My LO is 4 weeks old! I know it’s a cliche, but time has gone by so fast! We’re figuring out how to breastfeed together. The first two weeks were terrible. Cracked and bleeding breasts- OW! But, now it’s going pretty good, and we seem to be getting better each week. I’ve pumped a few times, so DH was able to feed her for the first time last night. He had a blast! It was really cute. She has some baby acne and dry skin, but otherwise, she seems to be healthy and happy. She eating, sleeping, pooping, and gaining weight. I couldn’t be happier.
I’m adjusting slowly to not being pregnant. Recovering from a C-section was thankfully uneventful. I’ve got huge breasts (40F!!!) and a big jelly belly, so I feel a little self conscious. I’m having a hard time finding clothes that make me feel good about myself, so I might have to venture out to find a few outfits. I’ve been walking, and yesterday I did my pilates routine for the first time in months. I am out of shape, but I didn’t hurt myself. I’ll just keep it up, and hopefully it won’t take too long for my strength to come back!
