la_belle_laideBaby story is coming soon, I promise. But first:
Haku had another seizure this morning, this time while I was feeding Callum. Even worse nightmare, ugh. (Stopping in the middle sucks for both of us.) I had to call my Mom on the phone to hold Callum while I sat with Haku till it was over, then took him out to walk it off. She also changed his diaper while I took Havoc outside and fed him.I'd been dreading Haku having a seizure while I was feeding the baby, but we all survived, no matter how bad it was.
They're both sleeping now and I'm in total worry mode about both of them. Haku because obviously this change is triggering him and I'm not sure how to control this. Callum because I'm not sure I'm making enough milk to feed him and I think I should take him to his pediatrician tomorrow to see if he's put on any weight. (He is peeing and pooping a few times a day, but it just doesn't seem like he's getting much food; I don't know. I feed him once every hour or two hours, if he can't be bothered to wake up.)
He doesn't like to fall asleep until around 5 AM, either. So that's a thing.
Anyway, I'll tell the whole story when I get a little more time.
To do list for today:
-Try to learn to use baby carrier
-Empty hospital bag (yep, still packed with my stuff, and stuff they sent home with me)
-Order actual newborn diapers, which my store doesn't seem to carry
-Order a few more things from Amazon (nursing covers etc.)
-Drink lots more water
-Cook some potatoes for dinner later
-Upload some pics
I have a ton more stuff to do, but I'm trying to keep it simple for now.

Date: 2013-05-19 05:13 pm (UTC)I'm sorry that Haku is still seizing, though. It always seems to me that everything happens when the baby needs an urgent diaper change or feeding. Or maybe that's because those things happen so much in the first few months.
Yay!

Hang in there. It will all get easier and more fun.
N'nic
ps - looking forward to hearing your baby story.
