Week 1

Today Hailey is a week old.  Part of me wants to say it went by fast and part of me can't believe it's only been a week.  There have been ups and downs of course.  So far *knock on wood* she sleeps through the night pretty well.  My times up with her when she does get up seem to be longer than they were though.  Her eating habits are crazy (to me) and sometimes I fear she's not getting enough, even though I can't force her to eat haha.  Sitting here "recovering" isn't sitting well with me.  I feel like I'm wasting time, even though I probably wouldn't be doing anything anyway.  Breastfeeding right now seems like such an ordeal to me, but I'm still working out the kinks.  I don't know how I'll get it to where I can do it in public with ease. 
I have a major case of the baby blues.  My emotions are all out of wack.  I worry about things I know I shouldn't and I can't help myself haha.  Everyone tells me to relax and things will work out...that it's only been a week..and they are right, it's just hard convincing my head of the same thing.  She is great though.  She's a pain to burp because she is always trying to lift up her head haha.  She's also quite alert, sometimes just sitting there awake looking around. 
 Matt takes very good care of me.  He has been wonderful....my rock.  I really haven't been resting like I should be, and he's trying to get me to.  He prepares my meals, does the laundry, changes diapers without a complaint, and would do anything I asked him to.  Sometimes I wish he could breastfeed her haha.  Thank you babe for being so wonderful! I love you.
