Good days

just want to take a minute to talk about the relief days!! The days after your baby is feeling better! We just got over a couple days of constipation(horrible). It's amazing to have my healthy eater back! Being a ftm is hard, but these days especially make it so worth it! Anybody having one of these days?

    Not today but i remember a few weeks back my LO had horrible gas for a few days, blocked nose and phlegm! She screamed every waking minute then was a dream for an entire day! She would sleep after every feed and would spend her awake time quietly staring at stuff. That was a good 1 day lol

  • I know there are "witching hours" so I really enjoy the blissful hours within a day, when LO is sweetly sleeping, calmly feeding or the best, awake and playful and happy...
  • A couple of days ago we had a rough morning. After lunchtime feed I rocked DS to sleep and then went to lay him down. The minute his head touched be bassinet his eyes were wide open. I was so frustrated and hungry at this point. I walked away to throw in a load of laundry and breathe before we started the whole falling asleep process again. I was gone maybe 5 minutes and when I came back he was FAST ASLEEP!!!! I almost cried I was so proud of my son. I ran to the kitchen to eat, but there was no need. He slept for the next 2 hours straight. I got so much done in those 2 hours!!!

    On a related note: Does anyone else feel like a superhero with how fast things can get done when you don't know how long LO will sleep for? Laundry, dishes, etc. used to take forever because I would dawdle. Now, a 2 hour nap means I can eat, shower, load, run and empty the dishwasher, do 4 loads of laundry and still have time to watch some Grey's Anatomy... :) And I feel so proud of my accomplishments.
