Back On The Wagon.. Finally..

First of all I just want to say thank you soooo much to everyone that helped me out when my nursing questions, I never expected to get so many comments on my blog and facebook and even text messages.. I feel so blessed and loved that you all took the time out of your busy lives to help me out, so thank you so much, you really don't know how much you all helped me! 

Right now I am just taking it one day at a time with the feeding thing, trying to do my best. I had probably one of THE worst days yesterday since we got home from the hospital, just feeling inadequate and way in over my head, and overwhelmed. This morning when I woke up, Maelee smiled at me for the first time and I knew everything was going to be okay, she thinks I'm doing just fine and that is all that matters to me. 

So I am almost 7 weeks post-partum and am really ready to get back into my old skin, usually your doctor will give you the okay to start working out at 4 weeks post-partum but that wasn't the case for me since I had the infection. So I saw my doctor today for him to check my incision and it is finally healed enough that I can get back to my normal- well almost normal- routine. It has been about 10 months since I have REALLY exercised and I cannot wait to get back on that wagon!! Not because I want to loose weight but because I miss the feeling of being in shape and healthy and having the added energy you get. I was really really lucky with my pregnancy and only gained about 30lbs and have already dropped most of that. I weighed at the doctors office today and I have about 5lbs left to loose to be back to my pre-pregnancy weight, I know-I know- I feel really lucky! So, starting tomorrow I am back to my exercise routine, it's not going to be easy and I'm going to have to still take it easy because my incision and insides are still healing, but I cannot wait!!
