Week 3

So I have been a mommy now for three weeks. I have to say, things are going pretty well. Amy is sleeping a few hours at a time in the night and is getting used to sleeping in her bassinet. (Thank God!) Also, breast feeding is going great. I feel like I am nursing all the time, but at this stage in the game, that is what is supposed to be going on. She is even getting a little chunky. :)

I am getting used to having her around. I am just getting the hang of getting her off the boob and into a bouncy seat without waking her up. So I should be able to get a bit more done around the house. I know my DH will be happy about that!

My incision is getting better...there is a spot on the end that is still open even though the doctor cauterized it. I am going to have my DH take a look at it when he gets home tonight or in the morning though. I can see a spot in it that is not red like my flesh, kinda is white or green. (hard to see myself!) So I am hoping it's not getting a little infected. I may put some peroxide on it before bed to see if that helps.

Right now Amy is asleep. I gave her a bath with lavender stuff in it, the boob and stuck her in bed. I hope she says asleep for a while!!

That's it for now. I am going to go lay down. Here are some more pictures!!

I love being a mom!

So this is day 11, and things are going pretty well. We are getting great at breast feeding! Her weight went up past her birth weight! Go boobies!! She is sleeping pretty well at night time, gets up every two hours or so. I am not doing as well as she is, my incision from the c-section is infected. I am going to the doctor today to get that looked at. I hope it's noting too serious.

Amy had her first bath today, and she seemed to like it! She didn't cry until we were out of the tub, and I was getting her dressed. And I think the only reason why she did that was because she was getting cold. :)


Well, as promised, here are more pics!

I had my little girl!

Not much time to post, I need to go feed her, but dilivery was by a c-section. (not planed) but she is healthy and I am now too, I will post the story later though. Here are some pics to hold you over!! More to come soon!

39 weeks 5 days

So at the doctor's office today I was 2 cm dilated and 80% effaced. She thinks I may go into labor before I have my next appointment on Tuesday. I hope I do!!!
