One week!

I can't believe Brooklyn has been here one week! It has gone by way too fast.

Weight:  At birth 6 pounds 5 at discharge 6 pounds and at her first appointment 6.5 :)

Sleep: she's been getting up at 1/2am and 5/6 am. She goes back to sleep easily.. Fingers crossed it stays that way! She's sleeping in the rock and play for now.

Clothes: Newborn but she's really long so some of them are too short.

Visitors:  Mimi, poppi, and some friends!

Diet:  Breastmilk straight for the source. No bottles yet. Even with a tongue and lip tie she's really great at nursing! She hates her pacifier so she thinks mama's one. No complaints in this department! 

Baby Gear Love:  

It’s Been timer- You click the button when you feed/change the baby and then you can remember how long it's been since you changed or feed them! This great especially when you have baby brain or no sleep brain.

Crying:  Only when she's hungry or wants to comfort nurse... She rarely cries most of the time it's a little chirp!

Milestones:  

We made our first trip out of the house to target. Girlfriend often wants to nurse every hour so it's hard to get out! She did great and slept the whole time. We also went to get Jackson from school and she slept the whole time. Jackson was so excited she was in the car, it was so cute! 

Postpartum: This week was awesome very little aches and pains. No stitches :) and just bliss. I can tell my hormones have started changing today boo. Nursing pain due to her lip tie has gotten worse but for the most part tolerable. She's going to get it clipped next Tuesday! I'm down 15 pounds so far!

Big Brother: Jackson LOVES his baby sister! He wants to hold her all the time and hates when she cries. He has requested that she "go swimming" and "read books" along with a lot of other activities she too small for but it's so sweet. He always looks for her when he wakes up. Although he really loves her, he has had a lot of tantrums this week- we can't figure out if it's the lack of sleep or truly having a new person in the house. He's also getting his two year molars which is not helping. But overall he has really been great!
