Nursing

The thing with nursing is that you never really know how much your baby is eating.  I know Connor eats well and often.  I know he's gaining weight and growing, so I'm not worried about him or his health.  But I am curious.  ;)  Well, tonight Connor slept from 9:30pm to 5:30am!  That's right!  My 4 week old baby boy slept 8 hours!!!  :D  This is AWESOME because I got some much needed sleep.  Actually, he may have slept longer, but when Michael asked me if I wanted him to get Connor up, I was really full and uncomfortable, so I said yes.  Since I remember what it was like with Avery to nurse while being this full, I knew that if Connor ate on one side, I'd leak on the other, so I decided to pump on that side.  After it was all said and done I had managed to pump 5 ounces as well as give Connor a very full belly!  :D  I feel very accomplished!  Back to sleep now with the victory of lots of milk, being "deflated" again, and lots of sleep to keep me happy!  :D  Night!
