[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 561213, member: 6705"] I've been here... Reading, but not posting much because it is really hard for me to type one-handed. I read a lot while feeding a sleepy baby... I can only lock eyes with her when hers are open! She has an interesting case of baby acne. One, it's about 99% on her face, and two, it comes and goes within minutes. doctor had me bring her in, we determined that was all it was... And she has been gaining an ounce a day, as she is supposed to. We're doing breastfeeding and formula, I'd say alternately but it's much more random than that. Mostly she is a terribly inefficient nurser, so I'm not producing enough milk (her nursing isn't getting the message through to my milk ducts), so I have to supplement with formula, but then she's not as hungry and so is less efficient... Catch-22 cycle. The only time we get going well is about 5 AM when I am actually engorged and she is HUNGRY because she goes to sleep about midnight... Yes, my month-old baby is mostly sleeping through the night. Except when she screams for hours... Colic hoovers. Fortunately, it's not every night - in fact not even most nights. [ATTACH=CONFIG]22[/ATTACH]My favorite pictures of her all seem to have her sitting in her Boppy, LOL! As for everyone else - I have two teenagers who are on my last, hormonal, sleep-deprived nerve, a hubby who is trying his best and I can't really fault him even if he is the world's greatest procrastinator... And I'm fighting off PPD. I've lost 32 lbs (OK, so 20 was probably day of delivery, but still - 2 lbs since Sunday). I'm almost back to my pre-pregnancy weight, which was too much. And I am eating like a horse. I'm not crying 15 times a day, but I'm fighting off random tears and am super angry on a regular basis. Oh - my blood pressure's coming back down, too. Not perfect but 142/84 compared with 157/99 a few days ago and 178/113 about 10 days ago... I'll take it. Meggie's still my joy, even when I can't figure out what's wrong... [/QUOTE]
