Hey! I'm Krystle. I'm 23 years old and live with my boyfriend Zach. We have an unbelievable daughter named Riley. She was born June 6th, 2008. She's amazing! We also have two cats Sadie and Zeus. I'm so grateful for finding this site while I was pregnant. If not I honestly don't think I could have survived!

Sunday, 22 June Colton is a PIG!! He eats all the time. He weighed 8 lb 5 oz at birth, 8 lb 3 oz at his first Dr. apt, and 2 days later I took him in for an eye infection, and he weighed 8lbs 7 oz. All he does is eat sleep and go to the bathroom.
I know what you mean about being spoiled at the hospital, I didn't want to leave. I could have stayed 1 more day, but my husband REALLY wanted us to go home. And my doctor said I could stay if I wanted, or go home.

Sunday, 22 June isnt it great to have good kids? lol. ive gone out every single day since ive been home from the hospital. i have stuff to do :P hah. shes never cried while weve been out yet. or in the car. my biggest worry is me driving and she starts crying. i cant do anything about it preciousangels2 -
Sunday, 22 June I let my hubby go out last Saturday. I had gotten home from the hospital Friday. At least he had waited until the kids were asleep before he asked. And he did ask! He just wanted to go to the shooting range for a little bit. He was gone for 2hrs at the most. But I had figured that since Sunday was Father's Day, I'd let him go without me bitching. Haha. I hate the baby tubs too. We just got one of the cheapo Wal-Mart ones for $5. We used one of the foam ones with Malachi when we went on vacation one year. It wasn't too bad but I like the kind we have now. I can't find it online so I'll just have to take a picture of it to show you, if you want. Cayden's stump area lol looks kinda gross still. It definitely doesn't look like a belly button. I don't remember what Malachi's looked like when it fell off though so I don't remember what's normal!! Ahhh! The things the forget in 3 years! preciousangels2 -
Sunday, 22 June Well, you still have a while to go to worry about potty training! Cayden had his first bath last night and it was great. Not one sound out of him. Today was alright. I haven't cried for no reason, yet. Ha, I wouldn't let my hubby go out either. cali.momma -
Sunday, 22 June hah. its weird not doing things for myself whenever i want to. like eating. i was like, okay she will eat, then ill make my salad lol. showers are a struggle. we live with my parents, and my mom works nights, so its fairly easy, but she has to have eaten right before i have it. i usually wait til daddy comes home :] when he comes home, shes allll his lol. we call it "daddy time" cali.momma -
Saturday, 21 June hah. i know, i was all anxious to get her weighed. i had a gut feeling she was eight pounds, my mom was like oh probably a few ounces less than eight, and my friend said the same. but i knew she was eight. and she was exactly hah. i know, its so hard to figure these little ones out! she always seems unsatisfied with how much food shes getting. the other day she ate 5 ounces, then she was happy. and she didnt even spit any of it up. and she had only gone 3 hours without eating. shes not fat or anything, why the hell would she eat 5 freakin ounces?! hah. i pump til i dont have anymore coming out. they say to do that because the back milk has the most fat. i only get about 2 to 3 ounces at a time. so she gets about 50 to 75% of formula because she loves her food hah kstar08 -
Saturday, 21 June hey lady:) lol u wrote me the same day i had my son :D but hes here...had him by csection, wasnt that bad the 2nd time around, actually was nowhere near as bad as the first time cuz i wasnt as scared...but im doin ok, tryin to recover n rest when i can...

