I can't believe my baby girl is 4 weeks young already!
What a ride these last 4 weeks have been. Being a mom is quite amazing i feel VERY lucky to have this gift.
Her latest tricks? Holding her pacifier, holding her head up, and having some tummy time. She even kicks her legs during tummy time --looks like shes about ready to crawl!
Due to my wicked and uber painful case of mastitis in both breasts, my milk production has been slow and Maya didn't gain enough weight in her first 2 weeks of life, so we have had to supplement with cows milk based formula. She gets the best of both worlds.
She has been doing great since we started the formula and is up to 7 pounds 9 ounces as of her last appointment.
I keep sayng what a great sleeper she is and how i have to wake her for every feeding, and then on friday she stayed up from 8am to 10pm straight! NO SLEEP for her or me. That was not so fun. It is great that she's starting to stay up a little bit after each feeding though, not just passing out. It's nice to hang out with her. I just love to stare at her beautiful face.
When the sun is out i have been going for little walks and slowly going back out into the world. I went to the bank and the market both were sort of surreal really.
Pedja is back working full time - he only got 1 week off after she was born--and doing daddy duty at night. He and Maya have a great and special bond which is so sweet to watch. She is a daddy's girl for sure.
