Chris - She is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!! And I agree, you look great. I love the proud parent and proud mommy photos. Thank you for sharing your birthing story. My favorite part is
I truly understand about the isolation and the baby blues. It does get a bit lonely. But trust me it gets better.Congratulations again.
June - I am so happy that everything went well with your scan. Fantastic news.
A lot of other stuff has happened since I last posted and I am still trying to catch up on my reading. You all have been busy!
AFM - This is my first week back to work. Tuesday, I boohooed when I had to leave Katelyn. I only stayed at work for like 3 1/2 hours. I am hoping that over the next few weeks I get back into the work groove. It is just hard though. Luckily she still sleeps through the night (most nights). I am pumping at work and then breast feeding at night and in the mornings. So far that is going ok. I am going to ask the Dr. when I we can start giving her solids. Since she is preemie I am not sure if we need to wait for her adjusted age. Good news is she is almost 11lbs and is doing well developmentally. We had an appointment with a Physical Therapist for the County to assess if she qualified for therapy. She did not - which is a good thing. I hope that she never qualifies. The PT said that she was doing really well and just continue giving her more tummy time.
Currently, Katelyn's fav position is standing up. She no longer likes to lay down - even when you hold her, she either wants you to sit her up or stand her up. once she gets a little stronger with her stomach muscles we are gonna get her a exosaucer. She laughed out loud for the first time the other day. My hubby was talking to her and I heard a loud squeal and little laughter . She has laughed before but not so big. She is also becoming quite the talker (like her mommy!)
I will post a couple photos.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Chris #2 - you are next girfriend
Charmaine/Anna - Waiting to see photos
Viv - Hope you and your son are doing ok. We miss you and think about you often.
and love to you all.
Best,
Steph
OMG - I thought that was hysterical.My whole wanting to be able to walk while in labour was stupid, because when you feel like that you don't want to walk, you want to crawl into a ball and die, so yeah... any of you wanting to be a hero- don't! There is absolutely no reason to suffer when something as glorious as an epidural exists.