Saturday, 21 June Hi! It's finally going to be my turn! (41 weeks tomorrow) I'm to be induced on Monday so baby will be here by Monday or Tuesday at the latest (if he doesn't pop out before then). It's getting exciting!!! Can't wait to meet him (and every time I think of that I get all teary-eyed!) I won't be able to share my birth story and photos til my week long hospital stay is over though. cali.momma -
Saturday, 21 June she doesnt like being held?? oh youre so lucky! hah. olivia loves being held, but she doesnt mind being down. but she does sometimes cry to be held, which im okay with. i want to hold her at the wrong times. when i want to hold her shes asleep and time for me to go to bed. its irritating! hah. i hate pumping too, but its sooo worth it! she had her check up today. she weighs eight pounds even now. so, she gained one pound exactly after she lost weight. nmck -
Saturday, 21 June I know what you mean about the stomach size. There is no way that can be true! And you are so lucky to not have an appetite. I did not have one through much of my pregnancy and actually lost weight. No one told me having a baby would increase my chocolate cravings so much! You are gonna be a hot momma really quickly! grapefruitjuice -
Saturday, 21 June hell i dont feel better, i am going back to the ER per my mw's demand as soon as my man gets home. the stupid keflex antibiotics arent working, it hurts even worse today :( i think it is from my sun not emptying my breasts at feedings fully. he has lately been having greenish poo's which indicates more foremilk than hindmilk is being consumed, hence, not empty boobies. ugh. preciousangels2 -
Saturday, 21 June There are days when he'll do really great and then days when he could just care less about using the toilet. Kinda drives me crazy. I remember when he was teething and he was really great. Never got fussy or anything. He was actually a really easy, quiet baby. He wouldn't even cry when he got shots. mplsmama -
Friday, 20 June Hey there, I was totally laughing when I read your story about the poop even getting on the closet door! What have our lives become? 
I was supplementing Maisie w/ breast milk, but they had us stop the supplements b/c she was gaining enough. I would juust pump for 10 minutes at the end of feedings, a few times a day. I seem to have a ton of milk. I missed a feeding last night (Dan bottle fed her) and I pumped this morning & I got 5 oz! I couldn't believe it. I feel like a milk machine.
Maisie had a really rough night last night. Woke up about every hour. She still seems to have her days & nights mixed up. But the weird thing is that it's different every day... b/c there have been a few nights when she slept for 5 hrs at a time! I don't get it. I can't get to get this kid on a schedule, but then again she's only 3 wks old!
The little kiddo is waking now so I guess I better go get her! Hope you're well! kelliepace -
Friday, 20 June My csection was.... well now that its over and I think about it... not that bad. lol. It sucked alot the first few days but I have been motivated to feel better by the newly found realization that IM NOT PREGNANT ANYMORE. When I went to the pediatricians (even though I couldnt walk) no one noticed me and it was the best feeling ever. I was just me and not the pregnant girl! Now all I want to do is wear normal clothes and go out to eat and have a margarita and be myself again!! I still hurt if I do too much though and they had to knock me out after they got him out because I could feel them cauterize me and jerk stuff around and it really hurt! Oh well daddy and I are having a good time because he sleeps so much at night and it keeps me feeling good. How are you!?!??!? and daddy?! proudmama27 -
Friday, 20 June I went some of everywhere to get my pink and brown stuff. Since this pic ive gotten more. The set actually came from walmart online:) Glad you like it nmck -
Thursday, 19 June Good for you! Remember I was 5 weeks into my recovery when Michael came home. For the first few weeks my walks were just in the hospital to visit him. I know exactly the pinching feeling you mean. Don't overdo it!! I also know how good it feels to just get dressed again too. Now I make sure I get dressed every day even if we don't have plans. grapefruitjuice -
