Micah is 4 weeks today, he will be one month Saturday the 22nd!
I cannot believe a month has gone by. Every day I am still amazed that Micah is my son! I feel we are getting in the swing of things, as much as one can with a newborn. He is becoming more alert, making more eye contact, and we are hearing a little more noises.
My attempt at taking photos.
Micah likes to ride in the car, he instantly falls asleep.
Has loud farts...like mom ;)
Loves to be held / rocked to sleep
Seems to get fussy when mom has warm food to eat.
I love kissing his face!!!
Sleep: I miss uninterrupted sleep. I am a person who needs a good amount of sleep. Some nights, when Micah wakes up often, I get cranky- especially when he doesn't want to go back to sleep at 2am or 3am. It is not like an alarm clock where I can just snooze, I have to get up because this little guy relies on me to care for all his needs. I keep my phone by the nursery chair and look around Pinterest while nursing him ;)
Nursing: Nursing has been going very well. My breasts are not sore like they were before thankfully. Weird thing is that I don't notice when I "let down." I just feel tingly when they get full. I started pumping this morning, we got 2 ounces. We will have daddy feed Micah tonight to try out the bottle. I look forward to daddy helping with feedings (at least on weekends and maybe late nights).
We have had a fussy little boy the last two days...mostly he wants to eat and be held. Currently he fell asleep so I can type with both hands now. It is hard to do anything but hold /feed/ change/ rock him. I have this sense of guilt that I am not getting housework or things on my to do list done. I am used to being more on top of things, however spending this precious time with Micah is more important.
