I am sad to hear about the PF Q! I haven't even done the deal at T, and mine has it. I was waiting until this weekend when I could bring J with me, so I didn't have to take both little girls by myself. Oh well.
I hope your day gets a little better.
Mine were like yours..very eager to help. When my daughter was a baby, I gave her brother 'grown' up jobs he could do to help me out. Get the diapers, pick out a book for us to read while I was nursing, etc, etc. It helped some. Hugs!
Is it normal for your babies to spit up so much? I guess it's weird for me because mine so rarely spit up - only if they are over-full.
And what is up with the PF q??
Haven't tried the recipe before, can't wait to taste-test!
Thanks, and that is a great idea on the photo books. I only have one but I will have to look for a deal and order another copy!
I think it came out super! I'm envious. I'm glad you are here with us today!!!
I am hoping to set up YS this afternoon after the kids get done school, then go over to the FM tommorrow and sunday - should be a busy busy weekend! But I am just getting too excited to get outta here.
insert :peeing my pants funny: smilie
What does this mean? You bought a house long distance? Like flew on a plane to your new city, found a house, then got back on the plane to come home and pack? If so, where/when/how did you do the closing?
If you have any suggestions on make up I would love to hear them, I have pretty much stopped wearing it...:mad :
Speaking of baths, I have to give Lily one every day! I have NEVER had to give a newborn a bath everyday! So weird! She just smells so yucky from all the spit up, that I can't stand it and I bathe her. Weird little girl! :lo l:

And I am so glad to hear of another mommy who doesn't bathe their baby every night! If you go by all the baby books, it seems like you're a poor parent if you don't bathe them daily.

:hug : Awwww, I I think I would have done the same thing.
Survived the kindergarten trip to Chuck E Cheese. Barely.
Home now, the kids are grabbing a little nap, and I am putting off my to-do list...
Keep an eye out at your grocery stores, because I've seen $4 peelies on PF even this week. Not as good as $5, but pretty close!
Did you guys see over on PF's FB page where they are saying those mq's never should have been combined with ANY other offer INCLUDING *sales*, GC deals, etc?!
Went to T and used some Qs. Came home and saw PF is whining about their Q over on FB. More idiots. I swear, they are everywhere today.

Yes my kids do spit up a lot. Sophia was colicky and has GERD. She was on Prevacid when she was younger and is now on Zantac. She was ALWAYS sitting up TONS! Poor girl!
Lily started spitting up more and more and she was fussier last week. I broke down and called the dr on Sat night (luckily he was on call) and we talked about ways to help reduce her chances of spitting up. Then we discussed her getting on Zantac to help with her discomfort. So she has been on Zantac since last Saturday. We are trying it for a week, stopping for a few days and see how she reacts to it all. So far I have noticed less fussiness since starting the Zantac, so we will see if she gets worse when I stop it.
What really scares me about Lily is sometimes she chokes on the spit up. Sometimes its just fresh milk and sometimes its curdled. Often it comes through her nose as well as her mouth. For these reasons, she sleeps on me or RIGHT next to me, even at night. The dr knows how she is sleeping and he is ok with it. She is starting to sleep in her bouncer or swing some during the day, which is a nice break, but I am not ready for her to be away from me at night!
PF pulled their Q. They are now saying it was used incorrectly bc they weren't supposed to be used on sales, bc the Q states 'not valid with other offers.'
:nod : Yep, I have an ABI from lack of O2 when I had an anaphylactic reaction to bananas. Was apparently not breathing when I entered the ER via ambulance....this I have never really understood, because it seems like they could have done something in transit to take care of that but I have no clue :dontknow : I remember none of most of that day, eating whatever I ate, or anything after that. After a week in ICU and being near-death more than once I am happy to be alive. Did inpatient/outpatient rehab, still live with some effects of it, most unnoticeable to other people though. For the most part have found new 'normal' but I don't think you're ever the 'same' after something like that in more ways than one.
Geez and I wonder why dd has taken this peanut allergy so well? She has lived with this all of her live. Above event happened when she was 6 mos. old. When she sees a banana or you ask her what she thinks about bananas she says, "EEEWWWWWWWWW!!!!" We of course can't have 'em in the house at all.
What happened to you Ariel? If ya don't mind me asking : O
:hug : Awwww, I I think I would have done the same thing. : comfort:
WOW!! That is quite the traumatic experience! I am so happy that you are still here!!
I hope your day gets a little better.
Mine were like yours..very eager to help. When my daughter was a baby, I gave her brother 'grown' up jobs he could do to help me out. Get the diapers, pick out a book for us to read while I was nursing, etc, etc. It helped some. Hugs!
I have been having her do some things like the getting the diapers and throwing them out (she LOVES this job), draining the bath tub after we do her bath, ect. I hadn't thought about reading to her while I was nursing! That is a GREAT idea!! Thanks hun!!!

