Diapers don't bother me near as much as I had expected. Smell or sight. They always used to, but not now. I'm guessing there is some sort of off switch in us for when it is our baby. Cecily was the first child I ever changed and it wasn't hard even at first. The toughest thing is keeping her legs under control when I'm working. She's still a kicker. (Soccer player?)
We had our first pediatrician visit today. All went well. She's already gaining a little from when we brought her home. She went' from about 6 lbs 15 oz to 7 lbs 1 oz. We were told that they can loose as much as 10% of their birth weight (she was 7 lbs 11 oz brand new). At two weeks, she should be passing her birth weight.
Sleep is a luxury, but I can't seem to find myself partaking a lot when it's daylight. I've been a stay-at-home-husband for almost four months now and I have this need to work when it's daylight. So, I do dishes, laundry, cooking, and cleaning all day long like I did before. Only, it isn't near as efficient. One, because I'm so tired, and two, because every time Cecily makes a noise I run to investigate.
Cecily seems to be doing great. She's awake when she should be and sleeps most of the day. Feeding is regular at about 3 hour intervals and she's going through diapers just about how she should. I don't want to jinx it, but I think we got a calm(er) one.
