Seems its getting harder and harder to actually get a few minutes to post an update. The ladybug likes to change things up, feed every 3 hours one day, then the next decide to take a 4 hour nap and then eat every 1 hour.
My boobs love it.
Let's see, i had my 6 week post partem appt this week - all is well, healing nicely etc. Except for the bit of suture that decided not to dissolve which was a bit irritating. But its been removed and I've been given the okay for S.E.X. haha. right. that's a whole OTHER conversation
We also ended up taking Ducky to the doctor because she bubbles at the mouth all the time, especially during and after feedings and sometimes she makes these squeals that just breaks your heart. I had to find out if she had reflux and if there was anything we could do about it.
The doc checked her out said it was normal, that unless it gets worse she'd rather stay away from giving her any meds like prevacid or peptid AC. I agree but also hate the thought of her being so agitated all the time. She's got her 2 month appt in 2 weeks so we'll approach the subject again then.
On the bright side they weighed her and she is a whopping 8lbs 13 oz!!! Which means some of her NB sized outfits are going into storage. I tell you these clothing companies, they start messing with our heads at an early age, no rhyme or reason to their sizing. No wonder women are so effed in the head about what size they wear!
She also said that we could stop her middle of the night feeding, if she doesn't wake up for it by herself. Talk about music to my ears, i can get 4-5 hours of sleep in a row! I am game. Of course my boobs aren't used to this so I still have to wake up and empty out a little each night, waking 1/2 hour later every couple of days to release the engorgment pressure and prevent clogged ducts and wean myself from that feeding. I'm not complaining though. It's been a while since i've been in REM.
