2/24 - Milk started coming in Thursday evening. Joy is a good nurser.
2/26 - Joy's cord fell off. Noah called it the "umbilicord" when talking with Faith about it. Faith is very excited about the bellybutton.
2/27 - Faith, talking about Joy's hiccups, "Baby 'Oy had hip-up twenty-teen long time."
Things are going well. Everybody has adjustments to make. Faith loves her new little sister and likes to hold her a lot. She is having a bit of a hard time with the reduced Mommy time. She gets weepy about things that weren't such a big deal before. Noah is more of a silent sufferer, but I can sense he is also adjusting. Jonathan seems to be doing great and he is very helpful. He loves to check in on Joy throughout the day.
Jon and Mom are wonderful about doing lots of work and letting me rest.
I'd been having these strange contractions for a few days. Not the simple Brackston-Hicks that I have throughout pregnancy that feel tight but do not hurt. Not crampy labor contractions, either. They were very tight and they hurt. They came usually when I was sitting – on the couch or in the dining room – and relief came rather quickly if I stood up. This baby didn't want me sitting down! I talked to my friend Mary on Sunday (2/20) who had had similar ones with her son – for 26 days! I figured I could deal with it for another week and a half or so.
