Shew-Wee!!!
Bailey will be one month old tomorrow. Everything is getting much easier. We kinda have a routine. She does really well during the day. She wakes up every 3 hours or so for a feeding. She is now up to 3 oz of breastmilk. Mommy is on her own at night. We figured out that Daddy NEEDS his sleep. It is best for everyone involved if we just let Daddy sleep and not wake him. If we do wake him he may tell us to HUSH!!!! One night Bailey was screaming and that is what Daddy had to say to us. He is not like that during the day, so Bailey and I decided to let Daddy get his rest at night and us girls will party without him all night.
Shew-wee!!!! Since Mommy's friends don't produce enough breastmilk, we have to supplement with formula for 2 feedings per day. Bailey does very well with the 2 formula feedings each day. We have noticed that it has slowed down her bowel movements. She still thinks that she must do #2 after each feeding but, her body doesn't. So, she pushes and grunts but nothing....nothing....until....BAM!!!!! She explodes. In the first 2 weeks of life she was doing #2 at least 7 times per day. Now we are down to 1-2 times.
I have also taken a few pics of Bailey in her swing. This thing is a lifesaver. She really enjoys it and it calms her when she is fussy....hardly ever. Paul and I are really loving parenthood. She is a joy and we are the luckiest parents in the world to have such and angel. To see all the pics click here. Enjoy!
