been from Bfing, but that is slow going.... I need to start exercising. Problem is, I HATE exercise!! I would swim if I could, but we don't have a lap pool here (my town is so small!)
-
I wish I have time to go anywhere to work out! Even for the walks I only can go because I take the baby and DD4. But it's not fun with DD4 she is so slow she stop all the time for something she don't want to listen or she is whining for something ect. so not a relaxing walk. and I have to hope all the time baby don't start crying if he is up.so yeah...
I would like to go biking but only can do that when DH is home earlier and I can go alone of course. My legs are so weak can barely bike a little :( so i could really use some training here!
-
Maybe we should do work out videos! I wonder if there are any decent ones out there?
So how is Baby Benjamin? Is he all better? Sawyer is doing okay I think, he seems better. I am still sick, but not too bad. I am just waiting for my other kids to start barfing, since DS1 puked the other day, I am sure someone else will get the stomach bug....
-
hobber I was thinking the same thing!! But no idea what to get? I don't know which workout dvd would be the best.
Benjamin is all better maybe he was not sick at all or just very little. What makes me crazy is he got a blocked tear duct on one eye and it's just not getting better. The other side was the same but got all ok after like 2 week or so.
DD2 had the same on one side.
I wish the big sisters would like to play with him more ...but hopefully when he is a little bigger and can hold toys and such...
Good thing Sawyer is all better! I hope none of your other kids get sick! On 1 side I hate this months but on the other this are the only couple months we can go outside here!

Hi ladies - sorry - I forgot to check back in here. I have to get back into the habit of doing that...
Yes, I achieved my weight loss really just by counting calories. I use the iPhone app Loseit. I entered my details and how much weight I wanted to lose a week (1.5 lbs). It told me I could eat 1200 calories per day, and there's no way I could do that...but because I'm breastfeeding exclusively, I added 600 calories to that - the average amount of calories a breastfeeding woman burns in a day. So I'm eating 1800 calories a day - similar to when I was on the LE diet. Actually, I'm eating in a similar way to LE. I usually skip breakfast because it gives me more calories to play with later in the day, then I have a healthy 300-500 calorie lunch, a big dinner, and snacks In the evening. No exercise other than running after my kids. I was 178 a week before Sadie was born and am now 132. I'm at my ' normal' adult weight when not dieting. I could be happy here, but since the weight's come off so easily so far I figure why not go a bit further? My goal is 115 lbs. I don't want to be quite as skinny as I was while TTC, when I was close to 100.
I hope everyone's kids are feeling better. Sadie has started rolling from her back to her tummy and back again. I've finally gotten her adjusted to an early bedtime 6:30-7:00, and she's only waking up twice in the night and sleeping till 7 or so...but still no real naps during the day unless she's in the stroller or car.
