So Tired, But So Happy...

Hi guys - I know I've been VERY quiet these last couple of days but Mady comes first and she doesn't allow much online time. She's eating a CRAZY amount of food and she had her first doctors appointment yesterday. The doctor told me to let her go and eat as much as she wants to. She's eating about 3.5 oz every couple of hours which is FAR more than the 1 oz they said to feed her every 3 or 4 hours. She is allergic to anything BUT Pampers diapers but her bum is still super ouchie from me not knowing that so this morning she is going to have a soda bath and soak her little bum. Its wierd though, I can't imagine how I ever got by without her. She's by far the light of my life. I am terribly sore still though from the delivery - I mean I can get around ok but sometimes I forget what just happened to me and I slap myself down in a chair and cringe.

So I'm bottle feeding her too - no breast feeding but my breasts are starting to complain and have been for a couple of days now. They're SO full and I don't know how long they'll stay like that. I almost wish I could go back and forth between a bottle and breast feeding because I feel like a milk cow right now :)

After her bath I'm going to take some more pictures of her but I have a few I'm going to post with this entry from Wednesday. That's all for now but wen she's sleeps again I'll be back online if I can get the computer.

Tam - Sorry I haven't been able to call you yet - as you know life is crazy right now.

NOTE: Do any of you have any monitor recommedations?? I have a Fisher Price one but it's old and it doesn't work very good and I would like to have one that works perfect so I will go buy a new one but any suggestions would be great.

Love you all
Ter

Just had to laugh - brings back so many memories-- the discomfort in all private places, especially!! Funny how those places become so public---- and now you're faced with so many new dilemnas- diaper rash? monitors? and on it goes----and goes-- and never ends!! But the joy, and love, and new found meaning make it all worthwhile--- I saw Mady's picture at Tammie's -- probably within minutes of becoming a bonafide member of this human race!!! She is absolutely beautiful, and so helpless, innocent, and completely dependant-a bundle of love and new worries!!! Congratulations-- Jennah and I will be getting some things together for her--- love--
