What beats the hell out of of going on a free trip to Japan?
Actually, it does and it doesn't lol Giving birth was painful, particularly pushing, which is not what people generally say. Most people talk about active labor and contractions and transition but those were all not that bad. I mean contractions hurt but I sort of let myself go with it and just moaned through the pain. Pushing hurt, particularly as she went down the canal and got to the end. But out she came! I do plan to post my birth story for those who are interested. I did give birth naturally aka no drugs or pain medication. I was eventually given lidocaine for my stitches and I've taken Tums and some Colace but that is it.
I also hate being anxious over her. My sweet little Adina was born quite small and my breasts just are not producing enough milk/colastrum for her. It's terribly depressing. Even more depressing, is we've not even been able to get enough formula in her so far, so we have to work harder. She's lost way too much weight and if we don't see the # go positive by Saturday she might need to go into the hospital :(
But I love her. I love her sweet little serious face. I love the way it feels when she snuggles up to me and sleeps. I love her soft hair and can't stop petting her. She has the most adorable serious little expressions and she reminds me so much of my husband. Having her in my life (along with Kennis) are probably the best things that have ever happened to me and despite all my worries about her, I would not wish her gone for the world. Right now, nothing makes me happier than falling asleep with her.
I will be slow responding to people, I have a lot going on right now.
Things I need to do:
