Today is your two week birthday, and as you're getting more alert and awake, I'm exhausted!
Breastfeeding is still going well, and I'm starting to see a schedule (7 am, 10, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 2) but our sessions still last about an hour and a half between waking you up and getting you started feeding. Some sessions are better than others and you're now back up to 10 lbs, 3.5 ounces. I expect you'll be back at your birthweight next week.
milk face!
Last night was a real accomplishment for you and me; I didn't fall asleep with you at all- you were safely tucked into your pack n play by my bedside! Co-sleeping is something we never did with your sister by the way, it's mostly so I don't have to wake her up in the night as we're figuring this whole feeding thing out. You'll be in your room soon enough I'm sure.

For me, I'm healing good and haven't been on pain medicine for about a week (save the occasional Motrin). I did manage to throw my back out last night- so we'll see how the weekend goes! But I am feeling good- I've lost about 30 lbs since the delivery. You and I took our first walk this week, I made dinner last night (chicken quesadillas and sweet potato fries) and I can even get my wedding ring on during the day now! This weekend's goal is to walk the dogs and get to the grocery store with you.
Love you baby boy!!
Xoxo,
Your mama
