Hooray for pee and poop!
Juliette is so sweet. Yesterday, she managed to pee and poop on two separate occasions while we were changing her diaper. Man, that girl can pee. Since I'm breastfeeding Juliette, I've been somewhat freaking out about whether she is getting enough milk. Yesterday it seemed as though she wanted to be attached too me 90% of the day. But I'm beginning to realize that two hours can go by really quickly and that is why it seems that way. Today has been the first day where she has numerable wet diapers and she had her first soiled diaper that actually looked as it should. This was all very reassuring to me since I was pretty much in hysterics over it last night. Poor Bryan, not only does he have to deal with Juilette's crying but mine as well. So in the end, I am much more relaxed today. I get very happy when Juliette dirties a diaper. Yay for pee and poop! Tomorrow we are going to our Lactation consultant at the hospital to have her watch and help me breast feed Juliette. Hopefully this will put the rest of my breastfeeding fears behind me.

Just catching up on the Kennedy's Blog. Congrats on the new baby! She's adorable. As a new mom, I questioned myself on everything (including breastfeeding!). The Lactation consultant at the hospital really helped me too! Brian-sounds like you're the perfect dad! Enjoy your new little "tax deduction" as your first official Mother/Fathers Days approach! :) -heather
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you're doing a great job! :) I'm looking forward to and counting down the days until I cheer and jump up and down over pee and poop. I can't wait! :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it crazy how much time you obsess about bodily fluids? Pee, poop, spit up, breast milk, etc...ugh! I'm glad it's going well and I hope the lactation visit goes well!
