Had full work up including blood work, catheter, X-rays. Conclusion is Bronchiolitis - some cuffing of airway on X-ray. Could be rsv but treat same way. Going home. Just have to watch for labored breathing and dehydration. Labs could show something else but doubtful. follow up with pediatrician tomorrow.

@winniebee: oh no. Is he nursing OK? Do they give you anything for bronchiolitis?

I'm at work right now checking up on HB I can't wait to go to bed! I got up at 5am with J on Saturday, stayed up all day, worked all night went home and nursed J and went to bed at 9:45am. DH woke me up every two hours to feed J. Up for good at 3:30 to get ready for work and drive back in the snow. Can't wait for the sun to come up and to get back home to my babies and my bed (even though I'll be getting up to feed J).
This mama is tired!

Anyone else losing tons of hair? Mine's been so bad for weeks already. I had the same pp hair loss with M, but I forgot how dramatic it is!

@winniebee: Poor R! Hope he feels better soon.
@MrsF: Yikes! Your schedule sounds horrible! I hope you are able to get some sleep! As for hair, I don't think I'm losing it yet, but I remember with Xander feeling like it was coming out in clumps!
So we survived the growth spurt!!! Logan blessed me with 8.5 hours of sleep last night! So thankful since I had to be up early for work... and as I was typing this, he just threw up all over me...

@MrsF: yes! My hairbrush has soooo much hair in it.. I have to clean it daily.
pomelo / 5298 posts
@MrsF: Yes, k is constantly covered in hair. Hers and mine. Hers is falling out too!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
So I just read back some of the March 2013 boards and I don't think Xander went through this growth spurt! No wonder Logan's behavior threw me for a loop.
And poor Logan is sick. His cries sound so hoarse.

@MrsF: No, I feel like it is the opposite, my hair was sooo stringy and greasy during pregnancy, I feel like it is a lot better now!

@MrsF: My hair is awful lately! I finger-comb it after I shower to grab all the loose strands, so gross. Poor Ethan is always covered in my hair.
I feel like all our babies are sick at the same time. Maybe this board is contagious.
@MrsF: Oh wow, what a crazy schedule, props to you!
So I know a lot of us have gotten our periods back already, anyone on cycle 2 yet, or remember how it was after your first pregnancy? I got mine back at 8 weeks pp and am 13 now with out getting it again (already tested to make sure I wasn't pregnant). Wondering it I'm going to be a few weeks late or just not get it again for awhile?

@josina: I haven't gotten AF yet this time around, but with Xander, I remember I went 40+ days between my first cycle and second postpartum. It takes a while for your body to get back to normal!

Sooo me and my mom had it out today we went for a morning walk with G and I was talking about getting some gates to make G a play yard in living room we currently play mostly in her room, and of course she had her opinion and said ohhh that's stupid I never did that..blah blah well I let that go and again we talked about sunscreen and I said yeah around 5 months it says and we'll I bet you can guess....so I finally said mom I didn't ask your opinion please don't comment on everything I tell you and she went off saying I'm your mother I will tell you my opinion if I want!!!! then told me I'm insane as a mother and said my aunt thinks so too because I won't let G take a nap in my mom's bed??? Ummmm I baught her an rnp why can't she just use it?? And that I didn't know my aunt smokes so when I saw her smoke I wouldn't let her hold G again....sorry it is just how I am!
I am sick I don't want to fight with her, but I also can't keep quite and I am.just now hurt/pissed that they obviously talk about me as a Mom when I'm not around...even if they think I'm nuts keep it to your self and let me be MOM, it's not like have her in a bubble.....lol or shelter her....
Ohhh and she thinks because after she says but you can do what you want that it is ok???? Yes, if I asked d and said Hey mom what do you think about......

