The appointment was good. She has put on two ounces--yay! My little anorexic baby can stop being supplemented with formula now (something the hospital made us do because she lost 10% of her birth weight so quickly).
I got out of the house alone (to the gym) for a bit today and was rather emotional about it. It felt so good to go back to the gym and to be human, but the world looks really different to me now. I was looking at people and wondering if their lives were the same last week as they are now since mine barely resembles the old one. All I do is sit in my glider, nursing her. She eats like a machine--15 times a day. My poor breasts. Who knew breast feeding was so hard (a post for another day)?? Then again, who knew any of this is so hard. Nevertheless, she is a healthy, adorable little thing and I am so thankful to have her in my world. Here are some newer photos:

I can't believe how beautiful she is!
Congratulations!
She is so adorable! And yes, breastfeeding is hard. Prepare to be permanently tethered to your baby for the next year (or however long you plan to do it). And you're back at the gym less than a week after having her? Good God, woman, you're hard-core! :)
I'm sure its a tough adjustment, but you're doing great...and she's a doll! Congrats again!
