Groundhog Day

That's what it feels like to me.

Everyday I am woken up by my crying baby beside me. I feed her, bathe her and put her back to sleep.

I am called down for breakfast. I have breakfast and go back up to shower.

If it's been 3 hours since I put the baby to sleep, she would be up by then. So I feed her, change her and put her back to sleep.

Repeat.

Throw in lunch and dinner at the appropriate times and you've got my day.

That's what I do everyday. I'm bored out of my mind.

Oh! Except today I went out to see a doctor to have my stitches removed. That didn't happen though cause my wound is still raw in some places and the doctor didn't wanna remove for fear of infection.

So I'm be going back to see her on Saturday. I'm told that the removing of stitches will cause my wound to hurt. Ouch! I hope it's not that bad.

Some proud parenting reporting: The princess seems to be able to sleep without being swaddled. Which is rather cool. I thought she had to be swaddled till she was about a month.

So tonight, I shall not swaddle her. She seems to be sleeping fine. Plus, I think she even might be a little happier cause she gets to stretch her arms and legs occasionally.

Her umbilical cord will probably fall off in a day or two. Most of it has detached. There only a small bit still stuck to her. I'm not going to pull it out though. Let it drop on its own.

Her hair is starting to grow back. Although I might consider putting olive oil on her head regularly to promote hair growth. Not sure if it really works or not, but it's worth a try.

The doctor said she has mild jaundice but nothing to worry about since she's already 9 days old.

Nothing else to report. I do have a photo of the princess in a dress I wanna upload. Soon, if blogger cooperates.

Oh, and I miss my husband.
