It has been 11 weeks since we welcomed Baby Girl into the world !
She is fat, fluffy, and such a delight. She can now hold her head up and keep it in line with her body when being held upright. She turns her head to look for me when she hears my voice. She loves tummy time and at long last she enjoys her bath.
At current, she still averages 3 to 4 ounces of milk at a time. She drinks 14-28 ounces in a given day but on average, she drinks about 22 ounces a day.
The baby is laughing out loud now and coos when you talk to her and flashes the biggest smile.
I am beyond in love with her and am excited to spend Christmas with her.
Mommy News:
I am down 64 pounds since giving birth and will continue to work on my body. I plan to walk a few miles a day on the beach and continue with a low carb high protein high fat diet.
The feeling around my incision is starting to come back and it feels weird.
My milk supply has dropped quite a bit since the clogged ducts. I have pumped only 10 oz the last several days. I’m not going to stress about it. She has been sleeping a lot over the past week and has been drinking about 14 oz total so she is still getting more breast milk than organic formula. We are in DC for the holiday and I will spend more time trying to pump every other hour when we get back to try to get the supply up. I also started taking the motilium again now that the clogged ducts are gone.
Grandmom News:
My mother is doing well. Her wound is almost closed now ! Other than nausea, she feels pretty good.
Such great news about you (except the lowered supply – gosh I know all about how medical issues mess up supply and the work to build it back up, good luck with that!) and about your mom. 64 pounds! Motherhood suits you in so many ways!!
