In 4 hours, I will have been up for 24 hours straight. Kill me now, please.
Andee Beth just giggled! It was the cutest thing that I have ever heard!
Anonymous asked: you complain that "you husband" (it's never matthew, it always "my husband" *eye roll*) gets to sleep while you stay up with the baby. guess what? you wanted this. i'm sure your husband is working to support you and his child. i think that means he's allowed to sleep. this is the life you wanted, that you looked forward to. young wife & mom. your husband gave...
I need to have a good cry.
My MIL is downstairs watching Andee while I sleep. . Please tell me why I am so nervous?!

So, Andee’s umbilical cord fell off like a week and a half ago. Everything was fine, but now her belly button is bleeding. I am worried about it. Has this happened with anyone else?
Also, she will not sleep at all. I have tried everything. I am so tired. My husband is sleeping peacefully beside me. I am so jealous and it’s not fair.
My incision is infected, too. Things are.just...
Andee has been up since 11;30. It is now 5;30. She has cried nonstop. I have been up since 6:00 yesterday morning and have gotten one hr. of sleep.
I am crying and I can’t stop. I feel like a single parent even though I am not. Matthew works nights. And when he is not working he is sleeping for work. I dont think that I can do this. Oh, and I need a cigarette.
Andee Beth has gained 5 oz. in 4 days. What a chubster! She now weighs 8 lbs. 14 oz. The doctor gave her some medicine for her reflux problem!
My child will not stop tooting. She has done it about every minute or so for the past 15 minutes!
In the past 15 minutes, Andee Beth has pooped on my mom, me, and herself. She has spit up everywhere and peed on herself and the bed.
… Welcome to parenthood.
Sweet Andee is 2 weeks old today! Wow!
I can’t wait to do the dirty with my husband again. We could not do it while I was pregnant because it hurt so bad. I swear, we have not done the deed in like 5 months. -_-
I am going to have to make a to do list to get anything accomplished!
Oh my good gracious! Andee Beth has been fussing since 4:30 this morning. It is now 9:00. I am so tired that I want to cry. I have tried feeding her, changing her diaper, rocking, walking around, singing, talking, gas drops, etc… And nothing will keep her calm for more than 10 minutes.
Oh yeah, I forgot… Andee gained 4 oz.! She now weighs 8 lbs. and 9 oz.!!
Oh my god, I cannot get enough to eat.. I am SO hungry. I have already eaten so much today and I cannot do that anymore. I am not pregnant and I have to lose all of this weight.
I have had: -Bagel with bacon and cheese on it. -Hashbrown -Chicken quesadilla -Hard taco -Two handfuls of Rice Krispy Treat cereal
I AM SO HUNGRY!
Matthew and I had a date night last night. It was not much. We just went to eat at applebee’s (YUCK) and went to walgreens. It sounds so lamd, but I actually had a great time! We really needed it. We have been so stressed and overwhelmed that our emotions have been all over the place! It was so good to have some couple time. I had not laughed so hard since Andee Beth was born! I get so mad...
My awesome and amazing husband is off of work tonight! He has watched Andee Beth all night long and just brought her in for a feeding. I got to sleep from 10 until 4! I feel so good compared to normal. I really needed that!
I have the most beautiful child. .
My sweet baby has reflux so bad. :’( She cries when it comes up because it hurts her throat. We go to the doctor on Monday and hopefully they can give her something for it. It is killing my heart. :(:(
I have lost 17 lbs. in 9 days. I only have 3 more lbs. to lose until I am back to my pre pregnancy weight!
I really need to get our house in order! It is so nasty and people are wanting to come visit. I can’t let them into my house when its like this. Ugh. Also, we came home (from staying at my mom’s for a week) and mouse has died somewhere in our house. The smell is terrible. Ugh, ugh, ugh!
Andee is one week old today!
miisty asked: My girl's actually in the NICU right now, so I only get to see her when I'm up at the hospital with her :( She'll be there for a while so I won't really get to experience being a mom for *probably* two more weeks. It's hard to say when she'll be home. But I know I'll enjoy it <3 How are you liking it? I can only imagine the happiness you feel getting to...
