    @karen_thinmint oh you're here! That means you had your baby! I'm going to go check for updates in the pregnancy group, but how are you doing? Feeling? How's the baby raising going?

    @VeryKatie - 4 wks pp and feeling mostly back to normal. Baby was born early but she's doing great. My stomach being sensitive is the last hurdle but much better than it was.

    How are my babies already 7 weeks old!? I packed up their newborn clothes and definitely cried.

    Currently eating 2300 calories a day without exercise.

    @VeryKatie I know how you feel. Mine will be 6 weeks soon. Granted we're packing up Preemie in another week. We're almost 7lbs!

    I've been very inconsistent in both tracking and quality of food. Although with the warmer weather we've been walking together the last couple days which has been nice to get some fresh air. I lost a lot of strength, l have come to realize from the walks. Will have to slowly build that back.

    Looks like I've started to leveled off. However I'm starting back up (like with my last two) a dairy/soy free diet to help with her protein sensitivity issues. This may or may not increase the drop, or stall me out more. My nursing cravings are starting in recently too as my stomach feels almost back to normal. I'm going to try to start logging consistently to help keep up a slow and stay loss.

    So... calorie counting seems to legit made me hungrier. I might need to go with the Intuitive+nap trapped method lol.

    @karen_thinmint is baby having signs of allergies? That's so hard. My babies seem to be OK now. One had/has GERD but my Dr suggested cutting hit feeds off a short over night when he is flat and that simple trick has helped so much.

    @VeryKatie the dairy elimination has helped with her gas and surprisingly cleared her baby acne. But her heartburn has gotten worse, all the tricks haven't worked so she is starting something from the dr to ease her pain and stop the spitups/throwups. But she's still kept putting on weight - so I'm grateful for that.

Everyone has pink eye. All our baby swings broke. Thank goodness my parents were able to come over for a few days! Oh and I have a clogged duct again that didn't clear all night even nursing twins on it.

    My dairy/soy free is ongoing and very boring and annoying. But it was slipped in my food and she reacted, so confirmed it is worth it.

    I've plateaued around 167 so I've stopped checking my weight as much. But I wanted to see if meal planning helps my rut (both in weight and diet boredum)
