I came home with prescriptions in hand...and never had to fill them. Just used ibuprofen for a day or two.
My belly has shrunk almost entirely. Its squishy amd I have a muffen top, but I can fit and button up my jeans. Even my legs and arms seem so much smaller. That's been a confidence boost. I can bend and shave my legs again!!
I have not had one moment of post partum, not even baby blues.I have cried a few times when trying to nurse and she decides to be a little pill and not latch on, I feel like a failure as mother, but we are not giving up yet!
Its pretty hard to do house work with a newborn baby. I have kept up on it, but I'm astonished at how much clutter and things happen with a baby.
I've been tired, but I've survived. Most of the time I just eat up every moment I can to be with her. I know I'll be going back to work and I don't want to take one single moment for granted.
Time is already going way to fast.
I can hug and kiss my husband again!! It was so hard with a huge belly.
I've been pumping. Its painful, but my supply has increased and I'd do anything sacrifice everything to give to her what I can.
My appetite is back!
I feel like me again.
During pregnancy I made James consider getting surgery. Not really, but I really wasnt sure I could do tjat ovrer again.I was soooo sick and so depressed and so anxious. Oh my goodness.
Having spent 8 days with this sweet girl I now know that 9 months is a small sacarfice in the long run. I could totally do this again and I hope I can. Not for a while of course. I'm eating her up for now.
My favorite thing to do is to lye her chest on mine. She feels my heart beat. I feel her breathing. I kiss her head and smell her yummy baby smell. Its like I'm pregnant with her again... One body. But this time the bond is so much stronger.
I love being a mom! It truly rocks!!!
