I have been wanting to start one since I've had Kaleb...but everytime I start a thread it dies...so I didn't want that to happen. Kaleb will be 3 months on on April 12. He is starting to sleep much better. He goes down around 8:30 and gets up once. This week though he keeps waking up at 4-4:30 and since I get up at 5:30...that just wasn't cutting it. So one morning instead of getting up and getting him out of bed to nurse him, I just let him cry to see what would happen...after a couple of minutes he went back to sleep! Yay! So I have gotten full nights rest all this week...though I still wake up a million times a night. I have been exercising to lose my weight. I have only 9 more pounds of pregnancy weight and then I need to lose another 10. I've just been eating healthy...no sugar, no pasta, or potatoes...only whole wheat pasta and sweet potatoes and whole wheat bread. I exercise with Denise Austin every morning for 1 hour. I LOVE her shows. I feel wonderful and have SO much more energy since I've been exercising. Some days DH and the kids and I walk a mile in the evening, and sometimes I walk the kids to the park, which is a half mile away. I too wish I could take them to WDW and walk there...but 3 hours is a little far to drive everyday. DH and I are planning on going up for the day on April 23....I've never been in April...how bad will the crowds be?
I am BFing, but supplementing with formula because he wants to nurse WAY too much..and since I have 3 other little ones...I just can't do it. I've never had to supplement before...so it's been weird.
I can't imagine having to work a full time job on top of just having had a baby.... I am so thankful that I can be a SAHM. I am starting to watch my cousins new baby..she is 6 weeks old...it will be fun watching her and Kaleb grow up together and it will be GREAT having another girl inthe house.
Well, I'll check in again tomorrow. The boys want lunch....all of them.
