Nathan goes in for his shots today. I'm not looking forward to having him cry from the pain but I'm happy he'll be getting immunized.
We attended our first Infant Massage class on Tuesday and it went well! I learned how to massage his legs and tummy. The next few classes will be for the rest of his body. He started fussing so I had to stop for a bit. Too much rubbing I guess! He kept looking at the woman next to me and smiling at her and we joked that he was flirting with her, it was cute :) There were 5 other women with their babies. I didn't socialize much but hopefully I'll get to know them a little better over the next few weeks. I was going to go to the Baby Blanket Time class today but forgot that we had to drive an hour to the doctor for his appointment. I'll try to attend their next class.
I've been feeling a little better lately. I cried this morning because I let a few silly things get to me. I was changing Nathan like I usually do, on our bed on his change pad and he decided to throw up his breakfast from when his Daddy fed him earlier. I was still half asleep and was hoping to go back to bed but we ended up having to give him a bath, which actually was good since I didn't give him one last night like I wanted. He went back in the bassinet after that so we could get one more hour of sleep before the alarm went off. He was fussy and I ended up having to change a poopy diaper. My reaction time was slow and ended up getting peed on. It's happened quite a few times but this morning I cried about it because I was tired.
Then when I went to take my shower I dumped all the water out of his baby tub and went to put it away but hadn't dumped it all out and ended up spilling water all over the bathroom floor. I cried about that too.
And my hands are still numb. I've had to fix so many typos in this post already. Maybe one day I'll make a post without edits! It's pretty bad.
Nathan is crying, gotta go feed him. I'll post more after our appointment today.
Goodluck. Viktor goes tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling when you want to go back to sleep but they end up pooping or throwing up so that we have to get up. And, I don't know if you are like me, but once I get up I can't go back to sleep. I hate it. It doesn't mean I am not tired.
I found a mommy play group!! My stepsister went once, and I am going to go with her next time. I also think I am suffering from some sort of postpardum. Also, for us this is starting all over again. I mean, we had one and our firstborns are all grown up now and independent and here we are starting all over again. I don't know about you, but I really forgot a lot of teh feelings involved with having a baby. Of course, I am not saying I am not happy I have a baby because I wanted him more than anything in this world.
I am so happy you found a group! I really really hope that works out for you and Viktor! I was supposed to go to a class yesterday with Nathan but had car troubles which I'm getting ready to blog about. What a day!
ReplyDeleteSeems you're feeling better which I'm happy about :)
