We had a great day! Sam went to work and my friend Jen took him so I didn't have to figure out sleeping and eating in the midst of getting him in and out of the car seat. My brother in law, Tom, is picking him to help me too. :)
This weekend I had an infection and the symptoms are the worst flu like symptoms ever. UGH! I woke up with it in the middle of the night on Friday night/Saturday morning with it. Sam knew what to do and we did that. We called the midwife and it was mine on duty this weekend. She started me on antibiotics and then said I would feel better Sunday morning. Saturday was a blur of a day. I felt so yuck! I was super tired Friday, but I just figured it was the super tired everyone said I would get the first week and it was finally catching up with me. NOPE it was the infection. So by Saturday I was wiped out, achy, tired and just yuck. Sam took such good care of us both and then I was feeling so much better the next morning.
Today it was great to feel good again. Max did great sleeping and eating with a few little cries here and there. We read books, talked to Danielle and her family on skype, and went on a walk.
It went pretty good and I even tried the whole vacuuming thing in the same room to see if it really works. IT DID!! We sleep him in the middle of light and noise during the day but really??? Vacuuming in the same room...that seemed impossible. NOPE! He did great!!!
The midwife comes tomorrow for a check up and another weigh in. We will see how good he does, and it is the first time our actual midwife will meet him. She is pretty excited to see him.
Glad your feeling better! Sounds like you're doing great... out for a walk and everything! Give our love to that sweet little boy!
ReplyDeleteLOVE hearing your first days as a momma! We also got the most incredible and meaningful package in the mail yesterday from NZ! LOVE IT! It's sooooooo wonderful. We've already eaten some of the candy. Ready to put some flowers someone gave us in the plastic vase (crazy cool!). And CANNOT WAIT to snuggle our kiddos in that amazing blanket. It's already hanging on the back of the new glider my mom/grandma got for Judah and Addise. :) Thank you so much for the beauty and love of your gift!!!
