So What Wednesday



Life After I Dew


This week, I'm saying So What if...
  • My son is one month old today. Already.
  • Today is my 4 week post baby appointment and I know I'm not going to be happy with the scale. Why can't I be one of those girls where the baby weight just melts off?
  • I started putting my little guy's hair in a Mohawk and I'm obsessed. 
  • The Coach purse I bought to replace the last Coach purse has to be returned too. The straps are starting to rip off just like the last one. What the hell?
  • The Voice started this week. Yay! I don't have an ultimate favorite yet but there are some good ones. Loving the original coaches.
  • There are way too many good shows starting Thursday. Not only do I watch Grey's and Parenthood, I also want to watch the new Michael J Fox show. Looks funny.
  • I finally sat and watched the movies Bridesmaids from beginning to end and it was terrible. I'd seen bits and pieces of it but never he whole thing. Just terrible.
  • Little guy has pretty much outgrown his newborn clothes but only in length. His 3 month stuff is so baggy on him. So different from his sister.
  • I can't wait to start planning all of our trips to fall festivals this year. 
  • I also can't wait to get my fall decorations out. Now just to find the time.
  • I'm a little freaked out that Baby Girl can reach things on the kitchen counters now. How did she get so big?

    I have the same problem on Thursdays! Not sure how I'm going to be able to watch it all. Also have the same issue with my little one, she'll be two on 11/2. She's into everything now! I can't hide anything anymore because now she can reach, and what she can't reach she climbs to get! It's making me nuts!!!

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...
