Its been almost 3 weeks since I had javonte and i still feel like i just gave birth yesterday. My hips and thighs are in constant agony, I still cant sleep on a particular side for more than a half hour, and the swelling in my stomach isnt going down at all! To make it all worse my wisdom teeth are SWOLLEN and my mouth is killing me and I cant take anything for it because im BFing! My mom made me tea, she is really into the healing stuff and does EFT and all this other stuff, but the tea is so yucky i cant drink it without wanting to throw up... I dont know what to do I want to cry!!
On the bright side, Javonte is probably the best baby that I have had so far. He rarely cries, he sleeps a lot, and when he is awake he just looks at me. He smiles, poops and sleeps. LOL so its not so bad, I was extremely scared that he would be a crier and I would go full blast into PPD.

My other kids are starting to adjust, but the pain is making it hard for me to run after them all day and all night. Dh was good for about a week with helping out, but now he thinks i should be good so hes not helping as much. Not to mention hes starting to bug me for sex, and i dont get my tubes tied until the 13th.
AND our anniversary is on the 11th, and i know he is gonna want some. But I cant risk getting pregnant again, and with all the BC in the world my fertile behind (literally) will STILL get pregnant.
Sorry for the long post. I just needed to vent a lil bit. Im keeping myself occupied making scrapbooks and giftbaskets. But the pain is keeping me awake! Is there anything i can do that wont go through the breast milk but doesnt taste like poo?

As for your DH, tell him to get over it! You are the mother of 5 kids, and you are in pain!!!! You give out all day every day, and you have real concerns about BC before your tubal. If he can't wait a little longer I'd send him to the doghouse. Feel better mama!
