Today we gave Adina her first bath in a bath tub, to be distinguished from just washing her with a face cloth. Dr. Sears had talked about babies not always liking baths, but I can share that Adina takes after her bath obsessed mother and loved it. We ended up using the shower on her a bit and she really liked that. It was all good because she was starting to smell like sour milk and yogurt and now she smells clean. It might have also helped with her dry skin. (we were just using plain water before and now we have actual baby soap)

My hand is making huge improvements. It sounds silly but the way I sort of have tracked improvement is in putting up my hair. On Thurs-Sun it was just excruciating to try to put my hair back in a ponytail. And slowly the last few days I have felt improvement and can now actually put my hair back without any twinges. I still have to watch things and be careful how I hold the baby, or well anything else, but I can use it, sort of again.

Overall, my mood is on an upswing and has been for a few days now here, but because I go dark so often because of just not having me-time anymore, I wanted to share some of the things that had been keeping me down sometimes.

Other TMI improvements )

In other news, we are getting rid of our old dishes and switching to Fiestaware. I love all the bright cheerful colors and plan to get a mix of colors so I don't need to worry about something being discontinued.
