A Happier Mother's Day

Last year Mother's Day was a pretty rough day for me. We had been trying to get pregnant for so long and thought we finally made it all work.... but I started my period before church on Mother's Day and was pretty upset by it. Then when I got to church, there was a couple announcing their pregnancy, which as happy as I was for them, I made me more upset about not being pregnant. And then to top it off, someone (who had no idea we were trying to get pregnant) made a joke about me not being able to celebrate mother's day as a mother and that I needed to get working on that... or something along those lines. I think I stayed at church a total of 10 minutes and came back home and say and cried. It was a rough day...

This year on Mother's Day I get to hold my two wonderful little babies :) And celebrate their two month birthday!! (Don't worry... I'll post pictures later)

Kyle even got me a Mother's Day present - a poopy diaper :) I never thought I would be so excited about a poopy diaper - but when the little dude hadn't pooped for almost five days, it's something to celebrate for sure!!

Poop, Spit Up, Milk, and Big Boy Jammies

We have been having poopy issues this week. Kyle has not pooped since Tuesday. Yesterday afternoon he started trying and passing pretty smelly gas. It's normal for breastfed babies not to poop for a day or two sometimes, so I wasn't really concerned until he started trying to poop. I called the doctor this morning and they said that breastfed babies don't get constipated too often, but sometimes need a little help. The nurse told me a couple things to try, so we'll do that and see if it helps Kyle poop.

We have had less spit up between the two of them. We have been not letting them over eat and for the most part they are keeping their food down better. We are still having spit up every once in a while, but it's not every feeding anymore and when they do spit up, it's not as much as it was before.

My milk supply has gone crazy. Most of the time I am producing twice as much as what the babies eat when I pump! Hopefully it keeps up :)

Kyle has official outgrown newborn jammies! His newborn onsies and clothes still fit him, he's just too long for the jammies, so he's now wearing 0-3 months jammies - he's growing up so fast!
