I'm so ready for this baby to be out but I know I need to slow my roll because I'm still a few days away from my due date. I think I'm just feeling extra anxious because my mom is here, and I want her to have as much time with the baby as possible before she flies back. Plus, everything is packed and all the projects are done, so I feel like I'm just sitting around waiting for things to start happening.
I'm also thrown by going later than I did with DS1. But like I said, I clearly need to calm the eff down.

We were supposed to have my SS this weekend but plans got shifted. I still kept today’s newborn shoot because rescheduling wouldn’t work. We ended up taking some family shots and I’m feeling crappy about it because he wasn’t here. They’re corny and I don’t think he’d care tbh, but I hate ‘excluding’ him. It’s hard coordinating anything with the bigger age gap between the kids and schedule changes.

Who else has a velcro baby? She just spent 10 minutes not being held and that was the longest stretch so far.

We have been cluster feeding all day. She has been eating every hour since 8 this morning. I was able to get a 2 hour stretch so I could nap this afternoon but looks like this feeding is continuing into the night. Fx she is up in weight tomorrow morning.

We have N's first ped appointment today. They wanted her in sooner because her bili level was high at discharge. My H has job so it'll just be me and her. She's eating a ton but not pooing much so I'm afraid they'll shame me on how much I'm feeding her and that we'll have to take her back to the hospital to go under the lights.

Flameful here. I've been ambivalent (at best) about nursing and reading everyone's posts about nursing (both the woes and the more positive posts) is making me dread the whole thing even more. It's just reminding me of how stressful the whole thing was with DS and how it took away from my ability to bond with him at all in those early days. Is 40w3d too late to decide I don't want to BF? I know I'm late to the party and you've gotten lots of support already, but here to commiserate. I decided to not attempt to BF this time and go straight for EFF. Lots of emotions involved in that decision, but I'm relieved as well. Do whatever works best for you and baby. ❤
