12-8-2009 - 6 weeks OkMy mood while writing this blog:
Ok



Wow.. 6 weeks! Can't believe it! As I have said in the past, time is moving slow and I love it! I bet it will start to move fast once I get back to work! Its bittersweet, I want to go back, But don't want to go back. So my 6 week check up is on the 17th. I am going to see if the Dr., will write me off for another 6 weeks, I don't know how tho, I won't get paid by my job (since I used up all my sick and vaca time on maternity leave in order to get paid) BUT if the Dr writes me off as disabled, I could send in a claim to Afflac.. (best thing ever) and they will pay me. hmmmmm.

Well Ryder I think has found his voice a lil. He will lay there and periodically scream, but not cry. Its kinda cute, but has me on edge thinking something is wrong. Ryder is weighing in at 11.6lbs, per my scale.. I stopped pumping on Sunday morning. So I give him formula at night and the rest of what I had stored of breastmilk during the day. I think he has 2 more bottles of mamas milk and he will be on formula. Ill be using enfamil premium. They used that in the hospital when he was born. So Ryder looks nothing like me.. He maybe has my eye color (blue) but I don't know. I joke around saying the only simularity we share is our backs.. lol. Ryder loves his bath time and loves his mobile in his crib. I was soooooo excited last night Ryder slept from 10 to 3 and then until 7! I was soooooo happy! I've learned to ignore his grunts!! He grunts for everything. It sooo funny it seems like if he is asleep and you touch him he will grunt and make a pissed off face lol. My lil grunt!

As for me.. still have that 10lbs to loose. I stopped BFding so hopefully each boob weighed 5lbs, but I'm thinking no. I bought that 3lb hulla hoop. I love it!!! Its low intensity and seems to have narrowed me out sum. It gave me some mean bruises on my hip tho! I had to go buy some new work pants ekkkkk 2 sizes bigger then my old ones. (pretty much the same size I was when I went back to work with my 1st pregnancy) I hope to loose the weight while working. Getting in and out of a car and wear 30lbs of gear and sweating in the heat! and eating 1 meal a day since it is super busy! Me and the hubby did the big bd. (soooo thought it was going to hurt but it didn't...after 1st pregnancy it hurt). It wasn't enjoyable to me tho.. the whole time I'm thinking wow man this is going to hurt. and thinking wow my legs are sore (groin area) and wow my boobs really hurt. lol sooooo at least my hubby got his right lol. I'm thinking once I actually get the BIG go ahead from the Dr and start birthcontrol I will be alll for the BD.

QUESTIONS:

1. Ok when did your guys babies start smiling? Ryder is a very serious baby and his looks are just so intense. I have a feeling he will never smile!

2. Birthcontrol- I really don't get sick on BC or gain weight, but which ones have you guys used and loved or had no problems with?

...Eileen and Ryder...

your little boy is simply ADORABLE :-) I used Mirena (IUD) after my son was born, and loved it. Only downfall, to which hubby never complained about but it bothered me knowing, was that he could feel it during BDing. But it was effortless, no thought involved, and no periods while I had it in... AND I got pregnant with no problems (2 weeks after) after having it out. I swear by it, although I got my tubes tied after my daughter. Two is more than enough little ones for me, especially because we have one of each :-) Good Luck with going back to work, I wish you a little Ryder and your DH the best :)

Well sounds like you and your little man are doing great. I would say he will smile in the next month or so. The hula hoop idea is great, I think I will get one. I am on Yaz BC and I like it fine. Good luck on going back to work. Hopefully the dr will give you more time. TTYS.
