Whew. I need to update on all that has been going on in life. Baby is here. He's six weeks old as of tomorrow. Amazing.
I don't have a lot of time to update thoroughly, as I'm sure he'll be calling for me momentarily. I did want to take the time to officially record my weight this week so I have a written point of reference for the weeks to come.
Today's Weigh-In: 181.4
I'll admit, that's depressing. I've been bouncing around in the upper 170's and was really wanting to get that number down to the next decade, not go up in to the higher decade. Sigh.
But, I'm still working to establish milk supply. I'm not active much at all with so much nursing. I'm not sleeping well with a newborn which leads to more inactivity for me as well. And, I'm battling old habits of eating to keep myself awake, deal with stress, tiredness, and just generally rewarding myself with food.
I am working toward Dr. F's Six Week plan for eating with added oats and fats. I'm not totally sure how much, so I'm back and forth with that right now. I'm also dealing with eating foods that are easy and feed my nasty craving for bread. That addiction is bad right now.
But, that's all I've got for now. Baby is wailing and I need to snug my favorite little man for the night.
