***WARNING*** I do realize that just when you think that you have something down...it changes.
So far it looks like he eats at 10pm, 2 am and then 6-7. Mike will usually do the 6 am feeding so that afterward he can just start his work day. Occasionally I will sleep til 8:30 or 9 if B lets me. So for a 5 week old I think this is pretty good.
My first day out with B alone did not go so well. B did great, me...well I know why they call it mommy brain. I went to Famous Footwear and to lunch with friends. Here is how it goes...
1. Left my cell phone in Famous Footwear.
2. B puked in the car while I was breastfeeding...couldn't exactly jump up and take care of it with my boob out, so we got covered in curdled breast milk.
3. Forgot the insert for the bottle so I couldn't top him off after the boob.
4. Left my key in the car with the doors unlocked the entire meal.
5. Looked like an idiot in front of all my friends.
I think I scared my friend who is due in February. After a good cry in the car, I headed home and vowed next time will be better.
One other life lesson learned this week...have back up batteries for the swing!
