West

I came home from the hospital on Sunday, June 14th. It was so incredibly nice to be home, and in my own bed. I spent the next couple of weeks recovering from my c-section. And I'll tell you, it really wasn't that bad. I thought that I wouldn't be able to do much and would be stuck in bed or on the couch but I was up that night with Austin and up the next day getting laundry done and all the other fun house chores. I didn't really have a choice because I needed to be there for my baby, and I had felt so miserable when I was pregnant from retaining all the fluid that once I wasn't pregnant anymore I felt great. It was like I didn't know how horrible I had felt pregnant until I wasn't pregnant. Yes, I was sore but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle. Plus the reward that I got was well worth the pain. Austin is just the most pefect baby. He sleeps very good at night, usually only waking up twice to eat and then right back down. He breastfeeds like a champ. He is a very mellow baby and really only cries if he is hungry or needs his diaper changed. Joey and I are having such a great time being parents and Austin being so patient as we learn his needs and how to take care of him. I couldn't ask for any more...
