DAZEY_iz_Well's Dagbog, 22 aug 24

You’re getting so close to your due date! I delivered in week 36 day 5 to my one and only son. He weighed 6 lbs but had to be in the NICU for a week due to his lungs not being fully developed yet. Good luck to you, sounds like all is well!! 💜 

You are doing great!  

Good luck at the apt, Daze! So amazing that you’re still running around and taking care of your kiddies at this stage - kudos to you, mama! 

Considering putting tubes in his ear. No hearing loss detected, but fluid build up could be causing some loss when it's higher, especially in fall/winter.  

Stern, yes!! 3-5 weeks essentially left. I took today off from school.  

Tish/Cheese: thank you! Doing my best here. I know there will come a week where movement will be really difficult, so doing what I can while I still can.  

Yes, I remember once the babies came, I was stuck to the couch for most of the day. You got this!! 

Yes!! 👍🏽 I'm planning to sleep as much as possible after baby is here. Lol baby sleeps, I sleep is my plan. 😂 

Get a comfy baby carrier. Having a baby strapped to your body while doing everyday chores will burn more calories and you'll build endurance as they grow. My baby (now 25 yrs) always wanted to be held. 

Good idea we have one saved from when youngest (turns 5 on Monday) was an infant. Though, i couldn't carry/wear him cuz I had 2 herniated discs each in my neck and low back post car accident. 

Sorry to hear that. When I couldn't hold her I would put her in the baby "seat" on the counter/table (safely while I was right next to her). I could dance around & move freely either to do "walk at home" videos or food prep. Then when she could sit up, the high chair. She didn't fuss as much when she was right near me & closer to my face. I haven't taken care of myself in years now and menopause caused my weight to explode, so I just joined hoping to get control of my life. 

Wildly- welcome to FatSecret! Hope you enjoy it here! It's a great community! Hope you find a what works for you to lose the weight! So many testimonials here from a variety of people with different backgrounds. 😁  

Thank you Dazey. I do so much better when I track and have support. It's going to take me a while to get in the groove. Right now my diet is a free-for-all. Lol. I'm a stress/emotional/ all occasion eater and I have to get that under control.  

Dazey - the day is approaching and I remember you saying that you might go into labor sooner than anticipated.. I just wanted to wish you an easy delivery! I think your pregnancy has been beautiful, you accomplished a lot and you are still staying busy. Take care, and congratulations on building a beautiful family. I hope your little scientist’s hearing gets sorted out soon. 

Thank you so much Yfritz!! I hope so too. 3 weeks left at a minimum! I did my best to stay active and gain appropriate amount of weight. So far so good. He still failed one test in his right ear so we will go back so for a follow up!
