The Abdul reference is due in part to my breastfeeding woes. Things were getting a bit better and then terrible pains on Thursday+ a midwife visit= yeast and possible mastitis. So on the antibiotics I go- then I was getting mixed messages about bfeeding. The pharmacy said do not breastfeed- and my midwife said it was A-OK. I ended up just giving H formula for the duration of the weekend and getting a 2nd & 3rd opinion as well. So we hopped back on the breastfeeding train and will continue the caboose of formula. How is that weird analogy for ya?!
The blanket of snow we encountered this weekend was warmly welcomed by the Oats. We strolled through our little neighborhood- blinded by the snow- but happy to see it.Last night H's sleeping pattern threw me- big time. Instead of waking at 10ish and staying up till 4am- she fell asleep around 12:30 and let me sleep till 3:30! Wow was it that evident that I was so sleepy even to a 3 week-old?
:::: Happy 3 Weeks Hazel Juniper:::::
Today in the brief nap time I had- I was able to finish a special gift and organize the others. I'm so grateful for Zach having the rest of the week off- or working from home. I appreciate our team effort for baby Hazel. One little baby- wiping us both out but loving every minute.
