Day Two and I’m Already Panicky
I was going to post pictures of the delightful “hamburgers” I made for Father’s Day using a Bakerella recipe. However, my camera is ALL THE WAY in my room and I’m ALL THE WAY in the living room. I think we can all agree that’s simply too much effort on my part. You will have to wait until I’m not quite so effing lazy tomorrow.
The Workplace sitch has settled down some, but is still unacceptable. I’m taking each day as it comes and trying not to get too wrapped up in the future. So far it’s helping. Well, that and the z0loft, but whatev.
Future baby plans are in the works. And by that, I mean I’m planning and talking about it non-stop and Gerald just sort of avoids it like the plague. That bodes well, right? Anyhow, I’m “legally” able to get pregnant next month as I’ll be one year post-op from my bypass, but I’ve got to wean off of the aforementioned z0loft before any baby-making attempts can be made. Apparently, modern science has not found a way to make anti-crazy pills safe for pregnant women. I’m thinking they need to be working on that. I’m at my all time Crazy High when pregnant or post-partum. I’m hoping to be able to nurse the next baby since I didn’t have the chance to nurse Maddie, but if Teh Crazys are as bad as it was last go ’round, then I’m all for going with formula and a side of z0loft for Mommy.
In regard to my eating habits, I’m happy to report that today was a good day. I haven’t eaten anything “bad” or had anything in excess. To be honest, though, that’s fairly typical of any work day. I sort of fall apart between Maddie’s bedtime and my bedtime. Here’s hoping that I’m strong tonight.

I fall apart that time of night too. So happy to hear about your future baby plans. So exciting!

I KNOW. Who needs mood medication more than pregnant/postpartum people? (Almost) NO ONE, THAT’S WHO.

Get this book: http://www.ibreastfeeding.com/. There are medications that are safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding. This book will tell you just which ones are safer than others. It’s so worth it.
peace…

Before I got pregnant with Aiden I was taking Wellbutrin XL and I was a little worried about how crazy I would become with a lack of chemical assistance. But my doc told me that you CAN take Wellbutrin while pregnant. I opted not to take the drugs and was only slightly crazy for 250+days.
BTW, my I am in desperate need to get motivated, perhaps we should chat on Monday about giving each other a little nudge at least three days a week??
McClendon Out…
Sorry I just wanted to see how that sounded alas some things are better left unsaid.
See Ya

Wow, I cannot believe you’re so close to a year post-op. Does it seem like that long to you?

Um, Zoloft is one of the most tested drugs during pregnancy, they’ve tested kids of mom’s who took it all the way to elementary school with no issues seen. It was the drug of choice should I have needed it. I would question that little bit of info should you be getting it from anyone other than an OB. Mine was the most knowledgeable one on the subject.
