Wednesday the 11th (January), First Peds appointment

Ben had his first peds appointment, and exposure to rain. I think he liked being rained on. He was pretty good throughout. I was tired and vulnerable; nipples burning and had a blister on one, eyes started to tear up while we were in the waiting room. Left a msg. with the lactation consultant, and bought a new nursing bra. Polyester sucks; it’s really the enemy.

He looked really cute in his Hanna Andersson bunting, which I call the spork (because of the sporklike fleece spurting up from the top of the hood).

He’s waaaay cute. Hung out with us tonight on the dining room table in his car seat; Jake made dinner (from food people brought us; he cooked veggies). He’s really tired; I think he’s gonna need a break soon, like, help with the laundry or something. We’re going to have lots of visitors Saturday, and some tomorrow (Friday’s free). So far he’s had lots.
