I wanted to post the birth story. I wanted to take a walk. I wanted to take a shower. I wanted to eat a hot meal. Instead I've been feeding Cooper since 9:30 am yesterday morning. He's going through a growth spurt is my guess (he's not just using me as a pacifier, he is actually eating). I also think he just wants me. If I try to give him to Chris, swaddle him and put him his crib, put him the bouncer or put him in the swing after feeding him, he wakes up and wants to eat again in just 10 min (after an hour or more of feeding). Or if I just let him sleep on me, he takes a 2-3 hour nap and my boobs won't fall off. I'm opting for holding my baby. I hope this stage passes in a few days. I need a break.
Things I have learned in the last few days:
- The daily goal list is more like a wish list and it should only have one item on it
- I smell like my son
- I know how to pee and breastfeed at the same time
- I can't be nice when I'm tired
- I am a servant to my son and therefore my husband is a servant to me
