My teeth are what's making that awful sound, BTW.

I've had it up to HERE, today. I'm so pissed about everything. "What happened?" you say? Let me tell you.

Hi Kim. Oh, the trials and tribulations of being a mother. Yeah. Sorry about Logan's head. I know you'll do what you have to do. In the end, it always turns out okay. Really. (And then there'll be something else, no doubt.) Okay. I'm not helping, am I?

By the way, about your neck pain. Are you carrying Logan around in the carrier? I used to do that (of course). Just saw another mother doing that last Saturday. Baby in carrier in one hand, bags in the other. Reminded me of how I got a strained shoulder and tendonitis as well. I thought I had torn a muscle actually, but no. I will bet you that gold bar it is strain from carrying the baby carrier. It is impossible to say to try to avoid it for a while, but perhaps using the stroller a little more even if it is a pain in the butt to do so, at least for a while, may help.

(Hope otherwise you are doing okay.)

Oh, you know you're always a help! It *will* be okay, won't it? *deep breath* Yeah, it will.

Actually, I don't carry him in it. Hubby does. (Ha!) Either I have him in the stroller, or in the Snugli...but we've not gone anywhere this week. Your comment did get me thinking, though. Perhaps it's due to me always having to hold him. Wait--that sounds bad. I LOVE holding my child, it's just that Hubby picks him up from MiL's house, then sits in here with me until I get off work. As soon as I'm done, Logan's in my arms until I go to bed. Hubby rarely takes him off my hands. Probable, then, that my neck pain could be related to the stress on my arms and shoulders *that* way? Hmmm.

Oh, and I AM doing well otherwise. :-D

Good. I am glad you are doing well otherwise. And I didn't believe the doctor when he told me it was strain and tendonitis from carrying the carrier. Haha. I said, I've been doing this for months! It probably is from holding and carrying Logan around. I'm sure he is getting heavier too. There is no way you can -- or would want to -- stop that, though! (I have to keep reminding myself it will get better, too. It will. Things never stay the same.)

[goblynn]

Oh, that's right--I forgot to mention. He weighed in at SIXTEEN pounds yesterday (four month check).

And I wonder why my neck hurts? Well, duh!

[wandlimb]

It sounds like an awful day. I hope things get better soon. *hugs*

[goblynn]

They will. Thanks for the *hugs*--I always feel better afterwards.

Wow. That really, REALLY sucks, Kimmie. I'm so very sorry. Your baby is perfect and beautiful, and I'm positive that you're a wonderful mother. You love him too much to be otherwise.

Sorry about the literal pain in your neck. And you can't even take the good stuff! Poor baby! Big cyberhugs to you. Feel better soon.

And good luck with the job situation. I think they should be a little more lenient with you, especially since you've been pregnant and all. I hope you find a better job. Sheesh.

I love you, regardless!

He *is* beautiful, isn't he? *insert self-serving comment here
