We are doing well. Sadly my mom had to leave this morning, but we are looking forward to Grammy coming on Tuesday. Thank you mom for visiting and helping so much. I don't know what we would have done without her! She was here 2 weeks (because Lily was late she was here a week before the delivery). My Aunt Carol who lives in the area has been an amazing helper too. (her and my mom cleaned our whole place while we were at the hospital! best.gift.ever) The other night she took a few pictures of Lily with her fancy camera (and the talent to go with it!). I'm not in any of the pics because I was looking rough!
Lily did have issues with Jaundice and we were released from the hospital late (I forgot to update on this). We did have an at home nurse come and do tests for her the past couple of days and she is now in the 'green zone'. That is good.
I forgot to mention that I did have to go back to the hospital on Thursday because of severe abdominal pains. I couldn't even walk. After 8 hours in the hospital, people saying they thought I had appendicitis, I was finally diagnosed with constipation! Who knew it could be that painful! I hadn't gone since before the birth come to think of it...
Overall we are feeling very blessed to have sweet Lily. She really seems easier as a baby than David, but maybe that's because we knew what to expect. She cries when she has gas, needs to go #2, or is hungry. She is hungry ALL the time. Sheesh! We still are doing breastmilk and than formula only when needed. I REALLY want to get her off the formula, so we are working towards that. She loves to chomp so I am very very sore, but I'm trying to feed her as much as I can take it. I'm still on an antibiotic but the symptoms of my mastitis are gone now. We are hoping we are in the clear now and I won't have any more medical issues- at least for a little while!
