Birth Day

Well, it’s been a week now and I’m finally getting around to posting that our little bundle of joy has come home to be with us. Pictures are here. I lost about 20 pounds so far, of baby (6 lbs, 15 oz) and fluid and placenta. Still, that puts me about 30 lbs over where I was when I got pregnant. Here’s hoping breast feeding does wonders for me. It certainly is supposed to burn calories! Doctors suggest no strenuous exercise or dieting until 6 weeks post partum, so just trying to eat healthy and take walks between now and then. Actually, the main priority is just keeping baby fed, diapered and happy. Once that’s taken care of, I can take care of myself. 6 weeks maternity leave is the plan.
