Re: Bouncing Baby Check-in (Week of Sept 14)
1) How old is baby; any milestones or brags this week?
Max has started lifting his own head during tummy time!!!
2) How are you feeling, Mom?
Exhausted, but today is my last day of work before Maternity Leave. Even if Max isn’t home as soon as I want, it is time for me to be out.
3) Rants / Raves / Questions?
Don’t change the diaper for me if you know I am going to be there. Seriously. Just don’t.
4) GTKY: What games are you most looking forward to playing with your lo?
Candy Land and Mouse Trap. Do they even still make these? If not, gonna have to go looking....
1) How old is baby; any milestones or brags this week? Liam is 7 weeks old, 33 weeks and 4 days gestationally. Little man joined the 2 pound club and quickly climbed. Yesterday he was 2lbs and 6 oz and he hasn't even started his extra calories on feeds just yet so he's going to grow rapidly now, which is exciting.
2) How are you feeling, Mom? So DD got everyone in the house sick and let me just warn everyone that this cold going around come hard and fast, I felt like I was hit by a truck Tuesday but thankfully it was just one night and now I'm back to 100%. Aside from that I'm so optimistic this week!
3) Rants / Raves / Questions? All the nurses have told me he's healing from surgery beautifully. His oxygen requirement isn't super low but his setting are low on the oscillator. He's almost back to full feeds and I'm just feeling so good about his healing. I'm overly optimistic and I keep telling the nurses he'll be home around 38 weeks...speaking it into existence lol
4) GTKY: What games are you most looking forward to playing with your lo? Hubby and I used to play this game called sing star on the playstation, I can't wait to have the kids join in

And we have had a serious round robin of nurses. Apparently he has gotten a lot more of the pool nurses than is typical. I actually talked to one of the senior team about that yesterday, because I was bitching about it to the OT, and she passed along my feedback.
1) How old is baby; any milestones or brags this week?
6 days old, 33w6d gestation. They're very hopefully based on her breast play that we might be able to start actually bfing soon with weighted feeds. And they've been auto advancing her milk amount and took her IV out last night!
2) How are you feeling, Mom?
Glad to be home with DS. I missed him so much. Trying to figure out traveling between hospital and home. Physically I'm mostly normal, just slower. But there are a few times still when I'll go something and be forcibly reminded I read recently cut open.
3) Rants / Raves / Questions?
IV out! We get to bathe her tonight.
4) GTKY: What games are you most looking forward to playing with your lo?
Um... I don't know. Reading books and wrestling I think.
1) How old is baby; any milestones or brags this week? 9 days old, she is still sleeping pretty much all the time but eating really well and hoping she will be back at birthweight before our next appt.
2) How are you feeling, Mom? Tired sore nips
3) Rants / Raves / Questions? Establishing my breastmilk freezer supply for the future
4) GTKY: What games are you most looking forward to playing with your lo? I cant wait to see my son and her play together. Hide and seek, playing on the play structures.
1) How old is baby; any milestones or brags this week?
Brand new! Right now about 22 hours old, 35+6
2) How are you feeling, Mom?
Tired. My bottom is sore. And I’m having lots of after-pains, which suck.
3) Rants / Raves / Questions?
Maisie is a breastfeeding rockstar!
4) GTKY: What games are you most looking forward to playing with your lo?
Even just basic peek-a-boo stuff, but our kids love board games do getting to add her to the mix will be fun!
