Amores, I have learned so many things in the past week:
1.) Being in labour is the worst, especially when it lasts 39 hours and is an Intervention Packed nightmare instead of the drug-free water birth we'd been hoping for. But the first moment of holding a slippery slidey little baby makes it all go away.
2.) Not supposed to have caffeine, chocolate, garlic, or leafy greens while breastfeeding a newborn. No coffee?!?!!!!! Am adjusting slowly to an almost coffee free life - have one diluted cup a day to take the edge off.
3.) 6lb babies do not fit into cute baby clothes.
4.) Bran muffins are my friend.
5.) 3 hours of consecutive sleep is surprisingly refreshing.
6.) NX is an amazing parent.
7.) Robobebe is an amazing baby.
