- Tiny Boy and I had the house to ourselves last night, as LG spent the night in a hotel with her grandmother and aunt. Weird, but very nice being on our own schedule this morning, esp. since it was one of those nights he nursed every 1.5-2 hrs.
- I am trying to adjust to drinking coffee with only sugar. (The other times I've been dairy-free I've also cut coffee, and dammit I want to drink coffee [decaf, in case you're wondering].) I was limiting my dairy intake to only cream in coffee, but it seems (alas) that Tiny Boy is a bit better on the tummy front if I eliminate completely. Which sucks, but whatever.
- Random people keep making comments like wow, you lost all that baby weight fast, which is fascinating to me, given that I am still 20 lbs heavier than I was the day of transfer and can't even fit into the size 6 jeans I bought postpartum with LG, much less the size 1 I usually wear. I don't really care about the number on the scale, but it would be nice to wear something other than maternity pants without buying a new wardrobe.
- Appointment with the urologist was not particularly helpful in terms of the question of whether or not Tiny Boy's hypospadias will be surgically corrected. Methinks I will be inquiring about a second opinion at the children's hospital down the blasted highway of all things fertility. I might have more to say about this later.
- I ended up purchasing a sampler of cloth diapers. They scare me, and they are too big to fit Tiny Boy at present. More on this later as well.
- As for the question of baby carriers, I bought a freehand mei tai carrier and it is awesome. I still use the bjorn when we're out (like the grocery store), or when Tiny Boy is thrashing about so much I can't possibly manage to tie myself in anything.
- I think that's all for now. Happy holidays, everyone!

Random Bullets While Tiny Boy Naps

Almond milk, coconut milk, and rice milk are great in coffee. I think they also sell coconut milk based creamer. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm usually a size 0-1 as well and am 6 wks pp. Only 12 lbs left to lose and the only pants that fit are maternity as well. No fun at all. I refuse to buy new clothes.
I didn't get into any of my non-maternity clothes until about 4-5 months postpartum, and I still can't wear everything. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteAnd those nights of 1.5-2 hours of feeding are exhausting. I can't imagine doing that with another child in the house. I'm glad it was just you and Tiny Boy last night!
