We Made It Through The First Week

The last week has flown by, and we are settling into a new routine around our house. Thade is staying busy at school, and James is back to work, and missing his kiddos. I’m keeping up around the house with the little ones. Agnes is doing well, and sleeping a ton. It makes me a little nervous, the boy’s never slept, so it is really strange to have a newborn that loves to sleep. Dylan has taken on the role of big brother, and he is really enjoying being a big kid, and not the baby anymore.

I’ve set a goal to nurse Agnes for at least 6 months, but this time around it isn’t going as well as I hoped. She has a check-up later this week, so I’ll hopefully get some good advice from our family Doctor. The boy’s seemed to eat around the clock, but not little Agnes… I’ve become one worried Mommy this week.

I’ve been trying to take it easy around the house, but I’m feeling pretty good. I’ve got a post-op check-up today, so we’ll see what the Doctor says. I hope that it goes well, and the kiddos behave too. It is going to be a long day…

  1. I had a hard time getting Averie into the nursing routine. I wanted to quit several times but we have found a very happy place with nursing throughout the day and then getting a bottle before bed. I don’t know if that will help or not, but it is worth a shot! Glad to hear that you guys are setteling in.

  2. Hi Nicole, Luck you to have a baby that sleeps! There’s SO much to worry about with babies, isn’t there? Hopefully the doctor can put your mind at ease.
    Sending hugs and prayers!

  3. My Jake slept 22 hours a day in the beginning, where Sam slept for 15 minutes every hour all. day. long. Funny how kids can be so different.

    Hope you are doing well, Nico. Sounds like your family is very happy 🙂 .
