KEEP Isn't sleep deprivation a source of torture that they use in War? *Updated*

DAY 8

Ok  last night Kate was naughty, I'm trying so hard to write and keep on my blog to remember this beautiful girl. But I'm sooooo sleep deprived that ALL I want her to do is sleep and I want to sleep and ahhh...thats not fair! They are only little for such a SHORT time that I want to take it all in!!!

But one thing she is doing that I LOVE is that she is a smily baby!! ALL she does is smile smile smile!! She's been a good baby in when she is full she is content , goes to sleep, and has a clean diaper. BUT our Mt. Everest has been NURSING!

She latches on, sucks and then starts crying....then latches on sucks and then again starts crying. I don't know why

Also my milk coming in has been so painful. I can't sleep on my side, my chest is so painful, engorge and it hurts to nurse. I think I know what a breast augmentation feels like, ugh, I'm in so much pain. WHY oh WHY don't we remember these things. LOL. ?!?!? This is why I'm journaling it down, incase I get the crazy thought of getting pregnant again.

My hip, pelvic bone, and all of the bones by my hips are still so sore. I can get up now a TON better and walking is now not such a chore.

But all of my complaining, and the one thing I do know that it was all worth it, is my beautiful Kate. She is so beautiful and I LOVE her tiny cheeks, nose, eyes, everthing about her. She loves to be with me, she knows me.....she knows my voice....my sweet girl.

You should check to see if her tongue is tied. Often that will cause a baby to latch on and suck, then cry. My baby had it. My doctor clipped her tongue, a really simple procedure (but don't watch . . . sad) and then she immediately nursed with no trouble right after. It will feel a lot better to you too, if she can latch on correctly. Anyway, just an idea. Good luck, hang in there! Don't give up and try not to give her a bottle. Nursing is so much better for her!
