I desperately need a swing and wish I'd arranged to borrow one before he was born (several people have offered theirs, but now I need to make arrangements to pick one up which is a pain). He doesn't do well sitting in the bouncy chair unless I shake it with my foot, which kind of defeats the purpose of using it for a little freedom. I think he'd love the swing and it could free me up a little around here. So I hope I can make that happen soon.
Tomorrow I meet a friend for a hike. I don't know how physically capable I'll be - my lady parts still hurt quite a bit, especially when I carry him. I'm SO looking forward to no more pain in that area!!!
I may also make a quick jaunt to a dance venue Thurs night just to say hi. I'll carry him so no one can touch him or breathe in his face, so hopefully it'll be ok. I feel it's important to start making short trips into the real world now and see how we do.
Well I smell a poopy diaper (anyone who says breast milk fed poo doesn't smell doesn't know my kid), so here's a rare waking photo:
Oh good golly he's adorable! Just look at that tiny face!
ReplyDeleteI hope you can arrange a swing...when I was pregnant I refused every offer for a swing saying I wouldn't need it then by the time Elena was 4 weeks in desperation I ran out & bought a 2nd hand one & wished I'd had it from the beginning!
oh my goodness, he's heartbreakingly beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteAw, look at that sweet face! He's so cute!
ReplyDeleteAs for getting stuff you need - amazon. I ordered all sorts of things I needed - life saver! (And the swing - I couldn't have survived without it those first months. Too bad we don't live close to each other, I'd lend you mine.)
