Fast Forward

Rather than going back and recapping the first month of parenthood, I'd like to just start off in the present. Although some of the highlights of the month are worth mentioning.

Day 3: Home from the hospital and a total breastfeeding meltdown on my part. Matt panicked and considered going back to work later that afternoon rather than waiting out the week, but after a lactation consultant visited our home, peace returned.

Day 5: We find out Leila has jaundice, although it was quite obvious being that she was almost the color of a pumpkin. We have a baby tanning bed set up in the pack and play and she has to stay on this bed 24/7 unless feeding or being changed.

Day 9: The tanning bed is packed up and taken away!

Day 15: 2 week doctor appointment goes well. Leila is gaining weight like a champ!

Day 23: Leila earns the nickname "Hungry Hippo" because when she is hungry she MUST be fed immediately! Sound familar anyone? Matt and I have no one to blame but ourselves.



Day 28: Projectile poop. Enough said.
