Exhausted

of course, in love with my little man... but my arms are SO tired. My hands, thumbs, and wrists are hurting from holding his head as he nurses (we have a pillow system, complete with Boppy, but the rolled up towel the lactation consultant at the hospital also positioned him with is so often forgotten, I gave up on it.)
Daddy and Alex are watching Home Improvement...
Every day is a differnt day eating wise- he spent 2 doing about 2 hours a day between during the day, and 3 1/2 at night, and I was suprised and happy, cause I could deal with that. No, he didn't keep that- he know is cluster feeding, then eating every hour or hour and a half, then sleeping for 4. Of course, that happened in the middle of the day yesterday when Steph was here, so I couldn't abuse it for a nap.
I was so tired yesterday Eric brought him to me and we did the nursing in bed- worked just fine! He was really fussy for a couple of hours... turned out, I think it was all gas. He spit up on Eric, then me, then me a couple of hours later, and then a little more this morning. So I avoided my hot chocolate :( I don't know if it did that, but I'm waiting to see.
I know he's still new, so his tummy is still working itself out. He has slowed down on the poo machine- it was insane for a couple of days.
I'm having a little stress today and yesterday in the morning when I realize that I'm hungry, and that it's so early (lost out on daylight savings time) and my day of catering to a newborn is starting. My arms ache from gholding him feeding and otherwise (I'm going to have great biceps!) and other things are sore, too... but it shall pass.Thank goodness the hormones emotionalness is over- getting frustrated because it's 2 am and you're falling asleep feeding the baby and the burp cloth is just out of reach is annoying.
I did do some clothes shopping- Old Navy and Gap online. I have shopping online, but I needed a couple of nursing tops (still figuring out what wardrobe will work nursing, slowly putting all of the clothes together in one place.
I got not only nursing tops but also stuff that buttoned down, including a yellow striped henley that called my name (thanks for that and a dress, Cari!) I will eventually be a rockin' dressed mom, which is my goal :)
