Well it's been a rough but amazing week in my life. I was induced on Monday, delivered at 1:17 am on Tuesday, went home on wednesday. They didn't do a very good job with my epidural and I ended up with a spinal headache that was making it almost impossible to take care of my new baby. On top of that my baby's jaundice got worse and they had to admit him overnight to be under the lights for 12 hours, and I was also admitted to the hospital for a spinal patch to get rid of the headache. They separated me from my newborn and he was already having trouble latching to my breast so while he was being breast fed now he won't latch onto my breasts at all. It's the most depressing feeling, I hate that I have to pump my milk and bottle feed... He's only 5 days old so I'm hoping I can reverse it so he will drink from my breasts. I hope no one else has to go through this after they deliver.... But I'm trying to stay positive!

Same thing happened to my aunt with the epidural. Why I refuse to get one. She had such a bad migraine that she couldn't take care of her new born or her 5 year old at the time.

I had to share this picture of Raptor! He is still doing amazing! He has lost a little bit of weight but that's expected! Yesterday was our second time trying to breast feed and he latched and sucked!!! It was so amazing and I am so proud of him!

Starting TWW. Anyone else?

I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

leahbeth I'm so sorry :( hopefully your cycle continues and you get another shot next month.
babybump_user Thanks! How's the little man doing? I love all your Facebook pictures. What a cutie!!
leahbeth He's doing great. Such a little fatty lol and he's rolling all over now. ??
