Life with Two

Wow, things have been busy. There are so many things that I'm wishing I would have done before the birth but oh well I'm slowly getting them accomplished. I should have gotten all my pump parts washed and sterilized because I have to check today that I'm making enough milk. I took Baby M to the dr this morning because he's not urinating enough. It's really hard with the circumcision to tell if he peed or not because we're having to use so much petroleum jelly to cover the circumcision. The dr. told me he looked great and that I should pump both breasts to make sure I'm getting at least 2-3 ozs. I guess I should have supplemented with formula until my milk came in but no one really talked to me about that so I was unaware. Guess I should have figured that one out being a second time mom but I didn't have to do that with Little man.

My brother has been helping out so much with Little man. R worked Wednesday and then today is his last day. My hormones have been getting the best of me lately thinking about both of us not working, but he's applied for several jobs so hopefully he'll have some luck. I guess I'm most scared about losing insurance right when Little man is starting preschool. He's been away from the daycare/preschool setting for over a year so I'm sure his immunity isn't what it once was and then with the new baby I'm scared he'll be bringing home germs to share, guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Little man's first day of preschool was a parent and child day and was shortened from 9-10:30. He had a really great time and we took lots of really cute pictures. I'm really going to try to blog in detail about his first day and everything that's gone on for the past couple days so I have the account to look back on.

There's so much more to write but I have to get lunch made and feed Baby M soon so it will have to wait. Oh can I just say that the birth worked out just the way I had hoped and I'm so glad we didn't have the induction on the 29th! Thanks for all your advice, support and comments, they mean so much to me!!!!!!!
