Our sweet tiny girl is 2 weeks old today! It seems like we have had her in our lives for a lot longer than 2 weeks. Time is funny these days.
I am getting used to her in our lives and getting used to no sleep. Don't get me wrong, it's still tough at 3:00AM, but I'm learning how to sleep more deeply in a short amount of time. As a person who looooves to sleep, I'm amazed with how little sleep I can get and still function. My eyes feel like sandpaper, but I crave those little sweet moments when we cuddle. I'm addicted to kissing her little soft cheeks. I like whispering little secrets to her about how crazy I am about her. All in all, I'm a fan. I guess we'll keep her.
Our midwife dropped by for our 2 week appointment today. Miss Audrey has gained 240gms since last Monday. She's breastfeeding so well! Also, I'm officially on a high calorie diet to balance the weight I'm losing from breastfeeding. Ha!!
To celebrate I ate a cookie. A really big cookie.
Shucks.

ReplyDeleteI remember eating a ton (I was always hungry.) to keep up with breastfeeding. Oh, you want me to eat ice cream, milkshakes, and cake? No problem!
So Sweet! Here's to hoping you can start to get more sleep sometime soon!

ReplyDeletebefore you know it those sleep deprived days (weeks...maybe months) will be a distant memory...luckily the cuddling part sticks around, it's just a little different with a 36 lb. 5-yr old.
She's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteTalia, she is truly gorgeous. She has a perfect little rose bud mouth and that hat is to die for. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteWhat a completely beautiful baby girl. You have a lovely blog.
