    @Mrs.KMM: super cute! Love the tongue pick.
    @LindsayInNY: her baptism pick is adorable!
    @78h2o: Holly is so good with her head! I must admit W sucks at it haha. He just cries and kicks his feet and doesn't try to hold his head up at all.

    E has rolled over every day for a week and I can not catch it on video. He always does it when I walk away!

    @hocuspocus: love her smile!
    @Jess1483: that's awesome he's already rolling over... though sometimes the increased mobility is a pain! I want Holly to do it, but I'm sure I'll regret it!

    So, get what just happened to me! I had a college student barge into my office while I was pumping and STAY in my office. WTF! I had a note on my door that said "Do Not Disturb" and a heavy chair against the door (there's no lock). He knocked and I said, "Hold on a minute," but he just opened the door, pushing the heavy chair aside. I said, "Sorry, I'm pumping," and he responded, "I just have a quick question." And then he stayed while I awkwardly tried to cover myself. Fortunately I am wearing a pretty discreet top that only has holes for the bottles, but still. I think he was sort of clueless... I'm not sure he even realized what I was saying/doing. So embarrassing though!!!!!

    @Jess1483: super cute! I feel like W will take forever to roll over. He hates being on his belly so much. Who knows how long it'll take him to crawl or roll over. I wouldn't be surprised if he tries to skip it all and go to walking.

    @78h2o: yikes!!! Kudos to you for listening. I probably would've freaked out just from the surprise.

    Ugh! Postpartum hair loss is starting in full force over here! There was a pile of hair when I got out of the shower.

    can't believe mine has so much hair.

    @MrsBrewer: such a cutie!!!

    @Mrs.KMM: mine has been coming out for about 3 weeks now. It is getting out of control! It's more annoying that I keep pulling hair off of DS.

    @rosegold: that's so much hair! Love it!

    I didn't really put two and two together until my mom pointed it out but I think W is teething already! My mom said that me and my two brothers had our first teeth in at 4 months and i read it's not that uncommon for it to start this early. I have drool everywhere!

  31. Mrs.KMM

    grapefruit / 4355 posts

    @Eko: E has been drooling a ton more than normal for the last week or so. I didn't even think it could be teething! Now I'll have to pay more attention!

  32. Eko

    @Mrs.KMM: it's crazy huh! W started drooling a lot a few weeks ago and now it's accompanied with him trying to munch on everything. He's developed a skin rash on his chin too. But the munching on everything is what tipped my mom off.

    @Eko: Ellie has been a little drool monster! She chews on anything she can get her little hands on. I hope it's not teething, I'm not ready for that. Lol. She chomped down on me the other day while she was nursing. It hurt even though she doesn't have any teeth yet.

    @hocuspocus: I completely don't feel ready lol!

    W rolled over for the first time today! He did it 3 times in a row so I got a video. Thought it would take him forever because he hates tummy time so I'm incredibly pumped! I also had to go back to the doctor because they were concerned about his head size, but it's fine W just has a big noggin. He's in the 98%!

    Holy cow. I weighed LO just now and he was 18lbs (dressed). No wonder he feels so heavy. He's a chunk! With all his constant eating I feel like I should be dropping more weight but my appetite is keeping pace with LOs.

    I've been feeling a little sore 'down there' lately. Is anyone else still sore? I'm thinking about going back to my doctor to make sure I don't have any extra scar tissue like I did with LO1.

    My LO used to take consistent 1-2 hour naps thoughout the day, but now she's only taking short 20-30 min naps. Ummmm I'm not liking this!!!

  37. MrsBrewer

    coconut / 8854 posts

    OH! J flipped from belly to back twice yesterday!!!!

  38. Jess1483

    nectarine / 2641 posts

    @Corduroy: Yep, still sore. DH and I tried to DTD on his birthday, but we didn't have any lube and ow ow ow. I felt awful. With LO1, I had to use topical estrogen until I was down to only one nursing session and I may have to do the same this time. Sigh.

    @MrsBrewer: That's pretty common. And sucky. But common until 6ish months. I had some luck extending LO1's naps by putting him in the swing, but most of the time it failed. I wish I'd just rolled with it instead of stressing about it all the time. But of course, if LO2 does the same, I'll probably start stressing, so...

    E was rolling really consistently, once a day for a couple weeks, but now hasn't done it in a week or so. Babies are silly.

    @Jess1483: Sex has been bearable this time PP which is light years better than last time. I was on estrogen and we still didn't get our groove back at all until weaning. Currently I'm just sore all the time. It only really hurts when I walk or sit but when am I not walking or sitting. I asked DH to take a peek down there yesterday and he said he saw some scar tissue. So back to the OB I will go.

    @MrsBrewer: Same here with my almost-12 week old baby. It's been this way for probably 3 weeks so far... I am trying to accept it instead of fight it, like someone mentioned, but it would sure be nice to get some things done/have time to myself
