I can hardly believe Lydia is 4 weeks old today! We're working on getting into a schedule. When she's up every 3 hours (Old habits die hard, for those in the health care field I almost wrote Q 3 Hours. Hoo Boy) to eat, my sleep is very shattered. I feel like I'm feeding, diapering, pumping, washing bottles over and over and over...
Today I actually folded and put away all the laundry! And we went to pick up a box from FedEx. A friend from High School that I was reunited with on Facebook sent me a TON of hand-me-downs from her daughter, some still had the tags on them!
Fred didn't get home from work until after 8, Lydia was napping so we were able to eat at a relatively relaxed pace.
I need to call the doctor to have my incision checked. It itches, and is still draining. I have no fever, the area is not hot to the touch, It isn't red, and I don't think the drainage smells, but 4 weeks later, I think I'd stop draining by now!
I got coupons in the mail yesterday for free Kraft Cheese, Free Nabisco Crackers, and Free Planters nuts. Cool. Free is always good.
I'm trying to upload pictures, but Xanga is not cooperating... Chrysler Financial's site is not cooperating either! Grrr

Did you used to work as a nurse? I had two of my c-section incision sites get infected. I could totally tell they were infected though. Red, puffy, itchy. Thats awesome you got hand me down! My favorite!
Boy time is flying... I no time she'll be crawling out a window to see her boyfriend. lol!
wow - 4 weeks already! it DOES go fast, huh? and hooray for free things! now, it sounds like you should have a party - cheese and crackers, nuts, you're almost there!
4 weeks already?! WOW. Time flies. Glad you got to eat dinner with Lydia sleeping
Aw Pierce is 4 weeks today!
What kind of closure do you have on your incision? My doctor uses disolveable stitches and dermabond skin glue. He used it with both my sections and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. No draining, nothing to remove, no dressings. And it heals SOOO fast. You can barely see mine now. And the glue washes off all on its own. I think more doctors should use this method!
