and the weigh in...

May 02, 2010

i dont know if i mentioned it in my other blog but we had to bring Gabby back to the dr. on friday to check her weight. she was born at 5 pound 13 ounces but she got down to about 5 pounds 4 oz so the doc was worried about her gaining weight, so we went back to the doctor this week and she was 6 lbs 2 oz! yay! almost a pound. i had to up her formula, i started pumping breast milk and i dont get even close to what she needs..i pump 10-20 ml each time and she takes up to 90! she's a big eater!! but i felt much better knowing that she gained some weight. she can wear socks now ( even the preemie ones we have for her were to big!) and can almost fit into a new born onesie without being completely swallowed! im trying to let my milk dry up but i keep getting clogged ducts and its mega painful! so i just pump and dump mostly because gabby is also alergic to something in my regular diet..


in me news i have been really bad about my vitamins, really bad, and since i had gabby i haven't been even the slightest bit hungry, so i forget to eat and when i do eat its just apple jacks..or string cheese. i cant decide if im depressed or not, which most likely means im not, prolly just being lazy. i think i might of torn something internally and that kinda blows, it hurts on my lower left side, i had a c section for those of you that dont know. my moms dog was up on the table eating my sons food so i stood up really quickly to get him off the table and when i did i felt instant and intense pain in my tummy it's gotten better but it still burns when i walk around alot or stand up to fast.  i can't wait to see how much i weigh..my scale broke when we moved and i haven't weighed myself since before i had Gabby and then it was 197 which put me at a 19 pound weight gain from before i was pregnant. i did lose some weight during my first trimester thanks to morning sickness..but  i am going by the weight i was at my last appointment with my surgeon which was 178 so i would love to see that number on the scale or less, less would be better!  but i will take what i can get. 

wish me luck!
