I finally listened to my husband and started taking it easy - the past three days all I have really done was take care of me and the baby and nap alot and rest. Well it seems to be helping because I am feeling better - I am not as sore. I am back in regular underwear and my bleeding has slowed down.
I have to say for the most part I have a pretty great baby - he only really cries when he is hungry - he still has his days and nights mixed up and likes to be up for a couple of hours during the night sometimes - but he is really great.
Since I am feeling better I feel like I am being a better mom to him - which helps - I think my hormones are also not as bad as they were before. I hope I am not jinxing myself with all this positive talk - LOL.
I have lost 22 of the 32 pounds I have gained during my pregnancy - which I do not think it too bad - only 10 pounds to lose. I cannot wait until it is nice out and we can start going for walks - that will help the weight come off. Still my body will never be the same - my boobs are no longer perky and my waist is wider - I guess no more junior jeans for me. My stretch marks are horrible looking but I am hoping with time they will fade.
I have to say sometimes I look at Colin and I cannot believe he is here - sometimes I do not think it is real - he is so perfect and my little miracle.

Good mamma! You have to recover too! I am TOTALLY jealous that you only have 10 pounds to lose! I still have 5 to go, but out of 40 its not bad! BTW my stretch marks have finally faded mostly so have faith!
I am really glad you are feeling better so keep pampering yourself and Colin and get those newborn snuggles while you can b/c before you know it he will be 1 and a busy boy!
