Bimmer is such a growing girl! She is hell-bent on not staying a teeny baby
for long. It breaks her mommy's heart!
This week, she started taking 4 ounces in some of her bottles. And she can
even hold her head up for longer than 15 seconds at a time during tummy time!
Whenever Puff is holding her and trying to do something (ex: making a bottle
one-handed) she likes to practice her neck muscle skills and "head-butt" her
daddy. Her hair is starting to get lighter too. And her hematoma on her head is almost totally gone. Yay!
She still loves to be held, which makes my life a bit difficult during the
day to get anything done. She did sleep in her swing for the first time this
week though. Um... never mind that I had to hold her for a good half hour first
to make sure she was in a deep sleep. And we locked it in a stationary position,
so there was no actual swinging. But it was a nice break for me to actually eat
some lunch, take a shower, and pre-write a blog or two!
Quick update on my recovery... My incision is healing really nicely and in
general, I feel pretty good. Puff and I have been taking walks with her since
she was 8 days old, so I am slowly getting some light exercise. I am off the
pain pills, but lifting or bending or stooping is still awkward. I had gained 48
pounds with the pregnancy and am down to only needing to lose about 18 to 20
more pounds to get back to my pre-baby weight! I know it will take some work
once I am cleared for normal activity, but dropping that much in just 3 weeks is
definitely a good morale boost!
