Alexander Update
Today Alexander gets his 2 month vaccines. Today I go back to work. Can you tell this is not going to be a good day for anyone involved? I already have a headache (I just typed headacne...I hope that’s not a sign of things to come with stress...) and I’m on the verge of tears, and the little man isn’t even UP yet!
Anyway, here’s a little update:
Baby’s Name: Alexander Kai
How old is Baby now?: 9weeks, 5days
Baby’s size?: 12lbs, 14oz, 23 1/2 inches long
Baby is eating (how much/how often/new items): quite a lot! I get about a 5-6 hour break between 8pm and 2am or so, but then it’s every 1.5-3 hours. Mostly breastfeeding, supplementing maybe a bottle or two a day to get him used to formula if I can’t find time to pump (see How I’m Doing).
What is Baby up to these days?: smiling, cooing, farting, eating, farting, sleeping, smiling, farting, pooing!
Recent Milestones?: holding something if I put it in his hands.
How I’m Doing: Freakin’ freaking out. Today is my first day back at work--I’m a teacher. Not to mention, today are his 2 month vaccinations. Ugh. I really don’t know how I’m going to go back to school after his shots at 8:15!!! Also, not a clue how I’m going to pump during the day…
