Squirt made his appearance into the world April 10, 2014. He was 21.25 inches long and 8lbs 11oz.
He's such a good baby so far, except for the up-all-nighters constantly feeding. But I don't mind. Though we had to supplement with formula 4 times already due to the pain on my side.
Breastfeeding is going okay. Squirt didn't figure out latching so I'm having to use a nipple shield at the moment. We will get it one day however.
Little E is already interested in Squirt and hasn't shown jealousy... Yet. I do get a little sad because due to feeding Squirt and having just had a baby I feel like Little E gets ignored sometimes by me. Just like last night I went to put Little E to bed because I didn't spend much time with him one-on-one yesterday, but in the middle of reading him a very short book Squirt wanted to eat. Other nights I didn't even get to tell him goodnight, I just had to go in a kiss him goodnight while he was already asleep.
But Little E is doing so well. I can't wait to get over this bump and be able to spend more time alone with him. Even if it's just spending time while Squirt sleeps and not spending time trying to clean or feed a baby instead.
For now Little E and Big E went out and I'm going to get the laundry folded, use the bathroom, and clean up the living room a little before Squirt wakes up again. Next time I'll try to update on my weight gain during pregnancy and loss after. As well as what's going on on my side of childbirth.
