Becca Update
Apr. 20th, 2007 08:37 am5 pounds, 1 ounce.
That's a full 9 ounce gain since last week!
*does happy 'baby gaining weight' dance*
She is still doing wonderfully well. The box of preemie clothes finally arrived, so she has lots of cute outfits that actually fit her. Whoot!
Mommy, on the other hand, has also been to the doctor. She now has the number for the local Crisis Center in case symptoms get worse. Confessed many, many things during that visit, with Momma A sitting there too adding her 4 cents when she thought it appropriate. Useful information, and I managed not to roll my eyes at her.
If I don't improve by next week, we can consider taking a Zoloft knockoff, which won't leech into breast milk.
I'll be honest with you guys. The nights are the worst, especially if I don't nap during the day. The not eating comes and goes, depending on how overwhelmed I feel. I am making the effort to have at least one full meal a day, two are a little harder. I don't think I've had three yet this week. Eh heh. *rubs back of head* Yeah. Hence my nibbling on a pear this morning while feeding Becca her formula and getting Markl ready for school. Thank the gods he's a responsible 7 year old who can make his own lunch.
UGH. *clutches breasts* Ok, time to go pump. *pokes the over-full mammary glands*
