Gotta love that boppy...
and so does my Mom because I take my best naps in it!
Look what I learned to do Mom!Well Eden is 3 weeks old and it feels like she's been with us forever! What a pleasure... She is loving her baths, and she will sleep for 2 hours at a time on her own... still working on it. Pooping is still a problem. For the past 10 days she only goes every 4 days when I give her a glycerin enema (one of the many pleasures of motherhood- but I really don't mind). She doesn't seem the least bit uncomfortable- thankfully- and when she does go it is nice and soft- no constipation. We are going to see the gastrointerologist a week from today. The pediatrician wants us to make sure that it isn't Hirschprung's Disease which is where a portion of the colon lacks nerve cells that stimulate it to contract. It's a little tough to hear the word disease in reference to your 3 week old... There is a greater chance that Eden is just what they call a 'normal variant' (no disease)- I prefer the term 'extra special'. I must declare from the rooftops, however, that today while shopping at Target with our very special friends Katie & Johnna- Eden pooped on her own! I have to admit that I cried a little bit! Of course, the moral of the story is that shopping really can cure anything... In all seriousness, thank you Lord!

ReplyDeleteIt's Brett's old friend, Laura. I just wanted to say that the wedding pictures and the baby pictures are beautiful. I am so glad that you and Brett found each other...what a perfect match!
You know, you will never be closer to God than right after you have a baby. Because the first time you put your lips to hers, you know that God's have just been there, breathing into her His breath of life. What a gift.
And I love her name. My mom, Jean Chennault, was at your shower and told me the story of how Brett "announced" her name. He is so good, and I know that he is a terrific father.
Congrats on your precious family. I pray for blessings upon blessings....and poop.
What a sweet baby! So darling. She looks so big already! I added your blog link to my blog- hope you don't mind. Can't wait to see the baby!
