Learning How The World Works


Nuvaring

So I know this is a weird subject to talk about, but my birth control hasn’t been really effective (I’ve had a lot of breakthrough bleeding and such). So I called my doctor and he said to try Nuvaring. At first I was like “There is no way I’m sticking something up there for 3 weeks then taking it out. Ew.” But so far, I like it. I don’t have to worry about taking a pill every morning. I don’t feel anything. It’s nice. The only downfall is that it could possibly slip out during sex (which I’m not really having any at the moment haha). So I have no worries about it now. I will cross that bridge when it comes.

On to other news…nothing much has been happening lately. M and I are…well, trying to work it out. Who knows. He has shown some change recently, so that’s good. But I’m not keeping my hopes up. I just don’t want to be let down again.

Lil P has been really fussy lately and he hasn’t been sleeping well at all. It’s taking a real toll on me.  But at least he is good when he is up (for the most part) so I don’t get too frustrated.

I have a secret. I can’t tell though. It’s driving me crazy. I think I”m going to keep this one to myself though. At least for now :-X

Fat Free Milk

I used to not be able to drink fat free milk. Now it comes as a second nature. It’s weird how that happens. Our tastebuds supposedley change every 7 years. I am starting to believe its true. In other news…Lil P has some new toys. Check it out…

I love his outfit in this picture too. It’s so cute. I picked it out at a cosignment shop. Those places actually have decent stuff. They sort of smell like mold though haha. I made sure to wash everything before I let him wear it.

Hmm…what else has been going on. Yesterday was July 4th, but it rained ALL day so I didn’t really celebrate. M and I went to Charlestown Races and Slots and I won $100.00 on a slot machine. That happens every single time I go there. It’s actually kind of weird. It’s always a hundred dollars and it’s usually on one of the two machines that I like to play. I like watching the horses run, but I don’t bet because I always lose.

Right now P is in his crib. I’m trying to make a set bedtime for him around 9:30. Usually he is drinking or finishing a bottle around that time. Normally he goes to bed between 9pm and 11pm. He will normally sleep until at least 8am. So that’s not too bad. I get my sleep and he gets his.

We just started feeding him baby foods a few days ago. He gets about 1/2 of a Gerber container at a time. He is pretty good with the spoon. I will start mixing a little rice into his baby food since he doesn’t like the taste of it too much. Hopefully he will be eating baby cereal soon by itself.

Well, that’s about it for this update. I’m going to the doctor this coming Friday at 8:45am. I am going to have her check  my thyroid because lately I’ve been extremely moody, irritable, extremely tired, and I have weird appetite changes. Hopefully that is what’s wrong and it’s nothing too serious. Ta-ta for now!
