Your first outing

I'm still working on the play-by-play story of your birth, but I'm not quite finished yet.

Today we left the house for the first time. After a rough couple of nights I finally called and made an appointment with a lactation specialist. Yay! You were pretty happy too, because you probably had a pretty full tummy. We learned some tricks to help you get more food without causing me toe-curling pain. It's a win-win situation! Hopefully tonight goes a bit better.

You also had your first pediatrician appointment. Sorry about that heel prick! I made your dad hold you, I guess we've designated him to be the one around when there's pain involved. You were pretty mad, but once again, got over it pretty quick. You're looking a little orange, and you've lost your allotted 10% body weight, so hopefully with my milk coming in and getting better at feeding you both of those should take a turn for the better.