1) allergies i.e. skin rashes to fragrance, watering eyes, itchy nose, sniffles that sort of thing - look for the words Parfum or Fragrance in products and don't use those. the allergy is likely not to the fragrance itself but one of the chemicals used to put fragrances in products. for example lots of people have become aware of parabens and avoid em. However all artificial fragrances need/use methylparaben and or propyl- and butylparaben. So many manufacturers are not specifically listing the parabens separately if they're included in the fragrance compounding cos US law allows them to just say fragrance. sucks, since parabens are so toxic to human health.
2) fragrance/smell sensitivities to particular smells - i.e. headaches, nausea, migraines. it is generally things along a certain "note" that will be bothersome, because those are indicative of particular organic molecules (as in organic chemistry, not organic food). those with fragrance sensitivities usually find lavender very bothersome. it's a common trait. it gives me migraines. ditto patchouli. and eucalyptus. pretty much anything with a strong "powdery note" bothers me - lavender and patchouli fall right in that. with natural/organic products, it may say "fragrance free" and all that means is that it doesn't have any artificial fragrances. but many are still heavily scented with essential oils, some of which can be very irritating to those with fragrance sensitivities. so always get a sample and try a small dot on your wrist or neck and see if after a little while the scent is cloying/starting to get you nauseous/dizzy/short of breath or giving you a headache.
finally if you're starting to find yourself becoming allergic/sensitive to different chemicals/particulate matter (pollen, dander, dust etc), look into getting air purifiers for the the rooms where you spend the most time (bedroom and kitchen and family room or some configuration like that). you can even get an insurance subsidy for that, and definitely a tax write-off if an allergist recommends it for you.
the better quality ones also filter out chemical molecules because many of the chemicals that you find in these cosmetics are also in your house paint, your mattress, your sheets, your cell phone, any fiber/pressedboard furniture you may have like that from ikea, your laptop, all plastics in your house. which means, though you are unaware, you are constantly breathing in and absorbing some of these very toxic chemicals and they are in your bloodstream.
look for true HEPA air purifiers with the chemical filtering capability. amazon has em for 200 bucks each or slightly under. the more you're exposed to the allergens, over time the more intense your allergic reaction will become and there's no turning that back, so you want to eliminate sources of exposure, rather than living with them. I know of people who've gradually developed something called "multiple chemical sensitivities" or MCS. and that royally sucks.
I think you have a brilliant mind.
Let us know how you make out at the doctors today. Will be thinking of you.
doc appt (thanks for asking and thinking of me):
he wants a chest CT. so yet another scan soon.
have fever and dry cough. he thinks it's from not being able to breathe deep, but CT should show more.
did bunch of bloodwork.
wrote me PT referral.
he thinks i'm developing a nerve hypersensitivity (some injured areas can't stand to be touched, even the slightest brush of a sheet or pajama is super painful).and might need work on that at a rehab hospital.
he's concerned about knee not extending because after all these months my tendons have likely contracted and if PT can't help me extend those out completely, I would end up with a permanently bent knee and a hobbled gait for life.
how delightful.
oh and, i have put on 40 pounds since the accident according to the doc's office today.
that is all.
...
i agree with the others - release him. and be very nice about it.
Why are kids so stinking adorable??
how are you feeling now?
....
I won't be coming along I guess, cos I wouldn't be able to resist eating those.
Thinking about you greenie and Hope we hear nice outcome of today's visit…
I tried Dr. Bonners castile soap.. though it is ok, but not nice and didn't leave a clean feeling… If you come across any nice hair shampoo and conditioner please let us know. I am looking for one high and low.. I am loosing lots of hair, especially in my forehead and I really don't want to go bald
really, you didn't like Bronners? it's the cleanest (and most moisturized with a body wash) i've ever felt.
then again sis tried it and said she felt very clean but not as moisturized, so she wasn't thrilled about that. I used to use Dove Nutrium Moisture Body Wash before. It is very moisturizing and thick and creamy, but I got allergic to the smell.
so different, each of us. goes to show, all these personal care products, are such an individual thing. there's no one good recommendation.
that being said, I will definitely report back on shampoo/cond.
by the way the hair loss - happened to a friend of mine after her first pregnancy and more after the second. she now regularly loses hair. talk to your doc about that - it's can be a hormonal thing, and can often be a sign of thyroid issues.
i would scream instinctively too if that happened. and i'm not a screaming, panicking kind of person at all, but some things i think just bring out a visceral reaction - it's your protective momma instinct.
And I am so glad to hear of another mommy who doesn't bathe their baby every night! If you go by all the baby books, it seems like you're a poor parent if you don't bathe them daily. :shake :

I have read the same and I always thought ppl were
Oh thanks for posting about the $4 peelies! I saw some of them at RA a while ago, but didn't think I would need them since we have the $5 one, guess I will check out RA soon!

Went to T and used some Qs. Came home and saw PF is whining about their Q over on FB. More idiots. I swear, they are everywhere today.
Somebody posted a Tracfone code for 200 bonus minutes on a 60 minute card so I added that to my phone. I had just added time a while back with a good code, but that was too good to pass up. Especially since we will actually use some minutes this week.
I'm pretty well packed and mostly loaded. Waiting for those last minute towels to finish drying. I'll probably head to town in a half hour or so. Give me time to stop at the store before the chiro that way I can get back home.

But maybe that would help with the spit up and tummy trouble.
And phooey on the PF coupons. Grr.
Don't most/all coupons say that they can't be redeemed with another offer? I thought that wording was put in there because back in the day there were no restrictions and folks would use like 10 of the same coupons on 1 item.
If other manufacturers take the same stance, I see a huge change in purchasing coming. *I* won't be buying a lot of things because a lot of things just aren't "needs" - and make up is DEFINITELY one of those un-needed things in this house!
