but have been trying to get back into living my life again. The first few weeks were horribly hard, I was so physically beat up and weak from the prior months. I was having post partum and anxiety, not a good combo! But I am getting better and stronger with each day.

Luke is up to 8 lbs! He'a an eatting machine and I can barely keep up with him, my poor nipples! Yikes! Lots of good diapers too :) We have a few concerns about his eyes, he isn't traking or looking at much, but is showing some improvement. I really thought he was totally blind for about a week, very horrible. Will take him to the specailist on the 24th of Aug so we'll know more.

He is showing signs of reflux, but nowhere near as bad as poor Wyatt had it and still does at 4 yrs old. Luke is a sweet baby and pretty easy to please. A lot easier than Wyatt was, he cried all of the time from the reflux, it was terrible. We are happy Luke seems to be very content. We feel fortunate and are happy to be a family all under one roof!

I peek in, but am just so busy right now, I hope you understand.

Love Tess

Hi Tess!

Glad Luke is happy and growing like a weed.  Sorry you're feeling anxious and down though... I hope that resolves soon.

Thomas had terrible reflux (and constant screaming) too, so you give me hope that the second one can be easier!

Hope that Luke's appt with the specialist goes well.  Let us know.

hugs,

Nope, I don't understand. :P

 

I'm glad you are feeling better.  I have anxiety and depression issues, without the new baby, so I understand just how draining that can be.  (((Hugs)))
