I Get To Keep My Baby A Bit Longer

This post is probably the most amazing post I've read by an autism mama in a long time. (Omg, go over and give her some love, she just had a miscarriage :( )

Jeanie really expresses very well a lot of my experience with my Little Man - the tantrums over nap time. And once you get him down for a nap, it's so hard to get him up! lol

My son has small vocal cords because of his apraxia/dyspraxia and it can lead to problems later, but at the moment, I have to say, like Jeanie, I like his little voice. We just have a lot in common.

And like her, I also sometimes appreciate the fact he acts younger and I get to hold on to my baby for just a little longer.

One Week Old

Baby's cord stub fell off today and he's one week old. We should have a cake.

My body has changed in the last week, it's hard to believe. Pre-pregnancy, I was 105. Went up to 132lbs at the highest. Was 120 when I got home from the hospital. Today I'm 115.

Best quote of the day from Hubby in regards to Baby: "omg, he's so cute, he could sh*t in a plate and I couldn't get angry."

Second best quote from Hubby while speaking to the diaper service pick up guy while I'm yelling in the background for them to wait because I have one more: "what? wait, my wife has something to tell you....*runs upstairs to see me and I hand him a poopy diaper*...oh, um, here's another diaper." My wife has something to tell you. LOL
