My life as a new MOM!!
Jul 08, 2010
Hello,
It has been a long time since my last post! I have been enjoying life a new mother. My son Gabriel is seven months as of July 1st. He was born for those of you don't know December 1, 2010 @ Park Plaza Hospital in Houston, TX @ 0718 at 6 lb 11.5 oz via an emergency c- section (Ouch)!!! I have only a few pictures off my little man up. I have not had time to hook up the camera to upload off those photos but I will. (I hope)!!!!
I have been living life to the fullest but now, and just now am I ready to start getting my physical health back in shape. I work at night, and the days are so cruel. When I get off at 7 o'clock I just want to sleep, but Gabriel has other plans. I find myself snacking all day on the wrong things. When we go to the store I don't even have the will power to not throw all kind of crazy things in the cart. My sweetie just looks at me and smiles he say " You know what your doing"! I get mad but hey I'm at home all day with a very active baby who takes no doze and coffee just before I get off from work so he can stay up and play with mommy all day until dad gets home and takes ever. I'm so tired I can't even find the strength to put him in the stroller and walk. I had all my labs done and everything was in the gutter. The doctor said he doesn't know how I'm not in a ditch!!! I was so deficient that I needed prescription everything from B-12 to Iron. Thank God for flex spending account on all those meds plus the B-12 is not covered anymore so not I have to pay out of pocket for it, and the needles one shot every 15 days.
O.k. so now I'm looking for ways to get back on track. I might do the message boards or seek out a support buddy to help hold me accountable. Here are my stats!!
Pre-Op: 412
Day of Surgery: 386
One year ann: 265
Lowest: 226
Pregnancy: 234
Delivery day: 271
June 2010: 261
I want to thanks those of you who on the backline knew about the baby and sent gift's or cards. I pray that everyone is doing well in their journey.
Lesley
