Thanks Med, your daughter is adorable! C-section recovery is slow and painful. I'm creeped out by my own incision lol I feel bad for changing my family dynamic too. I used to do so many things with my son, now I can barely stay awake. He's being a trooper about it though.
Congratulations, Med!! Presleigh is beautiful like her momma! Dana - Elijah is so handsome too! I can't wait for everyone elses little miracles to arrive. I agree that I miss being pregnant. I had a vaginal delivery but had to have an episotomy. Phew! I am finally starting to be able to sit down without pain. We were hit by tropical storm nate last night and Brady slept for 6 hours straight. I'd never wish a tropical storm on anyone but I'll take that sleep all day long!! Nursing is going well but the doctor asked us to add an ounce of formula or pumped breastmilk after each feeding. He's chunking up so that is all that matters. I hope everyone is doing well. I can't remember if I sent a photo or not so I've attached a couple just in case. Mom brain is real!
OMg!!! All these sweet little babies!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are they all girls so far? Or do we have a little princess that I missed?
So far we've got 1 girl and 3 boys. I can't wait to see who goes next! Delivery went very smooth and quick for me, and that part of healing hasn't been too bad other than back pain (I had back labor). But Wyatt is small and I got a cracked nipple because he has issues opening his mouth wide enough. So the cracked nipple then developed into mastitis which basically feels like having the flu while simultaneously being dropkicked in the boob by a UFC fighter. Definitely with you ladies on the change in family dynamic, my poor girls
Ouf mastitis is so painful Still. Baby is having trouble sleeping in his crib. It's really bad at nighttime because 10 minutes after we put him down he wants to breastfeed again. 😥
Well, looks like I may be next because the midwife says I didn't just pee my pants 6 times in a row like I thought I might have! Only very small contractions so far but the machine did detect a few and I feel a bit here and there. See you all on the other side!
Good luck ladies!! Pink - it's totally me and you until the end haha. Don't leave me in the dust.... When's your DD again? I'm scheduled the 25th~
Ok well everyone will have their baby before me, I hope y'all stay around to keep me sane waiting! Threads tend to go dead once people start having their babies!!
No worries Pink, I'll still be here Good luck MissYogi!!! Lol peeing your pants 6x would be quite a bit....you're staying at home right? Ebauerhaus omg that's only like 2 more days!!!! Good luck
