Things I forget with having a new born
- Breastfeeding....I'm going to be honest, I have a hard time with producing milk. I thought with Quincy being full term this would be easy and I wouldn't have a problem with giving him what he needed. whelp I was wrong :( I wasn't starving him, he was a content little guy, just not gaining anything. We had to go to formula at 8 weeks
- Baby weight... Oh the joys of baby weight. When I was putting it on I would tell myself "I'm pregnant", and I would just work hard to get it off. Well that time is now.
- Balancing a new born and 28 month old. I'm getting better at it, but how does a 28 month understand when his little brother is crying that his needs need to be meet before his. But now that Quincy is formula feed he can be feed faster and taken care of faster, so Dylan can get his juice or whatever he needs done sooner :)
- When leaving the house you REALLY need to make sure the diaper bag is fully stocked with what you need, and don't leave ANYTHING out, or your HOOPED!!! lol
-SLEEP!!!! When Dylan came home from the hospital he was on a sleep schedule but Quincy we had to do it on our own. I not complaining because I'm going to do this all over again with another child, but boy you sure do loose alot :) I would like to say though that Quincy is now sleeping thru the night for about 7-8 hours a night :) Dylan on the other hand is getting up every night around 1:30-2 am yelling for me or Ryan. We always end up letting him come into bed with us, but the last couple of nights I've left his door open and told him to stay in bed, but if he gets out of bed I'll close it. He's actually stayed in bed and gone back to sleep. So maybe(fingers crossed) this will do the trick.
- Laundry, Laundry, LAUNDRY!!!! LOTS!!! LOTS!!! That's all its seems I'm doing, if I skip a day I make up for it the next day. If I plan a trip I know I'm doing laundry when I'm packing to leave, and I know I'll be doing laundry when I get back. Who knew we'd go thru so much. Maybe I'm just a clean freak. lol
well to end this funny post are some cute picture's of my boys. So enjoy :)
