April 12th at 12:13pm Grayson James joined this world! He was a little guy at 7lbs and 13oz, 19 inches long. Recovery has been going exceptionally well, by Friday after the C-Section I was taking Connor to school and running some errands. I am breastfeeding Grayson until the doctors and I deam it necessary to switch to formula. I suffer from an anxiety disorder and depression, and have been off all my medications because of the pregnancy and will stay off them until I discontinue breastfeeding. So feeding into the anxiety of adjusting to a second child, decreased income, helping Connor adjust to not being the only child anymore, and my depression is the pull between nursing and not nursing. basically doing what is best for my child or for me. A decision I am struggling with and am not too proud to let everyone know I am not perfect or supermom.
So Grayson James has made life even brighter and we all love him so much already. I am enjoying getting to know him and how he is drastically different from his big brother. Speaking of Big Brother, he absolutly adores his baby, and does everything he can to help. Yes, we have had our awkard moment with breastfeeding where he tried to help his brother nurse...lol.
Not sure how often I will find time to post on here but I will do my best but Facebook is quick and where I keep updated pictures.
Gman is starting to stir and will be ready to eat, and big bro has picked out his night time book. So back to Mommy duties and maybe a few hours of sleep and a few bites to eat soon.
