Most new mamas are really tired and I'm no exception. In fact, tonight I'm so tired that I considered not changing our sheets after Maisie spit up on them tonight. I almost talked myself in to putting a towel on top of the spot! Instead I begrudgingly changed the sheets.
So what are you so tired that you did or didn't do?

hahaha oh then I must be bad because my son has spit up on our sheets for the last couple nights and I haven't gotten around to changing them. Mostly because my opportunity to change the sheets is naptime, and he naps on our bed lol
last night while I laid with him so he'd fall asleep, I fell half-asleep and didn't even realize I was gnawing on my thumbnail, and I tore off a chunk of my cuticle - that woke me up! my thumb hurt all night..

@miss-spunkin: Oh no!
I think if it was as much spit up as Maisie made, you would have changed it! She's sick right now and it was like the exorcist visited my bed

@Mrs. Jacks: aww the poor dear! Yeah it's really not that bad. And I console myself with the fact that it's just my breastmilk, so it's not *gross*, right?! lol

@miss-spunkin: Nope... Breast milk is liquid gold, so it's like you are actually *improving* your sheets

@Mrs. Jacks: Exactly!!! Thankfully my husband hasn't noticed yet!

I've had several bouts of spit up and breast milk on my sheets. I just rub it off. Sometimes I'm so tired I don't put lo back into the bassinet after I nurse her in the middle of the night (our pediatricians are against this) even though its next to the bed.

@His Barista: they tell us pediatricians that no one is supposed to co-sleep, but really with breast-feeding in-tune moms and unimpaired partners, you are fine!

I'm not a momma yet, but pregnancy got the best of me a couple weeks ago and I got in the shower in the morning with my pajama top still on. I was that tired!

@Mrs. Jacks: charlie threw up and a little bit got on his sheets recently, and i just put a blanket over it so i could wash it the next day.
i also fall asleep in the glider every single day while nursing olive!

I can't think of anything from now but when I was pregnant I would sneak across the street during my lunch break from work to sleep in a cushy chair at Borders during my 1st trimester!!

@Andrea: I remember being so tired when I was pregnant that I'd fall asleep at my desk and I'd often fantisize about crawling under my desk!

@Mrs. Jacks: i was ALWAYS fantasizing about crawling underneath my desk. oh, i probably also went into the bathroom and closed my eyes while sitting on the toilet many times. i don't think i fell asleep though .....

Ever take a crap nap at work? Go to the bathroom, sit on the toilet, lean against something and fall asleep for a few minutes...

DD has a cold and DS just went through a growth spurt. I was so tired yesterday I nodded off while feeding DD lunch! I was just sitting at the table with my head on my arms and before I knew DD was done eating and yelling "all done!"

When Chloe was first born, I was so exhausted that I left the kitchen faucet running after making a bottle. And I can't tell you how many times I put formula in a bottle that didn't have a liner... then poured in water. What a mess! I finally learned to pre-make bottles to save myself time and messes!

I was so tired I forgot to attached a bottle to the pump one night. Only realized when I felt wetness on my belly.

I was so tired today that I put my maternity skirt on sideways. It felt odd, but I just chalked it up to bloat/ more weight. It wasn't until I saw the slit on the the side (just now!) that I though "hey . . . wait a minute!" Doh!
I can't imagine how tired I will be after butterbean arrives!
blogger / pineapple / 12381 posts
@Mrs. Jump Rope: oh yeah! Been there done that! We have a whole pre-made system now. We can now do bottles on autopilot, thank goodness!

@Andrea: The best is when you can use the toilet paper roll as a pillow. Especially if it's two ply and cushy. Hehe.

Today I was so tired that I put LOs pants on without a diaper!
