Lessons Learned Number Two
Just a couple this week.
- The first time your child sleeps through the night, I promise you, you will not. Ada managed 8 hours twice this week. Each time, I spent the last hour or so just waiting for her to wake up.
- Your two-month old is not the only one who will cry when she gets her vaccines. I definitely teared up yesterday watching Ada get two shots. This is also the reason she slept 8 hours in one go last night.
- Having a coughing fit while nursing is less than desirable. Luke and I have been sick this week. Mine has taken up residence in my throat. I've been up more this week with couging fits than I have with my kiddo. Then last night while I was nursing Ada, I couldn't hold a cough back any more. She popped off and started crying.
- Another mother's tragedy really will make you snuggle your child a little closer. A woman I only know from a Babycenter forum lost her daughter to SIDS this week. It's caused me to snuggle with Ada a little longer at bedtime all week.
