Another great night and over doing it

Once again Jude slept through the night last night. He last nursed around midnight and was still sleeping when Julia came in and woke us all up at 7am this morning. I am sure he would have slept longer if his big sister had not woken him up. I am LOVING this.... I really hope he continues this.

My midwife tried to warn me before I left the hospital that I need to try to take it easy and not over do it. She knows me too well and knows that I will be back to doing everything I was doing before shortly after I get home. She is right. I know I am supposed to be taking it easy, but it is hard when I feel so good. I know I am not supposed to be carrying anything heavier than the baby, but it is hard to do. Jerrod has been a big help, but just sitting down when there is stuff to be done is just not who I am. And of course it is hard to refuse Julia when she wants picked up and held. AND Jerrod head back to work on Monday, so I am on my own at that point.

Oh, I finally weighed myself today. I am almost back down to my pre-pregnancy weight. Less than 5 pounds to go. I am also back into my regular clothes!!! Not too bad for only a week after giving birth, if I say so myself!
