Growing Girl

We had another weight check today at the pediatrician’s office. Lucy gained another 4 ounces, putting her 4 ounces shy of her birth weight. It wasn’t as fast of a weight gain as the first 4 ounces, but we were supplementing with formula at that time and have since stopped doing so. The doctor seemed pleased with the weight gain and said that Lucy is definitely getting enough to eat. That makes me feel a lot better about myself. Even if I only produce as much as I am now, I know that she’s getting plenty and I am...

Discouraged

November 29, 2009 in Lucy, Parenting

It’s been 8 days now since I’ve been nursing and pumping, and I’m getting really frustrated and discouraged. It looks like my milk has come in and, while Lucy nurses a minimum of 15 minutes and sometimes closer to 30 minutes, she still seems...

Apparently, I’m Selfish

I finally got my seasonal flu shot. I have been trying for *weeks* to get one from my primary care physician’s office and was added to a waiting list I was told was four pages long. Last week, I got the call that they...

Sleepless Nights

November 17, 2009 in Lucy

We really thought yesterday was going to be it. I started having regular contractions 5 minutes apart and 1 minute in duration Sunday night around 8 p.m. I drank water, and that didn’t help. We called the after hours number and were told it...

37 Week Belly Shot

November 15, 2009 in Lucy

Here I am at 37 weeks. I love this shirt, but I don’t think it’s very flattering to my belly in pictures. My belly just looks like a big lump. And here’s my first bare belly shot. I’m thinking my belly is going to...

The Scalini’s Legend

November 14, 2009 in Lucy

One of my friends swears that the Eggplant Parmigiana at a local restaurant makes women go into labor. I always thought it was just a coincidence, but when I checked out their Web site, I noticed they have a gallery dedicated to their “Eggplant...
