I had my baby on Thursday. He weighed 9 lbs. 6 oz. and was 21 1/2" long. For my 5'2" frame, that was quite the haul I was carrying around!! We're still in the hospital due to the c-section and some feeding issues with the baby (I can't nurse because of some medicine I have to take...for the rest of my life, and the formula isn't staying down well). But, as soon as I recover, I'm back with the HWHL program. Looking forward to it!!
Wow! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteJen Congrats!!!! That is a big baby...especially for your small frame. I hope he starts eating well soon. Take care of yourself...heal well and we look forward so you joining us sometime in the new year!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Jenn! Oh my, that is one big boy from one small momma. Hope that they find just the right milk for your brand spanking new not so wee baby. I think you have to post a picture and at least a first name for this wee baby, otherwise we'll just call him Jenn's baby boy forever.,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I am so happy for you. I hope he is perfect for you! We can't wait to have you back :)
ReplyDeleteWow! Congratulations! I hope to see pictures soon. C-sections suck! (at least I really hated mine).
ReplyDeleteHope your recovery goes well. I look forward to getting to know you better. :)
Congrats on your little (or not so little) guy! Hope your recovery goes smoothly and your little one lets you get plenty of rest.
ReplyDeleteHaving a baby is the healthiest, best way in the world to lose 9+ lbs instantly! May you and the little guy enjoy this special time getting to know each other. Falling in love with your baby is so magical! Congratulations Mom!
ReplyDeleteJennifer! Post a picture of that fat baby now! Everyone is going to fall in love with those cheeks!
ReplyDeleteBabyhood is the only time of life where fat cheeks makes you cuter.
Congratulations Jenn! I hope the feeding is going better and you are on your way to healing from the surgery. Can't wait to see a picture of him!
ReplyDeleteYes, we love fat baby pictures!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. C-sections are no fun. I've had 3 of them. I think the most important thing, mentally/emotionally/psychologically after having a baby is to not be hard on yourself about keeping up with things. It's just gonna be rough for a while, and practically everything will fall through the cracks. But soon, maybe in a few months, things will start to regulate themselves and you'll be back to where you want to be.
Nice work, Mama! Enjoy yourself these first few weeks, remember, you can sleep when you're old!
ReplyDeleteI actually have loved my c-sections, my vaginal birth recoveries were the pits. And thank you everyone, he's been perfect!
