OK people, I'm typing one-handed here. anyone bothered by typos and the like can come over and take dictation.
Baby boy has a name. For blog purposes, let's call him Nate.
Nate likes to nurse. all the time. It reminds me of Kali's growth spurts, except that it's not just for a few days. It's constant, and sleep is scarce. I don't remember being this exhausted with Kali, probably because most of the time I wasn't.
We have such a lovely community here... people have been bringing us delicious dinners and generally spoiling us rotten. And between our parents, and the babysitter, and Mr. D's two weeks off work... well, I can just hole up in my bed if I want to. Why is it that I'm too stupid to take full advantage?
I wish I had something witty or entertaining to write, but my brain is too fried for that. In the meantime, I'll leave you with a list of posts I'd like to write sometime:
- reflections on doctor friends and elective cesaerian sections
- gems of parenting wisdom, in-law style
- why I love my midwives
- what do you give the parents who have everything?
OK, Nate's eyes are closed now. Nitey nite.

Get pregnant. See heartbeat. Tell everyone. Miscarry. Get angry. Bitter. Bitter. Still bitter. Fertility testing. PCOS. Treatment. Pregnant. Hold breath... hold breath... hold breath... and exhale. Finally a mommy, minus my innocence. I am so lucky. It's not always fun, but it is entertaining... to my readers. Any resemblance to good advice, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Welcome to the dream factory.

OH, take advantage of it - go lay down!!
I can't wait to hear those posts - especially the in-laws one. I love a good in-law story.
The spoiling is great, isn't it?
Enjoy, and I still owe you a lasagna. Next week; maybe I'll make two on Tisha b'Av & freeze one for you. Not doing anything ELSE, right??? :-)))
I'm so glad for you, this is amazing....now when do i get to see that baby? And hug you? :)
Hi there! I've been woefully remiss in reading your blog for too many months to count. Congratulations on Nate's emergence into the world, and I really loved the natural childbirth story too. That's neat, even if it was painful. Anyway, I'm suffering from Sara-withdrawal. Gotta update my contact info for you. Email me at sara.melangell@gmail.com if you like, or search me out on Facebook, or whatever. I miss you!!!
