How is life been treating you ladies with newborns? I hope they are letting you get some sleep!
Aoii, sunflower, robin etc...

So far so good. Not much sleep but she is a good baby. She just wants to eat every 2 hours! We are just getting adjusted to 3 kids. Life is busy!! [emoji38] the boys are great with her too. Hope everyone is doing good too and adjusting to life with a newborn. And good luck to all the ladies who are getting so close to having their babies!

My little lady goes longest 5 hours sleep stretches at night but that's rare. Mostly it's 3-4 hrs at a time. Life is very busy. Honestly right now I find the biggest challenge is the hormones adjusting back to normal. I am getting more irritated than normal. And also (this sounds silly) but I was a little disappointed when I didn't lose all the baby weight right away. I gained 45 pounds and still have a good 20 to lose. I know this can take time and is totally normal but still hard to get used to. I am on a no sugar/limited carbs diet and it sucks so maybe that's also why I am grumpy. Lol

Robin, I am so ready to lose the weight too! I have about 20 lbs to go too. Especially since this was my last pregnancy I just want to get into shape and stay in shape this time. I just don't want to diet too much and hurt my milk supply.

Blessed wishing you a speedy delivery of your gorgeous girl!! Enjoy your last day with your boys. Can't wait to see what she looks like!
Aoii and Robin sounds like you have typical newborns there sleeping just not enough!! Oh the come down in hormones sucks Robin I lost everything pretty much with DS1 right away...no effort required!! DS2 was a different story and I started dieting when he was about 3mths old, don't be afraid to put it off until you are getting a wee bit more sleep. LE anyone??? Hehe XXX

Robin I gained like 40 pounds. Still 26 to go...
It goes slow.....

[Sunflower3]

I gained about 60 lbs this time. Yikes! Weight is coming off slowly. I also dont want to have dieting effect my milk supply.
Is anyone co-sleeping? My little guy wakes twice a night. He sleeps a good 5 hour stretch. So wonderful. [emoji4]

[Georgia_Peach]

I am unfortunately not breastfeeding. . So I'm not worried about that this time.
I am Co sleeping part of the night. First feeding she goes back to sleep in bassinet. Second feeding she wants to be close to me. I'm sleeping with her in my arms beside me. It's nuts. Lol. Hard to sleep. We are moving next week so I will start sleep training at that point.
Today has been nuts bc she hasn't let me put her down for like 6 hours now. Very fussy. Maybe gas. It's very hard to not give the boys my attention... especially since hubby is very busy at work and I'm all alone alot.

Robin2014 do you baby wear? I had pretty fussy babies but I didn't know how to wrap/wear with my first until he was several months old & the difference when he was able to be on me but my arms were free was HUGE. My second I just wore from the start & it made everything soooooo much easier. I used to sling him on my back in a half buckle carrier & make dinner while he slept there.
