Sleep
Sleep is something that you learn to live without. My precious little girl has her nights and days mixed up. The night before last she was awake from 2:45am until 5am. and last night she was up every two hours on the dot. She finished her last feeding at 9am this morning and now she's still sleeping and she more than likely wont get up to eat again until about two then sleep and eat again around 7 or 8 tonight. People say you have to keep then up to change their schedule around. Ummm... OK... they don't know my daughter. This girl wont wake up for anyone or anything until she wants to. Yesterday we went for a walk to the bus to the mall then to target then got a ride home from my mom with my loud screamy brother and Veda slept through all of it she fell asleep at home then woke back up at home she had no idea we even left the house. If you can sleep through my brother it's a miracle he's a very loud high energy almost 5 year old. Anyway. My only other option besides dealing with little to no sleep is to change my schedule to hers but that's not working for me either if I did that then I would never see Brad and even with a baby who needs tons of attention and love we still need "our time" I'm not willing to give that up for sleep. OK enough of that next topic. Veda is two weeks old today and she's getting bigger and bigger every day. I on the other hand I'm not getting any smaller any faster. Two weeks after baby and I'm still getting those aww your pregnant smiles from people passing by. I've lost a total of 25lbs and I still look 4 or 5 months pregnant. with this solid pooch I have no desire to get back to my 117 looking back I was too skinny but 130 would be nice. or at least how I am now minus the big belly. This is an odd stage, my maternity clothes are starting to be a little to pregnant and looking big on me but my clothes really don't fit my shirts all show way to much skin in mot into belly shirts and my pants even the "fat day" ones don't fit over my hips and are skin tight and can't be buttoned. So yesterday at target Brad bought me my first non-pregnant outfit. I can't wear it day in and day out until I get more clothes or until something of mine fits but I can wear it when I'm going out into the world so I can feel cute and look half way normal.
