wrecked
i got 3 hours of sleep last night. 3. i got asher down at about 4:40am only to have him wake back up 6am for another 2 oz feeding. i fed him, rocked him back to sleep and put him in bed at 7 for him to merely wake right back up. steve was up by this time and took him downstairs to rock him back to sleep. he thought asher was asleep so he brought him back upstairs to me and put him in his sleeper. but, he woke back up. i finally brought him downstairs at 7:30am, fed him another 2oz and he finally fell asleep around 8:30. but then i had to pump another 5 oz off me, sterilize everything and then realized that if i was going to get a shower in today, i better jump on the chance while the boy was sleeping.
so i'm clean and i'm going to be fed here in a minute...but i'm still exhausted. i had to shower...it had been a few days...i have to eat to keep my milk supply up...but i have to sleep to function. which do you choose first? i've only been supplementing with formula for 18 hours...and already, i'm exhausted...and i thought formula fed babies slept longer!?!
wow! i just saw a turkey run through my neighbors yard...am i delusional? seriously, a turkey, in holt. and i don't live in the country. maybe i am delusional. a friggin' turkey! crazy!!
oh man, the boy's waking up...i guess there goes breakfast! note to self...breakfast before blogging!

I am glad you are happy with the feeder, lesser of two evils, right? I also totally agree with you on the convenience factor with nursing. I really didn't even need to take a diaper bag with me if I went anywhere those first few weeks. Just my twins :)
Take care, I will watch for your next blog at about 3:45 am :) Ahhh motherhood. Our prayers are with you!
