2. Her skin is just so soft, and everything is just so little. And she makes adorable faces when she's sleeping.
3. When Ella gives mixed signals- I wish babies could talk! She's eating her hands, so I think she's hungry. I start feeding her, and 5 min. later she starts crying. I think maybe she has a little gas, I try to burp her- nothing; and more adorable little whimpering noises. She's eating her hands again, so I try again to feed her. More little cries. She yawns- so I try to rock her to sleep. Nothing. Then the cycle just starts again... eep.
4. If she's been fussy for a while, and I rock her and rock her, and I finally get her to sleep. I feel like its such a sweet victory!

Your comments could have been written by me when I was expecting your Dad...except he would "throw up" and I took a towel with me everywhere I went! But he gained weight and the doctor assured me everything was OK. I think most new Moms want everything to be perfect- and it is not. It all improves as the weeks roll by. Ella looks as though she is doing great... and living in the land of luxury!
ReplyDeleteOh... forgot to say, your Dad latched on to a pacifier and it helped out a great deal. (Not all babies do because then Alex spit his out and didn't want it (oh- but he sucked on his "blankie".
ReplyDeleteYour Dad went on to have a sucking "boppie" plus a "feeling" boppie which he rubbed with his fingers (Oh, we dare not lose them!)
