So I’m relieved to find that my experiences are, once again, ones that about a million women have had before me. My mom says I was just like Robin at that age, fussy all the time; Dawn mentioned in the comments to my last post that her little boy was the same way; and the doctor told me today that babies are typically very crabby from about 6 to 10 weeks\u2014something to do with their developing gastrointestinal system. Robin has been pretty farty lately, so maybe that’s it!<\/p>\n
After keeping me up all night last night he’s been sweet today; my concern is keeping him awake so we don’t have a repeat. He did have to go in the sling for today’s check-in with the doc, which again sent him straight to sleep.<\/p>\n
It was nice to see Dr. Berger again; she’s the one who delivered Robin, so her face may have actually been the first thing he ever saw. (He did not particularly seem to recognize her.) She complimented me on my weight loss and said my c-section scar looks good and that my ladyparts are pretty much back to normal. “Next time you can have a vaginal birth if you want,” she volunteered. “Oh no,” I said, “after 24 hours of labor I’m all about the c-section.”<\/p>\n
She leaned in and dropped her voice. “I’m scheduling a c-section for my next one too. I’m not a fan of drama.”<\/p>\n
“I’m not a fan of pain<\/em>,” I said, and we shared a knowing chuckle. Then we talked about some girl stuff like S-E-X, and she sent me on my way. So I guess I’m officially all convalesced!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So I’m relieved to find that my experiences are, once again, ones that about a million women have had before me.
