Last post was 39 weeks pregnancy-wise. Didn't even make it to 40 weeks (so much for
alpha_angel getting to attend as she was still at Festival) as little AJBM decided to turn up a few days early. All went well and we are still slightly stunned at apparently how textbook things went, continuing the boring normal pregnancy trend. Healthy 3.8 kg baby girl born at 8:41 am on the Sat of Easter.
Trying to make notes/describe the experience for posterity/future reference before I forget too many of the details - She is already 9 days old, but it has taken this long to be awake enough to settle down and type.
( Follow for details which may be TMI )
Long enough post. There may or may not be more details of the following week and a bit (breast ENGORGEMENT, odd milestones), but for now I suspect milk bar may be required shortly, given her (and Z's) nap between 2pm and 5pm. I may regret having stayed awake and typing this rather than sleeping, but I did sleep 6am-9am and 10-noon and was feeling the stress of just being a bundle of bodily functions rather than a thinking human being. I had been prepared for her being mainly bodily functions but not how much it would take me to the same level. I know it will get better, but I may be better off not thinking about on what time scale for now...
