Today felt like the first day I was myself again.
Slept in until 1 pm with baby feeding and napping intermittently; Papa was able to wrap and hold baby when he wasn't eating, so Mama got to rest more.
Eating well myself; I lost 30+ pounds in the first 2 weeks of postpartum.
Baby enjoyed watching Mama do yoga today for the first time in forever. It felt fantastic, and I am much stronger than I thought I'd be. No Hanumanasana just yet, but that is my goal.
I can't wait to do backbends and go upside down again!!!
My 3rd degree episiotomy is feeling much better, even with a torn stitch.
Baby is getting bigger and is more vocal and focused. We have a lot of fun with him. He smiles!
So for all these things, and for all of you, we give Thanks.

Beautiful. I am so happy you are getting some rest and activity too. I can only imagine how much love there is in your home right now.
Welcome to this wondrous world of being a mother. I had to lay in bed with my 11 year old last night and sing to him until he fell asleep. Just like I did when he was a baby. He is sick and was missing his father and generally feeling out of control. The love is immeasurable and the personal rewards are too.
Much love to you and your family, Lesley