Thursday, 19 June ouch is right!!! there are a number of causes for mastitis, a few are not draining the breast fully (multiple times), not enough water can add to the problem, wired bras or too tight bras, not changing moist breast pads often enough (wet hot environment breeds bacteria), stress and serious lack of sleep, if the baby has thrush you can get a yeast mastitis, low immune system, even if someone in the family has flu or contagious illness, it can manifest in nursing moms as mastitis (boo on that!!!). mastitis is a bacterial infection in your milk ducts (it does NOT contaminate the milk, so dont worry!), that can be resolved with a conjunction of antibiotics, good nursing habits (turning babys chin toward blockage, thats the point of strongest suck on a lil un) pumping, heat application. theres loads you can do! symptoms of clogged duct are: tender sore lump(s) in the breast. it would not be accompanied by fever or other symptoms. best you can do is massage the area where the clog is, apply heat and nursenursenurse! mastitis symptoms: same as clogged ducts, add fever, chills, flu-like symptoms, nausea, achiness, vomiting, discharge not milk from breast, red /pink color over painful area, and hot to the touch. you gotta get treatment for a mastitis problem, or it can turn into a breast abcess, which is MAJOR yuck, you would have to have an incision made in the breast, and have the abcess drained. i am sooo glad i didnt let it go and went to the ER!!! sorry i babbled on, but hey, thats how i roll :P lilgracie -
Thursday, 19 June Well Gracie has gone a 1/2 lb past her birthweight and the doc thinks she's fine. She even says that she doesn't have to have soy formula (which is AWESOME because we have a loooot of regular formula that was going to go to waste and that stuff is wicked expensive). Doc thinks she just has eyes bigger than her baby stomach and wants to eat more than she can handle. She said to feed her a little less and let her fuss for a minute before going back to sleep. And that if she really IS still hungry she'll let us know. jcody777 -
Thursday, 19 June You SOOOO don't look like a beached whale!!
The first nurse that had him in the nursery after he was born did the faux hawk, we liked it so tried to keep doing it to him. It is harder than it looks to recreate!!
The part I hated about the csection was not being able to get out of bed to grab my son & hold him, or jump out of bed when he started crying. I felt SO helpless!! And the first time I went pee OMG, it was horrible!! The numb part didn't bother me, it was weird, but it didn't bother me.
Colton lost 2 oz for his first docotrs apt, what about riley?
Yeah, the bleeding sucks, I thought I would be done by now too, the nurses told me the more you try to do, the more you will bleed. So you may be over doing it. I know I am.
How about your damn emotions, I am fine, and then puff, I cry for no reason. Th nurses said with a c-sections your hormones kind of hit you hard. I don't have post pardum depression, but I have been a bit emotional if someone looks at me wrong.
Breast feeding is great, but 1 of my nipples kills me, it feels like pins & needles the first 30 seconds, then it goes away. How is it for you? rochelle -
Thursday, 19 June HE GRUNTS ALL THE TIME!!! Ya I know what you mean Camden only does 3 hours tops and sometimes its 2.5 hes drinking 4 oz at night though! I have no idea how he does it...well I am off to his Dr. apt. I wonder if hes back up to his birth weight I will let you know, by the way what is rylie at now? preciousangels2 -
Thursday, 19 June Yup, Malachi just turned 3 on May 31st. So far 3 is the same as 2 except he talks more and things like that. He understands more. He's awesome with Cayden though which is a huge relief. I was hoping that he would be potty trained by the time Cayden was born but that hasn't happened yet. cali.momma -
Thursday, 19 June its been weird the past few days. she went from only breastmilk, to both formula and breastmilk, then only formula, then only breastmilk. poor kid has to put up with me. hah. i dont want to do formula really. it hurts her tummy. but until then, she was the pooping champ, i swear hah. now its nada. but she pees like every 30 to 45 mins hah. preciousangels2 -
Thursday, 19 June Yeah, only 22lbs this pregnancy but 80lbs the last time! Yuck! LOL At least you've only got about 13lbs to lose! I'm finally now eating my first thing of the day. Everyday I haven't been eating until at least 12:30pm. Even then all I eat is lunch and then dinner. I usually do have a snack sometime during the day though. I hate how fast time goes by too. My little man will be 10days old tomorrow. He's getting circumsized on Tuesday. I feel so bad but I know it'll be fine. My first was circumsized too. I just really hope that my hubby can go with me. I don't know how I'll manage with Malachi and Cayden. Malachi runs ALL over the place and I can't chase him when I have Cayden. cali.momma -
