Hey ladies!

I'm sorry I haven't been around much, but I saw that @madeline10L paged me so I thought I should pop in and say hi.

So, I had a pretty rough time starting out and talked my Dr at my 2 week c-section follow up and I started taking Zoloft then for PPA. It took a few weeks for that to kick in and things have been much better.

Will is doing great! His sleep is still pretty erratic, but he does a great job at night with going right back to sleep, and even if he's not sleeping long, he's at least not fighting it anymore. He's been very active and alert during the day, so it's been so much fun to interact with him and see his personality come out. He's so sweet and hilarious and I love just staring at him!

He's doing great with breast feeding also and is packing on the pounds. He has his 2 month visit next Monday, and I'm anxious to see where he's at now.

On a down side, AF showed up a few days ago, and I have to go back to work next Thursday, but that also means I'll have more time to Nest!

If you got through all of that, you deserve pics of my boy!
