What can I say? It was perfection. Orchids from a friend, diamond earrings from hubby (baby’s birthstone) dinner at parents and a beautiful sunny day. That all ended with his colic tonight though. Had to take him on a 4 am drive to get him asleep. Sigh.
Labor- 27 hours. They kept talking c section but never did. Instead they kept rolling me over which is probably why he was born with the cord wrapped around his neck 3 times. He also had a bowel movement and breathed it in so he spent his first 9 days of life in NICU for antibiotics and oxygen 😦
Our stay was anything but pleasant. Our nurse refused to give him pain meds following circumcision. I literally had to drop the F Bomb 22hoies later and THEN she came in room (without knocking) and tossed the syringe of Tylenol on the bed. REALLY??? What a twat.
Anywho- I’m over the moon with our son but this colic thing has me running on next to zero sleep.
In othe news, I’m back into my pre preggo pants and feeling 100%. Ready for doctor to clear me for some hubby and gym action.
He’s so precious!
Thank you!!! I just wish he would let me sleep 🙂
Dealing with the crying and screaming over here too. Not sure if I’d label it colic yet but it’s close. It’s a lot to deal with. I know im supposed to enjoy this time but the best Mother’s Day present I got was 5 straight hours of sleep while my husband took care of baby. The other stuff was great too. But the sleep was priceless.
Ugh. I wish sleep was one of my presents!!! And hubby works 3rd shift which means no taking turns in the wee hours of the morning :,(
Oh no! Taking turns is the only thing keeping me mildly sane through this time. I hope you get some daytime breaks then.
