Supply & Demand

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: May 7, 2010

My supply of breastmilk has increased.  I couldn’t tell until I pumped on Tuesday.  In the old days, I used to get about 1 oz of milk out of both boobs & it took me about 30 minutes to get that much.  I mentioned that on Tuesday I didn’t feed Jeremy that evening & night [...]

Edema

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: May 6, 2010

In the previous post, I mentioned that I had a doctor’s appointment.  I made it because I have another potentially serious health issue.  I don’t know if I mentioned that my feet were swollen before Jeremy’s birth, (I called them Shrek feet). My feet got more swollen after I delivered, and my legs were swollen [...]

Hard as a rock

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: May 5, 2010

While nursing Jeremy in the wee hours on Tuesday, I was a bit more uncomfortable than usual on my right side.  Poor nipple.  I wrote it off as a bad latch, and thought no more of it until Tuesday afternoon.  I was nursing Jeremy again around 4 pm.  The left side was fine.  The right [...]

Tune in to Tokyo

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: April 28, 2010

While nursing Jeremy, he has a tendancy to pop off if he’s; bored,  gassy, or getting full.  He also tends to fall asleep on the job.  In the past, he’s tweaked his “surroundings” shall we say, but it was always unintentional.  Well, now that he’s discovered his hands, I think he’s doing it on purpose.  [...]

Swollen feet now?

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: April 16, 2010

The first few days after I came home from the hospital, my feet & legs were so swollen that they were sore.  I guess I was retaining a lot of fluids.  The soreness went away as the swelling went down, and faded to feeling like pins & needles before my feet felt normal. As of [...]

Update after OB appt

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: February 23, 2010

We went to the chiropractor, where Janice was surprised to see us.  Lying on the body cushion was not comfy today – in fact, I felt like I was going to puke.  After we left, LB was all a flutter.  In general, Little Bean has slowed down a lot, but there are still these moments [...]

Mood Ring Day

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: February 12, 2010

If I had a mood ring, I suspect it would be changing colours so often it might get confused & end up getting stuck and looking mottled or like a rainbow.  Mostly, I’m stuck in the negative end of the spectrum – tired, annoyed, frustrated & uncomfortable.  The day hasn’t been all bad or anything.  [...]

Hic!

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: February 10, 2010

Little Bean has the hiccups, and as usual it feels strange.   Poor  Baby Bean!  I couldn’t help laughing at first.  I was just reading about the baby is practicing breathing now, and surfactant is being secreted in it’s lungs, and as a result, the baby may suffer from hiccups a lot more now.  As if [...]

Feeling weird

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: February 2, 2010

Tonight when I was starting to eat dinner, I was starting to feel weird and very uncomfortable.    I visited the bathroom, and came downstairs.  Laying down on the couch relaxing, with my mom rubbing my feet,  I just felt “off”.  Even in such a position, I wasn’t feeling very good.  I didn’t feel like finishing [...]

Holy mackerel! What a wiggly worm!

Posted by: celtgoddess23 on: February 2, 2010

This little bean has been moving nonstop since I woke up.  The constant activity is tiring me out.  I could so go for a nap right now!  I also have that lovely feeling of tremendous pressure down in my nether regions, as if something is sticking out of me.  Ick.  Baby, whatever body part of [...]
