One week, two days

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

Things here at home with baby Kendall are going great. We still have some issues with breastfeeding and latching on, I plan to keep trying for as long as I can. Honestly I didn't even attempt to at all yesterday. I feel ok except for the occassional pain in my tummy but that's supposed to be normal. We had our one week check up and he has grown an inch and gained 6 oz. Go Kendall! Seems we're both doing well.

I'm pretty much getting in sync with his routine. Can't quite say it's predictable but I got an idea of how he operates. It's during the night that he likes to sit up and stay awake for an hour. I'm going to do my best to keep him up late tonight. Last night he woke up at 1:30 and 5:30. This wasn't so bad. K is still adjusting to life with a baby. We both are really. I've been feeling a little bit of the baby blues but not because Kendall, moreso because of K. I just don't feel like he's attracted to me anymore. Last night we spent the evening eating dinner tonight and talking in bed for an hour. It was really nice to at least do that much. I just wish he would at least hug me or touch me other than back to back. But this is another story for another day.

Other than that, things are peachy. We go back for our postpartum appointments just after Labor Day and might get the green light to leave the house for a change. LOL. The first thing I plan to do is cook a HUGE dinner at my parent's house in honor of their anniversary since I didn't get a chance to do anything for them. I hear Kendall stirring so let me check on him and see what we're going to eat for dinner tonight.
