Congratulations Jay seems you had an interesting birth story but glad to see you and your baby is well .

Afm just dealing with my princess she is something else feisty and fussy but I am enjoying every minute of it. My kids were scared of her at first but now they coming around they said she was too small

Hope you are well with your little ones

It's me, Cotton. I uploaded photos from my camera onto my laptop with a small harddrive and it started having problems and logged me out of all of my accounts and I can't remember my login for this site. Still haven't finished baby #1's babybook. lol 

 

Canada and Jay - I'm sorry to hear you're in so much pain. I hope it's mostly gone now. My pain was never anywhere near that bad. My hospital gave me some kind of a long term local that takes days to wear off. Nobody told me the name. 

 

Canada - the spinal/epidural was really weird. It was a really weird (and sad) experience to throw in the towel and get the epidural knowing the section was coming because I went through an induced labour medication free with my son. I think I am very sensitive to the opioids because my egg retrieval meds basically knocked me out cold. I only felt pressure from the OB bouncing the baby around trying to get her out, and I'm pretty sure that was felt only on the parts that were not knocked out by the spinal 

 

Jay - I had a really hard time with my first too, especially the breast feeding. Talking to other moms it seems alot of people have a hard time with their first. It's a learning curve. I think the first labours are harder as well and baby comes out a little more banged up. 

 

Hoping - I hope you got into a twin rhythm and are somehow getting a little sleep! 

 

London - is it true all the team green babies were girls and all the known sex babies were boys? Are you finding your one fussy baby harder than twins? 

 

AFM - baby is doing great. She regained her birth weight in less than a week. I can feel her chubbing up in my arms. If I had an electronic breast pump I'd donate milk. Apparently fattening up babies is something I'm really good at

Hello ladies glad you all doing well with you all babies!

Afm my little lady is fiesty I dont have time for anything but spoiling her. I dont know how much she weighs but we go for 2 months appointment next week so I will update you all then.

Pandora you should seriously wear surgical masks and wash your hands as soon as you get off the subway. You don't want to catch a new virus every week. I didn't see my family doctor's face for months because she happened to accept us as patients when pregnant. lol

I was going through old posts to find the date I knew I was pregnant for the baby book and found this weirdly prophetic post. 

 

How is everyone? My baby is great. I haven't weight her recently but she is definitely chubbing up very well. When she's mad I swear she says "mmmmumm mummmm". 

 

I counted over 15 user names for our month and only a handful of us made it.  

 

Hope everyone is doing well!

Glad you are doing well Cotton! Crazy about your post regarding the subway a year ago. I just hopped on to see how everyone was doing. This is not the maternity leave I had expected but things are going well here. Baby girl was born 6lbs 5oz and is still so tiny but gaining well, which is the complete opposite of her 9lbs 4oz brother who was always so chunky lol.

Hello ladies me and my love bug is doing fine . Her siblings are getting very comfortable with her now. I am back working only because we are teleworking but good thing is I have a nanny so she helps a whole lot . She keeps us all busy . She definitely is chunky I think she have to at least be about 15 pounds will be going to doctors on Friday for her 4 month check up. I hope everyone is doing well and motherhood is treating you all well .
