Hi ladies!
Hope everyone had a good Halloween! Ours started out rocky yesterday morning but ended nicely. The boys had a blast trick or treating! We spent today driving along the Nachez Trace looking at fall leaves and even stopped to let the boys collect some then ate dinner at my parents' house.

Jen and Kate--I wanted to let you know that I got a new DVD today called Fusion Pilates for post-pregnancy and c-section recovery. It says it is safe to do whether you've had a vaginal or c-section delivery or if you have a "diastis recti." What is this? Is that the abdominal muscle problem you developed, Kate? It says it has yoga-infused pilates and low-impact cardio. I'll let you guys know if it's any good. It's probably too easy for you guys, but I'm SO out of shape right now and need to slowly get back into it.

Anyway... SNL is on. Have a great rest of the weekend!!
 
sounds like everyone is doing great! I am jealous of the elliptical talk!! I can't wait till I can check in more often. Right now Sara is in the don't wanna be put down stage. Landon was in the hospital yesterday and last night w/the croup. He came home today and I just got him down for a nap. Sara is sleeping (for once not on me..lol) I wanted to pop in and say howdy. I am healing nicely. It will be 2 weeks tomorrow and I am just a little stiff after sitting for a long time, but no pain and the incision looks great.

I have a question.. for the bfing moms did you ever have a child not gain as fast as they want? Sara was 8lb 13oz at birth.. then dropped to 7lb 15oz.. we went for a wegiht check the next day and she was 7lb 12oz. Then again the next day she was 7lb 14 oz. So then we went again last thursday and she was only 8lb .5 oz So she gained 2.5oz in 6 days. The ped wants her back again this thursday for another weight check. It's driving me bonkers. I feel full and after she eats I feel empty. I see milk, she spits up and I hear her gulping so surely she is getting enough right? Maybe she is just not the normal 1 oz a day?? He said something about supplementing her if she isn't gaining more this week. I don't want to do that. Any advice? She seems content. She isn't crying between feedings. She isn't fussing at the breast like she isn't getting any milk. This is the 4th time forme bfing, but I always end up pumping and I don't want to do that this time. I am trying to trust my body is doing what it needs to, but now with the slow gain I am second guessing. ahhh sorry just talking it through. I am drinking at least 3 of the 32oz jugs of water a day and I am eating well. I am resting when she does.. so I should be making plenty of milk right?
 
real quick for now....bbl...

trish, your boobs are doing great and so is sara!
kick the ped to the curb!:D