@FaithFertility: I would flip out about the smoking!!! I am so sorry you are dealing with this especially it's coming from your mom! Don't stop what you are doing even if it's hard... You are doing such an amazing job & G is flourishing!!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@FaithFertility: Ugh, sorry you had it out with your mom!! I've had a few of those with my mom too. They just did things so differently when our parents had newborns. And I think people get defensive and upset when you don't do it the way THEY did it because they feel like we're saying they did it wrong. It's hard to balance doing what's right for you and your child and being diplomatic with other people's opinions! Sorry you're dealing with that. It's extra hard when you're butting heads with family!
eggplant / 11861 posts
@snowjewelz: I was sooo nice about it too, I kindly said to my Aunt I'm sorry I didn't know you smoked if I had I would have made sure you got the baby this while time before you had one.... only reason she did was my cousin had them and I guess it sounded good???? ...blahhhhh I wasn't rude at all!
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@FaithFertility: You do what you can! You can't control how other people receive it. While my mom & MIL are very good, I def receive a billion unsolicited advice from the hundreds of people we see @ church weekly. I just smile and nod... I think what's important for me is to have people to vent too! Once I get it out of my system I'll chug along. But I know it's extra extra hard coming from your mom whom you see all the time.
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@FaithFertility: It is... B/c she is your mom and she will always think she's right since she did raise you.. Just know that you are already doing a great job and you are G's mommy so you will always know best!!
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@FaithFertility: I hope you will feel better soon! I know it takes a while to come out of that place
eggplant / 11861 posts
@snowjewelz: I just don't know what to do, do I just let it all go???? But at the same time it is not
Right?? and she will NEVER apologize for what she did she just in a few days will act like nothing happened..
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@FaithFertility: With my mom, I try to just let things go, because she can be sooooooo helpful and awesome most of the time. Some things, I stick to my guns (like car seat safety), but other things, I just let her give me her opinion and just nod, even if I'm ignoring it.
pomelo / 5298 posts
@FaithFertility: Sorry your mom is giving you such a hard time. I would let it settle for a bit. When you can be less emotional about it and speak more frankly with her would be good to readdress it. It's hard when you are emotional for others to see your point, it just seems to feed their idea that you are whatever point they are trying to make already.
I hope that doesn't sound harsh, it's not intended to be. I think you do need to make an effort for your mom to understand that you don't need a running commentary of critique on your choices but she'll (hopefully!) be able to better hear it if you can remove your emotion.
I'd be hurt if I were in your shoes too.

@Adira: I'm really trying....she loves G to death and is an amazing grandma, and I love her company but it is ruining it for me, I need G to take a bottle again so maybe they can start having more 1 on 1 time
eggplant / 11861 posts
@MamaG: No not harsh at all, I agree I just don't think emotions or not she will listen, kind of how she is....so I'm going to try to let it go
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@FaithFertility: I agree with Adira... On some things maybe you can try to just let it go more, smile & nod.. But on certain things that are important for you, don't budge.

Going to mow lawn....get my anger out....lol it is 85 and super sunny!!!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@FaithFertility: Way to rub it in for us northerners who are stuck under six feet of snow!
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@FaithFertility: Hahah I'm sure your DH is happy about this! And you can get a good work out in!
I know @Adira we just got another 7" of snow yesterday! I think I have forgotten what 85 degrees in the sun feels like!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@snowjewelz: I think I've forgotten what the sun even looks like! It's always snowing or cloudy it seems!
pomegranate / 3973 posts
@Adira: @snowjewelz: @FaithFertility: Its 25 degrees here and sunny, and right now I actually consider this 'nice'!
eggplant / 11861 posts
I truly forget it can be snowing........my aunt and then we're here from Minnesota and commented on how weird it is to be 7 feet under snow to 80 ...sorry! I will trade for a day or two

@snowjewelz: he worked all weekend so win win he gets baby snug and I get a few to my self
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
@FaithFertility: omg I would die for 85!! I'm sorry you are going through this with your mom. My mother in law is very opinionated and she really can annoy me but because she does such great things for our family I let it go. Sometimes I counter when she drops comments but often times I totally ignore her. I probably would feel different if it were my own mom
Ryan woke with a 101.4 this morning (after sleeping 1230-730 - of course I couldn't sleep much I was so worried and his coughing and grunting kept me up and the toddler woke. At 5 for Advil). But he hasn't had Tylenol since 8 and his fever is only 99. His cough is sad but he's acting fine. We went to the doc today and she just said to keep an eye on his breathing. Big brother came too and he has an ear infection. Is it spring yet????
