so we made it through the first week! whew! it's tiring to say the least. chloe is doing really well. had a bit of jaundice so had to get her heel pricked and levels checked 3 times this week after having phototherapy and LOTS of eating. luckily, she's on the recovery train and has gained some weight back since delivery. as of yesterday she was 8 pounds 4 ounces, so i guess our what feels like constant nursing regimen has done it's job. i feel very lucky that i've been successful getting her to breastfeed even though i sometimes feel like that's all we seem to do. last night we had a marathon nursing session for 4 hours. man....that's tiring. but afterwards, she slept for 4 hours and i actually woke her up to eat again. anyway, we're all doing well. considering the sleep deprivation. chloe is amazing and i can't even believe that we made her together. jimmeh says that it's the best thing we've ever done together. every day she changes and does something new and it's just fascinating! enjoy the new pics and video.
